Note on Title:

————

The mourning ceremony went well.

The Phoenix shadow that had disappeared, reappeared and circled over the palace all night.

Lin Shu knew that this was the Phoenix phantom brought by the Empress. It created abnormal celestial phenomena and could build momentum for future major events. Those who have played with people’s hearts, since ancient times, have used this method very skillfully.

At the end of the mourning ceremony, the crowd receded. Seeing that there was nothing more to do, Xiao Lingyang looked around, as if wanting to leave.

Ling Fengxiao said coldly, “You stay.”

Xiao Lingyang immediately looked like a quail held by his neck. He stopped moving, but stemmed his neck: “I won’t stay.”

Ling Fengxiao said, “You’re going back with me.”

Xiao Lingyang lowered his head, but looked up at him. His eyes were sullen and hateful.

He also hesitated for three seconds and replied, “I won’t go with you.”

“Oh?” Ling Fengxiao asked, “What are you going to do?”

Xiao Lingyang: “What do you care about me?”

Ling Fengxiao looked at him with a gloomy voice: “You tell me.”

Xiao Lingyang: “...”

He stood still.

Ling Fengxiao: “Do you understand what you heard?”

Xiao Lingyang: “... Oh.”

Then he leapt up.

Ling Fengxiao gave him a cold look, brushed his sleeves and swept the ground in red. He was gorgeous and graceful to the extreme.

Lin Shu watched Xiao Lingyang darted past Ling Fengxiao and was about to step on the hem of his clothes and trip him.

But even before one foot went down, Ling Fengxiao seemed to have eyes behind him. With a wave of his sleeves, he shook out his invisible Qi and made Xiao Lingyang stumble first.

Lin Shu: “...”

This was their sister-brother relationship.

It was very touching.

At the Wutong court, Ling Fengxiao sat down in the main seat of the hall.

Xiao Lingyang stood under him, his head slightly lowered, and his eyes kept glancing at Lin Shu’s side, as if he had the intention of asking for help.

Lin Shu took two steps back to show that he could not help, and was then pulled by Ling Fengxiao to sit down beside him.

Ling Fengxiao looked at Xiao Lingyang and cast a little spell. The Sound Stone hidden by Xiao Lingyang was fished out from his clothes and floated in the air.

Xiao Lingyang saw this thing exposed and bit his lips.

Ling Fengxiao said, “What do you want to say?”

Xiao Lingyang: “Nothing.”

Seeing that the puffer fish was going to explode and Xiao Lingyang was going to die, Lin Shu quickly coughed gently.

Ling Fengxiao took a few breaths, and his voice was barely calm: “What did you hear?”

Xiao Lingyang was not angry: “I heard you discussing with our mother a plot to usurp the throne!”

“Yes,” Ling Fengxiao said lightly, “What do you think?”

Xiao Lingyang suddenly looked up at him, his eyes flushed, and his voice suddenly raised: “If you want to be the Emperor, just tell me! I ...... Not, it’s not as if I won’t give you, why should you ... ”

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ling Fengxiao.

Ling Fengxiao said coldly, “Get down on your knees.”

Xiao Lingyang looked at him and knelt down.

Ling Fengxiao: “Do you know what’s wrong you have done?”

Xiao Lingyang shouted back, “I’m right!”

Ling Fengxiao looked down at him for a long time and said, “No progress.”

Xiao Lingyang: “What does it matter if I make progress? You forced me to learn so many things for nothing, but you didn’t want me to be the Emperor in the end? “

Ling Fengxiao took the Sound Stone in his hand and lowered his voice: “Do you think I want to tell you off about the throne?”

Xiao Lingyang’s eyes became more red. It seemed that he wanted to cry, and his voice became slightly hoarse: “Otherwise?”

Ling Fengxiao held the thing: “Who told you to put this thing?”

Xiao Lingyang: “I put it myself.”

“Huh?” Ling Fengxiao laughed instead: “How many kilograms does your brain weigh? Don’t I know?”

“I...” Xiao Lingyang said, “You don’t believe it anyway.”

Ling Fengxiao said, “Tell me — if you could really think of this, I under-estimated you.”

