Upon seeing Xuanyuan Mo, Phoenix Five immediately stood aside docilely. Long Yue and Huai'er also stopped fighting at once. They stood on both sides respectively and saluted with a bow, "Greetings, Your Highness."
Xuanyuan Mo paid no heed to them and directly walked to Duanmu Xi, saying anxiously, "Xi, are you OK?"
Seeing the anxious face of Xuanyuan Mo, Duanmu Xi slightly curled her lips and shook her head.
Liqing sitting on the ground noticed that Xuanyuan Mo didn't bother to glance at her at all. A glimmer of resentment flashed across her eyes.
After making sure that Duanmu Xi was fine, Xuanyuan Mo finally turned to look at Liqing and Huai'er, saying coldly, "How dare you fight in my mansion? Who gave you the courage?"
His voice was deep and cold, which seemed to be made from under the ground.
Xuanyuan Mo's cold voice made Liqing tremble. She looked at Xuanyuan Mo, saying with grievances, "Duanmu
Huai'er looked at Liqing with a serious face, "Do you really think it through? You win something and lose something. You should know the side effect of the Pregnancy Worm, right?"Since she could get the Pregnancy Worm, she should know how serious the consequence of being invaded by the Pregnancy Worm was.Liqing cracked a bitter smile, "Does it matter whether I think it through or not? I have to do this."Then, Liqing opened the jade bottle on the table.Huai'er grabbed Liqing's hand and stopped her from acting further, "You don’t have to. You have another choice. You can choose..."Before Huai'er finished talking, she was interrupted by Liqing, "Who do you think gave me the Pregnancy Worm?"Pregnancy Worm was so rare. Liqing was not from the Wilderness Holy Region at all. How could she have such a thing?Huai'er seemed to think of something and then said with a frown, "It's Region Mas
In the study of the Shengyu Palace, the imperial palace of the Baihu Empire.Xuanyuan Hao stood before the window and looked at the moon in the sky, his eyes glistening with fierceness. The hand placed behind his back was balled into a fist with blue veins standing up on the back of his hand.The stone door of the secret chamber behind suddenly rumbled. Xuanyuan Hao turned around all of a sudden.A person wearing a black cloak suddenly walked out of the secret chamber.Upon seeing the comer, Xuanyuan Hao slightly frowned, "It's you."That person gently took off the hood, exposing her face. She knelt on one knee and hung her head, "Greetings, Region Master."Xuanyuan Hao looked at Huai'er and slightly narrowed his eyes, "It's been so late. Are you here to update me on your task?"Huai'er looked ashamed and hung her head again, "Region Master, please forgive me. I haven't finished the tas
"Sit down first." Liqing asked Lishang to be seated.Lishang didn't move but said with a frown, "Just cut to the chase!"As Lishang didn't act, Liqing stood up and made him sit on the round stool. And she sat opposite him."Shang, I was wrong before. Today, I would like to make an apology to you." Then, Liqing stood up, poured a cup of tea and passed it to Lishang.Lishang looked at the docile expression of Liqing and his grim face got relaxed slowly. He took the tea from Liqing's hand and looked at her, saying with a sigh, "I'm glad that you can admit your mistake. Prince Zhan and Princess Consort Zhan are both kind people. As long as you behave well and do not cause trouble, they won't make things difficult for you."Hearing Lishang mention Xuanyuan Mo and Duanmu Xi, Liqing had a glint of resentment in her eyes. She raised her head and looked at Lishang, saying with her lips curled, "You are right. I was wrong
