Not following the expected path? Reborn and unexpectedly married to a demon.

Jin Wuchen felt a sudden pang of panic and hurriedly looked at his amber ring finger.

Chu Luo is in great pain and her life is in danger.

Jin Wuchen quickly found Mengshan and asked anxiously, "Where is she? Is there still no news?"

Looking at Mengshan's expression.

Jin Wuchen pushed him away.

Mengshan had never seen his young master so angry and agitated.

"I'll go find it myself," Jin Wuchen said, getting up to leave.

Meng Shan stopped him, "Young Master, you can't leave now. If you leave, no one will be able to rescue so many people. I will do everything in my power to find the Young Madam. Even if you go now, you won't find her in time."

Jin Wuchen remained silent, his eyes fixed on the blood-red amber ring on his hand, until the object inside the ring moved, at which point he nodded.

He breathed a sigh of relief; Chu Luo had escaped another ordeal. He needed to hurry up and finish what he was doing.

When Chu Luo woke up again, she was warm all over, no longer feeling the biting cold of the north.

"Shu Tong!" Chu Luo looked at this unfamiliar place and felt uneasy. She called out twice, but no one answered her.

This was not the inn she stayed at before she fainted, and the room style was also very strange; she had never seen a place decorated with cow or sheep skulls before.

I opened the window, and there was a wide-open view outside. The house must be located at some high place, and looking down, there was a lush green landscape.

This sight made Chu Luo wonder if she was dreaming.

Chu Luo opened the door and went out. When she got to the front, she confirmed that she was indeed at a high place.

She continued walking and came to a tall building.

Standing high up, she could see far, so she lifted her skirt and went up to see what kind of place this was.

But the scene before her took her by surprise; it was completely different from what she had seen when she opened the window earlier.

Before my eyes, yellow sand filled the sky, not a blade of grass grew, a scene like a vast desert.

Chu Luo was incredulous and ran back to her room to open the window, only to find it still lush and green.

What kind of place could be like this, Shu Tong?

Chu Luo ran outside to look for someone, but the huge place, which resembled a small palace, was deserted.

She ran around in all directions but couldn't find a way out of the place.

Only by going outside can she find out where Shu Tong is.

Shu Tong had been channeling his internal energy into her before she fell unconscious. If she were to run out of energy and encounter some villains, it would be very dangerous.

Chu Luo climbed up the high building again to investigate, trying to see the layout of the place clearly.

"What are you looking at?" Shu Tong asked as she walked over, showing no sign of injury.

Her mask had been removed and was being held in her hand.

Chu Luo wondered if it was just her imagination, but the scars on Shu Tong's face seemed to have faded a bit.

"Are you alright?" Chu Luo wanted to confirm again.

"I'm fine."

"Where is this? This doesn't look like Kangjintai. How did we get here?"

Chu Luo knew that Kang Jintai would not look like this at this time of year.

“You almost died, we’re here to treat your heart ailment,” Shu Tong said calmly.

"Shu Tong, thank you," Chu Luo said sincerely.

Shu Tong did not respond to her; she never said such things, nor did she like to hear them.

It was her own decision to let her live, not because Chu Luo would say those things to her.

"Has someone already treated me?"

Chu Luo didn't feel uncomfortable anywhere. Heart disease can't be cured, and she was content as long as she could buy more time.

"No, it's just to temporarily wake you up. We still need to go to several places where there are real treatments available."

Before coming to this place, she had already consulted many doctors along the way to see Chu Luo, but without exception, they were all helpless.

If it weren't for her horse's speed and timely arrival at this place, and the black witch doctor's feeding her a heart-protecting pill that was both poison and medicine, Chu Luo's situation would likely be unknown.

However, the black witch doctor said that he could revive a person, but only temporarily.

"Why is my heart condition flaring up so severely and frequently now?" Chu Luo muttered to herself. In her previous life, at this point in time, it wasn't nearly as bad.

Moreover, she had the opportunity to visit Wangchen Mountain in this life. Shu Tong taught her the Yang-Generating Technique, and Daoist Tianqing had already opened up her meridians.

"It's because we're closer to Kang Jintai that this happens," Shu Tong remembered clearly.

Chu Luo couldn't understand why she would get into trouble the closer she got to Kang Jintai.

What exactly is Kang Jintai?

Unable to go immediately, Chu Luo had no idea.

"Come on, let me show you around this place."

Chu Luo changed into the clothes that Shu Tong brought, which were quite different from the style of clothing in Jiangzhou, and the veil covered her face.

"Get on the horses," Shu Tong said, leading over two black horses.

Chu Luo looked at the horse. Although it was still strong and tall, it was clearly not the same two horses as before.

"Where are our horses?" Chu Luo asked.

"It's worn out."

"What? He ran away and got lost? Is he dead?" Chu Luo's voice trembled upon hearing this.

How much running would it take to wear down such a powerful horse?

If Chu Luo knew how far this place was from Kangjintai and Jiangzhou, she would understand why the horse could run out of steam.

Even the wings of an eagle here would probably be ruined from flying.

Moreover, Shu Tong had two horses running at top speed day and night without stopping.

Chu Luo knew that it was all for her sake, and felt extremely guilty.

Shu Tong, who had already mounted his horse, sighed upon seeing her condition and said, "She's not dead, she just needs to recuperate for a while."

Chu Luo looked up at Shu Tong and asked, "Are you telling the truth?"

"Yes, if you're really worried, I'll take you to see it later," Shu Tong couldn't help but give her a glimmer of hope.

Chu Luo's eyes lit up instantly, her smiling eyes curving like a crescent moon.

Shu Tong's lips involuntarily curled up in a smile.

Shu Tong led her into the desert, and soon they arrived at a city where foreigners gathered, and the market was very lively.

“We’ll be staying here a while longer, let’s buy some things,” Shu Tong said, handing her a bag of gold.

Chu Luo didn't know where she got the gold, but she didn't ask any further questions.

It wasn't until noon that Chu Luo finally learned what this place was from the shopkeepers.

Heiying Sand Capital, also known as the Sand Forest Ghost Realm.

Chu Luo was startled; how did she end up in this place?

This is a place that ordinary people wouldn't want to come to, and once you come, you can forget about leaving.

It's a place that devours people without spitting out the bones, a place where you never return.

This place is rarely mentioned outside the country because it does not belong to any country and is neither controlled nor governed.

People who can't kill won't survive here, because they're always at risk of being killed.

Similarly, this place is a natural killing ground; the nearby desert can swallow up thousands of troops in an instant.

The lush, evergreen forest next door is equally impressive.

Chu Luo suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, recalling the decoration made of human hand bones at the door, which was probably not fake.

The boss could tell she wasn't from around here just by looking at her scared.

"Young lady, this place is just a normal business during the day. Besides, the fierce gods of the Forest Demon Realm aren't here. They're elusive in the heart of the sand, deep within the forest, and can't be easily reached. There's no need to be so afraid."

Chu Luo suddenly became worried, wondering if Shu Tong knew that they had come to this place where strange and wicked people gathered.

Was it because she stumbled in by chance, desperately seeking medical help, or...?