Xiao Lingyang said, “I dreamed of it.”

Lin Shu: “...”

Ling Fengxiao: “?”

He curled his lips and smiled deeply: “Come on, tell me. How did you dream about it? When did you dream about it? ”

Xiao Lingyang said, “Three days ago, when I was sleeping, I heard a voice telling me that Phoenix Mountain Villa was harboring evil intentions and wanted to call itself the Emperor to dominate the world. They also wanted... To use Her Royal Highness Fengyang with Phoenix blood as the gun bearer. When I said I didn’t believe it, the voice said that if I didn’t believe it, I could find the truth myself. Then he taught me an array, painting a Sound Stone with snake blood, so that it could hide its breath, and not be discovered. Put it in the Palace, especially where the Emperor and Empress live, and then I... ”

Ling Fengxiao: “Then you did it?”

Xiao Lingyang’s voice was still wronged: “En.”

Lin Shu thought that this brother’s life could not be saved now.

Unexpectedly, Ling Fengxiao was still very calm, he just sighed lightly. Probably, his heart was tired, Lin Shu thought.

Ling Fengxiao drew a Dharma seal. The Phoenix true fire burned on that Sound Stone.

In a little while, a sharp howl escaped from it. The next moment a wisp of purple black smoke was forced out. When it encountered the hot Phoenix true fire, it hissed and dispersed.

As soon as the color of this fog was seen, they knew that it was related to Northern Xia witchcraft.

Even if Xiao Lingyang didn’t know any strategy, he had noticed that something was wrong this time, and his face suddenly turned pale.

“In a dream?” Ling Fengxiao asked him, “Can’t you see through such a clumsy plan of dividing us and such a simple Northern Xia witchcraft? In this case, you didn’t even ask me first and you just made your own decisions... You’re really capable. ”

Xiao Lingyang suddenly implored: “... I was wrong.”

“When the person who casted the spell taught you such a spell, it must not only hide the spiritual power fluctuations on this object, but also transform it...” Ling Fengxiao said: “Perhaps Northern Xia also knows the news that came into your ears.”

Xiao Lingyang’s face instantly turned pale, and sweat even seeped from his forehead.

Ling Fengxiao saw that his expression was not right and his voice sank: “What’s the matter?”

Xiao Lingyang opened his eyes wide and seemed speechless.

“It doesn’t matter,” said Ling Fengxiao. “It’s just that I want to ascend the throne. Even if Northern Xia knows, it’s no big deal.”

“No.” Xiao Lingyang raised his head sharply and looked at him: “The Father Emperor, what the Father Emperor said to me... Was also heard by them?”

Ling Fengxiao: “When did you release this thing?”

Xiao Lingyang: “Three days ago.”

Ling Fengxiao: “What did the Father Emperor say to you?”

Xiao Lingyang pursed his lips, seemingly reluctant to speak.

Ling Fengxiao looked at him as if he was criticizing and seemed to be teaching him at the same time: “Whether you should say it or not, you should say it at this time, and you should make it clear.”

Xiao Lingyang said, “I will tell you, but you can’t hit me.”

Ling Fengxiao: “I won’t hit you.”

Xiao Lingyang: “I don’t believe it.”

Xiao Lingyang looked at Lin Shu again.

Lin Shu: “If he hits you, I will stop him.”

Only then did Xiao Lingyang calm down a little, and said, “The Emperor Father said that after I ascended the throne, according to the custom of our ancestors, I would marry a daughter of the Phoenix Mountain Villa’s direct lineage, and live a long life with dual cultivation.”

Ling Fengxiao: “En.”

Xiao Lingyang continued, “He said again that Phoenix Blood contained great disaster. In the Phoenix bloodline it was extremely difficult to give birth to a son. Even if they gave birth to a boy, ninety-nine percent of them would not survive. But... If by chance the Phoenix bloodline indeed gave birth to a boy and he survived, then he must be killed by all means, otherwise... The dragon vein would be disturbed, the fate of the Great Xia would be in danger, the rivers and mountains would be difficult to overcome, and the world would be ruined. This was the word of mouth from the Emperors of the past dynasties...this was the iron law.”

