“The Fire Country’s Grand Adviser? You are speaking of Grand Adviser Wen Yu?” Jun Xie asked.
Jun Wu Xie nodded.
“I have never met him. The Fire Country was founded a lot earlier than us and it was already a dominant force by itself at that time. While we fought our little skirmishes, the Fire Country did not even pay any attention to us. Moreover, I heard that the Grand Adviser of the Fire Country never leaves the Imperial Capital and I hadn’t had a chance to meet him.” Jun Xian said.
Jun Wu Xie thought about it a moment and she immediately opened the room’s door and got the Rui Lin Army soldier standing guard outside to go find Lei Chen. After having dealt with those people in the dungeon, Jun Wu Yao said he needed to go into the city to find some things and brought Ye Sha and Ye Mei together with him. If not for that, she would have asked Ye Sha to go as it would have been done more quickly.
Lei Chen came rushing in in a hurry, where luckily, he did not have much to do back at the Fire Country’s camp.
“Your Majesty.” Lei Chen was immediately about to kneel.
Jun Wu Xie instead dispensed with the formalities.
“How are you with drawing?”
Lei Chen was surprised a moment, unable to understand why in the world was Jun Xie asking whether he drew well….. could it be that His Majesty had a love for art?
“Acceptable…..” After Lei Chen was born, the Empress had groomed him well, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, he was skilled in all four of the scholarly arts.
“I need you to draw a portrait of the Grand Adviser for Duke Lin to take a look right now.” Jun Wu Xie said.
Lei Chen was highly puzzled, but even if he did not understand what Jun Wu Xie wanted to do, he still knew how to obey an Imperial order. Lei Chen was now a princely Duke in the Fire Country and was holding a rank similar to Jun Xian, but judging purely in terms of their countries’ might, Lei Chen would be a notch higher. But Lei Chen highly admired Jun Xian and with a nod of his head to Jun Xian, he walked over to the side of the table, picked up a brush and started painting.
Lei Chen’s skills in drawing was rather good, having gained much praise from the Fire Country’s previous Emperor many times, and Wen Yu had been his Master. Before the relationship between the two of them had soured, Lei Chen and Wen Yu had been on very familiar terms. Lei Chen’s brushstrokes flew almost with divinity, his movements quick and precise.
In what seemed like a blink, Lei Chen had already outlined Wen Yu’s countenance accurately. He could see that Jun Xie needed the painting in a hurry and he employed special techniques that did not require too much time but would still be able to draw out a person’s countenance and bearing vividly, looking highly lifelike.
“Duke Lin, please peruse.” Lei Chen blew the ink on the parchment dry and moved his body slightly, while inviting Jun Xian over.
Jun Xian came over to the table and looked at the painting of the handsome young man with his gentle expression and a surprised look came into his eyes.
“It’s really him!”
The countenance depicted upon the painting was exactly the same as what he remembered in his mind. Jun Xian did not dare believe that the young man who had helped them at that time was in reality the Grand Adviser of the Fire Country!
Jun Wu Xie saw Jun Xian’s reaction and she was sure that her guess had been correct. She dismissed Lei Chen for the moment and only Jun Xian and her were left in the room.

Volume 12
Chapter 1181: “Complicit in Crime (6)”
The countenance depicted upon the painting was exactly the same as what he remembered in his mind. Jun Xian did not dare believe that the young man who had helped them at that time was in reality the Grand Adviser of the Fire Country!
Jun Wu Xie saw Jun Xian’s reaction and she was sure that her guess had been correct. She dismissed Lei Chen for the moment and only Jun Xian and her were left in the room.
“Grandfather, is that him?” Jun Wu Xie asked, to reaffirm the fact.
Jun Xian nodded his head resolutely. That face, was one he would never forget his entire life.
“How did he turn out to be the Fire Country’s Grand Adviser…..” Even having seen the portrait of Wen Yu, Jun Xian still found this startling discovery hard to accept. “Before the Qi Kingdom’s founding, the Fire Country had already been established for a long time. And according to rumours, their Grand Adviser….. should already be rather advanced in age. How did it turn out like this…..”
Jun Xian really could not understand why the Fire Country’s Grand Adviser had chosen to suddenly reach out his hand at that time to help people like them.
Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes. Back in the Fire Country, she had already felt that the Grand Adviser was not someone ordinary but as he had been friendly and not shown himself to be a threat, she had not given it much thought, never expecting that the Qi Kingdom’s Soul Calming Jade was given to them by Wen Yu…..
So how did Wen Yu manage get his hands on the Soul Calming Jade?
Having just resolved one mystery, but more and more questions were gathering in Jun Wu Xie’s mind that needed her to find answers for one by one.
Wen Yu’s appearance had not changed all this time and time had not left its trace upon his face in the slightest. Judging based on the way he looked, Wen Yu would be a handsome looking young man only in his twenties, just that his demeanor and mannerisms were completely devoid of the impatient and brashness of youth, but instead showed polished manners that could only be a result from long years of experience and trials.
