It took several hours to heal Qian Youxue's injuries, and her spiritual power was also greatly restored thanks to the old Taoist's help.
Not long after Qian Youxue and Xuan Mingye ran away, Leng Mo told Yun He the news. Hua Yujie, who couldn't sleep, originally wanted to come and find Qian Youxue, but after hearing what Leng Mo said, she insisted on coming out with them. Helpless, Yun He could only take her along to follow the trail left by Leng Xue.
Just as they were about to leave the city gate, Yunhe sensed something was wrong and fired a signal flare for the people from Yaowang Valley. Unexpectedly, it was the young master Wuxie and the old man who came.
So they chased after them all the way, searching up and down the mountain all night.
Hua Yujie wasn't in good health and didn't want to be a burden to everyone. She fell many times along the way. In the end, Wuxie couldn't bear to see her like this and simply carried her on his back to search for her. Finally, the old man used a strange tracking spell to find Qian Youxue's whereabouts.
"Why didn't you wait until I was dead before you appeared?" Qian Youxue angrily yelled at the stinky old Taoist.
The old Taoist priest scratched his head with a wronged expression, like a child who had done something wrong: "Do you think I wanted this? I was trapped in that curse for over ten years. If I hadn't been smart enough to use the curse to split your soul in two, do you think you could have lived again?"
"Senior Youming, who is so powerful that even you are no match for him?" Wuxie looked at the old Taoist Youming with great curiosity. If it weren't for the old Taoist Youming's sudden appearance, he and his father would probably be meeting the King of Hell by now.
Why……
The old Taoist priest sighed deeply and said helplessly, "I didn't know before, but later I found out that it was a forbidden spell of the Mountain and Sea Clan. They were actually not targeting me, but your own father. The Mountain and Sea Clan was forced into it. You will soon find out who it is. It's a pity that my precious disciple and his wife are not blessed enough to see their precious daughter become so outstanding."
"You mean my parents are both dead?" Qian Youxue sat up agitatedly.
"If they were alive, would I, an old man, have to worry so much? But you're lucky to have met a kind-hearted woman, otherwise how could you have survived?" The old Taoist said this, but his face showed great heartache.
Qian Youxue bit her lip, suppressing the pain in her heart. Suddenly, something came to mind: "It was the Empress Dowager who wanted to exterminate them. She had already found out about Father's relationship with the Qian family, so she had the Shan Hai Clan kill them."
"Empress Dowager Xuanwu?" The old Taoist priest of the Netherworld hated this person with a vengeance.
Qian Youxue nodded and told the old Daoist Youming what she knew. After listening, the old Daoist Youming's face turned furious, and he kept shouting that he wanted to go and take revenge on the old hag.
...
Night had just fallen, and the princess's palace was filled with a deathly atmosphere.
When Princess Lianyi returned from outside, she saw that the house was full of corpses, and the bloodthirsty man was holding a guard in his hand.
Princess Lianyi, seeing that the situation was not good, sent Magpie to fetch the Imperial Advisor. The Imperial Advisor, seeing the situation, probably guessed what had happened.
After all, the name of the War King was renowned, and as the national advisor of the White Tiger Kingdom, how could he not know him?
However, what interested him most wasn't the War King, but the War King's wife with her special status. He had just received news from a friend that the War King's wife possessed the Sunflower Fruit, a treasure that was extremely rare and hard to come by.
"Grand Preceptor, he seems to be losing control of himself." Princess Lianyi wondered what was wrong with the Grand Preceptor at this moment.
The Imperial Advisor came to his senses and cast a spell from his hand. Xuan Mingye swayed twice and fainted on the ground.
"Will he... will he be alright?" Princess Lianyi ran over excitedly and helped the unconscious Xuan Mingye up from the ground.
"He is the War King, how could he be easily harmed? However, if that War King's consort is alive, you definitely won't be able to have this man." The Grand Preceptor gave Princess Lianyi a cunning look, he wanted to reap the benefits.
War King!
That's the famous war god of the four kingdoms!
No wonder I fell for him at first sight; he's just that outstanding.
Princess Lianyi happily embraced him, but a fierce killing intent flashed in her eyes. She then sent out a second group of people to hunt down Qian Youxue.
Meanwhile, Xuan Mingye was in a dream, having the same dream over and over again. He dreamt of a woman, whose back view was very familiar, yet she never turned around. But he could sense that the woman in his dream was not Princess Lianyi.
When he woke up, it was almost dawn. Princess Lianyi was by his side, and the maid Shuangxi rushed in from outside. The two whispered something to each other, and then they went out.
He sat up, and felt a warmth emanating from the pendant on his chest. He sensed a guiding force and followed it as he left the princess's palace.
However, he did not expect that Princess Lianyi was following behind him.
Princess Lianyi's second batch of men failed to find anyone, and she and Shuangxi were worried when they discovered that Xuan Mingye had left the house, so they curiously followed him out.
Upon seeing Qian Youxue's figure in the distance, she exuded a murderous aura. Before Xuan Mingye could even approach, she rushed to Qian Youxue's side at top speed.
Qian Youxue felt a little better and walked around the neighborhood, but unexpectedly, she was attacked again. She skillfully dodged several of Princess Lianyi's attacks and found that her agility seemed to have decreased a lot.
Just as the sword was about to slash across Qian Youxue's neck, Xuan Mingye instinctively stepped forward to block it, but was struck by Princess Lianyi's palm in a fit of rage, his head hitting a rock and causing him to lose consciousness.
“Night…” Qian Youxue shouted.
Xuan Mingye felt a thud before everything went black.
Qian Youxue was furious this time. She waved her hand and drew the Yin-Yang Sword, aiming it at Princess Lianyi.
Princess Lianyi saw the War King faint and wanted to help him up, but she was stabbed in the shoulder by a sword. She was in so much pain that her face contorted. She gathered her spiritual energy and threw it at Qian Youxue.
In her current state, even the Yin-Yang Sword wouldn't be very effective against Qian Youxue. Plus, Princess Lianyi is far superior to her, making it a complete and utter crushing defeat.
Bang!
She was sent flying by a palm strike, and carefully clutching her stomach, she crashed into a large tree.
Princess Lianyi saw Qian Youxue's action, a wicked smile appeared on her lips, and with a wave of her hand, a sword appeared in her hand. She then thrust the sword towards Qian Youxue's stomach.
At this critical moment, a handsome figure appeared and quickly grabbed Qian Youxue to escape.
Princess Lianyi looked up and saw Wuxie's handsome face, then froze, completely infatuated. She couldn't believe the men around this wretched woman were all so good-looking. She thought, "Just wait, after I get rid of this woman, all these handsome men will belong to me."
Looking at Wuxie, a smile spread across her face.
Unfortunately, despite being a beauty, Wu Xie saw her as an ugly duckling. Judging from her disgusting gaze, she was probably just looking for a man.
