The silver needle still kept color pale silver without any change as it inserted into the passion fruit.
Xiao Zhouzi inserted the silver needle into the appetizing Tuhua Fish, still nothing changed.
First Prince looked very happy and said calmly, "I'll have a try since you're so kind to me."
Actually, passion fruit and Tuhua Fish were also difficult to get.
Frankly speaking, First Prince was very glad. He resented Hua Qiyue because she let him lose face. However, what Hua Xiaoyi had done made him very happy.
A maidservant standing aside grabbed a knife at once and carefully cut the passion fruit open, only to see its pulp was light yellow. The smell of the pulp was stronger which made the guests curious about the fruit.
People inside the boat could still hear various sounds from outside. Hua Qiyue calmly took half a glass of wine. In fact, she let First Prince lose his face because she had her own re
"First Prince, I am definitely right. That is Ghastly Tear Grass!" Hua Xiaoyi shouted, not afraid to show off her knowledge. Hua Qiyue was all smiles. "Third Sister, how do you know what that is? Have you seen Ghastly Tear Grass before?" Hua Xiaoyi's expression changed as she stuttered. "I... I accidentally smelled it before!" "First Prince, this fragrance resembles that of a normal spice." At this time, Imperial Physician Wang opened his mouth to talk, holding up the leaf resembling that of Ghastly Tear Grass. "Ghastly Tear Grass produces a strange fragrance that entices people. Its poison requires six hours to take effect, but First Prince had only been seating here for less than two hours. Furthermore... there is a light white stripe on this grass, see... No such white stripes exist in the middle of Ghastly Tear Grass. This type of grass is the Sword Leaf Grass, a grass with similar fragrance and appearance to that of Ghastly Tear Grass.
Princess Huiling drank tea and heaved a sigh of relief. "Oh... Much more sober, hehe, everyone is here." "Princess, you are better? How about you eat some fruits?" Hua Qiyue asked quietly. Princess Huiling squinted her eyes and mumbled. "Fruit? What fruit... is delicious? Oh... what fruit did my sister like?" Hearing that Princess Huiling mentioned Princess Huizhen, everyone's expression changed. From their perspectives, Princess Huiling was not sober yet and was still drunk. Her blush made her seem drunk. Princess Huiling held Hua Qiyue's hand, "Hua Qiyue, is that you?" "Yes." "Hehe, do you know? I... I had a dream last night. I dreamt of my sister. Guess what did she say?" Hua Qiyue replied calmly, "What did she say?" Prince Nan watched the scene quietly. This woman had conquered challenges after challenges. She never asked for help as she was
"Your Royal Highness as Prince Nan had said, your arbitrary decision means that you view lives as nothing! Even though my life worths less than that of the Princess, I am still a citizen of Changjing Kingdom. I can promise you with my life that this bloody will is fake, and that the princess' injury is self-induced!" Hua Qiyue explained coldly, no longer calm. Facing the aggressive First Prince, her cold demeanor made her seem even more dominant than the noble Prince. "Ridiculous! How dare you talk to me like this!" First Prince raged. He had positive feelings towards this woman before, but all of that was replaced with natural fear now. The woman's eyes had an aura of confidence and strength that induced fear in even the First Prince. "How dare you lie when you obviously hurt the princess?" The Prince's eyes were red with rage. "What evidence to prove that she hurt herself and that this bloody will is fake?" "Qiy
"Haha, there is no need for such courtesy, Princess Jinghua. I had long heard that there is a genius Qi Artist in Changjing Kingdom, a female one still. However, I didn't expect her to be someone so pretty!" Morong Fuyi smiled, crystal delight shining in her eyes. Emperor Changlong's heart trembled. Hua Qiyue is a genius from Changjing Kingdom. He will not bear to marry her out of the country even if Morong Fuyi did liked her. Emperor Changlong had long considered Hua Qiyue's marriage. However, it was not time yet for him to appoint a marriage partner to her. Emperor Changlong smiled a sense of crisis. "Thank you for the compliment." Hua Qiyue was humble yet dignified. Even Mo Erhe nodded without saying much. The nervous atmosphere due to Princess Huiling was lightened from the conversation. Changlong Emperor apologized to Morong Fuyi about the matter concerning Princess Huiling. Afterward, he ushered the dancers
Then if Hua Qiyue married abroad, how about Prince Nan? Would he never get married throughout his whole life after he lost face? Everyone was looking forward to the result of this competition. Both Yun Shimo and Murong Fuyi stepped back, and then drew their swords. The sword of Yun Shimo was very short but sharp, and the slightly black sword was covered with cold black light. As soon as the short sword came out, sword pressure spread. Murong Fuyi was shocked and it also made him felt surprised. Sword pressure could represent a person's ability. Although Murong Fuyi was a genius in the field of Qi Art, in front of Yun Shimo, he was as small as a drop in the ocean. Yun Shimo's sprit pressure was so strong that Murong Fuyi felt that his anima energy was trembling in his body, because of the anima energy Yun Shimo sent out. It was surprised that there was such a powerful Qi Artist in Changjing Kingdom!
