The next day.

After Nan Xingchen had breakfast and changed his clothes, he took Gan Tang to Rong Mansion.

There were some things she had to ask in person.

The moment Rong Ke saw Nan Xingchen, he was horrified as if he had seen a ghost. This woman was clearly dead that day.

Can he actually come back to life? The Demon Lord is indeed powerful.

Nan Xingchen saw that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time, so she asked hurriedly: "Rong Ke, I have something to ask you."

Rong Ke smiled, but the light in his eyes was gone: "Nan Xingchen, you are really lucky."

Nan Xingchen asked curiously: "Did I die that day?"

Rong Ke smiled gently: "That day your soul was forcibly extracted and you were beaten severely, so you really died."

Nan Xingchen was silent for a moment and then asked, "Tell me in detail what happened that day."

Rong Ke hesitated for a moment, stared at her and said, "I can confirm that you were indeed dead that day. I carried you out of the cave and wanted to find a place with a beautiful view to bury you..."

At this point, Rong Ke paused. Nan Xingchen couldn't help but pursed his lips and glared at Rong Ke: "What happened next?"

Rong Ke looked at her innocently and continued, "Then a man in black robes appeared. His cultivation was unfathomable and his punch could cause mountains to collapse and the ground to crack. He wanted to use the Xuanyin Fire to kill all the creatures in the mountains. Then I realized that this man was the Demon Lord Sikong Wuyue."

Nan Xingchen pursed her red lips and asked, "What happened next?"

Rong Ke's lips trembled a little, and he stammered, "Later, he let me leave."

After hearing these words, Nan Xingchen felt as if she was struck by lightning, with huge waves in her heart. She was sure that it was Sikong Wu Yue who saved her, but why didn't he admit it and kept avoiding her?

……

After leaving Rong Mansion, Nan Xingchen took Gan Tang and wandered aimlessly on the street.

A luxurious carriage passed by, and Nan Xingchen grabbed Gan Tang's arm and quickly dodged to the side.

"Miss Xingchen, it's you!"

A pleasant voice came from the carriage, and Nan Xingchen looked up.

The car curtain was lifted, and a handsome man in a green robe with a smile on his face came into view.

Nan Xingchen was shocked: "Wen Ci? Why are you here?"

The pink-dressed woman beside Wen Ci shouted, "This is the only legitimate son of the alchemy family of Jiming Country in Dongzhou, and the most talented alchemist in the Yan family in recent years. You are so rude, girl. How can you call our master by his name?"

Wen Ci waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Shunhua, have you forgotten that day in the underground tomb? If it weren't for Miss Xingchen's rescue, we would have all died."

Shunhua recalled what happened that day and was shocked: "Was she with that big devil that day?"

Wen Ci reprimanded: "What big devil? That's the Lord Demon, don't talk nonsense."

Shunhua quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth.

Nan Xingchen glanced at him and said calmly, "I have something else to do, so I'll go ahead."

Wen Ci jumped off the carriage and said with a smile: "Miss Xingchen, to thank you for saving my life that day, there is a restaurant up ahead. I would like to invite you to have a simple meal. I hope you will do me the honor!"

Nan Xingchen said calmly: "I'm busy."

"Miss Xingchen, let's go!"

Under Wen Ci's enthusiastic invitation, Nan Xingchen had no choice but to follow him to Zuishalou.

Wen Ci's guards and maids, along with Gan Tang, were waiting at the entrance of Zuishan Tower.

Nan Xingchen and Wen Ci found a seat by the window on the first floor and sat down.

Wen Ci was very gentlemanly and asked Nan Xingchen to order the dishes. Nan Xingchen was already upset, so he just ordered a few dishes casually.

Wen Ci asked with a smile: "Miss Xingchen, was that man that day really your husband?"

Nan Xingchen glared at him and said calmly, "No."

"Not good, not good..."

When Wen Ci heard Nan Xingchen's rejection, he showed a look of surprise, and it seemed like he was gloating.

Nan Xingchen felt an inexplicable agitation in his heart and asked coldly, "What are you laughing at?"

Wen Ci suppressed his smile and waved his hand, "No, nothing."

"Second Prince, you're here." A voice suddenly came from the door.

Nan Xingchen turned his head and saw that it was really a narrow road for enemies to meet, it was actually that scumbag Chu Mohan.

Chu Mohan happened to see her, and just like Rong Ke, Chu Mohan was shocked when he saw Nan Xingchen, as if he had seen a ghost, with a look of astonishment on his face.

How could this bitch still be alive after her soul was extracted by the vajra?

This, this is impossible.

In order to make sure, Chu Mohan walked straight towards Nan Xingchen.

When Chu Mohan saw the woman's face clearly, he was shocked: "Nan Xingchen, is it really you? You are not dead yet?"

Nan Xingchen's face changed slightly, and she said in a cold voice: "Chu scumbag, even if you die, I will not die."

"You, what are you talking about?"

Chu Mohan was furious.

Wen Ci asked, "Who is this?"

Before Nan Xingchen could speak, Chu Mohan interrupted and said, "I'm her fiancé."

Nan Xingchen was shocked: "Fiancé? Chu Mohan, have some shame."

Wen Ci looked at the two of them suspiciously, and asked half-doubtingly, "Is he really your fiancé?"

Nan Xingchen rejected it: "No. I have already broken off the engagement with this scumbag."

She raised her eyes to look at Chu Mohan and said coldly: "Mr. Chu, don't you take advantage of your royal family to bully me at will?"

call out--

A tender green leaf flew out from Nan Xingchen's hand and cut across Chu Mohan's cheek like a blade.

Chu Mohan's cheek was scratched, and he screamed in panic: "How dare you plot against me."

When everyone looked over, they saw a stunning woman in a flaming red dress, leaning lazily on a chair, with her long black hair hanging down to her shoulders.

So beautiful that it’s breathtaking!

There was a burst of exclamations and uproar all around.

"Master, Master, come and take care of this monster." Chu Mohan turned his head and looked at the white-robed old man behind him and ordered.

Nan Xingchen glanced at him calmly and recognized that the old man in white robe in front of her was the one who had knocked her under the vajra dagger at that time.

This person's cultivation level is either that of a Spiritual Sect master or a Spiritual Emperor.

I wonder where this scumbag Chu Mohan invited this expert from?

The old man in white robe took a few steps forward, gathering spiritual power in his palms and preparing to attack Nan Xingchen.

Wen Ci, who was standing by, rushed to Nan Xingchen and protected her behind him: "Miss Xingchen, I'll protect you."

His words were quite manly.

Chu Mohan chuckled: "Nan Xingchen, you bitch are really restless. You hooked up with a pretty boy again?"

Nan Xingchen's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and he said lightly: "You scumbag, you have a rich imagination! Your brain is even more dirty and filthy."

"Don't try to quibble!"

Chu Mohan summoned a sharp sword, drew an arc in the air, and swung it straight towards the southern star.

"Ahhh-"

A shrill scream was heard, and Nan Xingchen glanced down, only to see a bloody man with a broken arm lying on the ground.

Wen Ci rolled on the ground holding his broken arm, blood flowing everywhere, it was shocking to see.

Nan Xingchen's eyes flashed, and the anger in his heart grew even stronger.

Even though Wen Ci was a bit overconfident, he was injured while trying to help her.

Nan Xingchen squatted down, held Wen Ci's head, let his mouth open, and fed a pill into his mouth.

"Xing, Xingchen, don't worry about me, run away quickly..."

Wen Ci's vision gradually blurred, and he tried his best to speak a word with great difficulty.
