Chapter 1125: Over and Over Again IV
Murong Yang did not believe that Fu Qingjiu could tame the strong and powerful spirit beasts.
Out of the blue, Murong Yang had miscalculated.
These spirit beasts were quite something, but they had actually returned to the palace together with Fu Qingjiu. Fu Qingjiu must have had some pleasant encounters in the mausoleum of the Ninth Emperor. Otherwise… the rumors might be true.
“What rumors?” Qing Han blinked, dazedly.
“Oh, Princess Qingjiu has a strong affinity for spirit beasts. Rumor has it that she is the reincarnation of the Ninth Emperor. Do you know anything about the Ninth Emperor? Some time ago, a mausoleum was unearthed in Haitian Kingdom—the mausoleum of the Ninth Emperor…”
Suddenly, Murong Yang stopped talking. Deep in Murong Yang’s eyes was the reflection of a teenager bursting with anger.
At this time, the stunning beauty who lay in the ice coffin flashed through his mind. In his mind, the face of the beauty in the ice coffin and Feng Ruqing’s were uncannily alike…
‘If the rumors were true, what about Maiden Feng?’
The beauty in the mausoleum looked exactly the same as Feng Ruqing. Even if she was just the remains of what was once a woman, she had the same domineering brows as Feng Ruqing’s…
Murong Yang was lost in thought and could not regain his senses for a long while.
Until… a familiar voice sounded and brought him back to his senses.
“Murong Yang, why are you here?” Atop the horse, Fu Qingjiu frowned. Her eyes were full of disdain. Especially when she saw that Murong Yang had actually gotten rid of the stretcher and was standing before her, intact. Fu Qingjiu thought that Murong Yang was severely ill. It turned out that Murong Yang was just acting it out to gain sympathy. How pathetic!
“Why does Your Highness ask this? Murong Yang has always loved you wholeheartedly. Naturally, he has snuck into your palace when you are not around. He just doesn’t change.” The manor lady of the chancellor’s manor broke into a chuckle.
Murong Yang snorted. He did not want to waste time with Fu Qingjiu. He turned his head around without sparing a glance at the people before him.
“Forget about him, it’s not a big deal.” Fu Qingjiu shook her head.
“You all go and get a place ready for these spirit beasts. I have no choice. It seems that they want to stay in the palace with me and don’t want to go anywhere else.”
Fortunately, these spirit beasts did not run wild in the palace and only charged toward Qingjiu’s chamber. Otherwise, no matter how much Fu Qingjiu loved these spirit beasts, she would never let these spirit beasts stay in the palace before taming them.
“At your command, Your Highness.”
Originally, the guards in the palace were worried about letting these spirit beasts stay in the palace. However, they were slightly relieved when they saw these spirit beasts were actually listening to Fu Qingjiu’s command. One of the guards had even reached out to grab the tiger.
As the rabbit had a good temper, it had only bit Fu Qingjiu. It was still considered kind and friendly to humans. However, the tiger was different. It could never be as gentle as the rabbit.
Enraged, the tiger turned its head, bit off the guard’s arm, and spat it out onto the ground.
After all, this tiger did not feed on raw meat. Spirit herb was its only food…
The rest of the guards who wanted to grab other spirit beasts suddenly stopped in their tracks. Their outstretched hands stopped midair.
A light breeze blew, sending a chill into everyone’s hearts—a terrifying coldness that they had never experienced before.
At this time, Fu Qingjiu heard a sound from the side hall.
