Peach Blossom Spring 1052

in half."Careful! This blood is strange!" He scooped me up in one arm."Ouch! This blood seems to bite!" I whispered, unable to contain my pain.He frowned and pulled open the palace doors to send me...This man, in such heavy rain, how could he tell the difference between the tears on my face and the raindrops

Can't you pretend you don't see my tears and snot

The lightning that ripped through the sky illuminated his face from beneath his cloak, half-light and half-shadow. I wanted to jump off Fu Zhu's back, but this was mid-air, my feet dangling over the river surface, unable to move an inch.

Mu Wanchen stood by Yinglong's side, its wings just now shielding me from the flying shards of broken wood.

Yinglong, also called Huanglong, is the concubine of Donghuang Taiyi.

The spirit of this goddess resided within Mu Wanchen, helping the Great Shaman King solve many difficult matters on several occasions. This time was no exception. Her physical form was immense, yet her eyes were surprisingly gentle.

The dragon head approached me, this physical form far grander than the white rainbow turning into a powerful serpent. Heaven and earth’s mists swirled around her, her back sharp, tail suspended in mid-air, and whiskers dancing in the wind.

Mu Wanchen extended a hand towards me, and Fu Zhu very cooperatively jumped to his side, allowing me to reach out and grab him.

His hands were large, just like his tall and imposing figure. His palms were warm, and his fingers were strong and powerful. It felt quite strange to be held by him.

In his palm, I feel my bones especially "small," always being held by his hands around my shoulders, pinching my waist, and gripping my wrists.

Even in that chaotic and sweet moment, hold onto my ankle.

I never thought that a simple "holding on" action could evoke so many emotions.

It feels awful.

It's not good.

Disquieting.

"How did you get here That woman told me you were kept in a safe place, why are you here" Mu Wanchen raised his hand and pulled me into his embrace.

The cloak wrapped around us, my face pressed against his chest. His breath and the beat of his heart made me want to cry.

"Why did something so big happen suddenly You still allow others to lock me up Aren't you afraid that others will abuse me"

"Well, my little princess, are you afraid that others will abuse you with this temper Besides, it's not someone else, it's your own family." He spoke in a deep voice, slowly letting out a sigh: "I didn't expect that your great-grandmother was the one who escaped from the Dharma gate four generations ago..."

“I don’t know anything about this either. I’ve hardly ever met Mrs. Xue in my life, who knows her background… She’s kept me in the dark for so long, and now she’s keeping me captive without letting me know what her plans are!” I said angrily.

I don't believe she suddenly developed maternal instincts. What kind of maternal instincts could a woman like that possibly have

"It's very dangerous here right now, you shouldn't be here." Mu Wanchen let out a low sigh.

"I shouldn't be here, then who should You're bustling around here, and as a princess you just run off to safety How am I supposed to say in front of your fans that I'm the princess after this Lacking confidence, how about that!" I hugged his waist tightly, secretly clenching his clothes, afraid he would suddenly disappear.

Mu Wanchen raised his hand and touched my face. I'm a mess right now, completely soaked through. He sighed, one hand holding me, the other supporting Yinglong's horn.

The Yinglong was already floating in the air, at this moment it soared into the sky, piercing through clouds and mist.

I was so scared my legs turned to jelly, I completely relied on Mu Wanchen supporting my waist and back so I wouldn't fall onto Yinglong's back.

Actually, Mu Wanchen held me very securely. His arms were long and strong, holding me tightly in his embrace.

This height is terrifying! If the great Yinglong just shakes its head, I'll fall into a bottomless chasm!

Before I was blown silly by the gale-force winds and torrential rain, Yinglong's physical form suddenly vanished.

Without any preparation, it suddenly transformed into millions of tiny sparks of light. Those lights quickly merged into Mu Wanchen's back. The moment I felt myself falling, Mu Wanchen had already hugged me in his arms. He opened a magical portal in mid-air.

In the blink of an eye, the wind and rain had left me. I smelled the fragrance of flowers and herbs; here, there seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary.

I've been here before, this is our first place.

This strange side of the world seemed to be unaffected by the earthquake.

Stars still shimmer above, and the lake still reflects the heavens.

But the starlight seemed much dimmer. Mu Wanchen took off his cloak and casually hung it on the drooping branches, then held me and walked towards the lake.

"What are you doing" I stared at him, puzzled.

"Wash up, you're covered in dust and still dripping wet. You'll catch a cold." He placed me by the lake and gently brushed my hair aside.

Even though his hair was dripping wet, he didn't mind and helped me take off my damp clothes.

"But the lake water is very cold," I protested.

"...I'll stay with you, it won't be cold."

It's not cold, of course it's not cold when you're clinging to me, I'm even a little hot.

I don't know what it was, but when I held him in the water, I felt like my body was heating up as if I was in a hot spring.

Even the water surface around me was shallowly rising with white mist, making me unable to tell if it was cold or hot.

"Wàn Chén, please don't drive me away. I can help you with your... at least let me watch over you, know where you are, so I can feel at ease." I couldn't help but beg him.

He was too silent, not showing any weakness. I'm afraid he wouldn't say much to me.

"The Dragon King came, seizing the chaos of collapsing earth and falling heavens. He used necromancy to slaughter many people. Now, fear grips the hearts of everyone here; it's spiraling out of control. I couldn't leave. Your mother appeared before me, claiming you were hidden in a secure magical formation. She suggested using the seal imprint to open the royal tomb...I don't understand her true intentions, so I refused."

I was taken aback. It turned out that Ms. Xue's goal was Wang Ling

"The Dragon King took advantage of this disaster to create chaos, and he slipped into the Dharma Gate while I was preoccupied—with so many casualties, all I could do was command my people to seek refuge..."

Mu Wanchen clasped my hands, speaking softly in my ear. I couldn't help but let out a contented sigh.

Outside, mountains and rivers overturned, with broken walls and ruins, a desolate scene. But I...

"Outside, mountains and rivers were overturned, with broken walls and ruins, a desolate scene. But as long as I held you, I felt that the world was at peace."

I listened to his voice, dumbfounded. How did it seem like the words in my heart were slowly being spoken out by his lips

This mysterious region remained eerily peaceful.

The wind whispered softly, and the trees swayed gently.

“I’m done washing. I don’t want to be clingy anymore, or your people will kill me for being too close! Let's go and see how we can rebuild our home…”

I pushed him away and turned to walk toward the shore.

The moment I left him, the lake water against my chest turned icy cold. I couldn't help but shiver.

He reached out and hugged me from behind, calling softly, "Xiao Luo'er—"oment. I was reciting the sacred texts of Taichi, how could a little lady appear…My brain, which had been in a state of confusion for days, suddenly had a flash of insight, as if a little boy had once...
