Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Emperor of Nanxuan Kingdom was called Dongfang Xuecheng, and his daughter was called Dongfang Xueyan. Dongfang Xuecheng had married a hundred concubines in his lifetime, but none of them had given birth to a son for him. Dongfang Xuecheng only had one daughter…and that was Dongfang Xueyan.

The imperial preceptor slowly walked out of Weiyang Palace, and the corners of his mouth curled up into an evil smile. Then, he walked toward Dongfang Xuecheng’s harem.

The imperial tutor walked into Concubine Li’s room. When Concubine Li saw the imperial preceptor, she slipped and fell into his arms.

“Little vixen, you can’t wait anymore?” The imperial tutor hugged Concubine Li and asked.

“How is that old thing? Is he dying?” Concubine Li looked at the imperial preceptor and asked.

The imperial tutor smiled faintly and said, “Don’t worry. That old thing is not far away from death. However, I didn’t expect that my magic spell could kill so many sons and daughters of that old thing. It actually allowed Dongfang Xueyan to survive.”

“Isn’t she just a daughter? Could it be that she can obstruct our important matters?” Concubine Li asked.

“That old thing actually wants to pass the throne to his daughter!” The imperial preceptor hurriedly said.

“What?” Concubine Li was shocked.

At this moment, the imperial preceptor touched Concubine Li and smiled sinisterly. “Don’t worry, I’ll find an opportunity to get rid of that Dongfang Xueyan. This Nanxuan Kingdom will belong to us sooner or later!”

Ye Chen led his army and charged toward the Imperial Capital of Nanxuan Kingdom. The five hundred thousand strong army, together with Yang Xuan, Luo Shuihan, and Wu Yue’s leadership, acted as if the heavens were helping them. In ten days, they had directly attacked the three checkpoints of Nanxuan Kingdom!

After five more checkpoints, they would reach the Imperial Capital of Nanxuan Kingdom — Tianyang.

The five hundred thousand strong army of Nanxuan Kingdom had been destroyed by Ye Chen. The remaining defenses were weak, so they were no match for Ye Chen at all.

Ye Chen and the others came to the foot of Zhengyang Pass. Zhengyang Pass was the stronghold of the Nanxuan Kingdom. It was easy to defend but difficult to attack. It was the most difficult checkpoint to take down in the Nanxuan Kingdom.

The general guarding Zhengyang Pass was called Zhu Qinghe, and he was an extremely famous general of the Nanxuan Kingdom!

Zhu Qinghe stood on the city walls and watched as Ye Chen’s army arrived at the foot of the city.

“General, the soldiers of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom are coming menacingly. As long as they can get past us, they will head straight for the capital. By that point, no one will be able to stop them. What should we do?” The deputy general asked from the side.

Zhu Qinghe looked indifferently at the 500,000 man army in the distance and said indifferently, “The Nanxuan Kingdom is our land and we will not allow outsiders to invade. Therefore, no matter what, we must defend this place!”

“If we lose, the Nanxuan Kingdom will be finished!”

“Pass down my orders. No matter what price we have to pay, we must defend Zhengyang Pass!”

…

Ye Chen led his army thirty miles away from Zhengyang Pass. He looked at Zhengyang Pass indifferently.

At this moment, Wu Yue came before him.

“Your Majesty, we have been winning continuously these past few days. I think we can attack Zhengyang Pass now!” Wu Yue said.

Ye Chen asked indifferently, “Have you found out who is guarding Zhengyang Pass?”

Wu Yue hurriedly said, “The one guarding Zhengyang Pass is Zhu Qinghe. Zhu Qinghe was the former commander-in-chief of the Nanxuan Kingdom. However, because he offended the imperial preceptor of Nanxuan Kingdom, he was demoted by the Emperor to guard Zhengyang Pass.”

“The former commander-in-chief of Nanxuan Kingdom?”Ye Chen asked indifferently.

“That’s right. It was precisely because Zhu Qinghe was demoted so that Wang Siqi had the chance to be the commander-in-chief of the three armies. After winning a few battles, he was called the military supreme-ruler of Nanxuan Kingdom.”

“Actually, the true war supreme-ruler of Nanxuan Kingdom isn’t Wang Siqi, but Zhu Qinghe.”

