Incarnation Of Gods: Endless War

Third-person POV

Several carriages were halted by guards from entering the Royal Palace. The man that was driving the most front carriage showed his Shu family badge to the guards, the guards nodded his head but still insisted on having the carriages checked before entering the Royal Palace.

Just as they opened the door of the carriage, a man with gigantic was glaring at them with his blood-chilling golden eyes causing the guards to went weak on their legs. He was sitting on the floor of the carriage with a beautiful lady laying her head on the golden-eyed man's lap. The beautiful lady had bandages wrapped around her left eyes.

The guards immediately know the identity of the man just by his golden eyes, the guard hastily stopped his friends from inspecting the other carriages as he could guess what was in there. He quickly bowed to Xu Tingfeng and closed the door without a sound.

The captain of the guards deployed several of his subordinates to escort the group to the palace that was exclusively prepared for Xu Tingfeng after knowing that he would arrive any time soon. And a few guards to inform Weisheng, Lu Ping, Lu Deng Xin, and Lu Cixi of Xu Tingfeng's arrival.

Since the Royal Palace was filled with Hong er's elite forces hiding in the dark, they could inform their fellow elite forces. Even Ah Li who stayed by Lu Cixi's side pleaded Lu Cixi to let her visit XuTingfeng which she was allowed to. Worried about their master, they followed Xu Tingfeng's carriage to the designated palace and waited for the carriage to stop before they jumped out from their hiding spot and surround the carriages with both of their knees and forehead touching the ground.

The servants and guards that were standing around them were stunned by the heavy atmosphere that surrounded the group. One by one, the members of Hong er's elite force arrived and instantly kowtowed to the carriage.

(A/N: I will use 'Xu Tingfeng's elite forces' for the group of elite forces that was under Xu Tingfeng's supervision while 'Hong er's elite forces' for the elite forces that followed Hong er to Da Qi such as the Yun sisters, Ah Tong, Ah Li, etc.)

Even Huayun, Ah Tong, Ah Xi and the others that served closely beside Hong er were on the site. Ah Tong that was left with his right arm while Ah Xi and Huayun who was still in a wheelchair limply walked to the front row and kowtowed by slamming their head to the ground.

Ming Yu and the others who were still confused by the grief situation were horrified and worried at the same time by the sight of dozens of people kneeling to a carriage. They didn't know who and what was in the carriage that made one of the most powerful forces in the world to fell on their knees.

The carriages door slowly opened and a strong wave of killing intent gushed out from the carriage. A tall man stepped out from the carriage while carrying a gorgeous looking woman in his arms. He gently held the lady as if she would break if he added a bit of strength. Another group of elite forces came out from the other carriages and stood silently at the side knowing that they shouldn't disturb their enraged master.

Everyone was as silent as a statue, Xu Tingfeng walked pass the kneeling elite forces without batting a single glance on them. They also didn't move an inch and stayed silent with their head on the ground.

The elder servant nervously guided Xu Tingfeng to his room. Shivers ran down his spine when his eyes met with Xu Tingfeng's golden eyes. Xu Tingfeng walked to the bed and carefully laid Bai Huiqing down to the bed then pulled the blanket up to her chest.

Shu Bian Que and his wife went to Bai Huiqing and set up their medical tools at the side of the bed. Shu Bian Que placed a white silk cloth on Bai Huiqing's wrist and pressed his fingers on her wrist to check her pulse.

"She is fine, nothing is wrong. But please put a soundproof barrier around here, we need silence." Shu Bian Que glanced at Xu Tingfeng and started to burn an incense that could help Bai Huiqing to recover.

Without replying to Shu Bian Que, Xu Tingfeng walked out of the room with heavy steps. Shu Bian Que sighed pitifully for Hong er's elite forces. Xu Tingfeng made his way to the crowd that had turned around and now was facing his way with their forehead still on the ground.

The servants gulped back a mouthful of saliva when Xu Tingfeng summoned his fiery Guan Dao. Ming Yu's heart was beating vigorously as she had a bad feeling of what was going to happen to the group.

Xu Tingfeng raised his Guan Dao and slammed it to the ground. A couple layers of soundproof barriers were cast and enveloped the quarter where Bai Huiqing was resting.

"Know your mistake?" Xu Tingfeng uttered a few words with his deep voice.

His voice was as cold as iceberg. The servants shivered in fear even though the weather started to get warmer.

"YES, MASTER!" Huayun and the others answered at the top of their voice.

Their voice resounded throughout all of the Royal Palace and drew the attention of the nearby guards and servants.

"What is your mistake?" Xu Tingfeng slammed his Guan Dao onto the ground once again and a ring of fire circled them.

"Replying to Master! We let the enemy took Her Majesty Empress!" The group answered firmly.

Xu Tingfeng glowered at the group, "You know the consequences?"

"Yes, Master!" They raised their head and took off their outer clothes, leaving only a layer of undergarment.

The servants gasped when they saw Huayun and the other women in the group took off their clothes. To women in their era, being seen n.a.k.e.d or in a thin layer of cloths, were extremely disgraceful.

"Huayun!" A voice called out to Huayun in horror.

But Huayun didn't move an inch as if she didn't hear anything. The owner of the voice ran towards Huayun with his coat in his hands. Xu Tingfeng lifted his eyes to look at the man that shouted Huayun's name.

Weisheng, Lu Ping, Lu Deng Xin, and Lu Cixi were standing at the entrance of the courtyard with a grim expression on their faces. Song Tao swiftly blocked Qier from passing through and gave him a powerful blow on his chest.

(A/N: Reminder, Song Tao is Xu Tingfeng's butler and former teacher.)

Qier's body slammed to the wall from the impact of Song Tao's fist. Qiyi ran to his little brother and furrowed his brows in anger when he saw Qier coughed a mouthful of blood. Qiyi clenched his fist and was about to charge at Song Tao when Weisheng's hand stopped him.

Then Qiyi noticed the murderous glare that was coming from Xu Tingfeng.

"Step back, kid." Xu Tingfeng growled at Qiyi.

At that moment, Qiyi realized that he wouldn't be able to defeat Song Tao, needless to say, Xu Tingfeng. Qiyi took a few steps back and stood silently beside Weisheng while supporting Qier by putting Qier's arm around his shoulder.

Seeing that Qiyi and Qier quieted down, Xu Tingfeng turned his eyes to Hong er's elite forces, "Continue."

A few personnel from Xu Tingfeng's elite forces stepped forward and a pool of water built up above Hong er's elite forces group. With a single snap of finger, the cold water fell all over their body, soaking their clothes and caused it to become slightly see-through.

Even though the winter wind was not as intense as a few days ago, it was still very cold and made their body trembling in cold. Ming Yu and the others widened their eyes in shock, some of the personnel hadn't fully recovered from the battle therefore it would be too harsh for them to be punished in their frail state.

The grey clouds above them started to whirl around, roll of thunders roared followed with a tremendous flash of lightning blinded their eyes. Then several personnel from Xu Tingfeng's elite forces summoned their wh.i.p.s and stood behind each of Hong er's elite forces' personnel.

Their wh.i.p.s glowed brightly with their Qi and little crackle of lightning started to envelop their wh.i.p.s. They raised their wh.i.p.s to the air and mercilessly swung it across Huayun and the others' back. Every time the whip hit their back, a crack of lightning from the sky struck their body which intensifies the pain.

"Stop it! Please stop it! They didn't do anything wrong! Her Majesty Empress is still alive. Great General Xu, I beg you to release them!"

All of their attention brought to Ming Yu who crawled to Xu Tingfeng's leg.
