Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King

“Oh yeah? Will you give up everything for Xi, including power, identity, and life?”

Duanmu Xue stared at Xuanyuan Mo, paying attention to his facial expression closely.

“Yes, I will.”

Without hesitation, Xuanyuan Mo answered Duanmu Xue firmly.

Duanmu Xue nodded inwardly.

This young man was quite good but should she let him go easily…

Suddenly, Duanmu Xue released an air of cyan mysterious Qi at Xuanyuan Mo. Attacked off guard, Xuanyuan Mo let out the blue mysterious Qi hastily.

“Mother…”

Duanmu Xi didn’t understand why Duanmu Xue suddenly launched an attack. Didn’t they talk merrily just now?

“Xi, no worries. Your mother is testing his ability. He will be fine.”

Huangfu Che patted Duanmu Xi’s shoulder and comforted her gently.

Shortly, Duanmu Xue found in surprise that Xuanyuan Mo was a Mysterious Emperor.

Such a young Mysterious Emperor was actually quite rare. He was even more outstanding than Huangfu Che back then.

After several hundred moves, the two of them stopped.

Duanmu Xue patted Xuanyuan Mo’s shoulder with an approving facial expression.

“Very good. You deserve to be with my daughter. I’ll leave her with you from now on. You must protect her well.”

Her daughter couldn’t cultivate, which was what she and her husband were worried about most. With this young man’s protection, maybe what happened a year ago would never happen again.

“Your Majesty, please rest assured. I swear by my life that I will protect her well.”

He would protect her at all costs…

“Haha. My daughter has a good eye. When you become grown-up, I shall go to the Baihu Empire to propose marriage for you and let the two of you get married early in case he is taken by others.”

Duanmu Xue’s bantering made the two of them blush again.

“Well, stop making fun of them. Let them take a rest now. There will be a dinner party tonight.”

Seeing their bashful looks, Huangfu Che came forward and helped them out.

“You are right. They should take a rest indeed,” Duanmu Xue nodded and ordered Hongfeng aside, “Take the Crown Princess and Mr. Xuanyuan to the Eastern Palace for a rest.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

In the Eastern Palace of the Zhuque Empire.

The two close maids of Duanmu Xi, Ziwan and Ziyan were busy working. One of them was adding hot water into the bathing bucket and the other was sprinkling the flower petals into the bathing bucket.

While working, they looked at Duanmu Xi sitting by the window once in a while.

Her Highness the Crown Princess was really back. They felt as if they were dreaming.

They hadn’t seen the crown princess for more than one year. Now, she had grown up and become more beautiful. However, it seemed that she couldn’t remember them anymore and treated them less closely.

After everything was ready, Ziwan came behind Duanmu Xi and bowed, “Your Highness, the water is ready. Your Highness can take a bath now.”

“Okay.”

“I shall help Your Highness take off the clothes then.” Ziyan walked forward and wanted to help Duanmu Xi take off the clothes.

Duanmu Xi turned around and avoided her, saying coldly.

“No need. You two can get out now.”

She didn’t want others to take off her clothes, even a woman.

Ziwan and Ziyan were both shocked but still bowed themselves out.

“We are leaving then.”

After Ziwan and Ziyan retreated out of the room, Duanmu Xi came to the bathing bucket and took off her clothes.

The hot water washed off Duanmu Xi’s fatigue. Being back here made her feel at home.

Now, she had a father, a mother, Snow, Ying and Lanze. She was no more lonely. If her grandpa were here, it would be even better.

“Grandpa, I miss you so much…” She thought.

After half an hour or so, Duanmu Xi finished the bath, wrapped herself up with a towel and stepped out of the bucket.

“Someone come inside.”

Hearing her summon, Ziwan and Ziyan pushed open the door gently and said to Duanmu Xi with a bow.

“Your Highness.”

“Bring me a suit of white clothes.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

At the gate of Princess Jing’s mansion.

Duanmu Shuang got out of the sedan with a sullen face.

“Ask Qing to meet me in the study.”

The moment she entered Princess Jing’s mansion, Duanmu Shuang ordered Heimei behind her again.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

After saluting her with a bow, Heimei walked in another direction.

After 15 minutes or so, Duanmu Qing entered the study.

Seeing Duanmu Shuang standing by the window with her hands on her back, Duanmu Qing frowned.

“Mother?”

“The Crown Princess is back in the imperial palace.”

Duanmu Shuang was still looking out of the window, saying in a deep voice.

“What? She is back?” The news just made Duanmu Qing stamp with fury.

Hearing the shout, Duanmu Shuang slightly frowned and turned around to look at Duanmu Qing with dissatisfaction.

Feeling Duanmu Shuang’s dissatisfaction, Duanmu Qing slightly refrained herself.

“What about the assassins we sent out?”

With a glint of brutality crossing her eyes, Duanmu Shuang uttered three words through her clenched teeth.

“All wiped out.”

She dispatched so many elite mysterious masters and yet, none of them came back alive.

Duanmu Xue was so contemptible and shameless, who snatched the throne first and then took away her beloved man. Even Duanmu Xue’s daughter was so tough. How outrageous!

“What? How come? How can that total wreck be so capable?”

Hearing that the assassins were all wiped out, Duanmu Qing couldn’t help crying out.

“Wasn’t Heiju a Mysterious Emperor? How could she be defeated?”

A glint of maliciousness flashed across Duanmu Shuang’s eyes.

“Duanmu Xue must have sent the phoenix guards to protect her. Even Huangfu Che was there too. Huangfu Che is not a weak man of the Zhuque Empire. His cultivation level is so high that even I’m no match for him.”

Speaking of Huangfu Che, Duanmu Shuang gave an obsessive look uncontrollably.

“What should we do next?”

Now, Duanmu Qing was burning with anxiety.

Duanmu Shuang slightly squinted her eyes, “Let’s bide our time and see what will happen next.”

“But the total wreck saw me. She knew it was me…”

Duanmu Shuang sneered, “No worries. I heard that she lost her memory.”

Lost her memory?

Duanmu Qing was elated, “What a heavenly favor!”

“Prepare yourself for the dinner party tonight.”

“Yes, I’m leaving.”

In the general’s mansion.

“Your Excellency…”

“Your Excellency…”

Hearing the servant’s cry, Si Yunhan put down the book and looked at the door with dissatisfaction.

“Why are you in such a hurry?”

“Your Excellency, it is said that Her Highness the Crown Princess is back in the imperial palace,” the servant said out of breath, holding the doorframe.

Si Yunhan immediately stood up in surprise and said with excitement, “Really? Are you sure?”

The servant immediately nodded, “Yes, I heard that Her Highness the Crown Princess went into the Zhuque Hall. The civil and military officials and officers all saw her.”

The news was spread from the imperial palace. It couldn’t be wrong.

“That must be true then. Terrific. She is finally back.”

Si Yunhan was running out of the room with a delighted look but he stopped at the door.

She was back now but how could he meet her? He was not the same old him anymore…

Si Yunhan staggered back, his face full of depression.

Why did God do this to him? Why? Why couldn’t she come back two days earlier?

He was so regretful now. Why didn’t he wait a bit longer? Why…

“Your Excellency, Her Highness Heiress of Princess Jing wants to meet you.”

While Si Yunhan was desperate, another servant came inside and reported.
