r to kill a pair!"You! You have no shame!" Madam Liu was so angry that she almost choked to death.“Shame” Xiao Yuge snorted coldly: “I’m not ashamed. It’s because the Prince is being so persistent. Oh...“Little Song, don't do this to me. I know I was wrong just now, I’m sorry…” Qian Tingxuan pressed his face against her back: “Little Song, it was wrong of me to conceal my identity. You can hit me, scold me, or even do anything to me, but please don’t disappear without a word. I'm really scared… I almost lost you twice, and that feeling of suffocating pain, I don't want to go through it again.”

"...." Xiao Yu Ge opened her mouth, but still stubbornly didn't speak.

"Do you know When I pulled you out from under the city wall, I was thinking, if I had been a little later, seeing you fall before me like that… I think I would have gone mad! I can't even imagine living without you, even with less than two years left. I don't know how I could go on. Those days you were unconscious, I kept thinking, if I couldn't even protect you, what meaning does it hold for me to protect all living beings in the world"

"......" Xiao Yu Ge remained silent, but she had opened her eyes. Her pupils trembled slightly.

“Little Song, before you, all I thought about was family and country, duty-bound to safeguard the peace of the Three Kingdoms. But after meeting you, I realized that my so-called grand love wasn't real. In the face of you and these ideals, my choice has always been you.”The world may call him stubborn or selfish. He only wants her.

Xiao Yu Ge still remained silent, only turning around and quietly nestled into his arms. He might be cruel and fearsome, but he had never harmed her. Just like always, he protected her, being the one who loved her most in this world. What was she being so melodramatic about Whether he was the master of Lei Ting Pavilion or the owner of the Golden Feather Order, he was still him, Qian Ting Xuan who loved her dearly. That was enough.

"Little song..." Qian Tingxuan saw that she finally forgave him, happily held her tightly.

"Okay, from now on, if there's anything you need to tell me, even if you're going out to do something, you have to tell me. You can't lie to me anymore."

"Good!" Qian Tingxuan lowered his head and kissed her forehead: "If I lie to you again, I'll be punished for not touching you for the rest of my life!" Wasn't that cruel enough Not touching her for a lifetime, he couldn't even think about it, he absolutely couldn't do it.

"Not very proper," Xiao Yuge laughed and scolded while pinching him.

"Little songbird, the long night stretches on. How about we do it again, hmm" He started to be mischievous.

"No!" she blurted out, refusing without a second thought. Another round and her back would ache tomorrow.

"Tonight, we do this again..." Qian Tingxuan's fiery tongue had already invaded her territory.

"Qian Tingxuan, you don't keep your word, you....." The rest of her words were swallowed back into her throat...

Somewhere.

Inside a cave crafted from glacial ice, many things were arranged. At first glance, it resembled an array, yet it was more like an altar. Currently, a person sat in meditation on the bench—the national master who had been absent for many days!

As soon as he finished his exertion, he reached out and gently pressed beside him. The originally flat stones beneath slowly opened, revealing a blood pool about ten feet in size. A young and beautiful woman was floating on top of the blood pool!

That woman was the same as the one in the portrait at the painter's mansion of a foreign country. At this moment, she had no breath and seemed to have been dead for a long time. Although she was lifeless, her face was lifelike, and her skin looked glossy and elastic. Except for the lack of breathing, she looked just like any other normal person.

"My dear..." The Grandmaster covered his chest and slowly walked towards the pool of blood. His eyes, gazing at the woman, were filled with deep affection, as if looking at his beloved. His voice was tender and sweet.

"Master!" Just then, Ah Yi rushed in holding a swaddled baby.

The Grand Master raised his gaze at the sound, his eyes falling on the swaddled babe in his hands. His expression instantly lit up with excitement: "Have you found the last remaining Yang child"

"Yes, Master!" Ah Yi nodded and handed the child in her hands to the National Teacher.

The national master reached out and took the child, then bit his finger and dripped blood onto the child's forehead. A strange light suddenly emanated, and he couldn't help but smile: "Sure enough, a Yang Tong!"

Perhaps startled or hungry, the infant in swaddling clothes suddenly kicked his legs and burst into tears, his childish voice piercingly loud in the entire cave.

"Quickly take him inside, don't let him disturb your mistress!" The national master frowned impatiently, handing the child back to A-yi.

"Good, Master!" Ah Yi quickly carried the child into a cave nearby, where there were several children of different sizes.

The Grand Master walked to the blood pool, his trembling hand gently touching the face of the woman within. The icy touch did not diminish the joy in his eyes: “Xiu’er, can you hear me Everything is ready. Soon, you will be able to live again. Soon, we will be together.”

He caressed her again and again, as if caressing a rare treasure: "A'er, we are finally meeting again. You are still so beautiful, but I am getting old..." He lowered his head to look at his hair.

The national master sat back in his chair, trembling hands pressed the switch, the blood pool slowly closed: "A'er, I have sent those who forced you to death to hell, and I have also found a way to bring you back to life, A'er, just endure for a few more days down there, soon, we will be able to see each other again."

"Master!" Just then, Ah Yi rushed out with a child in his arms, his face full of panic.

"What's wrong" The national teacher glanced at the child in his hands, his eyes turning sinister.

"The little girl has no breath..." Ai said timidly.

“What did you say!” The national teacher’s eyes turned cold, he flashed to Ai Yi’s face, reaching out his hand to gently probe under the child’s nose. Sure enough, there was no breath. He stared blankly at the already ice-cold child, unable to recover for a long time. He couldn't believe it, all the planning he had done for so long would be put on hold because of a child.

"Master, this child was born prematurely, and it's too cold here, so..."

"Get out! Go find it right now! Go find it!" The National Master was furious, slapping Ah Yi and the child in her arms, sending them flying.

And almost at the same time, a man in a big black robe caught A-yi.

"Little..." A-yi just wanted to speak, but was stopped by the man in black.

The man in black glanced at the child in Ah Yi's hands, as if he understood something. He then motioned for Ah Yi to step back first, while he walked towards the national teacher: "I know there is another Yin female!" His voice was hoarse and rough, a telltale sign of transformation.

"What did you say" the Grand Tutor turned around abruptly.

"I will bring her as soon as possible!"

"What are you waiting for, go now!" The national teacher's robe sleeve waved.

"Yes!" The robed man respectfully nodded in response, then turned and silently left.n’t save them one by one. If Lu Kai surrendered voluntarily, then everyone in the palace could be safe.Miss Xiao, I hear that you are the most beautiful woman in this entire imperial city. Just so hap...
