Yun Ruoyan's breathing gradually stabilized in Li Mo's arms, and the hands around Li Mo's waist gradually relaxed.

Li Mo stopped talking, looked down at Yun Ruoyan, and saw her curled up in his arms, a small one, her long black hair spread out and blended with his silver hair.

Li Mo couldn't help reaching out and stroking Yun Ruoyan's hair. Yun Ruoyan turned over in her sleep and turned her back to Li Mo. Li Mo clings to her back, whispering in his own voice.

"Never turn your back on me."

In the palace, in a vacant courtyard, a rather expensive lamp filled with luminous pearls emits a faint white light, illuminating this unpopular room day and night.

Li Qianyuan, who was dressed in red, was sitting slanted on the soft couch in the room, and a palace servant who looked like a eunuch was kneeling in front of him.

"I don't want to waste my saliva, so you can do it yourself." Li Qianyuan said while admiring his slender fingers.

"Four...four princes, the little one...the little one has always followed the requirements of the four princes, and will come to Juxiang Garden every day to watch the night, and all the items in the garden will be maintained regularly." He was trembling, and his voice was also trembling.

"Come here, open the cabinet and take out the sandalwood box inside." Li Qianyuan ordered lazily, and the other two palace servants standing beside him had to order to open the only wardrobe in the room and take out the box from the cabinet. A sandalwood box.

Li Qianyuan took the sandalwood box, and gently stroked the exquisite carvings on the box.

"It used to contain a piece of clothing that my concubine mother liked the most during her lifetime, but now it's empty." Li Qianyuan slowly opened the box and said to the palace maid, "You said you keep vigil every day and take care of it frequently, so what? Where did this dress go?"

"Slave... Slave, I don't know." Cold sweat broke out on the palace man's forehead, and he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe them off one by one on the ground.

"Do you slaves think that the prince will never come back after being sent to Shen country?"

Li Qianyuan closed the box again, and stroked the flower pattern on the box cover again with his slender and white fingers, and said, "Taking my advantage, not only did you not do anything for me, but you also lied to me. Do you think this prince is deaf or blind?!"

"The servant dare not!"

Li Qianyuan's suddenly aggravated tone made the two palace servants standing beside him also kneel down.

"This prince doesn't need a slave who is blind and full of lies." Li Qianyuan glanced coldly at the palace man kneeling at his feet, and said, "Chop off his hands, goug out his eyes, cut off his tongue, and throw him in Mass graves fend for themselves.”

"Of course, Fourth Prince!" The two palace servants next to him immediately stood up and pulled down the palace servant who had fainted from fright.

The palace servants retreated, and Li Qianyuan was the only one left in the room. He stood up from the couch, walked to the wooden cabinet with the sandalwood box carved with flowers in his arms, and put the box back into the cabinet.

"Mother, Miss Yun's family is wearing your clothes." Li Qianyuan said slowly while holding the cupboard door: "When mother took me to play at Yun's house when I was young, my son met her. She was the same as when I was young." It's not the same. However, the clothes don't look ugly on her."

...

Yun Ruoyan was awakened by Li Mo, and when she opened her eyes, the sky was already pale.

Li Mo turned back into black hair and black robe, Yun Ruoyan was a little dazed, as if last night was just a dream.

"Let's go, why are you in a daze again? Did you not sleep last night?" Li Mo stood on the sword light, smiling at the dazed Yun Ruoyan.

"Slept very well." Yun Ruoyan stretched out her hand, and Li Mo grabbed her and pulled her into his arms.

Li Mo sent Yun Ruoyan back to Tinglan Garden and left quietly without disturbing anyone.

Yun Ruoyan went back to the house and took a nap for a while, and vaguely heard Yun Moxiao's voice in the yard, she got up and opened the door and said to Yun Moxiao who was talking to Shaoyao in the yard: "Brother, I'm coming back gone."

"When did you come back?" Yun Moxiao frowned at her.

"I... I've been back a long time ago." Yun Ruoyan answered vaguely, holding her forehead.

Yun Ruoyan knew what Yun Moxiao was worried about. She was still young and talented, and Yun Moxiao was worried that she would regret it after committing herself to a man too early, or be abandoned by that man, so she was sad.

When Yun Ruoyan was as ugly and weak as before, Yun Moxiao hoped that she could find a family to live in peace and stability earlier, and that family had better be one he could live in, so that Yun Ruoyan would be bullied by his elder brother Can stand up for her.

But now the situation has completely changed. Yun Ruoyan is not only more beautiful now, but also has such a high talent. If she continues to practice like this, she will have a bright future.

Yun Moxiao didn't want Yun Ruoyan to fall into feelings prematurely and delay his cultivation.

Not to mention that the other party is still Yu Wang Limo, who makes Yun Moxiao feel powerless, when Yun Moxiao thinks that if one day Li Mo starts to abandon Yun Ruoyan, but he can't stand up for Yun Ruoyan, he will have a feeling of embarrassment. heart feeling.

"Ruoyan, you are leaving for Kongming Academy in two days!" Yun Moxiao walked to Yun Ruoyan's side and said in a serious tone.

"I know, brother." Yun Ruoyan found that Li Mo and Yun Moxiao were more nervous than her client. She was not nervous before, but now she was infected by them.

"I'm going to retreat for the past two days, so why don't I go anywhere?" Yun Ruoyan begged for mercy when she saw that Yun Moxiao still wanted to talk.

