The Fire of Love the Great Goddess

Eps. 48: Rumors of the Death of a Celestial Concubine

“You've heard it? Tian Jun had punished the Celestial Concubine with his own hands,” a fairy servant, whispering amidst his busyness to another fairy servant.

“The Sky Concubine not only killed the Snow Phoenix King, her own father, but also slaughtered the entire Snow Phoenix Clan and burned Fengyun Island. He said, he was standing on top of the pile of corpses of his own clan with a sword full of blood,” the younger fairy maids were more excited as if he was the one who knew the most among these fairy servants.

“Tian Jun came right after the Snow Phoenix King disappeared. He briefly argued with the Celestial Concubine, before giving ninety strikes of lightning and ninety arrows of fire.”

No matter who and how the news spread, the information regarding the annihilation of the Snow Phoenix Clan on Fengyun Island was already known to all the creatures in the Four Seas and Three Lands. Everyone, including the people in the Sky Kingdom itself, talked about it over time.

The massacre of the Snow Phoenix Clan by Celestial Concubine Yingzhao, was claimed to be quite a gruesome and gruesome bloody massacre. Beings in the Eternal Realm had a long lifespan, they had witnessed many events over time. Not wanting history to be forgotten after death, they recounted all those events to the new shoots who became generations after them.

Of all the major events that have occurred since ancient times ended, the Snow Phoenix Clan massacre was quite large and horrendous. During these thousands of years, ever since Dongfang Yue was born thirty thousand years ago, the Snow Phoenix Clan had been an ally of the Sky Kingdom whose relationship was best among the others.

Emperor Xuan Yi even specially gifted the princess of the Snow Phoenix Clan and put her into the Sky Palace as Heavenly Concubine Dongfang Yue, the emperor of the current generation. The honor the clan received was immense and made everyone envious. But, it was unexpected that the woman who was made a princess and entered the family tree of the Sky Clan turned out to be a monster that destroyed those who had raised her.

“Maybe, Celestial Concubine should have been punished. He had done many despicable deeds since entering the Sky Palace. Five hundred years ago, he had even trapped the disciple as well as the woman that Tian Jun loved to the point of making him die. A few months ago, he slandered the Great Goddess Bai Feng Xian as his gift crusher without checking first. It was just a major event, excluding his crimes during his stay at Tianhua Palace without being known to anyone else.”

“Do not call her Sky Concubine. Ever since he escaped and became a fugitive, the position of Celestial Consort in this palace had already been vacated. After all, such a person did not deserve to occupy the highest noble position in the Four Seas and Five Lands. I guess, the woman has excessive illusions.”

“Then do you think that the Great Goddess Bai Feng Xian will fill that position?” the fairy maid this time lowered her voice. Offending the Great Goddess Qingqiu was extremely dangerous, but she could not help but gossip.

“In my opinion, he will get a higher position than just a Sky Concubine,” said another. The waiter was a bit surprised.

“You mean, she is more suitable to be the Queen of Heaven?”

“Sstttt…. Don't talk nonsense. Tian Jun has still not forgotten his feelings for Miss A-Xian,”.

“True too. But, Tian Jun seemed to really like Goddess Bai Feng Xian. He was even willing to travel far and bring his little pupil home here.”

“Oh, you mean that little brat like a bundle of green moss that almost drowned Tianhua Palace? She's a little disciple of Goddess Bai Feng Xian?”

The other servant shook his head.

“The little goddess was actually a disciple of Lord Ji Meng in the Underworld, only she was transferred to Qingqiu and was under the tutelage of the Great Goddess.”

“Aih. In this world, the Phoenix bloodline might just be the Fire Phoenix and a bunch of Peacocks.”

“Didn't you hear? Tian Jun brought home the Snow Phoenix egg that had yet to experience nirvana. He said, his spirit approached Tian Jun and calmed him down. She is the last descendant of the Snow Phoenix, it will probably also be the only Phoenix Empress in this world.”

Bai Feng Xian, who was at the side palace at the time, listened well to the fairy servants' conversation. The news of misfortune on Fengyun Island had indeed spread. Bai Feng Xian from Qingqiu had never interfered in the affairs of other clans, but upon hearing the details, he felt pity.

His heart suddenly ached when he imagined the entire clan members were taking their lives at the hands of their own daughter. He could not imagine if it befell Qingqiu. Yingzhao, indeed cannot be forgiven. His heart was truly evil and mercilessly cruel.

After all, the clan still had the same bloodline as the Fire Phoenix. Dongfang Yue must have experienced quite a deep sadness at losing the Snow Phoenix Clan. Moreover, the culprit was his own wife. It would be very painful, especially when his hatred was so high that he had to kill him with his own hands.

It was Sang Hui's voice, which instantly rendered the fairy maids speechless a thousand languages. Sang Hui walked up to them, his hand holding his jade fan and swinging it casually.

His expression, like the expression he often shows in front of people. But, anyone could tell that the Tianqi Young God was not happy that they were talking about the tragedy on Fengyun Island, or talking about his brother and his past.

“Y-Your Second Highness, please forgive..” said the server simultaneously. They were certainly not worth it to Young God Tianqi, their only Heavenly Emperor's younger brother.

Sang Hui sighed. He swung his fan, then the fairy maids rushed off half-run. Sang Hui seemed to close his eyes, glancing with the corner of his eye towards the side of the palace. “Sister-in-law, do you still want to hide there and listen to some more gossip?”

“I think I can too. As always, the people in the Sky Kingdom are very attractive,” Bai Feng Xian said as he exited his hiding place.

Sang Hui chuckled. Bai Feng Xian's every word reminded him of their first meeting in Tianwu Palace, when the woman was hidden by Dongfang Yue. Rumors in the Sky Palace always spread faster as there were many mouths that spoke continuously from time to time.

“And I must remind you, I am not your brother-in-law,” Bai Feng Xian continued.

“Calon. I know Tian Jun likes you, and you like him too, don't you?”

“Who said?”

“Aih, in this Sky Palace, who is blind? Even the fairy servants had already talked about it and could see it. Oh, didn't he also take you to Qian Meitian Pavilion? That place was a place he made for his loved ones.”

“I came there a few days ago without her knowledge.”

Sang Hui was surprised, the corner of his lips twitched.

“Then, did you not see anything?”

“In addition to the flower spirit named Xiao Huan who called me master, I only saw some memories belonging to A-Xian.”

Sang Hui patted his own eel. Ming Ye was right, Bai Feng Xian was stupid in terms of love and feelings. He's very insensitive. The clues regarding her and Dongfang Yue in the past had been so clear, but until now she had not noticed them. Sang Hui was very clueless as to why this could happen. Is destiny really like this?

“Sang Hui, is Yingzhao really dead?”

“Tian Jun himself pierced him with ninety arrows of fire and ninety strikes of lightning. Even if it was a High God, his spirit could be ashes without a remnant. Feng Yingzhao has no god marrow, his spirit may have been destroyed since the first arrow pierced him,” Sang Hui said.

Bai Feng Xian sighed. Although he strongly disagreed with Yingzhao's entire act, there was a hint of pity. The woman, was a victim of unrequited feelings. Yingzhao lost his mind because of his obsession with Dongfang Yue, and he justified any means to get his love. Instead of happiness, he destroyed himself.

“Feng Yingzhao reaped what he planted. The punishment, should have been handed down five hundred years ago,” Sang Hui continued.

But, Bai Feng Xian dissolved in his mind and did not hear Sang Hui's voice. He turned around, then said quietly, “Can you take me to where the last Snow Phoenix egg is?”
