After Dongfang Qinyin left Xiang Yuxin's palace, her body was a little shaky, and the maid who accompanied her carefully supported her. When they walked to a palace, Dongfang Qinyin suddenly felt a warm and soft feeling in her heart, as if there was an invisible force attracting her. She used her inner strength to dispel the drunkenness in her body, stopped, and looked at the palace next to her.
She turned around and asked the eunuch who was leading the way: "Where is this?"
The eunuch replied respectfully: "Your Highness, this is the bedroom of the Imperial Master."
Dongfang Qinyin frowned and tried to recall the scene of today's court session, but she could not recall any memory related to the Imperial Master. She asked in confusion: "Is the Imperial Master? Did I see her in the court session today?"
The eunuch quickly explained, "Your Highness, the Imperial Master was not present today. Perhaps it was because there was an urgent matter that needed to be dealt with. Our Imperial Master is busy dealing with various government affairs every day, and many things are handled by her personally."
Despite this, the feeling of anxiety deep in Dongfang Qinyin's heart did not disappear. It felt like an important person in her life was in that palace. Just as she was about to go forward to find out, the eunuch beside her hurriedly stopped her and said anxiously: "Your Highness, you must not go in! The Imperial Master never allows anyone to enter her bedroom, not even the emperor!"
These words made Dongfang Qinyin's curiosity even stronger. Although she wanted to rush in and find out what was going on, this was still the territory of Da Chu after all. It was not appropriate for her to break in so blatantly. So she decided to wait until there was no one around before taking a look. Then she waved her hand and said, "I don't want to go in, I'm just a little drunk. Let's go." After that, she asked the maid to help her leave again.
At this time, in the inn, Xiao Ning was lying quietly on the bed, while Chu Qian hugged him tightly, stroking his face gently, her eyes full of heartache and worry.
"Ning'er, don't blame your mother for not letting you find that woman. She is really dangerous, very dangerous! The reason she sent you back before was definitely not for some unspeakable reason. She just didn't want you anymore. She must have other purposes in coming back to find you now. She is a woman who will never let herself suffer any loss!" Chu Qian's voice trembled slightly, as if she was recalling some terrible past.
After Xiao Ning heard Chu Qian's words, he suddenly felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart. He tried to calm himself down, then gently stroked Chu Qian's hand and said in a gentle voice: "Mother, I will listen to you."
Chu Qian was very happy to hear Xiao Ning obey her words so obediently. She couldn't help hugging her son tightly and started to act like a spoiled child. A happy smile bloomed on her face. She kissed and rubbed Xiao Ning's face and neck, as if she wanted to convey all her love to him.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Xiao Ning grabbed Chu Qian's hand and said seriously, "Mother, there is something I want to tell you."
Chu Qian asked with some confusion: "What's the matter?"
Xiao Ning took a deep breath and said slowly: "My source of life is in my mother's hands. I want to take it back."
Chu Qian felt some resistance when she heard Xiao Ning's request. That's right, Xiao Ning's life source is not in his body. After Xiao Ning's last incident in Shenxiao Sect, his life source has been in Chu Qian's hands. This is also to ensure that she can know Xiao Ning's life and death at any time. Now that Xiao Ning wants to take it back, she is a little embarrassed for a while.
“Ah, this…”
When Xiao Ning saw Chu Qian's hesitation, the smile on his face gradually disappeared. He then increased his strength, stepped forward and hugged her tightly, kissed Chu Qian hard on the face, and then buried his head deeply in her chest.
"Mother, please, give it back to me. Ning'er really needs it!"
Chu Qian was somewhat overwhelmed by Xiao Ning's gentle attack. She looked at her beloved son and her hesitation gradually dissipated. Finally, she gently helped Xiao Ning up.
"Ning'er, can you tell me why you want to get back the source of your life?"
"Mother, I want to practice! If the source of my life force stays in my body, I believe I can achieve twice the result with half the effort and grow faster. I want to become strong so that I can protect you!"
Hearing Xiao Ning's sincere words, Chu Qian's heart was instantly filled with warmth and moved. So, under Xiao Ning's clever persuasion, she finally put aside her concerns and decided to return Xiao Ning's source of life to him.
Chu Qian was sitting there, whispering a mysterious spell. Suddenly, a ball of blazing flame emerged from her chest, like a bright pearl, and slowly landed in her palm.
When Xiao Ning saw this scene, he felt an irresistible desire in his heart, and he was eager to take this source of life for himself. However, when Chu Qian looked at her son, a trace of panic and strangeness flashed in her eyes. Just as Xiao Ning was about to reach out to take the fire source, she quickly retracted her hand.
Seeing this, Xiao Ning felt his blood boiling and shouted excitedly, "Mother! Please, give it to me. I swear I will never do anything excessive!"
Chu Qian looked hesitant and said hesitantly: "But..."
Seeing that Chu Qian still refused to let go, Xiao Ning showed an unhappy expression on his face and said loudly: "Mom, if you don't agree, Ning'er will be angry!" After saying that, he turned his head away and no longer looked at Chu Qian.
Seeing that Xiao Ning was really angry, Chu Qian hurried forward to hug him, and said with concern: "Ning'er, don't be angry, mother will return it to you now." As she said that, she carefully handed the fire source to Xiao Ning.
