Chapter 1409: He Only Wanted Her to be Happy III
Imperial Palace.
The palace was decorated with colorful lights.
Feng Ruqing stood among thousands of people in a red dress, enchanting the whole city.
Nalan Yan held the long sword in her hand. Her gaze was stern as she looked at the group of skilled masters in front of her.
The blood had stained the palace hall red, dyeing all the lanterns inside.
Mu Qingqin protected Gu Yiyi behind him. The man’s body was like a giant mountain standing still, giving her a full sense of security.
For some reason, every time she was protected by a man like this, Gu Yiyi’s heart could not help but beat faster. She felt warm and at ease.
“Xiao Qing!”
Tang Yin was anxious and hurriedly rushed toward Feng Ruqing as she saw the people from Deities Gate had already surrounded her.
Right at this moment…
Nalan Jing tightly pulled Tang Yin’s hand and pushed her to Qin Yi’s side. “Mother, you help me watch over her. I’ll go to help my cousin.”
Tang Yin was pushed hard into Qin Yi’s arms.
She was stunned and wanted to rush out again, but Qin Yi had already pulled her into her arms, not giving her the chance to leave.
“Yin’er, you’re a girl. What can you do there? Stay here, and don’t move. Your Uncle Nalan and Jing’er will help them.”
Her tightly clenched fists revealed barely controlled anger.
Seeing the empress’s family under siege.. How could she, as a courtier, sit idly by and do nothing?
But she… Still had Dai’er and Yin’er to protect! She could not act recklessly.
Furthermore… These wars were no longer something she could engage in, not even Zhangqian and Jing’er could resist them…
Qin Yi’s eyes were increasingly filled with determination.
‘Everyone bears responsibility for the fate of the kingdom.’
This was the choice she had made back then during the siege of the six kingdoms.
However, this time the enemy was even more powerful… Than it once was…
If Jing’er and her husband could not deal with the enemies, then, after she settled Dai’er and Yin’er, she would also fight for Liu Yun Kingdom!
***
The people had started to kill each other.
Those people from the reclusive world came here to participate in the wedding ceremony, but they were only acquaintances with Fengyun Manor and even Tian Shen Manor.
The relationship was not so strong that they would risk their life and death for these people…
However, these people somewhat agreed with Ye Yi’s words, and they were not foolish enough to make an enemy of the current Deities Gate.
On the contrary…
Those people in Liu Yun Kingdom were much more bloody.
They understood that if the kingdom fell, there would no longer be a home for them in this world.
With the destructive nature of Deities Gate, it would not be possible for them to destroy Liu Yun Kingdom.
Moreover, the disaster they experienced back then had taught them not to retreat in any battle quickly.
So what if they were not strong enough?
At least they were… The people of Liu Yun Kingdom!
Ye Yi’s eyes were fierce. ‘These people are willing to sacrifice their lives for Feng Ruqing…
‘Is it worth it?’
Puff!
A sword slashed his shoulder as he tried to protect Gu Yiyi. Blood flowed out across his chest, staining his robe red.
“Second Uncle!” Gu Yiyi’s eyes were red, almost tearing.
Mu Qingyin saw the worry and heartache in her eyes, but it was too late to respond because another person had already rushed in front of him…
Feng Ruqing immediately noticed it and leaped in front of Mu Qingyin. The long sword in her hand slashed at that person’s chest.
Blood burst out of that person’s chest like a demonic flower blossoming in front of them.
It was absolutely beautiful and fragrant.
“Feng Ruqing!” Ye Yi sneered. “You can’t fight against our Deities Gate. Your people are dying outside this palace… If you don’t want to stain the imperial city with blood, don’t ever think of fighting me!”
