The Slender Waist

The day the city fell, Feng Yun was treated by her father as a spoil of war and presented to the enemy general. Everyone pitied her, soon to be a captive, plunging into a fiery pit. Yet she veiled the little donkey cart that took her out of the city tightly, daring not to let anyone see the secret delight in her heart… As a child, she behaved oddly and spoke startling words, once predicting a war in which the whole army was wiped out, nearly being burned to death by her clan as a demon. When she grew up, her beauty was out of the world, but she was rejected by her husband's family. In the period of chaos and disorder everywhewe, where could a female captive go? "I do not seek a devoted partner to grow old with; I merely wish to rule unrivaled in this life." In her previous life, Feng Yun was always the one being scorned by others; in this life, she decided to strike first, turning the tables on each and every one of them, those so-called unreachable flowers and beasts in gentleman's clothing, those degenerates… all to be scorned in return.

Chapter 288 Revealing True Form

Atop the lookout tower, Master Garu's robes fluttered as he chanted.

"Which demon dares to hide? Reveal your true form…"

No sooner had he spoken than a low plea came from beneath the blue cloth.

"Spare us, great master. My sister and I are spirits born of wild grass. We have cultivated for many years and have never brought misfortune to the mortal world. We are kind spirits…"

With hands clasped together, the master said loudly, "You have deceived the Jin Empress Dowager, causing her to speak nonsense and fall from the high platform. How can you claim not to have brought misfortune to the mortal world?"

"We are wronged!" The grass spirit cried out in a high-pitched voice.
