Ghost Hand, Heavenly Doctor 09 Midnight Thief of Fragrance, Mysterious Person! Tian Tian Book Bar

  Tang Xin, who was helping Tang Zihao bandage his wound, happened to look up and saw Su Ruo's body blocking the sword. The long sword pierced her body, and the outer cloak that was originally draped over her had fallen off at some point, revealing the bright red blood staining her white dress.

  Su Zhen Nan's astonishment and shock, Emperor Mo's astonishment and pity, as well as Liu Shao Bai's complexity and inquiry, all entered her eyes. She just faintly hooked up the corner of her lips, smiling lightly at that scene.

  Is she dead? If she could die, wouldn't that be the end of it? This ruthless move to use a desperate tactic is nothing more than an attempt to gain Emperor Mo's sympathy. And indeed, her goal has been achieved, as seen in how Emperor Mo held her while fighting bravely, his anxiety and concern clearly visible.

  Fierce sword energy, emitting the aura of martial power, permeated the air, humming with resonance. Those dozen or so assassins were deadly in every move, their steps closing in relentlessly, making it impossible to attack or retreat. She watched quietly, pondering why that person hiding in the shadows wanted to send them to their deaths. Such an extraordinary ability to conceal one's aura was not something a ordinary expert could achieve. If even that hidden person joined the fray, Emperor Shang and his companions would be doomed without a doubt.

  One hand holding the faint Su Ruo Shui, Di Shang Mo's movements became slower and slower as he fought. Several times, in order to avoid hurting Su Ruo Shui, his body, which already had several wounds, added a few more sword injuries. His blue brocade robe was covered with bloodstains, some of the wounds were deep enough to see bone, shocking to behold.

  "Hiss!"

  The hand holding the sword was cut by the sharp sword, and then it was shaken by the opponent's sword energy, making his wrist numb. His hand shook, and the sword in his hand also fell off. Without a weapon in his hand, he was shocked, wanting to pick up the sword, but the attack full of killing intent from the opposite side came again, forcing him to retreat step by step.

  Several cold swords emitting a murderous aura flew towards him from different directions, Emperor Mochi's heart tightened, but at this moment he was completely unable to dodge, his wrist was numbed, the sword fell to the ground again, and his physical strength was gradually failing. At this time, he had no power to defend himself, in an instant, his heart was filled with a strong sense of unwillingness and anger in the face of imminent death.

  I thought my strength was already top-notch, but even with great strength, I can handle one person of similar strength, but against multiple people, it's surprisingly not a match!

  "Alas!"

  Two cries of surprise came from Su Zhen Nan and Liu Shao Bai, they did not expect to see him in a life-threatening situation when they turned around, their hearts were greatly shocked, wanting to go forward to help, but unfortunately they were surrounded by several assassins and couldn't extricate themselves. Seeing the few sharp sword blades emitting killing intent about to strike him and Su Ruo Shui, the two people's hearts almost reached their throats.

  In the dark, sharp eyes stared at the dying Emperor Mo, a flash of darkness passed through his eyes, but the figure that appeared next moment, however, suddenly overturned his plan, and a deep thought and complexity flashed through his profound and sharp gaze.

  "Tang, Táng Xīn..."

  Liu Shaobai and Su Zhen'nan stared in shock at the green figure that flashed before them like a ghost, its elusive and strange movements making it hard to believe that it was actually coming from someone without martial arts skills. The dark projectiles shooting out of her hands made their eyes light up even more.

  Fine silver needles streaked through the air, silently piercing the wrists of the assassins holding swords. The next moment, they suddenly gasped in unison, their hands trembling, and were so pained that they couldn't even grip the swords in their hands. As they turned back in shock, one of them had his sword snatched away in an instant. Without any martial force but with a murderous aura, the sword tip swept across their heels, instantly making them cry out in agony, their bodies involuntarily half-kneeling down.

  With a spin, her green robe fluttered, and the black hair that fell behind her like silk drew a beautiful arc in the air. She held a cold sword, pointing it at the ground, with a slight smile on her lips, and an absolutely beautiful face with a shallow smile. However, those mysterious clear eyes now floated with a cold killing intent.

