After pausing for a long while, he finally said, "Xue'er, in the past, I only had my heart set on Yu Wu. In order to obtain Yu Wu, I didn't even hesitate to use my status to force Tuo Wu to give her to me. Do you still have confidence?"

"Yes …" But I want you to answer me, do you still love Yu Wu? " She didn't mind who he once loved, as long as the person in his heart was her, she would be satisfied.

"After you descended from the sky and barged into my life, my feelings for Yu Wu slowly disappeared, little by little. I had known from the start that she and Yuwen Ta were the real couple, if it weren't for my absurd method back then, they wouldn't be acting so sneakily right now."

"Since you're willing to let go of Yu Wu because of my appearance, then I believe that the you from three years ago … no, that should be the you from five years ago. The you from five years ago … I believe that you'll fall in love with me the same way you do now, because you're my man …"

He really liked her last words. The big hand that held her hand tightened again as he looked at her with a pleading gaze: "Xue'er, repeat that last sentence again."

Cen Xue thought of what she had just said and her face revealed the shyness of a little girl. She muttered, "Because, you are my man …"

"Xue'er …"

Helian Lie excitedly hugged her tightly. His thin lips had long covered her red lips, and Cen Xue also responded warmly to his embrace. Her lips were interlocked, and all the differences between them had been melted by his kiss.

As his clothes faded, a pair of love-struck men and women were caught in the rain inside the Hibiscus Courtyard …

Cen Xue's face was bright red and her lips were slightly parted. Her bone-thin arms tightly wrapped around the man.

The two of them continued to linger around each other, but Cen Xue kept her calm as she embraced his neck and gasped, "Zhang Shan, don't be so stubborn anymore. For our future, just let me go, okay?"

Helian Shan saw the stubbornness in her eyes and knew that he could no longer stop her. Rather than what would happen tonight in the future, he might as well agree to her request.

"I'll decide after I talk to Dr. Kessler tomorrow." He wanted to know who those two noblemen were. Was it reliable or not?

Cen Xue happily kissed him. At the very least, he didn't oppose her like he did at the start. Since he was able to reach this stage, it meant that he had gradually started to compromise.

Helian Shan laid her down on the bed, trying to lure out a second wave of excitement.

"Boom …" The weakened Cen Xue was not as energetic as him and she was already panting from exhaustion. However, it seemed like Helian Lie was not willing to let her go.

Eastern Ou Country...

The Azure Dragon took Helian Shan's handwritten letter and gifts with him all night long to the East Wu, along the way, he thought of a lot of words and ways to tell her when he saw Chunyu.

This place was already at Dong Wu's level, he would be able to see her in a few days. Azure Dragon's heart was filled with anticipation, but he didn't know if she was doing well now. Was he still holding a grudge?

He only rested at the relay station for a few hours at night. As soon as the sky turned white, he immediately got up, packed his luggage, and quickly left.

At this moment, in Lou Lan Country, Helian Zhang was in the imperial study, talking to Hei Shite. He remembered Cen Xue's words very clearly. Who exactly were these two nobles?

"Doctor Kessler, can you tell me who your esteemed self is now?" Helian Lie had to ensure Cen Xue's safety before he would agree to her request.

They left last night before he could finish his sentence.

"In reply to the king, the Sky Eye can only see the recent developments of Imperial Concubine's situation, but it is not revealing the Heavenly Mystery. This old man only knows of these two people, but I have no way of figuring out who they are! "Your Highness, don't worry. When the imperial concubine returns, he'll definitely be able to meet Your Majesty safe and sound." It had always been a fortuitous opportunity that could not be revealed. Even if he did know about it, it would be hard for him to reveal it too much, let alone someone like Kesha who did not know about it.

He Lianlian frowned again. Recently, he had been troubled by a lot of things. Since he said so, he couldn't get anything out of him.

Last night, Xue'er's words had shaken his firm heart. Forget it, since it was like this, he could only choose to believe her and support her.

"Doctor Keser, then tell Gu Gu in detail what method you need to safely send Imperial Concubine back into the past. Is the method absolutely accurate?" One by one, the things that caused him to worry continued, and he was even more worried that Cen Xue would return to a year where he did not exist.

Heather stood up confidently and told Helian Shan the secret about the book. Although Mu Yue didn't want others to know about the existence of the book, she needed to use the book now. She couldn't keep this a secret from the king.

After Helian Lie heard these words, he came to a sudden realization. So that day at the blood pool, something like this happened. It turned out that his Xue'er possessed such powerful strength that she could interact with the Ancient Divine Mirror.

"Your Majesty, this is the only way to change the fate of those who have received a Gu curse. If Your Majesty insists on this, Hei Se will dare to continue, and will even secretly send Imperial Concubine away." Heather had expressed her position.

