REBIRTH OF THE QUEEN

Her eyes stared blankly at the lifeless body that lay in front of her eyes.

He\'s Poisoned.

​​

Fu Xie Lan was rooted to the spot, she never thought before that Qian Cheng would die of poisoning.

But since when? She had been with the middle-aged man since earlier, and Qian Cheng still looked fine as if nothing had happened to him.

Why the sudden poisoning?

Fu Xie Lan judged that the poison in Qian Cheng\'s body was no ordinary poison, moreover, it could kill him in an instant.

A few minutes later, the foam that came out of Qian Cheng\'s mouth stopped. Fu Xie Lan used the mana in her body to slightly clean the foam and examined the middle-aged man\'s mouth.

The dim light couldn\'t help her see very clearly at all, so there was no other reason for her than to make light from the mana accumulated in her hands.

At the same time, the lighting in the room increased, Qian Cheng\'s face began to turn blue, the veins on his face protruding so clearly. His mouth opened wide revealing everything in it.

Approaching Qian Cheng\'s corpse, Fu Xie Lan then carefully inspected the damage to the middle-aged man\'s body.

A faint frown was visible on the girl\'s forehead, she couldn\'t find the cause of something that had been bugging her mind since earlier. She then turned to Qian Cheng\'s upper body.

Her movement stopped when her eyes saw the bruises that had started to swell on the middle-aged man\'s cheek.

With careful movements, Fu Xie Lan used the plant tendrils she had created to examine the man\'s mouth, precisely on the inside of the cheek.

Opening it wide, and there was a black liquid still flowing from his left cheek, the girl then examined it once more.

The black liquid coming from stitch in deep there.

Immediately she moved her hand away, activating the ability of her eyes to quickly see her surroundings. But did not find anything suspicious at all.

It was a type of pill containing a poison that was embedded in one\'s body. It was the same as the poison she found in the bodies of the three people from different races who visited the phoenix academy to take the pury test a few days ago.

\'Why would something like this exist in the human territory?\'

\'Was this the work of the same person?\'

\'What is the purpose?\'

Various kinds of questions appeared in Fu Xie Lan\'s mind.

If this was the work of the same person, it would mean that the events that happened at the phoenix academy had something to do with herself.

The girl then stood up, slowly stepping past Qian Cheng\'s corpse, towards the table where Hao was. Carried the creature in her arms after stuffing the chain and key into her cosmic bag.

\'Is your energy very drained? Until your life is in danger you don\'t even realize it,\' Fu Xie Lan thought stroking Hao\'s fur.

\'Forgive me. I didn\'t know that my previous request was too risky for you,\' she added, then stepped away from there.

She immediately got out of the room. And the two people who are standing in front of the room were confused after seeing her.

"Y-you..."

"Why so surprised?" said Fu Xie Lan.

"Why did you get out of there?" Qiao asked immediately.

"Is there a rule about that?"

Suddenly the sound of footsteps came from outside, managed to distract the three people.

Three people appear, they were Ju Xian, Wan Lie, and Xue Ning who seemed to have changed her dresses.

"I followed you out of concern, Xie Lan," Wan Lie said.

"And they have recovered," he added.

"What\'s with this situation?" asked Xue Ning when she found the two members of Qian Cheng with Fu Xie Lan in front of a room.

Lim and Qiao looked surprised. The two\'s eyes immediately scanned the shard of the arrow in Lim\'s hand with the arrow slung over Xue Ning\'s shoulder.

"You!!"

"You\'re the one who stole our prey," Qiao immediately approaching the girl.

"Now I can understand why you guys were able to get so much prey, it turns out to be just looted."

One of Fu Xie Lan\'s eyebrows rose.

Did she miss something again?

"Who are the stole?" Xue Ning protested.

"This... this arrow is yours, right?" asked Lim showing the arrow in his hand.

All pairs of eyes saw the object in the man\'s hand. Those arrows did belong to Xue Ning, but how could that be? Or is it just a similar arrow?

Seeing that thing, Xue Ning\'s mind worked quickly. Remembering all the events that happened to her in the forest.

And a second later, the girl burst into laughter making everyone even more confused by her behavior.

"Are you trying to become crazy to get away from us?!" said Qiao sarcastically.

"No, no. It\'s not like that," Xue Ning replied, ending her laughter.

"Did you pull out the arrows one by one from the corpse of that perverted man? hahaha," she asked and then laughed again.

"I just didn\'t think that the arrow would make you accuse me of being a thief," Xue Ning said back.

"Ehheem…" Xue Ning tried to normalize her expression again

"So that\'s your trap?"

"I\'m very grateful because thanks to that trap I was able to escape an unpleasant incident," Xue Ning said.

Qiao and Lim couldn\'t digest the girl\'s words at all.

"What do you mean, brat? Don\'t beat around the bush," Qiao said annoyed.

"Hmm. I just want to say that I didn\'t steal your prey at all, after all, I was the one who fell into your trap when I ran to avoid the two men you found dead near the trap," Xue Ning explained.

"Nonsense!!"

"What kind of excuse is that?!"

"I\'ll report it to the chairman," said Qiao turning to look at Fu Xie Lan.

"You want to see Qian Cheng?" asked Fu Xie Lan with one eyebrow raised.

"Who else?! Is there another chairman in this house besides Qian Cheng? You idiot," Qiao sarcastically took a step forward.

"Are you sure you want to see him?" asked Fu Xie Lan with a smile behind her mask.

"Move!!"

Xie Lan immediately gave the two people access to enter the room where Qian Cheng was.

Qiao who saw Fu Xie Lan slightly stepped aside only snorted. Slowly his hand moved to grip the doorknob and quickly opened it.

Immediately the stench coming from inside the room made the two of them stop for a moment. But only a few seconds and they were back walking.

"Come on!" said Fu Xie Lan immediately taking a step away from there.

"B-but Xie Lan, they-..."

"Shut up and listen," Fu Xie Lan interrupted.

Seconds later, "CHAIRMAAANNNNNN!!" The screams coming from the room stopped Wan Lie\'s steps, as did the others.
