"Empress Dowager Xue, don't worry. His Majesty is fine, he's just awake and roaring to see you, but His Majesty's body is rather weak right now, so this old man has come to invite Your Highness over!" When Cen Xue heard these words, she pushed them away and ran into the room where the two of them were staying the night before.

With a bang, the door was pushed open. When she saw Helian Lie leaning weakly against the bed, she didn't have the thought of caring about anything else. She only wanted to rush into his embrace, tightly hug him, cling to him, and feel his warmth …

The Azure Dragon standing beside the bed, seeing that she had arrived, sensibly withdrew and left the meal on the table. He brought the group of servants and left the room, and as he passed by her, he whispered in her ear, "The king's body is very weak. There is a food on the table with medicinal herbs, I'll have to trouble the Queen to let the king eat it!"

Cen Xue nodded politely and said, "Don't worry, I will do it well."

Before the green dragon could leave, Helian Lie called out to her with great dissatisfaction, "What are you guys talking about? Don't forget that Gu Lao is still here. Do you guys still have Gu Shenwei in your eyes?"

Cen Xue gestured for the Azure Dragon to leave first. She turned her head to look at him on the bed, and with her ashen expression, she could tell that he was angry. She picked up the food on the table and sat beside his bed.

Helian Lie had been staring at her face the entire time, without saying a word, he had only quietly eaten the food she had brought in, only until he had swallowed the last mouthful and watched him finish eating the food in the bowl did she calm down. Just as she stood up with the plate in her hand, she felt a pain in her foot, the plate in her hand fell to the ground, and the porcelain bowl also shattered!

"Ah …" Cen Xue cried out in fear. Helian Shan immediately pulled her into his embrace, and asked gently, "What happened? Why were you suddenly unable to hold a plate? Have you been hurt by the debris?

"It hurts …" Cen Xue frowned as Helian Lie carried her to the bed. When he saw that she had no shoes on, he was so angry that he wanted to kill the person who served her.

"Why did you come running here without wearing shoes? Why is there a bloody wound on his leg? " He pulled her feet over his chest, and when he saw that little white object inside the wound, he was so angry that he shouted loudly towards the outside, "Dammit, just who's taking care of Xue Fei, pull her out and kill her!"

Cen Xue was shocked and she immediately covered his mouth, not allowing him to speak. The large movement caused the wound to open up, causing her to wince in pain.

"Quickly find Old mister Gui Gu …" ShShehadn't hurt her at all yesterday, but now she had actually hurt Xue Er and made her bleed. He squinted her eyes in annoyance and hugged her big hands tightly. He couldn't help but increase her strength.

After Ghost Valley came over and checked Cen Xue's wounds, he personally cleaned up Cen Xue's wounds and took out a small piece of porcelain, causing Helian Shan's expression to become more and more unsightly. She had only left him for a short while and those trash did not treat her well.

"Empress, you have to be careful of the wounds in the next few days. It's best if you don't get out of bed and walk around, and don't let the wounds get wet. This old man has left some ointment here, and every day, you need to remember to apply some medicine. I believe you'll be able to recover in three days!" Gui Cang Zi seriously reminded her of the matters she should pay attention to and Cen Xue nodded her head politely. She had a question that had been on her mind for a long time, and she wanted to ask Helian Shan who was by her side.

After everyone had left, Helian Shan embraced her and laid on the bed. Cen Xue caressed his familiar face and asked with a puzzled expression, "Li, why do they call me Niang? I feel weird and I'm getting goosebumps all over my body. "

"Hahaha …" "My little fool, that's because I've already conferred you the title of imperial concubine, so of course they'll call you that, because you're my Xue Fei. When we return to the palace, I'll give you the title of imperial concubine. What do you say?" Seeing Cen Xue so close to him, he could not help but step forward to kiss her.

"Actually, you don't need to do this to me. I don't care about the concubine beauty, you should know what I want." When Cen Xue heard his words, she was shocked in her heart. She never thought that what he said the other day was true. However, to her, these fame and fortune were like floating clouds. She did not care about them at all.

"Xue'er, don't go, don't leave loneliness. Do you remember the words you promised me in the ice cave? You said that as long as we can stay alive and wake up alone, you won't leave me. You will stay by my side for the rest of your life willingly.

Seeing him so nervous, Cen Xue's heart warmed, "You're mistaken. I didn't say I would leave you, so of course my words would count, but you misunderstood me. I don't want to leave you, I just want you to give me more privacy, is that okay?"

Helian Lie was stunned for a moment. In her private space, what was she planning to do?

"Boom …"

Seeing that he did not say anything, Cen Xue continued to call out to him.

"Oh, I promise you that in the future, I will give you more private space. If you have the time, I will take you out of the palace for a stroll, okay?" Helian Lie reached out his hand to caress her cheek; he would never let go of Cen Xue.

"Mm …" Leaning against his chest, listening to his heartbeat, Cen Xue could only feel a sweetness in her heart. This was the feeling of being in love.

