"I truly want to see your current face. If you knew I lost the tail you sent and ran off by myself, I wonder if your beautiful face would be a bit sinister." "Haha, I'll let you all feel depressed. This queen has escaped from prison and has become a golden phoenix, so let me do as I please in the open sky and sea."

When he thought of how he had gotten rid of the person sent by the palace's Mystic Phoenix and escaped, he felt extremely proud of himself. Bending down and jogging, she escaped out of the palace. It was also because of her good luck, but because of the chilly autumn rain and the dense night, she actually did not encounter any obstructions.

After running for some distance, they saw that it was already a residential area. Ji Tian Ning recalled the words Shang Qiuyuan had once said to her in her ear. It gave her an address where she could ask for help if she ever got out of the palace.

Ji Tian gazed at the Ancestral Dragon City through the rain and bitterly laughed, "I am unfamiliar with this place. How can I find this place with just my eyes? "One day, I didn't even see a small shop. I don't think there's going to be a twenty-four hours restaurant."

There was no light in the house. There was only silence in the darkness. Ji Tian Ning touched his identity plate; he did not want to go out of the city by himself.

"No, I must find this place. Otherwise, I might be caught by the White Horse Emperor before I escape too far."

In the distance, there was a glimmer of light, swaying in the night rain, distant and vague. Ji Tian Ning could not be bothered about anything else as she jogged toward the light. If there was a light, there would be people asking where they were going.

A faint voice could be heard, along with which, a burst of mellow fragrance drifted over with the wind. Ji Tian Ning took a deep breath. It turned out to be a wine shop. It was evident that the restaurant in this place had yet to close. Two people were sitting in the middle of the restaurant.

He quickly ran into the inn, wiped the rain off his face and looked around. The owner of the inn was sizing up this person who had arrived late at night. Could it be that there was another freak? There were already two weirdos here, there was definitely not one more.

The soft armor was revealed under his raincoat along with his treasured sword. A smile was plastered on the boss' face. He couldn't afford to offend Master Guan. This person might be a military officer, but his shoes were a bit strange.

Ji Tian Ning was still wearing her original tourist shoes. They were soaked by the rain and mud, making them look neither black nor white. It was quite strange.

His gaze swept across the wine shop. It was already late at night. The ancient people rested early, and the barren people even slept early to avoid wasting lamp oil. Most of the surroundings were hidden in the darkness. Only a few places had faint lights.

In the restaurant, there were only two customers staring at each other. When they saw Ji Tian Ning enter, their gazes fell onto him.

Ji Tian Ning had a bamboo hat on his head and a straw cape on his body. His face was hidden beneath the bamboo hat. In order to avoid being recognized, his face was smeared with muddy water. His face was streaked with white and black, like a clown. Ji Tian Ning was confident that even if she was before the eyes of the White Horse Emperor, the White Horse Emperor would not be able to recognize her.

On the opposite side of the room, there was a skeleton sitting on a chair. If it wasn't for the fact that it was covered by skin, Ji Tian Ning was worried that the skeleton would have scattered.

Although there was one more person on the other side and the owner and waiters were present in the tavern, he gave off a feeling of loneliness. With his high cheekbones and sunken eye sockets, and a skeleton in his clothes, the night wind seemed to blow away with the wind.

Beneath his ribs was a treasured blade. In the restaurant, this person's right hand was placed next to the blade's hilt. His hands were also emaciated, and his dark eyes were filled with an aura of death. It caused others to involuntarily want to move away from him.

Subconsciously, Ji Tian Ning felt that this person was extremely dangerous and that it was best not to get too close to him.

She didn't immediately enter the inn. She just wanted to ask the owner for directions, not to drink. It would be better to quickly ask for directions to leave.

"Dear guest, since it's already so late and we're closing time, please find an inn to rest."

The boss had long wanted to drive away the two men who were hanging around the liquor store, but he didn't dare to. The man who looked like a skeleton caused him to feel a chill in his heart.

The person in front of the skeleton slowly turned his head. He glanced at Ji Tian Ning before turning his head away, no longer paying any attention to Ji Tian Ning.

Under the dim light of the night, with just one glance, Ji Tian Ning's mouth was gaping wide open. "Hate the Heavens!"

With two or three steps, he jumped over to Li Hantian's shoulder. Seeing this Hu'er right now was no different from meeting an old friend in a long time.

Just as his hand reached out, a strong hand grabbed his wrist. A sharp scimitar was placed on Ji Tian Ning's neck.

A pair of unusually bright eyes, which concealed an endless chill, coldly stared at her: "Who are you? "How do you recognize a particular family?"

His slightly curly hair was brown in color, and he had a straight nose and a sunken eyes that made people intoxicated. Her glass-like eyes were filled with questions. Her handsome face reminded Ji Tian Ning of a Greek statue.

When she was gripped by the wrist, her body had lost all strength. She looked at the perfect, completely different east side of her face.

Li Hen Tian was a hybrid of Han and Hu people, with both the fierce and handsome Hu man as well as a bit of Han nationality. When Ji Tianning saw Li Hantian again, his heart would still palpitate. This was not because of his love for Li Hantian at first sight. It was because this mixed blood handsome brother was too good-looking.

There was a valiant beauty to his manly mannerisms, just like the occasional jaguar in the forest, carrying an indescribable and indescribable aura.

"Li Hantian, why are you here?"

Hateful Sky coldly stared at Ji Tian Ning. He did not recognize this person, but felt that the voice sounded somewhat familiar. He had heard it somewhere before.

