Novel Full Chapter 1386 - Taking Everyone's Breath Away
Chapter 1386: Taking Everyone’s Breath Away
23 years ago, Clan Head Yuan Ming had stolen Jun Xiqing away and she had eventually ended up in the Jun Family.
Jun Xiqing was the next Jiu You Holy Lady. Her blood had special properties and she knew the art of wolf taming, which was why the Jun Family, who was undergoing political instability at that time, put all their hopes on her. This was also the secret that Yuan Ming had on them, which was the reason why Jun Xiyan had been doing all these for him.
The two of them were working with each other and also using each other at the same time. There was no genuine trust and they constantly suspected and kept an eye on each other as well. Now that Jun Xiyan was about to become President, it was natural that they would want to get rid of Yuan Ming.
But who was Yuan Ming? He was an old player of this game and had already seen Jun Xiyan’s true intentions from the start. This fallout was not something unexpected.
Twisting her head to look at him, Jun Xiyan snapped waspishly, “Are you threatening me?”
A chuckle left his lips. “So what if I am?”
“You!”
As the two of them bared their fangs against each other, a set of light footsteps approached them. Someone was coming.
The two of them immediately put their guard up and lifted their head to look. A beautiful, delicate figure approached them. It was Jun Xiqing.
She was in a white chiffon dress and as the night breeze blew, her dress swayed and her raven-black hair flowed gracefully down her shoulders. She was radiant against the backdrop of the night.
Another set of footsteps followed behind. Jun Xiqing was here with Ping Ping.
Not only that, but she also didn’t have her veil on and her face was as beautiful as jade.
“Look, Yuan Ming, are you going to continue pushing the blame?” Jun Xiyan was about to faint with anger.
As Yuan Ming’s gaze landed on Jun Xiqing’s small face, he quickly narrowed his eyes. He scolded Jun Xiyan angrily. “You idiot, that’s face-changing magic. We’ve been tricked!”
What?
Jun Xiyan’s heart pounded. An ominous feeling crept into her heart.
At this moment, Jun Xiqing lifted her hands and showed them what she was holding.
A pen recorder.
Jun Xiyan’s face contorted as she quickly ran forward. “Hand me that pen!”
The smile Jun Xiqing’s face reached her eyes as she took two steps back to the riverside. The night breeze continued swaying her skirt as it made ripples in the water, elegant and delicate.
“Qingqing, hand that to me. I’m your sister. Did you forget that you’ve been raised by the Jun Family for 23 years? You won’t harm me, right?”
Bright eyes looked at her. Plop. Jun Xiqing threw the pen recorder behind her.
With a splash, it landed into the river and vanished.
Jun Xiyan quickly wiped the pitiful look off her face and shouted at Yuan Ming, “Yuan Ming, what are you waiting for? Kill her!”
“Jun Xiyan, you swine!”
At this moment, someone gave an angry roar.
Jun Xiyan froze and turned around. It was Country Z’s senators.
The senators were here!
Not only that, but Jun Chulin and Jun Xiling were also both here as well, evidently against their will.
They were done for.
Completely done for.
Jun Xiyan’s face was pale as she stared at Jun Xiqing and the senators in fear and shock. The pen recorder was fake. It was all to make her show her true colors.
People had always commended the youngest daughter of the Jun Family for her wits and intelligence, but this was the first time Jun Xiyan was seeing this with her own eyes.
“Jun Xiyan,” Ping Ping, who was standing beside Jun Xiqing, said angrily, “Ah Da was actually guarding outside the President’s residence yesterday. Her Highness couldn’t even bear to drop the cup to signal them. She couldn’t even bear to harm all of you.
“Her Highness has been in power for the past three years and it was because of her that the country has remained so peaceful. We all love and respect her, so how could she have been betrayed by the likes of you? Now your evil plans have been ruined, just wait for your sentence!”
Jun Xiyan’s legs weakened and she collapsed onto the ground.
They had lost.
Completely and utterly lost.
“Elder Sis,” Jun Xiling’s face was deathly pale.
Jun Xiyan shut her eyes and thought back to the moment before her father had passed. Her father had always been greedy for power and wanted the Jun Family to hold power for generations. Before he had passed away, he had told her that Qingqing was no ordinary woman, that she was at odds with the Jun family and needed to be taken out.
Between Xiyan and Qingqing, he had unhesitatingly chosen Xiyan.
As the eldest son of the Jun family, he had to protect their prestige.
But father, I’ve disappointed you.
Everything had changed today and the Jun family was done for.
“Your Highness, we’ve wronged you. We’re here to bring you home.”
“Yes, Your Highness, please come back home with us.”
The nine senators all swarmed forward.
Jun Xiqing stood at the river and slowly shook her head.
“Your Highness!”
Someone brought a table and a chair over and Jun Xiqing sat down. She raised her pen, just like she did for the past three years as she sat at the table, dealing with state matters.
The night breeze caressed Jun Xiqing’s face just like a gentle hand, making her beauty even more evident.
It was this moment that people would remember for years to come, when Her Highness from the legend, the youngest daughter of the Jun family, had her last moment as the President of the country.
Jun Xiqing raised her hand and wrote on the paper – A new name has come to power and it is now a new age. But there cannot be chaos in the country.
How could she be the President of Country Z if she wasn’t from the Jun family?
The senators rushed forward. “Your Highness!”
Jun Xiqing wrote something else – Everyone, listen to my orders!
The nine senators formed three rows based on their ranks, bowed politely and said, “Your Highness, please speak.”
—-From this moment on, Jun Xiyan will be stripped of her position. She collaborated with the enemy to revolt and hence will be sent to the martial court to be sentenced. Future generations should be warned – never give in to your own selfish desires. When the country is strong, the people will be strong.
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Jun Xiyan trembled. She knew that her end was near.
—-Jun Xiling will be given the title of Princess An Le and will enjoy richest for the rest of her life, but she is to be confined to the Princess’s residence for the rest of her life and is not to take one step out of the doors.
“Yes, Your Highness.”
With that, Jun Xiling’s fate was set as well. She had thought that Jun Xiqing would sentence her to death but that wasn’t the case. Jun Xiqing was confining her for the rest of her life but would let her live a life of luxury.
Jun Chulin looked at Jun Xiqing.
She continued writing – I henceforth renounce my position as President and abdicate the position to the eldest son of the Jun family, Jun Chulin. You must do your best to aid the new President to create a peaceful and prosperous country.
Jun Xiqing was handing her presidential position over to Jun Chulin.
Frozen like a statue, Jun Chulin was unable to believe his ears. Even Jun Xiyan and Jun Xiling stared at Jun Xiqing in shock and only regained their wits after a long while.
“Your Highness!” The senators wanted to speak.
Jun Xiqing put down her pen slowly and got up, her bright eyes gazing lightly at each of them. They were filled with the pain of parting but also warmth and strength.
“Yes, Your Highness!”
The senators acknowledged her decision with tears in their eyes.
Red lips curving upwards, Jun Xiqing left with Ping Ping.
“We humbly see Her Highness off!”
The nine senators knelt slowly in the direction of Jun Xiqing’s retreating figure, bowing to her with tears in her eyes.
Jun Xiqing didn’t stop and left along the river.
“Howl…”
At this moment, a loud howl sounded in the night, piercing the clouds. In the distance, the legendary Wolf Iron Steed Troop ran over, bathed in moonlight, leaving dust in their angry footsteps.
They were here.
They were all here to send Her Highness off.
