Xing had prepared her heart and honed her skills to face Shihong and Old Rong properly and eradicate them in the past days. The dream she had still repeats sometimes but now Chenglei's voice saying "Live!", will be echoing in her ears. She still had little doubts that if everything will be fine after she ends Old Rong and if the gods will keep their promise and leave them alone but she had decided to fight for it. She cannot lose the one life she has for nothing.

Also making love with Chenglei felt too good and she is not satisfied with one time. She wanted more of it.

There were plannings going on for a mass celebration for the Heavenly Emperor, another festival they had forgotten to celebrate over years. That festival was to celebrate the Empire and praying for the longevity of the Emperor as he is considered the Son of the Heavenly Emperor.

The day before the celebrations, only Maya visited her as Takano had symptoms of pregnancy and was asked to rest. Xing was happy for her brother and more so for her father who still was grieving for her mother. She thought that having a little one in the Manor would greatly improve his mood and she wished it was a girl. Surely her father would really admire a granddaughter.

Xing looked at Maya making tea with her in a doubtful manner. Maya's been learning the art of making tea from Xing these days and was greatly improving. But she seemed different today and Xing had a speculation that she might be pregnant. But it is entirely impossible with the way her father is watching like a hawk. So how...?

Xing realised Seiren hovering outside her courtyard and asked him in. That guy had a skip in his step and hiding his mirth behind the silk fan he was holding and Xing realised Her speculation is right.

She plucked the fan from his hand and started hitting him in the head with his fan.

"Milord! Why are you hitting me?", he screamed and ran in circles to escape from her but he was not agile as Xing and got his fair share of hits from her. Maya tried to stop Xing but was met with her angry glare and she just pretended to not see her man getting hit like a dog and stood by a corner.

"You dirty pervert! How dare you do this to my unmarried sister?", Xing asked him who was now kneeling in front of her.

"I'm sorry! I thought no one would agree to our marriage!", he spoke pitifully. His lustrous hair was all dishevelled and was sticking to his face now wet with sweat. He looked like a woman who was abused!


Xing immediately sat in her table and wrote an edict for the daughter of Huang AoTian to be married to the Lord of the Zhong household. Even without her seal, her words alone carried weight and so she didn't use the phoenix seal.

"Milord! My mother already approved.... Still this will help a lot. Thank you... You can hit me a thousand more times... It didn't even hurt a lot..! ", Seiren looked happy.

"You, scoundrel! I'm hitting you lightly because I don't want my sister to have a lame husband. If you ever hurt her, I'll kill you myself, remember that! ", Xing smacked hard in his head that was now floating in the sky now out of happiness.

Xing made sure Maya is accepted to her Huang family because she knew no one will talk against AoTian's daughter and now with their marriage arranged by the Empress the entire nation loved, her position would be secured and everyone will think twice before talking bad about her. She knew there were rumours floating around that Maya is a traitor and Xing wanted to stop such things from happening in the future.

Maya had tears running down her cheeks as she was overjoyed by the love she is getting from Xing and Xing just hugged her and patted her back, "Don't stress yourself! My nephew should be born healthy"

"Or niece!", Seiren interjected.

"It's a boy, I'm sure... And Congratulations! ", Xing said looking at Maya's belly. That's what the feeling she got.... It must be a boy!

"Wait...", Xing ran to her bedchambers and brought a cutlass sword out.

She removed the ordinary looking sheath out and then she removed the hilt that was screwed in to reveal an older hilt and Maya fell on her knees seeing the final revealed sword. There was a lion in the hilt decorated with emeralds and rubies and that was the sword of the Brave lion of the seas... Maya's father!

"Don't know if you've heard but your sister denounced the Arsalan name and burnt your entire Manor. I've had some people sent there and they brought this to me... What have you decided?", Xing asked.

She wanted to know if she heard this, will she want to go back there to avenge for her family name.

" Mingxia, did you know, I killed my father? ", she said and that did surprise Xing and she realised Seiren wasn't that surprised. So he already knew.

" They were going to impale my father and I could not bear to see him suffer like that and so I...with my own hands killed him. Will you ever do such a cruel thing? Killing the one you love with your own hand? Committing the biggest sin there is..? That was why they erased my name... For killing my own father ", she looked at Xing.

Xing snorted as she remembered she has made a promise with the Tianshi Emperor that she'll be the one killing him. And she will have to do that if he comes to collect his debt. Isn't killing one's ancestor a great sin too?

" Honey, you don't know me... I will!", she smiled, "So about..."

