Chapter 294: Chapter 294: Master Above 8
"What did you say, you slut?!"
Concubine Fang clutched at her shoulder, cold sweat pouring down her face from the pain. "Master, I…"
Before she could finish his words, the noise around them suddenly become a cry of surprise.
"Look! Look! What is that? "
"It's heading here! It's coming this way! It's so huge!"
"It's the Ice Luan Spirit Bird! It's Master Xi Tian's Ice Luan Spirit Bird!" Finally, someone cried out in alarm. Then, everyone followed suit!
In the sky which was dyed red because of the fire, a huge snow-white colored mythical bird approached from the distance. It flapped its huge wings, the fiery fire rushed towards the people in the courtyard.
Xiao Yuan Cheng and the other concubines immediately fled in panic. In their haste, the fallen Concubine Fang was stepped on several times. No one came to help her. At the same time, a fierce fire that had rushed towards them, burning all the trees in the courtyard.
Concubine Fang crawled up from the ground. The fire burned so fiercely in an instant that she couldn't see where it was going, so she ran wildly. When she felt the fire growing stronger, she discovered that she was running in the direction of Flowing Cloud Pavilion!
Cries of surprise came from outside one after another. Concubine Fang was just about to turn around and flee when she suddenly felt a burst of cold wind. In the next moment, the huge Ice Luan Spirit Bird pounced into the blazing Flowing Cloud Pavilion.
Concubine Fang looked at the scene in front of her with a shocked expression. The fire had been slightly reduced by the Ice Luan Spirit Bird's arrival, allowing her to clearly see the young girl that had jumped down from the Ice Luan Spirit Bird's back.
A section of her black cloak slid down, revealing long fiery red hair as well as…
Concubine Fang cried out in alarm. The Ice Luan Spirit Bird suddenly turned its head and glanced at her with its huge eyes. Concubine Fang was so scared that her legs went limp. Just as she was about to turn and run away, the Ice Luan Spirit Bird reached out a claw and grabbed her!
Huang Bei Yue turned her head to look at her. Upon seeing that it was Aunt Fang, she felt a little more at ease.
"Th-the third lady…," Concubine Fang said stutteringly. When she was caught by the Ice Luan Spirit Bird, the extremely cold air sent chills down her spine despite the fact that they were the middle of the fire.
Huang Bei Yue had already broken off her connection with the Beast Without Boundaries so hair had returned to its pitch-black color. Her appearance did not change much. Her delicate facial features were practically the same.
It was just that the red-haired Huang Bei Yue looked even more imposing and fierce.
But the black-haired Huang Bei Yue was a little more gentle and elegant.
Although the two were different, it was only in terms of temperament. However, one could recognize her appearance with a glance. Thus, after such a long time, Huang Bei Yue continued to wear a black cloak when she appears as Master Xi Tian.
Right now, in the middle of the fire, it was hard for her to say anything to Concubine Fang. She was very respectful towards this person, unlike Concubine Qin and Concubine Xue. Concubine Qin and Concubine Xue both had conflicts with her, making her want to cut weeds and eliminate the roots!
After instructing the Ice Luan Spirit Bird not to hurt Concubine Fang in her heart, Huang Bei Yue quickly walked into the room.
The smoke rolled around, but there was no one in the room. Where was Dong Ling?
That's right! Before she had left, she instructed Dong Ling to keep an eye on Steward Zhou so that no one could find an opportunity to attack him.
That girl has a straightforward personality. She must have seen the fire and decided not to run for her life. Instead, she went to find Steward Zhou!
With that thought in mind, Huang Bei Yue quickly jumped out of the window into the side room. Seeing that the door was not closed, she confirmed her guess.
The fire in the side room was even bigger. It was obvious that the person who set the fire wanted to silence Steward Zhou by killing him!
Chapter 295: Chapter 295: Master Above 9
With one leg, she kicked the door that was about to be burned down. As soon as she rushed in, she immediately heard the crying and coughing sounds inside the room.
