"Elder Mu Yue, Lan Qi'er died because of me. That night, Yu Wu and Big Brother Tengger came to the Cold Palace to save me. However, the Cold Palace had been forced to keep a woman, so Lan Qi'er … "Sob, sob …" Cen Xue was momentarily unable to accept this sudden news as she threw herself into Mu Yue's embrace, tears streaming down her face.

From their words, Dusk Yue slowly connected the cause and effect. Tengger then added on to her doubts, "So the entire matter was caused by that woman, Black Wood Zana. I already knew that she had ill intentions, but it was still impossible to guard against!"

"Little girl, don't be sad. A dead person can't be revived. With your appearance, even if Lan Qier were to look at you from the sky, she wouldn't feel at ease. Right now, the most important thing for you to do is to hide first, and then, safely give birth to and nurture your child well. As for everything else, just leave it to us. Mu Yue hugged her painfully. What a bitter child.

However, her heart was kind. With such a group of friends helping her in the dark, it was fortunate that the girl was here. If not, then the consequences would be unimaginable!

"Elder Mu Yue is right. Miss Yu Wu told me to take the small path and head straight for the Everlasting Mountain. She repeatedly reminded me that Cen Xue would only be safe under your protection!" Tung clasped his hands together. He was going to give Cen Xue to her care.

Mu Yue nodded, this was true, only by staying far away from the capital would Cen Xue be able to escape danger. At this critical juncture, she definitely could not let anyone know that Cen Xue was still alive, moreover at Everlasting Mountain!

"Then how will my Lan Qi'er and his group settle down?" At this moment, in Cen Xue's heart, there was only Lan Qi'er who had died for her. She had died just like that, and in such a miserable manner.

Don't worry little girl, the King now thinks that Lan Qi'er's corpse is you, and he is using the crystal coffin to preserve it, and because of this terrible news, the King is able to break free from Black Wood Zana's control. He is now very clear-headed, and very regretful of what happened before. Mu Yue comforted her, hoping that she would become stronger.

Cen Xue wiped away the tears on her face and said faintly, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have done what I did! "This time, I will not forgive him …"

This time, their child had nearly died in the womb, along with Lan Qi'er's life. She had said that day that he would regret it, and He Lianlian would definitely regret it …

"Cen Xue, don't think too much. I've already safely sent you up the Everlasting Mountain. In the future, when I'm not by your side, you must be careful." Tung could not stay here long, and it was time to leave.

"Big brother Tengger, thank you. Thank you for saving me once again!" Cen Xue's eyes were red, and even with a thousand words, she was unable to express her gratitude.

He saved her time and time again without giving her anything in return, and this was Tung. In the past, she had treated this person as a great villain, but now that she had gotten to know him, she realized just how cute he was.

"I will remember this favor you owe me!" He was relieved to see that she was all right.

The three of them discussed in the carriage for a while. The Sacred Moon Sect's main altar, Cen Xue, could not stay here. Firstly, there might be more people talking amongst them, and secondly, she had to enter the palace tomorrow to arrange things for Lan Qier.

The towns at the foot of the Everlasting Mountain had already been properly dealt with, and at the back of the mountain, Gui Gu Zi was constantly resting and would not travel for a short period of time. With the protection of the Sacred Moon Sect, it would be safer for Cen Xue to stay at the Ghost Valley than at the main altar of the Sacred Moon Sect.

The horse carriage slowly descended the mountain and stopped halfway through. Cen Xue's whereabouts must be kept a secret, so they could not openly head to the back of the mountain. They had to take a detour and walk for more than an hour before they finally arrived at the Ghost Valley.

This place looked like a holy land built on top of a mountain, and only people like the Ghost valleys had the right to live in this place where the immortal qi was reborn.

In his memory, Cen Xue had only been here once. However, it would not be as mysterious as the one he saw today. Perhaps it was due to the weather, but it would lack that breathtaking mist.

Following behind Elder Mu Yue, she pushed open the gate to the courtyard. In the courtyard, a fifteen to sixteen year old boy was cleaning the fallen leaves in the courtyard. When he saw the group enter, he immediately put down the broom in his hand and came over: "Elder, you've come. My master is taking his afternoon nap. You guys wait in the hall for a moment, I'll go wake him up now."

The young man who spoke was also a disciple of the Ghost Valley. However, he was different from the Azure Dragon. The four of them were learning martial arts, while he and the other three disciples were learning medical arts.

"Thank you, Qingsong." Mu Yue smiled as she spoke. As a frequent customer, she was naturally familiar with this place.

Just as the youth turned around to leave, Mu Yue led Cen Xue and Tengge into the house. As they walked, she introduced them, "There are eight disciples from the Ghost Valley, and all four of them know the Azure Dragon. However, there are four others whom you probably haven't heard of."