“Wu Xie, you are now the Emperor of the Fire Country, and this Wen Yu…..” Jun Xian could not help but look at Jun Wu Xie rather worriedly. If Wen Yu was really that person, his capabilities should then not be underestimated and would Jun Wu Xie’s real identity be discovered by Wen Yu?
Jun Wu Xie shook his head.
“The Grand Adviser had not tried to make things difficult for me. He seemed to not want to become overly involved with the affairs of the Fire Country.” Regardless whether it was the truth behind Lei Chen’s birth or about how she had overthrown the Emperor, Wen Yu had remained a bystander who just observed from the side, almost never initiating any actions on his own. His aloof attitude from all matters made one unable to help themselves but be curious as it made him seem completely unconcerned about the Fire Country at all.
Jun Xian sighed slightly in relief. “If I really have the chance to meet him in the future, I would really like to thank him properly. No matter how much trouble this Soul Jade had brought us, but it had preserved your father’s body, keeping it in such perfect condition, which really comforted me.”
Jun Wu Xie nodded, knowing that the Jun Family’s father and son had always longed for Jun Gu to be revived. That wish, she was willing to help them achieve. Based on what she saw in the Jun father and son, she believed that her own “father” would also be a hero worthy of respe
ct.
“Regarding the matter about the Soul Jade, do not let any news about it spread outside for now. The invasion into the Qi Kingdom this time, was all because the Condor Country wanted to snatch the Soul Jade. I will resolve the entire matter and Grandfather will only need to rest and recuperate properly.” Jun Wu Xie said filially. From the bickering among the Commanders, it had not been difficult for her to decipher that they had not known what Lin Xiao was seeking for. With the exception of the Condor Country, the other armies of the three countries had merely been roped in to playing an assisting role and the crux of the problem had come from the Condor Country itself.
“You just rest assured. That jade, one piece of it is with your father, the other is kept on your uncle’s body at all times. Besides our men from the Rui Lin Army and His Majesty, no one else knows that both pieces of the jade are in the Lin Palace.” Jun Xian said.
Volume 12
Chapter 1182: “Complicit in Crime (7)”
Jun Wu Xie thought back to her own soul that had warped over here and the reaction when she had touched the Soul Calming Jade. The amazing golden seed had been infused in her body and she really wanted to attempt to see whether she presently possessed the capability to resist the effects of such a spirit artifact.
“A little later, I will go find Uncle to go take a look at the Soul Jade.” Jun Wu Xie said. If that golden seed gave her the ability to withstand the effects of spirit artifacts, then even when she was to be faced against the Twelve Palaces in the future, she would be equipped with another layer of assurance, afterall…..
[How many magical artifacts do the Twelve Palaces hold in their hands was not known to them.]
Jun Xian nodded.
Jun Wu Xie noticed that Jun Xian was exhibiting a tinge of weariness and she didn’t want to disturb her grandfather any further. She retreated from the room and did not hurry herself to go deal with the other tasks on her hands but walked to the courtyard in the Lin Palace that belonged to her.
The Rui Lin Army soldiers upon seeing Jun Wu Xie appear, suddenly stood at rigid attention. Although their faces were expressionless, their eyes were however filled with smiles.
They all knew, that the little Emperor of the Fire Country before their eyes, was just their very own Young Miss!
Jun Wu Xie did not encounter anyone who stopped her within the Lin Palace. Everyone had a tacit understanding on it all. Returning back to her very own place that she had not lived in for a long time, she found the tables and chairs clean as new. Even when she had asked Long Qi to bring word back that she would not be returning for a long period, her room and the entire courtyard was still kept clean and tidy, like it had always been waiting here to welcome her back home.
Jun Wu Xie lay down in her own room, her nerves that had been pulled taut for an entire year finally able to relax immediately upon lying down there.
The little black cat sat at the edge of the bed, licking its paws lazily as it looked calmly at Lord Meh Meh and the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit wobbling in from outside through the door.
The two innocent beasts had put on quite a big show in the battle before and they had now come rushing in to ask for praise from Jun Wu Xie.
Jun Wu Xie picked up the two naive little beasts in turn onto her bed and enjoyed the momentary peace and tranquility.
Wishing that time would just freeze right at that moment…..
Unknowingly, Jun Wu Xie actually feel asleep as she lay on the bed, haven’t even had the time to clean off all the blood all over her, falling into a sound sleep with her blood smeared armour still on, where even the stench of blood she had always found so unbearable could not even wake her up from her dreams.
In order for them to rush to reach here to the Qi Kingdom in the shortest time possible, she had not even had a chance to close her eyes from the time she left the Thousand Beast City, and had rushed the entire way, the constant rage and worry causing her to be unable to calm her heart. Only after the maniacal massacre and having finally returned back to her old abode her heart had longed so strongly for where she was finally able to let down her guard, pure exhaustion immediately claimed her to drag her into a deep sleep.
