Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress

The sun hid behind sparse clouds and the slight breeze washed over the green hills.

A long procession walked on the road at a moderate speed.

Inside a luxurious horse carriage, Yu Wuhen hugged Chu Qingchuan tightly in his arms. He looked at the scenery out of the window with eyes as serene as a lake. There was no telling whether he was happy or angry.

But when Chu Qingchuan shifted her body to hug him tighter, there was a hint of a smile in his eyes.

In another horse carriage, Chu Yitian held his head up with one hand and yawn. No matter how he tried, he couldn’t get to sleep.

The journey back to the capital was long and arduous, but with a partner, it didn’t seem too far.

A lifetime is a really long time and there would be many changes in the future. However, Yu Wuhen and Chu Qingchuan strongly believed that they could live happily ever after.

…

In the northernmost part of the world, the Fire Lion King was rescued.

 For several days, the Fire Lion King has been melting the vast ice glaciers of the north pole.

 In the north, rivers rose and crops were flooded everywhere. People scattered and ran away in hopes of finding a safe place.

 Most of the people escape near the capital of Beiming because they felt that living beneath the emperor would be the safest option in the face of natural disasters like these.

The capital of Beijing was certainly safe because of Han Moze’s natural ability to freeze everything. So, no matter how fierce a flood was, it did not compare to Han Moze.

But as the floods became more serious in the north, the more furrowed Han Moze’s eyebrows were. This was absolutely no simple natural disaster. They were probably all caused by demons terrorizing mankind.

Knowing this, Han Moze rushed to the North Pole on the dragon with a team of personal guards. They planned to extinguish the demons and save humanity!

If they saw any injured civilians on the way, Han Moze would go down and save innocent lives as fast as possible. Then, he would continue to weave through the clouds and rush towards the North Pole.

The North Pole was severely cold, not a place ordinary people could venture. The further north they went, the thinner and more bitter cold the air was. Lian Jiuhua, the other shadow guards, and Little White Flower shivered non-stop. Their eyebrows and hair were frozen white, but they pushed on because they thought that there was nothing colder. But… they were all wrong.

When Lian Jiuhua and the others couldn’t even lift a finger. All the bones in their body felt like they turned to ice, they finally understood that the North Pole isn’t a place where they were meant to be.

Han Moze turned his head and saw dozens of ice sculptures. “Go back the way we came, to the place we landed before,” he told Green Dragon.

Without another word, Green Dragon headed back to the path they came. An hour later, they arrived at the warmer place where they landed earlier.

Han Moze looked at the dozens of realistic human-shaped ice sculptures that sat on the Green Dragon. The corner of his lips couldn’t help but twitch.

Green Dragon transformed into his human form – a handsome, elegant young man with long hair past his shoulders, dressed in dark green robes.

He walked straight towards the frozen Little White Flower and softly picked her up. A gust of wind wafted by, and Green and Little White Flower disappeared on the spot.

On the road back, Green carried Little White Flower to several taverns and used warm water to defrost her.

Han Moze glanced at the spot where Green disappeared, then walked up to Lian Jiuhua. He knelt down and checked Lian Jiuhua’s pulse.

Lian Jiuhua’s mouth was wide open. He laid completely still on the floor. With his red eyes, he looked rather pitiful, like he was on the verge of tears.

But Han Moze actually thought he looked rather funny. He checked his pulse with a faint smile in the corner of his mouth, when suddenly, his face instantly turned glum.

Thankfully, he returned early. If they continued one more hour on their journey to the North Pole, these shadow guards would have definitely frozen to death.

He placed Lian Jiuhua’s hand down, Han Moze got to his feet and looked in the direction of the North Pole. “Shuang’er, you should be there. Right?” He said his thoughts out loud.