  Di Yan was shocked, he was actually saved by Tang Xin? Looking at the blue-clothed Tang Xin standing in front of him with a sword, suddenly, his heart flashed with an inexplicable feeling. He had thought that she only had moves but no killing power, but the previous scene's ethereal and mysterious movements, that beautiful dark weapon, and that decisive and cold aura actually made his heart skip a beat.

  It seems that she in front of him is a stranger, it seems that she in front of him is someone he doesn't know...

  She, she actually defeated those few assassins with just one move?

  Liu's inner shock was not something that could be put into words. The strange movements and swift actions she had just displayed left him stunned. In the Lion Building, he had seen her as elegant and noble, in the Floating Cloud Mountain, she was warm and gentle, but on the competition stage of the Imperial City, she was again proud and confident. He thought he had understood her, but who would have known that today he saw another side of her - decisive and sharp, with a hint of killing intent in her clear eyes, and a shallow smile on her beautiful face, mysterious and noble. This version of her was really too difficult to grasp, as if there were always secrets about her that outsiders could not know...

  Su Zhen's eyes narrowed as she gazed at Tang Xin, who stood with sword in hand. Her heart sank further, for no other reason than that Tang Xin had such exceptional martial arts skills despite lacking any actual martial power. It wasn't a good sign, but Su Zhen couldn't help feeling relieved that Tang Xin's reflexes were so quick, allowing her to save Shang Di and Ruo Shui in the nick of time. If not for that, the consequences would have been unthinkable.

  Duan's eyes widened and he swallowed hard, how, how could Tang Xin's skills be so fierce? It seemed even more ferocious than his own.

  "Sister, I'm here to help you!" Tang Zihao flew out, and the momentum of Wu Zong's high hand made Duan Wuzhi swallow his saliva. He cursed secretly, this perverted fat man, how could he even advance faster than him?

  With Tang Zihao joining, Xia Xue and Xia Yu also joined the battle. Duan Wushang saw this and had no choice but to help out despite not wanting to. Meanwhile, Emperor Mo returned to his senses and put Su Ruoshui under a nearby tree before quickly joining the battle as well. Only by killing these people could they truly be rid of danger!

  At this time, Fengfeng, who had been thrown aside and was shining with his body, blinked his eyes, found a place to sit down, but he didn't wear clothes and sat on the ground, being poked by the sand and stones, making his butt hurt. He stood up, frowning and pouting, looking at Su Ruo Water who was leaning against the tree and had passed out. His eyes rolled around, and then he ran over to her, not caring whether she was dead or alive, and sat directly on her two white legs. With both hands supporting his small face, he excitedly watched them fight.

  "Go, Mom!"

  "Mom is the most awesome!"

  "Be careful, Mom!"

  The crisp and tender voice, with a child's softness, was very pleasant to hear. However, the words he shouted out made Liu Shaobai's hand tremble, almost dropping his sword. Looking at the little devil in surprise, he saw him sitting on Su Ruo's white thighs, his two small hands supporting his adorable face in an excited shout, and couldn't help but glance strangely at Tang Xin.

  Her child? When was it born?

  "Little devil! Get up for me!" Su Zhen Nan shouted in anger, seeing him sitting on Su Ruo Shui's leg after she had fainted from her injuries. While dealing with the assassins, he tried to move forward and pull him away, but couldn't spare a hand.

  He blinked his innocent eyes and tilted his little head in confusion, asking: "Why get up? Fengfeng is comfortable sitting like this!"

  "Hey!" Su Zhen Nan was furious and shouted: "She's injured! She's already fainted from her injuries, and you're still sitting on top of her, hurry up and get off!"

  Phoenix didn't sit on her body, Phoenix just sat on her legs!

  Listening to his infuriating words, Su Zhen Nan felt his anger rising, although he knew he shouldn't be arguing with a child, but that kid was really hateful!

  However, at this moment, a figure suddenly flew out of the forest, and the appearance of that person brought a strong and powerful aura, the release of martial arts reached its peak, which made everyone present feel like they were being pressed by something, unable to breathe, and those assassins also took advantage of the opportunity to aim, and they all slipped away into the forest, escaping without a trace.

