Zhu Royal Palace

A muscular man wearing a red robe with golden stripes, and a golden crown on his head, sat on the throne seat where Zhu Yuhe usually sat when facing the people of the Zhu Kingdom. The man’s gaze was as sharp as vermilion’s eyes, and he was the Emperor of the Vermilion Empire, Hong Chen. .𝙘𝙤𝙢

“How long will you continue to reject me, Zhu Yuhe? Should I force you to become my concubine? Or should I destroy this Zhu Kingdom first?” Hong Chen asked harshly, as he had run out of patience with Zhu Yuhe. He was very arrogant because he was the Emperor of the southern continent, and he was also the strongest person in the southern continent, but Zhu Yuhe constantly stepped on his pride by refusing to be his concubine.

Zhu Yuhe’s face darkened, and her expression was very ugly, when she heard Hong Chen’s threat, she herself realized that Hong Chen would definitely suppress her strongly one day. But she didn’t expect that Hong Chen would threaten her like that, and he even wanted to destroy the Zhu Kingdom built by her ancestors.

Seeing that Zhu Yuhe did not answer him, then Hong Chen stood up from the throne, and walked out with his two soldiers, as he said. “I am giving you one last chance, Zhu Yuhe. If within a month you are still not willing to become my concubine, then I will definitely force you to become my concubine, and I will also destroy this Zhu Kingdom.”

After he said that, Hong Chen immediately left Zhu Palace, and left Zhu Yuhe restless.

Zhou Xuan immediately appeared behind Zhu Yuhe, and she anxiously asked her. “What are you going to do now, Yuhe? It seems that Hong Chen has run out of patience with you, and I am sure that he will definitely do what he said just now.”

“Sister Xuan, your family is in the western continent, right?” Zhu Yuhe asked weakly, she herself felt helpless by Hong Chen’s threat, although her current cultivation was not far from Hong Chen’s, but if they opened a war then the Zhu Kingdom would definitely perish, because their overall strength was not comparable to the Vermilion Empire.

“That’s right, Yuhe. My family is indeed in the western continent, and they live in the Zhou Kingdom.” Zhou Xuan replied with a nod, then she asked in confusion. “But why are you asking this, Yuhe?”

Zhu Yuhe didn’t answer Zhou Xuan right away, she seemed to be seriously thinking about something, before she finally took a deep breath, and said. “I want you to take Honglian to the Zhou Kingdom, Sister Xuan. And I ask you to protect her there, because I don’t want anything to happen to her.”

Zhu Yuhe herself could not imagine what would happen in a month, and she did not want her daughter to become a victim of Hong Chen’s ambition. Even if the Zhu Kingdom was destroyed by Hong Chen, she would not regret it too much. But if something bad happened to her daughter, then she would definitely regret it for the rest of her life, because her daughter was the last descendant of the Zhu Family.

“Are you sure you want to send Honglian there, Yuhe? Because the situation in the Zhou Kingdom itself is not very good, and their conditions are far from the Zhu Kingdom.” Zhou Xuan understood Zhu Yuhe’s feelings, but she was not sure that Zhu Honglian could part with Zhu Yuhe. Moreover, she deeply understands the situation of the Zhou Kingdom, that is the reason why she prefers to stay in the Zhu Kingdom, even though she herself is the First Princess of the Zhou Kingdom.

Just as Zhu Yuhe was about to answer Zhou Xuan’s question, Xia Tian suddenly appeared in front of them. Seeing Zhu Yuhe’s gloomy expression, he then asked with a raised eyebrow. “What happened to you, Yuhe? Why does your expression look so ugly?”

Somehow, Xia Tian could sense the feelings of his partners, even though they weren’t around him. And he could sense Zhu Yuhe’s fluctuating mood, which was why he had come to see her directly from the Western Forest.

Zhu Yuhe just looked at him with complicated feelings, and didn’t say anything to him, as she was at a loss as to how to tell Xia Tian about Hong Chen’s threat. Even though she knew Xia Tian was the reincarnation of a very strong person in the past, but the current him was not the same as he was in the past, and currently he was still too weak to help her, so as much as possible Zhu Yuhe did not want to involve him in her troubles.

“Answer my question, Yuhe.” Xia Tian said slightly snapping at her, he then grabbed Zhu Yuhe’s shoulders tightly, and looked at her seriously. “Do you believe me, Yuhe?”

Zhu Yuhe looked at him, and her body seemed to tremble from his attitude, then she replied with a stutter. “I do… I do believe in you, Tian. But-”

“If you really believe me, then tell me what happened to you, Yuhe.” He said decisively, even Zhou Xuan was amazed at Xia Tian’s decisiveness.

Zhu Yuhe then took a deep breath, and told Xia Tian everything, especially about Hong Chen’s threats to her. She also stated her intention to send Zhu Honglian to the western continent, so that Zhu Honglian would not get involved in her fight with Hong Chen.

Xia Tian became furious hearing Zhu Yuhe’s story, he didn’t expect Hong Chen to go to such a degree. It made his body emit an extremely strong killing intent, Zhu Yuhe and Zhou Xuan who were next to Xia Tian, they were suffocated by his killing intent.

[Stop it, Master! Your killing intent suffocated them.] Alice shouted at him, as Zhu Yuhe and Zhou Xuan were suppressed by his killing intent.

‘His killing intent is absolutely insane, not even Hong Chen can emit a killing intent as strong as him.’ Zhou Xuan said in her heart as zhe tried to catch her breath.

Xia Tian then calmed himself down, and immediately retracted his killing intent. “You can send Honglian to the Jade Pearl Sect, Yuhe. I’ll talk to Fan Youling later, then delegate the royal affairs to your confidant, and you just need to focus on cultivating in my space for the next month.”

He then took out a piece of paper, and wrote down some of the herbs he needed, and handed them to Zhou Xuan. “Gather these herbs as soon as possible, Zhou Xuan. After that I will make pills for Yuhe, and with these pills her strength will definitely increase a lot.”

Zhu Yuhe and Zhou Xuan were dumbfounded by his order, they felt that Xia Tian was very confident, that they could defeat Hong Chen later.

“Just a mere human Emperor dares to be arrogant!” Xia Tian cursed coldly, and his gaze was cold. “You better move quickly, and do as I say, Zhou Xuan. In a month, we will teach that trash emperor a lesson, and I will make him unable to forget it until he dies.”

After that, Xia Tian didn’t say anything else, and immediately used his Void Breaking Step to return to Xia Manor.

“Just a mere human Emperor, he said.” Zhou Xuan said with a wry smile, she then turned to Zhu Yuhe who was still stunned by Xia Tian’s decisiveness. “He looks very serious, Yuhe. His decisiveness, arrogance, and courage far exceed anyone I know, even his killing intent is truly terrifying.”

Zhu Yuhe sighed heavily, but she had already made up her mind, then she said to Zhou Xuan. “I chose to gamble with him, Sister Xuan. It seems that war is inevitable, and I will go into seclusion with him this month, so please gather all the herbs he asks for as soon as possible.”

“Don’t worry, I will collect all the herbs as soon as possible.” Zhou Xuan immediately disappeared after saying that.

Since Xia Tian had informed him via voice transmission that the Jade Pearl Sect elder was currently staying at Xia Manor, Zhu Yuhe immediately went to her daughter’s room, as she intended to take Zhu Honglian to Xia Manor directly. When Zhu Yuhe arrived at her daughter’s room, she immediately explained everything to Zhu Honglian.

At first, Zhu Honglian was unwilling to leave her mother, but she eventually gave in to her mother’s insistence.