Yun Moxiao looked at Yun Ruoyan and said helplessly: "I will follow my father to the court hall these two days, and I may not be able to stare at you every day. I will send you to Kongming Academy in two days."

After Yun Moxiao left, Yun Ruoyan began to practice. She had to ensure that the spiritual sea was filled and transformed into enough fire elemental spiritual power to cope with the trials that would soon come.

After entering cultivation, time flies by very quickly, and the sky darkens before you know it.

In the evening, Li Qianhan came to give Yun Ruoyan a space ring, and he told Yun Ruoyan that Li Mo would not be able to see her off after two days of going out, Yun Ruoyan seemed indifferent on the surface, but felt a little disappointed in his heart.

Li Qianhan took out the items in the space ring one by one, placed them on the table, and explained their uses to Yun Ruoyan one by one.

Most of these things are bottles and cans. Li Qianhan introduced some elixir and some detoxification pills. Although Li Mo didn't know the exact location of the entrance trial, he knew that there must be a lot of poison there. Therefore, Yun Ruoyan was prepared with a detoxification pill in case of emergencies.

In addition to various pills, there is also a dagger that cuts gold and iron. Li Qianhan introduced that although this dagger is not a spiritual weapon, it is very sharp forged from black iron.

"Uncle Xiaohuang asked me to hand this to you." Li Qianhan flipped his hands and took out a snow-white bead, and the oval protruding part of the bead was threaded with a rope to make a pendant.

Yun Ruoyan took the beads and felt a slight coolness on the beads.

"What is this for?" Yun Ruoyan asked.

"This is the inner alchemy of the fish monster." Li Qianhan said, "The emperor's uncle refined it overnight, and holding it in his mouth can help him breathe in the water, and extend the time underwater, at least one hour at a time."

Yun Ruoyan's eyes lit up, and she thought, "There is such a good thing!"

All Yun Ruoyan's attention was on Li Mo's face last night, and she didn't notice when he took out the inner alchemy.

She recalled that Li Mo spent so much effort to kill the fish monster last night, and it turned out that she didn't just want to eat its meat, but for the inner alchemy of this fish.

With so many treasures by his side, and the cultivation base of a seventh-level sword master, Yun Ruoyan's nervousness infected by Li Mo and Yun Moxiao soon dissipated.

"Master." Chirping voice sounded in Yun Ruoyan's mind.

"What's wrong, Jiujiu?" Yun Ruoyan asked.

"I feel that the master is too relaxed." Jiujiu said directly: "I am worried that you will underestimate the enemy."

"I won't." Yun Ruoyan said with a clear attitude: "I just have confidence in my heart, so I am not nervous. Not being nervous and underestimating the enemy are two different things. I will not underestimate the enemy."

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and finally it was time to go to Kongming Academy. The opening of Kongming Academy was five days later, but the road in the Kongming Mountains was full of twists and turns, and it would take two to three days on the road. You can do some rest in two days.

Li Qianxiao was responsible for sending Yun Ruoyan and others to Kongming Academy, but when they were about to leave, something unexpected happened to Yun Ruoyan.

Yun Ruoyu fell ill suddenly, and it was very serious. According to the girl in Zelanyuan, she was vomiting and diarrhea, and lost her human form overnight. If San Yiniang hadn't rushed there in time, Yun Ruoyu would have disappeared.

There was really no other way, Yun Ruoyu had to give up her admission to Kongming Academy this time.

As a result, Yun Ruoyao was completely left alone, she felt depressed, Yun Ruoyu would not get sick sooner or later, but at this time she fell ill, it seemed like she was doing it on purpose.

When the sun jumped out of the horizon, Yun Ruoyan and Yun Ruoyao bid farewell to Yun Lan and Liu Shi, each with a mutant firework horse, escorted by Yun Moxiao, and headed towards the Kongming Mountain Range.

Kongming Peak is in the depths of Kongming Mountain Range, even at the foot of Kongming Mountain Range, it takes a whole day to reach Kongming Peak, so the three of them chose to ride horses instead of driving.

When leaving the imperial city, Yun Ruoyan, the sisters of the Lin family, and Zhuo Yifeng met, and the three of them also rode a mutant firework horse.

Firework horses were quite precious, the Lin family only had two horses in total, Lin Qingchen and Lin Qingxue rode one together, and Zhuo Yifeng rode one alone.

Yun Ruoyao is not welcome in this team. She also has a reputation of self-knowledge. She rides a horse by herself and doesn't greet everyone.

After the reunion, they were about to leave when Yi Qianying's voice came from behind.

"Sister Ruoyao, would you like to pair up with us?"

A few people looked back and saw Yi Qianying riding a horse in front of a group of about ten people.

Most of them are the children of the family in the imperial city, and Yun Ruoyan also saw Rong Yueshan who had met at the prince's wedding banquet, she still had that arrogant posture on the horse.

Rong Yueshan was followed by four or five men in samurai uniforms. They seemed to be not low in cultivation. They should be the servants who escorted her.

Rong Tianling is the prince's uncle, Yi Qianying is now the prince's side concubine, and Rong Yueshan still calls Yi Qianying a cousin, so it is expected that they form a team.

There are also those family members who are obviously attached to the Rong family and the Prince's Mansion, Yun Ruoyao joined this team without hesitation.

At this time, Rong Yueshan suddenly drove her horse over, but her eyes were not on Yun Ruoyan, but on Yun Moxiao.
