Fengyue Continent Episode 25 Chapter 1 The Day of the Tour

In November of the year 538 of the Fast calendar, the weather in the imperial capital, Esnia, seemed to be affected by the repeated wars and killings. Instead of the usual crisp autumn air, it was damp and chilly, perfectly matching the political atmosphere of the time.

On November 19th, a rare period of good weather descended upon Esnia. At 8:15, the warm and gentle sunlight shone brightly on every corner of Esnia. The streets and alleys, freshly swept clean, were bright and spotless, bringing a good mood to every citizen of the capital.

"Could Princess Qian's ascension to the throne truly be the will of God?"

"It seems that Princess Qian's ascension to the throne is indeed in accordance with God's will."

Citizens who had already secured advantageous positions on both sides of the street couldn't help but murmur amongst themselves. Princess Qian's five-day coronation ceremony had reached its climax. Today, Princess Qian would appear on the main streets of Esnia to receive the cheers of the citizens before heading to the temple. Under the guidance of the High Priestess, she would offer sacrifices to the gods who protected the Fast Empire and to the empire's former emperors.

"It's almost time. We'll be leaving soon."

Ye Tianlong appeared precisely at the entrance to Princess Qian's palace, greeted by the newly appointed State Secretary, Yue Ru.

Upon seeing this stunningly beautiful dancer, Ye Tianlong's eyes lit up. Yue Ru's attire was completely different from before; she seemed like a completely different person. Her cascading hair was tied up at the back of her head, revealing her swan-like, snow-white neck. Her incomparably beautiful face was free of any makeup, except for a pair of small, exquisite, crystal-clear earrings adorned with crescent-shaped pearls . The faint, dreamlike shimmer of the pearls complemented her captivating, diamond-like eyes, making it impossible to look away.

However, what surprised Ye Tianlong was the well-fitting, meticulously tailored dress Yue Ru wore, a style completely different from the women's clothing of the Fast Empire. The navy blue single-breasted three-button blouse revealed a pure white silk shirt underneath through a deep V-neck. The large piping embroidered with gold thread added a touch of feminine charm and gentleness to the blouse. A beautiful cinch at the waist further accentuated Yue Ru's slender, willow-like waist and highlighted the full, shapely curves of her breasts.

Below, she wore a navy blue skirt that just reached her knees, revealing her shapely, rounded calves tightly encased in matching stockings. On her feet were a pair of navy blue pointed-toe high heels, showcasing the flawless curves of her ankles and insteps. The slender heels, a full three inches high, made Yue Ru's already slender figure appear even more elongated and alluring, further accentuating her captivatingly large breasts and hips.

"Lord Ye Tianlong, hello."

Yue Ru smiled elegantly at the man before her, whose eyes sparkled, seemingly unperturbed by his lecherous gaze.

"Hello..."

Ye Tianlong responded instinctively before slightly regaining his composure. Although surrounded by numerous beautiful and talented women and accustomed to seeing countless stunning beauties, Ye Tianlong still found himself unable to resist the allure of the woman before him.

"Good heavens! This woman's outfit is truly unbelievable, amazing!"

Muttering to himself, Ye Tianlong finally understood why Ruji was so celebrated throughout the continent, becoming a legendary beauty who could captivate all. He hadn't known her for long, yet he had already witnessed several different transformations in her. And each transformation was so alluring.

"Her Majesty the Empress is changing clothes and will be out soon."

In just two days, Yue Ru had completely settled into her role. She had become an indispensable figure by the Empress's side. Although many ministers in the court were extremely dissatisfied with such a woman serving as the State Secretary, they couldn't find any fault with Yue Ru for the time being.

"Tell me, how did you come up with this outfit?"

Ye Tianlong thought for a moment, then couldn't help but ask Yue Ru.

"Isn't this outfit beautiful?"

Yue Ru twirled gracefully before Ye Tianlong, her captivating charm making the lustful man's heart beat faster.

“This is a type of formal dress worn by ladies in the upper echelons of the British Empire. I found it simple, elegant, and very practical, so I modified it slightly to use as my work uniform.”

“Work uniform?”

Ye Tianlong’s mouth dropped open.

“Yes, it’s a work uniform, the kind of clothing worn at work.”

Yue Ru nodded firmly, explaining to Ye Tianlong.

“From now on, every secretary in our secretariat must wear this kind of work uniform.”

“Secretariat…” Ye

Tianlong’s mouth gaped even wider. After receiving Yue Ru’s confirmation again, Ye Tianlong finally cleared his head, making sure he hadn’t misheard.

“Are you going to establish a secretariat?”

After thinking it over carefully, Ye Tianlong still asked Yue Ru, somewhat unwilling to give up.

“Nonsense, as a high-ranking state secretary, of course I need a group of secretaries to serve me.”

Yue Ru looked at Ye Tianlong matter-of-factly, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied with his expression.

"Does Lord Ye Tianlong think that I, as the State Secretary, should handle everything personally?"

