Water Reflects Peach Blossoms

Kunlun Xu is the small courtyard where Jiang Ruan lives.

After Donghua asked the fairies about Jiang Ruan's condition, he sat beside the bed and glanced at Jiang Ruan, who was lying on the bed and whose face was not as red as before.

The effect of the alcohol had almost worn off, but Jiang Ruan was still in a coma.

She seemed to have not slept so soundly for a long time, her brows relaxed and peaceful, unlike the alienation and anger she always showed when talking to him.

Her lips were naturally red, her cheeks were white and soft, and a strand of hair was stuck to the side of her face. Donghua suddenly felt his fingers itchy.

The slender and well-proportioned fingertips gently touched the soft black hair and gently brushed it back to the side of the ear.

Donghua withdrew his hand and looked at the fairy who walked in.

The fairy replied respectfully, "Emperor, the Supreme God Mo Yuan invites you."

Lamenting how quickly this gentle and relaxing time passed, Donghua stood up and walked out of the stone house.

He was also worried about Mo Yuan, and as the war was getting closer, he was even more worried about whether Mo Yuan could survive.

Everyone in Kunlun Xu has full confidence in Mo Yuan, even the Emperor of Heaven. However, the Emperor of Heaven does not care whether Mo Yuan will sacrifice himself or not. All he wants is victory in the war.

From the perspective of the Lord of Heaven, any price can be paid as long as victory is achieved. What is exactly troubling is that this is also what he and Mo Yuan think.

These ancient gods shoulder the responsibility not only of themselves but also of the entire world. When facing disasters, their own lives are the most important thing to put first.

Today, Kunlun Xu is revered by all the immortals. If Mo Yuan fails to survive this disaster, the current prosperity of Kunlun Xu will probably become a desolate place with no one paying attention to it.

As they walked out of the courtyard gate, Donghua suddenly said with an icy expression, "Who are you, a scoundrel, to dare to act so recklessly in front of me?"

As he spoke, Donghua made a hand gesture, and a green figure flew out from behind a tree outside the courtyard wall and fell in front of him.

"This is..." The fairy behind him was surprised for a moment when she saw the woman's face: "Miss Xuannv?"

Donghua's expression remained cold: "Xuan Nu?"

Not daring to look up, Xuannv stood up and saluted Donghua: "Xuannv greets Emperor Donghua."

"Xuan Nu came to Kunlun Xu to seek refuge with the Immortal Si Yin due to a family accident. She is now staying at Kunlun Xu for a while. I hope the Emperor will forgive me for my impoliteness just now."

"I never forgive you." Donghua didn't accept her excuses and spoke coldly and sharply: "Or is there something special about you that I can forgive you?"

"Xuan Nu dare not!" Xuan Nu was shocked and bowed again, her already bent waist even more.

Donghua asked her, "What are you doing here?"

Xuan Nu pursed her lips and mentally composed herself, "Xuan Nu admires the Emperor and Empress, and would like to come here to ask the Emperor and Empress to allow Xuan Nu to serve as a maid. I hope the Emperor will grant this."

She originally wanted to see Jiang Ruan, wanted to get in touch with Jiang Ruan, and let her ask to keep her by her side to serve her.

But no one expected that Jiang Ruan had never left the stone house since he moved into Kunlun Xu. The fairies could not find out anything by asking him indirectly.

She originally wanted her senior brother Diefeng to introduce her. First, the senior brother was a straightforward person and could not imagine her purpose. Second, the senior brother's other identity was the second prince of Xihai. Although he was not very noble, if he introduced her, the emperor and empress would not easily refuse and offend Xihai.

But when Diefeng heard that she wanted to ask to see Jiang Ruan, he immediately and seriously refused her, and no matter how much she begged, it was useless.

There was no other way, so for the sake of her own future, Xuannv decided to take the risk alone.

Unexpectedly, her luck was so bad. As soon as she arrived, she saw Emperor Donghua coming out of the courtyard. Fortunately, she was discovered...

Donghua glanced down at Xuannv with his cold eyes, "Do you think my Taichen Palace is short of fairies?"

Xuan Nu immediately knelt on the ground: "Xuan Nu dare not!"

"So you think you can serve better than the fairies in Taichen Palace?"

"Xuan Nu is terrified!"

"Xuan Nu just thinks that Xuan Nu comes from the lower realm and knows a lot of anecdotes and interesting things. Moreover, Xuan Nu has the experience of playing with Princess Bai Qian of Qingqiu. I believe she can make the emperor and empress smile."

Donghua, seeing through Xuannu's thoughts at a glance, said quietly, "I can see your sincerity, but Jiang Ruan doesn't need you to cheer her up. She's afraid of the cold, and if your fur can help keep her warm, it would be well worth your effort. What do you think?"

"Xuan Nu..." It was as if a knife was hanging over her head. She felt a chill all over her body, her mind was blank, and even her words were trembling: "I hope... the Emperor will spare my life..."

She only knew that there was a person named Donghua Emperor, and had not heard many rumors about him. She only knew that he had once pacified the four seas and fought in the eight wildernesses, which led to the peaceful life of all living beings in the four seas and eight wildernesses today.

Si Yin said that Emperor Donghua had a bad temper and that being torn to pieces would be the least of one's worries if one fell into his hands.

She felt that Si Yin was exaggerating, and she had met Lord Mo Yuan, who lived in the same period as Emperor Donghua, and had chatted with him for a few words. Although Lord Mo Yuan was a cold person, he was not that dangerous.

She thought that Emperor Donghua was at most the same as Lord Mo Yuan, and that if he looked down on her, he would just ignore her as if he didn't see her, and would not endanger her life!

Moreover, she is a woman. Any graceful god, let alone a god from ancient times, would not make things difficult for a woman, so as to avoid spreading unpleasant and disgraceful rumors.

But who knew that the emperor would start by peeling off her fox skin?!

Only then did she realize that Emperor Donghua had a handsome face but also a cruel heart that was ruthless and murderous.

Seeing that the warning had taken effect, Donghua retracted his gaze: "What are you still doing here?"

"Xuan Nu is leaving..."

The pressure from the Lord of Heaven and Earth dissipated in an instant, but the fear of being almost killed still lingered in her heart, even penetrating into her bones. Xuannv staggered to her feet and ran away.

Although she encountered a hard obstacle this time, it also deepened her thoughts.

She must have power. Only with a high position and great authority can she no longer be looked down upon, no longer have to kneel down to others, no longer have to marry someone she doesn't like, no longer have to deliberately please others, and no longer have to be in danger of her life.

And now there is another opportunity before her.

Glancing at Xuannv's panicked figure as she fled, Donghua ordered, "Don't let her come near here from now on."

The fairy behind him should be.

……

After finally finishing the greetings with Changshan and Diefeng, on the way back, Siming met Zheyan who had just arrived at Kunlun Xu and was walking towards Jiang Ruan's courtyard.

Siming bowed and said, "Little Immortal Siming greets Supreme God Zheyan."

"It's Siming." Zhe Yan said in a good mood: "Why are you here?"

"The Emperor sent this little immortal to look after Miss Jiang." Siming was curious: "Is Lord Zheyan going to look for Lord Mo Yuan?"

"No." Seeing through Siming's intentions, Zheyan put his hands behind his back and continued walking towards the courtyard: "I'm heading in the same direction as Siming."

Siming's smile froze on his face: "So, what a coincidence."

Surrounded by wolves! Your position is in jeopardy!