Shui Qianruo said indifferently, "I don't understand Prince Nan's words." He looked very pale. "What's wrong with you? How can you talk to something that doesn't understand people's words? You are beating a dead horse." Hua Qiyue gave Prince Nan an angry stare and she pouted, "But if someone wants to hurt my son, then I won't be soft on him again. Of course, new accounts should be dealt with together with old accounts. It is just not the right time." Hua Qiyue glanced at Shui Qianruo coldly. When she was about to leave, suddenly, something was whistling and rushing toward them forcefully! The thing made the air drone all the time. It squeezed the natural front air and made the air scatter like waves of water! It was a master's spirit weapon! Hua Qiyue raised her eyes slightly, seeing a spirit sword rushing on her quickly. The sword body sometimes turned into a dragon shape with sharp teeth. Whiz—
Yun Shimo stared at Hua Qiyue without an expression on his face. "Why are you looking for this sort of an organization?" "I am looking for someone," Hua Qiyue replied blandly. Tianci immediately lifted up her hand. "Mother, I forgot to let you wear this!" Tianci slipped the eclipse jade bracelet on Hua Qiyue's left wrist and started to nod proudly. "Hmm, hmm, not bad, not bad. Brother Feng has great taste." Yun Shimo heard him and his face darkened at once. "Remove the bracelet. It looks so ugly." Tianci blinked. "Dad, how can you say that? It was I who made Brother Feng buy it!" Yun Shimo turned silent. He took out a sparkling pearl from his pocket. The pearl was scintillating, glittering each time in a different color. It turned from red to green, from green to purple, from purple to yellow, and finally from yellow to white. It was a Five-Colored Pearl. Tianci stared unblinkingly at i
"You stinking lass, how heartless can you get! I'm gonna to slap you dead!" Tianpi heard her and became immediately enraged. He hurled out a palm. Hua Qiyue executed Mourning Steps and avoided his brutal, severing palm. Hua Qiyue rolled her eyes. The man had meant it. Had she not avoided him quickly, she would have been hit dead by his palm. Tianpi snorted coldly and leaned against the ancient tree again. His stomach was rumbling noisily. He stretched out a hand and pulled out a Ginseng with Nine Souls from the herbal ground and started to chew. Hua Qiyue was a little embarrassed. "I didn't bring you anything because I had hurried in due to worry. It's so tiring battling those women. I just want a final showdown with them." Tianpi did not snort even a word, treating Hua Qiyue as totally transparent. Hua Qiyue walked around him and stared at him, left and right. She felt that Tianpi wasn't the same as before. He wa
The Fiery Divine Tree wrapped its branches around the white jade vial. It was greatly shocked. "Is this... an Essence Pearl? Are you... are you imparting all your powers to her?" Tianpi raised his brows. "She's my disciple. So why not? If you won't do it, I still have enough energy to destroy this forest. You must know that I'm half-demonized. Even you won't be my match." The Fiery Divine Tree went silent. Then it sighed lightly. "Ah... Very well then, I shall make this trip for you. But... I'm still shocked by your act. This must be a penance over the Peach Fairy?" "Old fellow, you're a busybody!" Tianpi raised his brows, very displeased. A wicked smile hovered over his diabolically handsome face. "Set off at once. And don't tell her it's from me. Tell her it's your gift to her. That bird and that stinking lad won't know what it is..." The Fiery Divine Tree silently departed. Once it left, Tianpi leaned against the gigantic tr
"Mom, what's wrong?" While Hua Qiyue was frantically searching for Tianci, a familiar boyish voice made her turn her head at once. She saw Hua Zun pulling Tianci and watching her curiously. When he found Hua Qiyue all drenched in blood, Hua Zun was greatly shocked. Tianci hurriedly threw himself forward. Hua Qiyue saw him and embraced Tianci fiercely in her arms. "Go at once... go quickly. In a moment, he will be here, he will be here!" Hua Qiyue cried out in terror. Night had fallen. All around in the forest were dense, overlapping shadows. It seemed that Tianpi's figure was everywhere! He seemed to be here everywhere. His presence drove Hua Qiyue to extreme panic. "Qiyue, what's wrong? What happened?" Hua Zun was frightened and stunned. It took him a long time to recover. By then, Hua Qiyue had already lifted Tianci up and raced away from Hua Zun's sight. Hua Zun followed closely behind. They left
"Qiyue is not willing to consummate our relationship, nor am I willing to hurt her. Even though I've demonized... I still retain a shred of sanity. Yun Shimo, don't you have a whiff of Qi from the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead? Force that Qi out for me now!" Tianpi cruelly curled up the corners of his lips. He was laughing smugly, his bloodshot eyes glittering with chill. "Otherwise, I will do something you won't want to see..." After he said this, he kissed Hua Qiyue's raven hair. Yun Shimo suddenly and tightly clenched his fists. Hua Qiyue was gasping slightly. She had never expected Tianpi to act this way. If Yun Shimo refused, would he kill her? "Didn't you say you are unwilling to hurt her? So release her now! You want the Qi from the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead? I'll let you have it!" Yun Shimo did not hesitate at all. Although he hated Tianpi for acting so wickedly, he was even more afraid that Hua Qiyue wo
