Yulixiao had his hands behind his back the entire time as he stood in front of everyone.
Rivers and mountains, the world, had always been so important to him. With mountains and rivers, he would no longer be lonely. With mountains and rivers, he would have what he wanted. It was no longer the prince who drank alone under the moon or the war god who ran alone on the battlefield. He would be high above everyone's heads, and under his hands, he would be like a painting, vast and eternal.
At his side was a simple tent, where Yu Yan was currently lying down. Mo Wenli used her own inner force cultivation method to extend her life, while October, Jin Cheng, and An Hong guarded her from the side.
He was waiting for the falcon that could bring him the life-saving medicine.
"king, drink some water." Ye Mingyue brought the water bag over and handed it over to him.
He shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Don't wait any longer, go back with your father."
"With the king here, Brightmoon will not go anywhere. Life and death shall depend on fate." Ye Mingyue turned her head, looked at the place where the flames burned, and said softly.
A burst of noise sounded, and when everyone turned to look, it was Sai Mi carrying Chen Yao.
"You actually dare to come!" Nian An was walking out from the small tent, upon seeing the two of them, her eyes immediately turned red, and she picked up a branch on the ground and was about to throw it.
"Chen Yao said that it wasn't her doing. Sai Mi put Chen Yao down, stretched her arms out to block the tree branch that Nian An was calling and looked at her sinisterly.
"Bring her back to the Valley of the Divine Doctor, and I will have someone send her the letter of departure." Yulixiao slightly frowned, he did not say much, and only stared in the direction of the falcon.
Sai Mi suddenly raised his head and looked at him in shock. After a long while, he angrily asked: "She followed you with no regards to his life and death, you want to distance yourself and her?"
"She suggested it herself."
Just as Yulixiao was speaking, he heard some movement from inside the tent. His expression changed, and he quickly turned and entered the tent.
Mo Wenli sweated profusely, as if he had just been fished out of water.
"How is it?" Yulixiao anxiously went over and supported the unconscious Yu Yan.
"It can help her endure for a few hours." Mo Wenli's face turned white, she took out her handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her forehead. She raised her eyes and asked softly: "If the antidote is not here yet, what will you do?"
The corner of Yulixiao's mouth puckered. He stared at her for a while, then said in a low voice, "Give her my blood and tears. Take her away."
"You will be willing to part with it?" Mo Wenli mocked.
Yulixiao ignored his provocation and picked up a water bag from the side, poured some water onto the silk handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat off Yu Yan's face. He then let her lean on his arm and look at her red face and said softly, "Mo Wenli, if there really is that moment, please remember your words. What I promised her can no longer be accomplished. Since you addressed her as her brother, I hope that you can be like a man and fulfill your responsibilities as your brother. "
Mo Wenli's thin lips slightly bent, but he looked down, his sharp eyes staring straight at him, "Think carefully, if you want to gouge out your heart and flesh, don't worry about your head, you might not be able to live."
"Life and death are in heaven, I once said, even if I fall, I can't let her fall. For a man to become a man, his words must be as good as gold. " Yulixiao embraced her gently and turned to look at Mo Wenli. "Mo Wenli, you can be considered a loyal person. Even at this moment, you're still able to stay here to guard her."
Mo Wenli no longer made a sound, and only lowered his head to look at Yu Yan who was in his embrace.
"I just want to know who told you about the silver hairpin." Yulixiao stared at him and asked.
Mo Wenli's sword-like brows furrowed slightly. After pondering for a moment, she said softly, "He still has something she hasn't completed. I promised him that I can't say. But there was one thing he would not harm Yu Yan, he would only protect her. Chen Yao is a vicious woman, regardless of whether you are dead or alive, it is best not to let her live, as she will become a scourge. "
The sharp light in Yulixiao's eyes dimmed as he tried to guess whether Mo Wenli's words were true or false. At this moment, a loud shout came from outside the tent.
"The eagle is coming!"
"Guard her well." Yulixiao immediately stood up and walked out of the tent.
In the sky, which was dyed bright by the flames, an eagle was flapping its wings and flying over from the sea of fire. He was overjoyed at the turn of events. He quickly mounted his horse and dashed in the direction from which the eagle had come.
