Four Seas Cloud Moon

At this moment, there was another loud bang, and a huge rock crashed towards them. Lu Xiaotian's eyes focused, and he used all his strength, unleashing the Qiankun Pomo technique, to blast a large hole in the stone wall.

Holding Zhang Hui in his arms, Lu Xiaotian leaped out of the cave. When they landed, they found themselves on Yangshan Mountain. Here, lush green trees, blooming flowers, waterfalls cascading down, and crystal-clear pools revealed a paradise on earth.

"Thank you for saving me." Zhang Hui said gratefully.

"No need to thank me, we are just helping each other." Lu Xiaotian replied with a smile.

The two escaped from this strange place together, and the sunlight shone on them, making them warm and comfortable.

Where is my grandpa?

Lu Xiaotian said, "It was your grandfather who opened this passage at the cost of his life, which allowed us to escape danger."

Oh.

When Zhang Hui absorbed the inheritance of the Heavenly Book, she had already received her grandfather's last words. She had never met her grandfather, so naturally her feelings were indifferent!

Lu Xiaotian looked at the crystal-clear pool before him and, without a word, jumped in, happily bathing. Afterward, he used branches to hang his clothes out to dry, then built a fire to grill fish. Meanwhile, Zhang Hui, somewhat hesitantly, entered the pool. Although a little embarrassed, she was, after all, a girl who loved cleanliness.

Lu Xiaotian carefully sensed the general direction, then led Zhang Hui out of the mountains. Along the way, they supported each other and overcame many difficulties and obstacles together. After a few days of getting along, the relationship between the two became increasingly harmonious, chatting and laughing, as if forgetting all the unpleasantness of the past.

Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but think of the last time he was trapped in Shuanglang Mountain. It was Liu Shishi who was trapped with him, but this time it was him and Zhang Hui. This coincidence made him feel extremely strange, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.

When they finally emerged from the mountains, Lu Xiaotian offered to take Zhang Hui back to the imperial court, but Zhang Hui refused. She firmly insisted on returning to the family to participate in the competition, believing it was not only a family rule but also her responsibility and mission as the family's successor. Faced with Zhang Hui's insistence, Lu Xiaotian sighed helplessly and could only respect her choice.

When they were about to leave, Lu Xiaotian took advantage of the night to find Ji Zeming and Feng Ziying. When they saw Lu Xiaotian, they were so excited that they couldn't speak. Then they talked about what had happened recently. The implementation of the reform was extremely difficult, and some princes, ministers and vassal kings obstructed it. Strangely enough, two of the four vassal kings were extremely opposed to it. The Zhang family had been watching and remained neutral, while the other vassal king was somewhat inclined towards the court. The court also sent people to negotiate with him many times, but unfortunately, they didn't even see him!

Lu Xiaotian briefly understood the situation and decided that it would be better for him not to show up for the time being. He wanted to let the incident continue to ferment and wait for those lurking underwater to come out and catch them all in one fell swoop!

Ji Zeming passed the news back to the court. Of course, only a few high-ranking officials knew about it. Ziying continued to guard the outskirts of Yinshan as before!

On the way back, there was one thing that Lu Xiaotian couldn't figure out. It was understandable that the vassal king Zhang family did not take sides, after all, they had no intention of becoming emperor. As for the other vassal king's preference for the court, that was a bit puzzling. Throughout history, there had never been an emperor who reduced the power of the vassal kings, but there were quite a few vassal kings who successfully rebelled and ascended to the throne.

Arriving at the camp, Zhang Hui was missing. Seeing the time was almost 9:00, Zhang Hui must have gotten up and not seen Lu Xiaotian, so she thought Lu Xiaotian had left on his own. So she set off on her own!

Zhang Hui walked along the road. This place was deep in Yangshan Mountain, rarely visited by people, and the area was overgrown with weeds. Fortunately, her mental strength was strong, and she was able to avoid the mysterious beasts through her mental detection. As she walked, she thought, "Damn Lu Xiaotian! We said we'd go back together, but he left first. Is he abandoning me? No, he's not abandoning me!"

She kept telling herself that Lu Xiaotian must have had some hardship in leaving, but she couldn't help but feel a little angry and frustrated. As she thought about it, she suddenly drew her sword and began to hack at the surrounding flowers, plants, and trees, venting her frustration. As time went on, her emotions grew more and more agitated, and her movements became faster and faster, as if she wanted to vent all her anger.

However, the more she did this, the more she felt her blood surge, becoming difficult to control. Unconsciously, Lu Xiaotian's image surfaced in her mind. His figure flashed over and over in her mind, leaving her feeling confused. Gradually, she noticed her body starting to feel strange: hot all over, weak limbs, and an intense itching.

Zhang Hui's face flushed, her breathing quickened, her heart racing. She realized something was wrong, but she couldn't control her body's reaction. She tried to calm down, but her inner restlessness made it difficult to concentrate. Finally, she stopped and sat on the ground, trying to adjust her mindset and breathing.

What on earth was going on? Zhang Hui was filled with doubts and fear. She involuntarily walked to a tree, leaned against the trunk, and closed her eyes, trying to calm herself down this way. However, the opposite happened. Every time she closed her eyes, Lu Xiaotian's figure would appear in her mind, lingering.

Zhang Hui felt incredibly troubled. She shook her head vigorously, hoping to clear her mind of these distracting thoughts. Finally, she slowly opened her eyes and was surprised to find Lu Xiaotian walking towards her with a smile. The moment she saw Lu Xiaotian, Zhang Hui's body couldn't control itself, and her heart was burning with the desire to throw herself into Lu Xiaotian's arms.

Zhang Hui didn't understand why she was reacting this way, but she tried to suppress her emotions, closing her eyes tightly and refusing to look at Lu Xiaotian. She softly asked, "Didn't you leave? Why are you back?" However, Lu Xiaotian didn't respond. Suspicion grew in Zhang Hui, realizing something was amiss. The man before her wasn't the real Lu Xiaotian.

Who are you and what have you done to me?

Awoo, awoo, such a smart human being, and so beautiful, it is rare to have such great mental power, and this is the first time I have seen it, awoo... He walked towards Zhang Hui while making strange noises!

This is a mysterious beast that has cultivated into a human being, the Blood Marten. It mainly cultivates by devouring its own kind, and it also loves human women. It collects the essence and blood of human women and refines it for its own use. This mysterious beast violates the rules of nature and is extremely evil. Its combat power is very weak, but its speed is surprisingly fast. It releases poisonous gas to poison its opponent. This poison is colorless and odorless and difficult to detect. Zhang Hui was poisoned unknowingly. It seems that this Blood Marten has been following Zhang Hui for some time!

Human aphrodisiacs are made from blood-skinned minks. Aphrodisiacs made from blood-skinned minks are dozens of times more potent than ordinary aphrodisiacs and are very powerful!
