It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Chapter 722: The Flowers Are Blooming
If it weren't for Liu Yao's black armor, Shi Le would hardly have recognized him.

It was very obvious that he was drunk. If he had stabbed Liu Yao at this moment, Liu Yao would have been killed for sure.

Thinking that he still needed to say a few words to him, Shi Le put away his spear and shouted loudly: "Liu Yao, you didn't expect that today we brothers would also meet in battle."

"Haha, haven't you always wanted to have such a day?" Liu Yao's body was unsteady on the horse, but he could still speak clearly, "You are a despicable villain, harboring evil intentions, you are not a human being!"

"Hahaha, look at what you said, do you think you are a good person? Haven't you always wanted this world and all the wealth in the world?" Shi Le laughed extremely wildly because he saw that his army had surrounded all of Liu Yao's men.

He just exposed his weakness on purpose, making them think that he was defeated and was about to flee. But in fact, he set up an ambush on the bank of Luoshui River in the north of Luoyang City, intending to lure Liu Yao here and kill him.

Guo Jin realized that something was wrong, and shouted loudly to Liu Yao, while also commanding his soldiers to find a breakthrough.

But Shi Le had planned it out long ago and didn't leave them any way out.

"Brother Liu, why don't we compete again today?" Shi Le laughed again.

Hearing this, Liu Yao's expression changed significantly, and he began to sway even more. Because the charming woman suddenly appeared in front of him, saying to him: "I want to see you compete. If you win, how about I brew wine for you myself?"

What did she say later?

Yes, he took off all his outer clothes and was shirtless.

She tucked in his trouser legs and said, "Don't fight too long. I'm hungry."

"Okay." Liu Yao couldn't help but laugh, his eyes full of her figure. "The winner will be decided in three rounds."

"Yeah." Yang Xianrong stepped back, with a shy look on her face.

"What are you talking about? Who are you talking to?" Shi Le on the opposite side was a little confused, because he saw a strange smile on Liu Yao's face, and even a hint of tenderness.

"Come on! Let's have a duel!" Liu Yao got off his horse and took off his armor.

Guo Jin and other attendants on the side shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, don't!"

But Liu Yao seemed to be deaf to everything. He just walked up to Shi Le, patted his chest, and said loudly: "General Shi, if I lose this time, you can cut open my chest and see if I have the world in my heart!"

As soon as these words came out, Shi Le had already recalled the scene of the duel between the two. That time, Liu Yao could have killed him, but in the end he let him go.

So, if Liu Yao's life was taken at this time, would it be considered an unfair victory?

After a moment's hesitation, Liu Yao had already taken action. His movements were extremely fast, and he punched Shi Le on the shoulder with such force that he could not help but step back several steps and immediately gathered his strength to fight back.

The banks of the Luo River were frozen, but the two men still took off their clothes and fought.

Liu Yao drank too much and his legs were already weak.

At this moment, the two of them were fighting on the river bank again. He stepped on the floating ice in the grass, and he slid out and got stuck on the floating board on the shore, unable to move for a while.

It was too late for Guo Jin to come over to rescue him. A spear had already pierced his heart. He didn't even have time to shout out. He could only stare at Liu Yao with his eyes wide open, but he was no longer breathing.

Liu Yao did not look at him at this time, but said to Shi Le: "Go ahead! Quickly!"

"Why?" Shi Le was a little surprised, and even suspected that this was some trick of Liu Yao, so he did not step forward.

But Liu Yao shouted loudly, "General Shi, you have always been defeated by me. Can't you even do this? You are such a coward! Stupid!"

"You are about to die, and you still dare to talk nonsense!" Shi Le was anxious. He took a spear from his servant and pointed it directly at Liu Yao.

"Yes, do it quickly! Cut open my chest and see what's in my heart?" Liu Yao laughed so loudly that the entire Luo River was shaking.

Without any hesitation, Shi Le thrust his spear straight into Liu Yao's heart.

At that moment, Liu Yao looked down and suddenly laughed again.

