Hubby, Your Fox Fairy Wants Everything

Chapter 55 Escape the Fairy Kingdom

Wuyou followed him to the Imperial Study. Through the breach, Wuyou could tell that the man was Su Chenyang, though his back was against the door.

“Your Majesty, several days ago, Chidi passed tribulation and ascended to be the Devil God. I failed to stop him.”

“Is there any movement of Shenzong in Kunlun?”

“All the disciples in Kunlun fought against Chidi. But unexpectedly a titanic monster appeared on the way.”

“The monster is Chidi’s Spirit Beast?”

“Not only was this monster’s Spirit Power unfathomable, but also it helped Chidi return to his position. Even the Sect Master, Xu Linghe, felt helpless.”

“Xu Linghe is still alive? Was he killed by Di Qing...” Xiao Qi never expected that his cousin could be resuscitated, sorrow mixed with happiness in his voice. “If Xiaoyao’s husband is still alive, I am afraid I can’t even get the last tenderness, and loving her quietly also becomes a luxury. It won’t take long that Xiaoyao will be taken by the cousin, and I will not see her any longer.” With the thought, Xiao Qi felt bitter in his heart, his fingers clenching pale. He had to exhaust his life’s courage to make the decision.

“The matter that Xu Linghe is still alive is just between you and me. If Jiang Wuyou knows it... ” Xiao Qi said in a chilly tone. Su Chenyang’s eyes dulled. It turned out that Phoenix was right, and Xiao Qi’s darkness was absolutely terrifying.

Wuyou outside the door had been drenched in tears. “My Linghe is still alive. It turns out that the Heaven does treat me well and make my dream come true. I will find Xu Linghe...”

“Who?”

Two people in the room flew out of the door. Wuyou, holding her child, bolted out all the way. She did not stop until she ran to the corner, because she could not have Xiao Qi to discover herself. What Xiao Qi had said sent a shiver into Wuyou’s heart. Wuyou calmed down gradually and could not let Xiao Qi discover her. Perhaps the child in her arms had his mother’s temperature and slept well. Wuyou held the baby toward the Yun Shu Yuan.

But Wuyou could not sleep all the night.Now, she had lost her Spirit Power and was just a feeble woman, even unable to truss up a chicken. Although her face had recovered from hurt, venom’s erosion made her look ugly. Afraid she would scare her baby, she was always wearing a mask. A palace servant once said there was a highly skilled sorcery doctor in the Fairy Kingdom. But Xiao Qi never mentioned it. Now it was clear that Xiao Qi did not want Wuyou to have Spirit Power at all. “If I want to leave here, I must have the Spirit Power to protect my child. Since Su Chenyang has seen Xu Linghe, why does he bring Xu Linghe to see me? From what I know about Linghe, Linghe will not leave me alone, unless something unexpected happens.” With a thousand thoughts crammed with her mind, Wuyou could not figure it out. Looking at the sky getting light, Wuyou gave out a mirthless smile. “I did not sleep all over the night.”

When seeing Xiao Qi in the morning, Wuyou spoke of the scars on her face deliberately. At first he was taken aback – then he continued to delight her baby. At the sight, Wuyou knew completely that as Wuyou had guessed, Xiao Qi did not want Wuyou to restore her Spirit Power. But how could Wuyou do it at Xiao Qi wished? Wuyou thought, “I have to find a way out. But in the entire Fairy City, except my previous brothers, who can help me?”

“Xiao Qi, I have seen Commander in Chief Su for some time. He is really good at brewing the peach blossoms wine. When will I have a drink of it?”

“You are a mother now. Why do you want to become a drunkard? Aren’t you afraid that it will do harm to your child?”

“I like the thing in the cup. I think I can’t change it.”

“You always love me, right?” Wuyou asked, wondering how Xiao Qi answered it. The reason why Wuyou raised the question was to embarrass Xiao Qi. For Wuyou, Xiao Qi’s love meant nothing to her. If it happened in the past, Wuyou would feel guilty, but now he was not even a friend to Wuyou.

Xiao Qi did not expect that Xiaoyao would change into a pointed topic. She stared at him with her cold eyes. Xiao Qi was lost for words at that moment. If there had not been Xu Linghe, Xiao Qi himself would say, “...I love you” to Xiaoyao... But Xiao Qi dare not and could not say it out.

