A series of footprints were left on the snow.
Xu Shixun turned to the side, his eyes fixed on Xie Lingqin, as if glued to her, unable to look away.
Bright, sparkling eyes, jade-like skin, a delicate nose and white teeth—everything about her is perfectly refined and elegant, with a captivating and alluring charm.
Such a beautiful person, as if stepping out of a painting, standing in the darkness of the night, amidst the vast snowfield, is like a unique ray of light, bringing warmth to those who are suddenly touched.
"Sister Lingqin, you look so beautiful, even more beautiful than before."
When Xu Shixun spoke words of praise, his eyes sparkled with tiny stars, yet his expression was utterly pure, without the slightest hint of disrespect.
Xie Lingqin remained silent, only glancing at him with slightly pursed lips and snow-white eyes.
"But, Sister Lingqin, you were so amazing just now, is it because your body is really healed?"
Xie Lingqin nodded, paused slightly, and then said, "I guess so, but my cough hasn't gotten better."
The Cloud Clan's spiritual arts are similar to the internal energy cultivated by ordinary people. Even if some are different from others, not everything can be perfectly good or beautiful.
However, the feeling of cleansing her body and rejuvenating her marrow did make her feel much more refreshed.
Although Xu Shixun didn't know much about the Yun Clan, he overheard a few words about them before falling off the cliff that day, and based on Yuwen Qingyue's performance just now, he knew that they must be very powerful.
However, all he cared about was whether Xie Lingqin was alright.
“However, Sister Lingqin, we should ask the Fifth Princess how they got in. If they can get here, then we can get out.”
"She won't tell you right away, and..."
Xie Lingqin thought of Li Qingyu from that time.
After her body was nourished by the Cloud Clan's unique techniques, she not only felt her mind was clear and her body was light, but she also clearly felt that Li Qingyu seemed to have become a different person.
He was enveloped in a menacing aura.
Moreover, how could someone whose martial arts were crippled and who was severely injured recover so quickly and completely? There must be something wrong with that.
It's possible that they destroyed the path they came from long ago.
Even if it wasn't destroyed, she didn't think it was safe.
Suddenly, Xie Lingqin raised her hand, and Xu Shixun saw Xie Lingqin's slender wrist, which was exposed, move. When he looked closer, he saw a rabbit lying in front of her.
"Wow...this...this..."
It was such a pleasant surprise, such an unexpected treat. For Xu Shixun, who had been starving for days and could only occasionally eat fruit, it was incredibly precious.
Xie Lingqin nodded slightly. "Here you go, the rabbit you promised."
"That's great... Sister Lingqin, you really keep your word."
"Cough cough..."
Xie Lingqin wanted to say something, but just as she was about to speak, she coughed.
It seems that he really does have symptoms of dementia.
Even though she is currently full, she still needs to find a doctor and take medication as soon as possible.
Furthermore, Xu Shixun had a bloody gash on his face, which must have been caused by Li Qingyu's sword energy during the fight.
"If we had learned more medical skills from Master Dong back then, we probably wouldn't be in such a terrible situation."
Xie Lingqin sighed softly.
Xu Shixun looked at her, then his eyes narrowed slightly, then widened, and then his eyelashes trembled slightly. He raised his hand and looked behind Xie Lingqin, "Sister Lingqin, look."
There, a person was walking towards them.
...
And in this snowy field, there was another figure, walking slowly, searching slowly.
He is Qi Rufeng.
Qi Rufeng was thrown into a snow pit by Yuwen An in a fit of anger that day.
He didn't die, but only suffered minor injuries, because he did it on purpose.
At this moment, he wore a cold smile, his eyes sharp, and he was extremely excited.
He could only act if people knew he was dead.
He secretly wrote to Zhuidamu that day to tell him about Xie Lingqin's news. He knew that with Zhuidamu's ambition, he would definitely not let go of such a good opportunity. Of course, he also knew that no matter whether this matter succeeded or not, there was almost no need to ask or investigate, the Crown Prince would immediately suspect him.
Therefore, only by putting oneself in a life-or-death situation can one act swiftly and without obstruction.
Xie Lingqin is not dead; this was told to him by someone sent by the Second Elder.
Fortunately, it was Yuwen An who came to kill him. He was easily agitated and angry, and lacked a certain keen insight. If someone else had come in person, he would have been worried.
...
The area is covered with thick snow.
Yuwen Qingyue could sense that she was about to die.
Her entire body was buried in the snow, growing colder and colder. The chill was so intense that it made her dizzy, and her lips trembled so badly that she could barely breathe.
Is it dawn? The surroundings seem to be completely white. Yuwen Qingyue opened her eyes with trembling hands, and all the light and shadow before her death appeared before her eyes.
And the blood-stained clothes in front of them finally attracted the snow wolves again.
“Ni…me…”
Yuwen Qingyue wanted to tell these snow wolves to get lost. She was a princess, the fifth princess of Beirong. She would not become their meal, she would not. However, she could feel her tongue was numb and she couldn't utter a complete sentence.
"Aww—"
A howl followed, and darkness enveloped the surroundings, with only the cool, metallic scent of blood emanating from the snow wolves that had surrounded her, eyeing her prey with predatory intent.
Yuwen Qingyue cried. Why did she have to die so tragically?
She regretted not killing Xie Lingqin immediately; if she had, she wouldn't have suffered such a fate.
Xie Lingqin, you bitch.
Suddenly, a sliver of light appeared before them.
A man walked almost against the light, and a compelling aura filled the air wherever he went, causing all the wolves that had surrounded him to disappear.
"What a great fate."
