Dance Of The Phoenix
85. Palace Hoopla

"Uncle Teacher, how was your meeting with His Majesty? Is there a problem?" Zhou Ying walked over to Zhou Tao who had just walked out of the private palace of the Tianshuang Palace King.

His face was pale and filled with surprise. He saw the Zhou brothers waiting for him. Did he just tell you that Miss Gu was here? With His Majesty?

"Indeed, there's a big problem." Zhou Tao was finally forced to divulge it. "Your Majesty brought Miss Gu to the palace."

"Miss Gu?" Zhou Ying looked confused.

"There's no way that Miss Gu is, right?" Zhou Wei was somewhat in disbelief.

"Where do you think Miss Gu do we know?" Zhou Tao snorted.

"So you mean ... Gu Yuena from Yuansu Palace is here? With His Majesty?" Zhou Ying thought hard how those two far different people could meet.

Ah, wait a minute. When did their King leave the palace? Isn't Miss Gu supposed to be in Yuansu Palace at the moment?

Just as Zhou Tao was about to explain in detail, a pink glint flashed so quickly across the sky like a shooting star.

Zhou Ying seemed to emit a bright smile and waved his hands wide. "Teacher, the student's home!"

The pink figure stopped in the sky, with butterfly wings on its back looking at the gathered Zhou brothers and Zhou Tao. The stupid kids have come home.

But unfortunately, he did not have much time to accompany them to talk. He chose to continue the journey to Bai Youzhe's private palace with an anxious look.

Zhou Ying was without disappointment and lowered both of his hands. "What's wrong with Master?"

Zhou Tao and Zhou Wei both shook shoulders not knowing. Today, many people enter the King's private palace without permission. It seems they have a lot of spare lives.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Su Churan shot out at full speed in the snow-covered sky. He landed in the palace courtyard, looking around to ask anyone to help usher him to where his friend was.

He had heard from the Assassin Guild that Gu Yuena was found in a critical state in Tianshuang Palace. What had Bai Youzhe done all this time? Didn't they meet in Yin City? How could Gu Yuena be dying!

It has been 6 years, but he was met with his favorite friend who was on the verge of death. He was obviously very angry.

One of the maids hurriedly approached Su Churan who looked agitated. "Miss Su, does anyone need anything?"

"Where is he?"

"I mean Miss ... Your Honor?"

"Miss that was just brought to this place."

The waiter seemed hesitant to say it or not. He thought, Su Churan is jealous because the King has brought another woman to his palace. Especially to his room.

"Can't you keep me waiting? I'm freaking out, don't piss me off." Su Churan was impatient.

"B-good ... Miss Su, please follow me." The servant inevitably showed Su Churan the way.

There was no one in this palace other than the servants who worked, as the entire Assassin Guild was carrying out the task that had just been given.

The servant directed Su Churan to the door of such a large room. Without saying anything, Su Churan opened the door just like that with a fiery rage.

Well, it's only natural that the girl is considered jealous.

"Xiao Yuena, where are you? What the hell happened to you? Oh, yesampun ...." Su Churan walked in with a sad face and went towards Gu Yuena who was lying weakly unconscious.

The servant who was delivering Su Churan was stunned for a moment. Why is the effect so familiar on the foreign woman?

Bai Youzhe gave a cold look at Su Churan, but the girl ignored her. The girl instead focused on examining Gu Yuena's health from end to end while being surprised to see Gu Yuena's clothes that were covered in bloodstains.

He was sure it was not only Gu Yuena's blood, as he could clearly smell the witch's blood.

There has been a great battle.

"What happened to her?" Su Churan immediately looked at Bai Youzhe with a demand. He faced the man and ruffled his waist fiercely. "You were also in Yin City back then, why did Xiao Yuena end up like this? Why did you leave him? What if something happens? Hah, something has happened. Fortunately Xiao Yuena was fine. However, what if those people killed Xiao Yuena on the spot and did not give her a chance to do something to save herself?"

Su Churan spoke in a high tone in front of the flat-faced Bai Youzhe. The waiter eavesdropping outside instantly goosebumps for a moment.

Aries ....

How could Miss Su talk to the King like that!

But it was undeniable, Bai Youzhe was speechless at Su Churan's words. He miscalculated something so it was fatal and regretted it.

