"Luoxue, thank you!" Tuoba Hong's eyes flashed with excitement. Ever since Tuoba Yu's incident, this was the first time Tuoba Hong had revealed such an excited expression. He had never been this happy even when he had obtained mountains and rivers from the North Qi.

Yue Luoxue regretted her reaction just now, but didn't want to disappoint Tuoba Hong either. She said: "That's true, no one knows what will happen in the future, so we are still friends right?"

It was not that Tuoba Hong didn't know what Yue Luoxue meant, even if the outcome was unknown, she still treated him as a friend now, a mere friend.

It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed, but at least Yue Luoxue did not refuse him without any hesitation, which was already a huge improvement for him.

After a moment of silence, Yue Luoxue opened her mouth and said: "Tuoba Hong, now that you are already an emperor of the North Qi, I'm preparing to return with King Xuan."

Because of Tuoba Yu, Yue Luoxue originally did not plan to leave so quickly, but what happened today made her realize that Tuoba Hong's obsession towards her might not be a good thing.

That was why she thought she could keep her distance from him. When other women came into his life, she might die.

"Can't you just leave?" Tuoba Hong stared at Yue Luoxue for a long time before finally opening his mouth.

He really didn't want her to go.

The hand inside Yue Luoxue's sleeve couldn't help but tighten, and her mind was filled with Tuoba Yu's voice — — Help me take care of Big Brother and Mother …

"I …"

"War Emperor, this king's body has not completely recovered yet. As this king's personal doctor, Luoxue probably cannot stay in the North Qi." Just as Yue Luoxue was about to agree, another voice rang out from the side.

Nalan Rongxuan was dressed in snow-white robes as he sat on the eaves of a house. One of his legs was hanging in the air while the other leg was slightly bent and stepped on the eaves.

Seeing the two of them looking at him, his figure flashed and appeared by Yue Luoxue's side. He did not avoid Tuoba Hong at all, which made even Yue Luoxue a little surprised.

"King Xuan is such a good martial artist, I really can't see anything that looks like he has some sort of illness."

From the night that Nalan Rongxuan barged into Tuoba Hong's camp, Tuoba Hong had already known that Nalan Rongxuan could cultivate, and that he was an expert at it. Thinking back to how everyone thought that Nalan Rongxuan was extremely weak in their hearts, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, Nalan Rongxuan's ability to endure humiliation was stronger than his, and he had actually lied to everyone for so many years.

Nalan Rongxuan unhurriedly tidied up the slightly messy clothes. Today, he was dressed in luxurious but very complicated formal attire, but it did not seem complicated when worn on his body.

"The War Emperor must be joking, Rongxuan has been weak since childhood, and even though he looks great now, he doesn't know when he'll actually die. If not for the doctor, Rongxuan wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully tonight."

A handsome figure that was like an immortal, elegantly and slowly spoke the words that he could die at any moment, but Yue Luoxue listened somewhat harshly. What did this fellow mean, was it possible for him to curse him to death like that?

Her pretty face immediately tensed up, and her tone was filled with anger and dissatisfaction: "Nalan Rongxuan, I already said that I won't let you die, yet you still said that you died one at a time, you're purposely angering me right?"

However, Nalan Rongxuan did not care about Yue Luoxue's anger at all, and even had a slight smile on her face: "Of course not, but if you had stayed, I might really have died."

The Red Lotus Fire Gu in Nalan Rongxuan's body was like a ticking time bomb. Although she had sealed the Red Lotus Fire Gu now, anyone who possessed a mother Gu could still forcefully activate it and awaken them.

To a certain extent, Nalan Rongxuan's life was in danger at all times.

Tuoba Hong never thought that Nalan Rongxuan actually hid the fact that he knew how to cultivate, but that sickly body was not an illusion. He believed in Yue Luoxue, and Yue Luoxue's expression and words told him that Nalan Rongxuan was truly sick, and really sick!

Biting her lips, Yue Luoxue could only say to Tuoba Hong: "Tuoba Hong, I have to go. If there's anything that I need your help with, I'll do my best."

Nalan Rongxuan being lenient with Tuoba Hong had displeased him, but when he thought about the meaning behind her words, his heart became a lot more balanced.

Tuoba Hong looked deeply at Yue Luoxue, and suddenly smiled: "Alright, as long as you don't forget that you have a friend like me."

Yue Luoxue was still the Tuoba Hong of the past. She would never force her or put any pressure on her, so she was completely different from the abnormal Nalan Rongxuan. He immediately revealed a smile and said, "That's only natural, unless I lose my memories, I will definitely not forget this friend of yours!"

Tuoba Hong smiled in satisfaction, but Nalan Rongxuan's expression started to darken.

"Luoxue, if you want to return, you can come back. It's still as I said, my harem will always be open for you, so even if it's not for me, you should come back and visit Yu'er often." Tuoba Hong's expression was extremely serious, as he looked at Yue Luoxue without blinking, without giving her the slightest chance to avoid her gaze.

Yue Luoxue had indeed intended to avoid this at the beginning, but after hearing Tuoba Yu's name, how could she possibly avoid it? No matter what kind of relationship she had with Tuoba Hong, she still owed him.

Nalan Rongxuan frowned almost inaudibly as he reached out to pull Yue Luoxue over and lightly said: "Today is the day of the War Emperor's ascension, so leaving the seat might not be good for too long. War Emperor, you should return earlier."

