Flash and get close to the face.

Ji Xue's heart stopped suddenly, and the War King's handsome features, which were exquisitely crafted by nature, magnified before her eyes.

The narrow, icy eyes were tightly closed at this moment, and the long, thick black eyelashes almost poked Ji Xue's face, making her lean back to avoid them.

After soaking in the hot spring, the War King's face no longer looked so pale. He seemed to be practicing internal energy to heal his wounds. The vital energy lingering around him and the hot spring vapor produced layer upon layer of curling mist.

Although he's thinner, his muscular lines are still incredibly powerful and exciting. When his Qi is flowing, his skin becomes shrouded in moisture, a faint sheen flowing through it that makes one want to touch it.

At this moment, a drop of water slid down the War King's jaw and landed on his somewhat tempting collarbone.

Ji Xue felt the heat rising and her throat was slightly dry.

Her eyes unconsciously followed the drop of water as it rolled from one end of her collarbone to the other along the graceful bone lines.

It meanders down along the undulating chest and abdominal muscles.

Submerged in water.

Ji Xue's face began to feel hot, and she glanced down secretly, but couldn't see clearly.

Another glance.

The fog was so thick that I couldn't see clearly.

Can't even dream as you want?

Ji Xue poked Zhan Wang's chest muscle: "If you have the guts to not wear clothes, then stand up."

Hey, I actually hit it.

A little hard.

The War King suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze was as sharp as a knife, cold and cruel, and met Ji Xue's eyes.

Eyes facing each other.

The War King stood up quickly.

Ah ah ah ah ah!

Ji Xue, who always remained calm under great pressure and even under torture, screamed and covered her face and flew backwards.

He actually stood up!

rogue!

dong dong dong dong!

Ji Xue's heartbeat was like the beating of a war drum.

She has made it big. This dream is a little indescribable.

"Ji Xue!"

Behind him, the War King's call was sad and anxious.

Oops, got caught.

Ji Xue flew around and finally squatted down and hid in the dark corner of the hot spring pool.

At this time, the War King had already put on a robe and came ashore. He looked around with his narrow, icy eyes. The huge hot spring palace was empty except for him.

It was as if the pair of panicked eyes like a frightened deer just now were just an illusion.

"Ji Xue!"

Ji Xue's name came out of the War King's mouth again. Although it was only two short words, it was inexplicably heavy, revealing a deep sorrow.

"Ji Xue..."

The War King called out again and again, until his voice became inaudible.

Ji Xue touched her face and found it wet.

Why is she crying?

Blame him.

For the first time, Ji Xue realized that her name could sound so affectionate when pronounced over and over again by this person.

Ji Xue's heart felt like it was being pulled by someone and it hurt a little.

Could it be that the War King likes her?

As soon as this idea came up, Ji Xue suppressed it herself.

fake.

all fake.

This was just Ji Xue's dream, and nothing in it counted.

If the War King really called her name, he would definitely do so with gnashing teeth, wishing he could grind her into ashes.

How could the War King be thinking about her? This thought was too scary.

retreat!retreat!retreat!

"master."

Mo Chuyi's voice suddenly came from outside the hall, as if he was worried that something had happened to King Zhan.

"Nothing, let Tianyi, Dinger and the others wait in the study." The War King regained his composure and gave the order in a cold voice.

"Yes." Mo Chuyi responded and left.

Ji Xue didn't expect that her dream was so real, even Mo Chuyi appeared.

More than that.

The time passed so slowly in the dream. Ji Xue waited for King Zhan to put on his clothes one by one before following him out of the hot spring palace.

She wanted to change the scene, but she couldn't do it at all.

They could only follow the War King through the bluestone alley, across the martial arts field, and after many twists and turns, they finally arrived at the study where they held meetings.

Mo Chuyi and Bai Shiwu are both here.

There were also Tianyi and Dinger, who were mentioned by the War King but Ji Xue did not know.

"News came from the palace that the emperor did not go to any concubine's bedroom today and slept in the Yangxin Palace. But Prime Minister Zhuang was summoned to the palace and has not returned yet, so the lights in the Yangxin Palace are still on." Tianyi reported.

"After waking up, the princess went to the palace to meet the empress dowager. The empress dowager didn't ask anyone to serve her, so we don't know what they talked about. But in the end, the empress dowager broke a glass cup, and the two of them parted unhappily." Ding Er followed.

"The Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's mansion has hired several imperial physicians, and they've changed several. It's said that the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's son seems to be blind."

"..."

Ji Xue sat on the porch, dozing off sleepily.

Which good person dreams of watching the War King taking a bath and also dreams that they are discussing matters?

They reported the movements of various prefectures in the capital one by one, and the details were extremely true.

Even Ji Xue admired his ability to create dreams.

"Tianyi, go to Nanqing and contact the secret agent in Nanqing. Make sure you find Ji Xue's burial place."

The words of the War King suddenly entered Ji Xue's ears, and she woke up instantly.

Find her burial place?

"Yes." Tianyi responded.

"Ding Er, go to the Shangjing of Nanqing and find out whether the Nanqing Liudao Pavilion knows that Ji Xue is dead. Find a way to reveal this news to the four generals of the Liudao Pavilion."

"If something has happened to the four governors of the Six Paths Pavilion, then retreat and assist Fifteen in completing his mission."

"promise."

Liudao Pavilion?

Ji Xue looked at King Zhan in surprise. Could it be that he knew her relationship with Liudao Pavilion?

Otherwise, why would such an order be issued?

"Master, if my mission is also related to Ji Xue, then I'm sorry I can't obey you." Bai Shiwu knelt on one knee: "Master, please punish me."

He was willing to be punished rather than take any task related to Ji Xue.

The War King's face darkened, and ice and snow condensed in his narrow eyes. His gaze was like a thousand-pound weight pressing down on Bai Shiwu.

"Besides, the situation in the capital is very complicated right now. Fifteen is worried about the safety of the master and is willing to stay by his side." Bai Shiwu looked at the War King without avoiding or giving way.

"But this matter is related to the safety of Dongchu. It is difficult for anyone else to do it except you." King Zhan said coldly.

"Then Bai Shiwu is willing to take the blame, even if it means death!" Bai Shiwu clasped his fists and asked for orders.

"Fifteen, go to Nanqing and make friends with the Nanqing court. See if you can establish a relationship with the regent's subordinates and find out the movements of the clan leader—"

When mentioning Zong Kui, the War King's tone became heavier and he paused.

The air around became tense.

When this name comes to mind.

Ji Xue's expression suddenly froze, and her entire eyes were instantly swallowed by ink. Her dark eyes looked at the War King, looking particularly weird.

"If there's a chance, kill without mercy!"

These eight words were powerful, revealing deep hatred and disgust.

"Yes!" Bai Shiwu raised his head and accepted the order.

Kill without mercy?

Ji Xue chewed on these four words, her eyes dark and dark.

No one understands better than her what the three words "Regent" mean to Nanqing.

Even Ji Xue had to plan carefully if she wanted to kill that person, and make sure that there would be no mistakes before she could hit the target with one strike.

Could it be that the War King knew that the person who was truly behind the battle of Gu'an was Zong Kui?

And Zong Kui is also the person standing behind Ji Xue.

This is the person Ji Xue trusts so much that she can turn her back to him without any reservation.

After the Battle of Gu'an, she was dealt a fatal blow.
