Chapter 419 – Xuan Boat Changes

Without realizing it, the snowflakes had already drifted down to the end, and the young girl also stopped dancing lightly, looking fondly at the snow layer that quietly melted under her feet. She looked towards Yun Che and pitifully said, “The dance I did, was it good looking?”

“Good looking ……,” Yun Che nodded his head, his eyes hazy, his voice sounding like a dream, his divine sense still immersed in the dance he had just performed.

Such praise, the Snow Princess had heard too many times in her life, but she still laughed happily, “Then …… will it snow a little more, I can then dance for you to see oh. Watching the snowflakes fall, I won’t be able to help but want to fly with them.”

“Good …… “How could Yun Che refuse, that kind of celestial thing, even if he could only witness it for a moment, it was an indescribable enjoyment and luxury, a supremely beautiful picture that ordinary people could never see in their entire lives. He stretched out his hands, facing the sky, condensing Xuan Li ……

But as soon as the Ice Cloud Skill was in operation, a tearing pain immediately came from his chest, and Yun Che let out a low grunt as he quickly reached out and pressed his hand against his chest, and stiffly swallowed back a wave of rebellious blood, but his face, however, turned pale to the extreme.

“Ah!!!” Snow Princess let out a cry of alarm, also do not care to put on shoes, ice lotus like slender feet left the snow layer, stepped on the soft grass, hands outstretched and retracted, nervously asked, “Do you …… you want to be tight? It’s all my fault, only focusing on myself to see the snow, but forgot about your injury …… I’m sorry …… I’m sorry ……”

This Divine Phoenix Empire’s pearl, at this moment, was actually apologizing in fear to him as an “ordinary disciple”, and her slightly trembling beautiful eyes were filled with worry and self-blame. A certain place in the bottom of Yun Che’s heart was gently touched, and he tried to smile: “Don’t worry, I’m fine, I just accidentally touched my internal injuries, and it will be fine if I rest for a little while.”

After saying that, Yun Che had carefully sat down on the ground, closed his eyes and slowly calmed his internal breath, and the discomfort quickly disappeared.

Listening to Yun Che’s words and watching his face gradually regain its rosy color, Princess Snow’s nervousness and self-reproach quietly dispersed before she still sat down in front of him uneasily, her beautiful eyes looking at him without blinking. She also did not know, why she would want to take a good look at this man for a while, perhaps, it was because of some kind of hazy mystery on his body …… This was the first time in her life that she had looked at a person with such focused eyes.

The internal injuries that had been tugged at calmed down, Yun Che opened his eyes, but a glance touched Princess Snow’s gaze, being discovered that she was peeking at him, Princess Snow’s eyes blinked, and she smiled sweetly, this suddenly blossoming smile caused Yun Che’s soul to follow and sway for a moment, and he smiled as well, and said in an apologetic tone, ”Your Highness, it’s all my fault that I’m injured, and not only can’t let Your Highness to enjoy the snow, but also for even worrying about me……. Tomorrow, my injuries will be much better, and at that time, I will make a very big snowfall for Your Highness.”

“Good!” Snow Princess crisply agreed, then slightly tilted her head, “However, can you not call me Your Highness, always feel so awkward.”

“Then …… how should I address Your Highness?”

“My name is Feng Xue’er, you can call me Xue’er or Xue’er ah. Both of these appellations, I like them very much, ‘Your Highness’ doesn’t sound good at all.” Princess Snow said with a smile.

If it were anyone else from the Phoenix God Sect, they would be extraordinarily terrified at this moment. But Yun Che was naturally not among them, as he smiled and said, “Good, then from now on, I will call you …… Snowy Kodama.”

“Hmm!” Princess Snow nodded her head with a light smile, and a pair of star-like beautiful eyes gazed at his face, “Then can I call you …… Brother Lingyun?”

“Of course you can …… However, I prefer that Xue’er Er can call me Brother Yun. Because it feels a bit more intimate than ‘Brother Ling Yun’.” Yun Che smiled and said …… Although there was only a difference of one word, “Brother Lingyun” and “Brother Yun” were two very different concepts. Because the former …… was simply cheapening that Ling Yun brat in a sense!

“Uh-huh!” Princess Snow nodded her head joyfully, “Brother Yun …… Yun brother …… Yun brother …… Hee!!!”

Princess Snow shouted three times in a row, and that sweet to the extreme voice straight away made the bones in Yun Che’s entire body become soft.

Divine Phoenix Palace, Phoenix Grand Hall.

“My son sees Father.” Feng Ximing stood in front of Feng Hengkong and respectfully said.

The period of the Seven Kingdoms Ranking Battle was getting closer and closer, and this was still secondary, the most important thing, was that the door of the Swift Xuan Ark was about to open, although, in these thousands of years, no one had ever been able to detect the secrets in the Swift Xuan Ark, but the fact that it contained earth-shattering supreme treasures was an undoubted matter, so even though it had failed time and time again, the appearance of the Swift Xuan Ark was still a heavenly matter for the Phoenix Godly Clan. Everyone in the Phoenix God Sect believes that if they can obtain the secrets of the Swire Xuan Ark and get the supreme treasure in it, the strength of the Phoenix God Sect will truly be on par with the four great holy lands …… and even have the possibility of surpassing them.

Therefore, Feng Hengkong had been preparing for the matter of the Swire Arcane Boat for this period of time, and rarely showed his face. When Feng Ximing arrived, he didn’t raise his head and faintly said, “What is it.”

Feng Ximing’s head slightly drooped, his posture humble: “Back to father emperor, news just came from the side of Spirit Kun Palace, the boat door xuan mark of the Swire Xuan Boat changed this morning, and according to past records, this change means that the boat door will open after twelve days, four whole days earlier than initially expected.”