Helian Lie did not say anything. It seemed that he no longer had any choice. Heather, Mu Yue, Yu Wu, Yuwen Tuo, they all insisted on doing this. Even Xue'er was his.

"Fine, I'll agree to all of you, but only after the marriage ceremony." This was Helian Lie's only condition. He had to make Cen Xue his queen.

"Understood …"

He had no choice but to be convinced by Cen Xue, and he would never deny the words of Doctor Kessler. Since they were going to be together in the eyes of the heavens, he felt more at ease in his heart.

When Cen Xue found out about this news, she was excited for a long time. However, even after the excitement, she still had a trace of displeasure on her face.

Tomorrow night was the night of the 15th moon. She really couldn't bear to see him enter that ice-cold, pitch-black underground palace by himself. Especially since he didn't allow her to enter this time, then what should she do when he flared up?

Cen Xue pursued Helian Shan closely, but he was unwilling to tell her. He wanted to tell her to be at ease, as long as he could return to her side as soon as the sun rose.

His words were doubtful, but Helian Shan had not told her until the last moment.

After nightfall, Helian Lie comforted Cen Xue to sleep. While she was unprepared, he pressed down her sleeping point and ordered the Vermillion Bird to stay in the room tonight to protect Imperial Consort until his return.

"Wang, we've already sent him in." Zhao Chengde's voice sounded outside the door, reminding him that he was already prepared for tonight.

"Got it." Helian Zhang replied simply. He then took one last look at Cen Xue, who had been pressed to her sleeping spot on the bed, and turned around. He then turned on the mechanism and walked into the passage to the underground palace.

He quickly walked forward and was not affected in the slightest by the surrounding environment. He was already very familiar with this road as he walked back and forth every month.

Arriving at the door of the stone room, Helian Shan pushed open the stone door and looked inside. Zhao Changde's efficiency was indeed very high. A few steps away from the stone door lay a shabby looking woman.

The reason why Helian Zhang didn't kill her was because he thought of this, which was why he allowed her to live until today. After tonight, she would be useless!

Zhao Chang De simply threw Yu Fei onto the ground. Helian Lie did not move forward to move her, but sat beside the stone bed with his eyes closed, quietly waiting for that moment to come …

When the full moon was at its highest point, Helian Lie's eyes suddenly flashed with a blood-red light. His originally rosy face instantly lost all color, and he stood up with a pained expression, walking step by step towards the unconscious Yu Fei.

The moonlight tonight was very beautiful, but it was a pity that he couldn't bring Cen Xue along to enjoy the scenery. This was his greatest regret.

His snow-white neck was right next to hers. After he recalled his last moments with Cen Xue, he opened his mouth and bit into her neck with his fangs, sucking up her blood.

This fresh blood was far from being as sweet as Cen Xue's, causing him to pause for a moment. But the Gu worms in his body did not think this way, as the moment he stopped, his internal organs would feel a heart-wrenching pain, and those Gu worms seemed to want to break out from his abdominal cavity.

He once again bit her neck, and a steady stream of fresh blood entered his body. When the symptoms disappeared, Helian Lie immediately loosened his grip and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He did not like the smell of this woman.

Outside the door, Zhao Changde had been waiting for a long time. He estimated that the king had already enjoyed the end of the meal, so he probed from the outside, "Your majesty, do you want to dispose of that slut's corpse?"

"You guys can come in and take care of it." Helian Shan's cold voice came out.

"Understood …"

Zhao Chengde had the several eunuchs behind him extinguish their torches, and followed him inside. After following the king around for so many years, he was able to find some sense of direction.

Normally, Zhao Chengde would carry these people out and bury them with a sword to seal their throats. It seemed like this was the fate for Yufei today. Who told her to be unlucky enough to get involved with Bai Bingxuan, she deserved to die!

Tonight, Helian Shan was alone in the stone chamber. He thought of Cen Xue and hoped that she would have a good dream tonight …

The Vermillion Bird had been guarding her in her room the entire time. Suddenly, there was a series of hurried knocks on the door. The sky was about to brighten. What was this urgent matter?

She picked up the treasured sword on the table and walked up to open the door. Wen Qing knocked on the door, her face full of anxiety. After seeing the Vermillion Bird, she anxiously said, "Vermillion Bird Protector, something happened to Yu Chun Palace. Imperial Concubine Xiao died …"

The eunuch from Yu Chun Palace reported that Imperial Concubine Xiao suddenly had a relapse. Before Imperial Physician Yu and Doctor Keser could rush over, she had already left. It's a pity that such a kind-hearted person like Imperial Concubine Xiao …

"Alright, don't be sad. Go find Eunuch Zhao immediately and have him notify the king." The Vermillion Bird did not dare to leave this place, so it could only let Zhao Changde make a trip.

"Yes …" Wen Qing wiped her tears away and left.
