Chapter 126 Shocking Change! Shocking Change!! Shocking Change!!

The story goes back to shortly after Ershu regained her memories, before Kahn left. Ershu and Azura were whispering secrets that only girls would have.

"Speaking of which, there's something else I'm very concerned about."

Ershu slightly curled the corners of her lips and whispered to Azura:

"Azura, my dear daughter, are you and Kahn dating?"

"Of course not!"

Azura was startled. Her previously indifferent expression instantly crumbled, as if her secret thoughts had been exposed. She finally revealed the shyness and panic that a girl of her age should have.

Seeing this, Ershu's smile widened, and she laughed:

"I just think you two are a good match. What, don't you like him?"

"It's not that I dislike him, well, I mean, whether you look at his abilities or other aspects, um, he's actually quite good, so..."

"Hehe, I understand, I understand."

Seeing Azura like this, Ershu couldn't help but recall the simple and happy times she and Noren spent in the small town, which was her most precious youth.

"So, have you confessed your feelings to him? Or are you waiting for him to make the first move?"

Upon hearing this question, Azura seemed to have been hit where it hurt, and immediately fell silent.

"Actually, I'm not entirely sure what he's thinking."

"You can be very confident about this, my daughter."

Ershu gently embraced Azura, looked at Kahn ahead, and encouraged her:

"You two have supported each other through so many hardships and obstacles. Is there anyone in the world who can compare to the trust and affection between you two?"

"I believe he likes you too, but perhaps he hasn't realized his feelings yet, so you need to take the first step."

"Besides, is pursuing him really more difficult than what you're currently doing?"

Ershu's words made Azura's eyes brighten even more, and her original unease slowly dissipated, returning her to her confident and arrogant state.

"That's right! I think I know what to do."

"Also, Mother, I would like to ask you for something."

Time slips away quietly, and we gradually move closer to the planned action date.

Now everything is ready except for the final push. For Kahn, there's nothing he needs to do these next few days; he just needs to wait quietly. But sometimes, waiting isn't so easy.

For some reason, he felt a strange unease, as if something was about to happen.

And it was something he hadn't expected.

Finally, on the last night before the operation, Mei, who was supposed to be in the city assisting Azura, unexpectedly rushed to them in a panic.

Kahn's journey began in a dream, and the news brought by May completely ignited his unease—

"Azura acted ahead of schedule without permission!"

-

The palace seemed to have been in a brief uproar, but by the time Kahn arrived, the commotion had subsided. However, the bright lights, the heavily patrolled guards, and the bloodstains scattered throughout indicated that things were not as simple as they appeared.

only.

Kahn cautiously avoided the patrols as he approached the main hall.

The doors of the main hall were open, and some officials were already standing inside. Some of them were still in their pajamas and looked rather disheveled. Among them was an old acquaintance of Kahn, Wolf, the captain of the guards under the throne.

Most importantly, the person on the throne had been replaced at some point, and Ao Zai's figure had disappeared.

Instead, Azura sat on his throne, surveying all directions with disdain.

Upon seeing Kahn's arrival, Azura waved for Woolf and the others to leave. Once only the two of them remained in the hall, Azura immediately shed her imposing demeanor, lazily reclining on her throne and laughing:

"You arrived pretty quickly."

From the initial shock and confusion upon receiving the news, to the anxiety and worry while on the road, and now, Kahn is filled with mixed emotions and doesn't know what to say.

After a moment of silence, he finally spoke and asked:

"What exactly happened? Where is Aozai?"

"As you can see, Ao Zai is now history."

Azura jumped down from the throne and swayed over to Kahn, looking extremely pleased with herself.

"If you're asking about his body, then I'm not so sure. I just ordered someone to drag him away."

"You killed him?"

"uh-huh."

She winked playfully at Kahn and spread her hands, saying:

"As it turns out, we overestimated him. Ao Zai is not as difficult to deal with as we thought."

"Can you believe it? He only used one Lightning Control Technique, and I only used one Reverse Lightning Fire Technique, and then the battle was over, hahaha, hahahaha."

"He's really too weak, weaker than anyone expected."

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

"I"

Kahn didn't know how to react. Hearing that Aozai had been dealt with, his feelings were extremely complicated.

Is it really that simple, and that's the end?

Since his transmigration, he had been oppressed by Ao Zai, carefully and scheming to deal with him. In order to deal with Ao Zai, he assembled such a luxurious team of grandmasters outside the city. In the end, Ao Zai was dealt with so hastily and even ridiculously.

Because Aozai's death was so comical, even his series of actions seemed somewhat ridiculous.

However, he still managed to compose himself and then coldly asked:

"But why did you act ahead of time and keep it from us? What are you thinking?"

His tone was strongly skeptical, but that was only because Azura had succeeded; otherwise, his tone would never have been so calm.

Azura's actions are tantamount to gambling with everyone's lives; if she fails, everyone will be implicated.

Even now that Azura has succeeded, he still can't understand why she would take such a risky gamble, and even keep him hidden from the world.

Upon hearing this, Azura replied meaningfully:

"Of course I don't want to hide it from you or 'us'; I just want to keep it from 'them'."

""them"?"

"Do you really think those people from the White Lotus Cult are just here to help? Bumi, Cooper, Zhengzheng, don't they have their own interests to pursue? Don't they have their own ulterior motives?"

Azura sneered:

"If we involve them and make it 'us' that we defeat Aozai together, what happens next? Will they make some 'reasonable' demands? And can we refuse those demands?"

"Even further, if a group as large as them were to enter the city, would we still have a say in the matter?"

Kahn remained silent; he couldn't deny Azura's speculations.

But how should he deal with this?

It was he who initiated the operation, he who united with the White Lotus Sect, and he who personally brought the masters over. How should he face them?

Kahn suddenly felt tired, a kind of mental fatigue for no apparent reason.

"If that's the case, then why did you agree to join forces with the White Lotus Sect in the first place?"

"Why not take advantage of an extra layer of protection? Besides, if my operation fails, their presence can create more opportunities for our evacuation."

Azura, oblivious to the subtle change in Kahn's expression, continued speaking eloquently:

"Furthermore, I was also eager to witness the true strength of the White Lotus Sect, and the results certainly surprised even me. Without a doubt, they are a far more formidable opponent than Ao Zai or the Tu Qiang Kingdom!"

"The most crucial issue right now is the succession to the throne. Although I have already seized the initiative and taken control of the palace, and made arrangements, it would indeed be troublesome if that guy Ailo supported Zukou with the resources of the White Lotus Cult."

"However, I believe that we will ultimately be the victors."

"Kahn, you'll help me, won't you?"

Azura's smile remained as confident as ever, and her gaze was as direct and forceful as ever, conveying an unquestionable meaning.

In the past, he would only lament his bad luck and then stand silently by her side.

Countless times, they have come through this.

But this time, he wanted to leave.

"I"

Kahn was still unsure how to begin, but Azura seemed to remember something. Her face suddenly flushed, and after taking two deep breaths with her back turned, she finally mustered her courage, turned around, looked directly at Kahn, and solemnly said:

"In addition, there is one more thing that is most important to me."

"Kahn, would you be willing to govern the Fire Nation with me?"

Kahn frowned and asked:

"What do you mean?"

"It means..."

Suddenly, Azura's face loomed larger in his vision, and then, Kahn's eyes widened in shock—

"What are you going to do—!!!!?"

I quit my job, guys. This job was so boring. I'd rather write a novel.
