Chapter 394: Boundless Greed!
Chapter 394: Boundless Greed!
The woman in a majestic crimson phoenix dress slowly turned around and glanced at Instructor Mei Lan, then leisurely said: "So you are here, Mei Lan. I know you will realize it sooner or later."
This woman was actually the Empress of the Feng Empire.
Currently, her right hand was choking the Emperor's neck in her grasp and lifted him until his feet left the ground, while her left hand was holding the Emperor's severed right hand that she forcefully tore from his shoulder earlier.
The Emperor felt suffocated, and his two arms had already been cut by the Empress. He already felt hopeless, but looking at Instructor Mei Lan came toward them made him see a glitter of hope again as he tried to speak while being choked: "H...help... me... Ple...Please..."
Instructor Mei Lan did not even take a glance at the blood-covered Emperor in the grasp of the Empress and sat on one of the nearby seats, then said: "We still have at least five minutes free time before the Elders of Immortal Sword Sect come back here. You can tell me your story."
The Empress laughed out loud after she heard Instructor Mei Lan's words and said: "Is there any meaning for that? You would still forcefully drag me back into Myriad Foxes Academy, right?"
Instructor Mei Lan smiled at the Empress and replied with a leisure tone: "At least I may give you a hand in your revenge before forcefully drag you back into Myriad Foxes Academy if your story interests me."
The Empress smiled in irony as she canceled her illusion-type divine ability, and her disguise as the Empress of Feng Empire slowly faded away.
Zuo Hongzhuang finally decided to show her real appearance to Instructor Mei Lan and the Emperor.
Zuo Hongzhuang had long and straight pink hair. She tied in a twin-looped hairstyle decorated with a luxurious-looking jade hairpin.
Like the other vixens from Fox Race, Zuo Hongzhuang was also a top rare beauty compared with human's females. Even though her beauty still could not be compared to Tang Li Xue's stunning beauty but she had her own advantage over Tang Li Xue, like Instructor Mei Lan.
If Instructor Mei Lan has a gentle and refined type of beauty that could slowly entice and indulge the opposite sex, then Zuo Hongzhuang was more like a delicate beauty that incited the pity and yearning of the opposite sex, then made them wants to spoil her more and more.
Right now, Zuo Hongzhuang's crimson eyes glared at the Emperor with great hatred and fury.
"Y… You are… Hong er?!" The Emperor stuttered, and his speaking tone was filled with shock and fear.
Zuo Hongzhuang started to speak with the Emperor, and her tone was still filled with hatred and anger, but her intention was actually to let Instructor Mei Lan know about everything.
After graduating from Myriad Foxes Academy, all the students could choose their future profession.
Mei Lan chose to become a teacher in the Education Department, but Zuo Hongzhuang chose to become a spy in the human world.
Zuo Hongzhuang infiltrated Feng Empire as a spy from Fox Race and took an identity as the distant relative of an important official in the Feng Empire.
With her top beautiful appearance, she managed to attract many men from different backgrounds. But she also drew many jealous women, and some of them have very powerful backgrounds, like the relative of Empress or Prime Minister.
They even started to deploy many dirty methods to harm her.
Of course, Zuo Hongzhuang did not afraid of them, but all of the men that tried to approach her before canceled their intention and took some distance from her instead because of that, and it certainly hindered her job to gather as much information as a spy from Fox Race.
At her most difficult time, only two people voluntarily helped her despite all the dangers and difficulties.
The first person was the Crown Prince of Feng Empire, Feng Long.
The second person was the Second Prince of Feng Empire and the current Feng Emperor that she tortured, Feng Tian.
Both of them have high positions and the candidate of the next Emperor of the Feng Empire.
Zuo Hongzhuang slowly fell in love with these two individuals because they kept approaching and helping her again and again.
It was actually a fatal accident since she never planned to fell in love with any humans, but the matter of feeling was really random and completely unpredictable sometimes.
If Tang Li Xue heard Zuo Hongzhuang's story too right now, she might find her story identical to some romance drama novels or series in her previous life.
Zuo Hongzhuang knew that she was not a human but a fox in human form, so Feng Long and Feng Tian might not accept her true identity.
Then she decided to give Feng Long and Feng Tian a chance by telling them that she would only marry the person who dared to abandon everything for her and live in seclusion with her.
Zuo Hongzhuang was ready to get disappointed by this. It would not be strange if both Feng Long and Feng Tian refused her offer and decided to leave her.
But the Crown Prince of Feng Empire, Feng Long, decided to abandon everything!
His wealth, his chance to be the next Emperor of Feng Empire, his authority, including his status as a Crown Prince... He gave it all to the second prince, Feng Tian, for the sake to be with Zuo Hongzhuang.
