Chapter 335 The war begins

Phoenix Clan Territory, Phoenix Valley.

Feng Xiao was having a heart-to-heart talk with Ru'er in the Wutong Palace, discussing how he would depose Feng Su and make their child the heir after the phoenix egg in her belly hatched.

Ru'er leaned against him, stroking her heavy belly, and smiled with extreme beauty and charm, her voice sweet and gentle: "Xiao, you are so good. Our child will definitely be as strong, wise, and powerful as you in the future."

"Haha, you have such a sweet tongue, it's so pleasant to listen to."

Feng Xiao was in a very good mood. He hooked Ru'er's chin and laughed heartily, and couldn't help but kiss her on the cheek.

Just then, a Phoenix Clan warrior stumbled in, his face pale. "Clan leader, the Dragon Clan army is pressing in! Xuan Yuanhao has personally led his men to attack!"

"what?"

Feng Xiao's smile froze instantly. He stood up abruptly, and in his haste, he knocked over the table in front of him, spilling tea and fruit all over the floor. "What's wrong with Xuan Yuanhao?"

The phoenix warrior trembled and stammered, "The dragon clan said... they said that you, clan leader, angered your wife, Shui Fu, to death, so they are looking for you."

He couldn't bring himself to say the words "settling accounts," and was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground, trembling and afraid to raise his head.

"fart."

Feng Xiao naturally understood. His face turned ashen, veins bulging on his forehead, and he couldn't help but swear, "Shui Fu died of illness on her own. What does it have to do with this clan leader?"

He paused abruptly, as if realizing something, his expression changed slightly. Could it be...?
"Where is Feng Su? Tell him to come see me."

He roared, his face ashen.

Completely unaware that Ru'er, standing to the side, had turned pale with fright and was clutching her stomach, too scared to speak.

At this moment, Feng Xiao had no mind to care about Ru'er; his mind was full of how to deal with the Dragon Clan's attack.

The warrior cautiously raised his head and stammered, "Young...Young Lord...he came with the Dragon Clan."

"The traitor."

Feng Xiao trembled with rage, a sinister killing intent flashing in his eyes.

That bastard must have known his plans, knew that he intended to depose him and cultivate a new successor, so he simply struck first and revealed the truth of what happened back then to Xuan Yuanhao.

Although Feng Xiao's character is questionable, he is extremely intelligent and resourceful; otherwise, he could not have become the patriarch of the Phoenix Clan.

He quickly figured out the cause and effect, and his face turned terribly gloomy.

I should have strangled that bastard when he was born.

This will also prevent us from raising tigers that will become a problem.

Just then, the entire Qifeng Valley trembled violently, and a deafening dragon roar came from afar. The sky was instantly covered by rolling thunderclouds.

Feng Xiao's expression changed drastically, and he transformed into a fire phoenix and rushed out, shouting, "Summon all the elders!"

Ru'er clutched her stomach in panic and screamed, "Whoosh!"

"Stay here and don't move."

Feng Xiao disappeared outside the palace without looking back.

Dark clouds loomed overhead, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the dragon army, like a black torrent, obscured the entire sky above Qifeng Valley.

Xuanyuan Hao, transformed into a golden dragon, coiled in the clouds, his eyes wide with rage, his whiskers flaring wildly, and his dark golden scales gleaming coldly in the thunder and lightning.

Behind him were the elders of the Dragon Clan and countless Xuanjia Guards, their numbers blotting out the sky.

"Feng Xiao, you get out here and face your death."

Xuan Yuanhao's roar echoed throughout the entire Qifeng Valley, causing rocks to fall and the paulownia trees to dance wildly in the gale.

Xuanyuan Ming arrived at that moment and, without even looking for it, spotted a flamboyant fire phoenix following at the very back of the dragon procession.

Who else could it be but Feng Su?
Xuanyuan Ming swooped down, flicking his dragon tail, and pulled Feng Su down from the sky.

The two instantly transformed into human form.

"Hey, cousin, stop pulling and tugging! There are so many people watching!"

Feng Su was dragged to the ground by Xuan Yuanming, but she showed no panic. Instead, she deliberately made strange noises.

Xuan Yuanming knew his character well and was already used to it. His golden eyes swept over his plain white attire, which made him look less like his usual dashing self and more like a refined gentleman.

He scoffed, "I thought your uncle would ambush you on the way."

Feng Su glanced at him, a cold glint in her peach blossom eyes. "I know Father too well. He changed three routes before sneaking into the Dragon Clan."

Here, the Phoenix Clan elders and elite warriors hastily assembled, their faces filled with horror as they looked at the overwhelming Dragon Clan army that blotted out the sky.

Feng Xiao transformed into a fire phoenix and rushed over. Looking at the overwhelming and murderous dragon army opposite him, as well as the golden dragon that blotted out the sky above, his face was so gloomy that it could drip water.

His gaze swept across the dragon clan's ranks, finally landing on Feng Su, who was whispering something to Xuan Yuanming at the entrance of Qifeng Valley. A sinister glint flashed in his eyes.

This inverse.

Feng Su naturally noticed her father's gaze, but she didn't care at all.

She even curled her lips in a provocative smile, her peach blossom eyes no longer displaying their former flirtatious charm, but instead filled with icy coldness.

Seeing his son's provocative expression, Feng Xiao's face grew even uglier.

He suppressed his anger, then transformed into human form and landed on the ground, his fiery red feather robe fluttering in the wind.

Several elders also transformed into human form and followed behind him.

