Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King

“You…”

Xuanyuan Lie was rendered speechless by Xuanyuan Mo’s reply. He took a few deep breaths and slightly calmed himself down.

“What’s good about that total wreck…”

“She is not a total wreck.”

Xuanyuan Mo frowned and gave off a cold air instantly.

He didn’t want to hear anyone insult Xi, not even his father.

“Good. Very good…”

Xuanyuan Lie was lost for words in fury.

“I’ll go back to my mansion if nothing else.”

Xuanyuan Mo couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to Xuanyuan Lie anymore. He turned around and wanted to leave.

Xuanyuan Lie got anxious and yelled, “So what if you love her? Do you really want to marry into the Zhuque Empire?”

Xuanyuan Mo didn’t look back but stopped.

“If that’s what she wants, I’ll do it then.”

“Do you forget your mother? Do you want to follow her example? Duanmu Xi will ascend the throne in the future. Will she only have one husband without anyone else? Can you stand serving the same wife with others?”

Xuanyuan Mo tensed.

The clan of snow wolves was faithful in love. They only accepted monogamy.

“No, but she is not you. I trust her.”

After saying that, Xuanyuan Mo left decisively.

His cold words directly hurt Xuanyuan Lie’s heart. He staggered and directly slumped on the throne.

He knew he was sorry for Xuanyuan Mo and his mother. And he was trying his best to make amends but who gave him the chance?

In the Le’an Palace.

“Is that brat back to the palace?”

Xuanyuan Lie’s empress Guo Hui’er was thumping the table with a fierce facial expression now.

“Yes, Your Majesty. He was summoned by His Majesty into the imperial study the moment he returned to the imperial palace.”

Consort Shu, Xu Wanrou had a glint of jealousy flashing across her enchanting face.

“That brat is really lucky. He could still survive from that.”

Guo Hui’er narrowed her phoenix eyes and then said with a sinister smile, “It is even better. He was often not in the imperial palace, leaving us no chances to deal with him. Now that he is back in the capital, we can find a chance to get rid of him anyway.”

Consort Shu immediately gave a coquettish smile, “Your Majesty is so wise.”

“Leave.”

Guo Hui’er glanced at Consort Shu and greeted her flattery with scorn.

“Yes, I’m leaving now.”

Consort Shu immediately rose to curtsy to Guo Hui’er and got out of the palace.

The moment she left the Le’an Palace, Consort Shu was no more humble, her pretty face full of scorn.

She was the emperor’s favorite consort before. If it weren’t for Noble Consort Xue’s incident, which made the emperor no longer interested in the harem, she wouldn’t need to fawn on the wicked woman as the empress.

Humph. The empress wouldn’t live better anyway. She also had to spend her nights alone.

…

In Flame Tower, Duanmu Xi was continuously absorbing and digesting the fire spiritual power.

As she cultivated, her body gleamed with dazzling red light once in a while.

“Argh…”

After a beam of red light showed up, Duanmu Xi opened her eyes.

Surprisingly, she broke through the realm of Fire Spiritual Knight and got promoted to a Fire Spiritual Master.

The speed was too stunning. It would take her at least a few years to get leveled up to Fire Spiritual Master from Fire Spiritual Knight if she was outside, whereas in here, it only took her one month.

Duanmu Xi looked around and found that the space where she stayed was changed. The space was obviously smaller and the fire spiritual power got purer.

Would the space be upgraded every time she got leveled up?

Duanmu Xi felt delighted and immediately closed her eyes to continue cultivating.

Time fleeted as if the shooting star flashed across the sky.

Duanmu Xi stayed in Flame Tower without attention to the time. She didn’t know how long she had stayed in here. All she could notice was that her white clothes got shorter on her, her flat bosoms bigger and her hair much longer than the day when she just got in here.

Now, she was a level-nine Fire Spiritual Emperor. Since she had stayed here for such a long time, her parents must be worried!

And Snow too…

In Prince Zhan’s mansion in the Baihu Empire.

Xuanyuan Mo stood by the window in a black cloak, staring at the snowy scene and lost in thought.

He was 20 years old. Now, he became a mature man, who was taller, more handsome and colder.

It had been three years since he was back in the Baihu Empire. He still didn’t hear anything from Xi and couldn’t help wondering how she was doing now.

He really missed her so much…

“Your Highness.”

Lishang came in from outside and bowed to him.

Lishang was a snow wolf sent by Sir Snow to look after Xuanyuan Mo.

“What’s the matter?”

Xuanyuan Mo didn’t look back and still stared at the snowy view outside.

Lishang lowered his eyes, “His Majesty has another ten beauties sent here.”

“Throw them out.”

He uttered in a cold voice.

“Yes.”

Lishang bent down with a nod, not surprised at all.

Every year during the past three years, the emperor would hold a princess consort selection for Prince Zhan but the latter just never attended. And all the beauties sent by the emperor were thrown out under the prince’s order without exception.

Lishang was really confused about why so many women would still fall for such an unromantic prince who had no compassion for womanhood. Even his sister Liqing also loved the prince.

Lishang seemed to think of something and then said, “How to deal with the supplements sent by Her Majesty the Empress?”

Xuanyuan Mo frowned. What was wrong with that woman?

Supplements?

Did she really take him as a three-year-old?

“Let Yu Ying take them to my father for disposal.”

“Yes.” Lishang bowed himself out.

…

After three years, nothing happened to the Zhuque Empire on the surface but actually, a tempest was brewing.

Duanmu Shuang was conspiring in secret with Zhuge Weiming, the Prince Regent of the Xuanwu Empire, to rise in rebellion from within with forces from outside.

In the Zhuque Hall.

Duanmu Xue, sitting on the throne, looked down at the officials and officers.

“My beloved officials and officers, the Xuanwu Empire has invaded our border multiple times. The other day, I received urgent news from the northwest frontier, saying that the general of the Xuanwu Empire led 300,000 soldiers to invade the border of the northwest with the intent of occupying our land. Now that a large enemy force is bearing down upon the border, do you have any solution?”

The officials and officers fell into silence. After a while, General Si Ruxu stepped forward and saluted Duanmu Xue.

“Your Majesty, the Xuanwu Empire dare invade our northwest frontier. They must have overestimated themselves. I would love to lead an army to oppress them and defend our state’s dignity.”

Princess Rui, Duanmu Fei also took a step forward.

“I would love to lead the army too.”

Duanmu Xue nodded at the two of them.

“Since you are so devoted to the state and the people, I shall appoint Princess Rui as Grand Marshal of the Cavalries and General Si as Bulwark General-in-chief, who will lead 200,000 soldiers to oppress the enemies in the northwest and secure our homeland!”

“As you command. Thank you, Your Majesty.”

“As you command. Thank you, Your Majesty.” The two of them knelt and accepted the order.

Si Ruxu felt depressed. As expected, the empress didn’t trust her as before. Now that Princess Rui was appointed as the marshal, she had to listen to Princess Rui in the barracks.

Alas. It was her fault. She shouldn’t have intended to curry favor with Princess Jing. Now…

“Love live Your Majesty.” All the officials and officers knelt.

Duanmu Shuang’s mouth curved into a sneer.

“Duanmu Xue, this time, Duanmu Fei and Si Ruxu are not by your side. How are you going to defend against my army of 100,000 soldiers?” Duanmu Shuang thought.
