The map to this Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm had a good name – Dancing Phoenix Map. Dancing Phoenix Map was separated into ten parts, and this realm could only be opened when all ten parts were joined together to form a whole.
Even though it was the first time Su Jingchen and Feng Hanyan heard of the Dancing Phoenix Map, they knew about the matter of ten pieces of a map.
Since millions of years ago, there had always been a legend circulating in The Land of the Dancing Phoenix. Legend said that there was an innate mystic realm somewhere in The Land of the Dancing Phoenix, and that there were countless precious gemstones and treasures inside. As long as one could enter the Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm, they would definitely be someone strong when they came out. Some people had even said that the person who could come out of Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm would be able to rule The Land of the Dancing Phoenix.
In order to find Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm and enter it, one had to gather the keys to the realm. According to the legend, Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm had a total of ten keys and were scattered amongst people of different authorities in the two empires.
However, no one knew how the ten keys to Dancing Phoenix looked like and who had them.
This was a legend that had been spread throughout The Land of the Dancing Phoenix for a very long time. As it had been too long and there had never been an appearance of something related to the special key to Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm, the incident related to Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm had been gradually forgotten.
The cave that Su Jingchen and Feng Hanyan were in was one of the places that had one-tenth of Dancing Phoenix Map, but the two of them had no way of finding that piece.
This was because after they read the words on the entrance and before they could find a way to get in, the two of them were thrown out of the cave. The entrance to the cave was patched back, as if all that they had seen was just an illusion.
Su Jingchen and Feng Hanyan had stayed around the cave for a few more days, but they did not see the entrance anymore. The two of them could only find a way back to the palace. After they reached the palace, Su Jingchen could not forget about Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm and had no mood to deal with political affairs, so he had passed on the position of the Crown Prince to Su Yuntian at an early stage to let him assist and handle the work.
After Su Jingchen abdicated, he started training death guards in secret, hoping that he could open the entrance to the mystic realm he found. Just in case, he did not send anyone to inspect the cave as he was afraid that other people would find some traces of his doings.
However, the news about Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm was still leaked somehow, and many authorities went up to inspect the cave. Pitifully, those were all to no avail.
As a result of this, Su Jingchen had attracted a lethal trouble for himself, as he was secretly given a deadly poison that no one had the antidote for. Even after being poisoned, Su Jingchen was still thinking about the Dancing Phoenix Mystic Realm.
Coincidentally at this time, Su Zhe’s reputation had increased significantly. Originally, Su Zhe was a prodigy with much potential and Su Jingchen’s entire mind was just filled with the mystic realm. He had even thought that after his death, his son – Su Yuntian – could think of ways, and even if it had to cost a few generations of hard work, they must obtain the map to the mystic realm.
However, when comparing Su Yuntian and Su Yunqi, he was biased towards Su Yuntian and hoped that the future of the Kingdom of the Heavenly Phoenix royal family could be helmed by Su Yuntian’s descendants.
However, Su Yuntian’s talent could not be compared to Su Yunqi’s and his strategies were also weaker, and even his sons could not hold a candle to Su Zhe, who was once well known by many.
As Su Yunqi only had one son, an idea grew in Su Jingchen’s heart. As the royal grandfather – Su Jingchen – had actually harshly commanded the death guards he had trained up over the years to find a chance to get rid of Su Zhe, just for Su Yuntian and his descendants to seize the throne.
However, as Su Zhe was too capable, they could not find a chance to act. Unexpectedly, he found out that Su Zhe’s wife was poisoned with a deadly poison, and he was looking everywhere for a miraculous antidote.
As a result, Su Jingchen commanded his servants to find Su Zhe and tell him about the Dancing Phoenix Map, behind Su Yunqi’s back. As Su Zhe was desperate to save his wife, he brought her to the cave.
Just when Su Zhe was on his way to the cave, Su Jingchen sent out his death guards to secretly follow Su Zhe. However, in the end, none of the death guards came back alive and Su Zhe’s whereabouts became unknown as well.
Even at the moment before Su Jingchen died, he did not know what had happened to Su Zhe.
When Su Ruoxi first heard what Feng Hanyan said, her blood boiled. If it was not because Su Zhe’s whereabouts were just unknown and if Feng Hanyan had said that Su Zhe was murdered, she might have directly destroyed the Heavenly Phoenix royal family.
Everyone said that feelings in the royal family were non-existent, but she did not expect Su Jingchen to even go down hard on his own biological grandson. The other reason why Su Ruoxi decided to not strike temporarily was because she heard that Su Zhe’s wife was under a deadly poison.
This made Su Ruoxi think of Baby’s internal poison. Perhaps this was related to the original owner’s biological mother?
No matter what and no matter why, Su Zhe and his wife were people she had to find. Since she had a clue now, she could only put other things aside first.
The map that Feng Hanyan gave her was exactly the one that Su Jingchen and she had found at the cave that day. It was drawn when they came out of it.
Su Ruoxi knew that things would not be as accurate as what Feng Hanyan had said, but the matters relating to Su Zhe should be true. This was because when Feng Hanyan was talking, she kept staring at her eyes.
A person’s eyes would not lie and she could confirm that Feng Hanyan would not dare to lie to her, even if it was for the Heavenly Phoenix royal family. If she had really lied to her, she would not be able to bear with the consequences.
A quiet night.
The next day after Su Ruoxi woke up, she brought Baby out. She was prepared to set off on her journey to find the place with the mystic realm map the next day, so she brought Baby out today to walk around Heavenly Phoenix City. Today was also the day “she” was being executed and it would be pitiful if she did not witness it.
After coming out of the Pavilion of the Assassins with the disguised Baby and Mo Lian, they followed the path and slowly walked around. When they saw something delicious, the trio would directly buy them to eat.
When Baby saw something that she liked, Su Ruoxi would directly buy it and put it in the realm.
Seeing Baby’s curious and happy face, Su Ruoxi felt a sense of satisfaction that she had never experienced before.
At this time, someone appeared from the side and had almost knocked into Su Ruoxi. Su Ruoxi knitted her brows as she hugged Baby and hurriedly shun to the side.
“You stupid thing. Hit him! Hit him hard! How dare you come to my gambling den and steal things? You must be tired of living. Beat this stupid animal up! To hell with you!” A harsh and arrogant roar followed right after, alongside with a few fairly capable guards.
The few of them raised the weapons in their hands, and roughed up the man who had almost knocked into Su Ruoxi on the floor. Although the few people kept hitting him with all their might, Su Ruoxi discovered that the man being beaten up did not utter a single word and did not even yell in pain.
This made Su Ruoxi raise her eyebrows slightly. An hour later, the few people seemed to be tired of beating him up. Looking at the man, who was not moving at all, one of them drew his long sword out from his waist and slashed the man’s pair of hands.
“Dang…” A sound rang as the man’s sword rebounded.