  "Are you all right?" The low and thick voice with the pressure of a superior slowly came out, and Mu Tianyu, who was holding a sharp sword, saw that those killers had escaped, and his eyes flashed: "Actually let them escape!"

  As soon as she saw him, a hint of dim light flashed across Tang Xinyi's clear and calm eyes, and she quietly lowered her eyelids. Mo Tianyu, he appeared at just the right time.

  "Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving our lives. We are eternally grateful." The emperor bowed his head slightly, his tone filled with gratitude.

  "It doesn't matter, who are those people? How did you get involved with them?" Mu Tianyou asked in a low voice, his eyes moving away from Di Shang's face and glancing at Tang Xin, who was frowning beside him.

  "At first, I thought they were just treasure hunters from the Floating Cloud Mountain, but when we clashed with them, we realized they weren't ordinary people, but trained assassins." Emperor Miao said, and only then remembered Su Ruo Shui who had helped him block a sword, hastily turning around: "Miss Su was severely injured while saving me, we can't linger here any longer, we must leave the forest immediately!"

  When he turned around, he saw that Su Zhen Nan had appeared beside Su Ruo Shui at some point, and was holding the child sitting on Su Ruo Shui's thigh with one hand. His face was full of anger: "Where did this wild kid come from? Get out!" As soon as his voice fell, he ruthlessly threw Feng Feng towards a big tree in the distance. The force was so great that if she had hit the tree, she would have been seriously injured or killed. The faces of the surrounding crowd changed color at the sight.

  Phoenix!

  Tang Xin's body flashed, quickly catching him, and his eyes, filled with anger, coldly swept towards Su Zhen Nan, sarcastically saying: "Su young master is really good at martial arts, why didn't you see earlier when dealing with those assassins that you were so brave? Now, to actually use such a heavy hand on a child, it's truly eye-opening!"

  "Mommy, Fengfeng is scared." A little kid took the opportunity to rush into her arms and pucker up for comfort.

  "Don't be afraid, he'll only bully kids who are defenseless." Tang Xin glanced at Su Zhen Nan with disdain and gently comforted Feng Feng.

  Su Zhen's face turned iron-green, and he gave Tang Xin a cold, harsh glance. He flicked his sleeve, let out a cold snort, bent down to pick up the fainting Su Ruo Shui, and said: "I'm too lazy to bother with you!" As he spoke, he looked at Di Shuang Mo and asked: "Shuang Mo, are you going to leave the forest with me or stay here with this woman?"

  "This..."

  Di Yan's eyes widened slightly, and he furrowed his brow. Logically speaking, Su Ruo Shui was injured because of him, so he should send her to the city for treatment. However, from another perspective, he couldn't just abandon Tang Xin like that. For a moment, he was torn between two options, and finally opened his mouth: "Tang Xin, why don't we leave the forest together?"

  Before Tang Xin could speak, Tang Zihao said: "Emperor Xiao, didn't you see that they don't even look at us with good eyes? And let my sister go and provoke people's dislike?" His voice paused, and he glanced at Su Ruo Shui in Su Zhen's arms, coldly snorting: "Besides, what relationship do you have with that woman? Even if she gets hurt for your sake, it won't kill her, why be so nervous?"

  Upon hearing this, his eyebrows furrowed even more as he looked at Tang Xin, but she simply turned her head away indifferently: "You go! Since she was hurt for your sake, you can't just not go."

  "Tang Xin, wait for me to send her for treatment and I'll come back to find you right away." Di Shuang Mo said, looking deeply at her before bowing his head to the side: "Your Majesty, I'm truly sorry, but I have to see them out of the forest first, so I bid farewell here."

  Mu Tianyu glanced at Tang Xin and nodded slightly: "Hmm, don't worry! I'll take care of things here."

  "In that case, thank you."

  "Let me stay behind! You all go ahead." Liu Shaobai said, not intending to leave the forest with them.

  "Alright then, see you later." He nodded and glanced at Tang Xin before turning around and leaving.

  Watching him follow Su Zhen Nan leave, Tang Xin's eyes flickered slightly, and she slowly lowered her eyelids: "Let's go!"

