Dragon returns and suddenly feels cold
Lu Yixin was woken up by a bucket of cold water.
Her head was still spinning, and the intense pain that had lasted for so long had made her numb. She raised her hand slightly, trying to cover her chest and suppress the nausea and vomiting, but suddenly someone pried it open and stepped on it!
"ah......"
Was your finger crushed?
"Colluding with the dragons, you deserve this punishment!"
Ling Qianshuang's eyes were red. She threw down the bucket, wiped away her tears, and whispered to the person behind her, "Let her fend for herself here. It's very late. We'll come back tomorrow."
"yes."
The cold iron gate slammed shut, and for a moment the surroundings were extremely quiet, with only Lu Yixin breathing rapidly.
Good heavens... she's been so wronged! Since arriving in Wutongmu, she hasn't said a word or done anything.
Brother Qiexing... But she couldn't blame him. He just wanted revenge. What did he do wrong?
The Phoenix Maiden did nothing wrong, and neither did she.
So where exactly is the wrong party?
The pain throbbed and screamed, and Lu Yixin lay on the ground, unable to hold back her sobs.
It hurts so much... Brother Qiexing, she's in so much pain.
Only then did she notice the warmth emanating from her wrist that she had previously ignored. She wiped the blood smeared on her eyelids with the back of her bloodied hand, and the only faint light in the darkness finally entered her vision.
Is her bracelet glowing?
"Whenever you want to contact me, just drop a drop of blood on it, and I will sense it."
Yun Xinglan's voice seemed to ring right next to her ears. Lu Yixin endured the excruciating pain and struggled to recall what he had said. Yes, her blood was splattered everywhere, and she didn't know when it had gotten onto the bracelet.
She hoped he hadn't heard anything about what she was going through. She didn't want anyone to worry about her anymore.
She recited a mantra, trying to steady her voice so that it sounded the same as usual: "Starry Night".
"Miss Deer!"
Yun Xinglan received the sounds from Lu Yixin's side from the very beginning. He was almost frantic with worry. He knew Huang Nu's methods better than anyone. If Lu Yixin fell into her hands, she would at least lose half her life.
Her voice gradually faded, and Yun Xinglan had to assume the worst about her. He kept trying to contact Lu Yixin, but he never received a response.
"What has the God Lord done to you?!"
So, he heard everything... Lu Yixin took a deep breath and chuckled softly, "It's nothing, don't worry."
That makes it even more worrying!
Yun Xinglan felt a pang of pain in his heart. He said in a deep voice, "Miss Lu, please don't anger the Divine Lord. Wait for me, I'll come find you right away."
Who would want to provoke her?
"Don't come any closer, Xinglan!" Lu Yixin said anxiously, "Your unauthorized return to Wutong Tree is disobeying the imperial decree. If the Phoenix Maiden finds out it's because of me, you're dead!"
"Besides," she coughed twice, her voice trembling with tears, "Brother Qiexing has already come. The Phoenix Clan... the Phoenix Clan is now in turmoil, and the people are suffering terribly."
She told Yun Xinglan everything she had seen and her guesses. There was an eerie silence on the other end. After a moment of silence, Lu Yixin choked out, "I'm sorry..."
This apology is on behalf of God.
Although she knew that a simple apology could not cover up Shen Qiexing's crimes, nor could it erase the wronged souls and blood on his hands, she didn't know what else she could do.
Someone who likes this kind of person must be hated by Yun Xinglan.
He is him, and you are you.
Yun Xinglan clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her palms, leaving bloody marks. "Miss Lu, you don't need to apologize for him."
“Xinglan, don’t go looking for trouble with him,” Lu Yixin said, understanding Yun Xinglan’s feelings. “You are no match for Shen Qiexing now.”
Even at this point, she was still thinking of Yun Xinglan.
"You shouldn't come back either. Just be a wandering sorcerer. With Brother Qiexing around, Huang Nu won't kill me for now. She'll spare my life to threaten Brother Qiexing, so at most I'll just suffer a little. Xinglan, you absolutely mustn't come back!"
Suffering is nothing; she's the best at enduring hardship.
The Phoenix Queen truly kept her word.
She compared Huang Sheng's injuries and applied them all to Lu Yixin.
On the first day, she pierced Lu Yixin's eyes with nails.
The next day, she forcefully broke both of Lu Yixin's arms. Just like Huang Sheng, her forearms were only connected to her upper arms by a few bits of skin and flesh.
On the third day, she held a Heavenly Gang Sword and stabbed seven bloody holes in Lu Yixin's body.
......
—
She is not in Mitianze.
"Your Majesty, you've been back for almost half a month now. You can't just stay cooped up in your room all the time. Please have something to eat."
Baozhu, carrying a wooden tray, gently knocked on the door of Shen Qiexing's bedroom. She exchanged a worried glance with An Ziyi beside her.
If the Little Deer Fairy isn't in Mitianze, where else could she be...?
He turned Mi Tianze upside down but still couldn't find any trace of the Little Deer Fairy.
