Xie Zimo opened his mute acupoint and explained his identity to Baili Xueyi. Then, he turned his head, indicating a color for her to answer.
Duan Ling Tian smiled as he said, "I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm fine, I'm fine." Mo Li walked over to the man, grabbed his collar, and said, "Four years ago, you captured a young lady who's around sixteen. Where is she now?"
"What girl? I've caught a lot of girls before, and it's a girl from four years ago. How would I remember?" The man didn't even bother recalling his memories as he answered immediately. Obviously, he did not remember this matter.
Kui Xue took out half of her jade pendant from her waist, waved it in front of him, and said, "That girl, she also has this with her. Who bought her, where is she now? "Speak!"
The cold and oppressive silver needle fell onto the man's neck. A trace of blood-red seeped out of his skin. An enchanting drop of blood overflowed from the surroundings of the silver needle. The man bit his teeth and clicked his tongue.
"I don't know. I really don't know. I don't remember. It's such a long time ago, don't kill me." The man cried out for mercy.
"Then you don't have to live." The silver needle in Kui Xue's hand became deeper.
The man hastily shouted, "I have, I have. I have seen the jade pendant in your hand. I remember now, I remember now. Four years ago, the current emperor bought that girl …" "Afterwards, I never heard of anything. Some people said that the girl seemed to have offended the emperor and was killed, but I don't know the specifics. I only know that the person who bought the girl was the emperor, and it was the emperor …"
The silver needle fell to the ground, and the fragrant snow staggered backwards.
Was Mu Jingshu dead?
Thus, no matter how the palace was searched for, within a huge palace, there were many maids and eunuchs. Whether or not everyone had seen the favoured Empress before, how could they not be looked upon by others …? The other half of the jade pendant was not a sacred object, so how could anyone have seen it …
It had been four years. She had sought out Mu Jingshu for four years … Is this the end result?
How could that be? Mu Jingshu wouldn't die. Mu Jingshu was so quick-witted, so how could she die?
Xie Zimo narrowed his eyes, moving the dagger in his hand. Blood gushed out from the man's neck. He didn't even have time to be shocked before dying. Baili Xiang Xue raised her head, but all she saw was the terrified look on the man's face as he died.
Xie Zimo threw away his dagger and walked towards her step by step. He gently hugged her and comforted her.
"Not real... What he said was not true. Mu Jingshu hadn't died, so she wouldn't die … "I won't …" Kui Xue backed up a few steps, her heels starting to go soft. She covered her forehead and continuously shook her head. From start to finish, she could not believe this fact.
"Sweet Snow …" Xie Zimo dragged the 100 li of fragrant snow into his arms.
After a moment of silence, Mo Juanxue suddenly shouted Mu Jingshu's name and burst into tears. Meanwhile, Xie Zimo could only hug her and let her beat his chest.
When had her feelings for Jingshu ever been that of a sister, or a Legacy …? Back then, the two of them had split up to make it easier for one person to survive. And now that she was still alive, although she was living in the darkness, she could be quiet … However, it was unclear whether he was dead or alive.
The next day.
Lu Shaoheng and Lin Xuan sat in the attic and ordered some side dishes, waiting for Yu Jing and Baili Kuangxue to get out of bed.
After calming herself down, Kui Xue opened the door and left the room. There were a lot of tables on the other side of the winding path. The waiter was busy running upstairs and downstairs.
Lu Shaoheng caught a glimpse of her and raised his glass to his lips. Baili Kui Xue replied with a smile, but there was a hidden killing intent in her eyes. She walked down the passage of the inn. Yu Jing just happened to walk out of the room and walked out gracefully. She ran into Baili Kui Xue, and with a snort, she quickly ran past her, reaching Lu Shaoheng's side before she could.
Baili Xiang Xue looked at the childish tranquility of the rain, sighing helplessly. Suddenly, she saw Mu Jingshu's figure on Yu Jing's body. It was so much so that Mo Tianxue had an illusion that the Jingfei in front of her was Mu Jingshu.
"Luo Ying, where do you want to go today? What do you want? " Lu Shaoheng's voice interrupted Bai Kuangxue's thoughts. Baili Xiang Xue turned her attention away from Yu Jing and looked at Lu Shaoheng.
"Do you give me everything I want?" A hundred miles away, the fragrant snow's smile was extremely alluring, captivating to the soul. Her clear eyes stared directly at Lu Shaoheng.
"Yes, as long as it's what you want."
"What if I say I want your life?" The smile on her snow-white lips deepened. She sat down, lightly swayed her teacup, and then drank it all in one gulp. It seemed like she was joking, but also very serious.
"How dare you!" Lin Xuan slammed the table and stood up, drawing his sword.
In the inn, the other guests all looked at them without knowing what was happening.
Lu Shaoheng looked askance at Lin Xuan, his gaze as sharp as a blade's edge, causing chills to run through one's body.
Lin Xuan's heart trembled. He put away his sword and sat down again.
"If you want my life and you can take it, then come and take it." Lu Shaoheng's words carried a hint of ridicule, as if he was ridiculing Fuxue's overestimation.
A silver needle flew out, and Kuangxue continued to sip her tea. As for Lu Shaoheng, a demonic red color seeped out of his face. What happened in that instant, Yu Jing didn't even see clearly. She panicked as she looked at Lu Shaoheng's bloodied face and was immediately stunned.