  "Tang Xin." Mu Tianyou called out to her, his sharp eyes gleaming with an unclear light as he looked at her. She stopped in her tracks and turned back, only then did he speak: "Since they've left, I'll accompany you all instead! There are many experts in this forest, and it's also to prevent any more accidents from happening."

  "Great, great! This way we'll be much safer." Duan Wuji nodded excitedly, and as soon as the words left his mouth, he smiled awkwardly and said: "Your Majesty, actually what I meant was, with you here, we can feel more at ease."

  Tang Xin raised her eyes and glanced at him, smiling lightly: "In that case, thank you, Sheng."

  "Hehe, outside, there's no need for so many formalities, you can treat me as your friend." He said with deep meaning, his eyes fixed on Tang Xin from start to finish without moving away, he believed she understood what he meant.

  Tang Xin smiled lightly and said slowly, "Your Majesty's noble body, how can we be so presumptuous as to climb high? It is already a great honor for Your Majesty to walk with us. If we were to address each other as friends, wouldn't that be disrespect towards Your Majesty?"

  Upon hearing this, Mu Tianyu's face sank slightly, clearly not looking good. Liu Shaobai, who was standing beside them, looked at the undercurrent between the two and wondered secretly: Could it be that Mu Tianyu has taken a liking to Tang Xin?

  As soon as this idea emerged, even he himself was shocked. Although it is said that those with high cultivation can live longer and maintain their youthful appearance at its peak, Tang Xin's age is still a few years younger than Mu Chenfeng's. If Mu Tianyu had taken a liking to a woman who was even younger than his own son, wouldn't that be...

  Tang Zihao, who was standing beside him, didn't say a word. The sudden appearance of Mu Tianyu here was too coincidental, which made him think of what Tang Xin had said earlier - that there were people hiding in the shadows. Moreover, as soon as he appeared, those assassins all escaped, making it highly likely that today's assassins were arranged by him.

  Lowering his head and covering his eyes with deep thought, he vaguely understood the reason why Mu Tianyou did this.

  "Your Majesty, did you also come because of that strange phenomenon?" Liu Shaobai broke the somewhat gloomy atmosphere and looked at Mu Tianyu on one side.

  "Hmm, I heard that there's something unusual coming down, so I came to take a look. However, all I saw was a big pit in the depths of the forest, but no sign of treasure. The people in the forest said they seemed to have seen cultivators arriving at this forest. I'm thinking, could it be that the treasure has already been taken away by the cultivators?"

  The child who heard their words blinked slightly, continued to lie in Tanghai's arms without moving, like a well-behaved baby, quietly staying still.

  "Your Majesty, we were actually planning to leave the forest." Tang Xin spoke up and glanced at the sky, saying: "We haven't found anything in this forest, and it's already been two days since we came out. We've decided to head back."

  "Well, in that case, let's head back together then!" Mu Tianyu also spoke up.

  Several people nodded and they all walked towards the exit of the forest.

  On the other hand, the cultivators searching for treasures in the forest became increasingly impatient as they couldn't find anything unusual after a long time. Some of them even suspected that someone among them might have already obtained it.

  "In my opinion, there's no need to look anymore, it's probably been taken away by someone." A cultivator stood on a flying sword, giving the others an ugly glance.

  "Fellow Taoists, we've been searching this forest for so long and apart from that big pit, we haven't seen any sign of the treasure. It's possible that it has already been taken away by someone." Another cultivator also spoke up.

  "So that's it? If a cultivator got it, it would be one thing, but if an ordinary person got it, they might just waste the strange object."

  "Heh heh, fellow Taoist friends, we've always emphasized the importance of fate. Since we have no affinity with that treasure, why force it? I've already decided to leave the forest. Rather than wasting time here, I'd rather return and focus on my cultivation. Who knows, maybe one day I'll make a breakthrough." The speaker was the cultivator who had saved Tang Xin. After finishing his words, he nodded at the others and flew away on his sword.

  Seeing him leave, the others also lost their minds to continue staying, and after exchanging a glance, they also rode their swords away. Until they left, several other cultivators arrived at their previous location. The few people looked at each other, and one of them said: "It seems that those few fellow Taoists have given up, how about you?"

