Chapter 38 . 3: Coming Out to Quell the Upheaval
— Within the flaming pool inside the Raging Flames Pagoda —
Duanmu Xi endured through excruciating agony to finally succeed in renewing her core essence and boosting her meridians .
Not only did she now possess a Heaven defying gift for cultivation, even her looks had become as astounding as a celestial being .
Her skin faintly aglow, lustrous as the most beautiful jade, fair like the first snowfall, so fine as if newly reborn . Her deep violet eyes had grown more deeply mesmerizing, her exquisite little face capable of bringing ruin to countries .
If it was said she had looked like a fairy from the Heavens, she was now ten times more beautiful than that fairy .
Duanmu Xi got up, and felt the fiery crimson feathers on her body .
“Scarlet, shall be your name . ”
Thank you Mistress, let Scarlet bring you out now . ”
She had really been in here for too long .
“Mm . ”
Night fell .
Up on the Vermillion Bird South City Gates, arrows fell like rain, and Huangfu Che was carefully shielding Duanmu Xue .
“Your Majesty, we will not be able to hold the city gates much longer . ”

Red Maple’s face was forlorn as she ran in a half crouch over to Duanmu Xue to report .
Duanmu Xue creased up her brows, and her eyes flashed with a glint of worry .
Huangfu Che’s face was similarly looking rather grave . “Any news of Phoenix First?”
They could only pin all their hopes on Phoenix First and Peng Xin now .
Red Maple shook her head . “The defending army in the frontlines reported that General Peng has not appeared . ”
Duanmu Xue’s eyes darkened . [Is she really going to be defeated at the hands of Duanmu Shuang?]
“Your Majesty, look!”
A sudden cry of surprise sounded, which broke Duanmy Xue’s chain of thoughts .

“Master Xuanyuan has come!”
Upon seeing Xuanyuan Mo slaughtering his way through the enemy below the city gates, Red Maple’s face became excited .
Hearing those words, both Duanmu Xue and Huangfu Che looked down over the city gates at the same time .
They saw the man with flawless looks dressed in a suit of black battle armour speedily cutting down the soldiers surrounding him with his purple mystic power .
[It’s really the kid!]
[It’s been three years since they last saw him, and the kid’s cultivation has progressed by quite a bit . He must have already attained the high Mystic Emperor level it seems . What a prodigious youth . ]
Having slaughtered the circle of soldiers that surrounded him in an instant, Xuanyuan Mo leapt into the air to soar up atop the city walls above the gates .

“Are my two Seniors alright? Your Junior has arrived here late . ”
“You’re not late, not late . The timing is just right . ”
Huangfu Che said with a reassuring pat on Xuanyuan Mo’s shoulder, his face grateful .
Xuanyuan Mo pressed his lips together and said: “It’s great that my two Seniors are alright . The hundred thousand men your Junior leads is now still at the Black Tortoise Kingdom’s border and I only have three thousand elite troops here with me . Seeing that the rebel army’s numbers are so great, why not my two Seniors retreat from here together with me for now and we can make plans when reinforcements arrive . ”
Duanmu Xue and Huangfu Che looked at each other and then nodded their heads .
Right at that moment, a blinding red light burst forth from the Phoenix Song Palace in the Vermillion Bird’s Imperial Palace .
The burst of red light flared out from the Phoenix Song Palace, lighting up the entire Imperial Capital City .