"Brother Xuanyuan, what brings you all this trouble?" Feng Xiao's gaze finally fell on Xuanyuan Hao's huge golden dragon head, and he even managed a smile.

His demeanor was composed, as if he were facing not a blood feuding army, but ordinary relatives visiting from afar.

"What is it?"

Xuan Yuanhao sneered twice, transformed into human form and landed on the ground. His golden beast robe fluttered wildly as he raised his hand and slammed the animal skin with the evidence drawn on it hard into Feng Xiao's face. "Look what you've done."

The animal hide unfurled in the wind, revealing a rough yet clear pattern to everyone.

The dying female dragon coughed up blood on her bed, her expression sorrowful.

Beside him was an old phoenix cuddling with a female cat, and a little female laughing extremely happily.

The Phoenix Clan elders were all astonished when they saw the contents.

Then his expression became complicated again.

Several of the older elders knew some of the truth from back then, but for the sake of the Phoenix Clan's stability and to avoid trouble, they wisely pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Feng Xiao's composure crumbled inch by inch. He grabbed the animal hide, his knuckles turning white as he clenched it. "This is a frame-up."

He looked up at Xuan Yuanhao, his face filled with fury at being falsely accused. "Brother Xuan Yuan, we've known each other for years. You should know my character. How could I possibly kill Fu'er? I love her too much to ask. Besides, what can a few rough scribbles possibly represent?"

Feng Su stood at the very back of the dragon clan's procession, listening to her father's words: "How could I possibly kill Fu'er? I love her, and it's not too late."

He was instantly disgusted and vomited; he never knew this old man was so shameless.

It's unbelievable that he could say something like "I love Amu".

"Scribbling?"

He suppressed the nausea in his stomach and slowly walked out of the line.

His voice was no longer the usual flamboyant one, but colder than ever before, piercing through the tense standoff.

He slowly walked to Xuan Yuanhao's side, twirling a shimmering, illusory leaf between his fingers, but his gaze was fixed on Feng Xiao. "Does Father still remember this? The Illusion Leaf?"

The record inside contains evidence, including footage of the old man using Phoenix True Fire to force Amu to let the mistress in.

Last time, that illusion leaf was given to the old man as part of a trade.

However, this old man probably doesn't know that he has several more copies on him.

It's something I'm preparing to use to slap the old man in the face when he refuses to admit it.

Feng Xiao's expression changed drastically upon seeing the Illusion Leaf in his hand, and she blurted out, "Didn't I destroy that Illusion Leaf last time? How come you have it?"

Before she could finish speaking, she realized something was wrong and quickly shut up, glaring at him with eyes blazing with fury, wishing she could tear this unfilial son to pieces.

Feng Su didn't care about the old man's eyes that seemed to want to tear him apart. Anyway, the father-son relationship between the two had long since disappeared, so there was nothing to be sad about.

He activated the power at his fingertips, and the illusory leaf shone brightly, projecting the scene inside with clarity.

In the magnificent bedchamber, Shui Fu leaned weakly against the couch, coughing so hard that she coughed up blood, her face pale and angry.

Feng Xiao stood impatiently to the side, with a beautiful feline female in his arms, coldly watching Shui Fu coughing up blood on the bed. "You should know that although females are precious in the beast world, it is impossible for top-tier and powerful beastmen like us to have only one partner for life. As long as you agree to let A Yao into the family, you will be treated with the same respect as me."

"Feng Xiao, you heartless bastard, I would rather die than agree to let this lowly woman into the family."

Water Lily coughed up blood incessantly, and angry curses came from within the Illusion Leaf.

Feng Xiao's face instantly turned ashen.

The images within the illusion leaf continued to shift.

"I, a dragon princess, married you and for your sake, I never took another beast husband. I stayed by your side obediently, yet you betrayed me first with your heartless cruelty."

The blood Shui Fu coughed up stained the snow-white animal hide. Her hand trembled as she pointed at the feline female in Feng Xiao's arms. "What did you say when you asked me to marry you? You said you wanted a love that lasted a lifetime, a love between one person and one person. I granted your wish, but what about you? Now you're doing this for such a lowly thing?"

"Snapped!"

Feng Xiao slapped Shui Fu across the face, the Phoenix True Fire flickering in his palm: "Watch your words. Do you think you can insult A Yao like that?"

He ignored Shui Fu, who was lying on the bed unable to get up after being slapped by him, and sneered, "I did say that back then, but I don't love you anymore. I've changed my mind. Can't I fall in love with A Yao?"

Ten-year-old Feng Su suddenly rushed in from outside the palace, spreading his arms to block his mother: "Father, no!"

The scene stopped abruptly.

Qifeng Valley was deathly silent.

Feng Xiao's face turned ashen. Knowing that his secret had been exposed and there was no turning back, he suddenly transformed into a fire phoenix and pounced on Feng Su: "You unfilial son!"

"roar--"

Xuanyuan Hao instantly transformed into a golden dragon to intercept, his dragon tail sweeping away Feng Xiao, sending him flying dozens of feet before he crashed into the Wutong Palace.

Ru'er's shrill screams echoed from inside the Wutong Palace.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Feng Su transformed into a fiery red phoenix and soared into the sky, heading straight for the Wutong Palace.

As the wings swept past, a gleaming dagger flew directly into the Wutong Palace.

"what!"

Ru'er's screams stopped abruptly, blood gushing from her neck, where a dagger was stuck.

"Ru'er".

Feng Xiao rushed over with a grim expression and found that Ru'er was already dead, but her eyes were not closed, clearly indicating that she died with her eyes open.
