The passage was dark.
But the red dress on Nangong Huoyue was like a flame, emitting light and heat.
Under the fluttering red skirt.
The pair of bare snow-white jade feet were actually stepping on flames, and lotus flowers bloomed with every step.
Luo Qingzhou followed behind him in silence.
The steps meandered down into the ground.
I don’t know how much time passed.
The vital energy of heaven and earth in the air suddenly became thicker.
After going down another flight of stairs, we finally reached flat ground.
After passing through a passage, there is a heavy iron door in front of you. There are many strange runes engraved on the iron door, and waves of the aura of the formation are coming from it.
The vitality of heaven and earth here is becoming more and more rich.
Luo Qingzhou even had an urge to sit down here and practice.
He had already guessed something.
Nangong Huoyue brought him to the heavy iron door and stopped.
Then, he turned around and looked at him with a complicated expression.
Luo Qingzhou met her gaze in silence.
After a long while, Nangong Huoyue raised her jade feet and took a step closer to him. She looked at him tenderly and said softly, "Hold me for a moment."
Luo Qingzhou was slightly startled, then he stretched out his arms and gently held her in his arms.
Nangong Huoyue gently pressed against his chest, and after a moment of silence, she said in a complicated tone: "Before my father died, he told me that the secret here should not be known to any outsider. Even my mother and he didn't know... Now, I've brought you in, and I hope you can tell me in person..."
She raised her face and looked at him tenderly: "To me, are you... an outsider?"
Luo Qingzhou looked into her dark and gentle eyes, was silent for a moment, and said: "To His Majesty, I am certainly not an outsider."
Nangong Huoyue whispered again: "Then what are you?"
Luo Qingzhou looked at her charming and gentle appearance, and couldn't help but lower his head, gently kissed her red lips, and said: "Your husband."
Nangong Huoyue's eyelashes trembled, her expression was dazed for a moment, and suddenly she asked: "Then... am I your legal wife?"
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, then said, "No."
The air suddenly became silent.
Nangong Huoyue stared at him for a while and said, "Have you heard of the spirit mine? There is a spirit mine inside, and in the spirit mine, there is a spirit mine heart. With it, you can soon break through to the Grandmaster level. When you break through to the Grandmaster level, you can protect your family and help me kill Lan Ling. Do you want it?"
Luo Qingzhou nodded and said, "I want it."
Nangong Huoyue raised her arms, her sleeves slipped down, revealing two snow-white, slender arms. She gently hugged his neck, then gently stood on tiptoes and kissed him on the lips.
She blinked her eyelashes and whispered, "My husband, I will give you one last chance... Tell me, is your queen, your majesty, your beloved Huo Yue, your legal wife?"
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head slightly and said, "No."
The air fell silent again.
Nangong Huoyue stared at him for a while, then slowly lowered her body, bent her knees, knelt at his feet, hugged his legs with her arms, then raised her charming and gentle face, bit her red lips, and said softly: "Husband, how about this? As long as you satisfy me, I will... satisfy you in the future. As long as there is no one else around, you can let me serve you in any way you want, okay?"
Luo Qingzhou also knelt down, but stubbornly remained silent.
Nangong Huoyue frowned and looked at him with a sad expression, saying, "Your Majesty, who is high above me, I will kneel at your feet and become your servant. I will let you be high above me and let you bully and play with me as you please. Is that not okay?"
Luo Qingzhou looked at her in a daze.
After a while, he suddenly said: "You are not the queen."
Nangong Huoyue locked eyes with him for a while, then slowly stood up and looked down at him. Her demeanor suddenly regained its coldness and majesty: "I'll ask you one last time, am I your legal wife?"
Luo Qingzhou still knelt on the ground and said, "No."
Nangong Huoyue clenched her fists in her sleeves and said, "I am the ruler of a country, an emperor respected by all. I have been a princess from a high position since I was a child. You want me to be your concubine? Do you think it's possible?"
Then he said in a cold voice: "If you don't want to, leave now. You don't have to think about my treasure anymore."
Luo Qingzhou paused, slowly stood up, and looked at her with complicated eyes.
Nangong Huoyue saw him like this and thought he had given in, so she quickly softened her tone and said, "Don't worry, I won't bully them. I'm the emperor, and I just want a decent status. At least, my father in heaven won't blame me. As long as you're willing, I'll... as long as there's no one else around, I'll never act like an emperor again, and even if you dare to ride on me, I'll obey you in everything... OK?"
Luo Qingzhou bowed his head, said nothing, and turned away.
Nangong Huoyue looked at his resolute back, a light flashing in her eyes. When he was about to walk out of the passage, she suddenly said, "Come back!"
Luo Qingzhou stopped.
Nangong Huoyue looked at him with complicated eyes and said, "You have passed the test. At least I know that you did not marry me for my spiritual mine. You are willing to give up the spiritual mine just for a mere title. Chu Feiyang, I don't know whether I should praise you or laugh at you."
After saying that, she turned around, and her hands ignited flames with a "whoosh" and placed them in the patterns on the iron gate.
"Boom..."
The iron gate suddenly flashed with light, and the patterns on it began to distort and deform.
Then, slowly open it.
An extremely pure energy from heaven and earth suddenly rushed towards him.
Even though Luo Qingzhou was standing far away in the passage, he could still clearly feel this extraordinary energy of heaven and earth.
The energy in his body suddenly began to stir.
Even the root of the thunder spirit began to jump with arcs of electricity.
He couldn't help but turn around and go back.
When he arrived at the door, Nangong Huoyue suddenly turned around, looked at him with a dignified and cold gaze and said, "Do you want it?"
