The Rise of Phoenixes

Dynasties rise and dynasties fall, like the tide washing the sand. On one side, he suffers from intrigue and hides his great ambition; on the other, the mysterious girl hides her anger behind her gentle smile. Who toppled the country, establishing their dynasty? Who built the Yellow Springs and set it over Imperial Power, inciting strife and conquering the earth? Who exchanged gazes at the Nine Palaces to the sound of halberd and blood, watching the falling flowers of Acacia? Who drank the poisoned wine and smiled, trading it for a cinnabar dot to the chest? Tribulation and strife has destroyed past prosperity; he would not retreat, and she has not finished singing. .... Is she disturbing the earth world, or is the world disturbing her? This is a seemingly simple story about an era of recovering the old country and the fight for the throne, and the men and women on both sides. To conquer or resist; To push away or fight for chance. To provoke or to still; To love, or to refuse love.

The genuine tears that she had caught on her hand surprised her.

The tear on her finger quietly glistened and slowly evaporated as she kneeled numbly for a long moment; finally, she gathered her last strength and shifted the assassin's corpse to check on Ning Yi; before she confirmed Ning Yi's death, she refused to waste time crying.

If he was dead, she had no time to waste. Him, Chunyu, and the many hundreds of dead Chang Ying Guards were waiting — she had too many things she needed to do.

As she was reaching out to touch him, a hoarse voice lazily spoke: "How long are you going to wait until you come touch me?"

Feng Zhiwei's hand froze in midair, and when she came to she clenched her hand and not ungently pounded Ning Yi's chest.

Ning Yi called out with mildly amused pain before commenting: "What a venomous girl."

He asked again: "What were you doing all dazed and still?"
