Chapter 728 Cang Yue's Decision
Cang Yue would never have thought that such a situation would happen. She hated Feng Hengkong to the core, but facing this situation that no one could believe even if he saw it with his own eyes, she could only be at a loss and looked at Yun Che beside her: "Husband... this is..."
"Let them get up first." Yun Che said: "Let's talk about everything in the palace."
Cang Yue nodded slightly, calmed her heart a little, then took a few steps forward and reached out to Feng Xue'er: "Sister Xue'er, please. Sister Xue'er is unparalleled in her status. Such a great gift makes me feel frightened."
Feng Xue'er still lowered his head and said softly: "Empress Cangfeng is so serious... Xue'er is now guilty, and he bent his knees to apologize. He should have just hoped that Empress Cangyue's resentment can be calmed down."
Cang Yue shook her head and reached out to help Feng Xue'er up. Looking at Feng Xue'er up close, she couldn't help but be amazed that there was such a perfect existence like a dream. If there was only one proud daughter in this world, then she would definitely be the girl in front of her.
"Although I have never been to the Cangfeng Kingdom, I have heard of the name of Snow Princess of the Divine Phoenix Kingdom many times. Now that I can see a real person, it is even more than rumored." Cang Yue exclaimed,
The ultimate anger and resentment towards a person can easily affect his relatives. Cang Yue, who hated Feng Hengkong, could not develop any resentment towards Feng Xue'er when facing Feng Xue'er. Or, no one in this world would develop a hatred for her.
"Feng Hengkong, you should get up too." Cang Yue turned around, and her voice suddenly became calm and cold: "This is not a place to speak, follow me to the Cangfeng Lord Hall!"
Looking at Yun Che's eyes, Cang Yue said to Dongfang Xiu: "Master Dongfang Palace, please stay outside and no one is allowed to come in. In addition, don't mention what you have seen just now."
"Yes." Dongfang Xiu leaned over slightly. He glanced at Feng Hengkong, trying to remind Cang Yue to pay attention to safety... But when Yun Che and Feng Hengkong knelt down just now, he swallowed the words he was about to say.
Watching Cang Yue, Yun Che, Feng Hengxing, Feng Xue entered the main hall of Cangfeng. Dongfang Xiu and others looked at each other, and some had not even reacted from the shock just now.
"What the hell is going on? That's really... the emperor of the Divine Phoenix?" Feng Yunlie said with his eyes wide. Even if he wanted to break his head, he couldn't figure out what was going on... That's the Emperor of the Divine Phoenix, the Lord of the Phoenix, who is proud of the world!!
Although he is the lord of the same country, as the general of Cangfeng, he has to admit that the weight of the four words "Lord of the Divine Phoenix" is thousands of times better than that of the "Lord of the Cangfeng"! Feng Hengkong came here in person, which is shocking, and he could not even dream of him kneeling down at the Queen Cangfeng... and the sound of his shouting was deep pain and regret.
"That person is indeed Feng Hengkong, the emperor of the Divine Phoenix Kingdom. I saw it three years ago." Xia Yuanba said with certainty.
"...Was that woman the rumored Divine Phoenix Snow Princess?"
"Well, she is Snow Princess. I didn't expect that she would come together... But three years ago, my brother-in-law had a good relationship with her." Xia Yuanba rubbed his head in confusion.
"Authentic, after all, Yun Che had an accident in the ancient Xuan Gong three years ago because of Princess Snow... Princess Snow, a god-given treasure from the Divine Phoenix Empire, the number one beauty in the Tianxuan Continent, is indeed well-deserved!" Dongfang Xiu exclaimed heavily.
"I am really worthy of Brother Yun. In just a few days, I was able to reverse the extremely bad situation to such an extent." The world's No. 1 voice was low and she said to herself in a voice that she could only hear: "I didn't expect that there was a woman in this world who looked comparable to a little demon queen..."
