Mu Hongyu waited for a while and then realized that Jian Fengchi didn’t move at all, so she looked up at him strangely. “What’s the matter?”

The almond-like eyes of the woman in front of him shone brightly, and she looked very cute. She was so near that he could see her long lashes as she stood in front of him.

Jian Fengchi met her gaze, and his heart started beating even more quickly.

He averted his gaze sheepishly. “Holding you… doesn’t seem to be very appropriate…”

If someone else heard this, they would laugh their heads off! The usually flippant Jian Fengchi actually told a woman that it was ‘inappropriate.’ What a joke!

But even though Mu Hongyu only heard some rumors about Jian Fengchi, she wasn’t a local of Xi Ling. During the few months in Xi Ling, she spent most of her time in Dragon Teeth Mountain.

What kind of place was Dragon Teeth Mountain? Jian Fengchi’s home!

Who would dare to say something bad about the young master? Hence, she wasn’t very clear about this side of Jian Fengchi.

Mu Hongyu blinked. “What’s not appropriate? You even saved me before! Shouldn’t I think of a way to bring you out?”

We’re all friends. Of course, we must help each other! To help us, Liuyue even risked her life. What does this count for??Thinking of this, she took a step forward.

The distance between the duo instantly shrunk.

The warmth and fragrance on her body wafted toward his nose and instantly overwhelmed him. Jian Fengchi opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say as his entire body stiffened.

As she grabbed his hand and placed it on her waist, Mu Hongyu didn’t realize that he was behaving weirdly.

The young woman’s thin and soft waist seemed to burn. The moment he touched it, his palm boiled.

Waves of heat attacked Jian Fengchi as his intricate face suddenly flushed red! Even his ears seemed to burn!

His face turned red, and he almost instinctively held her waist tightly. However, he didn’t dare to lean in too close because he was afraid he would burn himself.

“Hold me tight!” hollered Mu Hongyu as she shut her eyes.

The next moment, the force of the space in their surroundings suddenly surged toward the outside!

Jian Fengchi could clearly feel that the forces previously suppressing them were quickly moving away! Then, his vision turned black, and they quickly disappeared from the spot.

…

Rumble!

The Long Yuan Sword harshly slashed down and struck the black barrier!

The two forces’ waves crazily slammed against each other, producing a terrifying and crazy energy wave!

That invisible force in the surroundings started moving crazily, like sharp flying daggers cutting everywhere!

Whoosh!

One of them went directly for Chu Liuyue’s neck!

A bright light exuded from Chu Liuyue’s body at this moment, and the pure gold armor appeared once again!

Ding!

Ding ding ding!?

The crisp impact sounds came from all over her body! Luckily, these attacks weren’t worth a mention against the pure gold armor.

It was a pity that the black barrier didn’t look like it was going to crack open when the Long Yuan Sword landed, even though it was affected.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

At this time, Shangguan Jing’s voice sounded. “This barrier is protected by a holy power. It’s quite difficult if you want to open it with your current abilities. Let me help you!”

It was a crushing sense of pressure!

Countless bolts of silver lightning swam crazily across the Long Yuan Sword and gathered at the sword tip.

“Break!” Shangguan Jing hollered!

The silver lightning’s strength suddenly exploded!

Bam!

The terrifying force spread in all directions, and Chu Liuyue’s sword-holding hand started shaking intensely!

An opening suddenly formed, and fresh blood flowed everywhere!

The moment her arm was completely numb, the darkness in front of her finally broke!

Ka!?

Bright light shone in!

The strong pressurizing force came from behind and suddenly pushed Chu Liuyue forward!

Chu Liuyue felt that the scene in front of her was bright! Then, she fell forward!

…

Tens of thousands of kilometers away.

Rong Xiu was busy handling the few divisions’ incidents and didn’t even close his eyes for a few days and nights. He finally had some free time today to lie down and rest. But not long later, he knitted his brows in his sleep.

Then, he suddenly widened his eyes. He sat up and held the head of the bed with one hand as his other hand gently rubbed his brows.

His white inner top was loose, revealing a collarbone and a small part of his chest.

The moonlight was bright as it shone in on him. It instinctively caused the muscles revealed to look like white jade.

The moonlight was like water, which increasingly complemented the elegance of his appearance—it was like a flower on a snowy mountain peak. It was high and unattainable as he was cold and composed.

After being silent for a while, he removed his blanket and grabbed the clothes at the side before putting them on.

As if hearing the noise within the hall, Yan Qing—who was guarding outside—asked, “Your Highness? Are you awake?”

“Come in.”

Hearing this, Yan Qing hurriedly pushed open the door to enter.

The moment he stepped in, Yan Qing saw that his master was not only awake but had also already changed his clothes!

In addition, his face seemed… amiss.

Yan Qing was shocked as he hurried forward and carefully asked, “Your Highness, what’s… wrong?”

Rong Xiu’s gaze was calm without a ripple, but it was terrifyingly deep. “Bring the Record of the Million Gods over.”

Shock flashed across Yan Qing’s eyes, but he still immediately said, “Yes! I’ll go right away! But… There are a total of ten ‘Record of the Million Gods’ scrolls. Which one do you want to see?”

Rong Xiu thought for a while and lightly said, “The tenth one.”

Yan Qing was dazed for a moment and asked, “You’re talking about.. the one from Xin Dynasty Year 3000?”

Didn’t His Highness already see that scroll before??

Rong Xiu lightly nodded and then said, “The ninth scroll as well.”

If I didn’t guess wrongly, the name of that person from Beiming seemed to be recorded in the ninth scroll.?
