As time slowly passed, Helian Lie maintained the same posture as before, kneeling on the edge of the blood pool. Just when Mu Yue was about to give up, the blood pool in front of him seemed to have a reaction?

Bubbles began to constantly bubble in the center of the blood pool, as if something was about to rush up. Helian Shan nervously watched this scene, and he didn't even dare to blink, deeply afraid that he would miss that most important moment in that one second.

"Cen Xue, is that you? "Gu Xue'er, you've returned, right?" Helian Lie watched the bubbles on the surface of the water grow larger and larger, and the nervousness in his heart grew. He silently prayed that a miracle would happen to Helian Shan.

Mu Yue was completely focused on the blood pool, hoping that the king would pray for that girl to come back. Only if she returned to the king's side would the king be able to act like a normal person.

The blood pool was bubbling nonstop, and its amplitude was getting larger and larger. Almost the entire blood pool was in an uproar because of this anomaly. Helian Lie's heart was practically tangled up together.

Following the appearance of the white light, a bit of pink material slowly appeared in the center of the pool. Helian Shan seemed to have seen hope, and he didn't even dare to breathe loudly, in case this miracle would be disturbed by him.

The two people on the side of the pool stared wide-eyed at the scene in the middle of the pool, watching as the pink colored clothes on the outside gradually expanded, until a pair of hands, and a familiar face appeared in front of them. Helian Shan could no longer control the ecstasy in his heart, and shouted out emotionally, "Cen Xue … "Xue'er …"

Cen Xue slowly emerged from the bottom of the pool and the white light continued to protect her as it slowly brought her back to the edge of the pool. Helian Shan quickly carried her out of the pool and tightly hugged her … Don't let go...

"Xue'er, Xue'er, wake up! Quickly look! Lonely, stay here …" Helian Zhang anxiously called out to her, but she seemed to still be in a coma and didn't respond no matter how he called out to her.

Mu Yue crouched down and examined it for her. Her pulse was very stable and her breathing was steady. There shouldn't be any problems. As she looked at Cen Xue who was in the arms of the king, many questions arose in Mu Yue's heart.

"Your Majesty, the Empress is fine. He seems to have just fallen asleep, but don't you find it strange?" The things that happened just now, and the Empress's body, do not seem to show any signs of falling into a pool of blood. Cen Xue fell into the blood pool, but her whole body was not drenched at all. Even her hair was as dry as before.

"Forget it, I don't want to think about anything else now. As long as Cen Xue can return to me safely, it's good that she will be fine. Too many things have happened recently, after a few days when Cen Xue's health is unharmed, I will bring her back to the palace. Only the palace is the safest for her." With these words, Helian Lie carried the unconscious Cen Xue and quickly left the forbidden area of the blood pool.

Mu Yue looked at their departing figures and then turned around to look at the blood pool that had returned to its calm state. What secret was hidden within this pool? What was that white light? Cen Xue was actually able to escape unscathed from the blood pool. Was she the most suitable candidate? Or was it all because of the "Human Book" at the bottom of the pool?

Legend has it that this "Book of Man" was also known as the God's Mirror, and was one of the three ancient God's Miracles.

The three divine charms were, respectively, "Heavenly Book, Earthly Book, and Human Book." All of them were created by the ancient sage Fuxi, the mother of all living creatures, Nuwa, who had invited the experts of the Nine Prefectures, the heroes of the Four Seas, to gather the essence of the sun and moon, to gather the essence of the world, to cause the spinal cord of Pangu to burst forth with the blood of Fuxi, and to exhaust the power of the Nine Eighty-one Heavens!

Hundreds of years ago, by chance, this book fell into the hands of the Sacred Moon Sect, in case someone tried to take the book away from them. At that time, the Sect Leader and several other elders worked together to seal the book at the bottom of the blood pool. Only the previous Sect Leaders and Elders knew about this secret, so the blood pool was classified as a forbidden area and no one was allowed to trespass!

Helian Lie carried Cen Xue back into the room and stood guard by her side. Watching her unconscious, his heart tightened around her hand. Just thinking of the scene when Cen Xue had disappeared, his entire body couldn't help but tremble.

"Your Majesty, it's alright. The Empress is just sleeping. She'll wake up soon." This was the first time the Azure Dragon had seen the king so nervous about a woman, and he couldn't help but think of the pure and honest man who had been pestering him for the past few days.

For the past few days, Chunyu Ruo was always accompanying Ghost Valley, rarely hanging around in front of his eyes, which made him a little not used to it.

"I'm fine. Go down and have Wenqing prepare some of the food the Empress likes." Helian Lie's gaze was fixated on Cen Xue's unconscious face, not daring to move away for even a second.

"Yes, your subject will do it right away!" The Azure Dragon did not dare to disobey the King and immediately retreated.

Helian Shan sat by her bedside, accompanying her. He looked at her, hoping that the first person she would see when she woke up would be him.

Cen Xue did not wake up. This made Helian Lie even more anxious. Mu Yue and Ghost Valley had been diagnosed by her pulse, but were their bodies unharmed?

