As soon as he jumped over the high wall in the backyard, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.

If she hadn't had some basic martial arts experience and had not lost some of the force when she fell, the only result of landing on her face would have been a swollen body like a pig's head the next day.

Can.

At this moment, she was lying on the ground, not only did she not have any strength in her body, but the key point was that she didn't know what was going on.

Why does my whole body feel paralyzed? I don't have the strength to move at all?

Could it be that the original owner had some terminal illness?

Oh my god, is it okay to be completely paralyzed at such a young age?

The ground was extremely cold at night, and she lay there with her face pressed against the ground in a miserable state.

Just thinking about it makes me feel dead.

If we keep lying there until dawn, if anyone finds us, they will definitely think we have stumbled upon a crime scene.

No! I have to get up.

Otherwise, if the red moon appears later, wouldn’t I miss it?

Thinking of this, she no longer had the leisure to continue lying down.

My whole body was tense, and I exerted force, and everything went smoothly the next second.

“Where there is a will, there is a way.” He first looked at his hands with joy, and found that everything was normal, then he brushed the dust off his body.

But when she thought about how suddenly this illness came and whether it would have any impact in the future, she became unhappy again.

I thought it would be safer to see a doctor during the day, and then I will go to guard the teleportation point tonight.

After making up her mind, she immediately used her Qing Kung Fu to head towards Zong Xu's house.

After being convicted by the Council of Elders, Zong Xu is now a prisoner.

She didn't pay much attention to what happened afterwards. In short, the crime of intentionally killing the future Son of God was a serious one. Even if he survived, he would probably spend the rest of his life in prison.

In fact, sometimes I think about it, Ah Heng in the first door also has a younger brother. Although they are both younger brothers, the other one is honest and kind, and he saves his brother many times.

This guy is the better. He is scheming everywhere and wishes his brother to die.

There are indeed differences between people.

The toes tapped the roof again.

Su Changzhao's light Kung Fu was unrivaled in the world. She was seen rising and falling among the rooms with smooth and flowing movements.

Even the night watchman, who was used to traveling through the night, did not notice that someone had just flown over his head.

As we were about to reach Zong Xu's residence, the familiar feeling of numbness appeared again.

"Huh?"

Her mind went blank, she lost balance and fell headfirst.

Fortunately, there was a cart of straw below. Although it was a bit uncomfortable with my face buried in it, it was a blessing in disguise.

If I had fallen headfirst from that height, I would probably have died.

But her face was buried in the straw, and the position was not very good, so she began to feel suffocated.

! !

No way, no way, am I going to suffocate?

If I die like this, it would be too unfair, right? The first person to be suffocated by a pile of straw... If possible, I want to die more honorably and more meaningfully...

She was still thinking about all these things the second before, and when her consciousness gradually became unclear, the last thought that remained was that she didn't want to die yet.

She had to wait until the red moon, then teleport back and take Ah Heng out of Phoenix Realm...

Just as her consciousness was blurring out, she vaguely heard footsteps and panting.

"Anyone?"

Then she felt someone climbing up the haystack and seemed to be digging at her.

She was surprised, happy and anxious, but the little consciousness she had left didn't give her any chance to hold on to the end.

She had no idea what happened next and fainted...

.

When I woke up again, it was already daybreak.

"Are you awake?"

There is a person in front of the bed.

His pupils were almost focused before Su Changzhao recognized the other person.

"Qi... Lan?"

The plain-clothed young man showed joy on his face, "Great, you finally woke up."

Su Changzhao half sat up and held his forehead with his hand.

Although she had just taken a nap, she felt as if she had slept for a very long time, and her whole body felt stiff and numb as if she had been lying down for too long.

"What are you talking about? That night you sleepwalked and ran out of the mansion. It was Master Jiuchen who found you and went out alone to find you..."

“…”

"After returning, the master went crazy. He woke up everyone in the mansion to look after you, and even invited a witch doctor to treat you overnight. Fortunately, you have a good physical foundation, and Master Jiuchen rescued you in time, so you saved your life. Now that you are awake, you will see the master later, and you must thank him well."

"...Yeah." Su Changzhao nodded hesitantly. After listening for a long time, she roughly understood some of it.

Jiuchen brought her back last night.

But it was so late, how could Jiuchen go out at that time? And how could he save me at the critical moment and bring me back?

Su Changzhao pressed her swollen forehead and said, "Where is that Jiu...that adult now?" She looked around and found that this was neither her room nor Jiuchen's room.

"Where is this?" she added.

Qi Lan smiled and said, "This is the Holy Palace. Master Jiuchen should be in the Pilgrimage Hall right now, but don't worry, he will come to see you in a while."

