Chapter 239: Chapter 220: Delivering the Imperial Edict—Lu Xuan Is Ordered to Pacify the Ming State Uprising!

In the northern realm of the Great Xia Dynasty, amidst the vast, frigid lands, fierce winds carried snow sprays, sweeping across a world of white, resembling the untouched primordial chaos.

This place is sparsely populated, with only the undulating, snowy mountains appearing and disappearing amidst the storm.

At this moment, a woman in a light purple robe descended from the sky, her posture graceful, her robes fluttering like a purple lotus descending upon the world, untouched by the wind and snow.

The purple-robed woman’s black hair flowed like a waterfall, tied loosely with a white jade hairpin.

A few strands of hair fell across her forehead, lightly brushing against her jade-like white cheeks.

Though her beautiful eyes flowed with allure, even the icy world could not veil her breathtaking beauty.

Not long after, a woman in a red robe followed closely, slowly landing behind the purple-robed woman.

The red robe was vibrant and fiery, clashing starkly with the surrounding cold.

The red-robed woman’s eyebrows arched gracefully, her lips like cherry touched with vermilion, her phoenix eyes revealing a mysterious allure.

Compared to the purple-robed woman, the red-robed woman appeared more charming and vivid.

"Senior sister, that Profound Bird Guard keeps looking for you again!"

"What great matter could it be to still trouble you?"

The red-robed woman glanced at the purple-robed woman, folding her arms across her chest, inadvertently lifting them confidently!

The purple-robed woman held a purple crystal token in her hand.

She seemed unaffected by the red-robed woman’s complaints, as her expression remained calm, without stirring the slightest ripple.

She only lowered her gaze to look at the purple token in her hand, and then gently pressed it with her jade hand.

The purple token instantly radiated a dazzling purple glow, rippling outward like waves, dyeing the surrounding snow with a magnificent purple hue.

"Director, in the Southern Domain Nether State, a large number of World-Purifying White Lotus Nightmare Flowers have appeared in Feihua Prefecture."

"Old man and Mu Yun have been entangled by a fully-formed demon king serpent and the aberrant members of the Pure World White Lotus Sect."

"We are unable to extricate ourselves at the moment. Please, Director, lend your assistance!"

On the silent snowfield, these few aged voices echoed continuously.

"A fully-formed demon king?"

"Those aberrant members of the Pure World White Lotus Sect?"

"Hehehe!"

"Senior sister, it seems those useless White Lotus Sect people have obtained power from the outer lands once again!"

"This White Lotus Nightmare Flower clearly isn’t something from outside the Great Xia Dynasty."

The purple-robed woman only slightly frowned at the light-hearted mocking of the red-robed woman.

Then, the purple-robed woman lightly brushed the purple crystal token with her jade hand, causing the just-emerging purple glow to surge, like a round moon rising in the boundless snowy land.

The next moment, a vague figure appeared within the purple brilliance.

Once this figure emerged, the red-robed woman beside the purple-robed woman instantly restrained her playful expression and turned very solemn.

The red-robed woman clasped her hands together, dropping to one knee, and spoke respectfully.

"Subordinate Deputy Director Lin Yuexi of the Observatory greets Your Majesty!"

The purple-robed woman, however, did not react as extravagantly as Lin Yuexi, but instead, lightly opened her crimson lips to speak.

"Your Majesty, I have received a message from Deputy Director Li Chengxing. In the Southern Domain Nether State Feihua Prefecture, the White Lotus Nightmare Flower has appeared."

"I am currently in the northern realm and cannot personally go to the Southern Domain. I request Your Majesty to make a decision!"

The purple-robed woman stopped speaking here, her beautiful eyes looking at the vague shadow in mid-air.

Far away in Tian Du, deep within the palace, Xia Mingyue sat upon the dragon throne.

Before Xia Mingyue, a mysterious purple glow clearly displayed the images of Lin Yuexi and her companion.

"Hmm?"

"White Lotus Nightmare Flower?"

"The Southern Domain?"

Xia Mingyue uttered these two words softly, and suddenly, a name floated into her mind.

Lu Xuan!

This was, historically, the boldest man Xia Mingyue had ever met.

As an emperor, she issued a decree to meet this Lu Xuan.

Unexpectedly, this Lu Xuan made her wait for more than a whole month.

"So be it, let this Lu Xuan pacify Feihua Prefecture in the Southern Domain to offset this grave disrespect!"

Thinking of this, Xia Mingyue’s eyes flashed with a deep black light.

She casually said a few words, and the purple glow before her gradually faded away.

"Zi Yao, transmit my decree!"

"Order Deputy Director Lu Xuan of the Profound Bird Guard to immediately proceed to Ming State Feihua Prefecture to quell the chaos and eliminate any aberrant members of the Pure World White Lotus Sect!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey the decree!"

In the northern realm snowfield, beside the silent Lin Yuexi, upon seeing the shadow in the sky disappear, she immediately reverted to her original demeanor.

Upon hearing the name Lu Xuan, Lin Yuexi’s face displayed a strange expression.

After receiving this news last month, she was already greatly amazed.

Nonetheless, what she did not expect was.

Her Majesty regarded Lu Xuan so highly as to issue a decree appointing him to pacify the chaos in Feihua Prefecture.

"Senior sister Zi Yao, what kind of person is this Lu Xuan to make Her Majesty make such an exception, appointing him as the fourth Deputy Director of the Profound Bird Guard?"

Lin Yuexi patted the accumulated snow off her knee, her beautiful eyes curious and full of doubt.

Zi Yao’s eyes turned cold, without any indication of speaking.

She merely shook her head gently, the few strands of hair falling onto her cheeks swaying gently in the breeze.

Then, Zi Yao raised the purple crystal token again, the purple glow bursting forth like surging tides!

Fuzhou Qingxi Prefecture!
