Yuan Zhan cursed loudly. He had known for a long time that Jiang Qingcheng was not a good woman, but he didn't care, because he and Jiang Qingcheng had always been in a mutually beneficial relationship. Who knew that Jiang Qingcheng would dare to bring people to plot against him!
When he has the ability in the future, he will definitely skin Jiang Qingcheng and Jiang Jianxing alive!
…
Lan Mansion.
Shangguan Jianxing frowned while sleeping. He felt it for a moment and said in confusion, "Strange! Yuan Zhan is just a mortal. How could he escape my control?"
At this moment, the two runes he had used to control Yuan Zhan had returned to his body.
This meant that Yuan Zhan had definitely encountered something unexpected, which had caused a drastic change in his emotions and state of mind. However, this wasn't enough to allow Yuan Zhan to expel the rune instantly. There had to be a gradual process, unless... unless he had a special physique that allowed him to do this under such drastic emotional fluctuations...
Shangguan Jianxing sat up and originally wanted to go find Lan Zhi and tell her about this matter, but then he thought it would not be nice to disturb someone's sleep in the middle of the night.
Moreover, according to the location of Rune Return, Yuan Zhan is not in the capital at the moment.
Shangguan Jianxing made hand seals and quickly checked Yuan Zhan's experience in the past half hour through the two returning runes. He soon discovered that it was because of Prince Rui's death that Yuan Zhan's true nature was revealed.
"Since the most threatening person is dead, there's no need to worry. Yuan Zhan is just an ordinary person. No matter how special his physique is, he currently has no cultivation and poses no danger. The news of Prince Rui's death will surely spread. There's no need for me to go find Miss Lan Zhi to inform her."
…
…
cave.
When Lan Zhi and Zhu Tong arrived, they saw Prince Rui's body lying miserably on the ground with a shallow pit next to it. By observing the marks on the edge of the pit, they could tell that the pit was dug by someone with their bare hands. The other party must have wanted to bury Prince Rui, but for some reason gave up before digging half of it. Maybe they went out to find tools?
"Prince Rui...is he dead?"
Happiness came so suddenly that Lan Zhi felt like she was in a dream. She squatted down, not caring about the bad luck of the corpse, and looked up and down at the other person's body. She saw that Prince Rui's hands and face were covered with light gray fine lines, winding and twisting, like a piece of cracked porcelain. This was the characteristic of death after taking the "Jiexiang Pill". Such cracks would appear all over the body, but Prince Rui was wearing clothes. Lan Zhi probably thought that seeing such patterns on his face and hands was enough and did not intend to check his body.
Lan Zhi raised her hand and put Prince Rui's body into the storage space.
Zhu Tong's face was filled with confusion. "Such a lowly and ugly body should just be burned. Is there any special use for it?"
Lan Zhi replied, "I will use it to commemorate my deceased father."
"Okay." Zhu Tong nodded. She was born without parents and didn't know what it felt like to lose one. Seeing Lan Zhi's calm expression and no need for comfort, Zhu Tong didn't think much about it and just asked, "Can we go back to sleep now?"
Lan Zhi saw footprints on the ground and said, "Wait a little longer."
Ah Chi stood on her shoulders. Lan Zhi followed the footprints, turned a few corners, and walked about a hundred meters before finding that the footprints had disappeared.
At this time, Zhu Tong said: "I smelled the breath of a mortal, but this mortal's vitality is very weak and not worth paying attention to. The only puzzling thing is that this mortal's breath suddenly disappeared completely, and the power of the law of space remains here."
Lan Zhi's eyes flickered slightly as she said, "I want to go to Prince Rui's mansion."
Zhu Tong walked forward, reached out and grabbed Lan Zhi's hand, and said, "I'll take you there."
As soon as she finished speaking, two green clouds appeared under Zhu Tong's feet, lifting her body into the air. At this moment, she also changed her posture, with one hand around Lan Zhi's shoulders and the other hand on Lan Zhi's lower abdomen. Her movements were extremely intimate, and her body was also pressed against Lan Zhi.
Zhu Tong gently narrowed her lush and verdant eyes, showing that she was enjoying herself very much. Such a warm and comfortable human-shaped pillow could make her feel physically and mentally happy just by lying close to it.
Zhu Tong stepped on the clouds and moved forward in the air with Lan Zhi. The evening breeze brought a chill. Zhu Tong considerately cast a spell to protect her "human pillow" from the cold wind. She was still barefoot, her ankles were slender and beautiful, and her skin was as frosty as snow.
Lan Zhi has been sleeping alone since she was seven years old because her brothers are of the opposite sex and cannot sleep in the same room with her. The housekeeper, Uncle Chen, is also of the opposite sex and it is even more impossible for him to sleep with her. Therefore, Lan Zhi is not used to someone being so close to her, nor is she used to being hugged at night. However, Zhu Tong's body is fragrant and soft. Lan Zhi symbolically pushed her twice, and when she failed to move, she gave up resisting and let Zhu Tong hug her like this.
The bright moon hangs high in the night sky, casting its bright and clear light, and the stars are scattered in the sky. Looking down at the earth from mid-air, the scenery is quiet and beautiful, with continuous shadows of trees and neat and tidy streets and houses.
Zhu Tong's flying speed was relatively slow because she wanted to cuddle with the pillow for a while longer, so she started to make small talk: "Lan Zhi, have you ever flown like this before?"
Lan Zhi replied: "No."
There was nothing wrong with what she said. It was the first time she was held in someone's arms and flew in the sky.
Ah Chi stood obediently on Lan Zhi's shoulder, not daring to make any big movements for fear of attracting the attention of the humanoid beast.
Zhu Tong asked again: "Do you like flying like this?"
Lan Zhi felt that answering "I don't like it" would definitely make Zhu Tong sad, so she said, "I like it."
