Wu Chang Jie

Chapter 83
A tall, dark figure flashed into the Orchid Garden in a hurry. On closer inspection, it was a masked man, and the person he was protecting beside him was none other than Chu Ying Ruo.

"Mother!"

"Xiao Er!"

Mother and son saw each other again and nearly shed tears.

Zong Zi Heng glared at the masked man. The image of Hua Yu Xin before she died came to his mind and he was filled with hatred.

A large group of guards poured into the Orchid Garden. The torches in their hands illuminated the almost forgotten hall as bright as day, making its lying waste unable to vanish.

Escorted by the brothers Huang Hong and Huang Wu, Zong Ming He arrived. His luxurious white gold royal robes appeared even more distinguished in the darkness of the night, seemingly a world apart from the sneaky man in black, but the most beautiful woman in Jiuzhou, the woman who had belonged to him originally, was standing on the other side.

Zong Ming He's eyes were vicious and spiteful, as if jealousy was about to take shape and burst out of his pupils.

Zong Zi Xiao looked at the masked man with a complicated expression, and then looked at the man he had called his father for 14 years. His lips moved, not knowing what to say.

Chu Ying Ruo stared hatefully at Zong Zi Heng: "This is really a trap you set up."

To sneak into the most heavily guarded Wuji Palace in Jiuzhou to rescue someone was a desperate move, how could it be foolproof? Zong Zi Heng's face was ghastly pale, but he did not dare to explain in front of Zong Ming He.

Zong Ming He narrowed his eyes, "It seems that son knew that this vermin was still alive."

Zong Zi Heng pursed his lips and did not say a word.

Zong Zi Xiao stiffly turned his face, gazing at Zong Zi Heng with silent and deep eyes, as if the light of his pupils had disappeared in this moment of his life, never to be lit up again for the rest of his life thereafter.

Zong Ming He looked viciously at the masked man: "Manwhore*, you have no face to show to others?"

Upon hearing his words, the masked man pulled off his mask. Shadowy and handsome, it was none other than Lu Zhao Feng. He stared at Zong Ming He and his eyes were furious: "Ying Ruo and I are in love with each other. The one who has no face to show to others, should be you. A dog thief who hit upon the idea when smitten with love."

"I am the Human Emperor, a mere woman is nothing. Even if I want you to die, you will have to kneel down and offer me your life!"

Lu Zhao Feng shouted, "Human Emperor! Does everyone in the world know that the Human Emperor had my entire family killed in order to forcibly marry a woman?"

The people in the audience looked at each other in disbelief.

"Small vermin, how dare you make slanderous accusations and offend the emperor!" Huang Hong drew his sword and attacked Lu Zhao Feng. Huang Wu also immediately lashed out, and a crowd of guards all came back from their senses to attack the three.

Zong Zi Xiao snatched the sword from one of the guards. He protected Chu Ying Ruo behind him and joined the fight.

Zong Zi Heng stood aside with his sword, sweat dripping into his eyes from his forehead, and his vision blurred for a while.

Zong Ming He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, looking coldly at Zong Zi Heng: "Zi Heng, why don't you take down this manwhore and their son of a b*tch?"
