"This subordinate obeys the decree …"

The Azure Dragon immediately knelt down on one knee. Compared to his marriage, there was nothing more important in this world than the king removing the Gu curse.

"Make some preparations and have the Ministry of Rites prepare some betrothal gifts for you. You can choose the envoy yourself." Helian Lie left his own matters to him.

"Many thanks, Your Majesty …"

After a conversation in the study room, the decree to bestow him the title of Azure Dragon soon spread throughout the room. Joy filled the room, and many officials were prepared to curry favor with him.

But how could the Azure Dragon have the leisure to deal with them? He personally selected one of the most knowledgeable civil servants by Xiao Boyi's side to be his envoy to propose marriage, and also asked the envoy to hand his letter to Ruo Ruo's hand. He hoped that she would forgive him, and that he would personally marry her when he returned from Everlasting Mountain!

Outside of the Black Tortoise Sect, several luxurious carriages had been quietly guarding the entrance for a long time. Today, they were leaving for the Everlasting Mountain!

Helian Shan and Cen Xue sat in the same carriage, Dancing Single Feather and Mu Yue sat in the same carriage, and Korsor sat in the same carriage with his treasures. The Azure Dragon was leading the way while the Vermillion Bird and the Black Tortoise stood on either side of him to protect him.

Yuwen Tuo reluctantly watched Yu Wu get into the carriage. This separation would take at least half a month. Last night, they had been together all night. No matter how reluctant they were, they had temporarily separated for a period of time.

Dan Yu Wu sat in the carriage and mouthed to Yuwen Tuo, "I love you, Tuo …"

Yuwen Tuo nodded. The corner of his mouth moved as if he was responding to her words.

Cen Xue saw the two of them in such a state. Once she returns to the past, she will definitely change the fate between them. She will definitely let them be together!

"What are you looking at?" He Lianlian instructed Xiao Boyi for a bit before following him into the carriage.

"Oh, it's nothing. I just want to remember this Black Tortoise Sect's appearance. When I return to the past and compare them, will it be the same as now?" Cen Xue turned her head and smiled at him. She actually felt a bit sour in her heart, but she hid it well, not allowing him to see through it.

"Idiot." Helian Shan embraced her lovingly.

As soon as she finished speaking, the horse carriage moved forward slowly. Cen Xue opened the window of the horse carriage and took one last look at the familiar sight of the Lou Lan Royal Palace.

The team slowly moved forward and sped up once they entered the public road. Helian Lie embraced her throughout the entire journey and was constantly bumpy. However, Cen Xue found it rather interesting.

Helian Zhang looked at the smile on her face, and the pain in his heart gradually subsided along with her smile …

Before night fell, the caravan arrived at the relay station, the place where they had previously settled down. Everyone quickly packed up and moved into the relay station, and just as they stepped into the gate, the green dragon saw this familiar scene and couldn't help but think of Rui Jian.

I wonder what she's doing now? What would she think of him after seeing his letter? Would he be resentful that he hadn't personally gone to get hired?

"Azure Dragon, what are you thinking about?" One Feather Dance patted him from behind.

With her shout, all his thoughts returned to normal. He turned around and apologetically smiled at her. "I'm not thinking of anything. You can go upstairs and rest."

Dan Yu Wu had already seen through his thoughts. He was thinking about how pure and innocent they were, so she didn't disturb his recollection. Thus, she followed Cen Xue up to the third floor.

This remote place was naturally not as comfortable as the palaces. The food it served was rather simple and crude. Initially, Helian Shan was worried that Cen Xue would not be used to it, but seeing how she was eating, he was relieved.

The next day, the group did not waste any more time as they did not have the time to roam around the mountains and rivers like they did last time. The next day, the group did not waste any more time as they did not have the time to roam around the mountains and water as they continued to travel along the official road towards Everlasting Mountain.

Helian Lie stayed in the carriage to accompany him, and from time to time he would ride with him, walking at the front of the group. Soon, they had covered three days of journey, and at this speed, they would most likely reach the foot of the Everlasting Mountain tomorrow night.

"Dang, hug me tight …" At this moment, both of them were on horseback. Cen Xue pulled on one of his arms which was wrapped around her waist, gently asking him.

Helian Lie naturally obeyed. He tightly hugged her, and placed his chin on her neck. He rubbed her neck, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and breathed out a warm breath, "Do you remember the last time we rode together, what were we doing on horseback?"

Last time? Cen Xue was momentarily unable to answer his question. She lowered her head to think for a while before turning to look at him in fear … You, you pervert! "

"Don't say it like that. We're husband and wife, like fish in water. That's normal, isn't it, Xue'er?" Helian Shan just wanted to tease her.

After Cen Xue was reminded of this, her little face flushed red like a monkey's butt, causing Helian Lie to laugh out loud.

A few feet behind them was the caravan. The leading Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, and Black Turtle looked at the two in front of them with curiosity. They didn't know what the king and queen were talking about.

