Chapter 1665: A Different Empress Dowager

Feng Wu had no idea that her compet.i.tion with Sefiro had gotten everyone excited.

While Sefiro’s Lightbolt had dashed off, Feng Wu’s Little Master was still swaying its tail back and forth on the ground.

Other people were anxious for Feng Wu, but Feng Wu herself didn’t know what to do either.

She sat down on the ground and looked at the horse in resignation.

She then poked it in the head with a finger. “Hey, aren’t you spoiled? You actually can sleep at such a critical time?”

The horse opened its sleepy eyes with much difficulty.

It glanced at Feng Wu before putting its chin back on the ground and going back to its nap.

Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.

If the crowd had had a little expectation of Feng Wu at first, they were now completely full of despair.

“What should we do now?” Lady Northern Feng asked anxiously, “Is she really going to lose?”

Qiuling stood right next to Lady Northern Feng.

Having been with Feng Wu all these years, she knew Feng Wu better than anyone else, which was why she was still smiling.

“My lady, please don’t worry. Miss Wu will win.”

Everyone had come out now, and Lady Northern Feng was with the empress dowager, who also heard what Qiuling said.

There were many n.o.ble ladies nearby, including Empress Dugu.

“Pfft —”

Mrs Zuo said sarcastically, “Whose maid is that? What an arrogant statement.”

“My lady, I’m Qiuling, Miss Wu’s maid.”

Other people would have been intimidated by Mrs Zuo’s tone, but Feng Wu’s maid wasn’t just anybody.

Qiuling remained unperturbed when all eyes were on her. She then bowed to the empress dowager.

The empress dowager frowned at her. “Are you so confident that your mistress can win?”

Qiuling smiled. “Your Majesty, my mistress has never lost.”

Mrs Zuo suddenly chuckled. “She hasn’t? Then how did she lose her cultivation ability and end up hiding in the border town?”

Qiuling’s eyes flickered.

Mrs Zuo knew perfectly well why Feng Wu lost her ability and ended up in Northern Border City, didn’t she?

Qiuling was filled with hatred, but she remained very calm when she replied with a smile, “Mrs Zuo, may I ask who my mistress lost to?”

Mrs Zuo was about to say that Feng Wu had been defeated by her daughter, Zuo Qingluan.

Her cultivation ability was destroyed, her master was taken away, and her future husband was stolen from her!

However, Mrs Zuo was then reminded of the current situation.

Feng Wu had regained her ability and was making rapid progress.

His Royal Highness was treating her differently and protecting her.

So, did Feng Wu really lose? Mrs Zuo suddenly wasn’t so confident anymore.

She glared at Qiuling. “Even your mistress doesn’t dare to talk like that in front of us; how dare you behave so arrogantly?! Do you have any respect for Her Majesty the empress dowager and Empress Dugu at all?!”

She then gave the order. “Take this girl out and kill her!”

Since the empress dowager and Empress Dugu didn’t like Feng Wu, Mrs Zuo tried to punish her maid to curry favor with the two women.

Lady Northern Feng was about to speak, but someone else spoke first.

“Mrs Zuo, I see that you’re making decisions for me now.” The empress dowager’s cold voice came from the seat behind Mrs Zuo.
