C1635 Princess's tear
4The blue starry sky, the majestic and ancient sky godly temple, and the ancient Ice Plains City. This was a magnificent scene, like a colorful drawing in a history book that turned yellow.
The King's Hall was located right beside the Sky Temple, so its shape was very unique. When Xia Lei first saw it, he felt that it was a bit like a gothic cathedral. Its doors were high, and rows of huge stone columns supported a dome with a semicircular apex. That door was at least ten metres tall, and standing in front of it, even the Evil Moon Army's Giant Warriors looked insignificant.
This was the palace, but the Ahimis did not have a king here to manage things. This Ice Plains City was actually controlled by a few noble families, and they did not allow a Ahimis King to stand above them.
Lan Ji'er was an example. She was a Royal and was of the highest level of nobility, and possessed the bloodline of the Saint King Lan Ling. However, she had been pushed aside. If not for her father Lan Mu bringing her away from Ice Plains City a long time ago, she would have died there and then.
The royal power was above all else, but it was also built on strength. If he didn't have the strength, then he would just be killed.
The interior of the palace was grand and imposing. The distance between the ground and the dome was at least thirty meters, almost ten stories high.
A statue of a Ahimis warrior was placed under the walls of the palace. He was dressed in armor and had a huge blade in his hand, giving off a domineering aura. The base of the statue had the words "Saint King Lan Ling" written on it.
To the left and right of the statue of the Saint King Lan Ling was a flight of steps. Between the two steps was a circular space, which was located in the middle of the palace. At the foot of the Saint King Lan Ling's statue, there was a table, it was independent.
As soon as he entered the palace, he walked straight towards the table at the foot of the Saint King Lan Ling's sculpture. That independent table was obviously his seat as the City Lord, which also represented his highest authority here.
The seats on both sides of the steps had long since been filled. They were all dressed neatly, and were looking coldly at Xia Lei and Lan Ji'er who had just walked into the palace.
The interior of the palace was grand and imposing, the Ahimis nobles were dressed extravagantly, but Xia Lei could smell a trace of rotten smell. He could also tell that when he was chatting with Lan Mu and his father, Lan Ji'er, Lan Shan and Lan Bing, had already prepared everything.
Lan Ji'er finally let go of Xia Lei's hand and walked to the circular empty space in the middle of the seats.
Xia Lei did not follow her, but stood at the edge of the round clearing. His wife was the Princess Saint Ice, and in her body was the Saint King Lan Ling's bloodline. She should be the Queen of Ahimis, as he wanted to help her become the most respected woman in the world of Ahimis. Now, he couldn't take away her limelight.
Lan Ji'er walked to the center of the circular space and stopped, "Do you still remember me? I am Lan Ji'er, your Princess Saint Ice. "
She identified herself, but no one stood up to salute her. In reality, not to mention bowing, there wasn't even a reply. All the nobles looked at her coldly. Their gazes of contempt and ridicule were as though they were looking at a clown who was really performing a comical performance.
Lan Ji'er awkwardly shrugged her shoulders, "Alright, looks like you guys no longer remember me. "I came back this time to guide my clansmen through this crisis. My husband is ?"
Without waiting for her to finish speaking, Lan Shan interrupted Lan Ji'er's words. "Lan Ji'er, no one here thinks you are some kind of princess. Don't even mention leading your clansmen through any danger, we don't believe you at all. Your father said ten years ago that he would help us redeem the Star of Ice, but ten years have passed and we are still here. Do you think we'll still believe you and your daughter? "
Lan Ji'er said: "I've tried my best! In these ten years, my father and I had been thinking about how to earn money everyday and give it to Lan Sidi, but that woman had lied to me and my father. Furthermore, my father and I risked our lives to retrieve the spirit stones from the tribe of prisoners, the sacred artifact left behind by the Saint King Lan Ling! It was my father and I who continued our plan to search for the Saint King Lan Ling's stone. When we were working hard, what were you doing? On what basis do you not believe us! "
"Enough!" Lan Bing reprimanded, "Lan Ji'er! "You want to know where this is. Is this a place where you can make a racket?"
"Don't change the subject!" Lan Ji'er's voice became louder, "The blue moon man is nearby, we can attack this place at any time. You guys are not thinking about how to unite, but you are thinking about your own benefits, afraid that I will take away your rights! Have you forgotten how our empire was destroyed? It's you nobles who are lustful of power and corrupt! More than three thousand years ago, our empire was still unable to be revived. Isn't that your fault? "
"How dare you!" "You're not some princess at all, and you don't have the bloodline of the Saint King Lan Ling in your body. That's only a lie your father made up to deceive the common people! This lie has existed for more than 20 years. It is time to make it disappear! "
Lan Ji'er was so angry that she started laughing, "What? You didn't do anything to me ten years ago, and now you're regretting it. Now you have the chance to do it to me, right? "
"Liar!" Liar! "
"Judgement her!"
"And her craftsman father! What bullsh * t Wang Jue, he's just a joke! "
"Many civilians have been deceived by him. It's time to expose this scam!"
