Zhou Huailing was not pleased at the moment either.
He had always believed that the phoenix was here for Gu Ruxue, yet the phoenix ended up flying next to Gu Chaoyan whilst Gu Ruxue simply had no way to get the phoenix to her side.
He was just thinking about what to do when his father arrived.
Wearing a long face, Zhou Huailing said with displeasure. "Father, I will go and check it out."
The King was quite nervous as well. He had no idea what was going on. So he nodded and said, "Go and check it out!"
Zhou Huailing hurried off.
The King was wearing a very helpless expression. He had not expected that such a terrible mistake would appear at this critical moment.
When Zhou Huailing came to the ladies, the air among the ladies was quite awkward. Most of the ladies had been sucking up Gu Ruxue, yet the phoenix turned out to be Gu Chaoyan’s. However, they could not possibly turn to Gu Chaoyan at this moment. So they were all stuck in the dilemma.
Gu Ruxue let out a sigh of relief at the sight of Zhou Huailing.
"What is wrong?" Zhou Huailing asked with a small voice.
"I don’t know, the phoenix should be mine, what is it doing with Gu Chaoyan?" Gu Ruxue was very unconvinced, thinking that something must have gone wrong.
At this moment, her maid came with a
Gu Ruxue took it… At this moment, she was not at all scared of pain. She stabbed right in her hands and said, "My mother says that my blood is different from the commoners. Maybe the blood can help the phoenix to understand who its real master should be!"
Zhou Huailing nodded. That was what the Destiny Monk said as well. So it should not be wrong.
He had been furious, yet when he heard what Gu Ruxue said, he became assured. He was waiting to see the phoenix come to her side.
Gu Ruxue’s blood was dripping constantly, yet the phoenix did not make a move. Zhou Huailing was so anxious that he gave Gu Ruxue another cut, drawing out even more blood, yet the phoenix remained still whilst hopping happily around Gu Chaoyan instead.
Zhou Huailing’s face sank.
At this moment, Gu Chaoyan was inviting the Elder Miss of the Chu Family to touch the phoenix’s feather.
The Elder Miss caressed the feather lightly, finding it quite magical.
The Second Lady of the Chu Family went up and said, "Lady Chaoyan, can I touch it?"
Before Gu Chaoyan gave her a response, she stretched out her hand. She believed that she could touch it since her sister had touched it. She should not be behind her.
However, the phoenix did not care, and flew away directly.
The Second Lady of the Chu Family was very unconvinced.
At this moment, Zhou Huaijin came with a white pony whilst showing a gentle smile. "Alright, you are not really taking the phoenix as your mount, are you? It may be willing to do that, but it is unfair for the others. Come, just ride Phantom later," Zhou Huaijin said as he pointed at the white pony.
Gu Chaoyan shrugged and said helplessly, "Alright then, I had no intention of letting it out, but Princess Consort insisted that I should compare mine to hers."
As she spoke, Gu Chaoyan pointed at the weighty and ugly magical monster close by.
Gu Ruxue’s face had turned totally red with anger.
Gu Chaoyan asked the phoenix to fly away.
Gu Ruxue had absolutely no idea what to do.
De Fu asked Zhou Huailing to join the King, and Zhou Huailing did with a terrible look on his face.
The King was a bit serious-looking now. He was extremely angry, so he asked Zhou Huailing directly, "What is going on, why does the phoenix belong to Chaoyan?"
