Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

“I understand now.” The fifth princess picked up the sword from the ground and walked over to Fu Chengxing. This time, her steps were steady and confident.

“Don’t kill me! I am your biological brother!” Seeing the murderous intent in the fifth princess’ eyes, Fu Chengxing was scared to the point of begging.

“Biological brother? It’s a pity you didn’t remember that I was your biological sister just now!” The fifth princess snarled.

The blood drained from Fu Chengxing’s face. He knew it would be hard to escape death today.

“Fine, just kill me then! Either way, none of you will be able to escape. Kill me and you’ll cut off the final thread of the Fu family bloodline! You think that Ling Chuxi’s return means that Nan Xia will survive? Chu Fengyun has already invited Mo Kongyuan to a duel at Cloud Watching Peak, and they will surely fight to the death. After tomorrow morning, Mo Kongyuan will no longer exist in this world!

“Those idiots Fu Chengyu and Ling Yichen also went to join in on the fun. Do you honestly think Mister Chu will let Fu Chengyu return alive? Do you think that Ling Chuxi alone will be able to stop Chu Fengyun? Once Nan Xia is destroyed, all the princes and princesses will only be left with one fate—death! Only I will be able to continue living, so killing me is the same as destroying the last piece of the Fu family bloodline. How would you face Imperial Father then? How will you be able to live up to the Fu family name?” Fu Chengxing roared, his eyes glittering with a maniacal light.

“What?! A duel at Cloud Watching Peak?!” Ling Chuxi’s entire body trembled. She had thought that Mister Mo was at the imperial palace, but only now did she know that he had actually gone to Cloud Watching Peak!

No wonder Fu Chengyu and Ling Yichen had not appeared here despite such a big event happening, they had gone with Mister Mo! That explained why the second prince was taking action now! It was a pity that she had only thought about the fifth princess’ situation, and did not consider that something else might have been happening.

“I’ll leave this place to you. I need to go to Mister Mo.” Ling Chuxi did not dare delay any further and rushed out of the imperial palace.

“It’s too late! Even if you had come back half a day earlier, it would still be too late. Nan Xia Country cannot escape the fate of destruction. Killing me is the same as stopping the continuation of the Fu family line!” Behind her, Fu Chengxing’s frantic shrieking rang out.

“I believe that even if the Fu family is to go extinct, Imperial Father would not want an unfilial descendant like you to live on this earth. It would only sully the blood of our Fu family.” The fifth princess’ cold voice echoed in his ears, and a scream was torn from Fu Chengxing’s throat as her sharp sword pierced his chest, ending his life.

Ling Chuxi knew that the fifth princess had finally taken her first step onto the imperial path. At that moment, a fearsome empress had stepped onto the stage of history.

…

In the early morning, a cold breeze softly swept across the earth, and the icy mist of the wilderness lingered amongst the trees. The slow breeze molded the mist into various shapes, making it seem as if a group of wandering souls were searching for fulfilment in this vast land.

Clattering could be heard from within the army camp as the soldiers dragged their aching, tired bodies out of bed and made their way to their respective positions. Their eyes were dull, and the only emotions on their faces were fear and despair.

No one knew if they would survive today. Perhaps by tomorrow, they would be like the morning mist, floating around and looking at their hometowns from a distance, missing their loved ones as they went.

“I really hope this war ends soon.” A young soldier with an injured leg stood outside the tent, and sighed deeply.