Su Churan who saw Bai Youzhe quietly just yelled at immediately felt guilty. By the way, this was his first time so daring to snap at Bai Youzhe. He is usually the most vulnerable.

"Huh, I'm too emotional. Don't think about that shit too much." Su Churan was now feeling anxious, afraid that Bai Youzhe was angry with her. He chose to go near Gu Yuena, then clean the bloodstains on the girl's skin as a form of diversion.

Bai Youzhe looked at Gu Yuena once more, then sighed. "Take him for me. Chu Xin will come to help."

Su Churan nodded. He slightly lowered his head to Bai Youzhe, before finally continuing his activities while complaining.

Bai Youzhe left to finish her affairs. He had to find out what happened to Gu Yuena over the past 6 years. Bringing Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei along, the man disappeared.

While Su Churan only looked at Gu Yuena sadly. "Why do you always come in these circumstances? You don't love your own life."

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Like the other palaces, Tianshuang Palace also had many internal rumors that became the common secret of the disciples. Although they did not dare to reveal it directly, there were times when they formed fanatic groups in secret to support some factions.

Like for example Su Churan's supporters who wanted the girl to become the Queen of Tianshuang Palace. It was very popular even though Su Churan himself rarely appeared on the surface.

When they heard the rumor that their king was interested in the outer lady, they clearly did not believe it before seeing it for themselves. And sure enough, there were many kepo disciples trying to peek at the king's private palace.

Although it ultimately ended up failing.

"Huh, I wonder what His Majesty thinks. Clearly Miss Su had always been there for the Tianshuang Palace and Assassin Guild and was with Her Majesty since childhood."

"Hey, is it just Miss Su who has the contribution? Miss Ming is still better off and deserves the position of queen."

"Haha, only a fool would think Miss Ming is so deserving just because of her beautiful face and is the daughter of Elder Ming."

"Don't insult Elder Ming. After all, he was the elder of the previous generations."

"Then you must not insult Miss Su either. If Miss Su hears through the butterflies, she'll tear you apart."

"You think Miss Su's only spy is a lot?"

"What's this?" Zhou Ying appeared behind some disciples who were hiding behind the bushes while gossiping.

They all turned their heads towards the waist-rigged Zhou Ying.

"Yoo, Brother Seperguruan, is there something you want to say?" One of them is grunting without guilt.

Zhou Ying spoke in an annoyed tone. "Your greetings delivered! Why are you guys settling in here like thieves? Aren't you afraid of being caught and punished?"

"Synguruan Sister, why do you have to be so fierce?"

Zhou Ying snorted. These brats were admirers of the teacher and the woman. Those who hide in one place usually always fight, making him dizzy.

"Go before I report it!" Zhou Ying went to find his teacher. The children began to disperse reluctantly.

Zhou Ying was also anxious about how Miss Gu was doing there. So he hurriedly came alone after hearing Zhou Tao's explanation.

When he was about to enter the palace, he was silent for a while. It would be difficult to enter this place without special permission.

He circulated a glance, then saw the female dressed in the Assassin Guild about to enter the palace. Zhou Ying hurriedly approached him.

"Sister Chu Xin." Zhou Ying immediately called out to him, making the woman turn her head.

"Zhou Ying? Why are you here?"

"I heard Miss Gu is critical, my teacher also went here. I've come to see Master all the time."

"You know Miss Gu?" Chu Xin asked again.

"We met at an inter-palace meeting."

"Ah, so it seems. Come with me. We have the same goal."

They passed through the palace gate smoothly.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

"So that's the reason Gu Yuena was able to get through the crisis of her lifetime?"

Bai Youzhe was currently interrogating the two cats that were always with Gu Yuena. There's no way these two cats don't know.

Although it was a bit difficult to hear it from Xiao Hei, but fortunately Xiao Bai was able to cooperate—given that Xiao Bai was once part of the Tianshuang Palace guarding the northern mountain ice jade.

Xiao Hei still did not have a good impression on Bai Youzhe. Well, even though he was very grateful for saving his nona's life, it remained that the man's motive was suspicious.

Xiao Bai who had been telling the matter since 6 years ago nodded, asserting Bai Youzhe. "But ... Miss still could not use her full strength to defend her life. The current leader of the Linghun Hall managed to get Miss to use the same means when fighting you first. Because the effect of its power was enormous, the consequences were more fatal. If there were no pearls of life from Yang Xinyuan, Miss would not be able to be saved."

