Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Phew…”
Xia Bingguang took a deep breath and felt much better. He looked at Liu Sanniang gratefully and said, “Thank… thank you…”
It was difficult for Xia Bingguang to speak, but once the blood clot was removed, he would get better and better.
Liu Sanniang retracted her hand. “Let’s go take a look at Star Reaching Tower first.”
Xia Bingguang quickly nodded. He could not speak with ease yet, but at this moment, even without him saying it, everyone understood his meaning.
Xian Fei smiled at Liu Sanniang. “I knew with Miss Liu around, there’s nothing that can’t be solved.”
Su Yanxue also smiled at Liu Sanniang. “I was quite worried about His Majesty, but with Miss Liu around, I’m relieved.”
Being ignored, Daoist Yun Guan frowned. He looked at Liu Sanniang with a cold gaze and said somewhat sarcastically, “Miss Liu is indeed impressive.”
Xian Fei and the others’ trust in Liu Sanniang was sincere, and so was their praise.
However, Daoist Yun Guan’s words made people feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
Other than Liu Sanniang, Xia Bingguang did not have a good impression of the other psychics. If not for the fact that it was still difficult to talk, he would have berated Daoist Yun Guan.
He glanced at Daoist Yun Guan and looked away. He stood up and walked out.
Xian Fei glanced at Daoist Yun Guan and said, “You’re right. Everyone who has seen Miss Liu’s ability will be impressed.”
She pretended not to understand the sarcastic undertone in his words.
Daoist Yun Guan frowned. The disciple behind him said in a low voice, “Shifu, don’t take it to heart. How can a small fry like her compare to you?”
If not for the change in the fate of the Xia Dynasty, Daoist Yun Guan would not even want to come out. He used to be treated with great respect by the emperor, but now, the emperor treated him with a cold attitude. Daoist Yun Guan naturally felt uncomfortable. He looked at Xia Bingguang’s back and his eyes darkened.
The fate of the dynasty was no small matter. He swore he would make Xia Bingguang regret treating him coldly today.
When Xia Bingguang arrived at Star Reaching Tower, looking at the dilapidated ruins, Xia Bingguang felt his heart bleed.
However, the surroundings were not affected at all. Other than Star Reaching Tower, everything else was fine.
Xia Bingguang wobbled and tears streamed down his face.
Seeing these ruins with their own eyes, Xian Fei and the others’ eyes turned red.
Daoist Yun Guan looked at the ruins of Star Reaching Tower and then looked at Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, did you see anything?”
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “The fate of this dynasty is dissipating.”
Daoist Yun Guan raised his hand and stroked the horsetail whisk. “That’s right. The fate of the Xia Dynasty is dissipating. Star Reaching Tower collapsed and smashed into the lifeline of the country. Under the Star Reaching Tower, the dragon vein that has been supporting the Xia Dynasty is on the verge of its death.”
Xia Bingguang spat out a mouthful of blood and said with difficulty, “Can we… save it?”
Daoist Yun Guan looked at Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, do you have a way to solve it?”
Liu Sanniang looked at the ruins and her expression changed. She said calmly, “Finding the real empress can solve this crisis.”
Daoist Yun Guan frowned. “Miss Liu, you are right, but not entirely.”
He continued with a snort, “This disaster was brought by you because you offended the Cloud Breaking Sect. Do you admit it?”
Daoist Yun Guan was aggressive, instantly making people feel like a fight was about to break out.
Everyone could not help but look at Liu Sanniang.
Liu Sanniang looked at Daoist Yun Guan indifferently and said, “I do.”
Daoist Yun Guan smiled coldly. “Miss, you’re straightforward. Since you admit it, you should take responsibility for your actions.”
Everyone could feel that Daoist Yun Guan was targeting Liu Sanniang. Su Yanxue couldn’t help but frown. Daoist Yun Guan had never cared about the matters in the secular world and had no grudge against Liu Sanniang. Why was he targeting her like this?
Daoist Yun Guan seemed to understand what people were thinking and said calmly, “I don’t care who Miss Liu is, but if she endangers the world, she will be my enemy.”
After saying that, Daoist Yun Guan pointed at Star Reaching Tower. “Miss, can you hear its wail? Its collapse was all caused by you. Do you feel guilty?”
“Finding the real empress can indeed reverse the situation. The combination of the dragon and the phoenix can nurture the fate of the dynasty again, but how much time does the Xia Dynasty have to wait until the empress is found? However, there’s another way that works. Miss Liu is the chosen one. Sacrificing her can also prevent the downfall of the dynasty.”
After saying that, Daoist Yun Guan’s eyes darkened as he looked at Liu Sanniang. “I’m afraid that Miss Liu won’t be unwilling to sacrifice herself to save the Xia dynasty.”
Xia Bingguang’s heart skipped a beat. He opened his mouth anxiously and stuttered, “1,1, will confer the title of empress to Noble Consort Xian Fei.”
Xian Fei also knelt down. “I’m willing to do anything for my country, even if it means giving up my life.”
Daoist Yun Guan smiled faintly. He looked at Xian Fei and said, “Your Highness, you are a blessed person, but you can’t be the phoenix. The true phoenix is still around and you can’t replace her.”
Xian Fei frowned. She was already the most respected woman in the world, but it did not change the fact that she was not the empress.
Xia Bingguang said anxiously, “Find, find the empress…”
The real empress was still in the world. Liu Sanniang could even find Xia Hongming previously, so it was definitely possible for her to find the real empress.
Daoist Yun Guan said calmly, “I’m afraid the people of the Xia Dynasty can’t wait that long. If we don’t save the situation in time, I’m afraid there will be a huge disaster. Miss Liu, you should understand what this means, right?”
Every word Daoist Yun Guan said was aimed at Liu Sanniang. He was trying to pin the blame of everything on Liu Sanniang.
Daoist Yun Guan looked at Xia Bingguang and nodded slightly. “I haven’t been involved in worldly matters for many years, but I still hope that the country will be safe and prosperous.”
After saying that, Daoist Yun Guan turned around and left with his disciples. He had made everything clear. So for what Liu Sanniang would choose to do, he didn’t care..
