Return of the Phoenix Lady

That night, it was another dark and windy night. Han Xing took Ying Rui with him to the remote house they had seen during the day.

After successfully reaching the house and opening the mechanism, Han Xing rushed in with the impatient Ying Rui.

The passage was empty and silent. They arrived at the living room of the stone chamber smoothly. Han Xing turned around and pointed at the stone door in front of him and said, "Your mother is inside."

Upon hearing this, Ying Rui ran over impulsively, pushed open the stone door, and stared inside in a daze.

"You...you are..." Wu Shuang's voice sounded, mixed with surprise and expectation.

"Mom..." Ying Rui moved his lips and a word popped out of his lips.

Han Xing smiled and stepped back, jokingly saying, "What are you doing standing at the door? Haven't you been wanting to see me? Now that you've seen me, you're getting stage fright?"

Ying Rui came back to his senses and threw himself into Wu Shuang's arms, murmuring, "Mom... Mom... I miss you so much!"

"Is it Wuyou? Is it my mother's Wuyou? Wuyou... Wuyou..." Wu Shuang was also extremely excited, and hugged Yingrui's body with trembling hands.

"It's me! Mother, Wuyou is here to pick you up! Mother! You have suffered!" Ying Rui looked at his mother who was originally beautiful but now had white hair and had lost a lot of weight. He then looked at her body and saw unknown chains wrapped around her. Ying Rui was suddenly heartbroken.

"Wuyou! Mom's Wuyou! Mom misses you too, misses you so much, Wuyou! You have been living outside for so many years, and you have been weak since childhood. You must have suffered a lot!" Wu Shuang couldn't help but burst into tears again. Looking at her precious son, her face was full of heartache.

"Mother! We are not suffering. The young master saved us and let us live a good life. But mother..."

"Young Master? Which Young Master?" Wu Shuang was curious. She really wanted to know who was so kind as to save her two sons.

Ying Rui smiled when he heard this and said, "It's far away in the horizon, but it's right before our eyes!"

Wu Shuang reacted immediately and looked at Han Xing who was standing not far from them with a smile.

His angelic appearance immediately caught Wu Shuang's eye. He smiled back and said kindly, "Is this your young master? He has such an extraordinary aura at such a young age. He will definitely be something extraordinary in the future!"

"Thank you for the compliment, madam. I am Liu Hanxing, a friend of Wuguo and Wuyou." Hanxing said with a fist clasped.

"Haha~ Good, good, good! What a good kid! By the way, how did you find this place? Did Wuguo tell you?"

"About that!" Han Xing replied with a smile.

"Oh~ Hey...how could that silly kid Wuguo be so obsessed with that princess..." When Wu Shuang thought of this, he felt angry, hateful and helpless.

Han Xing knew Wu Shuang's thoughts and quickly explained for Ying Chen: "Madam has misunderstood."

"Misunderstanding? What happened?"

Ying Rui then told Wu Shuang everything about how Ying Chen sneaked into the Prime Minister's residence and was captured, and how his cultivation was sealed and he was forced to get married.

Wu Shuang listened, tears could not stop falling, and murmured softly: "Silly child...no fault...my silly child..."

"Mom, so don't blame my brother. He really had no choice but to do this." Ying Rui was afraid that his mother would blame Ying Chen for being stubborn and misunderstanding his good intentions.

Wu Shuang shook her head lightly, looked at Ying Rui with a distressed expression and said, "Silly child, how could mother blame him? Mother is just very worried about his safety!"

"Don't worry, ma'am, we will protect him!" Han Xing assured.

Who is Wu Shuang? She is the daughter of the former prime minister after all. She is much smarter than other women. When she saw Han Xing bringing her son to this place as if they were in an empty place, she looked calm and unfathomable. It was really hard to underestimate her. So with Han Xing's guarantee, Wu Shuang felt relieved a little and said to Han Xing with gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Liu, for helping my two children. I will never forget your great kindness! Please accept my bow!" As he said that, Wu Shuang was about to bow to Han Xing.

Han Xing quickly stepped forward to support Wu Shuang, smiling and saying, "Madam, this is unacceptable. Helping them is only natural because they are my friends. So how can I accept such a generous gift from you, Madam?"

