49 Imperial Hunting 1
The day of the imperial hunting has come. The students of the Imperial Academy was there, accompanying them was the Emperor and his two children Prince Ying and Princess Ying who will also participate in the hunt.
A sound of heavy footsteps was heard. Two old man wearing dark blue dresses caught the Emperor's attention. One of them is Nalan Che's master, Nan Hu and the other one is the Elder Su of the Azure Light School, Nalan Che's school from the neighboring country.
Behind the Azure Light School is the famous Heavenly Cloud Valley in the Yue Ling country, also a neighboring country of Ying Yue.
"Elder Su, Elder Xi." The Emperor called the two Elders with a smile. He slightly bowed to them and the two elders did the same.
"Emperor, thank you for agreeing that we can participate in this hunt." Elder Su said politely.
But the Emperor had his suspicion. Why would the two big schools wanted to participate in the hunt? The Emperor doesn't know the reason.
The two elders indeed has their reasons on participating in this hunt. They heard that there are two people coming down from the upper lands to secretly choose their disciples or become their successor. This is the right time for their students to have the chance to go to the upper lands and be nurtured up there.
How could they even miss this chance?
"Okay students. You must do your utmost best! Don't disappoint me!" Elder Su said to the students with a big smile.
On the other hand, Elder Xi said, "Your lives comes first. Don't do anything reckless. If you think the beast are too strong then escape. I only want you all to came back alive. You should use your brain, don't be a waste."
"Yes, Elder Xu!"
"Good."
Nalan Che roam his eyes to search for Li Wei but he did not see her. Just like her brother, Nalan Han also search for Li Wei. Her heart filled with hatred. Nalan Han will end Li Wei's life in there! If she's lucky enough to kill that bitch then she'll continue living and force Liu Xu to looked at her. If not, she will gauge Liu Xu's eyes and make them a lucky charm!
I'm no pure, I admit. If I didn't like someone, I can be unreasonable or be vicious! Since I didn't defeat Li Wei I know I have no chance to win against her after that, but even an ant can defeat an elephant.
The Emperor silence the crowd. He spoke in an authoritative voice. "The Imperial Hunting will soon began. Any minute now, the curtains will open."
*Tugudug tugudug* (Sfx of a running horse XD)
Suddenly everyone heard the sound of the horse hoof coming their way. They saw three stallion ride by three young people. The black stallion one was ride by Li Wei, white one was ride by Feng An and Meimei and the last one was rode by Mu Yang and Qi Shuang.
Mu Yang decided to join Li Wei on going to imperial capital. Li Wei said today is the Imperial Hunt and Mu Yang heard before that the Heavenly Cloud Valley are participating it.
A smirk hang on to her pink lips. That woman is also there. Let see her reaction when she saw me.
"Hah!" The stallion stops in front of everyone. Li Wei looked down and her eyes landed on the Emperor. She lightly climbed off the horse and bowed to Emperor.
"Greetings to the Emperor." She said.
"Ah, Miss Li good that you are here. I never saw you earlier so I thought you're not participating." The Emperor looked at Li Wei and felt that she had grow so strong within these 3 months. Princess Ying had told him that after the birthday banquet Li Wei did not go to school after. She disappeared without a trace. The Academy was supposed to send a letter of expulsion to her but the the teachers did not know where Li Wei live.
"Replying to the Emperor. I wouldn't let this event pass."
"Good."
Mu Yang strode in the group of Heavenly Cloud Valley, Elder Xi saw her and was surprised to see her.
"Lady Mu, you're here. Did you finish your mission in lost in wilderness?" Elder Xi asked Mu Yang when she arrive.
"Mission? Oh, I failed. Master will be very disappointed." Mu Yang said but with a smile on her face. Elder Xi frown. She failed but she's still smiling?
"Junior sister! You're here! I was very worried about you." A girl in her light pink dress drew closer to Mu Yang. She hugged Mu Yang's arms and looked at her worriedly.
A flash of disgust passed through her eyes and Mu Yang notice it. Her smile widen saying, "Senior sister, thank you for your concern. The men you sent to me protected me in the very end. Elder sister, forgive me. They all died because of me." Mu Yang said aggrieved. Crocodiles tears filled her black eyes.
The woman in pink sneered in her heart and said, "It doesn't matter, junior sister. I sent them to protect you after all."
"I'm sorry senior sister." Mu Yang still had her aggrieved expression that cause a lot of young men in the Heavenly Cloud Valley melt their hearts. They know Mu Yang as a strong and cold person but now, she looked like a fragile glass that any moment will break.
This made Mu Yang's senior sister very dissatisfied. She sent her men not to protect her but to kill her! What happened out there? Who killed them? Never in her mind enters that the men she sent was killed by beasts.
