Liu Ruyan stood up and walked to the window, looking at the moonlight outside, and said softly:

"Li Tian, ​​how long do you think this peaceful life will last?"

Li Tian walked behind her and gently put his arm around her waist, his tone full of reassuring strength:

"Don't worry, I'm here. No matter what happens, we can get through it together. If anyone dares to destroy this peace, I will never let him go!"

Liu Ruyan turned around and leaned into Li Tian's arms. The aloof empress also showed her dependence as a little woman:

"Well, I feel at ease with you here."

At this moment, Li Tian suddenly remembered something, his eyes lit up, and his face showed that mysterious look again:

"Ruyan, I'll take you somewhere."

Without waiting for Liu Ruyan to answer, Li Tian pulled her to cast a spell, and in the blink of an eye they arrived at a valley that looked like a paradise.

The valley was filled with colorful flowers in bloom, and the breeze was filled with the fragrance of flowers.

Liu Ruyan looked at the beautiful scenery in front of her in amazement, and a rare hint of surprise appeared on her cold face:

"Where is this? It's so beautiful."

Li Tian raised his head proudly, like a child asking for a reward:

"This is a place I discovered by accident. From now on, this will be our secret base. When you are unhappy, just hide here. No one will be able to find us!"

Liu Ruyan smiled and gently hit Li Tian, ​​her action full of intimacy:

"You are the only one who has many clever ideas."

The two strolled in the valley, sometimes stopping to admire the beautiful scenery and sometimes flirting.

Li Tian picked a flower and put it in Liu Ruyan's hair, and did not forget to tease:

"My Queen, you are even more beautiful now, just like a fairy descending from heaven. If the people of Da Chu saw you like this, they would be fascinated!"

Liu Ruyan blushed slightly and said angrily:

"It will make me happy."

But her eyes were full of the happiness of a little woman, and her cold temperament was replaced by tenderness at this moment.

Tired of playing, the two lay on the grass and looked at the starry sky.

Liu Ruyan said softly:

"Li Tian, ​​it would be great if it could always be like this."

Li Tian held Liu Ruyan's hand, his eyes firm:

"Yes, no matter what happens in the future, I will never let you suffer any injustice again. If anyone dares to touch you, I will make him pay a heavy price!"

Just as the two were immersed in this peaceful and beautiful atmosphere, a noisy sound suddenly came from outside the valley, breaking the silence.

Li Tian sat up suddenly and looked in the direction where the sound came from with vigilant eyes. The aura around him instantly became cold and sharp.

Liu Ruyan also frowned slightly, and the tenderness and affection just now disappeared, replaced by the majesty and coldness of an empress.

"Who is it? How dare you disturb our peace!"

Li Tian shouted angrily in a low voice, and the spiritual power in his body began to surge, ready to deal with possible threats at any time.

Liu Ruyan stood up, straightened her clothes, and a cold light flashed in her eyes:

"Go and have a look."

The two of them flashed and instantly appeared at the entrance of the valley.

I saw a group of mysterious people in black robes surrounding the valley.

The leader was tall and had a hideous mask on his face, so his features couldn't be seen clearly.

"Who are you? Why are you trespassing here?"

Li Tian stared at the group of uninvited guests with an eagle-like gaze.

The masked man let out a sinister laugh, and the sound echoed in the night sky:

“Hahahaha, Li Tian, ​​Liu Ruyan, today is the day you die! So what if you are the Queen of Great Chu? Today we will kill you here to prevent future troubles!”

Liu Ruyan snorted coldly, with unquestionable majesty in her voice:

"Just you? How dare you act so presumptuously in front of this emperor!"

After saying this, spiritual energy overflowed from Liu Ruyan's body, and a giant golden dragon appeared faintly behind her. The dragon's roar shook the surrounding air so much that it trembled.

Li Tian was not willing to be outdone. He formed seals with his hands and sharp sword energy gathered around him, emitting a bone-chilling chill.

"on!"

At the masked man's command, the group of men in black robes rushed forward like ghosts.

Li Tian and Liu Ruyan looked at each other, their eyes full of tacit understanding.

Then the two of them rushed into the enemy group like tigers and started a fierce fight.

Li Tian's sword energy crisscrossed, and each sword energy carried a sharp murderous intent. Wherever it went, the black-robed people fell to the ground one after another.

Liu Ruyan controlled a giant golden dragon, which spewed out raging flames and swallowed up the man in black robe.

However, this group of men in black robes seemed to be well prepared.

They cooperated well and continuously attacked Li Tian and Liu Ruyan.

For a time, the two sides fell into a stalemate.

Seeing that he could not defeat the enemy after a long attack, the masked man's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. He waved his hands and muttered something.

Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and a black lightning streaked across the night sky, striking towards Liu Ruyan and Li Tian.

Seeing this, Li Tian stood in front of Liu Ruyan without hesitation, forming a defensive magic circle with his hands, trying to block the lightning.

With a loud "boom", lightning hit the defensive magic circle.

The powerful impact caused Li Tian to retreat repeatedly, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

Liu Ruyan's heart tightened, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes:

"Li Tian!"

She quickly came to Li Tian and supported him, her eyes full of concern:

"How are you?"

Li Tian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, endured the pain, and forced out a smile:

"I'm fine, don't worry."

At this moment, the masked man took advantage of their distraction and suddenly attacked, and a black light shot towards Liu Ruyan.

Li Tian was shocked and without thinking too much, he stood in front of Liu Ruyan again.

The black light hit his shoulder, and blood instantly dyed his clothes red.

"Li Tian!"

Liu Ruyan's voice was tearful and her eyes were filled with anger and grief.

She gently put Li Tian on the ground, stood up, and her aura became even more fierce, like an enraged lioness.

"You damned bastards, how dare you hurt him! Today, I will make you pay with blood!"

Liu Ruyan's voice was icy cold and chilling.

She raised her hands high and muttered something, and the golden dragon appeared again, even bigger and more majestic than before.

The giant dragon roared and rushed towards the group of men in black robes, leaving chaos wherever it went.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the masked man wanted to escape, but Liu Ruyan would never give him the chance.

Liu Ruyan pointed her finger and a ray of golden light shot towards the masked man, nailing him to the ground.

"Tell me, who are you? Who ordered you to do this?"

Liu Ruyan walked up to the masked man and asked with cold eyes.

The masked man snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain:

"Do you think I will tell you? Even if I die today, I will not let you succeed!"

After saying that, the masked man suddenly exploded, and the powerful impact force pushed Liu Ruyan back several steps.

Liu Ruyan steadied herself and looked at the mess in front of her, feeling exhausted.

She turned back to Li Tian and gently picked him up, her eyes full of heartache:

"Li Tian, ​​you must hold on. I will take you back to heal your wounds."

After saying that, Liu Ruyan cast a spell and took Li Tian out of the valley.

At this moment, in a dark corner, a man in black was watching all this, with a sinister smile on his face...