Zuo Hongzhuang felt moved by Feng Long's sacrifice, and she decided to tell him her true identity as a fox in human form to Feng Long.
Just like what Zuo Hongzhuang had expected, if Feng Long even dared to abandon everything for her, then he would definitely accept her identity as a fox in human form too.
Their marriage was not approved by both of their families, but they decided to elope and seclude themselves from the others in the quiet mountain.
With Zuo Hongzhuang's strength as Spirit Ranked Beast, the beast in this quiet mountain would never be able to harm them, and she could easily set an illusion barrier so no human would enter their place.
Zuo Hongzhuang lived happily with Feng Long in the deepest part of that quiet mountain.
It should be a happy ending until there, but most humans always have boundless greed.
Even if Feng Long did not have that kind of greed, but it did not mean that his little brother, the second prince, Feng Tian, also like that.
After Feng Tian managed to become an Emperor of the Feng Empire by using dirty means to poisoned the previous Emperor, his royal father, his yearning to possess Zuo Hongzhuang became stronger day by day.
Feng Tian deliberately spread rumors about the previous Emperor's fatal illness to bait his older brother, Feng Long, out of his seclusion.
Just like what he already predicted, Feng Long really came out of his seclusion to meet their dying father.
At that time, Zuo Hongzhuang was actually pregnant with their baby.
Feng Long fell under Feng Tian's scheme and got caught, but unfortunately, Zuo Hongzhuang could not save him at that time because of her pregnancy.
The pregnancy period of Beast Race was completely different from Human Race.
The pregnancy period would take longer than a year depending on the grade level of the beast. The higher the grade level of the beast and the richer the Vitality Energy contained inside their beast core, the longer it would take them to give birth to their babies.
They would also not be able to use their divine abilities in their pregnancy period.
Zuo Hongzhuang needed one year and four months to give birth to her baby.
In that one year and four months, her husband, Feng Long got cruelly tortured by Feng Tian, but Feng Fong still refused to tell any clue about the location of Zuo Hongzhuang until he died in gruesome death.
Because Feng Long knew that Zuo Hongzhuang was still pregnant, and she would not be able to defend herself if Feng Tian came to seize her at this time.
When Zuo Hongzhuang heard the news about Feng Long's death, she fell into deep sorrow and despair.
She really wanted to avenge his death so badly, but after giving birth, she exhausted most essence in her beast core and greatly weakened.
This was another weakness of Beast Race though it only applied to females…
If the female Beast Race gave birth to their cub or baby, they would enter a weakened period for many years!
Zuo Hongzhuang decided to patiently recover herself first and took care of her baby until her baby was strong enough to pass the trial to enter Myriad Foxes Academy while kept looking at the information and the people who were involved in her husband's death.
That was the reason why Zuo Hongzhuang made her move to avenge her husband's death just recently.

"Wait a minute… There is something I still do not understand. If you want your child to enter Myriad Foxes Academy, then why do you bring him here to help you?" Instructor Mei Lan asked with a curious tone.
"…..That child is my daughter. Sigh… she is just too stubborn and did not want to listen to me. She said she rather follow me to avenge her father's death rather than joining Myriad Foxes Academy." Zuo Hongzhuang shook her head in disappointment.
"Oh, so she is a girl! Really... I guess she is just like her mother in that aspect... Then why do you deliberately leave some trace for us to track? You want us to bring your daughter back to Myriad Foxes Academy?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again.
"That is right. Please, I want you to bring her back to Myriad Foxes Academy. At least, she would be safe there... and my father might even dote on her very much..." Zuo Hongzhuang replied to Instructor Mei Lan with a half-begging tone.
"Then what about you?" Instructor Mei Lan asked for the third time while stood from her seat.
Zuo Hongzhuang frowned deeply and replied in annoyance: "I still have some unfinished business to take care of. I will come back to Myriad Foxes Academy later."
"What a big Liar~! You must be too ashamed to come back to Myriad Foxes Academy and meet with your parents, right? You have too much pride and too stubborn to do that, so you plan to sacrifice yourself here and try to kill some Elders of Immortal Sword Sect. You even go so far as to push your daughter to us rather than bring her back yourself to Myriad Foxes Academy." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and spoke with a mocking tone.
Zuo Hongzhuang shook her head and explained: "I hand her over to you because I trust you, Mei Lan. I am sure that you can bring her back to Myriad Foxes Academy without my help."
"No matter what you say, I will still drag you back to Myriad Foxes Academy with me. Even if I must forcefully break your four limbs, pull out all your tails, or cripple you first before you yield to me." Instructor Mei Lan said with an excited smile on her face as she cracked her knuckles.
