For the past few days, Ji Tian Ning had been living in a daze. She didn't think about how the Fiery Inverted Scale would deal with her and torture her. In his heart, he actually hoped that the reverse scale of fire would torture her to death.

That way, she would be able to be together with Hate, and not have to be separated forever.

Sometimes it was cold, sometimes it was hot. She no longer took any medicine, or else she would just die like that. She might be able to travel back to her own world. At the very least, he could be with Hateful Heavens.

Someone was feeding her a medicinal liquid. The bitter medicinal liquid entered her mouth, but she did not refuse to drink it. She didn't want to ask what kind of medicine it was, nor did she want to open her eyes to see who was taking care of her.

"Tian Tian …"

While he was unconscious, he could only whisper a name, calling passionately. She could feel him at her side, never leaving.

Le Tian sadly lowered his head. It was unknown just how many times he had heard her affectionately call out the name of Li Hen Tian. Only now did he finally understand that there was already a different man in her heart. He now understood why the emperor had to kill Li Hantian.

There was no man that would allow a woman he loved. There were other men in his heart, especially since this man was the Emperor of the Southern Champion.

A fiery-red figure appeared in front of the couch, the hand hidden within his sleeve quietly clenching. Even when she was unconscious, she still affectionately called out the name of that Hu'er.

"Your servant greets Your Majesty. I don't know how rude Your Majesty has been. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The reverse fire scale didn't say a word as it gloomily stared at Ji Tian Ning, who was even more frail and haggard. Why was it that the name she was calling out to was not his name? Even though his name was taboo and no one was allowed to call him directly, she had always had this privilege and could call him directly by his name in private.

Even if that Hu'er died, she would still miss him so much. Even if she was unconscious, was she thinking about him?

Had something happened between them that he could not bear to see happen? Had they already been sworn enemies and formed a relationship with each other?

If that was the case, if she had already given Li Hantian, how could he accept the fact that he would leave her by his side as his woman?

He clenched his fists tightly. These few days, he had been taking medicine and acupuncture. His illness had been controlled and his emotions had stabilized. He could basically control his emotions and was no longer often manic. However, when he heard Ji Tian Ning mumbling the name Li Hen Tian while he was unconscious, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.

Looking at the delicate and sickly look on her face, she suppressed the anger in her heart with great difficulty, turned around, and left in large strides. He had wanted to be by her side, to look at her face in silence, to remember those brief and beautiful times.

After hearing Ji Tian Ning call out Hateful Sky's name, and how intimate it was, he no longer had the mood to do so.

"Wu De, pass down the decree that we are going to set off."

Rubbing his temples, it had become a habit of his. Regardless of whether his head was in pain or not, he would rub this place from time to time to remind himself to be awake and to control his emotions.

"Understood."

If not for the delay of these two days, they would have already left.

"Lord Manager, where do you want to go?" "The Empress's body can't bear the bumpy weather, nor can it stand the cold."

"Who would dare to go against the emperor's decree? I have already prepared a carriage for the Empress, with a thick mattress and a brocade blanket for her, and a stove." Two maids have already been assigned from the palace to accompany the Empress. You will follow behind the carriage and take care of the Empress at any time. "

Le Tian bowed and left. He knew that he couldn't stop them and could only try his best to take care of Ji Tian Ning.

Someone carried Ji Tian Ning onto the carriage. Fortunately, the carriage was surrounded by a brocade and a stove was still burning. Thus, the temperature inside the carriage wasn't too different from the inside of the carriage. The two maidservants who had been assigned from the palace had no idea what they were here for. Only now did they arrive at Ji Tian Ning's carriage, instructing them to wait upon it attentively.

None of them knew who Ji Tian Ning was, and none of them knew who she was. So, they were ordered not to ask, but to do their job and not to speak.

Le Tian also got on the carriage, worriedly looking at the still unconscious Ji Tian Ning. Three days had passed, but her condition was still constantly changing, causing him to be extremely worried.

"Tumbledown …"

The horse carriage drove off and the Fiery-Scaled Tiger sat in another carriage. It opened the window and turned around to look at Ji Tian Ning's carriage. A cold wind blew in through the window, making him feel a chill.

"Just how far have she and Hateful Sky reached?"

He was still brooding over this matter in his heart, unable to let it go even though Hateful Sky had confessed to him in the past and the relationship between him and Ji Tianning was innocent. However, he saw that Ji Tian Ning was also shouting the name Hateful Heavens while she was unconscious. The affection between the two of them was obviously very deep.

The most unforgettable thing was Ji Tian Ning's final kiss to Hateful Heavens. At that time, Li Hantian was already an ice-cold corpse, yet she kissed him in front of the crowd without any scruples.

He closed the window and sat in the carriage. His face was gloomy as he leaned against the wall of the carriage and closed his eyes to rest. The direction of the army was to go straight to Fengyuan, and now that Fengyu had been captured, the Shoulder King urged several times to increase the number of troops, with the intention of gaining more benefits from Fengyuan. As a result, he did not hesitate to lead his men to the battlefield.

"How much longer do I have left?" I hope that the Heavens will be merciful and that we only need a few more years. "

In January of the year 346 of the Yunmeng calendar, the Southern Champion Emperor personally led Fengyuan, bringing up two hundred thousand soldiers. From the Southern Champion City's Ancestral Dragon, he headed straight for Fengyuan.