Su Changzhao didn't pay much attention to the certainty in Qi Lan's tone, nor did she think too much about it.

"…Wait, the Holy Womb? The Pilgrimage Temple?"

Looking at Su Changzhao's shocked expression, Qi Lan seemed to have known that she would have this reaction, and continued to explain with a smile:

"That's right. During the time you were recovering from your injuries and unconscious, you missed the succession ceremony. We had already moved from Lingzi Palace to Shengzi Palace. You really have to thank the Lord. The Holy Son never keeps useless people around him. After learning about your situation, Lord Jiuchen went against all odds to save you."

“…………”

.

For Su Changzhao, what Qi Lan said was so shocking that she didn't know what to say.

Because she slept for so many days?

But these are far less important than Red Moon’s affairs.

She remembered that when she grabbed Qi Lan and asked him whether a red moon had appeared during the time when she was unconscious, Qi Lan looked at her as if he was looking at a mentally ill person.

Fortunately, Qi Lan confirmed again and again that the red moon had not appeared, and Su Changzhao finally felt relieved.

But her reaction seemed to have frightened Qi Lan. After answering, Qi Lan left on the pretext of preparing a meal for her.

However, Su Changzhao saw that he was running away.

After a while, a servant brought the meal.

Perhaps it was because he hadn't eaten properly for a long time, Su Changzhao's appetite was now up and he began to eat voraciously.

Just as she was about to leave after eating and drinking, two servants stopped her and said:

"Miss Su, please stay."

Su Changzhao looked at them suspiciously, "What do you mean? Can't I go out?"

Another servant said, "The Holy Son has ordered that Miss Su has not fully recovered yet and needs to rest."

Su Changzhao was not stupid, so how could he not hear that the other party wanted to stop her from leaving?

"I'm fine, get out of the way!"

"If Miss Su insists, don't blame us for being rude."

One of the servants had already shown his stance while speaking, and the other followed suit.

Su Changzhao immediately realized that both of them were skilled in martial arts, with the same style and neither of them was weak.

What are you doing?

Why is she under house arrest?

Su Changzhao couldn't figure it out, but it wasn't so easy to trap her.

Just as her eyes turned cold and she was about to take action——

"stop!"

A familiar warm voice came from the door.

Su Changzhao looked in the direction of the voice and saw a gentle and handsome man dressed in the Holy Son's robe walking towards him.

The snow-white robe billowed, and light danced on the expensive gold ornaments.

The two servants immediately stepped aside respectfully.

When Jiuchen came to Su Changzhao, they retreated at Jiuchen's silent wave of his hand.

Su Changzhao and Jiuchen looked at each other.

Su Changzhao only felt that the man in front of him was surrounded by a layer of light, sacred and inviolable.

Bang!

My heart beat faster.

What's going on? I haven't seen him for just a few days, but he seems... handsome again?

The next second, Su Changzhao realized that the other party was staring at him, and he quickly saluted.

"See Saint..."

Before he could even lower his body, someone lifted his elbow.

"You want to go out?" the other party asked gently.

"..." Su Changzhao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "Not really, I wanted to go out to look for my master, but now that I have seen him, there is no need to go out."

Jiuchen seemed to be very pleased with her words. "Let's go," he suddenly took her hand, "I'll accompany you wherever you want to go."

"Can……"

Before Su Changzhao could finish her words, Jiuchen had already pulled her out without saying anything.

Along the way.

Su Changzhao saw the magnificent palace and the intricately carved corridors, and finally they came to a large platform.

Jiuchen took her to the end.

When I saw the well-arranged houses and streets below——

"Is this the entire Yundu City?" Su Changzhao said in a daze with his peach eyes wide open.

"More than that," Jiuchen pointed to the distance, "Can you see the farthest white line?"

Su Changzhao tried to look far away, and finally saw what he said, "Yeah."

"That is the protection line of the territory."

“…”

Su Changzhao knew that it was said that the defense of the border had been built since the ancestors, and each generation of saints would build city walls to resist foreign enemies.

That very far place looks like a white line, but it is actually a very high wall.

With the reinforcement and raising of the walls by successive saints, the walls of the domain have been repaired and become as strong as a copper wall and iron wall.

It is even worse than a ghost town and is truly easy to defend but difficult to attack.

"You can actually see that far?" Su Changzhao couldn't help but ask in disbelief.

The people around him smiled and said, "Because this is the highest place in the entire territory."

"..."Any higher, it would be outrageous to be able to see the border.

Next second.

Su Changzhao was hugged from behind by the other party, and the scent of sandalwood instantly enveloped him.

Su Changzhao was startled, "Master?"