"But...but..."

Ye Tianlong's mind raced, but he couldn't find a response. Although he found Yue Ru's idea somewhat absurd, upon closer inspection, it made perfect sense; however, there was never such a precedent in the history of the Fast Empire.

"What are you talking about, looking so happy?"

A pretty, sweet voice came from inside the palace, and then a beautiful, graceful figure appeared in Ye Tianlong's sight.

Ye Tianlong's eyes immediately lit up again. From the original Princess Qian to the Empress Qian, she seemed to have truly grown up quite a bit, exuding a mature and sophisticated noble aura. The Empress Qian before him had a beautiful face meticulously made up, wore a crown inlaid with countless jewels, and a grand gown adorned with pearls; she was simply a beautiful celestial being who had stepped out of a dream.

"You are truly the most beautiful empress on the continent!"

Looking at the stunningly beautiful Empress Qian, Ye Tianlong couldn't help but exclaim in amazement. The girl he had single-handedly placed on the throne of Fast was no longer the spoiled princess he once knew.

Hearing Ye Tianlong's praise, Queen Qian and Yue Ru exchanged a smug smile.

"Beautiful, isn't it? This was prepared by Sister Yue Ru and me all night long; it had to be flawless."

Queen Qian's tone was full of confidence. Ye Tianlong couldn't help but be secretly amazed by Yue Ru's abilities. He couldn't guess what role this incomparably beautiful woman would play in the Palace of No Worries, but one thing he was very confident about was that he would control the situation.

Supported by the two twin sisters, Queen Qian slowly walked out of the palace, her grand gown's large train carefully supported by sixteen maids behind her. Ye Tianlong and Yue Ru walked behind them.

Watching Empress Qian's graceful and elegant gait, Ye Tianlong felt a surge of emotion. The unruly Princess Qian had finally grown up.

Surrounded by her maids, the new Empress Qian of the Fast Empire entered the magnificent court hall through the main gate of the inner palace. A group of royal guards, holding screens, shielded Empress Qian as she walked gracefully past the waiting officials, heading straight for the throne that symbolized imperial power.

Standing before the supreme throne, Empress Qian's body suddenly stiffened, and her expression became somewhat agitated. At this moment, Yue Ru slowly walked to her side and whispered a reminder in her ear.

Although it was such a solemn ceremony, the ministers of Fast couldn't help but feel a slight unease upon seeing Yue Ru's unusual attire. Some of the more perceptive ministers even immediately suspected that the new Secretary of State might be from the Anglo-Western Empire.

But the ministers had no time to think about anything else. The Empress Qian, standing before the throne, had completely regained her composure and was slowly turning to face her ministers.

The moment of homage had arrived.

Ye Tianlong and the civil and military officials together performed the grand kneeling ceremony before the Empress Qian standing before the throne. The Empress Qian completed each step of the ceremony flawlessly, her confidence and elegance leaving even the ministers who most opposed her ascension to the throne with nothing to criticize. Those ministers who supported Princess Qian's ascension were secretly relieved; no matter how infamous Princess Qian's past reputation for being willful was, at least the Empress Qian before them possessed the bearing of an emperor.

After the homage, the Empress Qian boarded her royal carriage and, accompanied by numerous guards and ministers, proceeded to the temple to receive the blessing of the High Priestess.

As the procession passed through the main streets of Esnia, thousands upon thousands of citizens lined both sides with immense excitement. Estonia hadn't seen such a grand event in a long time. The previous emperor's coronation was over sixty years ago, and for most citizens, it was merely a story told from others. Now, however, they could witness it firsthand.

What excited them even more was that this time, Empress Qian's coronation ceremony didn't involve closing the streets and dispersing crowds as with previous emperors. Apart from the city guards on either side, the citizens of Estonia could stand on both sides of the street where the procession passed to watch. This allowed the citizens of the imperial capital, Estonia, to experience the joy of a royal celebration up close, temporarily forgetting the recent war and bloodshed, and rekindling their memories of the glory of the Fast Empire.

※※※

Estonia's central avenue, one of the capital's main streets, was a clean and flat cobblestone road, wide enough to accommodate eight carriages side-by-side. Shops lined both sides, bustling with merchants, making it a very prosperous place.

Similarly, the central avenue, the street through which the Queen would pass, was already strewn with flowers, and the sides were lined with city guards who had formed a cordon early on. Behind the city guards, citizens had long since taken up advantageous positions, and even the rooftops facing the street were filled with Esnia citizens, all eager to witness the grand spectacle of the royal procession.

On the rooftops of the second row of buildings along the street, many citizens also stood. Although the view of the central avenue from here was somewhat distant, it was still visible to those with keen eyesight. However, compared to the sea of people in front, the number here was much smaller.

"How is it? Haven't they arrived yet?"

A somewhat anxious voice came from a room on the third floor of the fourth house in the second row. Although the wooden building had a large row of windows on the front, the curtains blocked the sunlight from entering.