Just as it was about to close in on the falcon, two sharp arrows suddenly shot out from a dark corner, aiming straight at the falcon. The arrow was as fast as the wind as it accurately hit the eagle's wings. The eagle let out a sharp cry and tumbled through the air before falling straight down.
There was a river below, with burning boats in it. If he fell into the flames, the antidote would be gone! Yulixiao's heart suddenly sank. With a tug of the reins, the warhorse jumped more than a hundred feet into the air. It flew even faster, heading straight for the ball of fire.
"king …"
"King Xiao …"
Everyone cried out in alarm as they watched him charge into the fiery ship. With a roar, October sprang up from the side of the tent like a bolt of white lightning, charging towards the raging fire. Jin Cheng, An Hong also followed closely behind, causing waves of chaos within the camp.
"king doesn't care about his life, he's going to protect Princess Hua-Yang now." Yu Qingan turned around, his fat face full of worry.
"king is a person who values kindness greatly. I'm afraid that we will have to rescue the wangfei first before we can lead the troops to battle." Yu Fengxiao frowned, patted Yu Qingan's arm and said: "Quickly bring your men over, in case someone takes action in the chaos."
Yu Qingan quickly nodded his head and quickly went to arrange some men. He increased his patrolling and quickly ran towards the river with his men.
Before they could stop him, they saw that October had already jumped onto the fire boat. While they were still in a daze, a figure suddenly rushed out from within the fire, with a body of flames, making him into a fire man. He fell into the water with both arms raised high, afraid that the water would wet the antidote in his hands.
October behind him, the snow-colored hair burned, soaked in the water, jumped to shore, and rolled on the ground to ease the burning pain.
"Hurry, torch, hurry up and have Bai Chengan come take a look." Yulixiao took a big step forward, opening the small copper pipe in his hand, and retrieved a silk cloth sealed with wax.
Nie Shuangcheng brought the torch closer so that he could read the words on it.
Once the flame was imprinted onto the word, Nie Shuangcheng immediately cried out, "How can this work? With the war approaching, aren't we pushing the king to its death? "
Yulixiao held onto the silk piece tightly, his sharp eyes sweeping across Nie Shuangcheng, "You talk too much, step down."
Nie Shuangcheng's eyes turned red, he took a few steps back while holding the torch.
"What is it?" Ye Mingyue came over and asked Nie Shuangcheng nervously.
Nie Shuangcheng lifted his head to glance at the tent as his lips tightened. He shook his head, but the fingers that held the torch tightly clenched.
Ye Mingyue became even more nervous, she ran to Chen Yao's side and squatted down to shake her, "Where are you going? Hurry and let king take a look. "
"Don't touch her." Sai Mi pushed her away with all his might, then raised the curved blade and pointed it at Ye Mingyue's chest.
"Is there something wrong with you?" Ye Mingyue looked at him angrily, then turned and walked out of the small tent, and nervously looked inside.
The soldiers surrounded them, and in an instant, the camp looked at Yulixiao, as if there was no one present. They were all waiting for him to make his decision, whether they would bring them to the battlefield to kill the enemy or their beauty.
Nie Shuangcheng suddenly could not help but have tears on his face. He threw the torch and knelt down, then kowtowed to him and said: king, if you want blood, please take this subordinate's blood. king thinks twice … "
Yulixiao lowered his head to look at him, and said in a heavy voice, "There is no need to be like this, I will give a clear explanation."
Bai Chengan walked over quickly, took the silk in his hands and after reading it, his face sank as he said loudly:
"king, using your blood in exchange for her. However, the matter of exchanging blood has never been mentioned before. If there's even the slightest deviation, you and Princess Hua-Yang will be gone. You must reconsider. "
"What?" Change of blood? " Yu Fengxiao's face darkened as he hurried over.
"I can't allow this to happen." Everyone gathered around him in an attempt to persuade him.
Yulixiao pushed the few people in front of him away and steadily walked towards the small tent. As long as there was a chance of survival, he would try his best. His blood was masculine enough, he would definitely be able to keep Yu Yan alive. His bones were masculine enough, so he would definitely be able to withstand the ferocity of the Forgotten Butterfly.
Entering the small tent, Yulixiao was suddenly startled, Mo Wenli and Yu Yan had both disappeared!
