Yan Xu had rushed back to the capital overnight, and by the time he returned back to the capital, it had already been two days.

Mu Haolin had always been dreaming these past few days, and everything he had dreamt about were those things from back then, and it had been getting clearer and clearer, so much so that things happened when he was young, and they had even started to appear little by little. Mu Haolin had always felt that this was not a good omen, that only after a person had truly aged would he begin to continuously reminisce about the past.

It could even be said that he seemed to have lost all interest in life. Although Xiao Shunzi was not very smart, he could tell that the emperor seemed to be waiting for something.

It had been raining for the past few days and the humidity in the house was rather high. Xiao Shunzi was also a meticulous person, so he helped the emperor to expel the humidity bit by bit. Originally, Mu Haolin was just sitting on a chair to take a nap, but it was unknown if Shunzi heard wrongly.

He heard a very clear bell sound, and it sounded like he had been hearing it all along, but the distance was not too close, and in that moment, Xiao Shunzi did not know if he was confused, but Mu Haolin had already woken up, and waved at Xiao Shunzi, "Go and wait outside, if anyone comes, do not let him in, tell them we are resting."

Xiao Shunzi nodded his head, "Your majesty, your medicine is still cooking outside."

"Wait at the door, I'll call for you later. I want to be by myself for a while." Xiao Shunzi did not say much this time, but bowed towards Mu Haolin and left the room.

Xiao Shunzi originally wanted to stand at the door and wait, but he suddenly remembered that the emperor didn't like to drink medicine that was too hot, so he decided to bring the medicine over himself. It just so happened that the temperature outside was also very low, and the medicine would definitely become warm in a moment, that way the emperor might feel that it was better to drink it.

Xiao Shunzi thought about it, and decided to just do it. He felt that he would only be going for a while, there would definitely be no problems, so he decided to go now, but he didn't know that a person who shouldn't have appeared right after Xiao Shunzi left.

Sitting in the shadows, Mu Haolin's face was extremely ugly. The one who came in was Yan Xu, but this time, Yan Xu was not as arrogant as before, and even had a tired expression on his face. Mu Haolin laughed: "With this expression, are you done with the mission?"

Yan Xu said, "It's completed, does the emperor think that there will be a mission that I cannot complete?"

"But it looks like you've suffered a loss this time. Otherwise, aren't you bragging in front of me?"

"It is indeed a loss." Yan Xu honestly explained, "But now that the Ninth Prince is dead, it's not like I'm losing out to you, what do you say, your majesty?"

"Makes sense. Are you sure you're dead?"

"I'm sure, it's impossible for such a high cliff to exist. This time, I found a woman by Ninth Prince's side, that woman is very powerful, she has always been protecting Ninth Prince, it's precisely because of this woman that I'm in such a sorry state."

"A woman? "What's your identity?"

"I don't know who they are, but they are very powerful. Furthermore, they have used their hidden weapons well, so Ninth Prince cannot be underestimated. In short, more than half of my team have been killed this time."

"Looks like I have indeed suffered quite a bit. This is to prepare to ask for benefits from me."

"That's right, the Emperor has to reward his subordinate, right?"

Although Mu Haolin was still smiling, his expression had changed, "There are definitely benefits, but you have to make sure that Ninth Prince is dead, otherwise, you will know …"

Yan Xu nodded, "This subordinate is certain."

Mu Beiche was originally prepared to help with Mu Haolin's body, but after hearing that Mu Haolin's health was very poor these few days, and that there was nothing he could do even if he invited a lot of imperial doctors, Mu Beiche wanted to ask about royal father's condition, and then ask Bai Yixuan if he had any other methods. She wanted to knock on the door, but just as she was about to do so, she heard voices from inside the house.

Other than Mu Haolin's voice, there was also another voice that was extremely unfamiliar. It was very obvious that it was not Xiao Shunzi's voice, but a healthy man's voice, and one could tell that this person was extremely familiar with the royal father, and that his words were a little unrestrained. However, the content of their words caught Mu Beiche's attention, especially that sentence about the death of the Ninth Prince.

There was no Ninth Prince in the Imperial Hall right now, so the only possibility was that the Ninth Prince could be Mu Yefan. So why did this person have to report to Mu Haolin about this matter?

looked towards the door, but didn't see anything. However, he had clearly heard the voice just now, and it seemed like he had also seen a black shadow. Could it be that he had truly been blinded?

The door was pushed open, and Mu Haolin looked at Xiao Shunzi who was standing at the entrance and said, "Come in."

