Fengming Hall.
Looking at the empty palace, Duanmuxi frowned and walked slowly inside.
Walking inside, Duan Muxi saw the portraits of the empresses of the past generations. Below the portraits were the tablets of the empress and the Phoenix Queen.
Duanmu Xi's eyes flickered.
The clan rules of the Duanmu family are really strange. These Phoenix Empresses were not allowed to enter the Fengming Hall when they were alive, but their memorial tablets were allowed in after they were dead.
Are they afraid that these queens will be lonely and have no one to accompany them
Duan Muxi looked at the bright yellow futon on the ground with a wry smile on her lips.
Thinking that she had not even lowered her head to her father and mother in the Vast Sky Continent, but now she has to kowtow to these tablets.
That's all, that's all, since these are all your ancestors, it doesn't matter if you kowtow a few times.
Duanmuxi knelt down after thinking about it and kowtowed to the tablets three times.
After the three bowed their heads, a fiery red halo suddenly appeared in front of the futon, and the red halo shot straight to the top of the hall. In the center of the halo was an inscription that she could not understand.
Duan Muxi looked at the fiery red light circle, a little confused.
Standing up, she carefully stepped into the red circle of light.
The scene in front of him changed instantly, and Duan Muxi blinked.
what happened? What is this place
Before she could see clearly, a wave of heat hit her, and the hot breath made her extremely uncomfortable.
Duan Muxi immediately wanted to find a way out, but she searched around and couldn't find a window, let alone a door.
Flames clung to all the walls, even the ceiling above her.
Now she seriously doubted whether she had entered someone's alchemy furnace
"If you don't refine the alchemy furnace, this place will be a raging flame."
Just as Duanmuxi was thinking, Lan Ze's weak voice sounded in his mind.
"Lan Ze, what's wrong with you?" Duan Muxi was shocked and immediately worried.
"The fire spirit here is too strong, I can't stand it."
Lanze's voice was hoarse, as if he was trying to suppress something.
Duanmuxi frowned, with a worried look on his face.
"Are you okay? I'll find a way to get out now."
"I can't do it anymore. I have to practice. There is plenty of fire spirit power here. If you can't get out, Master, you can practice."
In the mental space, Lanze was sweating profusely, sitting cross-legged with a painful look on his face, and began to practice.
In this situation now, he can only feel better if he continues to practice water spiritual power.
It's a good thing that the master ate the water spirit fruit, otherwise he wouldn't be able to cultivate any water spirit power in this flame tower.
"Blue Ze."
Duanmuxi frowned after calling twice without any response.
After searching carefully several times, there was still no way out. Helpless, Duan Muxi could only follow Lan Ze's instructions and sit down to practice fire spiritual power.
In the courtyard of the East Palace, Xuanyuan Mo looked in the direction of Fengming Palace with a slight frown.
It's been three days and Xi'er hasn't come out yet. Could something have happened
"come out."
The sudden movement in the air made Xuanyuan Mo's eyes gleam.
A man in black appeared out of thin air and half-knelt in front of Xuanyuan Mo.
"I see you, Your Majesty."
Mikage
Xuanyuan Mo frowned, "What's the matter?"
Yuying lowered his eyes respectfully, "The Emperor's secret decree is to urgently summon the prince back to the palace."
"Do you know what's going on?" His brows tightened a little more.
Yuying's eyes flickered, "I don't know."
"Go down."
Yuying raised his eyes and said, "Your Majesty."
"Go down."
The voice was a bit colder than before.
"My subordinates resign."
Mikage didn't dare to hesitate any more and disappeared from the room.
Another three days passed. Not only Xuanyuan Mo was worried about Duanmuxi, but Duanmuxue and Huangfu Che also started to worry.
Duanmuxue even entered Fengming Hall in person, but there was no trace of Duanmuxi.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has issued three secret edicts. Please, Your Majesty, follow your subordinates back to Baihu."
Mikage's voice was extremely resentful.
Looking at Yuying kneeling at his feet, Xuanyuan Mo frowned.
What happened to my father that he was so anxious to recruit him back to the palace
Three days later, Duan Muxi still didn't come out. Xuanyuan Mo had no choice but to say goodbye to Duan Muxue and Huangfu Che.
The two of them were a little surprised when they heard that Xuanyuan Mo was leaving.
"Master Xuanyuan, do you really want to leave? Can't you wait for Xi'er to come out?" Huangfu Che frowned lightly.
"Yes, Mr. Xuanyuan is gone like this. How can we explain to Xi'er when she comes out?" Duanmuxue also said.
Xuanyuan Mo's amber eyes flashed slightly.
"Two seniors, the junior also wants to wait for Xi'er to come out, but the junior has to go back to the White Tiger Country now. The junior has a letter here, please pass it to her."
Xuanyuan Mo said, taking out a letter from his arms and handing it to Duanmuxue.
Duanmuxue took the letter and put it away carefully.
"Junior, take your leave."
Xuanyuan Mo bowed his hands to Huangfu Che and Duan Muxue, turned around and left.
In the blink of an eye, more than twenty days have passed.
Duanmuxi still didn't come out. Duanmuxue entered Fengming Hall again for this reason, but still found nothing.
"Che, it's been so long and Xi'er hasn't come out yet, could it be..."
Duanmuxue frowned with regret, "It's all my fault. If I had known this, I would never have let Xi'er contract with Suzaku. Now Xi'er is missing."
No matter how good the Suzaku beast is, it can't compare to her Xi'er.
Seeing Duanmuxue's anxious and self-blaming look, Huangfu Che hugged her distressedly.
"Don't think wildly, Xi'er is a lucky person of her own destiny. We should believe her, the Xi'er of today is no longer the Xi'er of the past."
Duanmuxue nodded, "Well, I should believe Xi'er, she can definitely do it."
Suddenly thinking of something, Duanmuxue said again, "The day after tomorrow is Xi'er's birthday, and now Xi'er is missing, can we still hold this birthday banquet?"
Huangfu Che's eyes flashed lightly.
"Since Xi'er is not here, let's cancel the birthday. When Xi'er comes out, we will compensate her."
Duanmuxue frowned and sighed softly.
"Well, that's all."
White Tiger Kingdom, Imperial Study Room.
Xuanyuan Lie looked at his favorite son in front of him and sneered.
"Humph, I'm finally willing to come back."
"Why are you summoning me back to the palace so urgently?" Xuanyuan Mo ignored Xuanyuan Lie's taunt and said expressionlessly.
Xuanyuan Lie frowned, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
"I will choose a concubine for you tomorrow. Please prepare."
If you don't help him choose a concubine, he will really fly.
Xuanyuan Mo frowned, "Don't worry about me, I have a woman I like."
Why do you have to choose a concubine for him when you have nothing to do? As an emperor, he is really busy!
"The woman you like?"
Xuanyuan Lie snorted coldly, "Is she the princess of the Suzaku Kingdom?"
Xuanyuan Mo was stunned for a moment, then frowned, "Yes."
"I disagree."
Xuanyuan Lie looked at his Bingshan son and yelled angrily.
Xuanyuan Mo raised his eyebrows slightly, "Whatever, no one wants your consent."
