  “Yuan Biao! Yuan Biao! Capture him!” The Emperor screamed, suddenly leaping to his feet. Jun Xie would forever be a thorn in his heart! Only when Jun Xie is eradicated, and the Ring of Imperial Fire taken from him, would he be able to feel secure.

  Yuan Biao immediately charged towards Jun Xie!

  But before Yuan Biao could even get close to Jun Xie, a white figure was suddenly standing before Jun Xie to block his way, and with Yuan Biao’s charging in, the figure in white suddenly threw out a single palm strike that flung Yuan Biao upwards, sending him flying through the air!

  Yuan Biao fell heavily as he landed on the floor, and he vomited out a whole mouthful of blood!

  The Emperor stared wide eyed in utter disbelief at what he was seeing. He saw a highly handsome looking youth dressed in all white standing before Jun Xie, and he could see that the youth’s cheeks were faintly tinged with a pinkish flush.

  “I have been idle for so long, it’s finally time to stretch myself a little.” Drunk Lotus gestured with his hand at Yuan Biao, his chin lifted up in arrogance, as he stared down at Yuan Biao who was vomiting blood out of his mouth.

  “An insignificant pest like you and you think yourself fit to lay your hands on my Master?” **

  Although Yuan Biao wasn’t the most powerful fighter in the Fire Country, but he was nevertheless considered to be extremely strong. So, no one would have ever thought that the revered Commander of the Imperial Guards would be struck down by a slenderly built and weak looking handsome young youth with just one move, and had even vomited out blood from the strike! That was just too incredulous to believe!

  The Emperor was suddenly at a loss on what to do. At that moment, he suddenly noticed that Lei Chen was walking on his own accord to stand beside Jun Xie.

  “Lei Chen!”

  Lei Chen stood silently beside Jun Xie.

  Jun Wu Xie lifted an eyebrow as she looked at the startled Emperor, before turning her gaze over to see the Prime Minister still kneeling upon the ground, the shivering Lei Fan sprawled in a writhing heap and the highly malevolent expression on the Empress’ face. She then slowly opened her mouth to speak: “Is Your Majesty satisfied with the great performance I have arranged for you today?”

  “What are you saying…..” A cold sensation of unease began to grow within the Emperor’s heart. The foreboding dread was so strong that it suddenly caused his temples to throb painfully.

  **( In Chinese its”Owner” – 主人 ) MistyCloud’s note: was contemplating 1) Owner 2) Mistress 3) Master, and went with “Master” as Drunk Lotus is an intelligent being capable of coherent thoughts, hence, he should know enough not to give Jun Wu Xie’s identity away. I might be wrong though… X D

  Volume 10

  Chapter 938: “Tenth Slap (2)”

  Jun Wu Xie’s cold eyes swept over the Emperor’s face and she asked him softly: “What do you think?”

  The Emperor’s body stiffened up, his eyes flashed as he stared at the messy chaos in the main hall. His Empress and his most trusted Court Official had betrayed him, and two of his sons there were not biologically his…..

  Suddenly, the Emperor’s eyes went wide in shock and he slowly turned to look at Jun Wu Xie, when he suddenly sprung up from his throne!

  “It’s you! You arranged all of this! Is that right! ?”

  Jun Wu Xie did not refute him but nodded her head, completely unabashed.

  The Emperor felt an icy chill shoot up his spine, his entire body suddenly went cold.

  “What a venomous mind you have! Absolutely noxious! ! !”

  Jun Wu Xie was however indifferent as she said: “Your Majesty, do not be mistaken. All of this is real. All I did was to merely dig out the truth that was hidden and show them to you. I exposed all these hidden plots and secret conspiracies in your harem for you, aren’t you intending to thank me at all?”

  The Emperor’s rage suddenly got stuck in the middle of his chest and he had no answer to that as his hands started shivering while he stood frozen in his spot.

  [Thank him?]

  [How can he expect him, the Emperor to thank him?]

