At this point, Ji Jing stole a glance at Ji Feng.
Ji Feng could be considered Yun Shimo's good brother. But now, would he retreat or come forward?
Ji Feng's face looked rather pale. Hua Qiyue stared at Yun Shimo, puzzled. "Your Highness, do you have a screw loose today?"
The company heard her and was flabbergasted.
Bingyi was so angry that the corner of his mouth started to twitch.
Caiqing and Caining stood on one side, staring at Hua Qiyue in disbelief. Who was Prince Nan? How dare she speak to him in this tone?
Besides, even Prince Nan had been treating Hua Qiyue tenderly. Her allure was just too irresistable!
Yun Shimo nodded and smiled. "Well, I certainly got a screw loose today. You don't need to remember what I did and say today."
Hua Qiyue heard him and was so upset that she nearly vomited blood.
Must he do this?
Yun Shimo was no fool. He
Hua Qiyue nodded and looked gratefully at Ji Feng. "Thank you, Brother Ji! I'm sorry to have taken up so much of your time." "Haha, Sister Qiyue, you don't need to be so polite. We would like to stay a few days more!" Ji Jing laughed heartily. Huangfu Changyu turned his head slightly, looking at Hua Qiyue with some admiration. "Princess Jinghua treats your adopted son like your real son. I am truly impressed!" Hua Qiyue stared at him nonchalantly, showing no love in her eyes at all. The First Prince was quite puzzled. After all, many girls had wanted to be the Princess Consort. Hua Qiyue was so indifferent. It was as if she had no interest in him at all. "Thank you for your praise, Your Highness. I shall take my leave." Saying this, Hua Qiyue left the hall for the inner room with Tianci and Yun Shimo. Yun Shimo's pace was swift as a meteor's. He seemed to be trying to shake them off.
They heard a squeaking noise from the furnace. Finally, Yun Shimo withdrew his slightly trembling hands. Even a highly-skilled master like Yun Shimo could reach the point of Spiritual Qi depletion. Hua Qiyue could clearly sense his body emptied. He needed some time to replenish his Qi. She had to admire the alchemists. It was not easy to refine pills. "Done!" Yun Shimo said in a low growl. He lifted the cauldron cover and found the broth to have evaporated. A huge purple pill sat quietly in the midst, glowing with a purplish sheen. The pill was completely spherical. Its medicinal odor was unique, carrying with it a faint lotus scent as well as the fragrance of something Hua Qiyue could not describe. "The Spring Reviving Pill. Break it up and take it for three days. Seven days later, his voice would recover." Yun Shimo said blandly. He turned, walked over to a side couch and lay on it. He did not look at the blushi
A tinge of astonishment finally appeared on Hua Qiyue's indifferent face. She did not expect Yun Shimo to have sustained internal injuries for Tianci's sake. It proved that this pill was hard to procure. If an ordinary person had coming begging, he wouldn't have refined it, would he? Did he really refine the pill because of Long Red? "You're wrong. He refined it both for Tianci and for Long Red. Don't worry. I know what to do." Although Hua Qiyue was touched, she would not easily shed tears of gratitude in front of Bingyi. Bingyi saw her nonchalant look and became enraged. "Hua Qiyue! What kind of an attitude is this? His Highness has given up ten years of his life because of you!" "What kind of an attitude was mine? Do you want me to offer myself to His Highness to repay him? Would His Highness think much of a common girl like me? I can give him anything he wants in return." Hua Qiyue held Tianci's hand and her t
Hua Qiyue raised her brows, experiencing a headache. It looked like a useless piece of trash would never be welcomed. Even though she was already a Qi Artist at the lower level of the Dragon Diagram Realm, no one had accorded her any importance. Liu Shaoming was tall and handsome, but had deep features like a Caucasian. The company asked after one another's health. The Old Madame was particularly happy. She had not expected the Four Great Families to come together. "Please sit, all you distinguished guests!" The Old Madame smiled. Hua Qiyue glanced blandly at the company, receiving Xia Tian and Liu Shaoming's looks of resentment. Two really straightforward kids. They didn't know how to disguise their feelings. Such enemies were like Huangfu Xuan. They were not dangerous at all. Hua Qiyue sneered a few times quietly in her heart. "Ho ho, Princess Jinghua has created a great sensation on the Ji family'
Let her decide all these for herself! Throughout the entire process, Second Madame and the others remained silent, as if they were mere passers-by. But even they had to stick out their tongues in shock. Hua Qiyue had suddenly become a prized commodity to the Four Great Families. Their resentment and jealousy became even stronger. "Congratulations, Elder Sis. You have received such an honored invitation. I feel happy for you." Hua Mengshi said with a faint smile. Her voice was utterly crisp, sweet with a feminine gentleness. It broke the silence of the hall. Everyone stared at Hua Mengshi. They saw a girl in a pink skirt, with delicate, pretty features--very delectable. Although she was not as beautiful as Hua Qiyue, her bearing was outstanding. As such, Baili Nan cast her additional glances. "You must be joking, Second Sis. I know that Young Master Ouyang is generous. But the Dragon Cav
Tianci's eyes were tightly shut, his face ashen, his lips colorless. Hua Qiyue was panic-stricken. The rims of her eyes turned red. She only heaved a heavy sigh of relief after seeing his face recover its color. Huangfu Xuan giggled. "A person like you can be worried?" Hua Qiyue ignored Huangfu Xuan and gazed silently at Tianci. She waited for him to calm down and re-open his eyes, clear as spring water. Only then did Hua Qiyue feel assured. "Tianci, are you alright?" Hua Qiyue asked gently. Tianci was in a daze and his gaze a little blank. He stared confusedly at Hua Qiyue, blinking his attractive eyes. Under the worried gaze of the trio, he finally parted his lips gently. "Mother... " Hua Qiyue heard him and instantly shedded tears of joy. She pressed Tianci violently into her bosom, her tears falling like a tilted jade basin with pearls, streaming down incessantly. Her tears drenched Tianci's clot
Hearing that, Tianci nodded without fully understanding it. His bowl was filled with the food that Yun Shimo served him. There were delicacies of all kinds on the table, most of which were tonic cuisines that could nourish both blood and vitality, but they were quite delicious. Tianci enjoyed his meal very much. But Hua Qiyue had a poor appetite because she had something on her mind, so, she sat beside Tianci and earnestly looked at him, after having less than half a bowl. Tianci liked Yun Shimo very much. It was probably because they had developed a very good relationship before, thus, he was still very willing to get close to Yun Shimo after losing his memory. "Mom, aren't you happy? Why did you eat less?" The gossip boy Tianci started to chatter again. "You're too young. Don't ask too much." "But Daddy said that it would be best not to feel ashamed to ask questions." Tianci smiled. Hua Qiyue's mou
"Watch out, Childe!" The attentant shouted, but it was too late. Sundenly, Liu Shaoming felt an itchiness on the nerves all over his body. A kind of mad magic made him open his mouth, and he laughed without a pause. Seeing Liu Shaoming's situation, his attendant was freaked out and operated Qing Gong on Liu Shaoming immediately, then they suddenly disappeared in front of the Jing Yue Pavilion... But many people witnessed this, and they all mocked Liu Shaoming for his arrogancy. But it wasn't a fatal injury, it would be something to see whether Liu Shaoming would blame this on Hua Qiyue. If he went to blame her, then people would say that it was a trick played by a child, and it would be unmanly for him to argue with a child. If he didn't get even, this First Childe of the Liu's would have to let it go, which upset him a lot. Tianci was young, but last night, Hua Qiyue taught him a trick of Qi Art for
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!
