Su Xiaoliu lowered her head and stared blankly at the ground.
Feng Yufei... What kind of person was he exactly? What was the relationship between the Yun Ruo in the painting and him? Why did he give her a sense of boundless emotionlessness? All these made her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Elder sister, what on earth is the Rebirth Fruit..." Su Xiaoliu raised her head, about to look at Su Lou'er. But suddenly a faint fragrance wafted past her nose. She was stunned for a moment, then closed her eyes and fell unconscious.
A slender hand retracted. The beautiful eyes drooped slightly, and the tear mole at the corner of the eye flickered. She bent down, helped Su Xiaoliu up, and laid her on the stone bed, then straightened up.
Su Lou'er was stunned for a moment. She quickly looked at the person who had drugged Su Xiaoliu and asked in puzzlement, "Mo Xin?"
Mo Xin looked up at Su Lou'er, smiled faintly, and said, "This is the only way to keep her alive for now. Since she already knows about the Rebirth Fruit, this is the only thing we can do."
Su Lou'er looked at Mo Xin,欲言又止. Her gauze skirt trailed on the ground, and her long black hair fell on her shoulders. She turned her head and quietly looked at Su Xiaoliu. Then she walked over, crouched down, and gently ran her slender fingers across Su Xiaoliu's cheek. She murmured to herself, "Xiaoliu, wait a little longer, just a little longer..."
"I'll take her away."
Suddenly a nice voice came from behind. Mo Xin and Su Lou'er both turned their heads. After seeing the person coming, they were both stunned.
The man was wearing a crimson robe, and his white inner - garment was lazily revealed. Golden peonies were embroidered on the brocade fabric. On his extremely beautiful face, his phoenix - like eyes were slightly upturned. A phoenix - tail mark on his fair forehead glowed brightly. After his gaze settled, his red lips curved up, smiling extremely charmingly.
The moon was cold, and the ground was bathed in its light like water.
Zhong Fengyue in a white robe walked into the main hall. In the empty middle of the hall, only the candles were burning and crackling.
His jade - like ink - colored eyes suddenly trembled at that moment. His long and slender hand couldn't help but clench the sword in his hand tightly. He quickly went upstairs and pushed open the door of Su Xiaoliu's room.
The small window was half - open. The cabinet beside was rummaged through, and brocades were scattered all over the floor. The night was thick, making the inside of the room dim and hazy. Su Xiaoliu was sitting quietly on the side of the bed railing. The moonlight flowed over her body. Her green silk dress hung on the ground, and her long black hair was loose, revealing a delicate heart - shaped face.
On the heart - shaped face, a pair of almond eyes were slightly open. Her small nose and slightly parted lower lip emitted a special and charming aura that flashed by. After the door was pushed open, she slowly turned her head and looked at Zhong Fengyue standing at the door. In the darkness, her pair of spiritual eyes were extremely clear.
"Xiaoliu." Zhong Fengyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. His rosy diamond - shaped lips curved up slightly, and he walked to the bed railing.
Su Xiaoliu looked up at Zhong Fengyue, tilted her head and smiled, "Husband."
Zhong Fengyue was slightly stunned. He concealed a trace of surprise in his eyes and said with a smile, "Why aren't you asleep so late?" He glanced at the somewhat messy cabinet. There was a faint sense of unease in his heart. He added, "Did something happen?"
Su Xiaoliu reached out and grabbed Zhong Fengyue's sleeve. Her almond eyes stared at him quietly and she said softly, "Husband, if I give the Rebirth Fruit to someone else, will you be angry?"
Zhong Fengyue was stunned. He looked down at Su Xiaoliu. Seeing that she was staring at him without blinking, he slowly curled up the corner of his mouth and said, "It depends on who it is for." A trace of hesitation gradually appeared in his eyes.
Su Xiaoliu lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Let's not care about these things. Let's go home."
In the darkness, her face couldn't be seen clearly.
"Okay, let's go home." Zhong Fengyue looked at her and said softly.