From Ji Tian Ning's clear black gem-like eyes, he could not detect any ill intentions. His hand loosened slightly.

"Who are you?"

Suddenly, Li Hantian's beautiful eyes widened. How could he forget about that voice just now? Yes, it was the sound that made him yearn for it, causing him to be unable to sleep soundly.

"It's you!"

Li Hantian hurriedly released his hand and looked around to make sure there was no danger before cupping his fists and bowing respectfully, "My apologies, please... please do not apologize."

Seeing Ji Tian Ning's attire, Li Wen only knew that she shouldn't have revealed Ji Tian Ning's identity, and could only vaguely guess her identity.

However, the eyes of the person sitting opposite to Li Hen Tian revealed a hint of interest. After being together with Hu'er for a few days, they had never seen this unruly and unruly Hu'er being so respectful to anyone. His gaze landed on Ji Tian Ning as he carefully sized up this uninvited guest.

"The voice just now …"

That sound also made him feel a sense of familiarity, as if he had been dreaming.

The dark and gloomy eyes that were filled with an aura of death stared at Ji Tian Ning's eyes. Those eyes also gave him a sense of familiarity. It was as if he had seen this person somewhere before.

"It's me, I'm coming out. Where is this place?" Why are you here? "

Seeing Li Hantian recognize him, a smile appeared on his face and he held Li Hantian's hand, his eyes filled with tears. To be able to see Li Hen Tian in this place late at night, the heavens were truly worthy of their notice, and they were secretly fond of him.

"This place is not a place to talk. Please follow me."

Ji Tian Ning's face reddened slightly as she grabbed his hand. Feeling the icy coldness of his palm, she couldn't help but clench her hand tightly, warming her hand with the warmth of her own palm. Originally, he should have let go of Ji Tian Ning's hand. The men and women of the five countries were very cautious. It was inappropriate to hold the hand of a woman like this.

However, when his hand was grabbed, he actually couldn't bear to let go.

"It's not that I'm holding her hand, it's that she's holding my hand, it's that I'm being frivolous to her."

As he thought of this, his face turned red.

The smile in Ji Tian's eyes became even wider. Looking at this handsome Greek statue-like man up close, especially the slightly embarrassed Li Hen Tian, made one's heart beat even faster.

"If this were in the modern world, who knows how many girls would be enchanted. He's so handsome."

After feeling the warmth of Hateful Sky's palm, his heart suddenly calmed down. It was as if he no longer needed to worry about anything with this person by his side.

Hateful Sky pulled Ji Tian Ning back and turned around to look at the skeleton. He then said, "Let's go, the people we're waiting for have arrived!"

The skeleton's facial expression changed drastically. It suddenly understood. No wonder that voice, that expression, was so familiar. He hastily stood up and respectfully bowed deeply to Ji Tian Ning. However, he thought that he could not reveal Ji Tian Ning's identity. Thus, he did not say anything as he followed behind Li Hen Tian.

His lifeless eyes swept across the surroundings of the rainy night. His emaciated, fleshless hand tightly gripped the treasured saber beneath his ribs.

The owner and waiters in the restaurant couldn't help but shiver in fear. After sending the god of pests off with their eyes, they finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Ji Tian Ning curiously looked at the skeleton. He didn't know why this person was so respectful to her. He followed Li Hantian out of the inn and into the dark night.

A moment later, Li Hantian led her to a door. Without turning his head, he asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"None!"

The raucous business was like the ghosts wandering in the rain, cold and chilling. Li Hantian lightly tapped the knocker on the door three times. Someone opened the door and pulled Ji Tian Ning in.

The dark eyes of the skeleton slowly swept around and in a flash, it entered the yard. Immediately, someone closed the door tightly.

Someone lit the lamp in the room and Ji Tian Ning followed behind Hateful Sky into the room. She finally let out a sigh of relief. It was now temporarily safe. Just now, when he had scanned the place with his gaze, he had felt that although this courtyard was normal, there seemed to be people guarding it from all directions in the dark. It was extremely tight.

Li Hantian threw away his raincoat and stretched out his hand to receive it, hanging it under the eaves of the veranda. Ji Tian Ning did not take off his bamboo hat. Worried that his identity would be revealed, he brought the bamboo hat into the room.

The skeleton followed closely behind her. Ji Tian Ning looked at the skeleton with some doubts. Earlier, when Hateful Sky recognized her, he didn't reveal her identity. Thus, he brought her here to make her feel at ease. It seemed like this Hu'er had never forgotten her kindness and would help her escape the Dragon City.

"This is where you live?" Is it safe? "

"Cough, cough …"

The skeleton coughed a few times, then its face turned red and it hurriedly let go of Ji Tian Ning's hand.

On the other hand, Ji Tian Ning didn't really mind. She was only shaking hands; what was there to be afraid of? However, she also understood that men and women were not allowed to casually interact with each other here.

He took off the bamboo hat on his head and hung it on his clothes rack. Since this skeleton had been following Li Hantian, Li Hantian did not let him leave.

Hateful Sky reached out to take the handkerchief and give it to Ji Tian Ning. Ji Tian Ning took it and wiped her face clean, revealing a slightly mischievous and charming smile.

"Greetings, young lady."

The skeleton knelt on one knee, lowered its head, and respectfully bowed.

Li Hantian also fell to one knee on the ground. At the same time, he lowered his head deeply and paid his respects to Ji Tian Ning.