………………………………………
The Cangfeng Hall was quiet. Feng Hengkong stood in the center of the hall, looking up at everything here. He thought that one day he would step into the Cangfeng Palace himself, but he never thought that it would be in this form. Cangyue would not have thought that he had seen the person he hated the most in his life in this form.
Yun Che had just informed Cang Yue in detail about the matter on the Divine Phoenix. Although all this was caused by him, the king of Cangfeng Kingdom was Cang Yue, and he did all this for her. Therefore, how Feng Hengkong atones for his sins will ultimately be decided by her.
"Sister Xue'er, please take your seat." It was completely different from her attitude towards Feng Hengkong. Cang Yue whispered softly when treating Feng Xue'er. She already understood why this proud daughter, who was like a myth, came here condescendingly, and why she bowed to her... Even if she put aside these reasons, no one could feel disgusted towards her.
"Thank you, Sister Queen." Feng Xue'er sat down beside Yun Che without retreating.
"Feng Hengkong, are you really willing to atone for your sins?" Cang Yue turned sideways and faced Feng Hengkong, her face turned cold instantly.
If he was still unwilling to be resentful after getting off the Feng Shenzhou and setting foot on the land of Cangfeng, then with Feng Xue'er's kneeling, all these emotions completely dissipated with the tremor and severe pain in his heart. He could not for the blood debt he committed in Cangfeng, but he only wanted to make Feng Xue'er no longer bear the burden of his soul because of him, and he would do his best to atone for his sins...even if he lost his dignity and even his life as a Divine Phoenix Emperor.
"I am here today just to apologize and atone for my sins! I know that the disaster caused by Cangfeng is more than heaven and is difficult to write, and I will die forever... As long as I can calm down Cangfeng and the resentment of your Cangyue Queen, I will willingly accept it without any regrets."
"Yue'er, when I was in Phoenix City, I had already put forward the conditions, and they agreed." Yun Che said, and then described the five conditions he proposed when he was facing Feng Hengkong and Feng Tianwei one by one.
Yesterday, when Yun Che shouted out these last conditions, like every time before, Feng Hengkong's face was ashen, hissing, and almost burst into breath. Now, listening to Yun Che's words of the same thing - whether it is compensation, cede land, or even depriving his mysterious skills of kneeling in Cangfeng for hundreds of years, and the fifth offering that lasted for hundreds of years... His face was always calm and without any turmoil.
On the contrary, Cang Yue, when she heard the conditions that Yun Che said, showed deeper and deeper shock on her face... She hated the phoenix and the phoenix Empire, but the five conditions proposed by Yun Che were undoubtedly domineering and even extremely cruel. If the phoenix Kingdom was fully implemented, then its five thousand years of dignity would be trampled on by Cang Feng, who had only a thousand years of history and had always been the weakest country, and was forever put into the abyss of shame...
Such a condition of apology is so cruel. Not to mention the thousand-year history of Cangfeng, even the entire Tianxuan history, has never appeared.
"You Divine Phoenix...especially your Feng Hengkong, are you willing to agree to these conditions?" Cang Yue frowned and looked directly into the eyes of the Divine Phoenix Emperor fearlessly. She wanted to hear his answer in person.
"Yes." Feng Hengkong closed his eyes without any hesitation.
"Okay..." Cang Yue's tall chest fluctuated violently, and her eyes became sharp and deep.
"Sister Queen!" Feng Xue'er quickly stood up and asked Cang Yue: "Xue You knows that his father made a big mistake that is unforgivable, and all the compensation proposed by Brother Yun is worthy of it. But... only the father's Xuan Gong was abolished and stayed in Cangfeng for a hundred years, and asked Cangyue to be kind. His father's identity was special. He was not only the emperor of the Divine Phoenix Kingdom, but also the sect leader of the Phoenix God Sect. If he stayed in Cangfeng, the Divine Phoenix would be in chaos in the people, and the Phoenix God Sect would be in peace for a long time."
