"It's not like we're going on a trip, what are you all doing following me? Stay in the city and wait for me."
Ye Qiu vanished from everyone's sight in a flash.
Wang Xiaoyu stomped her foot, feeling very depressed.
Lin Meng also pouted, looking very unhappy.
Seeing this, Yuan Feng cautiously asked, "Your Majesty and Consorts, why don't you find a hotel to stay in and wait for Emperor Wu's return?"
Imperial Concubine? qqxδnew
Wang Xiaoyu and Lin Meng exchanged a glance, and both saw joy in each other's eyes.
"Cough, I'm suddenly not sad anymore."
"Me too."
…
On the other side, Ye Qiu pursued the fleeing people from the Northern Dynasty at top speed.
Along the way, Ye Qiu noticed a large number of footprints in the snow.
Even with snow falling heavily, there was no time to cover it up.
Following the footprints, Ye Qiu sped swiftly into the frigid land.
Twenty minutes later, Ye Qiu arrived near the far north of the Frozen Sea. There, he saw corpses scattered all over the ground, their blood staining the earth red.
A figure as ethereal as a celestial being stood in the void, wielding a long sword, exuding extraordinary power.
Zhao Churan?
Ye Qiu was quite surprised.
Zhao Churan turned her gaze, landed slowly, and looked at Ye Qiu from afar with a complicated expression.
Ye Qiu approached, his face expressionless.
After looking around, Ye Qiu asked, "Did that Northern Emperor escape?"
"He had a teleportation talisman, so we didn't catch him; he got away."
Zhao Churan responded.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Ye Qiu looked towards the frigid northern sea, intending to continue the pursuit.
Zhao Churan understood Ye Qiu's thoughts and immediately said, "I advise you to give up this idea. Deep in the far north, a forbidden zone for life has been formed, with temperatures reaching absolute zero. Anything that enters there will be instantly frozen, including light and time."
"Is that so?" Ye Qiu said. "If that's the case, I'll hunt him down even more. He'll either be killed by me or forced into the forbidden area. In short, the leader of a rebellion must die."
"Then you go back, I'll go kill them for you."
Zhao Churan said softly.
"No need," Ye Qiu refused. "I'm already very grateful that you helped me kill these people, so there's no need to trouble you with the rest."
"Do you have to be so polite to me?" Zhao Churan gritted her teeth, feeling a sharp pain in her heart.
Ye Qiu sneered, "How should I put it? We have already drawn a line between ourselves. Our fate ended the moment you merged and awakened in Qianzhou."
You once said you were just using me, but I don't blame you, nor do I regret helping you integrate. I just need you to minimize your presence in my life. Let's each go our own way and not bother each other. Can you do that?
"Ye Qiu, you..."
"Can you do it?" Ye Qiu interrupted Zhao Churan.
Zhao Churan turned around, her eyes reddening, her hands clenched tightly, and after a long while she finally uttered a single word: "Yes."
"Okay, goodbye, I hope we never meet again."
Ye Qiu entered the frigid northern sea and quickly disappeared.
Zhao Churan looked at the vast, cold sea and sat down on the ground, feeling somewhat helpless.
"Palace Master, are you alright?"
A young Taoist boy appeared from a distance and quickly approached.
Zhao Churan immediately stood up, quickly regaining her composure; "I'm fine."
"Palace Master, I can sense the feelings between you and Young Master Ye. You clearly love each other, so why do you have to do this?"
"Who said we loved each other? He has already let me go, and doesn't even bother to ask me how I ended up here."
"Of course, I don't love him either. I came here to help him, and that settles everything with him. Don't mention this matter again." Zhao Churan shouted.
The young Taoist priest nodded repeatedly, but looked completely bewildered.
He still can't understand why the Palace Master deliberately distanced himself from Ye Qiu; he can't figure out the reason at all.
But the young Taoist was certain that there was a shocking secret hidden within.
Because a peerless being like the Palace Master would never quarrel with Ye Qiu over such a trivial matter.
