Ayao continued, "Leaving aside the Dragon Clan, let's talk about the outside world. Has anything major happened there? For example, what's the latest news about that female immortal who impersonated the Phoenix Clan's former emperor, Feng Wu, who caused such a stir before?"
The maid replied, "Nothing major has happened outside these days. As for the female immortal you mentioned, it is said that the Phoenix Emperor has been searching for her, but has not found her."
Just as Ayao was about to continue questioning, she sensed a murderous intent. She looked ahead and saw a bolt of lightning flashing silver-white light rushing towards her. Within the lightning was a figure—a small boy who looked like a delicate, beautiful sculpture.
The little boy's tender face was full of anger. He slapped out one of his white, tender hands towards A Yao, and a huge, illusory dragon claw shadow grabbed at A Yao. The space shook violently, and lightning crackled, enveloping A Yao's head.
Ayao dodged instantly, and the maids, seeing the situation was not good, also immediately moved aside.
After A Yao dodged the attack, the dragon claw shadow blasted a deep crater in the ground.
Seeing that A Yao had dodged the attack, Wu Shuang immediately pounced on her.
A Yao flew upwards, and Wu Shuang chased after her. He reached out and grabbed at the void, and silver chains appeared from the air, pursuing A Yao. A Yao dodged continuously, the chains following her like a shadow. With a wave of her hand, a long sword appeared in her hand.
With a single slash of her longsword, she severed all the pursuing chains.
All around Wushuang, enormous silver-white lightning orbs had appeared, forming a huge circle behind him, each orb emitting terrifying electric light.
Wushuang glared at Ayao angrily and said, "You bastard pheasant, you seduced Father Emperor, I, the Crown Prince, will kill you."
Ayao looked at the little child and raised her chin slightly: "Little mudfish, don't frame me. It was clearly your father who seduced me and then imprisoned me here."
"Nonsense, you mongrel pheasant! I'll pluck your feathers and roast you!" Wushuang roared angrily, as all the lightning orbs behind him shot toward Ayao, illuminating the entire space.
With a wave of her hand, A Yao conjured up a series of enormous fireballs that flew toward the incoming lightning balls and collided high in the sky.
Boom! The explosion was deafening, the shockwave spreading outwards in concentric circles. Ancient runes appeared on all the nearby buildings, and layers of magical arrays activated automatically to resist the shockwave.
"You hairless little mudfish, you think you can roast me? I'd rather you be grilled into a charcoal-grilled mudfish and eaten!" Ayao said with a laugh.
She flashed in front of Wushuang and punched her in the stomach, sending her flying.
A loud bang!
Wushuang was sent flying thousands of miles away, crashing into a stone pillar in the distance.
As a dragon, and also Luo Bai's clone, A Yao knew this kid was pretty tough. Wu Shuang jumped up from the ground in a sorry state, furious. He roared, and a gigantic, silver-white dragon phantom thousands of feet long appeared behind him. His roar shook the surrounding buildings, causing cracks to appear.
Ripples spread beneath his feet, and a massive magic circle unfolded.
Tens of thousands of silver-white chains shot out from the magic array beneath his feet like a torrent, overwhelming A Yao. A Yao chuckled, her azure eyes turning ice-blue. White breath escaped from her, and the surrounding space suddenly dropped, freezing everywhere with crackling sounds.
Numerous frost formations continuously appeared around her. These frost formations, resembling giant hexagonal snowflakes, swirled and pressed down on the silver-white chains, freezing them before severing them in a spiral.
Bang bang bang bang bang——
The loud noise kept going on and on.
Enraged, Wushuang simply transformed into his true form.
His body suddenly swelled up, transforming into a giant silver-white dragon that lunged at A Yao with bared fangs and claws.
Although he is only a little over two thousand years old, his body is still a thousand feet long for a pure-blooded true dragon. His huge dragon body is covered with silver-white scales with patterns exactly the same as Luo Bai's true form. An ancient and vicissitude-like aura emanates from this true dragon's body.
The dragon roared, sounding like thunder.
Countless eyes were now fixed on this side, and countless divine senses were watching A Yao and Wu Shuang fight. No one stopped Wu Shuang and A Yao from attacking.
No one in the Dragon Clan would want a "hybrid pheasant" as their queen, but Luo Bai's words were an imperial edict, and no one dared to disobey. They dared not openly do anything to A Yao, but they were happy to see the Third Prince beat A Yao up; they would have liked to kill her.
As for the Third Prince, His Majesty dotes on him so much, surely he wouldn't punish him so severely for something like this?
Even if they couldn't kill her, they would be happy to see Ah Yao, that bastard pheasant, suffer.
Therefore, no one interfered with Wushuang and Ayao's battle. But as they watched, they sensed something was amiss; it seemed the Third Prince couldn't defeat this mongrel pheasant. What should they do? Should they intervene?
But that mongrel pheasant is His Majesty's concubine!
Their interference is an act of insubordination.
boom!
A Yao was surrounded by flames, and huge phoenix wings spread out behind her. She even used the power of wind and thunder, and like a huge star falling from the sky, she crashed straight into Wu Shuang.
A Yao was too fast; Wu Shuang was kicked away and crashed into the ground. The silver-white dragon struck the ground, causing it to shake violently. Fortunately, the ground was exceptionally solid; the runes trembled like flowing water and did not crack, but Wu Shuang was furious.
He was being beaten up, and kept being beaten up.
Wushuang transformed back into human form, and just as he was about to use the magic weapon Luo Bai had given him, a beam of light descended from the sky and landed between Ayao and Wushuang.
The newcomer was dressed in flowing white robes embroidered with silver dragons and cloud patterns. A jade pendant hung at his waist, and his long silver hair was like being studded with starlight. His features were like those of a beautifully carved jade, and his handsome eyebrows and eyes were like light golden amber soaked in spring water. His lips were curved in a smile, a smile that resembled petals fluttering in the sky.
Luo Bai finally showed up.
Upon seeing Luo Bai, Wushuang felt incredibly wronged. He immediately pounced on Luo Bai, hugging him with his two delicate white hands, and looked at him, complaining:
"Father, this bastard pheasant is bullying me!"
The silver-haired, golden-eyed boy pointed at A Yao, his cheeks puffed out in anger.
Luo Bai smiled at A Yao, then reached out and stroked Wu Shuang's head, saying, "You can't be rude. A Yao is younger than you, so you have to be considerate of her."
"What? She's younger than me?" Wushuang's eyes widened.
Ayao smiled and said, "I'm 1,151 this year, how about you?"