“The palace is really boring. Ask your brothers to gather in the palace tomorrow!”

After a period of silence, Xiao Qi gave the answer that Wuyou wanted. Although it was a little, embarrassing, Wuyou could sweep away last night’s depression and began planning in her heart secretly.

In the mirror, the woman’s cold eyes softened. Her little hands touched her cheeks, and there was no jade skin under the hands. But Wuyou did not feel inferior any longer. Since she had a baby, her heart was brimmed with happiness, bathing herself in the satisfaction that her child brought her. Now, she was making preparations for the escape. Maybe Xiao Qi was alerted to it, since there were more guards in the Yun Shu Wan. But anyway, the people Wuyou was waiting for came finally.

The courtyard was well-illuminated with a stove fire burning in it. Su Chenyang brought the peach blossoms wine. Shen Chuya bought a tigher-head doll for her baby. Leng Mohan took a sword that he forged by himself for the baby. The small and delicate silver sword was placed in a jade sheath. Among them, Xiao Nai was the most generous—he brought a spirit pet for her child. Seeing the spirit pet, Wuyou could not help but thinking about her Little Lingchong. But because she lost her Spirit Power, she was unable to call Little Lingchong. “I can’t do anything just like a trash.”

“This preach blossom wine has been prepared when we attacked the fire tribe. Today, let’s drink until we are thoroughly drunk.”

“Chenyang loves wine as life. I guess there is one more infatuated woman in the world.”

Xiao Nai was teasing him.

“Phoenix likes you very much. Why don’t you give her a chance?”

Wuyou held the tass full of wine and drank it all to show her respect to her brothers, who were all selected from the soul battle arena and could finally gather together.Xiao Nai, unwilling to be quiet, stood up and display the phoenix dance. Fire was burning in the fireplace, and wine was boiling in the wine pot. Leng Mohan in unlined clothes performed swordplay. Looking at the brothers drinking to their hearts’ content, Wuyou thought about her husband. “If only Xu Linghe were here! To live an ordinary live with my child...”

“When will His Majesty dominate the three realms?”

Xiao Nai staggered and breathed alcohol fumes. His drunken speech silenced the lively atmosphere a lot. The first thing that came to Su Chenyang’s mind was the fire tribe. “Will Xiao Qi have such ambition?” Su Chenyang could not find it then, but was convinced a bit of Phoenix’s words. In order not to let Commander in Chief know that Xu Linghe was still alive, Xiao Qi warned Su Chenyang not to speak it out. From that moment, Su Chenyang was really indecisive. “If I tell Jiang Wuyou that Xu Linghe is still alive, Xiao Qi will not spare me.” To kill the enemy without any sound, it required strategy and cruel heart, and Xiao Qi had both. Su Chenyang knew Xiao Qi loved Jiang Wuyou, but the love brought disaster to Commander in Chief. Su Chenyang looked at Jiang Wuyou beside the stove light. Perhaps because of rich and mellow wine, Wuyou kept drinking the thing in the cup. Xiao Nai could not bear seeing it and came up to stop her. Wuyou opened her intoxicated eyes and burst out laughing. The tass was taken away by Xiao Nai, but Wuyou could not care about so much. She ditched her sleeves, held the wine jar and drank wildly.

“Commander in Chief, drinking in this way is bad for your health. Let’s drink it slower.”

“What? Chenyang, are you afraid that I will drink your peach blossoms wine out?”

“Commander in Chief, you are really drunk. I am afraid that you will be uncomfortable.”

“I, Jiang Wuyou, have been a drunkard since three years old. You are looking down upon me, a woman.”

“Commander in Chief, I am worried about you. In the past, I would stop you. But now you have Xiao Douya to take care of...”

“Xiao Douya? When did I have Xiao Douya?”

Xiao Nai and Leng Mohan kept shaking their heads. It seemed that Commander in Chief was really drunk. Shen Chuya stared at the woman silently in front, thinking, “Commander in Chief is really a legendary woman. If it happens to other women, what will they do? A woman who has lost her Spirit Power and her appearance is still able to be so confident. She is still the real girl, who blew my mind.” Bathed in the firelight, her face reflected the light. Although it was not a beautiful and elegant face, Shen Chuya’s heart still beat for it.

