Chapter 35 People of the Imperial Clan of Zither Came Here“Patriarch, here is the zither.”
The patriarch of the imperial clan of Sword took over the zither. Looking at it, he asked coldly, “Can you exchange now?”
Ronghua came to her senses and saw the zither. She took the zither quickly before people of the imperial clan of Sword could react.
Xu Xin"s father looked sullen. He tried his best to endure, and he asked, with great rage, “What do you mean? Let go of my son now that you have taken the zither.”
Ronghua stroked the zither, full of delight. But her coldness couldn"t hide.
“I just let you take the zither here. When did I say I would let him go?”
Ronghua looked at the patriarch of the imperial clan of Sword. It suddenly occurred to her that Xu Xin was genetically stupid.
Xu Xin was shedding oceans of tears.
“Heroine. Haven"t you said that you would let me go as long as you take the zither?”
Ronghua stared at him, “When did I say I would let you go?”
Ronghua lowered her head, “I let you take the zither here, but I didn"t say I would let you go. Furthermore, the bitterness that Mo had suffered under your control would soon be doubled on you guys by me.”
Her words made Xu Xin tremble with fear. He realized that she would never let him go smoothly, so he regretted hurting Xia Pumo, thinking to himself, “Why did I seek death?”
Xu Xin said, “My father….”
“Hum.” Xu Xin stopped saying when he saw Ronghua"s eyes.
Ronghua increased the force of her fingers, which impelled Xu Xin to stay still; otherwise, he might die. Therefore, Xu Xin kept silent.
Ronghua looked at her dirty clothes, “Wait!”
Ronghua made a snowflake-shaped ball, stepped on it, and snapped her fingers. Then the s...o...b..ll flew up slowly around her body. All the parts the s...o...b..ll touched turned into a bright ice blue dress. Ronghua had initially worn a red dress and a purple robe. She didn"t like tying her hair, so it was loosened. Now her gown was also ice blue, and she had become the Ice Queen from the elegant Princess. She had long, smooth hair and golden pupils, just like a fairy.
“Okay! Go ahead!”
But people were startled by Ronghua, who dressed up like that.
This woman was so bold that she had changed her clothes so casually in front of many people.
People came to their senses until Ronghua snapped her fingers.
“What do you want to do?” Xu Chao said coldly. It appeared that she wasn"t ordinary, for ordinary people must be afraid of the Xu Family.
Slightly waving her sleeves, Ronghua answered calmly, “Nothing. Just wait for someone, like you.”
Xu Chao was a little surprised and thought, “How could she know we were waiting for someone?”
“But,” Ronghua paused, and then she continued, “It"s useless for them to come here. I will kill all of them!”
Xu Chao held his sword tightly and couldn"t endure her anymore.
“You mess with me!”
People behind him rushed up to Ronghua, surrounding her.
Ronghua scorned them, “Did they want to besiege me?”
Ronghua threw Xu Xin out and shouted, “Shenyuan.”
Then people saw Ronghua throw Xu Xin away. A cloud of black haze emerged where Xu Xin fell, wrapping him before he could ask for help. Xu Xin disappeared in a blink.
Xu Chao shouted, “Demon, how dare you kill my son?!”
He couldn"t stand it anymore. He had intended to let people of the imperial clan of Zither deal with Xia Pumo. But this woman said she was his elder sister and nearly killed Xu Xin.
Ronghua walked over gracefully and stroked her air, “Only one requirement!”
People surrounding her wondered why she dared make a request. Hadn"t she realized the reality?
Ronghua said, “Don"t dirty my clothes!”
Xu Chao rushed over with red eyes, holding a sword in his left hand and a whip in the right one. He wanted to chop Ronghua, but she dodged. Squinting it, she held the sword, with spiritual power gathering on her hand. She increased the power, which made the sword broken.
Xu Chao whirled several times till he could stand straight.
“Come on!” He ordered his subordinates.
He didn"t believe that she could escape unscathed from so many people.
Ronghua thought, “What a shame to besiege me with such a large crowd!”
Ronghua had prepared, but no one dared approach her. They held their swords and flew in the air. Ronghua thought, “Did they think that I couldn"t fly, so they wanted to use the formation to trap me in?”
Ridiculous!
Ronghua took out the fan and injected spiritual power into it. The fan became black immediately but emitted unusual light. What would she do?
Murong Zhe in the ice didn"t understand. Although Ronghua cut off the contact with him, he still felt the current status of Ronghua. What was she doing?
Xia Pumo also felt his puzzlement, “What"s wrong?”
Murong Zhe stared at him with a little anxiety, “Perhaps Ronghua intended to kill them!”
Murong Zhe wasn"t sure about it, for Ronghua hardly used the fan. Although her fan often transformed into various spiritual weapons, it couldn"t succeed on its own. In fact, Ronghua had the skill of forging weapons, so she made these spiritual weapons of similar power to the fan.
“The intention to kill?” Xia Pumo didn"t believe it.
“Hmm.” Murong Zhe wished it were his illusion, but he could feel it. He said, “Her intention to kill is firm. If we didn"t stop her, the whole city would be over.”
Xia Pumo was stunned, “How could this be?” Ronghua was so kind. How could she have a firm intention to kill?
Murong Zhe consoled him, “Don"t be surprised. People coming from that place aren"t normal.”
That place?
“Does she belong to the demon race?” Xia Pumo didn"t believe it. She was so excellent, but why had the demon race never mentioned her?
“No. She"s not a demon.”
Murong Zhe stroked Xia Pumo"s face, “Her background was beyond our imagination. You will know her ident.i.ty later.”
Xia Pumo understood that everyone had his secret, let alone Ronghua, such a mysterious and powerful woman.
“Okay! We should go out!”