  "It's not easy to come to the Dragon and Phoenix Continent, since I didn't find that strange object, I plan to stay here for a few more days, see if there are any outstanding talents, and take them as apprentices back with me. How could I return empty-handed?" The beautiful woman said, glancing at the few of them: "Fellow Taoists, please excuse me." As soon as her voice fell, she also followed the sword and left the forest.

  "Will this Dragon Continent have any extraordinary spiritual roots?" One of them muttered, seemingly, even he himself didn't hold much hope for this expectation.

  "Is there anything to look for? Since we've all come, why not take a look?" Another monk glanced at several people, his sleeves fluttered, and he also rode his sword away.

  Watching their silhouettes disappear into the sky, the few people below exchanged a glance without speaking, and also followed one after another to leave.

  In the dark, that ruthless cultivator slowly emerged from the forest, staring in the direction they had left, and after a while, he also set off on his sword. Since he couldn't find that treasure, next, he would have to think of a way to take Tang Xin's life! If he was provoked, then at that time, even the Xiang Fu where she was located would be eliminated together!

  The sun sets in the west, Emperor Xun and Su Zhen Nan bring Su Ruo Shui, who is dizzy and confused, to the city. After finding a doctor to examine her, she falls into a coma due to severe injuries and cannot leave like this. Originally, Emperor Xun was planning to return to Tang Xin's place, but he was unexpectedly held back by this matter.

  At night, quietly and silently arrived, because of worrying that Su Ruoshui's injury would worsen at midnight, Emperor Mo, who was lightly injured, stayed to keep watch, while Su Zhen Nan, who was more seriously injured, rested in the adjacent room.

  In the room, Emperor Di was sitting quietly, but his mind was thinking deeply. This morning, Tang Xin's strange movements in the forest, and that fierce and decisive aura, as well as that child who called her "mother", where did he come from? It seemed that there were always unsolvable puzzles entwining in his heart, making him feel anxious and confused.

  It was midnight when Su Ruo Water on the bed seemed to wake up due to the scorching heat of her injuries, lying in bed and constantly calling out: "Hot...... so hot......"

  "Miss Su, how are you?" Emperor Xun suddenly heard the faint voice and hastily got up from his reclining position to come to her bedside.

  "It's hot...... so hot......"

  "Wait, I'll get you a glass of water." He quickly walked to the table, poured a glass of water, and helped her sit up, holding the glass for her to drink. As he saw her slowly drinking the water in the cup, his anxiety gradually subsided.

  If it were because of him that there was a life and death struggle, he would be too ashamed to face the master of the Su family, let alone her.

  "Imperial prince..." Su Ruo Shui slightly opened her eyes, and after drinking water, she became much clearer. The heat in her body also slowly subsided. Looking at the person supporting her, a weak smile was forced onto her pale face: "So you're here with me, I...I'm really happy."

  "Miss Su, you're still weak, don't talk too much, just rest well!" He laid her down flat and was about to stand up when his sleeve was caught by her: "Don't go."

  Looking at her pleading eyes, Emperor Mo sighed inwardly and sat back down beside the bed: "I'm not leaving, I'll just be here, you sleep!"

  "Hmm." A faint smile spread across her pale face as she gazed at Su Ruo Water, who was lying weakly on the bed. Di Shang Mo couldn't help but think of Tang Xin, who in front of him had always been carefree and natural, seemingly gentle and soft, occasionally playful, yet somehow never revealing a vulnerable side, instead remaining calm and collected, not at all like a woman deeply in love.

  Tang Xin, will she be angry because he didn't stay? Will she miss him as much as he misses her when he's not by her side?

  "Shang Mo, may I call you that?" On the bed, Su Ruo Water, who had woken up, seemed to have lost her sleepiness. Although her face was still pale, her spirit seemed much better.

  Upon hearing her words, Di Shang Mo was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Alright."

  "Then can you call me Ruoshui?"

  Di Yan's eyes flashed as he looked at her, pausing for a moment before saying: "I know your feelings, but I already have Tang Xin. To you, I can only be friends."

