Return of the Phoenix Lady

I have been staying in Mucheng, the capital of Mu Kingdom, but today is the first time I have come out! According to my mother, her father Chu Ziyi lives in Rongcheng, a famous and wealthy city in Mu Kingdom, which is about 4 to 5 days away from Mucheng. In her spare time, my mother began to introduce Chu Ziyi's family background. Chu Ziyi's previous generation was just a small business family. Since Chu Ziyi took over his father's business, he began to show his strength and unexpectedly made his family's industry better and better, and finally became the richest businessman in Mu Kingdom. Chu Ziyi has three wives and two concubines. The first wife is the princess of Mu Kingdom. The royal family of Mu Kingdom arranged a marriage to win over Chu Ziyi. It is said that their relationship is not very good; the second wife is Chu Ziyi's childhood sweetheart. The two have a very good relationship. Originally, Chu Ziyi only wanted to marry her as his only wife, but he could not resist the emperor's order, so he had to marry the princess again and let her be the eldest. My mother's mother is the Third Madam. In fact, she was originally Chu Ziyi's concubine. Later, because he was going to marry Liu Hexian, Chu Ziyi was reluctant to let Chu Xier marry, so he made her the Third Madam and let Chu Xianger marry. Chu Ziyi has 3 daughters and 1 son, namely his first wife's daughter Chu Qinger, second wife's daughter Chu Xier, son Chu Shengye, and my mother Chu Xianger. Originally, it was the second wife's daughter Chu Xier who was going to marry Liu Hexian, but Chu Ziyi knew too well that a loveless marriage would ruin his precious daughter's life, so he let my mother marry on Chu Xier's behalf. Now Chu Ziyi's eldest daughter is married to General He Feilong's son - He Yong; the second daughter is married to the Emperor of Mu State. It's really ridiculous to think about it. Chu Ziyi wanted his second daughter to marry a good man, but who would have thought that she would fall in love with the Emperor of Mu State and has not given birth to a child until now; and Chu Ziyi's most beloved son married many wives and concubines, but only gave birth to one son, Chu Xiaochong. Therefore, their whole family pampered him very much, which led to Chu Xiaochong's lawless character and inherited his father's romantic nature.

Han Xing and his group have been walking for four days. During these four days, they have stayed in the carriage most of the time, which made Han Xing very bored. So every time they arrived at a town, Han Xing would have fun before leaving. Today is the last day. As long as they walk through this large forest, they will soon reach Rongcheng.

"Madam, young master, we will be there after walking through a forest. Xiaoqing thinks the scenery here is very pleasant. Would you like to rest for a while?" Xiaoqing's voice came from outside.

"Well... okay, then let the horses and the coachmen rest for a while! Xing'er, it's not good to sit all the time, let's get off and take a walk!" After saying that, Chu Xiang'er took Han Xing's hand and got off the carriage.

"Yeah!" Han Xing responded obediently.

"Madam, I just saw a stream nearby. Why don't we go for a walk there?" Xiao Qing looked at Chu Xiang'er expectantly.

"Haha! Okay, let's go!" Chu Xiang'er happily took Han Xing's hand and walked towards the stream with Xiao Qing.

After passing through a dense forest, we arrived at the stream Xiaoqing had mentioned. Hmm! It was indeed the best unpolluted water! It was so clear that you could even see the fish in the water. Han Xing couldn't help but walk over, squat down, scoop up a mouthful of water with her little hands, and drink it. Wow! It was so sweet!

Chu Xiang'er couldn't help but laugh at Han Xing's cute behavior and said to Xiao Qing, "Xiao Qing, go back and get our kettle!"

Xiao Qing nodded in understanding and said with a smile, "Okay! Xiao Qing will go right away! Haha!"

Han Xing looked at Chu Xiang'er's thoughtful behavior and couldn't help but feel moved. "Mom! You are really my good mother. Xing'er is so lucky to have such a good mother like you. It must be the blessing she earned in her previous life. Mom, Xing'er will protect you!"

"Haha! It's mother's blessing to have a child as sensible as Xing'er. Xing'er, mother will protect you too!" Chu Xiang'er was also very moved.

I played by the stream for a while, but Xiaoqing still hadn't returned. Strange, since this place wasn't far from the carriage! How could this happen? Could it be...

