Imperial Continent - The Great Phoenix Empire - Emperor study room

------------------

In the present era of The Great Phoenix Empire of The Emperor Tian Xiang. After the news of The Grand General Zhu Yinbing severe injury has been spread. A lot of vassal states outside of the border has tried to free themselves from the clutch of the empire with the instigation of Duke Tian Dong. But that's not the worst, the worst part is that Duke Tian Dong has The Great Phoenix Empire northern army entirely within his hand and the Northern army is the second strongest army beside Eastern Army of Zhu Songtian which is the strongest. And Because the Eastern army needs to watch over the eastern border that connects to the 3 large empires. That's why he can't do anything to duke Tian Dong even he's wanted to.

In front of the Emperor, Three people are standing. One of them is the source of all these troubles that he has been faced in the past 14 years until now.

Zhu Yinbing, the former Grand General of The Great Phoenix Empire. With all of her power has come back to her. Her cold eye hides a deep hatred. The Emperor even feel the room temperature gradually decreasing.

"Now I see you are fully recovered. Zhu Yinbing, Do you want to be reinstated as Grand General?" Asked The Emperor.

"Yes! your majesty" Zhu Yinbing accepted without hesitation she wants to destroy all of Duke Tian Dong force in the northern region and The Grand general position is the best position that can grant her wish.

Emperor looks deep into Zhu Yinbing eye and sees the deep hatred hidden within it. He then looks at Zhu Songtian and sees that he is shaking his head in helplessness.

"Then Grand General Zhu. Restrain yourself of killing too much I don't want the old bloodlust Gu Yinbing to be back in this empire. Do you understand?" The emperor spoke in a commanding tone.

"I'll try Your majesty, Then excuse us we have a lot of work to do" She response then nod at her husband to follow her.

[Take care of her and try not to let her do anything crazy again Capiche?]

The emperor sends telepathy to Zhu Songtian that make him feel even more helpless. His wife right now is at Primary Stage Spirits Ascension realm, while he's only at master stage Spirits Emperor. How the hell is he going to stop her!! It is looking for a beating instead!!

He glares at the emperor with blaming and annoying eye while the emperor looks back at him with like he said: "Deal with it!".

[Damn is he really my sworn brother?]

Zhu Songtian thought to himself. And thinking back When he's just a battalion commander and don't know that he's pursuing the same woman as the emperor that's still an underdog seven prince back then. Yes, that same woman was Zhu Yinbing while she's just a vice general of the royal army.

Many things happen. Zhu Songtian gets the heart of Zhu Yinbing while both of them help the underdog seven princes to be the crown prince and get the throne. They are love rival but at the same time are the brother in arms. They trust each other so much to the point of becoming a sworn brother.

That's why the Emperor never fear the rising power of Zhu Couples to dethrone him. And that's why their family are very close to each other.

Thinking back then, the reason why the emperor never includes Wang Zhao to become his sworn brother might be that the emperor sees through the facade of Wang Zhao.

"Haaah" He sighs in regret and helplessness before following his wife out of the emperor study room.

After Zhu couples exit from the emperor study room. The Emperor turned to look at his son Tian Feng.

"Feng'er give me the report." The emperor asks.

"Yes! Royal father" Tian Feng response before telling the Emperor everything that happens in the hometown of Zhu Wushang in the Desolate continent.

Other than the betrayal of Wang Zhao and the Duke Tian Dong incident. The death of young master Li causes the stir to the emperor the most. He doesn't want to go to war with any sect in the upper realm. He just hopes that the young master Li is not someone significant in the upper realm.

Now from the report, It seems like Zhu Yinbing has attained the Primary stage Spirits Ascension realm. And Zhu Songtian cultivation right now is at the Master stage of Spirits Emperor.

"So, Where's your sister huh? Tian Feng?" The Emperor asked in a relaxing manner.

"Right, err she's in closed-door cultivation right now. And she told me to tell you that if you want Origin God Blood bottle from her. You need to wait after she comes out of her closed-door cultivation, Which should take about six months because she said she feels that her bottleneck to attain the Advance stage of the Spirits Ascension realm is loosen.

When emperor Tian Xiang heard that. He can't help but sigh in admiration for two people and in piety for one people. First, his deceased son-in-law that brought him so much power for The Great Phoenix Empire than he ever imagines in his whole life. Second, Is his daughter that is going to attain the Advance stage of Spirits Ascension just after getting so much power boost.

And Third, The one that he piety is the Duke Tian Dong fate after this. He admits Duke Tian Dong plan seems flawless but… It got screwed up by just a mortal stage of his deceased son-in-law anyway. So, His fate should be very miserable from now on, and he's also happy to oblige to provide him that fate.