  Upon hearing this, the beautiful eyes that had been expectantly looking at him suddenly dimmed, and her eyelashes fluttered a few times before slowly closing. Her voice seemed to be trembling with sobs: "I know I can't compare to Tang Xin's place in your heart, and I know you like Tang Xin, but... but I just can't control my love for you."

  Di Shang Mo didn't say a word, but let out a soft sigh and stood up, walking to the edge of the table: "Ruo Shui, go to sleep! I'll be here keeping watch." As he spoke, he no longer looked at her.

  In his heart, there has always been only one person, Tang Xin. His love for her is wholehearted and sincere, from the moment he met her, he knew that no one could compare to her. It was precisely because of this that his father's repeated attempts to stop him couldn't block his desire to be with her.

  As she watched him turn his back, Su Ruo's eyes flashed with a hint of jealousy and resentment. It was all because of Tang Xin! She had already put aside her pride to beg for a chance at love, but he still didn't see her existence. If it wasn't for today when she blocked that sword for him, they wouldn't have even been able to take another step closer!

  Tang Xin! Tang Xin! Her appearance took away everything that belonged to her, she will absolutely not let her go!

  But Emperor Di didn't know that Tang Xin and others also arrived in this city to settle down, only they were sitting in different inns.

  Xia Yu took Fengfeng out to buy a few sets of small clothes for him to wear. Looking at the little guy who was wearing the clothes and staring blankly, she couldn't help but pinch his soft and chubby cheeks: "Oh my, Fengfeng, how can you be so adorable?! Come on, call me Sister Yu, and I'll buy you some candy."

  "Rainy sister." The little guy called out in a clever and sweet voice, with a crispy and tender tone that made Xia Yu's eyes shine: "Well behaved! Rainy sister will give you a kiss, tonight, you can sleep together with Rainy sister, okay?"

  He heard that, and hurriedly ran to Tang Xin's side and hugged her leg: "Feng Feng wants to sleep with mother." He said, stretching out his chubby little hand, blinking his pure and innocent eyes at her: "Yu sister, Feng Feng's candy?"

  "Here, you can't be missing." Xia Yu lightly scratched his nose and then looked at Tang Xin: "Miss, are we taking Fengfeng back?" Although she also liked this little guy, but would his family be anxious because they couldn't find him?

  Mu Tianyu, who was sitting on the side drinking tea, put down his cup and looked at the little kid who had just put on clothes and looked lovely. He glanced at Tang Xin and smiled: "This kid is quite interesting, but how did he appear in Fuyun Mountain?" His seemingly casual gaze swept over Fengfeng, who was hiding behind Tang Xin, as if exploring something.

  "Fengfeng was thrown away, don't want her, Mother, you don't throw Fengfeng away, okay?" A little kid immediately looked up at her with tears in his eyes, a pitiful look of being unwanted, which made Xia Yu's heart break.

  "Miss, since Fengfeng has been abandoned, why don't we just take him back with us!"

  Liu Shaobai glanced at the white and chubby Fengfeng, fanning himself with his fan while laughing: "This child is so adorable, being white and chubby, yet he has parents who abandoned him, it's really unexpected. However, Tang Xin, if you take him in, then you'll have an extra son for free. If he doesn't have a father, I don't mind contributing to his upbringing."

  "Liu Xiaobai, what nonsense are you talking about!" Tang Zihao glared at him and said irritably: "With your naive appearance, you still want to be a cheap dad? Apart from holding a fan all day and pretending to be elegant, what else can you do?"

  "It's Liu Shaobai! You fatso, how many times do I have to tell you!" He gritted his teeth and said, still so naive? He's still so ignorant! This fatty only knows how to cause trouble.

  Tang Zihao crossed his arms and gave him a sideways glance, as if deliberately going against him: "I know, Liu Xiaobai? No need to remind me like this, I've known you were Liu Xiaobai since the first day I met you."

  Duan Wuji sat on one side with a silly smile, finally, this Tang Baozi no longer bullied him alone, hehehe...

  "Alright, the Emperor is still watching! Don't be so rude." Tang Xin said, but in fact, although he said that, the people present probably didn't put Mu Tianyou, this former emperor, in their eyes. After all, on the Dragon Ascending Continent, apart from the imperial system, the status of powerful forces in the Jianghu was also unique.