A deep voice came from my ear: "I brought you here to tell you that the entire territory is now at your feet. I can give you a lot, money, power, status, as long as you want, you can get it at your fingertips."

She felt a burning sensation on her shoulder. Even without turning around, she knew the person behind her was burying his head in her shoulder.

"..." But Su Changzhao felt something was wrong the more he listened, so he quickly broke free and said with a smile, "Haha, Master loves me so much, I am very happy. But I am not interested in what you said."

"Then what do you want?" Jiuchen stepped forward eagerly and grabbed one of her hands.

Su Changzhao kept smiling, then slowly pulled his hand out: "I am quite satisfied with the current situation, there is nothing I want."

"Then why did you leave?" Jiuchen grabbed her hand that she had just pulled away.

Su Changzhao: "..." What happened to this kid? Did he take the wrong medicine?

How did he know I was leaving?

Recalling that she had mentioned this to Qi Lan.

Oh my god, Qi Lan, that big mouth, it must be him who said that.

Su Changzhao could only smile and comfort him: "Master, who are you listening to? Why would I want to leave?"

Jiuchen looked at her deeply and said nothing.

Being stared at by him felt like performing a lousy little magic trick in front of a magician.

Su Changzhao quickly changed the subject, "By the way, I heard that I was sleepwalking that night. Was it the master who saved me?"

Jiuchen didn't seem to want to see her lying, so he looked down at her hand, squeezed it, and nodded: "Yeah."

Seeing his somewhat silly answer, Su Changzhao smiled for no reason, "Haha, I didn't expect that I have the bad habit of sleepwalking. I wonder why the master went out that night and picked me up?"

“…”

Perhaps it was because of Su Changzhao's indirect hint or for some other reason, Jiuchen's movement of pinching her hand paused.

That night, Su Changzhao went out and suffered from full body paralysis twice. She didn't think much about it at the time, but after waking up, she thought about it carefully and found many loopholes.

Just then she was sick, and Jiuchen happened to be out alone, so he found her and picked her up.

How can there be so many coincidences?

Suddenly.

A-choo.

Su Changzhao sneezed.

Jiuchen immediately hugged her tightly in his arms, "It's windy here, let's go back first."

Su Changzhao knew that he was intentionally avoiding the topic, so he didn't force him to get an answer. He nodded and said, "Yes."

Return to residence.

Perhaps because he was afraid of being questioned, Jiuchen said he had something else to do and left.

Not long after, Qi Lan arrived.

He seemed to have adjusted himself, and when he saw Su Changzhao he was the same as before, except that his words were a little more respectful and not as venomous as at the beginning.

"Master Jiuchen has just succeeded to the throne of the Holy Son and is busy until late every day. Please don't be angry with him."

When they just met and heard the other party constantly speaking well of Jiuchen, Su Changzhao finally couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha……"

"What are you laughing at?" Qi Lan was stunned at first, then began to feel dissatisfied.

Su Changzhao smiled and said, "I was wondering how much good the master has given you. Since I woke up, you have been saying good things about him all the time."

"No, I'm telling the truth. What do you mean by speaking well of an adult? You are so heartless when you say that! You don't even know that for you, the adult..."

Su Changzhao tilted his head, waiting for his next words, but halfway through Qi Lan's speech, he suddenly realized that he had almost let the cat out of the bag, and immediately covered his mouth with his hands.

Su Changzhao frowned: "What's wrong with him? Why doesn't he say anything?"

Qi Lan put down the hand covering his mouth and shook his head wildly, "Nothing... nothing!"

"Eh? There's something wrong with you. Is there something I shouldn't know? What did the master do?"

Su Changzhao deliberately moved closer and blinked his beautiful peach eyes.

Qi Lan was originally a pure-hearted girl, and she could not stand Su Changzhao's behavior. Her face turned red and she stood up and ran out.

"I...I have something else to do. I'll come see you next time."

Seeing him running so fast, Su Changzhao couldn't help laughing again.

"Ha ha!"

.

The next two days.

Su Changzhao discovered that, except for Qi Lan, almost all the other people he could meet seemed to have been greeted in advance.

No matter how she inquired, she couldn't get these people to talk.

Therefore, there is no way to know what Jiuchen did while she was unconscious.

but.

They obviously didn't know her well enough yet.

That night.

Su Changzhao pretended to be submissive and went to bed after dinner.

After the people left, she immediately came to an incense burner, covered her nose, opened the lid, and extinguished the incense inside with tea. Then she picked it up, looked at it, and took a light sniff.

She found that it was the same as she had guessed before.

"Don't think that if you don't tell me anything, I won't know. After all, I have been a villain before..."

She spoke slowly, holding the piece of scented paper in her hand that could make people drowsy when lit.