"Mom, why hasn't Xiaoqing come here yet? It's so strange! Let's go back and check on her!" Han Xing was worried about leaving Chu Xiang'er here alone.

"Yeah! Okay!" Chu Xiang'er also noticed something was wrong and frowned slightly.

Han Xing had a very keen sense of smell and could smell blood from a distance. Oh no! Han Xing suddenly became alert. The air was filled with a faint murderous aura. Han Xing felt that there was a person on the tree to the side. His cultivation was much higher than Han Xing's current level, but not as high as Liu Hexian's.

Han Xing quietly approached Chu Xiang'er. It seemed that Xiao Qing was in great danger. The only thing Han Xing could do was to protect Chu Xiang'er, even if it meant exposing himself.

As they got closer, the man in the tree suddenly moved, swooping down with his sword raised. Han Xing had intended to wait for the man to get close enough to cast an attack spell to catch him off guard, and then destroy him in one fell swoop before he could react. But at this moment, something unexpected happened. Chu Xiang'er also spotted the man. Without hesitation, she turned around and protected Han Xing. Using the last bit of her strength, she tried to push Han Xing away, saying weakly, "Run... run!"

Han Xing was stunned, watching the sharp sword pierce Chu Xiang'er's fragile body, hitting her heart. Blood gushed out of her slender body like crazy. Watching this scene, Han Xing's heart ached so much that he could hardly breathe.

"Hmph... idiot! Do you think this kid can escape? Haha!" The man laughed smugly. He was not in a hurry to kill Han Xing. He liked to see others in agony.

Han Xing was awakened from her grief by the man's words. It was him! It was this bastard! How dare he harm his mother!

Han Xing gently put Chu Xiang'er on the ground, stood up, raised his head, and looked at the man with cold eyes.

The man was frightened by Han Xing's eyes and couldn't help but shudder, but then he thought that he was just a seven or eight-year-old child, what was there to be afraid of! He continued arrogantly: "Haha! Are you in pain? Are you so sad that you want to kill me? It's a pity that you can't do it! Haha..."

"Really?" The voice was equally cold.

"Haha! With your small body and the Liu family's famous 'useless young master', do you think you can kill me? Haha..."

Han Xing stopped talking nonsense and suddenly sent out a fireball from her little hand towards the man. The man was stunned when he saw this scene, but he quickly came to his senses and narrowly avoided the attack. "You... aren't you a waste? How could you..." the man said in disbelief.

"Can't you tell whether you are a waste or not? Humph..." Han Xing snorted coldly.

Han Xing no longer cared about his reaction and continued to launch fireballs, one after another, making it difficult for the man to dodge. A corner of his clothes was burned. The man was angry and no longer passive. He raised his bloody sword and attacked Han Xing.

Han Xing calmly dodged the deadly sword strikes, but due to his limited cultivation, he was pierced several times, though only superficially. Seeing the fireballs were ineffective, Han Xing used an earth shield to protect himself while unleashing wood magic, using plants to attack the man. The man's astonishment grew. He hadn't expected the Liu family's notorious loser to possess magical powers, and to possess three attributes. Could this really be the third son of the Liu family? The man began to wonder if he had found the wrong person.

"Girl! I'm here! Are you okay?" Mo Qingyuan rushed over and saw Han Xing's bloody clothes. He was shocked and furious, and shouted at the man: "You bastard! How dare you hurt a girl! I want your life!"

"Wait! Master, leave him to me!" Han Xing called Mo Qingyuan master for the first time. Mo Qingyuan looked at the scene and realized Han Xing's intention, so he had to watch worriedly from the side.

Seeing the man furiously chopping at the plants that were about to attack him, Han Xing unleashed a water spell, Bless the Earth. Suddenly, a gentle rain fell from the sky, and the plants, seemingly inspired, began to grow wildly, their attacks on the man becoming increasingly fierce. The man was gradually losing ground, given the significant difference in cultivation between Han Xing and the man. Han Xing then unleashed ice and gold spells, striking the man, who was completely stunned. In that instant, Han Xing captured him alive.

The man was thinking, he never expected that the useless person in everyone's eyes was actually a genius! And this child was actually a genius in all subjects, how old was he! What would happen when he grew up? And he was actually "her". The man's heart could hardly bear this fact! What had he done? He actually killed the mother of such a genius! It was over!