"Although everything is caused by the father's fault, Xue Ye, as the father's daughter, should share the blame for the father. She also asked the queen sister to sympathize with Xue Ye's selfishness and the overall situation of Shenhuang, and Xue Ye would stay in Cangfeng instead of her father. Other compensations will be carried out in the shortest time after the father returns. Please ask the queen sister..."
"Xue'er, it's not your business!" Feng Hengkong shouted: "Empress Cangyue, you should know that there is a fault and a debt! Your father's death and Cangfeng's current situation are all caused by me! Everything has nothing to do with my daughter! She has been unconscious for the past three years and has not participated at all!"
"I am just trying to atone for my sins now! I will not frown if you want me to do now! But Xue Er is a reverse scale that I will never touch!!"
Feng Hengkong was stern and determined. Feng Xueyou was anxious: "Father, you have already agreed to Xueyou to come before! Have you ignored Shenhuang and the sect?"
Feng Hengkong shook his head slowly: "Xue'er, for your father, your safety is more important than your father's life, your sect... and everything in this world. If you want me to choose, I would rather be willing to be destroyed by the sect than to suffer any harm."
Cang Yue: “…”
Yun Che: "..."
"No, no, I stay here. With Brother Yun protecting me, I will definitely not be hurt. I will worship the Queen's sister's father every day, pray for the Cangfeng, the Divine Phoenix, and the Atonement for the Son of the Father. After a hundred years of atonement, I will go back to Phoenix City... If the Father misses, you can also come to visit Xue Er at any time." Feng Xue Er smiled, and there was no worry or panic about the future between the lines: "The Divine Phoenix can be without Xue Er, but it must not be without the Father. This relationship has major events in the whole country, and the Father cannot be willful!"
"Xue'er, I..."
"Father," Feng Xue'er softly interrupted Feng Hengkong's words: "Xue'er has been growing up under the spoiling and protection of his father, and has been gifted by Lord Feng Shen, but has never done anything for his father or for the Phoenix God Sect. Now, he can finally share some things for his father. Xue'er is only happy and satisfied, and does not feel wronged or afraid at all... Moreover, there is Brother Yun, Xue'er's favorite. If he had seen Brother Yun frequently, Xue'er would definitely be happier than when he was in Phoenix City. Don't forget that three years ago, Brother Yun ignored his life in order to protect Xue'er, so by Brother Yun, Xue'er was extremely at ease, and his father didn't need to worry about anything... right?"
"Xue'er, you..." Feng Hengkong stretched out his hand, trying to touch Feng Xue'er's shoulder, his eyes once again became hazy in control.
"Sister Queen, Brother Yun is the best person in the world in Xue'er's heart. You are Brother Yun's wife and must be the most gentle and kind female emperor in the world. Please forgive your father's life and freedom, and Xue'er will leave it to your father instead. In the future, Xue'er and his father will repent and redeem the sins committed in the past three years with the greatest sincerity... Please ask the Queen Sister to fulfill it, Xue'er will always remember the kindness of the Queen Sister."
Every word of Feng Xue'er hit Feng Hengkong's heart hard, and also shocked Cang Yue's heart. Looking at her ice-like face and beautiful eyes that are thousands of times more beautiful than the stars, Cang Yue's heart was throbbing strongly... She knew Feng Xue'er's identity very well. She had the most noble bloodline in the entire Tianxuan Continent. She was the god of the Phoenix Divine Sect in the future. She would be better than Feng Hengkong in terms of identity and status.
Even better than all living beings in Tianxuan Continent!!
Under Feng Xue'er's eyes, Cang Yue didn't speak for a long time. After a while, she turned to look at Yun Che, seeking his help.
"Yue'er, of course, this matter is up to you. No matter what decision you make, I will support you." Yun Che said with a smile. He also believed that Cang Yue would definitely give the best result.
"..." Cang Yue slowly turned around and slowly walked towards the imperial chair. The hall suddenly became quiet, and she could only hear the sound of her phoenix dress tugging on the ground.
At the end of the hall, Cang Yue stopped, her phoenix eyes raised and looked ahead... There was a huge portrait, and above the portrait was her father Cang Wanhe, who had been gone for three years.
