The sound of horse hooves and the whistling of the wind were heard, and when the sun set, the two of them finally stopped beside a mountain stream.
Tian Wen dismounted quickly. Behind him, green mountains were faintly visible. In front of him, a waterfall hung far away. The sound of rushing water could be heard from afar. Under the waterfall, there seemed to be a cave entrance, flashing a bright white light.
He took her hand again, as naturally as if they had done it countless times before. Her green clothes fluttered, her hair flew, and the two of them rushed through the waterfall curtain and into the cave entrance.
The first thing that caught her eye was a wild flower, its delicate petals trembling, pink and tender, with water droplets glistening in them, she couldn't help but pick it and put it in her hair, Shui Yao smiled softly, "Is it beautiful?"
Tian Wen's eyes changed slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't open his mouth. Instead, he walked in silently.
The entrance of the cave is very small, only enough for two people to walk through. The further you go in, the more spacious it becomes. There are protruding stone walls on both sides of the wall, on which are placed night pearls. The white light makes the cave look like daytime, but no matter how it looks like, it lacks the comfortable feeling of bathing in the sun.
Gradually, voices were heard. When Shui Yao stepped on the land beneath her feet and looked at the endless wilderness, she opened her mouth in disbelief. No one would have thought that behind the cliffs, mountain streams and waterfalls there was such a beautiful wilderness.
"White lotus is the only plant that can survive in the sunless stream field for more than three months outside, which is why I like it!"
Tianwen spoke quietly, looking at this beautiful land. This was the paradise that the people of Louxi Kingdom had created for themselves over a hundred years. But no matter how hard they tried, some things were fake and could never become real!
"The prince is back!"
No one knew who shouted, and instantly millions of subjects emerged from everywhere. They were all dressed in white, with white hair, and even the babies wrapped in swaddling clothes had white fur without exception.
They knelt on the ground devoutly as if they were worshipping the gods in their hearts, and everyone had an earnest hope in his eyes.
It was that ardent hope that made Tianwen want to keep going and not look back...
When thousands and millions of people kneel on the ground and perform the most sacred and honorable etiquette towards you.
When the word "Prince" filled with ardent hope was shouted out in unison from everyone's mouth with infinite longing and infinite hope, I believe everyone would feel heavy-hearted!
There was no expression on her beautiful face. Her deep blue eyes looked over everyone's heads and towards the blue sky. Tian Wen waved his green sleeves lightly, and a clear and elegant voice rang out, "Stand up!"
The voice was not loud, but he used his internal strength to make sure that everyone who was kneeling could hear it, and the subjects kneeling on the ground stood up in unison.
Shui Yao stood side by side with him, her nose filled with the scent of sandalwood wafting in the wind. Her previous wariness and suspicion all disappeared because of the struggling look in the man's eyes and the longing eyes of the thousands of subjects in front of them who could not live in the sun.
"Oh!" Shui Yao let out a faint sigh, which was clearly heard by the man beside her.
He turned his head, put his hands behind his back, drooped his eyelids, and looked at Shui Yao, Yue Zhitingyuan quietly, "Seeing your subjects, can you still say those irresponsible words?
His voice was not loud, even calm. There was no blame or anger in it, but it was so quiet that it made people ponder.
Shuiyao stood on the high
Standing on the high altar, she felt a little heavy in her heart, but she still shook her head.
"They are your subjects, not mine. Before I was ten years old, I suffered from hunger and cold, and no one saved me. After I was ten years old, I earned my living with my own hands, and I don't owe anyone anything!
I am still me, not Shui'er, not someone from Louxi Country. I am just Lan Shuiyao, Lan Shuiyao from another world. You can't impose these on me!
These subjects are very pitiful, but it has nothing to do with me! They need to walk their own life and create their own life. No one is their savior. They can only save themselves! "
Tian Wen silently looked at Lan Shuiyao who had a calm expression. He knew that the time was not right and some things could not be forced, but no matter what, he believed that one day, Lan Shuiyao would stand by his side!