In January of the year 346 of the Yunmeng calendar, after Shang Qiuyuan captured Fenggong, he went down to five cities, consolidating his fertile defensive line and placing it in the territory of the Southern Champion.

Several princes sent out their envoys to contact Qiuyuan, intending to obtain the assistance of Shangqiu Yuan and ascend the throne of the emperor of Fengyuan. Shang Qiuyuan pretended to be perfunctory on the surface, secretly sending out several great armies in the name of the King Shoulder Emperor. They assaulted the cities without the slightest hesitation.

At this point, Fukuhara people panic, do not know who will become Fukuhara's master.

As for the other four countries, Yun Meng had announced to the world that she was the ruler of the world, so she requested for the Southern Champion to release the troops and for Yun Meng to deal with Fengyuan. Yunmeng intended to support the original Crown Prince succession, in order to justify the acceptance of Fengyuan.

However, the Shoulder Emperor had declared his intention to support the ninth prince's succession, as well as supporting the ninth prince in the name of his country.

However, Shang Qiuyuan secretly kept a close eye on the Sixth Prince, intending to support him. The Sixth Prince also agreed to serve as a subordinate state to the Southern Champion. At this time, in order to fight for the throne of Fengyuan, the princes each displayed their abilities and did not hesitate to betray Fengyuan's interests, seeking the support of other countries and powers.

They understood that if they relied solely on their own strength, no one would be able to be the emperor of Fengyuan. Only by relying on their own side would they be able to ascend to the throne.

Usually, a prince would openly or covertly interact with several other forces to gain benefits from them.

Due to the uncertainty of the various kingdoms, the princes were worried. Their hair was white in color. This Fengyuan had lost most of his hope, but the throne was still empty. They didn't know that there was still no hope for him to ascend to the throne of the Emperor.

Northern barbarians and Jinghai had also expressed their support for a certain prince. However, these kingdoms had spread word that they were supporting the second prince, and had changed their minds to support the other princes.

Feng Yuan had already become a pile of loose sand. If the other princes sincerely cooperated and wholeheartedly restored Feng Yuan's governance, they might be able to retain half of Feng Yuan and elect an emperor.

However, the princes all had their own plans in their hearts. None of them was willing to become someone else's official. They wanted to become the emperor themselves, so they all split up and fought with each other.

Shang Qiuyuan took this opportunity to secretly help the Second Prince and the Sixth Prince at times, allowing them to kill each other and reap the greatest benefits.

Even if he and the King Shoulder each supported a different prince, it would also be a ploy to provoke a fight between the princes. The intention was for them to kill each other so that they could obtain Fengyuan without any bloodshed.

The pitiful short-sighted princes who were vying for the throne were blinded by ambition. They were unable to see that such a scheme was still going on, and they were still vying for the throne with their brothers.

Yunmeng's awe-inspiring righteousness clearly meant that Fengyuan territory should be taken over by Yunmeng. As for the other three countries, how could they not have these kinds of thoughts? The reason why they were showing indecision was because they wanted to exhaust the strength of several princes. When they lost their strength, they could occupy their territory in one go.

Shang Qiuyuan's gaze, however, was fixated on the princes. Currently, only these princes of the Imperial Family were unrestrained and unrestrained. What he wanted was neither the territory nor the fame, but the lives of those princes. He wanted the Feng family, and not a single person could escape. This was to pay tribute to the hundred thousand soldiers who fell on the battlefield after being framed to their deaths.

The other dukes knew that their strength was limited, so they buried their heads in Feng Yuan to seize some benefits and expand their strength and territory for future consideration.

At this time, Huo Ni Lin had no choice but to send out his troops to reinforce the army, in order to seize the greatest benefits in Fengyuan.

The Southern Champion already held an absolute advantage in Fengyuan. If they added more troops at this moment, they could become the biggest beneficiary of this war.

While he was swaying, the sound of the carriages and horses echoed in his ears. Ji Tian Ning vaguely felt that he had stopped and continued moving forward. Sometimes she would wake up and be woodenly served with food and medicine, and then go back to sleep.

Most of the time, she was still unconscious, as if she wanted to make up for all the sleep in her life.

After advancing for several days, the reverse scale sent out a vanguard force to speed up the march towards Fengyuan, and he led the way at the back. In order to prevent Ji Tian Ning from getting tired from being too rough, their speed wasn't very fast.

He felt an indescribable pain in his heart. If he could bind her by his side, the price would be for her to turn into a withered flower. How would he choose?

"Tian Tian …"

He had always met her in his dreams, causing her to not want to wake up from her dream. Because she had left her dream, she could no longer feel his gentleness and love.

Even though this was just a dream, she would rather lose herself in it and enjoy the rare enchantment and warmth.

His embrace was still warm as usual, and the faint scent of incense entered her nostrils, causing her to feel at ease.

What she did not know was that these few nights, the embrace she had hugged was the reverse scale of fire, not the sky of hatred in her dreams. And every time she unwittingly murmured to herself, it was like a sharp knife stabbing into the heart of the reverse fire scale.

He tightly embraced Ji Tian Ning in his embrace and warmed her with his own body. He wished that this moment could last forever. It was just that the occasional call did not come from him.

Helplessness and pain arose from the bottom of his heart. Even though he was the noble ruler of a country, he was unable to obtain her heart.