"Which four?" Tengg asked curiously. He had only heard about Ghost Valley Zi before, and it was said that he was a martial arts prodigy who was more proficient in the arts of medicine and the Secret Arts of the Gate of Escaping. However, this was only what he had heard, so it was impossible to tell whether it was true or not.

A few years ago, when the four of them went down the mountain and entered the palace, this old thing's days were much more lonely. That's why after he went out for a while, he brought back four more disciples. As she spoke, Mu Yue agilely heard the sound of footsteps walking towards them.

A pretty girl in white appeared in their line of sight, holding a few cups of tea. Seeing her simple and elegant actions, Cen Xue guessed that she was also the beloved disciple of the old mister Ghost Valley, the only girl amongst the four of them, 'Bai Lu'!

"Elder Mu Yue, please enjoy some tea. My master has already stood up. He will come out to meet guests when he is fully dressed." Bai Lu looked to be about the same age as Qing Song, about one to two years old. However, her body exuded an aura that made people feel that she was untouchable, causing Cen Xue to instantly fall in love with this girl.

"It's fine, we'll just wait for him." Mu Yue took the tea and casually said.

Cen Xue also picked up the cup of tea that she had brought over and carefully savored it. It was indeed a beloved disciple trained by the old mister Gui Gu Zi. Even the brewed tea was extremely fragrant.

"Master." When Bai Lu had just sent in the tea and pastries, Ghost Beetle had already unknowingly walked into the hall.

He was seventy years old and looked to be in his fifties. His skin was fair, and his face was still radiant. If not for the plague that had struck him a few days ago, he would have been tired for a while, and his body would have been weak compared to before.

Gui Gu walked into the hall and looked at the other two people outside of Mu Yue. His face revealed a trace of doubt.

"You've finally come. Today, I came here because I have a very important matter that I want to ask of you." Mu Yue took the initiative to walk over, looked at Cen Xue and said.

He clearly knew every move of hers. When she looked at the beautiful woman beside her just now, she guessed that this must be related to this person?

"Qingsong and Bai Lu, both of you may leave. I want to have a detailed discussion with Elder Mu Yue and the two esteemed guests!" Since Mu Yue was able to bring two people to find him, it definitely wouldn't be a simple matter.

"Yes, Master." The two withdrew.

Cen Xue had only met Ghost Valley once, but that was five years later when she came to curry favor with Ruo Ling. The current him did not remember him having her at all, so he had to start from the beginning.

"Elder Mu Yue, if you have something to say, then just say it. You and I have known each other for dozens of years. It is about time that we understood each other very well." He could tell from Cen Xue and Tengge's attire and aura that they were not ordinary people. They were definitely important people with a certain status.

Cen Xue saw the two of them quietly sipping tea. It was unknown if she was nervous or what, but before Elder Mu Yue could speak, Cen Xue herself had already voiced her request, "Old mister, I hope that you can keep us for a period of time."

"This …"

With Cen Xue's sudden words, Ghost Valley was at a loss. Could this be the purpose of Mu Yue's visit?

Old ghost, this is the Queen of Lou Lan Country. I believe you already know about the matters within the palace, and it's very complicated, so I'll explain everything to you when I'm done. However, the most important thing is for you to arrange a place for the Queen to temporarily hide from you. Mu Ru Yue explained in an orderly manner. She would slowly explain the story in the future.

As Ghost Valley listened to Mu Yue's explanation, their hearts were filled with doubts. Didn't the Queen already die in the Cold Palace Fire? But now, he appeared here again. It seemed that this matter was indeed very complicated!

"Don't worry, the Queen will be very safe here. In a while, I'll have Bai Lu clean up the Vermillion Bird's room and have the Queen temporarily submit herself to me. But, you must not hide the entire matter from me." Ghost valleys loved to listen to stories, especially these thrilling ones.

"Cen Xue thanks old mister for taking me in!" Cen Xue slowly stood up. Even though she already had a big belly, but in order to thank others for helping her, she still had to personally thank them.

"How can the Queen perform such a great salute? Quickly get up, this is equivalent to killing this old man!" Gui Cang Zi helped Cen Xue back into the chair and looked at her round stomach. It had already been six months since she was a baby. Seeing how small she was and how big her belly was, she must be carrying twins.

"Cen Xue will remember the old mister's kindness for the rest of her life." For the sake of the child in her womb, everything Cen Xue did was worth it.

Mu Yue knew that the old ghost wouldn't sit back and do nothing. With his four disciples taking care of Cen Xue, there shouldn't be a problem. They were all proficient in medical skills, so staying here was the safest option!

Tengger had been guarding Cen Xue the entire time. Seeing how they took care of Cen Xue, he finally felt at ease to leave and return to Tewa.

Seeing that it was already getting late, Cen Xue stood outside the gate with her big belly. If not for Big Brother Tengge's protection along the way, she and her child would not have been able to come to the Everlasting Mountain successfully. After spending these days together, they were about to part.
