"Xue'er, close your eyes. It might hurt a little later." Helian Lie urged her to close her eyes.

Hearing his words, Cen Xue closed her eyes. At some point, Helian Lie's hand had solidified into a ball of fire. It seemed to be faintly discernible, but it didn't seem like a flame at all?

A pair of pitch black eyes stared at the fair skin on Cen Xue's chest. Her brows furrowed as she imprinted the flame in her palm onto Cen Xue's skin. In that instant, Cen Xue felt a sharp pain … "Ah!

A wave of burning pain came, but she soon felt a wave of coldness. Cen Xue couldn't help but open her eyes to see what Helian Shan was doing.

The ball of fire from before had already disappeared. It was as if another force was gathering in his palm as it continuously poured into the flame mark on her chest, causing her to feel even more comfortable.

"Li, what did you do to me?" Cen Xue curiously asked her.

Helian Shan looked at the natural state of the imprint. If he had not personally branded it for her, Cen Xue would have thought that he was born with it.

This is my mark, the Seal of Fire. In the entire Lou Lan Country, only the four great guards have this special honor to have my exclusive mark on you. I have imprinted this mark on your body with my own power. His voice was gentle, and everything was arranged for her.

Cen Xue nodded her head and excitedly hugged his neck, "Zhang Shi, if you want to believe me, I will definitely return to your side."

"I will wait for you all my life. I will wait for you to come back to me …" Absorbing the familiar smell from her body, Cen Xue ignored her naked body and hugged him tightly.

She felt that his desire could not be clearer as to how he wanted to continue. Her hands slowly slid into his clothes as she drew circles on his clothes in a spoiled manner …

"Xue'er, your body isn't in a good condition right now. If you don't control yourself a little, you're just playing with fire. Do you know?" Helian Lie grabbed her small hands that were drawing circles, and said with extremely uneven breathing.

"I want to play with fire on you, so what can you do?" Cen Xue didn't want him to continue enduring it. It was a very painful thing for a man to endure it.

Helian Lie had recently hooked up a smile. Never would he have imagined that his little thing would have such a passionate side to it. Since that was the case, he wouldn't be polite …

"Ah …" Following Cen Xue's joyful exclamation, the two people in the warm room had long ago overlapped each other and their clothes had long left their bodies. They were currently lying quietly on the ground …

Three days later, Xiao Ling'Er's matter had already come to an end. Yesterday, Duo-Feather had specifically come to find her, and the two had chatted for a long time. It was time to start the journey.

"Your Majesty, in this old man's opinion, we should hurry up and send the queen away by the fifteenth of next month." Inside the imperial study, all the people who were supposed to be there were gathered, discussing when they would depart.

Helian Shan sat on the Golden Lacquer Dragon throne and did not answer for a long time. He turned his head to look at Cen Xue beside him, trying to get an answer from her face.

Cen Xue also looked at him at the same time. The two of them looked at each other, but neither of them spoke a word.

"There's no need to rush. I think we should wait for the Azure Dragon to return before setting off!" The one who spoke was Yuwen Tuo. He continued, "Like last time, Boyi and I will stay in the palace and be escorted out by the Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise. The White Tiger will leave behind the Imperial Guard.

Although there were many things that she couldn't bear to part with, there was no other choice!

"I wonder when the Azure Dragon Guards will return?" Heather did not oppose Yuwen Tuo's suggestion. However, the Azure Dragon had already left for Dongwu for eight to nine days. He did not know when it would return.

Yuwen Tuo gave Dan Yu Wu a reassured look and replied, "Two days ago, I received a messenger pigeon from the Azure Dragon. I believe that the Azure Dragon will be back in two days!"

In two days time, that's fine too. He can also do some preparation.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Helian Lie tightly held Cen Xue's hand under the table and channeled his power into her hand.

"Since that's the case, we'll wait for the Azure Dragon Guards to return to the palace before we head on our way. As for Doctor Kessler, Elder Mu Yue, and Yu Wu, all of you, prepare yourselves. What do you need to bring?" In fact, he didn't even want to leave so early.

"Understood …"

The three of them said in unison. Actually, they didn't need to bring the things that they wanted. The things that they needed were all in the Sacred Moon Sect.

The Azure Dragon had already traveled for several days. Yesterday, he had already entered the borders of Lou Lan's country and was galloping back towards the capital at top speed!

As long as he thought that Ruojian was still waiting for him in Dong Wu, his heart would become even more anxious, afraid that he would miss the promised time.

This was the temporary palace that Helian Lie had specially repaired for her. Although the two of them had not yet held the coronation ceremony, Helian Shan had already issued an imperial edict. She was the queen, the master of this place!

Helian Lie held her hand and led her around, accompanying her as she fed the fish at the edge of the pond. Watching the pairs of fish, they sometimes also thought that they were a pair of fish that could play in the water without worry and could be together with their beloved partner forever.