“It’s rather late. Let Commander in Chief have a rest.”

Xiao Nai smoothed his wrinkled hem of his garment. “I really enjoy myself drinking today. It has been a long time since I drank carefreely.” Thinking about the monthly pain that he had to suffer from poisonous insects before, Xiao Nai was more grateful to Xiao Qi. If it had not been Xiao Qi who detoxified for him, Xiao Nai was afraid that he would have had to endure the stabbing pain every month. So Xiao Nai hoped that he would repay Xiao Qi’s kindness for the rest of his life.

“Commander in Chief!”

Su Chenyang raised Jiang Wuyou, only to find that Commander in Chief had drunk herself into oblivion. So Su Chenyang had to carry Commander in Chief on his back. Suddenly, Wuyou’s little hands covered on Su Chenyang’s hands, which startled him. Su Chenyang realized that Commander in Chief pretended to be drunk in order to cast a mist before others’ eyes.

“Chenyang, I know you went to the human world and know that Xu Linghe is not dead. But Xiao Qi does not want me to leave the Fairy City. How can he stay me here? I must find Xu Linghe, but I have to avoid Xiao Qi’s watch. So I need to restore my Spirit Power. Do you know the sorcery doctor in the Fairy Kingdom?”

“I know some. But His Majesty is keeping a fairly close watch. I am afraid it is difficult to leave.”

“At the time of rat tonight, you use the sorcery to take my son to leave first.”

“If his Majesty finds it, I am afraid that it will be harder for Commander in Chief to...”

“Xiao Qi, I don’t think it’s easy to constrain me.”

“If Commander in Chief does want to leave, I will arrange it. At the time of rat, I will wait for you in the Yun Shu Wan. We only have one chance. If His Majesty is alerted tonight, it will be more difficult to leave in the future.”

“Wuyou is unable to repay your kindness. I am always ready to go through fire and water for the sake of your needs in the future.”

“Brother Xu and I are on the same wavelength. What’s more, Brother Xu once saved my life.

There is another thing to tell. Brother Xu has forgotten you...”

“What? How can my husband forget me...”

“I tried to sound him out. He can’t remember everything about you two...”

For Wuyou at that moment, disasters did come in succession. She did not expect that her lover would not remember her. “How about my child...” A myriad of thoughts crowd into Wuyou’s mind.

“You have to help me...”

“I will come at the time of rat. Now I am going to make it well-arranged. After all, there is only one chance.”

Wuyou sat quietly, waiting for the coming of the time of rat, while in the Imperial Study, Xiao Qi was buried himself in his world. Xiao Nai had reported to him that Xiaoyao was to leave tonight. Knowing it, Xiao Qi felt his heart was broken with a hole. “Since when have I not lived without Xiaoyao? Will I let her go?” Xiao Qi’s face darkened with a scowl. In his brush, the portrait on Xiaoyao, rendered with ink, looked in a mess. “What’s wrong with me? How can’t I draw Xiaoyao’s appearance?” Xiao Qi swung his sleeves and swept the brush and ink down to the ground.

“Xiao Nai, keep a close watch on Yun Shu Wan. I really want to see how Su Chenyang will take Xiaoyao away.”

Xiao Nai stepped out and felt guilty about Commander in Chief. But Xiao Qi was his great benefactor. “If it had not been for His Majesty, I would have died early of being poisoned.” (However, Xiao Nai had forgotten that Commander in Chief had given her life to save him).

The child in her arms slept sweetly. Wuyou had changed into a black garment. She used a luxurious quilt to wrap her child well, and then walked out of the room. There was a deadly silence at night. Her hair around the ears was fanned away by the wind. Drops of snow fell into her neck. Afraid the night wind would hurt her child, Wuyou held her child tightly in her arms. Perhaps Xiao Dou Ya felt his mother’s heartbeat, and his little lips moved a bit and fell into a sound sleep again. Several screams of the eagles rang occasionally in the courtyard, which sounded bleak and creepy. Xiao Nai was looking at Commander in Chief. It seemed that Commander in Chief was waiting for Su Chenyang. Wuyou thought, “Su Chenyang has promised to come at the time of rat. Why hasn’t he showed up yet?” Wuyou was waiting with great anxiety.