Tuoba Hong's gaze swept past the two's interlocked hands. Yue Luoxue was clearly resisting, and a faint understanding and smile flashed across her face as she looked at Nalan Rongxuan meaningfully: "Thank you King Xuan for the reminder, but we also want to remind King Xuan that a forcefully twisted melon isn't sweet."

With that, Tuoba Hong turned and left. Nalan Rongxuan's good mood had been reduced, and Tuoba Hong continued to mock him for forcing Yue Luoxue to "show off his love"!

"Hey, there's no one watching anymore, why aren't you letting me go!" Yue Luoxue frowned, slightly dissatisfied.

However, Nalan Rongxuan acted as if he did not hear it, and pulled Yue Luoxue along as he walked in the opposite direction: "There's no point in going back now, why not go back and pack up, we'll leave early tomorrow morning."

"No, I haven't said goodbye to Aunt Fang and Ah Hua!" Yue Luoxue resisted, thinking that Nalan Rongxuan had turned gentle, and in just a few days, he had begun to reveal his true form.

Nalan Rongxuan opened his mouth, and said with an unquestionable tone: "Then I'll give you one night's worth of time."

"Nalan Rongxuan, this is my personal matter! If you can't wait any longer, then leave first! " Yue Luoxue was truly a little angry.

Nalan Rongxuan helplessly and lovingly sighed, and said slowly: "Then, just give me one night's time."

Yue Luoxue was a little confused, she was pulled by Nalan Rongxuan to the guest room, but seeing that Nalan Rongxuan was actually dragging him to his guest room, Yue Luoxue immediately became anxious: "Hey, Nalan Rongxuan, we better not say anything, okay?"

Halfway through speaking, she recalled Nalan Rongxuan's methods of "punishing" her and immediately blushed and changed her words: "If you have anything to say, just say it, I'm not going to your room."

Who knew what this black pervert would do if he pulled her in? It wasn't the first time she suffered a loss. If she didn't teach him a lesson now, she would mourn in silence.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you." Seemingly knowing what Yue Luoxue was worried about, Nalan Rongxuan promised solemnly.

Yue Luoxue, on the other hand, doubted his character. Yue Luoxue used her bitter experience as a reference and was determined to not enter.

Nalan Rongxuan sighed somewhat helplessly, and lowered his voice, as he said with a slow and gentle voice, "Good girl, I have something for you."

Yue Luoxue was shocked by Nalan Rongxuan's gentle appearance and tone. While he was still in a daze, he was pushed away by Nalan Rongxuan and took the opportunity to enter the room.

"Nalan Rongxuan, you can't …"

Yue Luoxue's voice stopped abruptly after hearing the light in the room. She blinked her eyes, then blinked.

Yue Luoxue seriously suspected that she entered some kind of treasure pavilion?

In front of him was still a bedroom. He saw all sorts of rare treasures, each of them priceless. For example, the screen in front of him had a fine snow-white wood frame, and the embroidered threads were all precious snow silk.

For example, the blood bead on the table, was definitely a rare treasure that was hard to come by. There were also many pills, medicine and other items that Yue Luoxue was dazzled by the sight.

Yue Luoxue was truly confused. What did she mean by showing off her treasures in Tuoba Hong's territory? Or were these things stolen by Nalan Rongxuan?

had just ascended the throne, he needed to stabilize the court. Money was something that could not be left for the future, and if Nalan Rongxuan used such a despicable method, she definitely had to vent his anger on Tuoba Hong's behalf.

"Do you like it?"

Just as Yue Luoxue was about to interrogate him, Nalan Rongxuan spoke softly, his tone concealing his anticipation.

Yue Luoxue became even more suspicious, she looked up and down at Nalan Rongxuan, then at the treasures that filled the room, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Hey, what are you trying to do?"

"These are all for you. Do you like them?" Nalan Rongxuan directly explained.

This time, Yue Luoxue was truly shocked. She had never thought of this possibility!

"What kind of expression is that?" Nalan Rongxuan was a little frustrated. This little fox loved money, so when it saw so many treasures, shouldn't its eyes light up?

Yue Luoxue blinked her eyes. She didn't know what kind of expression she had on her face because of him. She just randomly picked up a room of treasures and then gave it to him for no reason, so she wasn't mentally prepared at all.

It was said that if you don't have anything to do, then you just have to be a thief. Nalan Rongxuan was so good at scheming, so why would she dare to give his such a bunch of things?

"Hey, Nalan Rongxuan, you can't be wanting me to do something, right? "Let me tell you, I have my principles. Even if you were to bribe me with so many things, I wouldn't do it if you were to touch my principles …"

"Yue Luoxue!" Nalan Rongxuan's face darkened as he listened.

Yue Luoxue nodded her head quickly: "Listen, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

It made the veins on Nalan Rongxuan's temples throb with anger, but he was unable to release his temper. He took a deep breath and said slowly, "Xia Yunfan has something for you, but I have never seen you being so suspicious before."

Yue Luoxue was stunned once again. How did this guy know that Xia Yunfan gave her a present?

Wait, a gift? Could it be that these gifts were only prepared because she accepted Xia Yunfan's gifts, and Nalan Rongxuan felt that they were unbalanced?

This, this... Wasn't this too much of a test for her EQ?

blurted out. "Nalan Rongxuan, are you jealous?"
