Chapter 320 The battle of the night!
Letting out a sigh, Ning Xue walked to her room, her body adorned in royal robes, a veil covering her face, and saw the female servant standing there waiting for her presence.
The woman bowed gently "Your Highness."
With a nod, Ning Xue entered her room, and as she walked to the mirror to remove her robes. Suddenly, a soft knock echoed through the room, causing her to pause and turn towards the door. "Enter."
As the door opened, the female servant entered and kneeled on the floor "Your Majesty."
Ning Xue raised an eyebrow "Anything important?"
The female servant nodded her head "Yes, Your Majesty. It's about His Highness."
Hm? Hearing this, Ning Xue frowned "About Tian? What about him?"
The woman took a deep breath as she remembered Yu Hua's warning but she is more loyal to Ning Zue.
With hesitation, she spoke "It's that... His Highness is cheating on you."
Eh? Ning Xue blinked her eyes and chuckled in her mind as she walked and sat on the bed, placing her legs over each other.
"Tian is cheating on me?"
The woman gave a nod "Yes, Your Majesty... earlier, I saw him kissing Lady Hua just outside your room."
Ning Xue couldn't help but chuckle and said "I see. He is cheating on me now, huh..." she mused under her breath.
At this time, the woman also remembered Hun Xiang "And Your majesty, there is-" but she stopped as Ning Xue raised her hand.
Huh? A frown creased Ning Xue's eyebrows as she suddenly felt some presence above the palace, high in the sky.
What? Ning Xue's eyes dilated in shock because it felt like the powerful presence came out of nowhere.
W-What is happening? Ning Xue hurriedly stood up and walked to the balcony to check on it.
Under the faint glow of the moonlight, Ning Xue looked at the large number of shadowy figures floating high in the sky.
Huh? WHAT IS HAPPENING?! Ning Xue's eyes widened in disbelief as she gazed upon the chaotic scene unfolding before the palace gates; the large battle happening in front of the palace. Right in front of her eyes, the guards of the Zhenzhu kingdom are getting slain one after another, and she can't even hear their screams.
"H-Huh? Just a few minutes ago... there was no battle. what? Why couldn't I sense any of them till now?"
"And this battle force... Emperor, Sovereign, and Monarch Astral Stage cultivators?" Her eyes squinted, and anger fumed in her heart "Are they... here for another coup? I won't let these bastards go this time."
*swoosh* She dashed towards the battlefield and plunged into the ground. *boom* The rebels were taken aback as they watched the woman make her grand entrance onto the battlefield. "It's the Queen."
Now taking a closer look, Ning Xue saw the robes the rebels were wearing, and a cold glint passed through her eyes.
"Stormweaver Sect, Chen Clan, Ming Clan and even... Frozen Peak Sect? I am surprised, and you guys didn't even bother to hide your identity."
*swoosh* Golden flames swirled around her body and amongst the darkness of the night battlefield, her flames burned brightly, illuminating the whole area.
*woosh* She waved her hand, and with a burst of energy, the golden flames blasted around the area, burning the rebels.
"ARGHHH!!!" Their agonizing screams were heard across the whole battlefield as their bodies burned in the flames, the rotten smell of burning flesh and blood spreading in the air.
As the battle raged on, the sound of metal clashing and screams of pain filled the air. *sleesh* *sleesh* At this time, Ning Xue heard painful screams from the other side of the battlefield, and she turned her head to look at the blonde-haired woman, beheading the rebels one by one.
"Sister Zhilian."
*sleesh* Ning Zhilian was wearing her metal mask and was swiftly moving across the battlefield, her daggers piercing through hearts and heads.
*woosh* She jumped near Ning Xue and asked "Little Xue, what happened? The rebels appeared out of nowhere... and I am more concerned about the guys in the air."
"Inferno tempest." Ning Xue muttered and in the next instant, golden flames condensed around the air, forming a vortex and hurling towards the rebels.
"I don't know either... Sister Zhilian. And those fuckers up in the sky... are above 5th level of the Monarch Astral Stage."
*CLANK* *CLANK* At this time, a loud bell sound echoed across the whole palace startling everyone.
Ning Zhilian narrowed her eyes "Good thing someone used the alarm bell."
...
"Ahh, this is heavy." It was the female servant of Ning Xue who alarmed everyone by ringing the Emergency bell.
*dong* She grasped the heavy stick once more and struck the massive bell, causing its resonant sound to reverberate throughout the majestic palace. "Quick, the palace is getting attacked. Haah..."
...
Ning Xue and Ning Zhilian continued their relentless attacks on the rebels, killing every rebel in their vicinity.
Burning golden flames and yellowish lotus petals were illuminating the battlefield, as piercing screams of the rebels and blood splashed on the battlefield.
"You filthy bastards, you finally showed your true colors?" Yu Hua roared on the battlefield and a white aura seeped out of her body her eyes sharpening.
*sleesh* With a graceful leap, she entered the midst of the rebels, her sword slicing through the air with deadly precision as it swiftly ended the lives of those who dared to stand in her way. She didn't hold back her power and unleashed her sword intent from the start to kill the betrayers.
On the other end, Hun Xiang was also clearing as many rebels as she could with the twin blades in her hand, which were glowing in fiery red.
...
Chen Buzi looked down at the battlefield and saw Ning Xue seamlessly killing all the rebels with her Empyreal flame.
"There it is. Those weird-colored and powerful flames of hers. Do you know what that is, Mr.Thorleif?"
Thorleif Olsen's gaze narrowed and he mumbled "No."
There are many people floating beside him wearing dark hoods and among them, there is a woman.
The woman's eyes trembled in shock as she looked at the battlefield "What is... she doing here?"
Ming Shen who was also among the people spoke "Buzi, don't you think it is already time to kill that bitch? See, she is killing our people."
"Hm. Mr.Thorleif let's go."
*swoosh* *boom*
