The Eastern Dragon Goddess

The Eastern Dragon Goddess
Xu Jiao's Father?



The war is over, but that doesn't mean they have to cheer. Many lost their lives let alone the Wei Kingdom which suffered huge losses, it took months to stabilize the kingdom with the help of other kingdoms. Moreover, the security of the western region began to weaken because of the war that had occurred, plus they also had to keep guarding the border of the region in anticipation of attacks from other regions, plus they also had to keep guarding the border region to anticipate attacks from other regions, because under these conditions it was very vulnerable to getting attacks from other parties especially the black flow sect.


The Kingdom of Wei gradually improved despite the loss of many servants and members of the royal family. The whole kingdom helped him a lot, but this was their chance to drop the position of the Wei Kingdom which was included in the top three kingdoms. Not out of pity or what they were willing to help the Wei Kingdom, but because of the existence of a girl whose name had to be underlined in their minds in order not to offend her. Or maybe they want to get closer to the Kingdom of Wei and build friendships just to lick it. Xu Kong had indeed known about it from the start, but he could not resist under these circumstances instead. But that did not make him dizzy but what made him unable to do anything was Xu Lian's existence. From the beginning Xu Lian came they had never spoken a single word, perhaps just a glance. Xu Lian had never spoken to anyone in the Wei Kingdom except Zhang Xiuhuan and Danzi. And also Xu Lian was very rare to go out of his room, I don't know what he was doing in his room. But that does not mean he always shut himself for days, sometimes Danzi will coax him out just dinner together.


As the current atmosphere in the dining room of the palace family was so cold, there was not a single sound even to say hello.


Xu Lian glanced fiercely at Xu Jiao who was currently staring at Zhang Xiuhuan with an adoring look. This was not the first for Xu Lian to catch Xu Jiao looking at Zhang Xiuhuan but the umpteenth time even when they first met.


Zhang Xiuhuan was different from Xu Lian, he was more cool to finish his food regardless of the circumstances around him, even though he knew many pairs of eyes were glancing at him.


Khem...


Danzi cleared his throat to dispel the awkward atmosphere, he glanced at Xu Kong who was now also looking at him.


"What are you going to do after this?" ask Danzi.


Xu Kong seemed silent for a moment before answering Danzi's question, he seemed to be thinking something.


"I will repair the damage and losses incurred, and maybe for my family as well" Xu Kong glanced towards Xu Lian but who glanced indifferently.


Danzi said he understood that he did not want to interfere in this family problem.


"I will leave this palace as soon as possible" Xu Lian stopped his hand that was about to feed into his mouth, his gaze turning towards Danzi who was now beside him.


"Where are you going?" Xu Lian was disappointed if Danzi had to leave, just now he had gained the affection of the old man but now he would lose it back.


"There are a lot of things I have to take care of" Danzi said.


"I'll come!" Xu Lian had better go with Danzi than he would have to stay in this miserable place.


"No you stay here, this is your home" Xu Lian screeched, a place like hell as it once was if it could be said to be home.


"Right what the teacher's grandfather said, you stay here this is your home" Xu Kong tried to communicate with Xu Lian.


Xu Lian turned his face annoyed.


"What a place of torture can be said to be home" he said sharply.


Xu Kong sighed heavily, maybe he would find it hard to apologize to his daughter. But it was different from Xu Jiao who was staring at him furiously.


"You have no manners before you" Xu Jiao said angrily.


"Dad? do you deserve to call him dad?" Xu Jiao was silent as well as her mother who stiffened for a moment.


"You.." said Xu Jiao growled.


"Have you stopped, sorry my daughter is indeed easily provoked by emotions" Xu Lian smiled mockingly when she saw Xu Jiao's misbehaving mother.


The main door of the family dining room was knocked several times indicating that someone was outside.


"Get in" after Xu Kong had allowed him to enter, two soldiers came up to him and sat on their knees beside Xu Kong.


"Your majesty is facing, we are bringing bad news beyond there is a Black Shadow sect that is attacking" the Black Shadow Sect is one of the black stream sects, the kingdom attacked the Kingdom of Wei upon receiving word that the Kingdom of Wei was in a weakened state, making it easier for them to take control of the Kingdom of Wei, but no one told them about the existence of a girl who had a high spirit beast, they would only deliver life.


"How dare they attack my kingdom" Xu Kong stood up and glanced at his two sons to follow him. Xu Yong and Xu Li instantly understood the gaze from his father, the two of them immediately stood up.


"I'm coming" Danzi offered to help and Xu Kong simply nodded his head.


Xu Lian paid no heed to what was happening, he was more cool to finish his meal and Zhang Xiuhuan remained in place following Xu Lian.


"Are you not going to help them?" xu Jiao said after the departure of her father and the others.


"Why should I? why not just you?" Xu Lian indifferently replied.


"The child's base was not in the dark." before Xu Jiao finished her remark, her body could not be moved in the slightest due to Zhang Xiuhuan's aura.


"You know the child of an******** has no right to say that!" Xu Lian stared intently at Xu Jiao who was now in a state of difficulty breathing.


"Stop this!! how dare you do this!!" Huanran slammed the table in front of him. His eyes glared sharply at Xu Lian, daring once he insulted his daughter.


"And how dare you not be polite to me. A genuine imperial princess" Xu Lian said with great emphasis.


"You.." before Huanran acted to attack Xu Lian, Xu Lian had already waved his hand and Huanran's body was thrown until his body hit the wall. Xu Jiao could not do anything to help her mother even her body could not move.


Actually a few weeks ago, he got an amazing fact. He never went out of his room for an alibi. He would go around the kingdom with Zhang Xiuhuan, actually to spy on General Wang.


One day when Xu Lian and Zhang Xiuhuan were trailing General Wang he had no idea of finding a shocking fact. On that night General Wang left in a hurry to the palace storage warehouse, Xu Lian thought he was going to check the contents of the storage but what he saw was General Wang meeting a woman in a robe and a headscarf. Originally Xu Lian and Zhang Xiuhuan could not see the woman who was with General Wang because her face was blocked by the hood, the two of them could only hear what General Wang and the foreign woman were talking about.


"Hu'er we should get out of this palace as soon as possible, also bring our daughter" said General Wang.


"But why?" ask the hooded girl.


"The girl knows all my plans, and if we stay here we won't survive"


"But if we go in these circumstances it will be very difficult, all the borders have been heavily guarded"


"Let it be my business" said General Wang.


General Wang opened the woman's hood in front of him, and kissed her forehead shortly after.


Xu Lian rounded his eyes, when he could see the face of that foreign woman who was none other than Huanran the second empress of Wei Kingdom.