  The truth was horrendously ugly, suddenly upending and tearing apart his once stable life in an instant. His spouse, his children, his most trusted subordinate, had all betrayed him in one single day. And then, he had found out that he and his two sons would no longer be able to father any children. Every single revelation was a hard blow to him and any single one on its own would be too much for a man to take, and Jun Xie had exposed them all on the same day!

  The Emperor was not given any warning or time to prepare himself, and just had just shoved the blood dripping truth into his face!

  “Guards! Kill him now! Kill him!” At that very moment, the person the Emperor wanted to get rid of the most was not the Empress, not the Prime Minister, not Lei Fan as well, but Jun Xie!

  The Imperial Guards in the main hall suddenly managed to regain their senses when they heard the Emperor’s roar and the all charged uniformly at Jun Xie standing behind Drunk Lotus.

  Jun Wu Xie looked on calm and composed at all that was happening. Suddenly, she pulled out a white ball and threw it at the charging Imperial Army Guards!

  The white spherical ball suddenly exploded into a blinding flare of light. The light expanded and grew, gradually reaching epic proportions!

  The flare of blinding light then faded away.

  A gigantic and unbelievably humongous pure white Spirit Beast suddenly manifested within the main hall! Its height was astounding tall as its body forcibly broke through the Imperial Palace’s main hall’s roof!

  A rain of rubble and loose stones fell from high above, falling onto the Imperial Guards around it. Its colossal sized body had suddenly formed an impassable barrier, between the Imperial Guards and Jun Xie!

  The Imperial Guards were startled to see such a huge Spirit Beast before their eyes, as the hands gripped around their blades began to tremble.

  They had never seen such an incredibly huge Spirit Beast before!

  Lord Meh Meh appeared in its original form and it shifted its humongous body slightly. In a blink, Lord Meh Meh’s highly nimble and amazingly fast tails had quickly plucked out all the Imperial Guards from the main hall!

  Howls tore through the air! Lord Meh Meh then quickly went out of the main hall and stood guard outside in front of the doors, keeping all the Imperial Guards from entering the main hall a single step!

  The Emperor stared with his mouth agape at the gigantic Spirit Beast, unable to believe what his eyes were seeing. More than a hundred Imperial Spirit Guards and they were all forced out of the main hall in a blink. Within the main hall at that moment, besides Yuan Biao whom Drunk Lotus had injured and was still sprawled upon the ground, there wasn’t another single Imperial Guard inside.

  “Jun Xie! What do you actually want to do? Don’t tell me you intend to assassinate me, the Emperor of the Fire Country?” Seeing that all the people he had relied on for protection now all disappeared, the Emperor’s face had turned highly pale!

  Volume 10

  Chapter 939: “Tenth Slap (3)”

  Jun Wu Xie instead replied: “Why is it that Your Majesty seems so frightened now? If my memory serves me correctly, it would seem to me that it was Your Majesty who had always schemed to go against me.”

  Jun Wu Xie walked slowly to come to the middle of the main hall, and she stared at the wretched looking Empress and the Prime Minister.

  The Prime Minister looked up in terror as he looked at the delicately attractive looking youth before him. He had only seen Jun Xie from the portrait drawn of him and had not seen him in the flesh. And seeing the youth today, and when his eyes met that pair of clear cold eyes, he finally understood why the group of assassins he had sent to have Jun Xie taken out had all disappeared without a trace.

  This was a youth who was able to toy with the Fire Country’s Emperor and Empress within the palm of his hand. It wouldn’t be that easy to eradicate someone like thi
s that easily!

  The Empress glared at Jun Xie. “It’s you….. It’s all you! Why are you doing this! ? Why would you even do all of this! ?”

  Jun Wu Xie’s exchange of words with the Emperor earlier had made the Empress realise that everything that happened today had all been the work of one person, Jun Xie, who was responsible for it all. Even all the servants in her palace who were abducted must have been carried out by people under his instructions!

  The Empress had never once dreamed that she, who had always reigned supreme in the palace’s Imperial Harem for so many years, would be tripped up by a mere youth as young as Jun Xie, to the point that if Jun Xie had not come forth to admit all of this was his doing, she would still be completely in the dark. It is feared that even right up to the point of death, she would still not know had been the one responsible for putting her into such a sorry state, and the mastermind behind it all!

