Female lead: No, it's me again??

The woman kicked him hard, aiming straight for his heart. The boy's frail body couldn't withstand that force.

He immediately fell to the ground, and a mouthful of blood stained the ground red.

"Cough cough..."

Despite the pain in his chest, the boy not only did not resist, but instead knelt before the woman again, humbly pleading.

"Your Highness, this is just an ordinary fire-extinguishing grass! You don't need it... I beg you, please give it to me."

Mother, this fire-extinguishing herb is what saved my life!

Fire-extinguishing grass.

A second-grade spiritual herb, primarily used to dispel cold-related ailments.

My mother is frail, and this illness came on suddenly. If she doesn't take the fire-clearing herb in time, she won't make it through the night!

The woman's expression was already impatient.

"Back to you?"

"Are you kidding me? Rongrong is waiting for me to bring back the Fire-extinguishing Grass to decorate her nest. What use would it be to you?"

"It would be best if your wretched mother died."

What does it matter to her whether other people live or die?

Fun.

Upon hearing the other's reply, the boy looked up sharply, his gray eyes filled with disbelief. "Third Prince, is my mother's life less important than your pet?!"

"If you want to, you can go to the Empress! You can go to His Majesty! Why do you have to take this one from me!?"

"Yours? Do you have any proof?"

Su Xue's eyes gradually turned vicious. "Su Ze, what right do you, the child of a lowly servant, have to live?"

"To defile the royal bloodline!!"

Su Xue straightened up, turned around, and walked away without looking back.

As the person left, the boy felt a sudden pang of unease.

Do not!

No!

The fire-extinguishing grass must be kept!

The boy got up to give chase, but the guard behind the woman disgustedly drew his sword and slit his throat on the spot. "Where did this assassin come from?"

assassin?

The dazed boy opened his mouth, and a large amount of blood uncontrollably spilled out.

A hint of confusion appeared in the boy's gray eyes.

Sulize, you clearly have royal blood flowing through your veins, so why are these people able to label you an assassin just because of a single herb?

Is it because there is no mother clan?

The boy's frail body lay in the snow, the bright red replacing the pure white.

The wind was strong in his ears, his neck was cold, and the swirling snow seemed to be pulling his consciousness into chaos.

It hurts so much.

For the first time, he felt...

Death is so close to me.

It's only a few steps away, but it feels like we're thousands of miles apart.

It is the distance between ordinary people and cultivators, and even more so, the distance between life and death.

It turns out that in their eyes, ordinary people's lives are not lives, but trash that can be discarded at will.

It’s so cold!

The wind carried a faint message: it was his nominal elder sister, "Clean things up."

The sound didn't matter at all.

"Yes."

"Ah...."

The boy smiled sadly.

The laughter caused a tremor in his throat, and more blood flowed.

The more pain he felt, the louder the boy laughed. He looked up at the sky with such despair that a single tear fell silently. "Hahahaha...hahahaha..."

In the blink of an eye, the crystal-clear tears were stained with blood, like a withered rose, tragically beautiful.

His pale pupils gradually lost their life force. "Mother..."

Your unfilial son will go to the Yellow Springs to wait for you.

In the next life, I will repay your kindness in raising me.

In the freezing snow, the boy closed his eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, long enough that a thin layer of snow covered the boy, a voice finally rang out.

"How miserable."

On the palace wall, an ordinary purple bird perched.

In a dark underground cavern somewhere on the Fantasy Universe Continent.

Dozens of men in black robes stared in a daze at the woman in the blood pool, whose face was sealed by black agate and whose beauty was unparalleled!

"Hahahaha!"

"This is absolutely the most satisfying work of my life!"

The black-robed figures around the old man were all trembling with excitement. "It's been more than two years, and finally... finally it's been replicated! Hahahaha!"

"Master, we did it!!!"

At this moment, a slender woman in black robes appeared, her voice icy cold, "Bai Chuhan appeared in Xuejing Prefecture yesterday. Has what Master requested been prepared?"

The elderly man in black robes at the head of the group stretched out his withered hand.

"Your Excellency, please look!"

The woman's gaze drifted to the distance, her right fingertips clenching almost imperceptibly.

Her face looked much paler.

Like.

so similar!

It's as if that woman is still alive!

The woman's face darkened considerably. "Very well, this time, I will ensure Bai Chuhan dies a horrible death!!!"

........

Feng Siyue never expected that a crisis was about to strike her. At this moment, she had just returned to Moon Shadow Valley with He Chen.

peripheral.

"Master, concentrate."

He Chen nodded.

Before them lay a swampy area. Feng Siyue leaped and landed in an ordinary swamp on the left. She should have sunk in, but instead, she moved as if on flat ground. She started forward, turned left twelve times, and then flew backward nine times.

At this moment, many withered yellow leaves appeared in the sky. If it weren't for the formation, He Chen might have thought it was just an ordinary wind blowing leaves.

Feng Siyue stepped on a few leaves and headed right, disappearing into the suddenly appearing mist.

He Chen thought for a moment and then followed.

As soon as he emerged from the mist, he met a pair of brown eyes the size of lanterns.

The other person winked: Newbie!

He Chen: "......"

He was somewhat surprised. "This is... a Sky Lizard?"

The object of the giant eye was a black lizard with two brown dragon horns, which was lazily coiled in the forest, resembling a small, majestic mountain.

The Sky Lizard, a high-level sacred beast of the earth element, lives only in swamps with abundant moisture and little sunlight.

Moreover, it is a gregarious sacred beast; the presence of one here indicates that there are at least a dozen or so other celestial lizards in the surrounding area.

The lizard has a gentle personality and could even be described as socially awkward.

They hide at the slightest disturbance, possessing extremely strong defensive capabilities and thick skin.

Feng Siyue walked forward, saying, "Master has excellent eyesight."

After the Heavenly Lizard, He Chen encountered several sacred beasts rarely seen on the continent. Upon seeing him, they simply lay lazily on the ground basking in the sun, showing none of the ferocity described in legends.

With so many sacred beasts guarding the area, He Chen became somewhat curious about the Pilgrimage Sect that Bai Chuhan had mentioned.

It wasn't until he arrived at the core of Moonshadow Valley that the young man finally saw what the Pilgrimage Sect looked like.

Um.....

All I can say is that it is secluded, simple, and unpretentious.

A woman dressed in black stood quietly under an ancient tree by the lake, waiting.

Feng Siyue walked over and asked, "Did you find anything?"

Yan Nanfei shook his head.

no?

"Keep an eye on it."

"Yes."

He agreed, but Yan Nanfei's gaze was somewhat hesitant.

Feng Siyue glanced at her.

"what's up?"

Ling Mi jumped onto Yan Nanfei's shoulder, blinked her eyes, and explained cutely, "My lord, um... there's something I need to tell you."