There is no distinction between day and night in Xitian. People use an hourglass to record time and artificially distinguish between day and night.
It was already night when they arrived at Xitian. The dinner was very exquisite. For Xitian, which had no sunshine, a bowl of rice and four vegetables was already an extremely luxurious life.
Although they did not know Shui Yao's identity, because Shui Yao was the first person brought into Xitian by the prince, they treated Shui Yao with the same respect.
Shui Yao didn't like staying here. She didn't do anything for these people, so she naturally couldn't ask for their food or accept their respect. If they wanted to kill someone and negotiate business with her, then she might feel more at ease!
"Stay one more night, you should feel the atmosphere here!" Tian Wen spoke softly, his blue eyes seemed calm, but there were ripples in them.
He hoped that Shuiyao would fall in love with this place and the people here, and maybe...
"No, I have important things to do!" Shui Yao said coldly. Everything here has nothing to do with her and she doesn't want to waste her time here.
She wanted to kill Liu Yirou and get the antidote. What's more, there was Yue Nanchen, who was seriously injured and had not yet recovered. If he was discovered by people in the palace, all her previous efforts would be in vain!
"Do you still want to kill Liu Yirou?" Tian Wen's voice suddenly became cold, and the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time burst out in an instant.
"You have seen Xitian and the people here, why can't you change your mind? Lan Shuiyao, is your heart really that cold?"
Still lazily leaning on the round chair, Shui Yao nodded gently, as if she was about to fall asleep, "Now you know! It's not too late, we will each go our own way from now on, and what responsibilities you have to bear has nothing to do with me.
It has nothing to do with you if I want to kill Liu Yirou. As long as you don't get in my way, we can barely be considered strangers. But if you insist on stopping me, then we are enemies!"
Tian Wen stared blankly at the lazy Lan Shuiyao, an uncontrollable deep anger rising from his heart. Is this the phoenix from another world that he has been waiting for for thirty years?
I thought her existence would bring hope to Louxi Country, but now, her existence will only make the subjects of Louxi Country more and more miserable and disappointed. She...
Shui Yao suddenly opened her eyes, and she actually felt the man's extremely strong murderous intent. This was really strange. How could the quiet and elegant Tian Wen, who was not worldly, actually have murderous intent one day?
And it is obvious that this strong murderous aura is
He came for her, and wanted to kill her because she didn't want to be with him?
Shui Yao raised her eyes warily, "You want to kill me?"
Tian Wen stared coldly at the woman's stunning face. A solemn aura emanated from his whole body, which continued to spread around him, almost suffocating Shui Yao.
Lan Shuiyao really admired herself. With just a few words, she turned the elegant fairy into an Asura!
Leng Ning's momentum was restrained in an instant. Tian Wen did not say anything, but just strode out. The moment the green figure disappeared at the door, all the doors and windows of the room closed instantly!
Shui Yao's heart moved, and she jumped up quickly, but in an instant, the originally clear walls and doors and windows became blurred. Shui Yao raised her eyes, and the tables, chairs and benches around her had disappeared. There was darkness all around, so deep that she could not feel the edge.
It's an illusion! When Shui Yao thought of the confusing fog surrounding Yiran Residence, she knew that this was another trick of Tianwen. He wanted to trap her here!
Outside the room, Tianwen looked through the window at Lan Shuiyao who was looking around in a daze.
This is the most powerful formation in his illusion. Although he knows that the blood of High Priest Shuiyi flows in Lan Shuiyao's body, he can only do his best. As long as the Miro Kingdom and Nanyue fight, as long as the two countries fight, he will let her go!
Yue Nanchen lay in bed waiting for Lan Shuiyao for a whole day and night! When dusk fell again, Yue Nanchen could no longer bear the hunger in his stomach and reluctantly sat up.
He opened the door a little and looked out the window vigilantly. The room was located in a very remote area, surrounded by the residences of eunuchs and palace maids. Usually, there were few guards walking around, and occasionally one or two eunuchs could be seen passing by.
