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

The man in red slightly raised his straight eyebrows. What an interesting answer! She was as intriguing as three years ago.

“It doesn’t indeed but I really want to know the answer.”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi knitted her eyebrows. What on earth did he want to do? He could break into her room without disturbing any phoenix guard. Apart from that, he had been here for so long and Phoenix Five still didn’t appear. It was evident that this man was really unfathomably capable.

“Answer me.” His sinister voice was a bit impatient.

“Yes,” Duanmu Xi answered without hesitation.

The man in red laughed. His laughter was as enchanting as manjusaka.

“Keep my name in mind. Jun Wuxie…” His sinister voice was still lingering around her ears but he had disappeared.

Duanmu Xi blinked her eyes. Was she dreaming?

“Phoenix Five,” Duanmu Xi summoned across the air.

“Your Highness.” Hearing the summon, Phoenix Five immediately appeared before Duanmu Xi.

Seeing Phoenix Five was safe, Duanmu Xi let out a sigh of relief and waved her hand, “Nothing. You can leave now.”

Phoenix Five took a look at Duanmu Xi with confusion, said okay and then disappeared in the room.

The next day, Duanmu Xi looked at Phoenix Five next to her and suddenly asked, “Were you always there all the time last night?”

Phoenix Five was slightly taken aback. What did Her Highness mean? Of course she was there all the time! She was Her Highness’s secret guard. Protecting Her Highness was her only duty.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Duanmu Xi pondered with a frown. Since Phoenix Five was always there, it was impossible that she would take no action if she saw any stranger in Duanmu Xi’s room. There was only one possibility. That was, she didn’t know Jun Wuxie had appeared in the room at all.

In this case, Jun Wuxie’s cultivation level was high beyond her expectations. Thinking of his fabulous face, Duanmu Xi wore a sinister smile. Maybe he was not a human at all.

…

At night, Duanmu Xi was lying on the arhat bed sleepless. She couldn’t understand why she couldn’t fall asleep even though she was exhausted.

The fluctuation in the air alarmed Duanmu Xi. She directly jumped off the arhat bed, looking at the shadow not far away with her dark purple eyes.

“Who is that?” It was another person who could break into her room without disturbing any phoenix guard. There were so many capable masters hidden in Zhongzhou! It seemed that she must learn about formations from her second master as soon as possible. Otherwise, these people would just break into her room without hindrance.

A woman in black walked out of the shadow. As the moonlight shone on her beautiful face, her face looked somewhat more apathetic.

“It’s you?” Seeing that expressionless and yet exceedingly beautiful face, Duanmu Xi was a bit surprised. Why did this woman come here?

“May I ask why you pay me a visit late at night?” Duanmu Xi had met her twice and had a good impression of her.

“I’m here to take you as my disciple,” the woman explained her intent of coming briefly.

What was going on? Why did so many people all target her? “I’ve already…”

“I know you have omni property spiritual roots.” She dropped the bombshell unhurriedly.

Duanmu Xi was astonished. She knew that the two masters couldn’t tell the woman about that. How on earth did the woman know it then?

“As long as you acknowledge me as your master, I will let you own the ability.”

The ability to see through other people’s spiritual root status was quite attractive to her but it didn’t mean that she would acknowledge this woman as her master.

“I can teach you ice and water spiritual magic,” the woman in black hedged and said, “As far as I know, Situ Kong has wood, fire and earth spiritual roots while Nalan Xi has wind and thunder spiritual roots. Therefore, as to ice and water spiritual magic, I can teach you then.”

Duanmu Xi was dumbfounded. This woman was so terrifying. She thought her cultivation level was still too low so her spiritual roots were seen through by the woman. Unexpectedly, the woman could even see through the two masters’ unfathomably high cultivation level.

“I cannot acknowledge you as my master unless it is approved by my two masters.”

The woman in black heard Duanmu Xi’s reply and stayed quiet for a while before saying, “I will talk to Situ Kong and Nalan Xi myself and then come to find you tomorrow night,” after saying that, she directly disappeared before Duanmu Xi.

Duanmu Xi blinked her eyes and lay back on the arhat bed. She was not surprised by these capable people’s coming and going freely.

The next early morning, Situ Kong and Nalan Xi both came to Wisteria Yard and agreed with Duanmu Xi to acknowledge Mei Luo as her master.

Seeing the two masters’ miserable looks, Duanmu Xi tried her best to hold back laughter. How could they look so pitiful? She didn’t expect that the senior could be so capable that the two masters were so seriously beaten. It was true that one couldn’t judge a book by its cover.

Phoenix Five standing behind Duanmu Xi was not that tolerant. Seeing the weird looks of Situ Kong and Nalan Xi, she laughed breathlessly.

“Haha… Haha… You two look so…unprecedentedly special!”

Faced with Phoenix Five’s merciless scorn, Situ Kong and Nalan Xi both felt very mortified.

“Old chap. You, you look at my injuries. Did you deliberately take the opportunity to get even with me?” Situ Kong stamped with rage first. With his left eye bruised, his left cheek was red and swollen. He couldn’t even talk clearly. Obviously, a few teeth of his were knocked off on the left side.