The Forest King's health is deteriorating, and he is already old and frail. It is a bit unreasonable that Little Deer Fairy is not taking care of him in the Ancient Temple. She is a filial child, how could she abandon the Forest King and hide away?
But she had no reason to leave Mi Tianze.
Outside, Baozhu was still calling his name incessantly, as if she wouldn't give up until he left. Shen Qiexing sighed and, after twelve days, finally stepped out of the palace.
Baozhu was overjoyed and quickly handed the tray to An Ziyi. She then picked up a bowl of white fungus soup and placed it in Shen Qiexing's hands. "Everyone was so worried. They thought something had happened to you. Well, thank goodness, you're finally out."
Given his current condition, even if he didn't eat for ten years, it wouldn't have any effect. Baozhu still thought of him as before.
Shen Qiexing finished the bowl of white fungus soup in front of her, wiped his lips with a handkerchief, and said to her, "I'm going to sea."
He wasn't too worried about Little Deer. Although he didn't know why she left or where she went, judging from the applications of the Forest King and the white lion, they were clearly aware of Little Deer's departure.
It's been too long since I've been lazy; it's time to take a trip to the underworld.
"Are you leaving in the next couple of days?" Baozhu asked.
"Um."
Shen Qiexing paused, seemingly glancing at the taciturn An Ziyi, then raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "Are you getting used to being here?"
Baozhu's gaze swept back and forth between the two, vaguely sensing an uneasy atmosphere.
“The Divine Lord is quite good at training his servants,” An Ziyi said calmly. “Not bad.”
“That’s good,” Shen Qiexing nodded slightly. “If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask Baozhu.”
"Yes, yes, I can do everything."
The next morning, Shen Qiexing left.
He never informed his subordinates before each trip; he only needed Baozhu to know. Baozhu was extremely busy every day, and she even had to squeeze in time to eat.
"An Ziyi!"
She had just taken a bite of rice when An Ziyi grabbed her arm and dragged her out of the Dragon Palace. She quickly swallowed the rice and glared at him, saying indistinctly, "What is it that you have to see now?!"
An Ziyi ignored her; she was used to An Ziyi's behavior. She then shouted to herself, "This is outrageous! It's one thing for the God to order me around, but even a lowly prisoner like you dares to order me around so casually? What sins did I commit in my past life—"
Her voice stopped abruptly. An Ziyi reached out her hand, and in her palm was a piece of malt candy wrapped in glutinous rice paper.
"I forgive you."
Baozhu popped it into her mouth and immediately put on a cheerful expression. "Oh, you really understand me. Okay, lead the way." There was almost no light source in the deep sea. An Ziyi held a ball of dark red flame in her palm and turned to Baozhu behind her, saying, "Hold on tight to me, don't get lost."
"Okay, I'm not a child anymore."
Despite grumbling with dissatisfaction, Baozhu subconsciously tightened her grip on his sleeve.
She glanced at the person in front of her, and couldn't help but recall the first time they met.
That day, she followed behind him in the same way, walking step by step.
When she first entered the Dragon Palace, she was not yet familiar with all the routes. One night, she suddenly lost her way and happened to run into An Ziyi, who had come to pay her respects.
He recognized her at a glance, and seeing the embarrassed look on her face, he understood.
"Miss Baozhu, please stay close to me and don't get separated."
"arrive."
Baozhu was still lost in her memories when she heard An Ziyi's voice and suddenly realized that this was a place she had never been before.
"This is......"
Her face was flushed crimson, and she unconsciously took two steps forward, staring intently at the scene before her.
A giant peach-pink coral tree grew out of a crack in the seabed!
The coral tree squeezed out of the crevices, emitting a faint crimson light. Its branches crisscrossed, forming a net that covered the sky, swaying gently from side to side in the water.
Baozhu reached out and gently stroked a coral branch. The cool touch made her feel as if she and the coral had become one.
"An Ziyi, this place is very far from the Dragon Palace, how did you find it?" An Ziyi didn't answer her, only asking, "Do you like it?"
She turned around in surprise, her eyes crinkling with a smile, "I really like it, thank you!"
How did you know I like coral?!
Because you always wear a coral bead bracelet on your wrist.
An Ziyi came to her side, carefully examined the coral tree in front of her, broke off a branch, and said, "This is for you."
“An Ziyi, it would be great if you weren’t a member of the Jiao Clan,” Baozhu said, taking the broken coral branch, tilting her head, and counting on her fingers. “Look, you are steady and meticulous. If you had been able to assist the God from the beginning, the God would have subdued the Tianpin Sea long ago.”
Well, it's not too late now.
“Speaking of which,” Baozhu raised her eyes, clearing her throat slightly guiltily, “after you learned that I was a spy sent by the God, is there nothing you want to say to me?”
"No."
"Then you've never thought about avenging Su Hanyuan? Aren't you the person he trusts the most?"
"No."
"You're a really strange person."
"Um."
