Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 746 - Seeing Through

"What is it?" The King asked indifferently.

Zhou Huaijin passed the box to De Fu, who gave it to the King. The King almost passed out at the sight of what was inside. He asked De Fu to close the lid directly.

"This is the gallbladder of the giant serpent. It is my present to you, father," Zhou Huaijin said calmly.

"De Fu, just put it away," the King said uneasily, then he got up and decided to leave for the court.

It was already a very excellent achievement if someone got tigers in the Spring Hunt in the past few years. Tigers mostly lived in the deep woods and did not show up easily. Therefore, they were hard to get. So it was totally fine when they were shot and presented to the King, but things were different now.

This prey was a giant serpent with a length of more than seven or eight meters, something that had not been seen in hundreds of years! Also, it was not living deep in the woods of the mountains. The range of Spring Hunt was not that big after all.

So if such a giant serpent was seen, then there might be other giant serpents, or even bigger ones moving about.

That was what made the King panic. Therefore, he decided to leave this place, fearing that some unexpected danger would occur.

The King left for the court in a hurry, so the Spring Hunt ended in a hurry as well.

Zhou Huailing did not even catch up with the King's chariot. He went back to Lord Ling's Mansion alone.

As for the giant serpent, Zhou Huaijin and General Liu as well as other military staff were dealing with it.

***

On the way back to Lord Ling's Mansion…

Zhou Huailing's expression sank deeply.

He was displeased. He was very displeased.

The Spring Hunt was the most important event in the Saint Divine Land.

He had thought about shining brightly in the Spring Hunt so as to prove that he was the right side for the ministers to take. However, he had not expected that so many accidents would occur.

He got really angry when he remembered how he not only failed to stand out, but also got humiliated.

He glared at Gu Ruxue in the wagon and snapped coldly. "Why are you messing around in Spring Hunt!? Why did you force Gu Chaoyan to bring out her riding tool!? The phoenix did not have to show up today! Now everyone has seen the bird, and you may lose your position as the Phoenix Girl!

"And you always mess around outside whilst achieving nothing at Lord Huai's Mansion. You are worse than the previous Princess Consort!" Zhou Huailing snapped.

He was truly pissed today. Nothing that happened today was making him stand out. So he blamed everything upon Gu Ruxue.

When hearing that she was worse than the previous Princess Consort, Gu Ruxue got even more annoyed.

They had been divorced for so long, but he was still thinking about the old Princess Consort and he was even comparing them! That was not a woman deserving enough for a comparison. She was the Phoenix Girl after all!

Gu Ruxue countered angrily. "It was my fault to have irritated Gu Chaoyan, but just look at yourself! You claim to be better than Lord Huai, but what have you got and what has he got? It is you who messed things up, not me!

"I am the Phoenix Girl no matter what. Even if I lost to Gu Chaoyan today, I am still the Phoenix Girl. However, you are different, you and Lord Huai are just lords, and you have lost the game against him!" Gu Ruxue said angrily.

Gu Ruxue had changed. She had been used to being the Phoenix Girl and was pretty aware of what this title could do for her. So she had seen through many things.

Zhou Huailing was startled for a moment before turning to Gu Ruxue with fierceness in his eyes.
