Ling Qing looked at the ice-cold expression with a smile, not asking anything in the end.

Within the Royal Capital, Wen Hou returned.

The king had prepared a short hunt to welcome the cold weather in Far Fangfang City, and also to celebrate the recovery of money by Ling Xue and the extermination of the bandits.

In fact, the hunt had come so late that it had taken almost a year.

At that time, Ling Qing had just transmigrated over, and Ling Xuanxin had once said that when Ling Xue returned, all of them, brothers of similar age, would go hunt in Mount Gu Jue.

Although the country was very busy these days, Ling Chen still managed to spare three days. He gave the imperial edict to all the officials to accompany him into the mountain.

It was rare to see all the civil and military officials accompanying them.

The beasts of the mountain were especially ferocious. Many civil servants were ignorant of martial arts and could only be protected by the guards. It was a waste of manpower and resources.

Only the bodyguards that Ling Xiang had encountered knew that the target of this hunt was not a wild beast, but a person.

After obtaining the top-secret information of the white-clothed red tassel and the others, the officials of the Royal City were fortunate enough to have gotten the information "close to the water tower first" and had already been thoroughly investigated. As for the foreign officials that Mo Yang and Qing Yu investigated, they would have to wait five to six months before they could come out with a final result.

However, for this group of officials who were accompanying them in the hunt, Ling Kui did not need to list out any of the crimes or spend any time to search for evidence. As long as they entered Gu Jueshan, he would not come out.

This move was extremely vicious.

Moreover, it was inconceivably convenient, and it looked down on the laws of the country to an unbelievable degree.

But is it really okay to be so simple and crude?

In any case, Ling Xiang was a king's law. He was too lazy to waste any more time and energy on these officials, so he directly ordered them to be killed.

The personal guards of the imperial guards were all masters of the imperial guards. They didn't even need the King's eight personal guards to personally act.

The Fourth Marquis was also gathered.

Warm, cold, aloof, gentle and kind Xue Hou, beautiful and ruthless Hua Hou, pure and cute Lord Grim.

The four of them followed behind Ling Chen, but unfortunately, they didn't encounter a single wild beast after travelling for half a day.

Because the king's dragon aura had arrived, the beasts had long since fled the forest. The forest was so quiet that only the chirping of birds could be heard.

"Disperse from here and come back before nightfall." The imperial guard, Red Tassel, walked to a wide area and spoke to the officials accompanying him.

Amongst the hundred officials, even the generals were fearful of the hunt. After all, this was Gu Jueshan, the place that trained courage and allowed one to see through one's ability the most. Compared to battling on the battlefield, the lone absolute mountain was even more cruel.

The bright yellow tent was quickly set up, and the Fourth Marquis left with them, ready to hunt down the fiercest of the wild beasts.

Ling Xue and Wen Han were together, while Flower Speaker brought Wenren Lord Grim to the west.

Lord Grim had grown quite a bit taller. He looked like an adult now, but his eyes were still a bit childish.

He had only walked a few steps when he suddenly said a few words to Flower Speaker. He then turned around and returned to Ling Zui Bing's side. "Your Majesty, I think it's best if I accompany you. I'll protect you."

Knowing that he was scared, Ling Ying wanted to use his royal aura to protect himself. He looked at the sky and said solemnly, "Lord Grim, if you come back empty-handed at night, the one who will lose face is Wenren Family."

"Your Majesty, I …"

Ever since he was young, he had never participated in any big or small hunt. Not only because he was afraid of monsters, but because he was too soft-hearted to see any small animals get hurt.

"Lord Grim, if you don't leave, I won't be bringing you along." Flower Speaker lazily leaned against a tree and said to Lord Grim.

"Wait for me!" This was the first time he came to the Gu Jue Mountain to hunt. If no one brought him along, he would definitely not be able to return.

Seeing that the officials had all dispersed, Ling Jingjing finally walked into the mountain forest with slow steps.

He did not bring any bow and arrow weapons with him. He was only holding a white jade bone fan. It seemed that he was not here to hunt, but was here to sightsee.

Behind him followed the red tassel and the green shadow. Although the king's majesty could cause hundreds of beasts to fear and fear him, they still had to take precautions.

In many places, not only the birds and beasts were in danger, but also the poisonous flowers and plants.

The red tassel and the green shadow saw that the king seemed to be looking at a spirit tree. They exchanged glances, and sure enough, the king was still thinking about Ling Tianqing.

But... If he went there, he would only be able to see the phoenix, but he would also not be able to see Ling Tian Qing.

The phoenix's cry could be vaguely heard even though the Spirit Tree was only ten li away from the mountain road.

Ling Xuanxin suddenly thought of that night.

He heard the phoenix cry and thought that the girl was already dead. Who would have thought that she was trying to climb onto the back of the phoenix with her clothes all messed up …

From the look of her, she was not the least bit afraid of the Phoenix's iron claw and golden beak.

Now that she thought about it, Ling Tianqing was sometimes rather interesting as well. She researched random things and said crazy things, but he was always unwilling to believe that she was a human from another planet …

From a distance, one could see a few hundred feet tall spirit tree. Under the gentle breeze, the leaves and branches all emitted the pleasant fragrance of plants and vegetation.

Ling Chen looked at the spirit tree from afar. The phoenix wings were faintly discernible on the thick tree trunk.

