Huang Tu gently placed Yun Ruoleng on the bed, then slowly swiped his finger across Yun Ruoleng's face and pulled the multicolored hair that had fallen on her face behind her petite ears.
"You …" Yun Ruoleng was stunned by this scene. She had always thought that the Phoenix Diagram was an extremely well-hidden person, but she never thought that he would even be able to hide this …
Based on the situation just now, Yun Ruoleng was even more certain of the hidden secrets of the Phoenix Map. No wonder no one came to save her after she was taken away from the army camp.
"Rest well, don't run around." Phoenix Diagram smiled at her, a complex look of hesitation flashing past his eyes, but in the next moment, Phoenix Diagram stood up and walked out.
Yun Ruoleng's expression was extremely ugly, wanting to stop him but he found out that he couldn't make the slightest sound. His eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he unknowingly fell asleep on the bed.
An Yue bid his farewell to Jun Qingshang and An Ying. Bringing the two An Ying Guards who had been working with him for many years, they swiftly departed towards the capital of the Yue Ling — The Imperial City.
They did not hear the slightest bit of news about Yun Ruoleng. At the beginning, An Yue thought that the Phoenix Diagram had hidden it too well, but later on, even he himself began to suspect that he had made a mistake.
The Phoenix Diagram did not bring her to the Imperial City at all?
An Yue felt that the closer he got to the imperial city, the more flustered he became. He was afraid that his judgement was wrong and that it would delay the time to rescue Yun Ruoleng.
He was busy looking for Yun Ruoleng, and Jun Qingshang was not idle either. This time, Phoenix Map had taken the person away, and the result of his anger was his revenge. As the soul soldiers of Heaven's Awakening, they naturally vented their anger on those innocent soldiers, and this group of soldiers themselves weren't Heaven's Awakening, but …
Jun Qingshang issued several orders, and surrounded and annihilated the soldiers of Yue Ling. In four or five days, he seized back the two cities he had lost. However, Yue Ling was in a predicament, and disagreements began to appear within the army camp.
"Your Royal Highness, should we continue our attack?" Yang Xiong rubbed his hands together as he looked at Jun Qingshang, ready to make a move.
Jun Qingshang coldly glanced at him, did not say a word, and held the most recent secret report in his hand. His brows slightly knitted, and threw the letter in his hand to Yang Xiong: "It's true that the Phoenix Diagram is in the Imperial City, but Ruo Er is not here …"
"Wangfei is clever and clever, adding on to that, the Phoenix Diagram doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards her, it should be safe." Yang Xiong's restless heart was like a bucket of cold water, and he lost all interest.
Jun Qingshang did not say anything, but his expression was somewhat ugly. Waving his hand, he indicated for Yang Xiong to go out, and stood in front of the table with his hands behind his back for a long time. His mind was constantly thinking about why the Phoenix Diagram wanted to catch Yun Ruoleng again and again.
Yun Ruoleng slowly awakened with a moan like a kitten. Then, as if he had thought of something, he rolled over and sat up from the bed. Looking at the pitch-black area, he slightly frowned.
The door was pushed open carefully. A young girl holding a lantern walked in and lit the candles in the room with a match. After a while, the room became bright again.
"The young lady has woken up." The lady was none other than Zhu Lan. After Zhu Lan extinguished the lantern in his hand, he turned around and smiled lightly at her.
Yun Ruoleng still had a cold expression, his gaze coldly falling on Zhu Lan's face. "This lady is not in a good mood, please stay away from me!"
Zhu Lan smiled and replied: "No matter how unhappy this lady's mood is, she has to use the dinner. Otherwise, the emperor's mood will be bad, and the bad outcome will take this servant's life."
Zhu Lan's words were not an exaggeration, but when Yun Ruoleng heard these words, he felt that it was extremely ironic. Yun Ruoleng, who was originally in a bad mood, instantly turned malevolent, "If you continue to talk about him, this lady will take your life right now!"
Zhu Lan's expression congealed, and seeing that Yun Ruoleng was not joking, he subconsciously glanced outside the door. Hearing this, Huang Tu who was standing outside the door did not get angry, but instead laughed. The spirit demon's face was full of smiles, he nodded towards Zhu Lan, who happily retreated a few steps.