Nalan Xi was anxious to hear that. Situ Kong was good at filing a complaint first. Nalan Xi hurriedly talked back, “Old chap, you were no better. Look at my face. Are my injuries less serious?”

Nalan Xi also looked weird now. Although he also had a black eye, his condition was the opposite of that of Situ Kong. His right eye was bruised and his right cheek was swollen with several teeth on the right side knocked off too. The two old men looked like twins so much.

Listening to Situ Kong and Nalan Xi arguing, Duanmu Xi was a bit confused, “Your injuries were not caused by Elder Mei?”

“Yes.”

“Yes.” This time, their answers were the same.

Duanmu Xi was perplexed. Didn’t they complain about each other’s hitting too seriously? Why did they say the injuries were caused by Elder Mei now? What on earth had happened?

Seeing Duanmu Xi’s confused look, Nalan Xi heaved a sigh, “It was Elder Mei who made us beat each other.” He didn’t know there should be such a master in Shengjin Academy.

“Anyway, it is too complicated. Xi, we have no problem with you acknowledging her as your master.” Thinking of that woman’s formidable means, Situ Kong still had a lingering fear. He shouldn’t mess with such a woman anymore.

Seeing the two masters filled with emotional sighs, Duanmu Xi could imagine how awesome Elder Mei was.

At night, Duanmu Xi didn’t sleep. She was waiting for Mei Luo.

At the same time as last night, Duanmu Xi stared at the woman in black who suddenly showed up before her. How on earth did the woman make the two masters beat each other?

“You want to know how I made them beat each other?” She laid bare Duanmu Xi’s thoughts directly.

Could it be that she could not only see through other people’s spiritual root status but also read their minds?

“I cannot read others’ minds.”

This was so unbelievable. Duanmu Xi couldn’t help suspecting whether she had told what she was thinking about.

“Acknowledge me as your master.” Mei Luo didn’t forget why she was here.

Duanmu Xi was dazed and then knelt on the ground, “Third Master, greetings.”

“Starting from today, you will be my disciple. Rise.”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi stood up and felt surprised to see the smile on Mei Luo’s face that hadn’t disappeared. What a beautiful smile! She suddenly felt such a cold look was not suitable for Mei Luo at all.

“This is a gift for you.”

Somehow, Duanmu Xi had a pure white flute in her hand. Glowing with faint white light all over, it felt as if being made of ice, which was smoking. Actually, it was made of white jade, crystalline and beautiful. She liked this kind of purity.

“The Bingyou Jade Flute is a kind of magic weapon. You need to make it acknowledge you as the owner by dripping your blood on it.”

Bingyou was a good name. Duanmu Xi dripped a drop of blood on Bingyou as told. It immediately shook restlessly and gave off a streak of dazzling white light.

It felt so familiar and reminded her of the past…

“Xi, the crystal ball is the token of the masters of the Duanmu Family of past ages as well as the identity symbol of the master. It can not only show you the past and the future but also serve as your carry-on space. Whether the thing is lively or not, it can be placed into the crystal ball. I’ll pass it down to you now. Make it acknowledge you as the owner then,” Duanmu Cang, holding the crystal ball, introduced its functions to Duanmu Xi.

Duanmu Xi took the crystal ball seriously and dripped a drop of blood on the crystal ball. Instantly, the crystal ball gave off dazzling blue light and appeared rather restless. After Duanmu Xi released her spiritual power coercion, the crystal ball finally quieted down.

She thought of her grandpa again…

Duanmu Xi let out her spiritual power. Faced with a rush of powerful coercion, Bingyou finally became quiet. It rolled a bit in Duanmu Xi’s hand, seeming to act cute before her. It was quite similar to her crystal ball. Back then, the crystal ball also rubbed against her palm and seemed to be pleasing her.

“Thank you, Third Master. I like Bingyou very much.”

“I’m glad that you like it. Starting from tonight, I will teach you all I’ve learned in my whole life so I will come here at this time every night.”

“Thank you, Third Master. I will work hard.”

“Girl, you’ve got a guest. I will come here tomorrow night.” As her voice faded away, she also disappeared.

A guest? Who was that? The man in red again?

While she was contemplating, Duanmu Xi suddenly felt she was hugged from behind by a pair of hands. She was startled and by instinct wanted to break free from that man.

“Xi.” A dry and husky voice full of tender feelings and affection sounded in Duanmu Xi’s ears.

Duanmu Xi turned around and said in surprise, “You are back…”

He pressed his hot lips against hers, which stopped her from finishing talking. His passionate tongue invaded into her mouth and twisted with hers wildly.

“Emm… Emm…” The sudden kiss was so masterful and wild that Duanmu Xi couldn’t stand it at all. She kept pushing his beefy chest, trying to calm him down. However, she had no idea that her subconscious reaction directly kindled the fire in Xuanyuan Mo’s heart.

Xuanyuan Mo couldn’t help groaning. Xi could always drive him nuts.

Xuanyuan Mo directly carried Duanmu Xi in his arms and walked to the bed.
