Duo Mei despondently sat on a cushion, blankly staring at the air in front of her Betraying Suo Jia had been the ht, she and her sisters had sworn loyalty and devotion to the Fourth Prince the day they had first entered the acadeh Suo Jia had been so kind to them, they were trapped in the Fourth Prince’s plans What could they do?

In addition, the Fourth Prince could give the else they desired He’d even agreed to helping them maintain their appearances Suo Jia had already set up everything perfectly, all the Fourth Prince needed to do was to ed Phoenixes all had noble ranks, and had halos of glory above their heads The privileges within their grasp had also increased, along with their status However, the girls discovered that they not only weren’t happy, but instead felt so eh they hadn’t been able to see Suo Jia every day when they were together with him, more like a few days’ chance per year, they would spend these days together very richly, dynamically, happily But now, they suddenly discovered why they were at a loss They couldn’t see any goal ahead of them, nor any type of hope

Every day, they recalled hoell Suo Jia had treated theirls couldn’t help but feel miserable, as they all understood that they had bitten the hand that had fed theirls coment In reality, if Suo Jia had stood up and told the them aith him that day, they wouldn’t have kno to respond It was to the point where, if Suo Jia had ordered thehly likely that they would’ve obeyed Suo Jia’s commands

However, Suo Jia hadn’t said nor acted in such a way He had only grievously left alone He didn’t realized that in actuality, even though the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes had pledged loyalty and devotion to the Fourth Prince, they’d never be willing to betray Suo Jia either Originally…they had thought that Suo Jia and the Fourth Prince would be allies for the rest of their lives With the sudden fall-out that day, nobody could bla what to do The Fourth Prince was definitely superior; while the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes had hesitated, he’d taken the initiative to act, and Suo Jia had backed down

But the girls all knew that the reason Suo Jia had conceded was to one up and demanded for them to seize the Fourth Prince, ould they have been supposed to do? Exactly ere they supposed to have listened to? No

As she thought of Suo Jia’s various good points, Duo Mei grew more and more heart-broken She looked around at her co with tears After all, who in this world enjoyed betrayal?

Author’s Note:

In regards to the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes, I already said ages ago that they are part of the iuards, which had been set the ed loyalty and devotion to the iht Academy, which I’m sure doesn’t need any further explanation The only reason Suo Jia’s swindling away of these girls was successful was because it had been secretly coordinated by the Fourth Prince

Soelic Six-Winged Phoenixes’ betrayal, but that is an irrational claih it Why could they fake their deaths so easily, and why did nobody suspect the controlled by the Fourth Prince

The Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes’ loyalty towards the is towards Suo Jia Exactly whether it was betrayal or not still hasn’t been concluded Actually, from the moment they were discovered to be fire arriors, they were forced to vow devotion to the iht to stay loyal nothat a ruler could never let go of Did all this not count as foreshadowing?

Perhaps I buried it too deeply for everyone to see it But there’s no way it can be said that it wasn’t there If you re and closely read anything involving the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes You’ll discover that nothing I say is false

Moreover, the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes haven’t really betrayed Suo Jia at this stage They needed to swear loyalty to both the Fourth Prince and Suo Jia, so ere they supposed to do? In addition, you can’t forget that their families are actually still in the hands of the Fourth Prince

Holy Light Ee world, a naoal His objective is the Martial Way In addition, if he doesn’t experience so

Before writing this part, I reconsidered it h I know it’s depressing, it is absolutely necessary If he doesn’t experience wind and rain, hoill he see a rainbow? Nobody can just succeed in everything they do whenever they want Everything Suo Jia has done has a reason behind it This event hasa foundation for many et rid of the Fourth Prince right now While he can’t attack him head-on, he can assassinate him secretly However…since the Fourth Prince , Suo Jia has to do the same in return Thus, he just restrained himself, that’s all

Lastly, I would like to point out that the Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes aren’t actuallyroles The true uessed already: Nicole is one, and Roger is one, which is why these fire arriors aren’t described in much detail If everyone continues to read onwards, you’ll realize that the truetraits The Angelic Six-Winged Phoenixes didn’t really betray Suo Jia, they’ve never fought against him, nor have they ever disobeyed any of his coive up

Taffy’s Note:

While I, like , I understood where it had co these chapters It really does explain how Suo Jia was able to get so far without a hitch; such a thing was realistically impossible I had always questioned how the Empire would’ve just let the fire arriors “die” so easily as well

In a sense, like the author said, the fire arriors didn’t exactly betray Suo Jia either, which can clearly be seen by how they didn’t obey the Fourth Prince’s orders to harm/seize Suo Jia It was more of the fact that they were loyal to the Fourth Prince as well, and thus couldn’t betray either, stuck in a deadlock and at loss at what to do I honestly feel really bad for them, but what else can they do? As special existences, they had been forced to swear loyalty to the Fourth Prince since a young age, and their families are still in his hands

It’s also extre up until noas a prologue (a really long one), rowth This event marks the point where he really matures, and learns many valuable lessons It’s also necessary for the plot to move forwards; this event is the iht City/Empire and head for the Greater Trade Routes He had been hesitant this whole tih, and honestly, as of now, he still isn’t However, with this turn of events, he’s now forced to leave with lack of better choice And so the e; look forward to it xD The following chapter will be the start of the new arc, the main plot
