The light in Jiu Mu Li's eyes became sluggish after he was thrown to the ground, as she thoughtfully caressed her slightly swollen red lips, a strange look flashing across her eyes.

Regardless of her previous life or this life, she had always been brave and decisive. She never dragged her feet when doing things, and she would never say that she regretted it.

The light in Jiu Mu Li's eyes gradually dimmed.

She wanted to be a phoenix soaring over the nine heavens, but he wanted to break her wings.

"Miss, were you just drenched in the rain? Have some ginger soup to warm your body. " Bai Qing walked over with a steaming bowl of thick yellow soup, and a smile hung on her round face.

Jiu Mu Li took the bowl of ginger soup and finished it in one gulp. The soup gradually warmed her originally cold body.

There were many people and objects waiting for her protection.

"Bai Qing, what do you think the purpose of this training is?" Her voice was barely audible as she murmured softly.

Bai Qing packed up the dishes, and after hearing that, she stopped for a moment, and then smiled slightly: "The purpose of cultivation is to become stronger, and the ultimate goal is to protect the person you love."

This was the first time they met, and the girl who was trembling like she was sieve chaff. At this moment, her eyes were exceptionally bright.

Jiu Mu Li glanced outside and saw the rain falling. She nodded slowly. She trained only for the sake of pursuing the path of the strong, standing at the peak of the world, fighting all enemies and protecting her loved one.

The word love was too extravagant for her.

So, Qin Zheng, I'm sorry.

The rain outside the window drizzled and thunder rumbled, just like Qin Zheng's state of mind, which was filled with torrential rain. When he returned to his own bedroom, Director Chen immediately welcomed him with a smile. However, the smile on his face froze in the next second.

Qin Zheng's expression was extremely terrible. His face was green, and his gaze was gloomy. Her lips were still stained with blood, but at this moment, he was pursing her lips tightly, showing his master's unwell mood.

Time continued to pass minute by second, Director Chen only felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles as he watched this scene. Needless to say, only the Ninth Miss was able to strongly affect his emotions.

"It's getting late, do you want to eat, Your Highness? This servant is preparing to go now. " He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and found an excuse to slip away, trying to escape this calamity.

Qin Zheng's expression was terrifyingly sinister, his normally low and mellow voice had turned hoarse, "Wait."

Director Chen forced a smile and turned to face him, "What orders do you have for me?"

The man looked at the lines on the table and muttered to himself for a long time. Finally, when the stiff smile on Director Chen could no longer remain on his face, he said slowly, "Tell Nan Gong Xue Ji that he will start preparing for my Opening the Profound Vein tomorrow. This King cannot wait any longer. "

His narrow and long eyes were like that of a falcon's, faintly flickering with a harsh light. Recently, the Astral Souls was getting more and more restless. With his own strength, he could no longer suppress the Astral Souls. However, this was not the main reason why he was in such a hurry to achieve his goals.

In fact, was it because he couldn't wait? Instead, it was the Herba Amaryllis that was located in the capital, like a ticking time bomb, that would suddenly explode next to Jiu Mu Li's body at any time.

He was used to taking precautions, and he couldn't sit still and wait for death to come. He had to get rid of this hidden danger as soon as possible.

Even if Jiu Mu Li had all kinds of resistance towards him, the person he wanted to get her hands on, was not someone she could disobey! No matter what methods she used, in the end, she would make that girl obediently lie on the ground under his robe.

His heart shivered, he bowed and bowed even more respectfully, then turned and rushed back to Nan Gong Xue Ji's residence with big strides, out of the rain.

Amongst the extremely illusory descendents of the Fairy Doctor and the ignorant girl of unknown origins, he still chose the former.

He didn't know if he should sigh or laugh.

Although Nan Gong Xue Ji had a bit of scheming, her medical skills far surpassed that of the others. Otherwise, how could Your Highness leave this clown in front of his eyes?

That being said, Ninth Miss was afraid that he would be hurt.

The Purgatory flower of seven colors that he had painstakingly picked up had finally died for no reason.

Director Chen once again recalled the clear but firm eyes of the red-clothed girl back then. She didn't mind telling a huge lie, she was willing to do it for the sake of that tiny chance.

"What a pity." He held onto his wrist and sighed, a complex feeling flashed past his eyes, only then did he step into Nan Gong Xue Ji's palace.

Upon hearing that Qin Zheng agreed to let her use the Opening the Profound Vein s, Nan Gong Xue Ji was ecstatic. He immediately raised his chin proudly, "I want to use the hot spring in the palace to make a bath."

Undisguised arrogance permeated his tone.

If the Director Chen came to find him, that would mean:

Qin Zheng, gave up on Jiu Mu Li!

Director Chen lowered his eyes, covering the cold smile that flashed past them. He had stayed in this palace for most of his life, and he had long since seen through everything and seen through people's hearts. A girl with a heart higher than the sky like Nan Gong Xue Ji had her fate worse than paper.

However, this was the moment that he needed her. He would allow her to be proud of herself for a while longer.

Nan Gong Xue Ji lifted her snow-white lower jaw, her beautiful face without a trace of guilt. Although this method was not created by her, but proposed by that bitch Jiu Mu Li, but after studying it carefully for the past few days, she had already mastered and ground it out a lot of times. At that time, a slight modification would be enough to achieve the best effect.

Being able to be accepted by her Opening the Profound Vein, this could be considered Jiu Mu Li's fortune. Jiu Mu Li was born to be her concubine!

The moment he thought of how she would firmly grasp this method in his hands, she would definitely change all the people behind her to beg for a large sum of money. Thinking of that scene, Nan Gong Xue Ji's heart was filled with pride.

As long as Jiu Mu Li was eradicated, the world would only know that she was the true creator of this method!

Director Chen stood at the side and took in her every move, not missing out on the gloomy yet proud smile on her face.