  The Empress lunged straight at Jun Xie, to strangle the youth that had completely crushed the plot she had carried on flawlessly for so many years.

  But before the Empress could even touch a single corner of Jun Xie’s clothes, Drunk Lotus suddenly appeared in front of her and his foot lashed out like a whip onto her abdomen where she was sent flying a great distance before crashing hard onto the hard floor with blood gushing out of her mouth, reduced to a state highly similar to Yuan Biao!

  “Why would I do that? Don’t you think I did all this because you, the Empress forced my hand?” Jun Wu Xie found it laughable. She couldn’t understand, up till now on this day, how the Empress could possibly have the cheek to question her motives.

  The Empress was feeling as though her entire body had come apart. She lay on the ground as agonising pain wrecked at her body, her eyes fixed on Jun Xie. Jun Xie’s words had hit her like a bolt of lightning, right onto her head!

  Previously, as Jun Xie had “accidentally” seen Lei Fan’s original countenance, the Empress had relayed her instructions to the Prime Minister asking the Prime Minister to have the youth silenced!

  She had tried to have Jun Xie killed first, hence, Jun Xie had only retaliated back!

  When that thought came into her mind, the Empress suddenly froze as she lay on the ground. The eyes staring at Jun Xie had turned from one of hatred to become fear.

  She had never once thought that she would be so soundly defeated by a mere youth, where she lost everything, with absolutely no chance of recovery!

  Lei Fan was still writhing in agony on the floor, the process of his face reverting back as its effects was gradually neutralized putting him under tormenting pain. He could not even speak and could only lie sprawled on the ground, cold sweat pouring out of his body. But his eyes had been fixed on Jun Xie all these while, the fear growing more intense as the events unfolded!

  Even he had not expected that the youth he had initially wanted to win over to his side and then subsequently wanted to be finished off, would turn out to be the very one person responsible for destroying his once bright future!

  He had only needed to wait for another two years where the Emperor would have pulled Lei Chen off his Crown Prince’s seat and he would have become the new heir to the Fire Country, finally inheriting the great might, prosperity and vast lands of the biggest country across the lands. But with the appearance of Jun Xie, all this had been torn apart, where he had been dragged down from being in the high clouds, down into the depths of the bottomless abyss!

  If he could, Lei Fan really wished that Jun Xie had never appeared before him!

  But alas, that was just wishful thinking!

  Volume 10

  Chapter 940: “Tenth Slap (4)”

  Jun Wu Xie then completely ignored the Empress and the others, turning her head to look at the pale faced Emperor.

  The Emperor was suddenly shocked into a harried fluster when those eyes turned to him, almost falling off the throne. He fought to keep himself upright where he barely managed to compose himself as he scanned his eyes across the scene in the entire main hall before his gaze suddenly fell onto the figure of Lei Xi, and his eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope!

  “Little Xi! My good son! Jun Xie is plotting to kill your father! Save me! You must save your father from him!” The Emperor suddenly pleaded loudly when he saw the stunned Lei Xi standing motionless on one side.

  Lei Xi had been petrified by all that had happened in the main hall and he turned his head to look at the wide doors of the main hall, where he saw the gigantic Spirit Beast had blocked up the exit. Next, his eyes turned to look at the Emperor who had lost all his royal decorum from fright and his heart twisted up in fear, as he subconsciously shifted his feet, his mind blank as he turned to walk in a direction towards the Emperor.

  But he had just lifted his foot in the air to take the first step when Lei Chen’s hand suddenly held his shoulder.

  “Big Brother?” Lei Xi asked as he looked at Lei Chen, his eyes filled with struggle within.

  He had been able to exact blood vengeance against the perpetrators today all because of Lei Chen. And from what Jun Xie had said earlier, he had understood that the real mastermind who designed the entire scheme from behind, completely dragging the Empress off her high horse, was in actuality Jun Xie!

  From his perspective where he had been able to avenge his mother‘s death, Lei Xi did not feel the slightest hatred for Jun Xie, but was filled with gratitude towards the youth instead.

