Chapter 1 Big Sister, I Think This Is a Misunderstanding (4)

  Continue to ask for recommendation votes and clicks. I'm a bit sad, Jiu Shen and Tian Zhu Bian have both made it onto the recommended list, and they're right next to each other. If we concentrated all our efforts on one book, our ranking would be second. Trying to post a picture, this is the Ruby, in the future Xiao San will post pictures of all the gems that appear in the book and give a brief introduction. The Ruby doesn't need much explanation, everyone's already very familiar with it.

  "Your Highness, no!" Niya exclaimed, trying to stop Diya, but she was already furious, her right hand blocking Niya's, while her left hand had already risen in the direction of Zhou Weiqing.

  Although Naiya was a superior body cultivator, her heavenly power cultivation was only two levels higher than Di Fuya's, and she didn't dare to use too much heavenly power when not using the Body Pearl. In an instant, she was blocked by Di Fuya's raised right hand, and in that brief moment, Di Fuya had already completed her attack on Zhou Weiqing.

  Tiffany's left wrist sparkled with the first ruby-like gem, and a human-head-sized fireball burst out, leaving a dazzling trail in the sky before heavily slamming into Zhou Weiqing's back. The fireball exploded with a loud crash, and Zhou Weiqing let out a miserable cry as he was blasted five meters away, landing heavily on the ground, rolling over several times, his back now a bloody mess with a lingering smell of char.

  "You, you..." He barely lifted his head and looked at Tifa, who was also stunned after attacking him. He never thought that Tifa would actually attack him, and with such ferocity.

  Tiffany's face turned pale, and after her outburst of anger, she immediately realized the gravity of the situation. She was well aware of the power of her first soul skill, Exploding Fireball, and for a moment, her heart was trembling with fear. No matter what, Zhou Weiqing was still the son of the Empire's Marshal, and now it was too late for her to regret her actions.

  Nia, as Empress Tifa's personal bodyguard, was also stunned. Her undergarments were instantly drenched in cold sweat. If Princess Tifa killed General Zhou Weiqing, who had been granted the title of Viscount at birth, it would likely lead to chaos throughout the empire. However, neither she nor Empress Tifa was skilled in healing, and both women were now at a loss for what to do.

  At this moment, the sky which was originally clear suddenly turned dark, a burst of thunder sounded in the starry forest, and then the entire sky became as black as ink within a few breaths. Both Tifa and Nia felt an inexplicable chill in their hearts.

  "I, I didn't mean to." Tifa muttered.

  Nina also came to her senses at this time, and she pulled Tiffa along with her: "Your Highness, the sky is not right, let's hurry up and leave, first return to the palace and then talk about it, find a life-saving master to save Lord Zhou." As she spoke, she pulled Tiffa hard and turned around to run. She was very clear that Zhou Weiqing, an ordinary person, had been hit by Tiffa's intention pearl skill, and the possibility of him surviving was extremely low. At this time, it was necessary to leave the scene first, otherwise, if someone else saw them, they would really be finished. Leaving here first was the most correct choice, fire-type masters in the Tian Gong Empire were not many, but there was definitely more than one Princess Tiffa, as long as they were not on the scene, everything still had room for maneuver.

  Zhou Weiqing lay on the ground, his entire body unable to move, but he could clearly hear the footsteps of Di Tian and Niya leaving. At this moment, he felt as if his entire body had been submerged in a sea of molten lava, with his blood boiling over, and every time he opened his mouth, a faint red mist would spew out. The back that was hit by the explosive fireball didn't hurt because it had long since gone numb, but the scorching fire poison was corroding every part of his body. If he had been rescued by a life-saving Zhen Qi master immediately after being attacked by Di Tian, perhaps he would have still had a chance to survive, but now the fire poison had invaded his lungs, and his life was slowly slipping away from him.

  Zhou Weiqing was originally a very optimistic person, otherwise, as the son of a marshal who couldn't cultivate and was an ordinary person, he wouldn't have been able to live so comfortably. He didn't want to die, not one bit, he still had many things he wanted to do that he hadn't done yet. No matter what, he never thought he would end up dying at the hands of his fiancée. In fact, he wasn't particularly resentful towards Empress Fei'er, he only hated heaven for not giving him a body capable of cultivating, if he could also become a Jewel Master, then everything would be different. A strong sense of resentment was constantly emanating from Zhou Weiqing's body like a tangible thing, in his heart he viciously swore: "Empress Fei'er, if I don't die this time, one day I will make you kneel before me and beg me to marry you, then I will abandon you like a worn-out shoe."

  After making this final vow, Zhou Weiqing's consciousness began to gradually blur, and even that extremely scorching feeling was getting fainter and fainter. Is my life really going to end like this? This was his last thought in his heart.

  At this moment, suddenly, a loud rumbling sound, a thunderous roar seemed to appear above his head like a burst of thunder, and Zhou Weiqing, who was in a semi-conscious state, was shocked back into temporary wakefulness. He stared wide-eyed at an extremely eerie scene.

  A black fissure suddenly appeared in the air three feet in front of him, and the air seemed to be a huge eye that quietly tore apart to both sides. Due to the previous intense rumbling, Zhou Weiqing was shaken so much that his mouth was wide open, and another mouthful of pale red blood mist sprayed out from his mouth.

  At this moment, a strange light appeared in the black fissure, like the pupil of a huge black eye. It was a spherical object, about the size of an infant's fist, with a body as black as ink, but with cyan, blue and silver colors on its surface. The blood mist that Zhou Weiqing had just spat out landed right on this strange black bead. Suddenly, a burst of extremely cold air that Zhou Weiqing had never felt before erupted from the black bead and instantly rushed into his body.

  Zhou Weiqing's body began to shake violently, and the scorching heat that had been building up until now suddenly vanished. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his previously dazed emotions suddenly became extremely excited. Everything around him also became exceptionally clear in his senses.

  That black bead seemed to be pulled by some force in his body, and with a whoosh, it directly drilled into his mouth. Zhou Weiqing only felt a chill in his throat, and his whole body was like an ice sculpture, all consciousness was instantly sealed off, and he fainted.

  The rift above Zhou Weiqing's body quietly closed, and the sky that was pitch black just a moment ago calmed down. The dark clouds dispersed slowly, and sunlight once again descended upon the Starry Forest, as well as the icy spring lake.