After a while, Su Xiaoliu looked up at Zhong Fengyue and whispered, "Let's leave tomorrow."
His ink - colored eyes met hers. He nodded slightly and said, "Okay, we'll leave tomorrow."
Su Xiaoliu curled up the corner of her mouth, but suddenly her wrist was grabbed. She was stunned.
Zhong Fengyue bent down. His warm breath sprayed on her neck, and the white gauze gently brushed across her cheek. Su Xiaoliu's body trembled slightly.
His long and slender fingers gently brushed across her hair. Zhong Fengyue murmured, "My wife used not to call me husband..." The corner of his mouth raised, and his hand slowly fell downward.
His somewhat cold fingertips landed on her neck. Her almond eyes trembled slightly.
"Who does my wife want to give the Rebirth Fruit to?" A flash of light passed through his ink - colored eyes. He smiled lightly and exhaled in her ear, "Huh?"
Her almond eyes stared blankly ahead. For a moment, she forgot to react.
Zhong Fengyue slowly let go of the hand that was holding her wrist, straightened up, and said, "Tell me, and I'll get the real fruit for you..."
With a "bang", Su Xiaoliu stood up. Her pair of almond eyes stared at him intently and said, "You..."
The smile on Zhong Fengyue's face faded. Suddenly, he drew out the Heavenly Gift Sword and pointed it at her neck, coldly saying, "You're not Xiaoliu."
Her almond eyes moved. She looked at Zhong Fengyue in surprise. Then the surprise faded, and the corner of her mouth curled up into a somewhat charming smile and said, "You've seen through me. You really deserve to be Xiaoliu's husband."
The sword was pointing at her throat. She just smiled quietly.
Zhong Fengyue looked at her. Under the white gauze hat, his diamond - shaped lips curved up and he said, "Who are you?"
Su Lou'er let out a soft laugh and looked at him quietly, saying, "You should call me elder sister."
Zhong Fengyue was slightly stunned. He smiled faintly and said, "So it's elder sister. I'm sorry for my rudeness." He retracted his hand and sheathed his sword.
Su Lou'er looked at Zhong Fengyue, walked to the sandalwood table beside, reached out to pick up the fire starter and lit the oil lamp on the table.
The light illuminated the room. A cold evening breeze blew in through the small window, making the candlelight flicker back and forth.
"The divine doctor is really out of luck with the Rebirth Fruit. After all that effort, he only managed to get a fake one." Su Lou'er looked at the candle lamp and let out a soft laugh.
His rosy diamond - shaped lips curved up. Zhong Fengyue looked at Su Lou'er and said, "It really is the Valley of Ten Thousand Withered Plants."
He had guessed right. The Bai family was in the Valley of Ten Thousand Withered Plants.
At the Pingshan Assembly, Chu Weixin had only gone for the Rebirth Fruit.
Under the white gauze hat, his ink - colored eyes stared at her quietly and said, "So, the person who wanted to snatch the fruit from Cang Luoyao last time was also the divine doctor?"
Su Lou'er turned around. On her face, which was similar to Su Xiaoliu's, there was a charming smile. The moonlight was flowing, and the withered trees were quiet. She said softly, "Yes, it was him."
In the brightly lit main hall.
A man in a crow - colored long gown was sitting quietly on the throne. A pair of starry eyes were looking at the ground. His black hair was tied up with a golden crown. There was a green stubble on his chin. He propped his head with his hand, looking thoughtful.
A sound of footsteps came. A middle - aged man in a brown robe stopped not far from the leader. He lowered his head and said, "Leader, we've already found out the whereabouts of the Rebirth Fruit."
The leader raised his eyes, looked at Wang Chengyang not far away, concealed the weariness on his face, and asked, "Where?"
Wang Chengyang looked up at the leader. A trace of confident pride flashed in his eyes and he said, "The Valley of Ten Thousand Withered Plants."
The leader's fingers gently tapped on the armrest of the chair. He asked, "What about the Bai family?"