  “After having to act dumb for so many years, have you really turned into an idiot?” Lei Chen’s gaze was firm and unwavering as he looked at Lei Xi.

  Lei Xi was greatly startled.

  “At the time when your mother died under such strange circumstances, did the Emperor even order anyone to investigate into the truth? After your mother was killed and you were bullied and ill treated so many times, did he ever think you were his son then? Did he ever shield you in the slightest? When you moved out of the Imperial Palace, did he show you the slightest concern?” Every single word that came out of Lei Chen’s mouth struck deep in Lei Xi’s heart.

  Every single word struck Lei Xi like a bolt of thunder!

  When his mother died then, the Emperor had still been grieving for his beloved Lady Cheng who had passed away from a difficult childbirth, and had not concerned himself with anyone else. Towards the death of a mere concubine, even the funeral rites were carelessly handled and done in a rush, needless to mention that he would bother to order an investigation to look into the truth.

  After that, the Emperor had seemed to forget that Lei Xi even existed, never having once summoned him to see him alone. If not for his surname as Lei, Lei Xi had at many a time doubted that he even belonged within the Imperial Palace.

  Lei Chen’s words had awoken Lei Xi to these undeniable facts. He then retracted his foot and retreated further behind.

  It had been entirely due to the Emperor’s inaction and his full attention having been given to the Empress and Lei Fan, which caused him to hide and cower in fear for so many years, to await the day he would finally be able to avenge his mother’s death.

  If only the Emperor had just spared a tiny bit of concern at that time, the murder committed in cold blood would have already been uncovered.

  The ray of hope that had just risen in the Emperor’s heart was extinguished by Lei Chen immediately, as he saw Lei Xi retreating further back stand behind Lei Chen, his head lowered, unwilling to even look at him.

  All of a sudden, the Emperor roared: “You bunch of venomous and vicious people! You dare to treat the Emperor in this manner! I am the Emperor of the Fire Country! If you dare kill the Emperor, none of you can dream of leaving the Imperial Palace alive!”

  The Emperor was in fear. Under the extreme terror, he had no choice but to shout out with all his might the empty threat, to try to bolster his courage.

  But Jun Wu Xie shook her head lightly as she stared at the panicking and flustered Emperor.

  “Your Majesty seems to have forgotten the reason why you want to
have me killed.”

  The Emperor fell into another state of shock, suddenly seeing Jun Xie slowly raising up her hand, fully displaying the Ring of Imperial Fire within his line of sight, that was worn around a finger on his hand!

  Volume 10

  Chapter 941: “Tenth Slap (5)”

  The Emperor’s eyes flared wide open.

  “What….. What are you doing! ?” The Emperor shouted in a panicked fluster.

  Jun Wu Xie lifted an eyebrow and asked: “What? Your Majesty doesn’t recognize this ring?”

  “What ring! I do not know anything about it!” The Emperor’s heart was filled with terror, as he told himself again and again to remain calm in his heart.

  [There was no way Jun Xie would know the secret behind the Ring of Imperial Fire!]

  [Absolutely impossible!]

  “The First Emperor of your line laid down a Decree, that whenever the possessor of the Ring of Imperial Fire shows up in the Fire Country, regardless of which generation of his descendants ruling at that time, must immediately abdicate the throne, and hand it to the possessor of the Ring of Imperial Fire. Doesn’t Your Majesty remember this?” Jun Wu Xie’s words, had crushed any last sliver of hope the Emperor still held in his heart.

  He fell back defeatedly, slumped into the throne, all colour quickly draining out from his face.

  “How did you know….. The Grand Adviser? It’s the Grand Adviser who told you!” The Emperor’s eyes turned red and bloodshot as he stared at Jun Xie.

  But right at that moment, Lei Chen suddenly spoke up: “It was me.”

  The Emperor turned to stare at Lei Chen, as his face twisted up in disbelief.

  “It was actually you…..”

  Lei Chen fearlessly looked directly into the gaze of the Emperor who was staring at him like he wanted to eat Lei Chen up.