Time seemed to suddenly stop at this moment. Cang Yue silently looked at Cang Wanhe's always still figure, her eyes sometimes blurred and sometimes trembled... No one knew how complicated thoughts were turbulent in her heart, or how difficult choices were made.
After a long time, a full quarter of an hour passed, and Cang Yue's voice finally rang in the hall.
"Feng Hengkong..." She said softly: "If I were just an ordinary woman, the revenge of killing my father would be irreconcilable. I would not hesitate to tear you into pieces with my own hands..."
"Although I can kill you with the help of my husband's power, I can't." Cang Yue turned around and walked slowly and heavily: "Because I am the king of Cangfeng... If you die in Cangfeng, the divine phoenix will be in chaos, and my Cangfeng's disaster will continue, even intensify. Even if you leave strict orders in person before your death, it will be useless."
"It is a similar truth to destroy your mysterious skills and keep you in Cangfeng for a hundred years. If you plant hatred, you will surely explode in a long time, maybe a few decades, maybe a hundred decades, maybe a few hundred years, maybe a few hundred years. After all, my Cangfeng is a weak country. Once it breaks out, it will only be my Cangfeng."
"So... although I will never forgive you, I will not be able to kill you."
Feng Hengkong: "..."
"I will not kill you, I will not force you to destroy your own Xuangong, nor will I force you to kneel a hundred years ago in my father's tomb... because even if I kneel for tens of thousands of years, my father will not be resurrected. I will cede Chiqiong City, the enthronement of the two hundred years of Xuan Crystal Black Iron Phoenix Armor, and even Xuan Shi's apology, a cease-to-war contract... I can do all of these!"
"..." Feng Hengkong looked sideways suddenly, his face full of disbelief.
"Ah?" Feng Xue'er covered her lips with her hands: "Sister Queen, is it... true?"
"..." Yun Che also looked surprised.
"Although I am a woman, as the Emperor of Cangfeng, what I said is naturally the only word of the word!" Cang Yue said calmly: "I only keep one of the five conditions you have already agreed to before, and I will never force you."
"Compensation for 50 billion purple Xuan coins!" Cang Yue said solemnly: "I only keep this one! Now the Cangfeng Kingdom is full of holes and countless citizens are displaced. They need this wealth to rebuild their homes for them."
"Really...really?" Feng Hengkong could not leave his own mysterious skills without having to abandon his own secret skills. Feng Xue'er had already achieved his greatest desire, and there was infinite surprise, joy and gratitude in his heart.
Feng Hengkong opened his mouth, unable to believe his ears. He did not need to cede land, worship, and even wanted an apology edict... Their Divine Phoenix could completely protect their dignity...
"But, I have two additional conditions!" Cang Yue's eyes looked straight at Feng Hengkong.
"Please tell me that as long as you can do it, your father and Xue'er will do their best." Feng Xue'er said happily.
"First," Cangfeng's tone was calm and solemn: "I Cangfeng's countless cities, and my home was destroyed. Now all directions are in chaos. It is difficult to return to stability in a short period of time with the power of Cangfeng alone. Therefore, within the next five years, your Divine Phoenix will need to send more than 60% of the troops stationed in Cangfeng to help rebuild the city's home!"
The five major conditions are only for compensation, which is simply a gift that I can't believe in my dreams. Feng Hengkong thought that Cang Yue's two additional conditions would be extremely harsh and difficult, but unexpectedly, the first additional condition she proposed was so simple. He nodded slightly: "Okay, I promise... I will leave 70% of the Divine Phoenix Army in Cangfeng, and let the Queen Cangyue or the lords of all parties dispatch it, and will issue strict orders to never violate the Cangfeng people."
"Okay." Cang Yue nodded, expressed her confidence, and then looked away from Feng Hengkong's face and turned to Feng Xue'er: "The second condition is simpler. Snow Princess Feng Xue'er, I want you..."