Cen Xue felt as if she had been fooled by him. She used all her strength to push her elbow against his stomach, causing He Lianlian to eat the turtle. His face was dumb as he ate the yellow fish; there was an indescribable feeling of bitterness.

Did he dare to lay his hands on his own wife? As for the impossible, he could only lick his own wounds.

Cen Xue sat in front of him. She could not hear any sound from behind him nor could she sense any movement from him. Could she have injured him? Or was he angry?

After a moment of silence, Cen Xue couldn't help but turn to look at him. However, the moment she looked back, she met his injured face …

"Li …" What happened to you? Did you hurt me just now? " Cen Xue apologetically looked back at him, her small hands reaching towards the place where she had attacked and gently massaging him.

After finally getting her attention, Helian Lie held her gentle hands and warmly said, "Don't ignore me in the future. Alright, promise me …"

Cen Xue looked at him and subconsciously nodded her head and leaned into his embrace. However, it seemed like he was the one who had played tricks on her the whole time. She didn't do anything wrong right?

In the end, she gave up. She could understand his feelings, so she obediently leaned into his embrace and quickened her pace.

On the second day, Helian Lie ordered the team to move faster. They had to reach the Everlasting Mountain before nightfall. If they couldn't reach there by nightfall, it would be troublesome.

The Everlasting Mountain was located in the mountain range at the border of Lou Lan. It was rather remote and did not have any households along the way, except for a small town at the foot of the mountain. If they could not reach the mountain by nightfall, they would have to sleep in the wilderness.

The weather was getting colder and colder. If he spent the night in the wilderness, it would be very unsafe. There might be birds or wolves in the vicinity, and he could not risk everyone's lives, especially Cen Xue's.

"Zhang Li, why don't we all take a break?" They had not rested since the morning. Even if they were not tired, the horses were tired.

Cen Xue looked out of the window and saw Helian Shan holding onto his hand with a pleading look in her eyes.

He nodded and said, "Alright, you are the Queen. You make the decision, but you can't rest for too long. We need to reach the foot of the Everlasting Mountain before nightfall."

"Mm …" Cen Xue smiled sweetly, causing Helian Shan to be unable to take his eyes off of her.

Everyone was tired, especially Keser. The moment the carriage stopped, he immediately got out of the car. He got off the carriage and sat on the grass, breathing heavily.

Dan Yu Wu also came down to help Mu Ru Yue rest. Looking at Keser's appearance, Mu Yue teased him, "Doctor Keser, are you able to keep up with these old bones of yours?"

Mu Yue's voice rang behind him. He turned around and saw the two of them. Waving his hand, he shook his head and said, "Aiyo, if this continues, my old bones will really fall apart."

"That won't do. From what I see, we still have to hurry in the afternoon. We have to get to the small town at the foot of the mountain before nightfall. If not, we will have to sleep in the wilderness." Dan Yu Wu helped Elder Mu Yue to sit down. At this moment, the maid took out a snack from the carriage for everyone to eat.

When Heather heard that there was still half a day before the bumpy ride, she sighed and stuffed a piece of dessert into her mouth without a word.

Cen Xue had long since heard the complaints of Doctor Keser. She walked over with Helian Lie from the front of the carriage, holding hands as they walked in front of them.

"Your Majesty, Queen …" Mu Yue replied politely.

"Take a seat. It will be hard today. Everyone take a rest. We still need to hurry on our way." Helian Zhang did not say too many polite words. He only remembered to remind them.

"Yes …" Heather did not say anything, but seized the opportunity to rest.

Cen Xue leaned on Helian Lie and said with a smile, "I'm so sorry for making everyone work so hard."

"The queen is too courteous. As her subjects, this is what we should do. We do not dare to complain." Mu Yue said with a smile.

After an hour, Helian Shan had the people of the Green Dragon Convenience gather, preparing to once again head towards the Everlasting Mountain. Heather sat on the horse, and simply laid down in a position that would make her feel more comfortable.

As time passed, Helian Lie didn't give anyone a chance to rest. Cen Xue tiredly walked forward and leaned against him as he returned, looking drowsy and drowsy.

The sun was setting in the west, and night was quietly falling. They had yet to see the town in front of them, but at this moment, a "Ao …" came from the forest. Cen Xue woke up from her deep sleep with a start.

"Li, what happened?" Cen Xue suddenly sat up and looked at Helian Shan beside her. She asked him in her heart with some fear.

"It's fine, it's just the sound of the wolves in the forest." Helian Lie spoke very casually. He didn't want to scare her.

"Wolf?" There are wolves around here? "Where is it? Will it come to eat us?" Cen Xue knew that there were many wolves. What would she do if a large pack of wolves came to attack them?

Helian Lie knew that she was afraid, so he hugged her and comforted her, "I'm not afraid. After passing through this forest, we will soon reach the Everlasting Mountain. We can now see the peak of the mountain."

Cen Xue didn't believe it. She lifted the curtain and looked ahead, but the dense forest blocked her view of the town. However, she still remembered that there was still some distance to go before they reached the town.