That's right, this was the feeling of love. He didn't expect that she would fall in love with the man who had humiliated her. Perhaps this was the heavens' arrangement.

"Li, you know, I didn't even dream that we would have such a day. In my heart, you are a demon who has stolen my beasts and tortured me. At any time, I am always thinking about how to leave you. Cen Xue suddenly wanted to tell him the words in her heart. Even if she didn't say them, Helian Lie would have already seen through her thoughts. That was why he would lock her up in that concealed cell when she returned.

"Xue'er …" "Lonely …" Helian Lie wanted to speak, but he hesitated. He did not know how to open his mouth to speak.

Seeing his panicked expression, Cen Xue guessed what he wanted to say.

She put her hand on his lips. She knew that he could not say those three words because they were not words that could be casually said to anyone.

"You don't need to say anything. I know what you want to say. Really …" The heavens were still fair. The reason why Yu Wu did not choose him back then was probably because the heavens had long prepared for him for Cen Xue's appearance three years later, right?

He pulled Cen Xue's small hand away from his lips and closed the distance between them. His lips could not help but feel her soft and tender skin. That soft and sweet touch and taste made him want even more …

As his large hands began to get restless, Cen Xue's eyes immediately opened wide as she stared at him. At this moment, Helian Shan seemed to be intoxicated as he completely immersed himself in her warmth.

"Ugh …" "Don't be like this …" Cen Xue pushed him away, increasing the distance between them that was originally close to each other.

Helian Shan looked at her with a face full of puzzlement. He didn't understand why she had to reject him, but there were traces of injuries in his eyes. "Xue'er, why? Why did you reject Gu Yong? "

Cen Xue instantly realized that her reaction was a little too extreme. She lowered her head and explained awkwardly, "Don't misunderstand, I didn't mean to reject you, but your body can't do that. Have you forgotten that we've escaped this calamity?"

Helian Lie had been staring into her eyes the entire time. He believed that in a person's heart, their eyes were their best point of view. Cen Xue's words caused him to feel a little embarrassed.

Helian Shi didn't know what to say, he just stared at Cen Xue. When Cen Xue saw his sullen look, she laughed happily. He was no longer like the tyrannical tyrant from before, but more like a child who had done something wrong, waiting to be forgiven and coaxed!

"My king, chenqie is tired. How about you hug chenqie and sleep?" Cen Xue suddenly imitated those concubines in the palace as she smiled at him coquettishly.

"Hahaha …" "Alright, I will definitely hug my beloved concubine so tightly that there won't even be a breeze. My beloved concubine will definitely have a good night's sleep!"

After adjusting her position, Helian Shan made her lie in the bed. Firstly, she could prevent others from seeing her, and secondly, she wanted to take care of her in a more convenient manner.

The calamity had exhausted both of their bodies and minds. Even though she had rested for the night, Cen Xue still felt exhausted. She lay down on his sturdy arms and very quickly, she fell into a deep slumber.

Helian Lie tightly embraced her. His face also revealed a satisfied smile. Seeing her so close to his side, perhaps it was because she was too fortunate. This caused him, who had just woken up, to once again feel deeply sleepy!

Three days later, Cen Xue's foot wound healed just as Ghost Valley had said. She couldn't wait to walk around, but Helian Lie was worried that her foot wound had just healed. A team of guards followed behind her wherever she went.

When Dan Yu Wu read the note on the pigeon and flipped through many books, she only gave a single conclusion: The blood pool contained the condensed spirit energy left behind by the previous High Priestess, and the Saintess, who had been baptized in the blood pool, would be devoured. That was because the spirit energy in the blood pool sensed that there was a more suitable candidate than the Holy Maiden, who had been baptised in the blood pool.

Normally, this kind of thing would not happen, but for the blood pools to do this sort of thing in succession, there was only one explanation. That person was indeed more suitable than those holy girls!

Mu Yue was helpless as well. The previous Sect Leader of Sheng Yue had died because of cultivation deviation. She had been managing the Sacred Moon Sect for the past few years and had been waiting for a suitable candidate.

It wasn't easy for her to nurture three Holy Maiden candidates, but now this kind of thing happened again. How could she let this happen? Her old bones wouldn't last for many more years.

In the past few days, Cen Xue had seen Elder Mu Yue and Helian Lie conversing privately, but she couldn't hear what they were saying. Each time, their faces were extremely solemn. Could something big have happened?

On this day, while Cen Xue was still sleeping soundly, Elder Mu Yue's voice sounded from outside the door, as if she had urgent matters to discuss with the king.

Cen Xue, who was still unconscious, felt that the man beside her had woken up. She gave him a kiss on his forehead, and soon the sound of the door opening could be heard.

Without Helian Lie's embrace, Cen Xue's pajamas were completely gone. She went out early in the morning to discuss things. In the past, Li Shan would always tell her everything. He had even mentioned to her the important matter of annihilating a country like Bai Yan. But why didn't he tell her this time? What was so mysterious about it?