After Ye Chen heard the piece of information that Wu Yue had sent people to investigate, he took a deep breath.

The true war supreme-ruler of Nanxuan Kingdom. It seemed that Zhengyang Pass was not easy to defeat!

“He was the war supreme-ruler of Nanxuan Kingdom in the past. We must be careful. First, send ten thousand people to test out what Zhu Qinghe is capable of!” Ye Chen said indifferently.

“Yes!” Wu Yue received the order and left.

…

Nanxuan Kingdom.

A guard knelt beside the princess.

“Princess, I secretly sent people to Weiyang Palace today. However, the imperial preceptor has ensured that the place is heavily guarded. He can’t find out about His Majesty’s situation!” The guard said quickly.

“Wang Qing, you’ve worked hard!” The Princess said calmly.

“I will do anything for the Princess!” Wang Qing said quickly.

At this moment…the Princess said indifferently, “Father listened to the imperial preceptor’s slander, demoted General Zhu, and used Wang Siqi, which resulted in our Nanxuan Kingdom’s great defeat!

“Moreover, if he hadn’t attacked the Eastern Imperial Kingdom, our Nanxuan Kingdom wouldn’t be in such a situation. If the imperial preceptor isn’t removed from his duty, our Nanxuan Kingdom would never have a day of peace.”

Wang Qing hurriedly said, “I’ll go and kill the imperial preceptor now!”

“Don’t be rash!” The Princess hurriedly said.

“The imperial preceptor has been accumulating money in the imperial court all these years. I’m afraid that the entire imperial court is in his hands. Moreover, those disciples of his are highly skilled in martial arts. Perhaps his martial arts are not low as well. You won’t be able to kill him!”

“Then what should we do?” Wang Qing hurriedly asked.

Dongfang Xueyan said indifferently, “Continue to monitor the imperial preceptor’s movements. Report to me immediately if anything happens!”

“Yes!”

At this moment, a spy came in and reported, “Princess, something bad has happened!”

“What’s wrong?” Dongfang Xueyan hurriedly asked.

“The Eastern Imperial Kingdom has already led their army to Zhengyang Pass. They are preparing to attack Zhengyang Pass!” The spy hurriedly said.

Hearing this, Dongfang Xueyan was instantly shocked.

“How can it be so fast?” Dongfang Xueyan could not believe it.

There were three checkpoints between Changlin Pass and Zhengyang Pass, but the Eastern Imperial Kingdom actually used less than ten days to take down these three checkpoints. How could she not be shocked by the speed of their march.

“The Eastern Imperial Kingdom is coming menacingly. I only hope that father will be able to recover soon!”

Within Weiyang Palace.

Dongfang Xuancheng’s face was pale as he leaned against the bed.

At this moment, the imperial preceptor stood beside the old Emperor.

“Your Majesty, the Eastern Imperial Kingdom has already reached Zhengyang Pass. As long as Zhengyang Pass is broken, no one will be able to stop his footsteps. At that time, I’m afraid that our Nanxuan Kingdom will be in danger!”

The moment these words were said, the Emperor’s face instantly turned pale!

Pu —

He immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

“Your Majesty!” The imperial preceptor hurriedly held him up.

“Cough cough…”

“Imperial preceptor, do you have a plan to retreat the enemy?” At this moment, the Emperor hurriedly asked.

“Your Majesty, your body is currently unwell and there’s no one in Nanxuan Kingdom to take charge of the overall situation. I’m afraid that Nanxuan Kingdom is in danger. The current plan must have someone step forward to lead Nanxuan Kingdom. Otherwise, our Nanxuan Kingdom will be destroyed,” the imperial preceptor hurriedly said.

“Alright then. Immediately hold the coronation ceremony. Let my daughter ascend the throne and lead our Nanxuan Kingdom.”

Hearing these words, the imperial preceptor’s expression changed. He said indifferently, “Your Majesty, do you think so highly of Princess Xueyan?”

Dongfang Xuancheng said weakly, “I only have one daughter. Other than her, who else will inherit my throne?”

At this moment, a sinister smile appeared on the imperial preceptor’s face.. “Your Majesty, this humble subject has been by Your Majesty’s side for so many years and has always been conscientious and conscientious. Have you never considered this humble subject?”
