The sun was setting in the west. The moon climbed up the treetops, and the already restless heart was once again in turmoil, like a bunch of budding peach blossoms.

Zhou Xueying drew a world that belonged to him in her heart.

Under the bright moonlight and the fragrance of the flowers in the wind, a person would ride a small boat and row the blue waves into her heart.

Zhou Xueying, who was on the other side of the river, held onto the Xiang Rui, and looked into the distance.

Calm and unhurried.

Although the Li Shan also had green mountains and blue water, and the Li Shan's moonlight was even brighter, Zhou Xueying had always felt that it was a prison.

Yes, the Earthly Paradise that so many people yearned for was just a prison for her.

In the Earthly Paradise, there were many senior brothers that favored her, but she knew that they were not people that could be drawn into her heart.

Of course, it wouldn't be Yao Shisan.

This was because they had never met before.

He had heard that the man was a playboy.

Thus, they would not have any interactions in this lifetime, much less marry him.

Slowly, the moon started to rise higher and higher. The moonlight shone on Zhou Xueying's bloodstained clothes, dyeing it all cool and refreshing.

He lowered his head to ask about flowers, but the flowers said nothing. He looked up at the moon, but the moon was also speechless.

"Are you still going?"

Zhou Xueying stood there for a long time before she finally turned around and asked Luo Hao.

She naturally knew that someone was standing behind her, and Luo Hao did not intentionally disturb her, allowing her to change her opinion of him. At the very least, her words were no longer as cold.

However, her heart was cold, so no matter how she tried to hide it, the coldness in her voice was still there.

Luo Hao was startled for a moment. He had originally wanted to leave, but when someone asked him this question, he was at a loss of what to do.

Or perhaps, he felt that she was a little pitiful, even if Luo Hao didn't know why she was crying.

"Can we stay?"

The cold voice rang out once again.

"What?"

This time, Luo Hao asked without hesitation, because this question was enough to shock everyone.

Zhou Xueying let out a light breath, then said: "I want to ask for your help. I won't treat you unfairly after I'm done."

"I have my own things to do."

Luo Hao replied, but his tone revealed some discomfort.

Because he didn't like the way Zhou Xueying did things. She still treated Luo Hao as someone who had plans in mind, especially the words "I won't mistreat you afterwards".

Therefore, Luo Hao didn't ask what help he wanted him to help with and rejected her directly.

However, his rejection was not firm enough, because Zhou Xueying immediately found a gap between his words.

"What's the matter?"

"I already said before that I would return to the Hongwu."

"If you help me, I'll naturally send you back."

"You're sending me back?"

"I think you know about teleportation arrays, right? Given your current situation, it will take at least ten days to return to Hongwu. But if you help me, I'll only need an hour to send you back using the clan's teleportation circle. "

Luo Hao hissed, he knew about the teleportation circle, but he did not expect the Zhou Family to have it.

Teleportation Arrays could only be possessed by major powers under normal circumstances. This was because a teleportation array not only required a profound cultivation base, it also required a lot of spirit stones.

The Zhou Family had these two basic requirements, so it was not surprising for them to have a teleportation circle. It was just that Luo Hao did not know much about the gigantic Zhou Family.

"What do you want me to do?"

Luo Hao thought for a while and asked.

Luo Hao's expression was a little stiff, which was slightly different from his usual self. Even though Zhou Xueying's age was similar to his, they were still not familiar with each other.

Seeing Luo Hao's serious expression, Zhou Xueying could not help but laugh, and said: "Don't worry! "It's not like I'm asking you to kill someone. If it was anyone else, I wouldn't be able to get it."

Luo Hao's expression froze. Others were willing, but he might not be.

Because, he was Luo Hao, and that was all.

But, seeing Luo Hao staring blankly without saying a word, Zhou Xueying thought that she had tacitly agreed. After that, Zhou Xueying walked over to the group of Zhou family members by herself.

Luo Hao subconsciously followed after Zhou Xueying.

Then, he smiled wryly. He was the one who laughed, he never knew how to reject others.

Especially a beauty.

"This little girl is pretty aloof, in this aspect she's kind of similar to that girl Qiao Qingyun."

The Zhou family's people advanced a mile before choosing to camp out in the open. Just like last night, a fire was built.

The only difference was that Zhou Xueying was no longer sitting in the horse carriage, because Ye Tianxiong was sitting in the carriage. Since the end of the battle, he had been recuperating from her injuries and had not opened her eyes until now.

Zhou Xueying was fine with this, Ye Tianxiong's previous coachman identity was just a disguise. With his esteemed status in the Zhou family, she could totally accept this kind of treatment.

Luo Hao could still sit together with Zao Chuan previously, but Zao Chuan spoke a little less in front of him and there was a little more respect in his eyes.

This was an era where strength was revered, and Luo Hao's performance today was enough for Zao Chuan to produce such respect. Of course, other than Zao Chuan and the guards of the Zhou family, the way they looked at Luo Hao had also changed. They did not even look at him seriously, but now they were different.