Lin Xuan shook, drew his sword, and placed it at the neck of Baili Kuangxue.
The sound of a palm hitting his face echoed, and his sword fell to the ground.
Baili Xiang Xue indifferently raised her head, the smile on her lips wantonly blossoming.
Lin Xuan, who had been kicked in the stomach, was lying not far away. He held his stomach and felt the pain that shook his entire body. He couldn't help but twitch. The pain made him temporarily forget about the heat on his face.
"Huang …" Wu Heng, why did you hit Lin Xuan for an outsider? " Yu Jing couldn't bear to watch any longer and hastily ran over to help Lin Xuan.
"Jing Er, help Lin Xuan see a doctor." Lu Shao's cold gaze fell on Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan clutched his stomach and lowered his head, not daring to look him in the eye. He didn't even know what he had done wrong. In all these years, he had never seen Lu Shaoheng so temperamental. Or perhaps it could be said that the current him was the real him.
Yu Jing looked at the injured Lin Xuan and felt her heart ache. She supported him and left the inn to find a doctor.
Kui Xue held the chopsticks in her hands and nibbled on some of the side dishes, treating Lu Shao as if he was air.
"You're very angry today, but I don't remember. Have I offended you before?" Lu Shaoheng lifted his chin and stared at the fragrant snow.
"Is that so? "Coincidentally, I don't remember either." Fifty kilometers of fragrant snow did not raise her eyes. Her voice was neither warm nor warm, and her mood was unclear.
Lu Shaoheng sneered, then suddenly bent his body over and reached out his hand to catch Baili Feixue's chin. He licked her lips across the table and tasted what remained of her lips.
Kui Xue reacted by pushing herself, and almost fell down. She looked at the person sitting opposite her, licking her lips, and said furiously, "You've offended me now."
"Oh, then you can get angry. "Or how do you want me to make it up to you?" Lu Shaoheng's smile made it hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. He looked at the Hundred Miles of Fragrance with interest. The Hundred Miles of Fragrance was his prey he wanted to capture. He liked to see her sulky, because sulking was more real than a fake smile.
"Shall we go to South Sky Mountain to relax?" "The pavilion at the top of the mountain has a bird's eye view of everything in the country." Without waiting for her to speak, Lu Shaoheng continued. He stood up and left the inn while holding the hand of Mo Jui Xue.
Baili Xiang Xue could have broken free, but because her meridians were clamped, she had no choice but to be controlled by others. She staggered along behind Lu Shaoheng. Lu Shaoheng walked all the way through the busy streets, passed a bamboo forest, and arrived at the foot of the mountain.
A waterfall, falling on my eyes. South of the Sky Mountain, green mountains and rivers, a dark fragrance drifting, cool breeze ease very intoxicating.
For the past four years, she had been wandering around Dreamland gambling den and the hidden place of Lu Zixu. She had never realized that she had missed out on so many beautiful sights.
It had been four years since she had left the Heyu tribe. Was the country of Liu her home? Or was it just a wandering area? It was said that in the Royal Territory, she was just a princess who had fled to another country. In the world that Lu Shaoheng controlled, even if she changed her name, she was still under Lu Shaoheng's feet.
Lu Shaoheng didn't notice the strangeness of Baili Feixue and followed her up the mountain. The mountain breeze carried the scent of plants, and the birds and beasts began to sing. The rugged roads and undulating rocks spread in the solid soil.
On the summit of South Sky Mountain, there was a pavilion, and that pavilion reflected the sky, making it seem like an illusion. The vermilion stone pillar had the words of the wind, flowers, snow and moon, and it looked lonely and desolate.
Fifty miles of fragrant snow walked over and stood in the pavilion, taking a bird's eye view of the land and city of that country.
The land of the Liu country was in sight. It was so big that it was astonishing. That was not something that could be described with words. The moment she saw it, Baili Xueyi could not help but be shocked. She never would have thought that the Jianghu Kingdom was so large and bustling.
Just as Kui Xue could see her god, the arrow left the bow had pierced through her hair, and her body slanted to the side as she fell into Lu Shaoheng's embrace. A few strands of hair floated in the air. If Lu Shaoheng hadn't pulled her away in time, that arrow might have pierced through her heart.
Kui Xue turned her head in astonishment, only to see a familiar black robe. The mask on that person's face caused her to lose all ability to speak. She watched him draw his arrow again and shoot it in her direction.
Unfortunately, before he could shoot out, Lu Shaoheng threw out some rocks to hit his wrist. Immediately after, Lu Shaoheng ran over and the two began to fight with bare hands.
Kui Xue stood on the spot, unable to react. Finally, she saw Lu Shaoheng chase that person as he walked into the distance.
Xie Zimo, who came along with Baili Kui Xue, was crawling on the ground not far away. He frowned as he looked at the person pretending to be him.
Who was that person? The arrow in his hand was the same assassin who did not show himself when he fell down the cliff. Why did he want to assassinate Baili Kui Xue, why did he want to assassinate them? And why pretend to be Liuchuan?
Could it be?
A bad idea appeared in Xie Zimo's heart. He watched as Lu Shaoheng chased the black clothed man into the distance, before his gaze landed on Baili Kuangxue.