His bright red blood flowed through the blood hole into the Luo River, and gorgeous flowers bloomed from the floating ice. The blood then moved forward and finally flowed into the Luo River and disappeared.

The soul is scattered and flies away, never to return from the journey west.

……

……

……

"I am Liu Yao."

"I am the daughter of the Yang family, Yang Xianrong." "You are my little queen!"

"Rong'er, let's go!"

……

Those complicated scenes, the world full of smoke, all the faces disappeared in the dust, and there were only a few cold words in the pile of old papers. Those love, hatred and vengeance had long been wiped out, and even if it was reincarnation, we would never meet again.

So what if we are deeply in love?

So what if I'm treated coldly?

Love doesn’t last long, just live every day to the fullest without any regrets.

Write a few words of appreciation——
"The Phoenix's Fate Cannot Be Disobeyed", the story ends here.

It took fifteen months from August 2023 to October 8 to write, and it is about 2024 million words.

This is how writing online articles works. You have to write every day without interruption.

So, I worked really hard, making sure to write, and even forcing myself to write, 4,000 words every day.

During this period, we also need to read literature and materials, and strive to avoid too many things that violate history.

In fact, I also have times when I get stuck in writing. Even when I sit in front of the computer, I don’t know what I’m going to write today, and I only know the plot about five minutes earlier than the readers.

But I didn’t expect that I would finish it after all these bumps and bruises.

The most difficult chapter for me to write was the one about Sima Zhong's death.

According to historical records, Sima Zhong was a fool, but he still managed government affairs for more than 20 years and was still able to write good calligraphy and coherent articles. Was he really a fool? Perhaps he was just hiding his incompetence. Because he could no longer control the world in front of the powerful Eight Kings. Perhaps he was an avoidant personality, and was willing to stand up only in front of the people he really cared about.

The saddest chapter I wrote was the sweetest moment between Sima Ying and Yang Xianrong.

In fact, everyone knows that there will be no good ending for the two of them, but they still insist on being together, each with their own thoughts.

I can't get the love I want, but I can't forget the love I want.

The most difficult chapter for me to write was when Liu Yao got angry at Yang Xianrong.

He loves her so much, but he can also be blinded by power.

The history books say that he was not obsessed with power, and he was once a young man with fine clothes and a vigorous horse, enjoying the world. But in the end, he became an emperor, and his pride gradually turned into autocracy, which was also the foreshadowing of his final tragic ending.

Yes, this novel has a sadomasochistic ending.

But if you look closely, Yang Xianrong was actually very happy. She received the most sincere love from three men and was finally buried in a tomb that matched her status. Although those brilliant and indestructible stone tablets and tombs have long disappeared in the long river of history, her legend will still be recorded in the annals of history.

I also learned about her from a short historical article. However, the more information I read, the more I felt that she was really lucky and smart. She used her "gentleness" to save her family and was appreciated and loved by Liu Yao.

She is very complete.

Having written this far, I can finally say it’s over.

From the light-hearted fictional suspense "My Third Year in the Cold Palace" to "My Fifth Year in the Cold Palace" to the modern urban-themed "Jin Yuanyuan's Top Life", and then to the heavy historical love-themed "The Phoenix's Fate Is Hard to Defiant", I have also given myself many opportunities to try and explore various directions and possibilities in writing stories.

Every word I write and every sentence I make is an experience for my personal growth.

Writing online articles is indeed very interesting, but it is also very tiring.

I will also be happy or sad for the characters in the story, and sometimes they even become lively and disobedient, with their own thoughts and behaviors, which directly leads to the direction of the story being out of my control. But it is precisely because of this that the story becomes more real and interesting, and it will make all of us feel sympathetic.

Well, in the end, of course I still want to thank everyone for always supporting me.

I often post at 00:10, and then I can see the number of readers in the background increase rapidly. At that moment, I really feel that writing late at night is very worthwhile. Because there are really people who are following, reading seriously and on time.

Again, love you guys.

The same thing, I will continue to work hard.

I still have many more stories to tell you.

Now, let me brew a pot of fragrant jasmine tea and start thinking about a new story.

See you later!