However, there were still two people who did not think that way.

One was Zhou Xuan, his eyes were still filled with cold intent when he looked at Luo Hao, this kind of gaze was exactly the same as Zhou Xueying's.

There was also the servant Ling'er who was by Zhou Xueying's side. Only, she seemed to be hostile towards Luo Hao from the start.

As for why, Luo Hao didn't know either, but he couldn't help but sigh that women were indeed dangerous animals.

The cold wind woke the moon, and the red leaves dyed the green mountains. Other than that, there was also a black night sky embedded in the green mountain water.

The night gradually deepened. The night was suitable for dreaming, because the night itself was like a dream. Dreams were easy to shatter, so one woke up early.

Luo Hao opened his eyes and touched up his clothes. This set of clothes was given to him by Zao Chuan, and was initially dressed in grey, but Luo Hao favored white, so he changed it into a set of white clothes for him. The clothes were very clean, but it was a little tight.

It was already early in the morning but Luo Hao was still the first person to wake up.

Today, the Zhou family did not seem to be panicking at all. The group had just finished their breakfast and was ready to set off again.

Moreover, his speed today was clearly slower than yesterday. Maybe it was because Xitang wasn't too far away.

But it was indeed not far from there. After the procession had gone on for four or five hours, Luo Hao could faintly make out the gray contours of a building in front of him.

The flowers were blooming, the waters were green, and the flowers were fresh. The Xitang was a scene of prosperity.

However, the color of Xitang's houses was a little monotonous. Maybe it was done intentionally, but it really did not fit in with the beautiful scenery around them.

However, this would not affect the Xitang's position in the entire Lingxiao Kingdom, nor would it affect the Zhou family's rallying power.

Finally, the group entered the city. Not long after they entered the city, a large group of people came out to greet them. These people had been waiting here for several days at the behest of the Zhou clan head.

Zhou Xueying slowly got off the horse, and at the same time, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, Ye Tianxiong walked out, he smiled at Zhou Xueying, and leaned forward, looking very respectful to Zhou Xueying. Zhou Xueying returned the salute, and then turned around to look at the city where the noise was.

This city was the third largest city in Lingxiao Kingdom, so of course its population was huge.

At the same time, there were also many passers-by looking at the same direction. However, Zhou Xueying did not care about them at all, as she was looking at a certain direction, that was the Zhou Mansion.

Her eyes immediately revealed a lot of information, including longing and unfamiliarity. After all, she hadn't come back for a few years, and standing in this city right now was like a dream.

Just then, a horse slowly walked through the crowd at the back of the welcoming party. It stopped a few metres away from Zhou Xueying.

It was a man dressed in purple just like Zhou Xuan, but compared to Zhou Xuan, this man gave off a slightly more noble aura. He had a very straight nose, which made people who looked at him feel that he was extraordinary.

The man smiled at Zhou Xueying. His smile was really pretty, even more beautiful than a woman's.

But Zhou Xueying did not have much of an expression, and did not speak immediately.

"What is it? "Aren't you happy to see me?"

The man got down from the horse, walked to Zhou Xueying's side, and then patted her head and smiled.

"Brother."

Zhou Xueying spat out one word.

That's right, this person was Zhou Xueying's older brother, Zhou Chuanning.

"She has grown taller and prettier as well."

"Am I not beautiful?"

Zhou Xueying looked up and asked.

The two of them looked at each other. Zhou Chuanning was startled, then the two of them smiled at each other.

If Luo Hao was here, he would definitely think it was strange, because he thought Zhou Xueying would never laugh.

However, compared to this, he felt that Zhou Chuanning was even weirder.

Of course, Luo Hao did not see it, because the moment he entered the city, he was brought to a restaurant by a guard of the Zhou Family.

As for the reason, Luo Hao did not ask, since this was their territory, of course it would be up to the owner to decide.

But she didn't seem to think of herself as a guest!

Then what was he exactly?

Her savior?

But he himself did not help, in that case Luo Hao only did it to protect himself.

Did she invite him to help her?

even more impossible, because Luo Hao had never thought of becoming the follower of some kind of force. He had his own clear goal and had never lived for anyone else, he lived for himself.

For the Zhou family … He should only be considered a passerby!

Although Luo Hao felt that it was strange to be arranged to stay in the restaurant, but he was satisfied, because he was going to do something and he did not want to do it in the Zhou Mansion – he was going to have a breakthrough.

Since the previous time he broke through in the Xunyao Mausoleum, Luo Hao had engaged in several battles, and the few times were when he narrowly escaped death. This level of battle was obviously very beneficial to cultivation, and Luo Hao also gained some comprehension after these few battles, he could clearly feel that he was only a single layer of distance away from the Soul Strengthening Realm. More accurately speaking, he had already quickly entered the Soul Strengthening Realm during that night in the Xunyao Mausoleum.

As a result, after the Zhou family guard had arranged everything, Luo Hao walked straight into the room.