Feng Hengkong raised his head, his face grave: “Four days earlier?”

Feng Ximing nodded, “Yes. It was originally established that the Xuan Boat would open just the next day after the end of the Seven Kingdoms Qualifying Battle, but now the door of the Xuan Boat has opened three days earlier, conflicting with the period of the Seven Kingdoms Qualifying Battle. At this time, if we advance the period of the qualifying battle, it is already too late. So how should it be arranged, please also ask Father Emperor to show us.”

Feng Hengkong stood up, his brows slowly wrinkling. The boat door of the Tai Gu Xuan Boat would only be open for twelve hours, every minute and second was precious and must not be delayed. However, when the invitation letter was previously sent to the six countries, it was specifically stated that the top three in the qualifying battle would be qualified to board the Taikoo Xuan Boat, so if they boarded the Taikoo Xuan Boat when the competition was not yet over, how could they be the top three? It was even more inappropriate to start the seven country qualifying battle in advance.

Feng Hengkong pondered for a while, his voice was low and majestic: ”The original schedule for the qualifying battle was set for five days, the matter of the Taikoo Xuan Boat must not be delayed, and the competition period must not be advanced. Since the Tai Gu Xuan Boat was opened four days earlier, then, the schedule can only be compressed to one day!”

“One day? This ……” Feng Ximing’s face showed surprise, this was something that had never been seen before in the history of the Seven Kingdoms Ranking Battle. Moreover, for the battle of the seven kingdoms, just one day would be too tight, or simply impossible to accomplish.

“This is the only way, and it will be up to you to decide how it should be arranged.” Feng Hengkong gazed at him and said, “Exploring the Taikoo Xuan Ark must not be half-hearted, while the matter of the ranking battle is related to the prestige of my divine Phoenix Empire, and likewise cannot be wrong. How to arrange, it depends on your own ability, this is also considered a test for you, is there a problem?”

Even though Feng Ximing was apprehensive in his heart, he certainly didn’t have the guts to refuse, and quickly bent his head and said, “Yes! My son will handle it properly according to my father’s wishes and will never let my father down.”

“Uh-huh.” Feng Hengkong nodded, “In that case, if there is nothing else, retire. Remember to inform the Great Elders and Pavilion Masters and Hall Masters of this matter, so that they can make early preparations.”

“Yes …… Father, my son has another matter, this matter can be big or small, my son thought that it would be better to talk to my father.”

“Speak.”

Feng Ximing cautiously said, “Some days ago, the Phoenix Mountain Range suddenly appeared to be extremely turbulent, when I rushed there, I found that the thirteenth brother’s personal protector, Feng Chihuo, died in the Phoenix Mountain Range, and the death was extremely tragic, and the surrounding area was also destroyed in large swaths, apparently experiencing a tragic battle.”

For Feng Chihuo, Feng Hengkong naturally knew about it, but he obviously wasn’t attached to the matter, and said indifferently, “The Phoenix Mountain Range is only accessible to people from my clan, and since he died there, he was killed by someone from the clan. A quick check will tell us.”

“What Father said is very true. After investigation, Feng Chihuo chased a person who forced his way through the city gates from the south gate in the early hours of that morning, and according to the city guards, it was still early in the morning, so they were not able to see the person’s face clearly, and could only vaguely recognize that the person was less than thirty years old, and then ……”

“No need to say!” Feng Hengkong impatiently waved his hand, “I don’t have the time to pay attention to such trivial matters right now. Since Feng Chihuo was killed by a fellow disciple, it was also because he was not as skillful as he should be, do I still have to personally investigate who killed an unhelpful waste?”

“Father Emperor rest his anger …… Feng Chihuo’s tragic death is a small matter, it’s just …… just …… ” Feng Ximing lightly inhaled a breath. The expression took on an obvious nervousness: “The place where Feng Chihuo died tragically is only less than ten miles away from Feng Jiefeng Peak, and on the other side of Feng Jiefeng Peak is Qifeng Valley where Xue’er is located. Father let people guard the east, west and north of the Qifeng Valley fifty miles away, but no one guards the south side, my son is worried that Xue’er’s side will not be disturbed, or even that person is bold enough to break into the Qifeng Valley ……”

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a chill throughout his body, and the rest of his words could no longer be said. Feng Hengkong’s eyes narrowed, and within his angry eyes, he released an icy and morose gaze.

“So what …… do you want to go to a trip to the Qifeng Valley to see if Xue’er is well?”

“No, the child minister by no means has this intention, just …… just lest someone disturb Xue’er.” Feng Ximing said in fear. He had long anticipated that Feng Hengkong would react this way, but still couldn’t help but say …… that Feng Hengkong was too busy right now, and might actually let him check out …… even if there was only a one in a million chance that he would be able to go and take a look at Xue’er. But obviously, this is still extravagant hope. Feng Xue’er, is Feng Hengkong’s biggest scale …… that can never be touched.

“Hmph! The south of the Phoenix Valley not only has the Phoenix Jie Cliff, there is also the Phoenix Grand Formation, except for the people of my clan, no one can enter. In my Phoenix God Sect, there is no one who is bold enough to dare to break into the Qifeng Valley!!!! Xue’er can instantly transmit sound with me, if it is really disturbed, it will definitely inform me immediately, there is no need for you to worry about it …… Get out immediately!”

“Father Emperor rests his anger, it is …… the child minister who is overthinking. The son of the minister to leave.”

Feng Ximing hastily retreated …… after walking out of the Phoenix Hall, when he turned around, his teeth were clenched in death, and his eyes flashed a cold light of resentment.