"Yes!" Judge him! "
Lan Ji'er's eyes became misty. She was a strong woman and could not easily cry, but now her heart was truly hurt. For the sake of the future of the Ahimis, she and her father, father Lan Mu, had given up their dignity and painstakingly made money. They had even risked their lives to steal the spirit stones from the prison tribes. It was slander! Abandoned! It was betrayal! There were even conspiracies!
She and her father had given up everything they had, but this was the return to her and her father of the nobles who controlled Ice Plains City.
She turned around and glanced at Xia Lei. At this moment, she really wanted to jump into his embrace and cry.
Xia Lei looked at her and slightly nodded his head towards her, the corner of his mouth revealing a slight smile of encouragement. He didn't say anything, but Lan Ji'er seemed to have obtained sufficient courage. His smile was the most effective chicken soup for her. With a light stroke, it healed the wound in her heart.
Withdrawing his gaze from Xia Lei, Lan Ji'er suddenly roared out, "All of you shut up!"
The palace hall immediately quieted down, completely devoid of sound.
The nobles looked at Lan Ji'er in shock and fury. They couldn't believe that she would dare to talk to them in such a tone!
However, this silence only lasted for two seconds.
"The one who should shut up is you!" Suddenly, Azure Mountain gave a meaningful glance to the family warrior at the door.
A large group of clan warriors walked in and pointed their energy rifles at Xia Lei.
One of the leading clan warriors pointed his gun at Xia Lei's shoulder and said, "Go in!"
Xia Lei shook his head and laughed bitterly: "Don't be rash, otherwise, people will die."
"Shut your stinky mouth!" Lan Bing snapped, "Bring him in! "Together with this slut for judgement!"
Xia Lei was pushed into the circular space and stood together with Lan Ji'er.
"Hubby, I ?" Lan Ji'er suddenly crawled into Xia Lei's embrace, burying her face into Xia Lei's chest. It was also at that moment that two blue colored tears rolled down from her eyes, as beautiful as a gem.
Xia Lei gently caressed her hair and comforted her, "You've already tried hard, don't be sad. I'm your man, so leave the rest to me, okay? "
Lan Ji'er nodded.
"Truly shameless!" Someone scolded.
"Judgement!" Judge this shameless bastard pair! "
"This is simply blaspheming Saint King Lan Ling!"
"We should burn them to death!"
"Burn them to death tonight! Let those commoners see what happens if they go against us! "
The sound of cursing and shouting for murder filled the air.
Xia Lei's face was calm. Right now, these voices that insulted him and Lan Ji'er were no longer able to arouse the anger in his heart. In his heart, there was only indifference. In this state, he was the most terrifying, because this was the mental state before he was prepared to kill.
At this moment, Blue Mountain raised his hands. "Everyone, quiet down. Let's begin the judgement!"
The noisy scene immediately became quiet.
Lan Shan continued to speak, "I shall now state my first sin, Lan Ji'er. Do you admit your sin by marrying a human?"
Lan Ji'er raised her head from Xia Lei's embrace, "It's my freedom who I marry, and there's no rule in the laws of the Ahimis that does not allow one to marry a human.
"You are truly shameless. The women of Ahimis view purity as more important than life, yet you are married to a human. It's no use trying to quibble. You betrayed the prison for ten years. Your title of Princess Saint Ice is fake and should be cancelled. You are now just a commoner, and will not enjoy any special treatment in prison. " Azure Mountain's voice was cold and emotionless.
Lan Ji'er laughed bitterly, "Hubby, I was wrong. I had always thought that I would be able to use my method to convince them to make decisions that would benefit the Ahimis, but now it seems that not only was I wrong, I was ridiculously wrong. "
Xia Lei gently shook her hand, his expression already ice-cold to the extreme.
Nan Shan's gaze shifted towards Xia Lei, and a trace of disdain surfaced on the corner of his mouth, "As for you, human brat, you've offended the strong. The crime of adulterating Ahimis woman Lan Ji'er, as well as the crime of insulting nobility, blaspheming the crimes of the King Palace and Saint King Lan Ling, is immediately executed. "
However, Xia Lei didn't even look at Azure Mountain as he said to Lan Ji'er, "You can go down first, or else I won't be able to let go of you."
"You ?" Although he knew what Xia Lei was trying to do, Lan Ji'er was still very worried.
"Get down." Xia Lei said.
"Yes." Lan Ji'er turned around and walked towards the door.
Two warriors from the Azure Mountain Family wanted to stop Lan Ji'er, but Lan Bing suddenly said, "Let her go. She is not guilty of a death sentence, I will interrogate her later on.
The two warriors understood tacitly and did not stop Lan Ji'er from leaving, but they still followed him. How could they, as men, not understand what Lan Bing meant? They would capture Lan Ji'er, and then send her to Lan Bing's room. Although Ahimis women could not use force, as long as they had medicine, they could still use it.
"Bring down this guy who is even dirtier than a pig! Burn him to death! " Lan Bing gave another order.
A few clan warriors then walked towards Xia Lei.