Murong Zhe held Xia Pumo around his waist with one hand and pressed the other hand on the ice. He pushed it hard, making the ice melt.
Ronghua was holding the fan, looking cruel and merciless. But she liked this free feeling as if nothing could restrain her.
“How do you guys want to die?”
As soon as Ronghua waved her fan, lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled. The sky changed its color as if something was going to come out.
Witnessing the changes, Xu Chao had a lousy presentiment, but he hadn"t dealt with the present trouble.
“Crazy girl, don"t be so presumptuous and complacent!” Xu Chao tried to be brave by shouting. Although he was scared, he was a patriarch who had experienced much before, including this. Although Ronghua was powerful, he wouldn"t be afraid to fight with her.
As others approached her to attract her attention, Xu Chao said to his trusted subordinate, “Haven"t the people of the imperial clan of Zither come here?”
“No. They haven"t!”
“d.a.m.n it!” Xu Chao cursed and thought, “Do they come here so late on purpose?”
Ronghua had lost her mind. She indulged in the killing, with her eyes becoming blood red, which was a bloodsucking symbol.
Murong Zhe and Xia Pumo came out of the ice bed. They looked at Ronghua, concernedly, “What"s wrong with her? Even though she wants to kill people, she shouldn"t be that frenetic! Is there any problem?”
Ronghua killed people insanely. People approaching her were thrown away or torn apart by her fan. Ronghua grabbed one person as a shield, and then she put the fan on his head, making it whirl. After he died, she kicked him off. She rushed up to the crowd. A beam of intense light emitted, all people approaching her were killed.
The rest of the crowd looked around, shivering. They all wanted someone else to go first, for Ronghua had become a killer, frightening them to death.
Ronghua was also looking at them. All the people around her had died, and she smiled coldly, “Don"t you want to kill me? Come on!”
Ronghua raised her fan, and the blood remaining on the fan dripped on the ground, shocking everyone.
Ronghua"s face had some bloodstains. Her white dress had become red, but she was still attractive. She pointed at the next one, with her fan rotating. She had intended to tease them, but they were scared to death.
Before Ronghua continued killing, a sound of the zither came out. Ronghua stopped smiling, feeling strange.
She heard someone call her, “Don"t listen to it!”
It was too late. Ronghua had already listened to the song. She calmed down, with hands down and eyes closed, in a dormant state.
These people came here. All of them wore white and neat clothes, holding zithers and standing behind their leader. However, it was chaotic here, making them showy. Such a sharp contrast made Xu Chao unhappy!
He stood up slowly and walked towards them, “The Xias of the imperial clan of Zither, how could you come so timely?”
He had been exhausted, just clenching his teeth.
The leader put away the zither, stepped forward, and held fists calmly, “Patriarch Xu, I"m sorry. Something has delayed us on the way!”
Xu Chao sneered, “Not late. We haven"t all died. You come too early!”
Although Xu Chao satirized him, he didn"t get annoyed. It seemed that he had a good temper.
Xia Pumo had been trembling since these people came here.
Xia Pumo said, “Zhe, hold me!”
Murong Zhe held him tightly, “I did!”
Xia Pumo quivered, “Tighter!”
Murong Zhe said, “Yes!”
Xia Pumo was involuntarily frightened when he saw these people. But it was not his fault.
These people came from the Xia Family of the imperial clan of Zither. Their leader was Xia Pumo"s elder brother— Xia Puyang, Young Master Xuanji!
Xia Puyang had never shown many expressions, with a cold face all the time, just like Xia Pumo in the past, which made people have an urge to beat him, but they couldn"t find a good reason.
Xia Puyang had noticed Xia Pumo, who was frail and leaned close to Murong Zhe; he had also seen Murong Zhe, who was held tightly by Xia Pumo. Xia Puyang thought, “Murong Zhe, you made it!”
Xia Puyang ignored Xu Chao and directly walked towards Xia Pumo. Xia Pumo was scared, so he might not want to talk with Xia Puyang.
Xia Puyang looked at Xia Pumo and frowned, “Don"t you think your behavior is indecent?”
Murong Zhe was surprised, “d.a.m.n it! Why could he come up scolding?”
Xia Pumo was afraid of them, so he immediately closed his auditory sense. He didn"t have to hear their annoying words anymore.
Xia Puyang realized what he had done, so he sighed, “Mo, are you still unwilling to talk with me?”
Xia Pumo stayed still while Murong Zhe was happy. Xia Puyang didn"t allow Mo to talk with him in the past. Now Mo spoke with him, as his sweetheart. They had intimate relations. Moreover, Mo usually said some honeyed words to him. But now, Mo didn"t speak with Xia Puyang. G.o.d was fair!
Murong Zhe lighted up with pleasure!
Murong Zhe felt delighted that Mo didn"t respond to Xia Puyang, so he held Xia Pumo more tightly.
Xia Pumo felt the change, so he slightly turned around, with his face leaning on Murong Zhe"s shoulder. Murong Zhe also turned around. Then Xia Pumo saw Xia Puyang was still standing there from Murong Zhe"s eyes!
Xia Pumo didn"t want to talk with him. But he recovered his auditory sense.
“Mo, how is it going these years?”
“Do your wounds hurt? How do you feel?”
“Come back with me! You are still the second young master of the imperial clan of Zither, Xia Pumo.”
…
Xia Pumo felt painful when hearing Xia Puyang"s promise, with tears in his eyes. Murong Zhe immediately felt his sadness. He patted Xia Pumo and consoled him, “Don"t worry! I"m always with you!”
Meanwhile, Murong Zhe was mad at Xia Puyang, thinking, “You deliberately came here at this point, making my sweetheart unhappy. If I had enough power, I would let you pay the price!”