  "It doesn't matter." Mu Tianyou waved his hand, looking completely unconcerned.

  "Your Majesty, it's getting late and everyone is tired. Why don't we all just go back and rest?" She smiled slightly, looking at the crowd.

  "Alright, you get some rest too." Mu Tianyou stood up, gave her a deep look, and then turned to leave.

  And this glance happened to be seen by Liu Shaobai, who couldn't help but think deeply and frown slightly. The way Mu Tianyu looked at Tang Xin was indeed the way a man looks at a woman, and it also carried an air of determination...

  "Tang Xin, I'm going to rest too. You should get some rest early too, we still have to head back tomorrow!" Duan Wu Zhi also stood up, smiled with a slight smirk and headed out as well.

  After the two left, Liu Shaobai slowly fanned himself with a fan and raised his second leg: "Tang Xin, what is Mu Tianyu's intention towards you? You shouldn't be unaware of it, should you?"

  Upon hearing this, Tang Xin smiled shallowly: "What's the use of knowing?" With Liu Shaobai's astuteness and Mu Tianyu's thoughts, how could he not see through it?

  Seeing her nonchalant expression, he involuntarily stopped swinging his fan and sat up straight, saying seriously: "Although your skills are not bad, Tang Xin, don't forget that Mu Tianyu is no ordinary person. He successfully advanced to the rank of Martial Saint several years ago, and such cultivation is not something you can contend with. I saw the way he looked at you, it's as if he must have you, and with his power and strength, getting you would be effortless!"

  "What's next?" She raised an eyebrow and smiled as she asked.

  "What's next? With your intelligence, can't you think of anything else?" He glared at her with a bad temper and said: "I am sworn brothers with Shang Luo, his beloved woman I naturally don't want to see anyone else coveting. You two have been together for some time now, in my opinion, the best solution is to get married early, it's also good to cut off Mu Tianyu's thoughts. After all, the reputation of the number one villa is there, even if he is a king, he dare not act rashly."

  Her clear eyes flickered slightly, she slowly lowered her eyelids and said softly: "Xia Yu, send Mr. Liu to rest!"

  "Yes, Lord Liu requests your presence." Xia Yu stepped forward and bowed slightly.

  Liu Shaobai glanced at her, then stood up and smiled at Xia Yu: "No need for Miss Xia to see me off, please stay, I'll go back by myself." With that, he turned around and walked out.

  "Sister, hasn't Mu Tianyou given up yet?" Tang Zihao furrowed his brow as he looked at her and asked again: "Today's ambush in the forest, was it also...". When he saw her slightly shaking her head to indicate that there were ears on the other side of the wall, he stopped speaking.

  "Miss, don't worry, when I booked the rooms, I reserved their several rooms in a place that is relatively far from us." Xia Xue said softly.

  "Mm." She nodded and picked up Fengfeng who was curiously listening to their conversation, gently patting his back: "Sleepy?"

  "Mom, Fengfeng is not sleepy." He lifted up his adorable smiling face and rubbed against her chest.

  Tang Xin smiled and said, "Do you want to go back with me?" Such a lovely child, although they hadn't been together for long, yet he felt reluctant to part with her.

  "Really! Fengfeng wants to follow her mother." He looked at her with shining eyes.

  "Go to sleep with Snow sister now, and I'll take you back together tomorrow." She motioned for Xia Xue to come over and hug him.

  "Okay, Fengfeng will be good and listen to mother's words." He nodded obediently, completely unlike the mischievous energy he had during the day.

  Watching Xia Xue carry him inside to sleep, Tang Xin turned to Tang Zihao: "Fatty brother, some things are better left unsaid."

  Upon hearing this, he nodded in agreement: "Sister, I think we still need to be on guard against him. What Liu Xiaobai said earlier was right, his power is indeed not something we can underestimate."

  "Uh-huh." She nodded and said: "It's getting late tonight, you should go rest too!"

  "Alright, you all get some rest too."

  "Little snow, little rain, you can go down too!" She hinted, and then walked into the house.

  "Yes." The two of them softly responded in unison, exchanged a glance and walked out, helping her close the door.

