Inside the red silk tent of the Cold Palace, Shang Beiyu and Ji Fengyao sat facing each other, embracing.

He gently embraced her with his left hand, while a ball of condensed white energy swirled slightly in his right palm, soothing and nourishing Ji Fengyao's soul that had emerged from her body, slowly and gently pressing it back into her body.

The girl's body was incredibly hot, and she was restlessly teasing him.

Shang Beiyu's beautiful, ink-painted brows furrowed slightly, and two clusters of black flames appeared in the depths of her eyes, but he dared not touch her at this moment.

Her mind was unstable, and she was just a mortal woman from the mortal realm;

She couldn't withstand the impact of his powerful spiritual energy; it might cause her to be instantly destroyed.

He had already experienced the feeling of loss once, and now that he had finally felt his heart flutter again, he didn't want to lose her again if they were to be together.

When Ji Fengyao's soul was suppressed by two-thirds, Shang Beiyu's forehead was also covered in fine sweat.

"This body is still too weak," he sighed softly, struggling to persevere.

at this time.

The tall, thin man in black suddenly transmitted his voice: "Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince's men have arrived."

“Lure them away,” Shang Beiyu replied coldly.

But only a moment later, the tall, thin man in black spoke with a hint of surprise: "Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince has arrived, and he can actually walk!"

Shang Beiyu tightened his grip on Ji Fengyao's arm slightly.

The little bandit couldn't tell people apart at this moment, and she clung to him haphazardly, rubbing her little head back and forth against his face and neck.

The girl's unique gentleness and fragrance make her irresistible.

Using the strength of the little bandit clinging to him, Shang Beiyu temporarily released his hold on her and gently touched his face. A jet-black cloud of energy then obscured his handsome features, making it impossible to see his true appearance.

At this moment, the little bandit had torn herself up so badly that her clothes were disheveled and her face was flushed.

If outsiders saw me like this, they would definitely misunderstand.

Reaching out, Shang Beiyu pulled the bed curtains over the young female bandit, wrapped her in the light gauze curtains, and helped her up from the bed, preparing to flee the palace and find another place.

At this moment, the voice of the tall, thin man in black came again: "Your Majesty, something bad has happened. Shang Chuyue is leading a large group of people this way. There are people all around us now. Your Majesty should leave first, otherwise we will be exposed."

Shang Beiyu's right hand, which was still behind Ji Fengyao's head, had not been withdrawn. Her soul was still slightly ethereal. If she stopped now, and made any further mistakes, all her efforts might be in vain.

He clenched his left fist and had no choice but to remove the black mist covering his face again, muttering under his breath, "Useless! If you're going to do something like this, why didn't you find a safe place beforehand! You're more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, it was my oversight. Your Majesty, please hurry..."

"Stop the Ninth Prince for a quarter of an hour!"

"But what about Shang Chuyue and the others..."

"Go quickly!"

The tall, thin man in black couldn't understand why Shang Beiyu would risk being exposed rather than leave, but he dared not disobey Shang Beiyu's orders.

Shang Xiye didn't actually know where Ji Fengyao was hidden. He was just following a strange pull in his mind and instinctively heading in this direction.

Just as he noticed a palace ahead that seemed suspicious and was about to go and investigate, a tall, thin man in black jumped out and blocked his way.

Shang Xiye immediately perked up: He had found the right place!

"Release her." Shang Xiye's seemingly calm and deep voice contained boundless killing intent and anger.

"If you want to save her, we'll see if you have the ability," the man in black sneered.