" My sister... She loves the kingdom more than anything and it is understandable she denounced the Arsalan family. But I... I only loved my father... With him gone, I have nothing there and so I'm not returning there. I am a Huang by name and I am carrying a Zhong. My son will grow up in this land and will fight for his kingdom as did his ancestors. This is a choice I made before stepping foot inside this place and gave myself to him", she looked at Seiren who had an understanding smile.

"Fine then! Your son has the blood of two great warriors running through him. I don't know much about your father and only heard about him but if he is half as good as the Oldman and your father, he will be much more great than the single one of them. So, raise him well", Xing said and gave that sword to Maya. "Your father would want you to have this sword!".

Maya who was still kneeling, accepted the sword with both of her hands. Little did they knew that in a couple of years, she'd be welding this sword leading the Zhong army against the Sky army led by her sister and that would become one of the glorious battle Xing had witnessed.

The next day, the ceremony was held and in the platform meant to conduct these ceremonies was decorated with lanterns and flowers.

The Emperor and the Empress with their golden robes fluttering in the gentle wind entered the ceremonial venue with Mo Chen walking by their side adding to their resplendance and the priestess started the ceremony.

"The time has come!", Priestess Shu murmured to Xing, "Your time to end it all!"

Xing had a soft smile in her lips. She was expecting this.

As usual during the ceremony there were symbols in the sky of that of the dragon and a tiger making Xing roll her eyes. The gods cannot keep away!

After the prayers were finished, a gentle shower fell from the Sky signalling the acceptance of their prayers and everybody went to the Imperial Court for proper greeting of the Emperor.

As usual, the Emperor and Empress were seated on the Dragon Throne and the other concubines were in other seats. All the officials came one by one and said their greetings to the Emperor and the Empress. Everyone wrote poems about the beauty and the valiance of the Emperor and the Empress.

AoTian looked at his daughter sitting high above and his eyes could not hide the pride he felt.

In the middle of it, Xing received a letter and her face became sombre.

So it begins!

"I'll be leaving, Kouki!", Xing whispered to the Emperor who was shocked by her sudden declaration.

But she had a calm and composed face with her eyes burning with the determination she had and she stood up stunning the entire court.

With everyone watching, Xing asked Weiye to accompany the Emperor and even lead her through the stairs.... Carefully. Xing could sense she was pregnant,. She must have hidden it from everyone fearing something might happen to the baby.

Good!

Xing felt like what she has to do is all finished and she was relieved.

Leaving Weiye who was perplexed as others by the Emperor's side, Xing turned to leave when her hand was gripped hard by the Emperor.

"Mingxia! Be careful and return soon", he said with a gentle smile in his lips hiding the mixture of emotions he was feeling.

Xing nodded and got down through the stairs when Mo Chen tried to follow her. He always preferred to stay by her side as she walked around a lot.

"Stay with your Master!", she said in the Guyu language and Mo Chen obeyed her command. Good boy! She gave him to the Emperor and he will belong to him. Even though she loved him too, this is where he will live. And he will only be the only person who won't betray the Emperor no matter what. He'll need him more!

Xing got down the stairs when she noticed AoTian worried for her and turned to get near her father , " It is nothing father, I feel a bit tired. I will be in my courtyard taking rest! ", she lied through her teeth.

Her brother by her father's side felt something weird the way she is acting too but before he said anything, Xing turned at him, "Brother, make sure to keep father from going ballistic. I'll be back soon. And daddy, I love you! You too brother! ", she said with a smile and in a slightly casual time helping those two men of her family calm their heart.

She then remembered her entering the Court during the coronation. Back then Minister Sheng opposed her and now he is one of the few regulars who drank her tea in her father's office.

I came in through the officials entrance as I took it as a job. Now with the satisfaction of job well done, I will leave this place!

When I entered, Chenglei was in front of me and when I leave, I still have Chenglei in front of me, waiting for me! I'm coming to you, my Prince! Let's be together for the rest of our life!

Xing left the Imperial Court through the exit for the court officials and unlike the time she entered there wasn't any flower petals falling from above or a translucent dragon made appearances but the hearts of every official in the court felt a slight tug for some unknown reasons.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the one with a transcendent beauty with the golden hair and the golden eyes now in a golden robes that made her look more majestic,waving the court she ruled for the past six months as the Empress.

No one would have guessed that this would be the last time they will be seeing the Empress Huang! Would they've let them go if they knew...?

Well... Time cannot be reversed, can it?
