I alone am the Honoured One!

Chapter 162: Ning's past?!

*tap* *tap* Ling Xin walked down the long stairs after exiting the Royal Palace "Where did Mr.Tian go?"

As she made her way down the stairs, a sense of confusion enveloped her until she laid eyes on Zhao Tian, who stood at the bottom waiting for her. "Mr. Tian," she called out, quickening her pace to approach him.

Zhao Tian glanced at her and smiled "Ling Xin."

As Ling Xin approached him, she asked "What happened, Mr.Tian, you suddenly left the hall?"

Zhao Tian shrugged "It's because the Sect Master of the Frozen Peak Sect gave me weird looks, so I had to leave."

Eh? Ling Xin couldn't help but chuckle "Well, Sec Master Xia Feng is always like that... haha. Since you are handsome, she must have been captivated by you."

As they continued their leisurely stroll through the stairs, Zhao Tian, his curiosity piqued, asked "That woman, Xia Feng. I remember seeing her during the Ancient Ruins expedition."

"I thought you were the only Sect Master at Heaven Astral Stage, but Xia Feng is also in the Heaven Astral Stage, right?"

Hearing this, Ling Xin spoke "It is true, but that doesn't mean that their Sect is weak. Frozen Peak Sect has a Sect Ancestor who is at the Monarch Astral Stage, so that will really make them one of the top Secs."

"Unlike us, who are fake and only won the top five position because of the competition," she spoke her tone growing sad.

*thud* Hearing some noises, Zhao Tian and Ling Xin turned their heads to the left and saw a carriage approaching them.

*creek* It abruptly stopped in front of Zhao Tian and a stunning woman with long blue hair and blue eyes got down from the carriage.

Seeing the gorgeous woman Ling Xin raised an eyebrow "Xia Feng..."

Xia Feng glanced at Zhao Tian and strolled toward him with a smile "Hi, handsome."

And as her eyes fell on Ling Xin, a slight frown creased her face. 'Is he with Ling Xin?'

Standing in front of him, Xia Feng spoke with a playful smile "Hey, are you free right now? if you want I can show you around my Sect and if you like it... you can join there."

Zhao Tian shook his head keeping his faint smile "Sorry, I have some other plans with Ling Xin."

Zhao Tian spoke and walked past her. Ling Xin also came out of her surprise and showed Xia Feng a smug smile before following Zhao Tian.

Xia Feng turned her eyes to Zhao Tian and frowned her eyebrows "Playing hard to get?"

...

Ling Xin giggled as they continued their walk back to the Sect "I didn't expect you to outright refuse her like that, I was surprised."

Smiling, Zhao Tian replied, "Well, I do have some things to talk about with you, Ling Xin."

Ling Xin looked at him and nodded "Tell me, Mr.Tian. I will try my best to help you."

Zhao Tian spoke, "I want to know more about the Queen, Ning Xue."

"Haha." Ling Xin let out a giggle upon hearing this "You just saw her today and you are already captivated by Her Majesty's beauty?"

-_- Eh? Zhao Tian was dumbfounded.

Controlling her chuckle, Ling Xin asked "What do you want to know about her, Mr.Tian?"

Zhao Tian squinted his eyes, pondering "Is she the only one remaining in the Royal family? What happened to others?"

"That's..." Ling Xin hesitated before a deep sigh left her lips

"Come with me, Mr.Tian."

...

*swish* *thud* Zhao Tian and Ling Xin touched down in the serene surroundings of the small park and there were no people in this park.

"Let's get in, Mr.Tian." Ling Xin entered first and Zhao Tian followed her into the park.

After a while of walking, they reached the center of the park where there were many graves, and their names were etched on it.

Zhao Tian glanced at every grave and saw the name 'Ning' common in all of them.

"Is this the previous generations of the Royal family?" Zhao Tian asked.

Ling Xin shook her head "No, Mr. Tian... these are not the ancestors. There are the people from the Royal family who died in one night."

H-Huh? Zhao Tian was startled "All of them... in one night?" there were like 20 graves in front of him.

Ling Xin nodded "The Queen's Father, Mother, Brother, Aunt, Cousins, and other relatives... everyone was killed in one night 35 years ago."

Zhao Tian narrowed his eyes and inquired "What happened 35 years ago?"

Ling Xin spoke "A Coup d'état. Some strong sects which existed at that time were allied together and planned an attack on the Royal Family."

"Under their assault, they almost killed everyone in the Royal Family in that one night."

Zhao Tian asked "If the Royal Family was killed, then who killed the Sect of Alliance later? Some other strong sects helped the Royal family?"

A sigh escaped Ling Xin's lips and she spoke "No. no other Sects could help at that time as the Alliance was very strong. But a miracle happened..."

"Suddenly out of nowhere, the enemy count decreased during the fight. Be it Heaven Astral Stage or Monarch Astral stage, everyone one of them is falling down with no resistance."

"That night, not only the Royal family, Zhenzhu also lost many top powerhouses. After the miracle, only Her Majesty Ning Xue survived the attack and was later crowned as the Queen."

Hearing the story from Ling Xin, Zhao Tian was quite confused "Do you know what that miracle is?"

Ling Xin shook her head "I heard people saying that they also don't know what happened that day. Everything happened so fast and the enemies were dying."

"Hm." Zhao Tin mused in his heart upon hearing this. a miracle that saved Ning Xue from death and stopped the coup.

'Interesting, I wonder if she will reveal what happened that day if I asked her.'

As he thought, his eyes subconsciously fell on one of the graves in the park and his eyes dilated in shock.

What the fuck?

...

At the meantime-

The woman finally reached a mountain's foot and looked up, her green eyes staring at the stairs leading to the top of the mountain.

"It's been a while... Lunar Blossom Pavillion,"
