Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress

Yu Wuhen almost lost his grip of Chu Qingchuan when he was hit in the arm. However, he forced himself to endure the pain and hold her tighter.

A second later, over ten swords rushed towards Yu Wuhen all at once.

Chu Qingchuan looked at the swarm of swords with her big eyes, then at the same emotionless Yu Wuhen who seemed like not even thunder could shake him.

Yu Wuhen suddenly took off, dodging those swords in the nick of time.

However, he couldn’t find a suitable place to land because there were more servants than before on the ground.

He averted his gaze and realized that four of his men were already defeated in battle.

Yu Wuhen tightly clenched his fists and flew in one direction, using his instincts.

A second later, dozens of swords rushed towards him.

Yu Wuhen coughed up a big mouthful of blood. He wanted to take off again, but he realized that his body wasn’t listening to him.

In this moment of life or death, his body had turned numb and motionless from excessive blood loss.

Chu Qingchuan looked back and saw dozens of servants about to catch up to them. Then, she glanced at Yu Wuhen who looked light-headed and felt that his grip around her had loosened up quite a lot.

She clenched her fists and suddenly made a decision. She forcefully broke away from Yu Wuhen who had already turned numb.

With Yu Wuhen’s large robe around her, she turned around and stood in front of Yu Wuhen. She shut her eyes and faced death head on.

“No! Chuchu! Quick, move aside!” Yu Wuhen saw Chu Qingchuan fall in front of him and his eyes turned red with urgency.

The next second, he felt a sudden attack on his core and he coughed up a big mouthful of blood. His body felt even more immovable than before.

Chu Qingchuan smiled faintly, then shut her seductive eyes. She calmly faced the dozens of swords that rushed at her.

So, mutual lovers aren’t afraid of dying together, huh? Wuxia, I love you. I’m willing to take these swords for you.

At that very moment, dozens of swords were just about to hit Chu Qingchuan.

In this life or death situation, a man dressed in purple formalwear suddenly rushed in. The man was tall and had a handsome face. His eyes had some resemblance to Chu Qingchuan. It was obvious that it was Chu Qingchuan’s brother, Chu Yitian.

Over a hundred soldiers followed Chu Yitian into the manor and started fighting with the Xu family servants.

Taking flight, Chu Yitian took seconds to defeat the servants in front of Chu Qingchuan.

Chu Qingchuan didn’t feel pain for a long time, and so she opened her eyes out of curiosity. To her surprise, she saw her own royal brother Chu Yitian. “Brother? Is that you?” She cried in astonishment, as her eyes instantly lit up.

Chu Yitian had a glum look on his face. With his index finger, he nudged Chu Qingchuan hard on the forehead. “You really can’t go anywhere without making people worry about you. From now on, I won’t allow you to leave the palace,” he said through gritted teeth.

Although Chu Qingchuan knew that Chu Yitian was really mad right now, she laughed out loud. You’re really something! This is amazing! I don’t have to be stabbed to death anymore.

She quickly turned around, and saw Yu Wuhen clutch his chest with a dazed look in his eyes as if he was going to faint at any time.

Chu Qingchuan felt her heartache, as she swiftly caught Yu Wuhen from falling.

Chu Yitian’s eyes instantly widened. He reached his trembling finger out and pointed at Yu Wuhen. “Qingchuan, y-… you…”

Chu Qingchuan flashed a forceful smile at Chu Yitian, and said, “Royal brother, I hope you can give Yuxia and me your blessing.”

“Disgraceful! How could you randomly marry a stranger?” Chu Yitian got immediately angry. This man is masked. I can tell with just one look that he’s no good, and yet Qingchuan was about to take a sword for him. How outrageous!

Chu Qingchuan knew Chu Yitian was going to get mad. She could no longer hold the smile on her face and ignored the furious Chu Yitian to support Yu Wuhen up from falling.

Chu Yitian clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, then spun around. He looked as if he was waiting to see them fail.

Soon enough, the Xu family was subdued by the soldiers.

“Punish them all on the spot! Don’t leave out a single one!” Ordered Chu Yitian in a chilling voice.

The old granny from the Xu family was left instantly stunned. “W-… who are you? Does the law not exist? How could you assassinate hundreds of people of my house so casually?”