"Mr. Liu, you are too polite. It is really a blessing for my two children to be friends with you!" Wu Shuang looked at Han Xing with emotion. He felt comfortable no matter how he looked at him.

"If you don't mind, you can call me Xing'er." Han Xing also liked this woman who seemed weak but was actually smart and straightforward.

Wu Shuang heard this and smiled heartily, saying, "Okay! Xing'er! Calling me Madam is too strange. Call me Aunt Wu!"

Han Xing smiled back, walked forward, picked up the chain that locked Wu Shuang, and began to study it.

Wu Shuang felt warm at the sight of this and said slowly, "Xing'er, I don't know what this chain is made of, but it's very hard. Without the key, it can't be opened at all."

"So powerful? Let me try." After saying that, he drew out the soft sword from his waist. In an instant, the soft sword became hard and sharp, and the surface was shining with dazzling silver light.

Wu Shuang also has some cultivation, but it's not that great. He has learned everything he should know, for example, silver represents the attribute of space.

Wu Shuang's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at the longsword radiating a blazing silver light before her. Then she looked at the celestial Han Xing. For a moment, she didn't know how to react. She didn't know what to do or say to express her current feelings. Oh my God! This is a spatial attribute! A powerful and rare spatial attribute! There are only a few on the entire continent, and here she is! Oh! What did he just say? He was her son's friend, and he asked her to call him Xing'er. What an honor!

Han Xing pointed the sword at Wu Shuang, who was so frightened that he had temporarily lost the ability to move, and winked at Ying Rui. Ying Rui immediately understood and pulled Wu Shuang aside, exposing the chain for Han Xing to cut.

After a startling metallic sound, Han Xing couldn't help but curse inwardly: "Fuck! What the hell is this thing made of? It can't even cut through a divine weapon! No wonder the old thief Shangguan didn't even post a guard here. Even if he was determined that no one could rescue Wu Shuang, she wouldn't be able to escape on her own!"

Ying Rui took a look at the chain that had only a small crack on it, and began to curse the old thief Shangguan in his heart.

Han Xing didn't believe in evil. "Since you're not afraid of the divine weapon, what about the divine fire? Maybe it can burn through the chain."

So with a flip of his hand, a cluster of bright and scorching flames appeared in Han Xing's palm, and the temperature of the entire stone chamber rose a lot in an instant.

"What is this?" Wu Shuang stared at the divine fire and asked in confusion. After all, she was just an ordinary person among the cultivators, and she had only heard of top-quality things like the divine fire but had never seen one.

"It's the divine fire, mother. You don't have to be too surprised. The young master is a freak! That's why he has such abnormal strength!" Ying Rui looked at the divine fire with envy. Although he said so, his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Han Xing.

Han Xing used the divine fire to roast the chain, but strangely, the chain only turned red and then stopped reacting. Oh my god! What kind of exquisite thing is this? Even the divine fire can't do anything to it?

Seeing this, Wu Shuang smiled helplessly, looked at Han Xing with some despair and said, "Forget it, forget it, this is your fate. Wuyou, you must learn skills from Xing'er in the future. When you have learned it, you must kill the old thief Shangguan with your brother and avenge your father! Mother... Mother will pray for you here!"

"Aunt Wu, don't worry, we will definitely rescue you! Even if the divine fire can't do anything to this thing, we still have the key! Once we steal the key, we can rescue you from this damn place!" Han Xing looked at Wu Shuang steadily.

"This... thank you... thank you! Xing'er! Thank you!" Wu Shuang was so moved that tears streamed down his face. He thought of his previous situation again and couldn't help himself for a moment.

"Aunt Wu, stop thanking me. You're my elder, so why should I thank you for helping you?" Han Xing stretched out his hand, and a faintly fluorescent pill appeared in his palm. He continued, "This is a tonic with Suifengcao added. Aunt Wu, please eat it!"

Wu Shuang looked at Han Xing, not knowing what to think. In the end, all his words turned into one word: "Okay!"

"Aunt Wu, just stay here and we will take care of things outside!" Han Xing gave Wu Shuang a reassuring smile.

"Yes! Mother, whether it is the key to rescue you or the head of the old thief Shangguan!" Ying Rui looked at Wu Shuang firmly.

After saying goodbye to Wu Shuang, Han Xing and Ying Rui also left quickly.
