Chapter 831 "Tire Them to Death (5)"

“Queen, you’re finally back.”

Breaking out into a chuckle, Bai Yan just couldn't resist after seeing that funny picture of Suzaku acting like a wife that's been left behind. "Yes Suzaku, I'm back now. I've also found Azure Dragon now so there's only Black Turtle left who's missing…."

“Really?” Suzaku's eyes lit up, her smile dauntingly bright, “It looks like I'm one step closer from leaving this mountain now. But Queen, he, is Azure Dragon well?"

After a momentary pause of musing, Bai Yan decides to keep the fact that their friend Azure Dragon has now been reborn as a female. It couldn't be helped, she's afraid this bird wouldn't be able to take the news and faint on the spot.

“Don't worry, Azure Dragon is fine.”

“That’s good then,” heaving a long sigh of relief, "Queen, I need to bring you to meet two people."

Blinking her eyes at first, Bai Yan was taken aback by the suddenness of this request. However, towards that serious face, she couldn't refuse. Making a slight nod: "Alright, lead the way."

“Come Dragony, we’ll go and watch too.” Tagging along with the little la.s.s in hand, Bai Xiachen led his partner up the Demon Mountain using those small little feet of his.

Taking this all in from behind, Fourth Elder was rather puzzled and confused by the little prince's behavior.

When did His Highness have such a good relations.h.i.+p with the little dragon girl? If I remember correctly, wasn't he afraid of getting anywhere near her after she kissed him on the cheek that one time? I guess children will always be children. They will forget something after a short period of time….

…………

Even from afar, Bai Yan could already hear the wailing cries of Jun Ruqing as well as another male and female howling out in pain. It's eerie and creepy to the ear….

Note:  Jun Ruqing is the fox woman who attempted to steal the queen position from Bai Yan and the first to be imprisoned inside this burning flame

What did the other two do?

But before she could ask that question aloud, the answer had already presented itself before her very eyes.

Inside the burning flame, the unknown woman's face and body had become transparently white due to the continuous torture. Despite this fact, her soul continues to persist after so long.

As for the male that's also inside, that face looked ordinary and simple, however, that aura told Bai Yan exactly who this person was.

“Is he the man posing as Di Cang?”

A burning hatred ignites out of the woman's pupil, her glaring eye locking onto the two perpetrators that nearly ruined her family.

“That's right,” Suzaku's complexion darkens as her voice turned cold, "this is all State Teacher's fault. He made this person and hid the fact from His Majesty, that's why there is the misunderstanding. As for the other female, she's a woman who's in fancies the king and the one who instructed this guy to frame the king."

“And…” pausing for a moment, "she's the one who ordered the palace guards to hunt you down, it's her!"

Truth was Suzaku felt very guilty regarding the whole fiasco. The first reason being Little Rice had come to her prior to Bai Yan's departure from the palace and asked about the possibility of someone impersonating one's aura and scent. Naturally Suzaku denied the idea and found it ridiculous.

If only I had the same ability as State Teacher, then I would've known its possible and not let things reach that point!

“Remove the flames for now, I want to talk to them." Bai Yan didn't bother hiding any of the negative feelings she held for these two and sternly gave the order.

“Okay.” Retracting the flame like the obedient follower that she was, Suzaku allowed two of the three transparent souls to fall out of the air and onto the ground.