These series of actions caused the originally enraged Yun Ruoleng to instantly freeze, as his brain continuously pondered whether or not there was anyone outside the door.
"It's useless to be angry." A figure appeared at the doorway. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly as she ignored him, looking extremely proud. Yun Ruoleng, who was originally angry, suddenly felt a burst of hunger and could not help but take another look at the food in Phoenix Diagram's hands. "Since you've already brought it, this wangfei will no longer be polite."
"You're welcome." Huang Tu sat on the side of the table and waved at Yun Ruoleng, gesturing for her to come over.
Yun Ruoleng arrogantly snorted and did not go over, her gaze landed on the nearby Zhu Lan. Zhu Lan quickly passed over a handkerchief to help Yun Ruoleng clean his hands, and then Yun Ruoleng happily ran to the table and grabbed the food inside the box with one hand. It was the same as the meal she had eaten today, both were of Heaven's Initiation dishes.
"Ha!" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "Your Majesty sure is considerate to actually prepare such a good meal for this wangfei."
"As long as Ruo Er likes it." Phoenix Diagram did not seem to hear Yun Ruoleng's mocking tone, and laughed: "All these things contain spiritual energy, it is beneficial to you, eat more."
Yun Ruoleng's hand that was holding onto the chopsticks paused, and he looked at Phoenix Diagram with a smile that was not a smile.
Seeing her pick up the chopsticks and put them down, Huang Xuan could not help but be slightly startled: "What happened?"
"What are you trying to do with me?" Yun Ruoleng said straightforwardly.
Feng Tu laughed lightly. From start to finish, this little girl had this kind of personality and she was never someone who would suffer a loss. He had been caught twice by surprise and was able to sit down and talk so well.
"Say something!" Yun Ruoleng looked at his terrified smile and slammed the table.
"What do you think it is?" The expression on Phoenix Diagram's face remained the same.
However, it was not Yun Ruoleng's turn. The usually calm her started to let her thoughts run wild, and when she regained her senses, she felt cold sweat trickling down her back. This was because as she thought about it, she recalled her dream before she woke up. "Did you kill Qing Sun?"
"If Jun Qingshang was so easy to kill, we wouldn't have needed to spend so much energy on him!"
It was true that Jun Qingshang was not easy to kill, but based on his undetectable method, killing him was not impossible.
Not knowing why, although Phoenix Diagram had said those words of ridicule, it had caused Yun Ruoleng's heart to slowly calm down: "If I didn't kill him, I wanted to use me as a hostage!"
Phoenix Diagram smiled and did not refute Yun Ruoleng. He took out the dishes in the food box and placed them on the table one by one: "Let's eat first. We can talk after dinner if there's anything to say."
Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly, and began to eat.
Actually, Yun Ruoleng was not in the mood to eat. If not for to let him relax his vigilance and take this chance to escape, she would not need to put on an act.
Perhaps with the lesson from last time, Phoenix Diagram had long since been mentally prepared.
Looking at Yun Ruoleng's heroic appearance, his brows slightly raised, he slowly poured her a cup of tea and passed it in front of her.
Yun Ruoleng was not courteous and continued to drink.
When Zhu Lan saw this, he was stunned. He could not believe what he saw.
The Emperor was a ruler of the kingdom. He was able to speak to him in such a tone without being punished. Probably only the lady before him was left.
What was even weirder was that this peerless woman was from the Heavenly Enlightenment Kingdom.
After eating his fill, Yun Ruoleng carried his stomach and made an inviting gesture towards the Phoenix Map, the intent to chase people away was very obvious.
The corner of Huang Tu's mouth raised slightly as he chuckled: "You are really unreasonable!"
"Don't take me for a fool." Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "Don't think that I don't know how difficult it is to get out of the palace after entering. Furthermore, you have sent an extremely skilled maid to watch over me, it would be weird if it isn't a house arrest! Since you are so heartless, why should I? "
"You …" Huang Tu frowned, his expression extremely unsightly. He stared coldly at Yun Ruoleng and the aura around him spread out, causing the air to instantly become oppressive.