A clear cry echoed throughout the entire valley.

Wherever the emperor went, all of the beasts would retreat. However, if it was a king, the auspicious bird or beast would appear.

The phoenix's wings were like golden, flowing sunlight. They were sparkling, so bright that it was impossible to see its feathers in detail under the sun.

Standing on the huge rock on which he had stood that day, Ling Xuanxin raised his head to look at the phoenix spreading its wings and flying high into the sky.

"Wah …" "Big bird, fly slower …"

Suddenly, in the wind brought by the Phoenix wings, a young girl's voice could be heard.

It was unknown whether it was because of the long feathers of the phoenix reflected in Ling Xuanxuan's pitch-black eyes, or because a meteor shower passed by, flashing with an extremely dazzling light.

When the red tassel and green shadow heard this sound, their hearts suddenly stopped. They almost couldn't believe it, thinking that they were hearing things.

"Your Majesty …"

Green Shadow was cautious by nature, afraid that he would be cheated. Before he could stop him, his bright yellow robe fluttered in the wind and he had already flown up.

Ling Xiang was like a phoenix in the sky as he chased after the phoenix. Without borrowing any external force, he was actually able to twist his body slightly and control the phoenix's direction in the air.

Stretching out his hand to grab onto the golden phoenix tail's wings, Ling Lingzhi flipped himself over and saw a young lady grabbing onto the phoenix's slender neck. Closing her eyes, she cried out loudly, "Big bird, oh big bird, I asked you to bring me out of the mountain. Stop it, I'm going to throw up... Your feathers are dirty... "Don't peck me …"

Ling Xingran was already standing on the back of the phoenix. His long body was jade, and his robes were fluttering. His pitch-black pupils reflected the little figure of the girl.

His clothes were ragged and his hair was disheveled... She was actually hiding in Gu Jueshan!

No wonder no one could find her even after searching everywhere.

This time, he had finally caught it!

The phoenix circled around the spirit tree, crying out loudly from time to time. The wind from its wings caused the spirit tree to tremble. Ling Tian Qing was finally unable to take it anymore. The hand holding onto the feather on its neck loosened and fell to the ground.

"Ah …" Ah … "Ugh …" Screaming shrilly, Ling Qing vomited out in mid-air. Motherf * cker, she still could not endure the phoenix's random flight.

She wasn't knocked to the ground, but was robbed in midair.

This time, she threw up all the filth she had on her bright yellow robe. She actually didn't throw the invasive man away like before.

This scene was so familiar.

To the guards who were standing on the rocks, it was as if they were familiar with what had just happened yesterday.

At that time, the little queen who had tried to sneak away, fearlessly wanted to climb onto the back of the phoenix and let it carry her over the lone mountain, but the king caught her red-handed.

At that time, the Phoenix Body that no one was sure of was thrown into Ling Zui's arms by the Spirit Bird. The future Queen Mother also vomited like this, and then the Scarlet Face Pill took effect for the first time …

He remembered every detail very clearly. The current Empress …

He was still dressed strangely, and still vomited until the sky went dark.

However, he was never thrown down again.

As if afraid that she would disappear all of a sudden, Ling Xuanxin held her tightly in her arms.

Green Shadow and Red Tassel looked at each other with glee. Very good, the king knows that he loves women. This time, he will not lose them …

However, before they could go up to pay their respects to the little mistress, Ling Xuanxin suddenly waved his hand again, leaving her behind.

"Chi la!" The sleeve of Ling Tian's Dragon Robe had already been torn off by Ling Tian in disgust. Ling Lingzhi's face was once again filled with anger.

He was unable to describe the feeling he felt in that moment.

When he heard her voice, he was shocked and frightened — afraid it was his hallucination again.

When he saw her, he was pleasantly surprised …

Also, she hid and refused to see him. That anger …

Ling Zhi had probably never experienced such complicated mental activities in his life. When he saw Ling Qing's damn face, he could not control the anger in his heart and wanted to ruthlessly throw her to death.

"This subordinate pays his respects to the young master!" Green Shadow and Red Tassel knelt on one knee, worshipping the young lady who was still retching on the ground.

Ah!" As if he had seen a ghost, Ling Tian Qing suddenly screamed when he saw two handsome guards.

Then, the man's dangerous voice sounded out from behind Ling Tian Qing, "How have you been?"

"Ling …" We'll meet in person! " Ling Tianqing looked like she had seen a ghost in broad daylight. She turned her head and saw the handsome man, and it was only after a while that she called out to him.

Although... Ling Tian Qing had already mentally prepared himself, but when he looked into that pair of cold eyes once again, his scalp was numb and his entire body was trembling.

He wanted nothing more than to hide under the phoenix's wings.

Ling Xin slowly revealed his white teeth as he faced the phoenix body that he had lost and regained. However, his eyes were still gloomy.

Finally, he caught her.

Under the waterfall in the valley, there was a layer of imperial guards a thousand meters away, preventing the officials of the Hunting Squad from entering by accident.

The sunlight was exceptionally bright. Following the sound of the bird, the young girl's tender voice came from inside, "Save me …" Tyrant killed... "Ahhh …

"Putong." The girl was stripped clean in the blink of an eye and was thrown into a clear mountain spring.