On the night, Long Yue sneaked into the Yonghe Palace with a dozen secret guards.Long Yue quietly sealed the sleeping acupoints of the two palace maids keeping watch at night and sneaked into the bedding palace of Consort Hui.Upon entering the room, he saw Consort Hui sleeping soundly in bed and sealed her sleeping acupoint across the air.Long Yue searched Consort Hui's bedding palace for fifteen minutes or so but he still found nothing abnormal. In the end, he could only leave resignedly.No sooner had Long Yue left than Zhou Manyun on the bed opened her eyes. Her coquettish eyes glittered fiercely. She pressed her hand on an insignificant bump at the corner of the bed. An entrance appeared in the wall near the bed at once.As soon as Zhou Manyun went through the entrance, the wall near the bed was restored to its original look.A while later, Zhou Manyun appeared in the study of the Shengyu Pal
The next morning, Long Yue arrived at Xuelan House."Your Highnesses, I have something to report."Upon hearing the voice, Xuanyuan Mo opened his eyes and lowered his head to take a look at the woman whose eyes were somewhat red and swollen. With a glint of pity flashing across his eyes, he planted a kiss on her forehead. She cried for half a night yesterday and didn't fall asleep until almost dawn.He got off the bed gently, put on his clothes and walked out. Upon seeing Long Yue, he winked at Long Yue.Long Yue immediately took the hint and walked to Xuanyuan Mo. He was about to speak when he heard Duanmu Xi's voice."Is it Long Yue? Has he got any information about Third Master?" Her cold voice was mixed with anxiety.Upon hearing that, Long Yue took a glance at Xuanyuan Mo only to see that the latter knitted his eyebrows subtly."Let's go inside first," Xuanyuan Mo said. Then, he en
Hearing that Chen was unwilling to acknowledge him as the master, Situ Kong felt a bit aggrieved. Why was it so difficult for him to take the disciples he had had his eye on? Originally, he had taken great pains to make Xi accept him as her master. Now, likewise, Chen didn't take him seriously either.Duanmu Xi was also taken aback to hear that. Then, she took a glance at Situ Kong and saw that he was staring at her and Chen with an aggrieved look. She was amused.She bent down to look at Chen, saying with a smile, "Chen, why don't you want to acknowledge Chief Master as your master? He is the chief elder of the Refining Pharmacists' Guild and the top refining pharmacist in the Hantian Continent. Many people want to acknowledge him as their master, but he never agrees. If you can learn how to refine medicine from him, you'll surely be able to be as competent as him in the future."Hearing Duanmu Xi's words, Situ Kong nodded again and the
At night, Xuanyuan Mo took Lishang, Yu Ying, Long Yue and the others into the Yonghe Palace.It was oddly quiet in the Yonghe Palace. There was no guard on patrol at all.Xuanyuan Mo frowned and waved at Lishang and the others. Lishang and the others immediately took the hint and entered the Yonghe Palace quietly.Xuanyuan Mo didn't follow inside. Instead, he turned around and went in another direction.In the study of the Shengyu Palace, a man in black suddenly appeared. He was good-looking and his amber eyes glistened in the dark study.The man in black was Xuanyuan Mo who got out of the Yonghe Palace.Xuanyuan Mo glanced around the study of the Shengyu Palace and then fixed his gaze on a painting on the wall. It was a portrait of a woman, who was wearing a delicate wedding dress and a golden phoenix coronet on her head with a makeup-free pretty face. Her strikingly beautiful face featured black e
In Ximo House of Prince Zhan's mansion.No sooner had Situ Kong gotten out of the elixir refining room than he came to the main hall in a hurry."Xi, you wanna talk with me?"Duanmu Xi looked at Situ Kong and nodded, "Chief Master, please be seated first."Situ Kong heard that and then sat opposite Duanmu Xi.After Situ Kong sat down, Duanmu Xi said, "Chief Master, I've got clues about Third Master's whereabouts."Situ Kong directly stood up in delight and then stared at Duanmu Xi, saying with excitement, "Where is she?"Seeing Situ Kong's excited expression, Duanmu Xi felt a bit worried and then took a deep breath, saying, "Chief Master, calm down."Situ Kong looked at Duanmu Xi's grim countenance and then sat down again, saying with a frown, "Is your Third Master in danger?"Judging from Xi's grim face, something untoward must have happened to Mei Luo.