In the middle of the night, the food was changed once more. Helian Lie had accompanied her since morning and did not eat a single mouthful of soup. He continued to stare at her as he tried to call out her name again and again, "Cen Xue … "Xue'er …"

"Cough, cough …" A cough suddenly rang out, and Cen Xue, who had been in a coma for the entire day, finally regained consciousness.

Helian Lie looked at her furrowed brow, and his eyes actually filled with mist. His Xue'er had returned …

"Xue'er, wake up! Look at Gu, Gu'er, I'm here to accompany you, to protect you …" Helian Lie joyfully leaned over and hugged her, excitedly calling out to her.

The drowsy Cen Xue slowly opened her eyes. What entered them was the extremely anxious gaze of Helian Lie. Was he worrying about her?

"Boom …" It responded to his shout, even though it was obviously strenuous.

"Stay here alone, here …" The two of them tightly embraced. As Cen Xue recalled the scene where she fell into the blood pool, her heart throbbed and her arms hugged him tightly.

Everything seemed like a dream. She seemed to have been drawn into the bottom of a pool by a ray of light and had been wandering around a small box. She didn't know what had happened. He felt as if there was a power calling him from within the box.

"It's okay, it's okay. Promise me you won't go anywhere alone in the future, understand?" "Don't leave me, don't …" Helian Shan was afraid of losing her. He could not bear a second blow.

Cen Xue nodded as she did not want to recall what had happened. She was afraid and anxious, many questions piled up in her mind. Even though she was previously a scientist, these questions could not be answered through science.

"F * ck, I'm hungry …" After being tormented for a whole day, she was indeed extremely hungry.

Helian Lie let go of her and brought the prepared food to the bedside. He personally fed her mouthful by mouthful. A monarch of his generation would actually treat her with such gentleness. Cen Xue's face revealed a happy smile.

"Li, you also want to eat? Looking at your appearance, you must have not eaten either, right?" Cen Xue could understand his feelings back then. She grabbed the chopsticks in his hand and placed a mouthful of the dish next to his mouth.

Helian Lie's mouth twitched as he swallowed the food she brought to his mouth. When Wen Qing heard the Empress's voice coming from within the room, she was also happy to inform everyone that Cen Xue had woken up. Mu Yue also let out a long sigh of relief.

Tonight was an exciting night. Helian Lie embraced her, and Cen Xue's pair of slender arms were wrapped tightly around his neck, as if they were the only things left in the world.

"Chi, in the future, can you change your name in front of me? Why do you keep calling yourself" Gu "? I'm not used to it. " The next day, the two of them still refused to get out of bed.

"Then you don't like it. When it's just the two of us, I'll definitely change it, okay?" For her sake, he was even willing to climb the mountain of blades or descend the sea of flames.

"Mm …" He took the initiative to place a bite on his lips, causing him to almost be unable to hold himself back.

The two of them were truly envious of the others, especially the innocent one. She had spent a lot of time and effort on the Azure Dragon, pulling his master, the old man from the Ghost Valley, to her side, asking him to help her.

Naturally, Ghost Valley loved to be honest and had no problems, so she let the Azure Dragon accompany her. The two of them seemed to have gotten closer to Ghost Valley, at least for now, the Azure Dragon wouldn't chase her away.

Mu Yue had come to find Cen Xue many times in the morning, hoping to find out some information about yesterday's events. However, Cen Xue had been in a coma the entire time, and it seemed like she was having a dream.

Even so, Mu Yue was certain that Cen Xue's identity was definitely not ordinary. Not only did she not get swallowed by the blood pool, but some strange things even happened. Could it be that the Holy Maiden had been devoured because they felt Cen Xue's existence and felt that Cen Xue was the most suitable candidate?

"Orphan objections... Cen Xue was Gu's beloved concubine. How could she be Holy Moon Sect's Holy Maiden? "She is no longer a virgin and she will definitely be the queen of Lou Lan in the future!" Helian Zhang expressed his strong opposition to Mu Yue's conjecture.

Cen Xue who was listening to their argument seemed to understand the whole situation!

The Sacred Moon Sect had previously selected three Holy Daughters to undergo baptism in the blood pond. This was a certain ritual within the Sacred Moon Sect, but the blood pool had unexpectedly devoured the three girls. Thus, Elder Mu Yue had been feeling depressed recently because of this matter.

However, what happened yesterday was simply too unbelievable. Since ancient times, if a person was not caught by the spirit energy, they would have been devoured by the blood pool, but she wasn't, she wasn't. If she survived, did that mean she was the most suitable Holy Maiden?

Heavens … It's too complicated. What kind of world is this? How did I end up with such a strange thing?

She sat aside and listened quietly. She didn't dare to say anything to prevent herself from saying something wrong.

When Mu Yue heard Helian Lie's agitated words, she had already made up her mind. Even if the king hadn't said anything, she knew that he wouldn't let the girl stay in the Sacred Moon Sect to be the Holy Maiden.

However, in this case, who could sit on the position of Holy Maiden Sect's Sect Leader? The position of Sect Leader has been vacant for many years, is it not a good idea to continue like this?
