Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress

Chapter 227: A Doomed Relationship In The Past Life

Nangong Ba fell silent for a moment, then smiled.

“The deputy’s wife, Qin Siyue, was formally my father’s wife. It was love at first sight for my father and soon after meeting her, he proposed. The Qin family was delighted to marry Siyue off to my father but she liked the deputy, so after she was forced to marry my father, she would be rude to my father. My father never treated Qin Siyue lovingly and later on, she and the deputy secretly plotted to kill my father when she was pregnant with Lin Yimei. Before my father passed away, he told me not to harm his younger brother, his wife, and the innocent Lin Yimei. He said that everything was his fault.”

“That wasn’t even your father’s fault! Your father simply didn’t know Qin Siyue liked the deputy,” Liu Rushuang cried in a furious voice.

Nangong Ba noticed at the scorned look of injustice on Liu Rushuang’s face and smiled meekly. “So what if it’s not my father’s fault? I’m just fulfilling his last wish.”

Liu Rushuang let out a subtle sigh. Oh how nature plays one! “Then, who are you really?” She continued to ask in a flat tone of voice.

Nangong Ba had just opened his mouth to speak when a red, old eagle swooped in and let out a thunderous squawk.

“Coo... Phoenix!” The old, red eagle flew to Liu Rushuang’s chest.

Liu Rushuang could only reach her arm out straight and let the old eagle land on it. “Are you my soul?” She softly chuckled.

“Coo... Yes. Of course, when you reincarnated, you purposefully took three soul strengthening pills. Your soul turned into three birds to take your place by Ice Dragon, Demon Fox, and the Demon Master’s side. Since they were your best friends growing up.”

Liu Rushuang glanced at Nangong Ba. She already guessed that Ze was the Ice Dragon and Nangong Ba was the Demon Fox. However, how did they end up reincarnated?

Liu Rushuang pointed at the center of her own brows and flatly said, “Enter my body and return my memories.”

“Coo... alright, Phoenix!” With that, the red eagle merged into Liu Rushuang’s forehead. In an instant, the plum blossom on the heart of Liu Rushuang’s forehead illuminated a faint golden glow.

Once again, Liu Rushuang’s eyes turned a radiant red and her skin turned a little paler.

Nangong Ba gulped. He got aroused.

Images of Han Moze, Nangong Ba, and the Demon Master all together flashed instantly on Liu Rushuang’s mind, as well as images of the immortal realm.

When she saw the Demon Master beat both Han Moze and Nangong Ba off from the Celestial Pearl Podium, Liu Rushuang felt an intense tremble around her whole body.

Thereafter, she heavily defeated the Demon Master and sealed him in the Demon Palace on the horizon of heaven.

Then, she ate three Soul Strengthening pills, conjuring three birds.

Finally, she leaped off the Celestial Pearl Podium heartbroken.

...

That... The more Liu Rushuang thought about it, the more her heart ached. Every scene was so beautiful, but in the end, it was so sad.

Teardrops fell from Liu Rushuang’s beautiful red eyes, then she walked over and tightly hugged Nangong Ba.

“Demon Fox, I’m sorry! I turned you into this! If it weren’t for me, then you wouldn’t have reincarnated and ended up like this right now. You were meant to like happily in the immortal realm as the second prince of the fox race.”

Nangong Ba tightly clutched onto the wheelchair and felt lost over everything. All he could do was emotionlessly say, “Shuang’er, stop crying. You didn’t let me down.”

Liu Rushuang hugged Nangong Ba even tighter as she digested what happened a long time ago. Everything turned out to be her fault.

Nangong Ba felt Liu Rushuang’s soft body tightly stuck onto his own chest and couldn’t resist but gulp. He really wanted to kiss Shuang’Er!