In this dimly lit room stood four men, one tall and three short; the one speaking was a short man with a long, narrow face.

"Shut up, when did you become so impatient?"

the tall man said fiercely to his companions in a low voice. Although his appearance was unremarkable, the fierce glint in his eyes sent a chill down the spines of his three companions.

"Hey, Boss Jimu, we've been hiding in this room since yesterday afternoon, and we haven't even had a chance to pee. It's understandable that Third Brother is getting impatient, so please don't take it personally,"

a short, stocky man couldn't help but say.

"I know it's tough for everyone, but our target this time is just too terrifying. We can't afford to be careless or negligent, or we're all doomed."

As the leader, Jimu knew that his three companions were under extreme mental pressure, and he couldn't be too harsh on them at this moment.

"Since the day we received the mission, we've put in so much effort, but we haven't had a chance. The woman's guards are too tight; there must be a master strategist secretly behind the scenes,"

the short man who had been standing silently by the window finally spoke up.

“However, this time we’ve finally gotten a good opportunity. We can’t let this golden opportunity slip by.”

His words invigorated his three companions. Indeed, as assassins, they had never taken on such a significant mission before: to assassinate the new Empress Qian, the new ruler of the Fast Empire. If they succeeded, their reputation in the assassination world would soar, perhaps even becoming legends.

“Is that information reliable?”

The man who had first complained also refocused his attention on the upcoming mission.

“Will Empress Qian really show up here? Showing up in such a busy area is a major security taboo; her people should know that.”

“Absolutely true, you don’t need to doubt it at all. Because this intelligence was provided by me…”

A fifth voice suddenly rang out in the room of the four. The four assassins, who had worked together for many years, were naturally very familiar with each other’s voices and knew what actions they were about to take.

The tall man reacted the fastest; with a flick of his hands, three cold beams shot out like lightning, heading straight for the source of the voice. The other three assassins scattered to the three corners of the room, their figures shifting and rising to form a three-pronged attack on the direction from which the sound came.

There was no expected burst of magic, nor any sound of fighting.

The tall assassin's most prized killing weapon, the Lightning Bolt, vanished without a trace, like a stone thrown into the sea. Even his three companions didn't launch any further attacks, seemingly frozen in place.

This situation sent a chill down the tall assassin's spine. He knew exactly what kind of magical weapon the Lightning Bolt was. This willow-leaf-shaped throwing knife, incorporating both electric and lightning magic, was called the Lightning Bolt because it lacked a hilt and directional tail fin. It was extremely difficult to control upon launch, and because the electric and lightning magic attached to it was activated simultaneously upon launch, even if one could catch the Lightning Bolt, they would still be subjected to a magical burst of damage.

The tall assassin was capable of unleashing three Lightning Bolts in one go, which was quite an achievement, especially considering he also activated two types of magic on the Bolts simultaneously, causing them to explode instantly upon contact with external force. This meant the power of the three Lightning Bolts was enough to control a space within a ten-foot radius.

But now, a bizarre situation had arisen, as if nothing had happened, nothing had occurred, and the entire room was deathly silent.

With a lightning-fast thought and a whirlwind, the tall assassin instantly recognized his opponent standing at the doorway.

It was a man with a bloodless, expressionless face, and the light emanating from his eyes was enough to send chills down the spine and make anyone standing before him weak in the knees. But what terrified the tall assassin even more than the chilling aura emanating from him were the three almost motionless lightning bolts hovering in the air in front of the man.

The man had merely formed his right hand into a claw, making a grasping motion in mid-air, yet five visible white plumes of smoke extended from the tips of his powerful fingers, completely enveloping the lightning bolts. The once indestructible lightning bolts seemed to be fixed in mid-air by something invisible.

This was something no one a level below could do; in all his years as an assassin, the tall assassin had never seen anyone achieve such a feat. Perhaps only the legendary masters could accomplish this.

The tall assassin now fully understood the predicament he and his companions were in. Although there was only one uninvited guest in front of them, just that one person, based on the strength he displayed, was enough to send all four of them to the deepest hell. Therefore, the best thing to do now was to turn around and flee

immediately. But before the tall assassin could take what he thought was the right thing to do, the man at the opposite door had already lightly extended his claw, and with a sharp burst of energy, three lightning bolts turned around and flew back, their speed more than ten times faster than when the tall assassin launched them. However, their target was not their original owners, but the three short assassins.

Almost at the same time, the three dumbfounded short assassins didn't even have time to dodge before the lightning bolts accurately struck their vital points in the chest.

"Bang bang..."

In a series of dull thuds, the three short assassins didn't even utter a sound before they were turned into three charred corpses by the explosion of lightning magic.

"The power of the lightning bolts is indeed impressive, no wonder it can be ranked fifth in the hidden weapon list."

The uninvited guest said coldly as he slowly stepped in. At this moment, the sounds of a crowd could be heard from the distant streets, indicating that the Queen's convoy was about to arrive.
