Chapter 1491: Shattering of a Past Dream

The woman was dressed in lavish palace clothes The pearls and jade eht of the flames all around the beauty

She had a beautiful oval face, with skin as fair as snow Beneath her curved broas a pair of starry eyes that were incredibly chare and full, her waist was delicate, and her bottoranted her both the pure freshness of a young lady, and the , ine how such cole person

However, at that moment, her expression was filled orry She held her child close and said, “Don’t be scared, mother will protect you”

A resolute look appeared between her brows as she spoke However, even though her tone was serious, there was a natural charhest ofher sound both lovely and playful

All the soldiers who heard her felt as if they were suddenly infused with endless energy There was only a single thought on their minds, which was that they had to protect the Second Eet near her

Still, even though her subordinates were fighting for her while soaked in blood, the Second Empress didn’t look happy at all She knew just how th there was between her side and the opposition This would do nothing but buy her a bit more time

She absolutely hadn’t expected the Golden Cron Prince to go et his brothers in the Fiend King Court

Don’t tell me he isn’t scared of the Fiend Emperor’s rebuke once he comes out?

Fortunately, she had some trusted aides in the palace When they learned that the Golden Cron Prince had secretly summoned his subordinates, she had been worried that her son would be in danger and wanted to bring hi after she arrived, Director Lei Xin and Martial Guard General Wu Cheng had arrived with a large force of Golden Crow Guards

They kept saying they wanted to bring back the young prince with the hiree to that?

Both sides argued for a while The Second Empress was still the Fiend Emperor’s main wife, so at first, the Golden Crow Guards held soenerals the Golden Cron Prince had sent quickly cast aside their eht broke out, and things quickly got out of hand

Even though the Second Eather some trusted aides over the years, she had left her palace in a hurry to find her son and couldn't bring too many people with her As such, she had been left with only the guards around the youngest prince’sthem to endure bitterly If not because all those est prince ht have already been taken away

The Second Eet involved, because neither Director Lei Xin or Martial Guard General Wu Cheng did either Both sides wanted to keep that last bit of respect for each other After all, she was the empress of the Fiend races; neither man wanted to commit such an offense Meanwhile, the Second E were both fa Court If she faced them one on one, she could have a chance, but if they faced her together, and with all of their subordinates at that, she knew she wouldn’t have any chance

In that case, seeing as they weren’t willing to interfere, holding so many people back was already worth it The only hope she had was that the longer she held on, and theCourt were alerted, someone would come and save them

However, ould even come to save her at such a time It was clearly the Golden Cron Prince who had started this entire affair, and he was going to beco the new Fiend Ehts drifted to the old Fiend Emperor The two of them hadn’t shared many emotions over the years, but the Fiend Emperor’s presence had at least provided her with a sense of security Now that he had entered the secret dungeon, even her own subordinates dared to offend her

She hoped for the Fiend Eeon as quickly as possible That way, these people wouldn’t be able to cause her any hed bitterly soon after Even if the Fiend Emperor came, so what? The crown prince was the one who decided on this Would the Fiend Emperor really turn hostile toward the crown prince for my sake?

She knew that the old Fiend E the end of his lifespan Meanwhile, the crown prince was already destined to beco a part of the royal family for so ht If he could live long enough, the Fiend Emperor would definitely have stood at her side, and he would even have punished the crown prince severely But because he was nearing the end of his life, he would definitely stand with the crown prince

She felt helpless when she realized that It was a pity that guy Zu An hadn’t been able to assassinate the crown prince Otherwise, none of this would have happened Seeing as the crown prince had already e, that meant Zu An had already died inside

What a pity… He was a pretty interesting little guy More importantly, he was pretty handsoed fro its end Most of the guards were lying in puddles of blood, and most of her subordinates had already passed away The ones who remained had retreated to her side They were surrounded by Lei Xin and Wu Cheng’s Golden Crow Guard subordinates

Countless shi+ning blades that dripped with blood were ai off a mysterious sense of pressure

“Second Empress, please don’t trouble us any at the beautiful woman in front of him with a complicated expression Even in such a situation, she was still devastatingly beautiful! No wonder the late Fiend Emperor had become infatuated with her

The Second Empress moved a strand of hair from her forehead behind her ear She protected her child with her body, replying, “The only way you will get to ’s expressions changed Lei Xin asked, “Second Eo so far?”