Lin Shu: “..”

What the Empress didn’t say was sold by Xiao Lingyang.

He looked at Ling Fengxiao and saw the man lowering his eyes. There was a color of reflection in his eyes, and his voice became a lot deeper: “Is there anything else?”

“Also...” Xiao Lingyang swallowed, and looked at his face nervously: “A wise man would be at a loss if he had a thousand worries. If the son of Phoenix’s lineal vein really grew up, he would... Have unparalleled cultivation and would not be able to restrain himself. If that time comes, there is still one other way to help the Imperial family of Great Xia. Deep in the underground palace, behind the wall of the Fifth Heavenly Secret Chamber, there is a mechanism that can only be opened by the blood of Xiao family without Phoenix blood. Inside... There is an ancient weapon called Sun God’s Divine Arrow, which is a rare magic weapon in the world. This arrow is very powerful, but it is not known to the world, especially... When shooting at the Phoenix Blood, it is like the shooting day of Hou Yi. Holding this arrow, regardless of men, women, young and old, regardless of their cultivation level, as long as they have Phoenix blood and are pierced through the heart by this arrow, they would immediately dissipate and their ash would be scattered ... ”

Ling Fengxiao pressed his temple with his right hand: “Take me there, now.”

Xiao Lingyang consciously shut up and led the way.

The Imperial underground palace was tightly guarded as countless treasures were sealed up in it. The Fifth Heavenly Secret Chamber was only one of them. If Xiao Lingyang hadn’t heard from the old Emperor, no one would have known that there were ancient artifacts inside it.

Coming to the wall of the secret room, on an unremarkable table in the corner, among a pile of unremarkable treasures, there is an ordinary lampstand.

The lampstand was sunken and in the shape of a bowl. If you pour shark oil into it and put a candle wick, it could become a bright lamp.

Ling Fengxiao squeezed Xiao Lingyang’s wrist, made a small cut on the vein, and filled the lamp with his blood in a short while.

The wall made a “creak” sound of mechanical rotation, and dust fell on the ceiling. After half a quarter of an hour, the wall separated in the middle, revealing a secret room.

Empty.

There was nothing inside.

There was only a dusty platform in the middle, with fresh tracks on it.

This trace was sharp in the front, straight in the middle and feathered in the tail. It was in the shape of an extremely long arrow.

However, there was only the trace that was left.

Ling Fengxiao stretched out his hand and wiped the almost non-existent falling dust on this trace, and said: “Two hours ago.”

This meant that when Xiao Lingyang was in the main hall, and when he heard his father talking about this divine weapon, someone on the other side took it away according to the location that was being talked about.

Xiao Lingyang: “But only my blood can open...”

Ling Fengxiao looked at him coolly, and then said four words: “Xiao Xuan also can open.”

Xiao Lingyang: “Ah?”

Seeing that Ling Fengxiao didn’t answer, he asked, “Who’s Xiao Xuan?”

“One of your distant cousins.” Ling Fengxiao said, “He is also my distant cousin.”

Xiao Lingyang stepped back incredulously: “Do you have another brother?”

Ling Fengxiao: “Northern Xia.”

Xiao Lingyang: “... Oh.”

Therefore, Xiao Lingyang was eavesdropped by Xiao Xuan, whom they didn’t know when he had sneaked in, and the Sun God’s Divine Arrow that could kill the descendant of Phoenix Blood was taken away by Xiao Xuan.

Why did Xiao Xuan take it? And what would he do with it?

Of course, to kill the people of Phoenix Mountain Villa, especially Ling Fengxiao.

The force of Phoenix Mountain Villa could be said to be the highest combat power of Southern Xia. They would take out the Phoenix Mountain Villa in Southern Xia, just like the loss of the Great Wizard in Northern Xia.

Ling Fengxiao looked at Xiao Lingyang coldly: “Have you learned a lot now?”

Xiao Lingyang: “... a lot.”

“Do you realize what you have done wrong now?”

Xiao Lingyang: “... I got it.”

“Such a clumsy tactic, you have the face to use it... And someone really fell for it.” Ling Fengxiao said, “The Great Judge of the Sliding World”

Lin Shu wanted to laugh.