She had said repeatedly that she would not marry Yun Shimo but Tianpi. Yet right now, she could not but be concerned over him. She was really a cheap slut! Hua Qiyue took a step back and left, heading for Ice Palace in a distraught state. She was afraid she would involuntarily go near him if she had stayed another second. Only after Hua Qiyue ran away did Yun Shimo slowly turned his body. He watched the direction from which she had left and smiled a bitter smile. He thought that she would still show him some care. But she could not overcome the hurdle in her heart. Forget it then! Let her do what she likes! Yun Shimo was already under the tree for a day and a night. His whole body had turned numb thanks to the cold. It it weren't for the anima energy inside his body, he would have frozen to death. After thinking for a day and a night, Yun Shimo came to a conclusion. Let Hua Qiyue live her life as she
On his arm was his blood-drenched robe. Hua Qiyue silently took them. "Let me wash it for you. Have a good rest." A blissful smile unfolded on Tianpi's pale face. "Haha, lass, you're so understanding. Thank you." Hua Qiyue rolled her eyes at him. They were already at their wits' end and yet he had the gall to joke with her. After washing his robe, she lay it out to dry in the sun. Then she went into the kitchen to heat up the tonic he had yet to finish and brought it to him. Tianpi had not yet fallen asleep. He was sitting cross-legged silently on his bed. When he heard the noise, Tianpi opened his eyes. He found Hua Qiyue had already brought him the soup. Pursing his lips, he gave a light smile. "Lass, you're more and more virtuous. Why don't we get married? After all, you won't accept Yun Shimo." It was a joke but it made Hua Qiyue crease her brows softly. She gave no answer, serving him the soup i
The Sun Moon Deity fumbled inside his Storage Ring and finally fished out a scroll. Hua Qiyue immediately unfurled it. It contained a rune sealing art. Since she, Yun Shimo and the Sun Moon Deity all understood runes, it would not be too difficult to execute such a sealing art. "The requirement is that you must have reached the first level of Great Deity. I've just reached that level. So it shouldn't be a problem, right?" Hua Qiyue glanced at the scroll and then threw it to Tianpi. When Tianpi saw the procedure inside, his wan face showed indifference. "It doesn't matter. Let's try it." Hua Qiyue heard him and was exceptionally happy. After Tianpi had been resealed, he could come out after the demonic energy in his body cleared. Hua Zun was rather suspicious. "Will it work? The rune sealing art 10,000 years ago was very powerful. Hare, are you sure your scroll isn't a counterfeit?" The
Was that... the demonic energy? Wasn't there only a slight whiff of it? It seemed there was a lot of demonic energy. Hua Qiyue's heart began to worry. As Tianpi gave a muffled snort, her nerves began to tense. Red hair began to sprout slowly on Tianpi's face. He seemed like a monkey. He gave another muffled snort and a white circle of light condensed desperately in his hand. Tianpi struck that white light forcefully on his head. Instantly, the crimson light on his body waned somewhat. But his striking hand had opened up a large gash on his face. Blood trickled down... Hua Qiyue could not bear to look. She turned away her head forcefully and headed out. Tianpi claimed that he was fine in the day, but he was lying. He must have wanted her not to worry. After Hua Qiyue left, Tianpi managed successfully to curb that layer of demonic energy. But he knew that every midnight, he would suffer from its attack! When the dem
Hua Qiyue was gasping. She shook herself free of Yun Shimo's hand and her eyes were full of mounting anger. "He's already so poorly. So how can I not worry? Please get lost, Yun Shimo. It's none of your business!" Yun Shimo watched the exceptionally vexed Hua Qiyue and heaved a deep breath. "I will find him back." The moment Yun Shimo said this, Hua Zun also stepped out. "I will go too." He was afraid Yun Shimo would try some wicked scheme on Tianpi. Tianci pulled Hua Qiyue's hand. "Mom, I'd like to find Grandmaster too." "Be good, Tianci. We will stay here. In a moment, dad will bring your Grandmaster back." Yun Shimo glanced at Hua Qiyue and then departed Ice Palace with Hua Zun. Watching them disappear in an instant, Hua Qiyue's heart was disconcerted. Tianpi had left because he did not wish to harm her. But she was, after all, indebted to him for her reborn life. So how could she ju
Hua Qiyue frowned and said, very displeased, "Do you guys have the habit of voyeurism?" Tianpi gave a light snort. "I merely can't stand you two. Since you won't accept another man, you might as well be with him." Hua Qiyue's emotions were suddenly stirred. "Who says I can't accept another man?" "You can? If you can, why treat Hua Zun so coldly? Why reject the others so completely?" Tianpi flatly curved up the corners of his lips. "Because I owe you too much in your former life, I won't force you now. I will respect whoever you choose. But you don't need to mind the past so much." Mind? Hua Qiyue's face sank. In Tianyuan Continent, women regarded their chastity as more important than their lives. Could Tianpi's mere words make her forgive the past? Tianpi started to wave his fan coquettishly. Hua Qiyue cursed him as a nutcase. The weather was so cold and yet he was playing with her Drunken Flower Fan!
