Feng Hengkong silently kept his Profound Transmission Jade in his hand, and his expression was incomparably grim. Conquer the Blue Wind within three years; that was the time limit he had set for himself three years ago. Now, three years had already passed by, and yesterday, was when his troops had finally arrived at Blue Wind Imperial City and prepared to pierce the very heart of Blue Wind Nation… Yet somehow, at the final hurdle, a huge, unfathomably-bizarre change had occurred.
This caused an extremely ominous premonition to be birthed in his heart.
The smoke in front of Blue Wind Imperial City had completely subsided, and there was not even a need to tidy up the battlefield.
The remnants of the Blue Wind Army were dealing with their own injuries and dazed expressions would appear on their faces from time to time, as if they still whether they were awake or in some sort of dream…
They, who had already resolved to die, had ended up living, and not a single Divine Phoenix soldier stepped into Blue Wind Imperial City that they had fought desperately to protect… all of the soldiers of the Divine Phoenix Army, hundreds of thousands of them had died!
At the hands of one man… in the blink of an eye, they had been reduced to miniscule ashes.
None of them would ever forget this scene for the rest of their lives. Not only that, but when that person slowly descended from the sky… their eyes, nerves, and blood all trembled fiercely… It was as if they were looking at a demon god of destruction who had come from the depths of hell.
It was the only prince consort of the Blue Wind Royal Family, the current Empress Cang Yue’s husband. Three years ago, he had shaken the Profound Sky with his might. Now, this person who had nearly become a myth had returned… No, the present him was no longer a “myth”… The power that he had shown was something only the gods of legend possessed!
Blue Wind Imperial City, which used to constantly bustle with noise and liveliness, had become exceptionally lonely and desolate today, and a bleak atmosphere had penetrated the place. Following the arrival of the Divine Phoenix Army, a large majority of its residents had already fled far away, and only a small remainder of the people who had stayed here for generations refused to follow suit, deciding to live or perish together with their capital. But in the end, the outcome was completely unexpected. The Divine Phoenix Army did not break into the city. Instead, all seven hundred thousand of them were completely obliterated, and the prince consort, who had fallen in the Divine Phoenix Empire three years ago, had come back alive… In a moment, countless cheers and tears filled the place which was the last bastion of the Blue Wind Nation’s honor and dignity.
The legend of obliterating hundreds of thousands of Divine Phoenix Soldiers in a single breath… this caused them to be able to see a fantastical hope emerge within their boundless shock.
The person who kept producing miracles for the Blue Wind Royal Family and Blue Wind Nation… he was not dead! And this time, would he once again bring about a miracle for the Blue Wind Nation which was on the verge of collapse…
Moon Embracing Palace.
This place was the residence of Empress Cang Yue when she was still a princess, but even though she ascended to the throne, this was still her resting place… because this was also where she and Yun Che became man and woman. For the past three years, it was the only place where she could find any rest and peace.
On her phoenix couch, Cang Yue had descended into a deep and undisturbed sleep. Perhaps it was because she was simply too exhausted, or perhaps it was because she was not willing to wake up from her dreams. Yun Che sat beside her, holding her small hand… From the moment he had carried her here, he had maintained a constant vigil by her bedside, not leaving even for a moment. His eyes also never left her once as his conscience was filled with boundless self-recrimination and grief… After they had married, he had only spent one month with her before leaving for Frozen Cloud Asgard, and he only returned to bid farewell to her as he once again had to leave for the Divine Phoenix Empire… and after that, the only thing that had come back was the cold and heartless news of his demise. Then came the pain of her father’s passing… and the calamity of impending doom and a heavy burden which would overturn the heavens…