"That Xinyuan?"

"Do you have to know who Miss has been meeting lately? Take it easy, Miss is currently very neutral and not interested in any relationship." Xiao Bai clearly knew Bai Youzhe's worries.

Indirectly, Yang Xinyuan saved Gu Yuena from death. Surely the man was hoping that Gu Yuena came to him, thus giving the pearl of life as a test.

Coincidentally, the pearl of life broke apart due to the pressure of the explosion, only to bring Gu Yuena to safety. Otherwise, Bai Youzhe could not think about it anymore.

Regarding the magic of immortality, as long as the blood poison was still on Gu Yuena, anytime she could experience a critical period again. Immortality magic could not completely suppress the poison, nor could ice jade. Because it was the phoenix blood innate curse.

A lot has happened in the past few days.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

For several days, Tianshuang Palace experienced its usual period of silence since the furor hit. The king's private palace was again deserted as usual, as if everyone had forgotten what had just made the entire palace splash.

Su Churan had recently gone to the king's private palace to visit Gu Yuena who was still critical. Chu Xin wholeheartedly took care of him day and night and replaced him with clean clothes. The alchemist old man also often came to control the condition.

After a few days, Gu Yuena finally opened her eyes. Well, even if the wound has not healed completely, it can at least open its eyes and talk again.

In reality, the girl was empty.

Gu Yuena remembered, he should have died in the ravine. He kept wondering where he had been since awakening because there was no one by his side.

There's no way he's in heaven, right? He would believe that he was in hell.

The thing that filled his brain turned into that life and death battle. He wondered, did he get his revenge? He was afraid, that person was still alive and his efforts were in vain.

After all, he himself is still alive.

In the midst of Gu Yuena's disarray, someone walked into the room and approached her. Gu Yuena pitched her head, looking at the familiar man approaching her.

"Bai Youzhe?" Gu Yuena was surprised.

Right, earlier he had thought that he saw Bai Youzhe before becoming unconscious. But ... he thought it was just an illusion.

Bai Youzhe looked delighted when she saw that Gu Yuena was already awake. He hurriedly walked over and sat on the edge of the bed looking at her.

However, it made Gu Yuena look at him strangely.

They're not that close anymore, you know.

"Why am I here? Where am I?" ask Gu Yuena.

"The pearl of life brought you here, Tianshuang Palace." Bai Youzhe answered honestly.

Gu Yuena was even more surprised.

Pearl of life ....

What was that thing that Yang Xinyuan had given him earlier? He remembered what Yang Xinyuan said, that there would be conflict at inter-Palace meetings.

What did Xinyuan already know this would happen?

"You're fine, I'm calm. Rest, I'll call the medics to check on you. No need to think about anything else." Bai Youzhe immediately left, but Gu Yuena's voice stopped her.

"Wait a minute."

Bai Youzhe looked at him wondering.

"You must know my condition, that's why I'm coming back to life. The fire poison almost killed me just now, I wonder what made the fire poison disappear." Gu Yuena knew her own condition the most. After the tragedy, the fire poison should have killed him quickly. But why is he still alive?

"Ice cry. That's all you need to know." Bai Youzhe slightly smiled, then went to call the medics to take care of Gu Yuena further.

Seeing Gu Yuena still being able to think critically and ask questions as usual, he thought the girl was really fine already. Bai Youzhe was already feeling calm for now.

But still, he had to call the medics to treat Gu Yuena's remaining wounds.

Gu Yuena simply stayed in place while contemplating. When he checked his strength just now, it seemed like he had broken through to level 8 due to that battle.

Whether it's good or bad news.

The medical staff came quickly and gave maximum care. However, Chu Xin's presence caused Gu Yuena's mind to be turned into a shock.

The woman just blurted innocence.

Gu Yuena squinted her eyes. It was only fitting that Bai Youzhe knew so many things. It turned out that there was a spy who was very close to him, after all. That guy is really sneaky.

"Miss, don't be angry anymore. I really did not reveal your bad habits that like to sleep. I swear." Chu Xin said as she persuaded Gu Yuena who was being cold to her.

