265 The Phoenix’s Tears of Blood
“Pfft, you? I won’t do it even if I ask you to die in my place, you’re not worthy! After I die, don’t touch my body. It’s disgusting!” Zhao Yingying spat, and Zhao Panpan’s expression changed.
“Execute!” Zhao Panpan looked at the sky and shouted. She then turned around and sat on the main seat. She wanted to witness the destruction of the Zhao family with her own eyes! ‘Xiao Meili, you’ve harmed my Prince and ruined my life. I’m going to make the Zhao family die with you!’
With Zhao Panpan’s order, the executioner raised the beheading blade high. Just as he was about to swing the blade, who knew… The originally peaceful sky suddenly changed color. Dark clouds surged in the clear, cloudless sky. Everyone looked up and saw dark clouds suddenly surge out of the blue sky. The dark clouds covered the top and enveloped the entire Jing City, just like the day the crown prince was born. The entire Jing City was in turmoil. The sky was covered with dark clouds, and they looked endless. Just one look was enough to make one’s heart palpitate. It was as if there was a pair of eyes in the sky staring at them all the time, making it impossible for them to escape.
“Rumble!” Thunder rumbled in broad daylight. A huge bolt of lightning with a long tail streaked across the sky above the imperial palace, lighting up the dark clouds that covered the capital. It was a frightening sight. The air was slightly heavy, and everything was gray and blurry, as if the sky was filled with the anger of the heavens.
“Hurry… Quickly look at the sky!” Someone pointed at the sky with a look of horror. They saw snowflakes falling from the sky. It was snowing heavily at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn! Jing City, which had been sunny just a moment ago, was now covered in snow. A group of commoners wearing thin clothes were dumbfounded. They then shrank their necks and hugged their arms to get warm.
“How did this happen?”
“There was once an injustice against Dou’ E, and it snowed in June. Now that the Zhao family is going to behead them in public, it’s snowing heavily. I’m afraid…” Before he could finish his words, he heard a series of cries coming from the distance. That sound…
“It’s a phoenix! It’s the phoenix from six months ago! The phoenix is wailing! It’s a phoenix wailing!” The phoenix with the long tail would cry out from time to time. Its feathers were like fire, so beautiful that people could not take their eyes off it. After the Phoenix flew over, it stood on the execution platform and looked down at the crowd, wailing continuously.
“The phoenix is wailing, and it’s snowing in autumn. I’m afraid the Zhao family has been greatly wronged!” There was a dense crowd of people kneeling outside, and there were even quite a number of people rushing towards the market. The phoenix seemed to understand human language. When it heard these words, it immediately flapped its wings, bringing with it a gust of cold wind.
“Look, the phoenix is angry!” Someone shouted from below! The voice shook phoenix’s head and it screamed at the top of its lungs.
“Oh my God, the phoenix is crying blood. We can’t kill the Zhao family, we can’t kill them!” The commoners shouted even louder.
The phoenix was so angry that her eyes were about to turn red. These people were bullying it for being unable to speak! The Zhao family must be killed! It was here today to cheer. It was finally going to kill this evil person who had eaten its wife. This evil person was finally getting her retribution! It had come to see Jiang Xi being beheaded, not to save her! Phoenix was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood! It let out a cry and pounced in Jiang Xi’s direction with an extremely magnificent momentum! However, when it arrived in front of Jiang Xi, its angry eyes instantly turned into tears of grievance. It stood quietly in front of Jiang Xi and lowered its noble head. ‘Sob, sob, sob. How terrifying. This villain is so terrifying…’ It thought.
“Braised bird wings, dried bird meat, cumin bird thigh, secret braised chicken feet… ” Jiang Xi looked at the phoenix calmly. Her eyes swept over its body and read out the cooking methods of every place he glanced at. The phoenix trembled like a leaf in a sieve. In front of Jiang Xi, the phoenix turned into a chicken.
Suddenly, Phoenix’s face revealed a fierce look. It turned its head and stared at Zhao Panpan. Zhao Panpan’s heart thumped. This is bad! She lifted her skirt and wanted to run! Before Qing Ping could shout out to protect Zhao Panpan, she was flipped to the ground by the phoenix’s wings. Then, the phoenix swiped its claws at Zhao Panpan, whose expression had changed drastically!
“Ah! My eyes!” Zhao Panpan let out a mournful cry as the Phoenix pulled out her big eyes! Her eyeballs were crushed by its claws, and she even stomped twice after that! The fierce light in phoenix’s eyes grew brighter and brighter, and its sneaky look was exactly the same as Jiang Xi’s when he was up to no good!
The phoenix held its head high and let out a long cry at the sky. It was so carefree that people who did not know would think that it had taken revenge. Only God knew that it could not defeat Jiang Xi and could only vent its anger on someone else!