The little black cat remained hovering beside Jun Wu Xie and Lord Meh Meh together with the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit were similarly tired and weary. They leaned against Jun Wu Xie’s body and fell soundly asleep as well, leaving only the little black cat who was a spiritual body not feeling the slightest tinge of exhaustion.
It was not known how long a time had passed when light footsteps made the little black cat prick up in alert. It lifted his head to look towards the door and saw Jun Qing having just stepped one foot inside through the door. Upon seeing Jun Wu Xie soundly asleep on the bed, he was slightly startled and he subconsciously lightened his steps, to quietly come to the bedside, pulling the blanket up to cover Jun Wu Xie, before silently slipping himself outside.
The little black car continued to lie on the bed and saw Jun Qing pulling the door shut. It glanced at Jun Wu Xie’s face that was soundly asleep and swished its tail lazily before morphing to silently slip inside Jun Wu Xie’s body.
She…..
Really deserve to give herself a good sleep.
Volume 12
Chapter 1183: “Seeing the Soul Calming Jade Again (1)”
When Jun Wu Xie woke up from her dreams, the sun’s rays were shining in through a window that was slightly ajar, to spill onto the floor.
Lord Meh Meh was sleeping with all four of its hooves sticking up in the air while the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit was sleeping soundly upon Lord Meh Meh’s soft belly. One of Lord Meh Meh’s hooves would twitch occasionally and the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit would subconsciously stretch out a paw to hold down the hoof.
Jun Wu Xie’s mind was still groggy with sleep and her nose was filled with the pungent stench of blood. She massaged her temples as she got off the bed and slowly unbuckled her armour piece by piece to throw them onto the floor, leaving just the cloth robe underneath on her.
The armour fell to the ground in a loud and clear clattering, the noise immediately sending a slight shiver to run through the Rui Lin Army soldier standing guard at the door.
“Your Majesty from the Fire Country, we’ve gotten the hot water all prepared and ready for your use. Would you then like to have a bath?” From outside the door, the Rui Lin Army soldier’s stoic voice came floating in.
Jun Wu Xie frowned slightly and said: “Just have it sent over now then.”
“Yes.” The Rui Lin Army soldier outside stifled the twitch that tugged at the corner of his mouth, trying hard to maintain his stoic composure as he immediately turned to run towards the kitchen to get people to deliver the hot water over.
[The Young Miss has finally awoken!]
His mood was rather joyous, his steps suddenly feeling lighter!
When the hot water was brought into the room, Jun Wu Xie looked at the light in the sky and asked the Rui Lin Army soldier making the delivery.
“How long did I sleep for?”
“Not much, just a day and a half.” The Rui Lin Army said, forcing on a calm front, his hands quickly drawing out the bath for Jun Wu Xie.
“…..” [A day and a half?]
Jun Wu Xie had not thought that she would sleep for so long.
“Within this period, did anything happen out there?” Jun Wu Xie thought that there was no more need to disguise her identity before the Rui Lin Army’s men and she asked in a manner that could not possibly be more nonchalant and casual than she did, completely unlike the “Emperor of the Fire Country” when she had first stepped into the Lin Palace, but acted exactly like a resident member of the Jun Family.
From the mannerisms the Rui Lin Army soldiers had shown her before, she knew that the men must have already guessed her identity so why should she continue to hide it from them?
“Reporting to Young….. Erm, Your Majesty from the Fire Country, the little Lord has left instructions to say after you wake up,
we are to prepare a bath together with a fresh set of clothes for you, and only after you have eaten your meal, are we allowed to tell you about the things happening outside.”
Jun Wu Xie was slightly surprised, and the cold chill in her eyes unconsciously softened a little.
“Got it, you’re dismissed then.”
Her uncle had made these arrangements, seeking to have her worry less and rest more about things. No matter who she was outside, back in the Lin Palace, Jun Qing was her uncle, an elder. His instructions, must therefore be obeyed.
After taking much effort to wash off the blood off her body again and again, she was finally rid of the stench that clung on to her. The clothes that Jun Qing had prepared for Jun Wu Xie was a set of men’s clothes in her size, her sweet and considerate uncle having thought of everything for her.
With the stink of blood fading off from her body, it was slowly replaced by the familiar faint fragrance of herbs.
After she finished her bath, it wasn’t long before highly fragrant and aromatic dishes of food were brought into the room. As she dug into the meal, Jun Qing and Long Qi came walking in, with wide smiles upon their faces.
“At least you know you should eat after waking up. Just how long have you, this little lass, not given yourself proper rest that you have immediately fallen in such a deep sleep for a whole day and a half the moment your head touches the bed? You didn’t even manage to stay awake long enough to eat before that and made me worried you will starve.” Jun Qing nagged as he looked helplessly at Jun Wu Xie. Seeing the scene where his niece who had always been a little obsessed with cleanliness still dressed in her blood caked armour as she slept so soundly immediately upon her head hitting the pillow, Jun Qing found it rather amusing and at the same time causing a slight ache to fill his heart.