  Tang Xin approached the bedside and saw Fengfeng sleeping in a big character shape on the bed. Due to the hot weather, his clothes were taken off, and he was only wearing a red small belly cover covering his white and chubby body. His round little belly rose and fell with his breath, and that lovely appearance made her eyes soften when she saw him.

  After taking off her outer clothes and getting into bed to rest, she slowly fell asleep. However, the little guy who should have been fast asleep opened his big black eyes and stared at her intently. The more he looked, the bigger the smile on his lips grew. He slowly moved closer and snuggled into her arms, indulging in the pleasant scent of her body. After rubbing against her gently, he finally fell asleep.

  In the middle of the night, Mo Tianyou quietly pushed open Tang Xin's door as if no one was around, stepped inside, and walked to the bedside. He stopped in his tracks, hands behind his back, gazing at her who was fast asleep with a child in her arms, wearing only a thin dress.

  Through the thin veil, her beauty was even more heart-moving, her soft and smooth hair scattered randomly on the bed, her warm and beautiful face, her skin as white as snow and delicate... He quietly admired her, his eyes shining with a scorching light, inch by inch, roaming over her body, her elegant and snowy neck, her slender and seductive curves, all of which made people's hearts flutter, her beauty was increasing day by day, even he, the king who had been in power for a long time, couldn't help but be captivated.

  Unfortunately, she was too proud and refused him. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have had to use such tactics to get her.

  Tonight, they were all under the spell of Tianxiang's soul, and no one would come to disturb his good deed. He believed that if he could get her body, even if she was unwilling, she would have to follow him!

  As a strong man and a long-time ruler, he originally disdained using such means to get a woman, but when dealing with special women, he had to use special means! This was his usual way of handling things as a king.

  However, he was too confident and didn't know that Tang Xin on the bed hadn't been poisoned by Tian Xiang Mi Hun. With her title as Ghost Hand Heavenly Doctor, if she couldn't even distinguish that little bit of Mi Hun fragrance, then it would truly be a waste of the two words "Heavenly Doctor".

  She had only wanted to see who was secretly releasing the soul-capturing incense in the middle of the night, but she hadn't expected that person to push open the door and enter as if no one was there, still standing by her bedside, quietly sizing her up. The invasive gaze made a chill run down her spine. The aura emanating from this person was powerful and oppressive, and without even opening her eyes, she knew that this person was Mu Tianyu!

  At the third watch of the night, even the soul-stirring incense was used, and without thinking, she knew what he wanted to do. However, she didn't expect that a dignified ruler like him would resort to such despicable tactics. Good grief, Emperor Yu Tianyou! It seems that if she doesn't give him a taste of his own medicine, he will indeed be shameless to the extreme!

  No one saw that under Tang Xin's white inner garment sleeve, several silver needles were ready to be fired at any moment. As long as he dared to move her a little, she would let him die here!

  However, things often turn out to be beyond her imagination, and unexpected events always occur.

  As Mu Tianyu took a step forward, stretching out his hand to touch Tang Xin's face, a hidden projectile flew towards his outstretched hand with a whooshing sound. Instinctively withdrawing his hand, he looked at the projectile and found it was just a leaf!

  "Who are you!" He bellowed, his voice filled with overbearing pressure and a chilling murderous intent, his sharp gaze fixed on the masked black-clad figure standing at the door.

  Tang Xin was taken aback, wondering who else could be there. But who was secretly protecting her? Mo hadn't come this time, and among the people she knew, Di Shuang wasn't here either, while Liu Shaobai and the others must have fallen asleep after being drugged with the Soul-Confusing Incense. So, who could this person be?

  Her senses were originally keen, yet she hadn't detected the person's existence just now. That could only mean that the person's hiding ability was extremely strong. But among the people she knew, who could it be?

  The flower is gone, it shouldn't appear here, and those six old men are even more unlikely to show up, so the only one left is Mu Chenfeng who always clashes with her. But, Mu Chenfeng? It's definitely impossible for him to be here! They parted ways in the woods, he doesn't know she's here! Besides, how would that black-hearted guy protect her?

  So, who will it be?