"Pei Yu, your father can't be saved anymore. Quickly leave! Cough…," Dong Ling said as she anxiously tried to persuade her.
Hearing Dong Ling's voice, Huang Bei Yue's spirit was roused. She took out an ice feather to sweep away the fire surrounding her before walking in.
"I'm not leaving, let go of me! Let me go! Dad, dad, wake up, cough…"
"Let's go Pei Yu," Dong Ling shouted. However, Pei Yu had already fainted.
Huang Bei Yue rushed inside and wept the ice feathers over. The violent and raging flames were immediately extinguished. A cold aura surrounded them because of the ice feather. When Dong Ling felt the coldness, she turned around and became overjoyed.
"Miss, you finally came. Steward Zhou, he…" Dong Ling held the unconscious Pei Yu and her tone showed her self blame.
Huang Bei Yue looked at Steward Zhou in the corner. He was pressed down by a burning wood pillar that had collapsed. He had already taken his last breath.
He was already beaten by wooden planks before this, making him unable to walk. So after the fire started, he couldn't run away, he could only wait for death.
Huang Bei Yue was depressed. Since Steward Zhou died, then there would be one less witness. Don't know how full of themselves Xiao Yuan Cheng and Concubine Qin will be!
However, there was nothing she could do at the moment. She walked over to Dong Ling and took Pei Yu's hand. She then said to Dong Ling, "Quickly, let's go!"
Two people, one on Pei Yu's left and one on Pei Yu's right, helped her out. With ice feather in her hand, the surrounding flames didn't dare to approach them. When they walked into the courtyard, Concubine Fang was still in the Ice Luan Spirit Bird's claw, trembling in fear with a stunned expression on her face.
Huang Bei Yue handed Pei Yu to Concubine Fang and coldly said, "Concubine Fang, you've seen my true face. Originally, I want to dispose of you. However, since I was young, you had shown me a lot of love, so I can't be an ungrateful person. As long as you keep my secret, I definitely won't hurt you."
Concubine Fang immediately nodded her head. "Third Miss, I… I won't say anything. With how powerful you are now, there's now hope for the residence of Princess Zhang"
Huang Bei Yue trust Concubine Fang a little. When Princess Zhang was still alive, Concubine Fang was one of the few people who was able to talk to Princess Zhang for a while. Although her personality was cold, she treated Princess Zhang with complete courtesy and respect.
On the other hand, she didn't pay much attention to Xiao Yuan Cheng. Princess Zhang had treated her much more affectionately than other concubines.
After Princess Zhang had passed away, Huang Bei Yue was often bullied in the residence, and it was also Concubine Fang who had repeatedly protected her.
Otherwise, if it was Concubine Xue or Concubine Qin who had seen her true face, she wouldn't have shown the slightest bit of mercy and end their life!
"Let's go out first." Huang Bei Yue nodded towards the Ice Luan Spirit Bird. The Ice Luan Spirit Bird opened its mouth wide, thick ice shards immediately came out and the flames in front of them completely disappeared. At the same time, the Ice Luan Spirit Bird flapped its huge wings and flew up into the fiery red sky, disappearing in the next moment.
The few of them supported each other as they slowly walked out of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion. The people standing outside of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion didn't even dare to make a sound when they saw the people coming out. Some of them that were carrying buckets of water, immediately went up to her to receive credit.
"Third Miss, are you alright? This fire was too strong. No matter how much we tried to extinguish it, we weren't able to. Third Miss, you must've been frightened!"
"Third Miss's luck is great, blessed with great fate. Floods of good fortune filled the heavens, so of course, she's safe and sound."
As the sounds of chatter filled the air, the gazes of the crowd grew increasingly respectful as they looked at her.
What a joke! The person who went to save them just now was the person who has the most influence and the strongest power, the great Master Xi Tian. Princess Bei Yue must have some relationship with Xi Tian, to have him rescue her.