Xiao Shunzi never thought that the Emperor would actually open the door himself, so he quickly walked in with fear and trepidation, and then placed the medicine on the table. There was a strange smell in the room, and Xiao Shunzi's nose was very sensitive.

's eyes flashed, although it was only for an instant, it was still enough to scare Xiao Shunzi. Xiao Shunzi quickly knelt down, even if there really was someone who came to the emperor, there was no need to tell him, why did they start acting impudent so quickly? Seeing that they were about to cry, Xiao Shunzi finally squeezed out with a few words. Your Majesty, please spare my life. "

Mu Haolin sighed, "There's nothing wrong with what I want your life for, quickly get up, go back and rest, you don't need to wait on me here."

"But …"

"No buts. Go on."

looked at the nearby dark corner and sighed. What exactly was he doing now? Although he had heard the outcome of what Yan Xu had said, the current Mu Haolin did not feel happy at all.

He remembered how good his brother was to him, and also remembered that the child Royal Brother liked the most was this Xiao Jiu. Xiao Jiu had been pleasing to people since he was young, and Royal Brother had always said that Xiao Jiu looked exactly like him when he was young.

However, Mu Haolin had never admitted it, but instead felt that the Royal Brother was just teasing him. Back then, he was not as tired as he was now.

Even though he resented the fact that he was inferior to the Royal Brother ever since he was young, it was true that the person he worshipped the most had always been the Royal Brother. Now, the last relative of the Royal Brother in this world had completely died as well.

When Bai Yixuan and Mu Yefan exited the spatial space, it was already night. The jade pendant on Bai Yixuan's neck was still emitting a gentle light, but Mu Yefan still felt that it was very mystical.

Initially, they thought that the comfortable feeling they had wouldn't exist once it left the space, but they didn't expect that even now, his body was still very comfortable. Only then did they realize that they were at the bottom of the cliff.

Raising his head, she could not see any end to it. Just by thinking about it, Bai Yixuan knew how tall this mountain was, it could be considered that she had escaped death twice, and she still needed to thank this jade pendant.

Mu Yefan also felt that he was lucky, hence he frowned, and sighed in the end. Since he was alive, he must do what he had done.

"A Mu, we are too lucky. Usually when I went to find you, I did not feel this mountain was this high …"

"Those at the back of the mountain have always been taller than the ones in front of us. I've discovered them before, but I didn't expect them to be …"

"I didn't think I would fall from this place!"

Although the outside air was not as bright as the space, and although the space was always filled with sunlight, Bai Yixuan felt that this somewhat cold night and the stars in the sky were also extremely beautiful. This was the true feeling of being alive, this was the evidence that both people existed in this world, this was the true feeling of Bai Yixuan.

Mu Yefan laughed. Like Bai Yixuan, he was also lying on the slightly wet ground. Her wounds had all healed, and her body wasn't cold. He raised his head to look at the stars in the sky before turning his head to look at Bai Yixuan.

Bai Yixuan was really good-looking. In Mu Yefan's heart, the stars in the sky could not compare to Bai Yixuan, so the thing he wanted to do the most was to take revenge and be with Bai Yixuan alone. It would be fine as long as she was together with Bai Yixuan, like Bai Yixuan had said.

In the past, Mu Yefan had never thought that when he had enemies, he felt that his face was too ugly, and Bai Yixuan was so good-looking at everything, she felt that she was not worthy of Bai Yixuan at all.

However, now that Mu Yefan's face had recovered, he felt that he was still not worthy of Bai Yixuan, because he had shouldered too many responsibilities. These things made Mu Yefan feel that he had no chance to take a breather, let alone being responsible for Bai Yixuan's future.

The future was already a variable. Mu Yefan could not be sure of this now, so he could only temporarily forget how much he liked Bai Yixuan.

"A Mu, why aren't you talking anymore? Hurry up and get up, we need to find a way out of here. I think my big brother might already be prepared to skin me alive."

Mu Yefan laughed and stood up, extending his hand to pull Bai Yixuan away. Bai Yixuan brushed off the mud on her body, and felt that his clothes were useless on him, because they were dirty again. It seemed that she had to change her style in the future, and not always wear white clothes.

The two of them walked for a few steps and found that the bottom of the cliff was also very big. The surrounding plants were very dense and they couldn't see the end of it. Just when the two of them felt that their legs were about to break …

The result was that the path ahead was blocked by a huge rock, but they quickly realised that there was someone trying to break this rock on the other side. Bai Yixuan and Mu Yefan could see the worry in each other's eyes, could it be that the stone was still hiding Black Man?