Luo Qingzhou breathed in the pure air and said, "I want it."
Nangong Huoyue snorted softly and said, "You can't defeat me. I am the emperor of Da Yan, and I have many ways to turn your wife into a concubine. However, I am not so narrow-minded. When the rebellion is over, I will revise the Da Yan Etiquette Law. At that time, every man can have two wives, regardless of age. At the same time, every woman will no longer be bound by the orders of her parents and the words of the matchmaker, and can freely choose her own marriage."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said nothing.
Nangong Huoyue showed a smug look on her face: "How is it? Are you dumbfounded? I want to be the legal wife, who can stop me?"
Luo Qingzhou gave in at the right time and said, "Your Majesty is still more skilled. I admit defeat."
Nangong Huoyue's mouth curled up proudly, and said: "When the time comes, I will revise some other contents of the Great Yan Etiquette. When it comes out, I will give you a copy as soon as possible. Remember to take it back and read it carefully with your wife and concubines, and don't violate the above regulations."
Luo Qingzhou said: "As you command."
Nangong Huoyue proudly stretched out her jade hand and said, "Help me."
Luo Qingzhou reached out and held it. It felt delicate and smooth, as if it had no bones.
Nangong Huoyue suddenly stabbed his palm hard with her nails, glared at him faintly, then turned around and walked in.
Luo Qingzhou followed behind.
"There is only one spiritual mine in the whole of Da Yan. The five major sects of Da Yan, Dragon Tiger Academy, and some other forces used by the court will get some every year. Of course, Dragon Tiger Academy benefits the most, because most of the students who graduate from it will work for the court..."
"Spiritual ore is not endless, it is consumed every day. In order to allow the warriors of Da Yan to pass on from generation to generation, we must control consumption..."
"The reason why Piao Miao Xian Zong wants to control us is for this spiritual mine and for the army of our Great Yan. If I surrender to them and become their puppet, then our Great Yan will soon be destroyed. They will take our spiritual mine without regard for the consequences, and for their own interests, they will let our army and people die to pave the way for their development... Therefore, I would rather die with honor than agree to them."
"Of course, there are good people in Piao Miao Xian Zong. That Lan Ling is just one of the representatives of the bad guys..."
"If we in Da Yan want to survive in this cruel world, we must be self-reliant and strong, not afraid of any bad guys, and dare to fight against any forces that want to destroy us..."
"The spiritual mine is not the private treasure of my royal family, nor is it the treasure of me, Nangong Huoyue, alone. It belongs to the warriors of Da Yan from generation to generation. So I brought you here today, which is against the rules of my ancestors, and I also risk being cursed by the descendants of Da Yan..."
"Once the Spiritual Mine Heart is consumed, the entire Spiritual Mine will quickly wither..."
"But I still decided to give it to you so that you can practice quickly and grow up quickly."
"Because I know that the situation is already very critical. If we don't stop Lan Ling and those greedy people from Piao Miao Xian Zong, our Great Yan will soon encounter disaster or even be destroyed."
"So, I decided to go all out and give you the Heart of the Spiritual Mine. I will leave the fate of the entire Great Yan to you. As long as you become stronger and help Great Yan resist them, then we still have a chance..."
"In fact, I thought about this matter for a long time and hesitated for a long time... but finally made this decision."
"Chu Feiyang, with your talent and training speed, I believe that you will not let me down, and will not let down all the people of Dayan."
"Of course, if I fail, it's nothing. The spiritual mine will eventually be taken away and exhausted. I am not afraid of being cursed for eternity..."
As Nangong Huoyue spoke, she brought him to an open space.
Under the stars, a winding and towering crystal mountain range looks like a giant dragon, lying there with its eyes closed and resting.
In the very middle of the Lingkuang Mountains, a ball of milky white light was flickering faintly.
It's like a heart beating "dong dong dong".
Nangong Huoyue turned her head and looked into his dark eyes. She paused and said slowly, "Chu Feiyang, are you willing to help me shoulder this responsibility and help me save the fate of the entire Great Yan?"
Luo Qingzhou withdrew his gaze from the spiritual mine, looked into her eyes, and said calmly: "Between husband and wife, what's the point of talking about willingness. Even if I die for you and fall into the abyss forever, I am willing and will never regret it."
The air was silent for a moment.
Nangong Huoyue hugged him and whispered, "Husband, from now on you call me Your Majesty and I will call you brother, okay?"
Luo Qingzhou was slightly startled, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Okay."
Nangong Huoyue slowly knelt down, raised her beautiful and charming face, looked at him tenderly and said, "Brother... I am very touched, so... please let me be your little licking dog..."
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
"Winter! Winter! Winter!"
The heart of the spiritual mine in front is still beating gently.
A warm and moist energy rushed towards him, as if it was going to flow directly into his body through the acupuncture points on the top of his head...
at the same time.
In a room in the Qin Mansion, on the bed, behind the drawn curtains.
A young girl in a snow-white dress was hugging her knees, with her head slightly lowered, looking at the message in her hand. She wrote on it several times with her slender jade fingers and then deleted them.
It seems like I want to take the initiative to send a message to someone, but I am hesitant and reserved...
Under the soft white skirt, the pair of snow-white slender jade feet, like her beautiful face, are breathtakingly beautiful...
"Winter! Winter! Winter!"
In another room, a girl in a pink dress was sitting at the table, pounding medicine with a pestle.
There was a popping sound in the medicine jar and the medicine juice splashed.
In the back garden.
The girl in a light green dress was still practicing sword skills without knowing the hardship.
The sword energy was invisible, covering the entire garden.
This night, it seems like everyone is working hard...
