The Seven Princesses' Journey Across Time

Seeing this, Zhao Yuzhen was secretly delighted and became even bolder. He raised his lips slightly, and then, taking advantage of the situation, he gently inserted his fingers between Mo Lvyi's slender fingers. With this movement, their palms slowly came together, and finally their fingers were tightly intertwined.

At that moment, they seemed to forget everything around them, the world becoming quiet and beautiful. A gentle breeze blew past, lifting strands of Mo Lvyi's hair, gently fluttering and adding a touch of charm to her. Zhao Yuzhen gazed lovingly at the woman before him, his eyes filled with tenderness and love.

Mo Luyi, as if sensing his affection, turned to look at him. The two of them smiled at each other, and in that moment, time seemed to have stood still for them. Where their eyes met, endless affection flowed between them, drawing their hearts ever closer. At that moment, the surrounding grass, trees, flowers, leaves, even the passing breeze, all seemed to silently witness the ever-increasing warmth of their beautiful relationship.

Mo Luyi suddenly remembered hearing a while ago that Wushuang City had a new mayor. So she turned to look at Zhao Yuzhen beside her and suggested, "How about we go to Wushuang City together for a tour? Let's see what this city, once known as the world's unrivaled, looks like now."

Zhao Yuzhen naturally responded to Mo Luyi's words. He nodded slightly, and then the two of them flashed and disappeared from the spot like ghosts, as if they had never appeared there before.

Meanwhile, Xiao Se, after careful consideration, finally decided to spend a large sum of money to ask Mo Luyi to come and help him heal his wounds. However, when he looked up at the sky, he found that it was already getting dark.

Thinking about the two people having fun in Xueyue City all day, and hearing that the atmosphere between them was getting closer and closer, he felt that it was too late and it might not be convenient to disturb them, so he decided to wait until tomorrow morning to look for them.

Thinking of this, Xiao Se went back to sleep with peace of mind.

The next morning, just as the sky was getting light, Xiao Se couldn't wait to go to the place where Mo Luyi and Zhao Yuzhen lived. He stood in front of the door, raised his hand and knocked gently. The "knock knock knock" sounded particularly crisp and loud in the quiet morning. However, he knocked for a long time, but there was still no response from the house.

Xiao Se couldn't help but frown, wondering to himself: It's so early in the morning, are they still awake? Or maybe they've gone out? Full of doubt, he waited for an incense stick of time, but it was still as quiet as before. He raised his hand and knocked on the door again, but there was still no response. Xiao Se had no choice but to turn around and leave, then walked straight towards where Sikong Changfeng was.

Upon meeting Sikong Changfeng, Xiao Se recounted the entire incident and inquired whether he knew where Mo Lvyi and Zhao Yuzhen had gone. Sikong Changfeng, bewildered, expressed ignorance. However, he quickly regained his composure and ordered his Spider Web subordinates to investigate. Not long after, Sikong Changfeng received news from the Spider Web—Mo Lvyi and Zhao Yuzhen had already left the city, heading towards Wushuang City.

Xiao Se frowned, lost in thought, wondering what his true intention was in going to Wushuang City. Sikong Changfeng, standing beside him, took in his expression and knew exactly what he was thinking.

Sikong Changfeng smiled faintly and speculated softly, "In my opinion, it's probably because Zhao Yuzhen hasn't left Wangcheng Mountain in years. Now that he's come down, he must want to experience the prosperity of the world. And Miss Mo, as... hmph, naturally has to accompany him on his travels. Think back to their time in Xueyue City. When did they ever have a day of leisure? They were either sightseeing, enjoying delicious food, or admiring the wonders."

After hearing this, Xiao Se couldn't help but recall the days they'd spent in Snow Moon City. Back then, Zhao Yuzhen and Mo Yi were as free as wandering clouds and wild cranes, wandering the streets all day, exploring every corner of the city. Thinking of this, Xiao Se slowly nodded, agreeing with Sikong Changfeng's speculation, muttering to himself, "That makes sense. I just don't know when they'll return..."

Upon hearing this, Sikong Changfeng patted Xiao Se's shoulder and said reassuringly, "Don't worry. Since they made an appointment with you, they will definitely keep their promise and return on time. Putting aside other things, as far as Wangcheng Mountain is concerned, if they can't even guarantee this basic integrity, how can they be worthy of the title of the number one Taoist?"

Xiao Se nodded slightly and replied, "Yeah, you're right." After that, he looked up into the distance, always feeling that he could never seize the opportunity well. If he had readily agreed when she asked for the first time, perhaps he would have been fine long ago...

At this moment, Zhao Yuzhen and Mo Luyi were walking on the road when they suddenly saw a group of people in front of them. Upon closer inspection, they found that it was the Mingkun Escort Agency, escorting a batch of goods slowly forward.

Zhao Yuzhen stared at the team, his eyes sharp as a hawk. He whispered to Mo Luyi beside him, "Luyi, look at these people. They are emitting a strong bloody aura. It doesn't sound like the aura of ordinary escort agency personnel at all. Instead, it's more like..."

Mo Luyi smiled slightly and said, "He looks more like a killer." There was a hint of happiness in her tone.

Zhao Yuzhen nodded slightly, agreeing with Mo Luyi's opinion: "Yes, that's true."

As the two were discussing this in low voices, they saw the group marching straight towards them. As they approached, the leader suddenly bowed deeply to Mo Luyi and said respectfully, "Greetings, benefactor!" The others behind them followed suit.

Mo Luyi waved her hand: "Get up, there's no need to do this, just focus on your own things."

They then stood up, and the man said to Mo Luyi: "Yes." Then he continued to escort the dart away.

Zhao Yuzhen looked at them with a puzzled look on his face, then asked, "Why do they call you benefactor?"

Mo Luyi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile as she explained, "As you can see, these people were originally killers in the Dark River. However, they have been striving to escape the endless darkness and want to live uprightly in the sunshine. So, I came up with a plan for them. Since they are so good at killing, wouldn't it be more appropriate for them to use this ability to protect others or important objects?"
