The first rain of spring was unexpected; just as the heavy rain was about to reach the ground, it turned into countless crystalline snowflakes, a sight that amazed everyone!
Looking at the view outside the window, Su Xian'er stood up and walked out of the room.
Seeing this, Xiao Cui hurriedly grabbed her coat and ran over to drape it over Su Xian'er's shoulders, saying, "Your Highness, be careful not to catch a cold!"
Su Xian'er looked up as the rain turned into snow, countless glistening droplets slowly falling from the sky, like tears of sorrow...
She raised her hand, and a light drop of blood fell into her palm. The lingering warmth of her palm turned it into a drop of water, like a tear falling into her palm. Its unusually cold temperature pierced her heart...
Suddenly, Su Xian'er asked Xiao Cui, "Xiao Cui, do you think... there is such a thing as unchanging true love in this world?" A strange coldness flashed in Su Xian'er's eyes.
"Well..." Xiao Cui's eyes darted around, "There should be, right?"
Su Xian'er smiled slightly, "You really are dishonest! How can there be such a thing as an unchanging true heart in this world?"
Even if it existed, it wouldn't belong to Su Xian'er!
Since she arrived in Chaoge, Di Xin has only come once, but Su Xian'er refused to let him in. Now, Di Xin is only indulging in wine and women every day and has no interest in her anymore.
Meanwhile, Su Xian'er had completely cut off contact with the outside world. She didn't know what the Su family's current situation was, whether Di Xin had stopped causing them any trouble, or where Gu Liyan had gone, or whether he had returned to the Xue Lai Inn...
Su Xian'er was in great pain because of her own impulsiveness and her own choices; she lost everything!
Looking at the gray sky, she had no idea how much longer this kind of life would continue. She was truly terrified, trapped in this cage forever, never to see the real sun again!

The unusual weather changes are not only a test of humanity, but also a test of the survival of the demon race.
"This is freezing! Lord Qing told us to come out and find food, but how could there possibly be any food in this cold weather! It's really asking the foxes to do the impossible!" A little fox named Xiao Er muttered unhappily.
"Hey, we can't just not look for a solution. If we don't find one soon, we'll really run out of food!" said another little fox named Xiao San, who had followed behind.
Both little foxes belong to the Red Fox clan. They are twin brothers and both have half-demon blood. They were taken in by Mu Qing because they were bullied by the Red Fox clan.
"I really don't understand. It's one thing for Lord Qing to be a vegetarian, but he also makes us eat vegetarian food with him! I've been craving meat for so long." The waiter pouted, his mouth watering.
"Just bear with it. Besides, haven't you noticed? Our cultivation improves very quickly when we eat vegetarian food, so I think listening to Lord Qing is the right thing to do!" Xiao San said with a relaxed attitude.
Just as the two little foxes were chatting and patrolling, they suddenly spotted a white fox lying in the snow not far ahead.
"Hey! Waiter, look, isn't that one of our own kind?"
Following Xiao San's gaze, they saw a white fox covered in blood buried deep in the snow. Its chest had been pierced by an arrow, and its life or death was unknown!
...
Mu Qing sat in the fox den, feeling somewhat uneasy.
Just then, Xiao San ran in. "Lord Qing, Xiao Er and I have found an injured white fox. What should we do?"
Mu Qing frowned, already annoyed, and asked impatiently, "You mean the injured white fox? Is that fox dead or not?"
The mistress thought for a moment and then said, "He's probably dying soon!"
"Then throw him out! There's not much food in the cave to begin with, there's no extra food to feed him!" Mu Qing waved her hand and said.
"Oh, alright." The mistress muttered to herself, "Sigh, such a rare and beautiful fox with demonic markings at the corners of its eyes, yet it's destined to die young!"
Mu Qing was startled and hurriedly called out to the mistress, "Wait! What did you just say?!"
The young woman was startled and hurriedly prostrated herself on the ground, trembling as she spoke, "Lord Qing, I, I meant that white fox... it just had a short life... I, I didn't mean you..."
"No, it's not that. You said he has a demonic mark at the corner of his eye, right?" Mu Qing suddenly stood up, went to Xiao San's side, and asked nervously.
"Yes, yes..." The mistress trembled slightly in fright.
Mu Qing hurriedly asked, "The demonic mark you saw, was it a peach blossom mark?"
"Huh? How did you know, Lady Qing?" Xiao San looked at Mu Qing in surprise.
Mu Qing trembled and rushed out: Brother Gu, please don't let anything happen to you!
The waiter dragged Gu Liyan up the mountain, then collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted. "That mistress is so slow! Why isn't she back yet after I asked her to call for help? I'm so tired!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a woman in a long red dress suddenly appeared before him, startling the waiter so much that he jumped up. Wasn't this his boss, Lady Mu Qing?
Why did she suddenly come down the mountain?
"Lord Qing..." The waiter hurriedly bowed.
Mu Qing ignored him and looked at Gu Liyan lying to the side, then trembled. "Where did you find him? How did he get injured? Tell me quickly!"
Xiao Er was startled by Mu Qing. "I, Xiao San and I found him in the woods near the gate of Chaoge City. He, he was lying on the ground covered in blood..."
Upon hearing this, Mu Qing looked distressed and bent down to pick up Gu Liyan, exclaiming, "Brother Gu!"
All that could be seen was the shocking wound on Gu Liyan's chest, still oozing blood, and his small body exuding endless coldness.
Xiao Er couldn't help but shiver. He had just brought Gu Liyan back, and if it weren't for the fact that the Red Fox clan had extremely high body temperatures, they would probably have been frozen solid by this white fox!
However, to Xiao Er's surprise, his boss, Mu Qing, actually knew this white fox.
Without saying a word, Mu Qing transferred her demonic energy to Gu Liyan, and in no time Gu Liyan's body temperature gradually returned to normal.
Gu Liyan slowly opened his eyes, and was somewhat surprised when he saw Mu Qing. Then he smiled gently, opened his mouth but did not say anything. Instead, he frowned in pain.
Mu Qing burst into tears. The Gu Liyan she knew was definitely the strongest being. He had even killed a Heavenly Venerable. Who else in this world could wound him so badly?!
Mu Qing wiped away her tears and said angrily, "Brother Gu, who hurt you like this? I'll avenge you!"
Gu Liyan gritted his teeth and shook his head, his voice weak and hoarse, "You can't beat him... Never mind..."
Mu Qing looked down and saw the arrow in Gu Liyan's chest. She shuddered. This arrow was the one Di Xin had with him when they first met. She immediately realized who had hurt Gu Liyan!
Mu Qing immediately flew into a rage and shouted, "It's him! It's Yin Xin, isn't it?!"
Gu Liyan's eyes flashed with helplessness. It seemed that Mu Qing knew Di Xin, but he really didn't want Mu Qing to get involved in this entanglement that had nothing to do with her...
Gu Liyan closed his eyes wearily. "Never mind, Mu Qing, I'm tired..."
Mu Qing gritted her teeth and said nothing. The most urgent thing now was to heal Gu Liyan's injuries.