"Xue'er, I wish that we could be together for the rest of our lives." Helian Shan embraced her unwillingly. Every second that passed, he would feel some fear.

Fear of the days when he lost her, fear of being alone …

Dang, I also want to be together with you forever, but this is our fate, if you weren't under the effects of the Gu, I think maybe the heavens would not have arranged for me to come to your side, this is fate, so this time's departure, was also arranged by the heavens. Don't be in such a happy mood, think that we will still be together in the future, it's only temporary! Cen Xue turned her head to look at his lonely expression. Instantly, she felt very uncomfortable in her heart. If this were to continue, she might change her mind.

Helian Lie nodded. He only nodded and did not speak …

Cen Xue slowly sprinkled the fish into the pond. A group of golden carp came over to her side as they fought over the food.

Helian Shan hugged her tightly as if he was afraid that she would fall into the pond. However, Cen Xue was having a lot of fun and very soon, she finished scattering all the fish in her bag.

"Alright, let's go back." The fish in the pond had all eaten their fill, and all of them swam away in pairs. They looked at the sky, but it was no longer early.

"Mm, let's go. Be careful." Helian Lie gently reminded her. He carefully protected her by her side and held her hand as they walked away one step at a time.

The sunset glow had already risen up into the sky, forming various shapes. The color was like a big fire that set the clouds ablaze. When she was young, she learnt a lesson called "Burning Cloud", which was about the sunset glow in front of Cen Xue's eyes.

The two of them did not sit on the soft couch. Helian Lie held her hand all the way as he strolled back to Xingqing Palace. He even dismissed the palace maids and eunuchs behind him as he enjoyed the world of the two.

Although the sunset glow at the horizon was beautiful, it was inferior to the beauty of the woman beside him …

At this moment, Cen Xue turned her head and was about to call out to him. In that instant, the tip of their noses touched, and there was a very thin gap between their lips. As long as they moved slightly, their lips would be close together.

With such a beautiful sight, Helian Shan took the initiative to tighten the arm at her waist and once again pulled the distance between the two of them closer. That distance that was originally within reach had already been replaced by a warm kiss.

From time to time, a court lady would pass by from afar. Seeing the King and Queen being so fond of each other, they all ran away, blushing.

Immersed in sweet happiness, Cen Xue hoped that this moment would stop forever, leaving her and her love at this moment of greatest happiness, forever and ever …

Two days later, Azure Dragon's fast horse appeared under the city gate tower. After six days of travelling, he finally returned to Lou Lan Country. He rushed into the palace, eager to report his marriage to the king.

Helian Lie must be exhausted after seeing Li Yao's travel worn out return. In order to stall for time, he asked Zhao Changde to send him back to rest for the night, and to come back tomorrow!

The Azure Dragon was not idle. When he returned, he found someone to write a betrothal gift slip. When the King of the next day opened his golden mouth, he would immediately start preparing.

The next day, when the king was ready, he was already waiting at the entrance of the imperial study. Seeing how anxious he had been yesterday, it seemed that the Azure Dragon and that girl were about to get lucky.

"Azure Dragon, follow me in." Helian Shan passed by him and ordered.

"Yes …"

Helian Shan sat on the dragon throne and looked at the green dragon that was a few steps away from him. He asked, "How is it? Do you have something you want to tell me? "

"Wang... The Azure Dragon can't hide anything from the King. This time, the Azure Dragon went to live in the Crown Prince's Palace, and secretly engaged to the third princess of the Kingdom of Dongwu. In this life, I will not marry anyone, I hope the King will grant my wish! " The Azure Dragon did not hesitate and directly opened his mouth.

Private Engagement... He did not expect the Azure Dragon to be so quick, but this was also the reason why Helian Shan wanted him to go to Dong Wu City. He had already expected the result.

"From now on, give the Green Dragon the title of Grand General of the Hussars and personally write a marriage proposal for you. I believe that the Eastern Alliance will not reject Ruo Ling marrying you as the Grand General's wife!" With these words, Helian Lie began to write a letter.

The Azure Dragon did not expect the king to agree so readily, and even gave him the title of Grand Marshal?

"Thank you, my lord, for your grace …"

"However, Azure Dragon, you have to let go of your marriage. Tomorrow, I will have the envoy bring a marriage proposal and a betrothal gift to go to Dong Wu City and settle this matter. As for you, you have to follow me to the Everlasting Mountain!" After finishing the last stroke, he looked at his own letter and instructed the Azure Dragon.

Although Azure Dragon was a little disappointed, he hoped that Ruo Ling would forgive him. However, he did not understand why he suddenly had to go to the Everlasting Mountain.

"My lord, why is it so sudden?" He could not help but ask.

"Release the curse …"

Helian Shan didn't say too much to him. He only coldly said two words!