He has a great reputation as Brother Shao. Unexpectedly, the two out of three brothers scrambled to make trouble.

Xiao Lingyang asked carefully: “Are you... In danger?”

“Yes.” Ling Fengxiao said.

Xiao Lingyang shrank in fright.

Ling Fengxiao walked outside and said lightly, “It is trivial, just counter the soldiers with arms.”

Xiao Lingyang followed carefully.

Ling Fengxiao walked out of the chamber door with Lin Shu, and Xiao Lingyang was about to step out.

Bang! Clang!

The heavy iron door slammed shut.

Xiao Lingyang was dazed.

Ling Fengxiao slowly locked the door and made a barrier: “But if I let you do something outside, I will really be in danger.”

Xiao Lingyang beat the door in despair: “Sister!”

Ling Fengxiao was unmoved and turned to go.

Xiao Lingyang was very anxious and said, “I have another thing to ask you!”

Ling Fengxiao looked back and said, “What is it?”

Xiao Lingyang pulled the iron fence on the door and said, “Are you a man or a woman?”

Ling fengxiao: “What do you think?”

“I didn’t hear clearly...” Xiao Lingyang said, “I don’t think it’s possible. Is the Empress confused and talking nonsense...”

Ling Fengxiao looked at him for a while, took out the Sound Stone and threw it in through the iron fence: “Draw a small rune with your blood, which can be replayed.”

Then, ignoring Xiao Lingyang who was banging the door, Lin Shu and Leng Fengxiao left from the place.

Xiao Lingyang gave up calling Ling Fengxiao for help and turned to Lin Shu: “Lin Shu save me! Lin Shu... Brother-in-law! ”

It was no use.

His helpless cry gradually became smaller as they went away.

The underground Palace guards looked at each other.

Lin Shu could already imagine what these guards were thinking.

His Majesty’s bones weren’t even cold yet, so why did Her Royal Highness Fengyang put the prince under house arrest?

The situation was changeable and intriguing. Who was the flower of the throne of Southern xia?

Seeing what we shouldn’t see, are we about to be put to death?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wailed constantly. Should they be loyal to the Crown Prince, rescue him, and gain the merits of the Imperial palace, or should they go and block his mouth to flatter Her Royal Highness Fengyang?

But Ling Fengxiao ignored them and went straight out of the underground Palace.

But just as they got out of the underground Palace, he was hit by a blue bird.

It was the familiar “scent-seeker”.

This bird was Xiao Xuan’s means of contacting the two of them in this way. It could distinguish the incense/perfume scent on Ling Fengxiao. Last time, Xiao Xuan contacted them and invited them to Northern Xia, creating an opportunity to kill the Great Wizard.

Ling Fengxiao untied the letter box from the bird’s leg, opened the letter and saw Xiao Xuan’s handwriting.

The letter started with “Dan Zhu, Yu Su,

It’s been fifteen nights since I have not seen the two beauties. I am hoping you both are safe and sound. I have thought about you day and night and miss you both every moment.

The two girls must be outsiders. I inquired about you both in many places in Southern Xia, but I didn’t find such two peerless beauties in the world. The two beauties, out of justice, had helped me get rid of the Great Wizard. I am very grateful and will repay you both. However, my father has decided to be at odds with Southern Xia, so I can only reluctantly and temporarily draw boundaries between myself and you girls. When we meet each other on the battlefield, there will be no affection as the sword has no eyes. The two girls must protect themselves and not throw themselves into the shadow of the sword. In the days to come, the world will be unsettled, and if they have nowhere to go, the two beauties can come and join me. In the peaceful and prosperous world, the three of us will spend time together again, among the flowers under the moon...”

Before Lin Shu could see that Xiao Xuan was talking about something shameless, Ling Fengxiao tore up the letter.

“When we meet on the battlefield, the sword has no eyes?” Ling Fengxiao curled his lips and smiled dangerously: “No, if I and my army were to go North tomorrow, I would catch him and let him accompany Xiao Lingyang.”

Lin Shu thought it was feasible.