The medics had already left so Chu Xin acted like a ladyboy apologizing to her employer shamelessly. Chu Xin still regarded Gu Yuena as his nona.

"Miss ... Do I have to make fried chicken so you don't get angry? For a few days Miss has not eaten, I will cook it for Miss. As usual."

"I thought you were dead, or running away when the Gu House was destroyed." Gu Yuena suddenly spoke in an annoyed tone.

Chu Xin lowered her head, "I couldn't tell Miss back then. His Majesty asked me to be by Miss's side. In addition to seeking information regarding the Gu Residence, it is also to protect Miss from bad people. There really is no bad intent."

Gu Yuena sighed as she pinched her throbbing forehead. Never mind. After all, Chu Xin had treated her well and had often comforted her. He won't count on this boy.

"Other times, I won't forgive you if I find out what you're saying is a lie." Gu Yuena gave a warning.

Chu Xin nodded quickly. "Miss, I'll make you some food now. Then, Miss Su seems to be outside."

"Let him in."

Chu Xin went towards the door, opened the door for Su Churan and went to cook some food.

Su Churan who entered the room immediately approached Gu Yuena. He sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Gu Yuena closely.

"You all right?"

Gu Yuena turned the eyeballs. "I'm dying, don't you see?"

Su Churan was grinning the horse. "It turns out you're okay. I'm so worried. Can't it come in such an extreme way?"

"Not my will." Gu Yuena glanced at Su Churan meticulously. The girl looks more and more mature. He barely recognized her.

"I heard a lot about you from my students."

"You have students?" Gu Yuena was stunned. There are fools who want to patronize this eccentric woman.

"Zhou Ying's. You must have recognized him." Su Churan smiled proudly.

"Ah, he's my fan." Gurus and students are both eccentric. They fit perfectly.

"Your little friends are worried all the time. They interrogated me about your situation, really don't know the rules."

"Just be angry."

"I can't bear it. I might be able to scold Bai Youzhe or the other disciples, but the three of them are so cute."

Gu Yuena only confirmed what Su Churan had said. Then he remembered something. "Yuansu Palace ...."

"Bai Youzhe has already sent people to give them protection in Tianshuang Palace. You don't have to worry."

"The news must have spread."

"Well, the Linghun Hall is very cruel." Su Churan remembered the one thing that made her heart lash out. "I'm so sorry for you."

Gu Yuena was silent for a while, feeling uneasy. "I'm not sad, don't look at me like that."

"Yes, you're not sad." Su Churan smiled slightly.

Although Gu Yuena said so, it was only part of the consolation. In fact, Gu Yuena had suffered such a heavy blow that she could not express it.

"Bai Youzhe is watching you a lot. He hasn't slept in days to see how you are."

"How many days?"

"Five days."

Gu Yuena was speechless, but her face remained indifferent. "The fool must be given counsel."

"Who would dare to give him advice? In this world, only you can make him obey. I even have to apologize after scolding her."

"Don't repeat it, it pisses me off."

Su Churan screeched herself and sighed. "Well, are you gonna keep lying to yourself like this? Clearly the pearl of life has already shown it, that in your heart there is still Bai Youzhe. You believe it more than yourself."

"I'm just fucked up." Gu Yuena did not want to admit it.

"Whatever."

Su Churan could only pray inwardly for Gu Yuena to gain enlightenment over her gloomy heart.

News Gu Yuena had come to a realization that she had come out of the palace. Many wondered who Miss Gu was that could attract the attention of the iceberg. But none of them are allowed to see for now.

Except for a few people who sullenly entered the palace using his great identity.

The figure of a slender woman with a beautiful and charming appearance. Seemed to have an innocent face like a child, accompanied by a calm and dignified temperament like a princess. His foot stepped into the palace accompanied by a servant behind him.

His arrival was warmly welcomed by the palace maids, but clearly got a flat reaction by the officers coming from the Assassin Guild. They did not expel because they still respected an elder behind the woman.

"I heard Miss Su came to the palace to visit guests. Ming Chin came to visit, brought some hands for our guests and had a little chat with Miss Su."

The woman told a servant to tell her arrival. It could be seen, the waiter who came with him brought a tray of fruit and some simple food.

She was Ming Chin, the daughter of Elder Ming who had great influence in Tianshuang Palace.
