Chapter 135

“You… Do you want to kill me?” Seeing the dagger in Liqing’s hand, Xiahou Shan turned pale instantly and struggled to get up. But because she was too badly injured, she was unable to move.

Liqing sneered, “You’ve been stupid all your life. This time you’re finally smart.”

“Why do you want to kill me?” Xiahou Shan’s voice began to tremble slightly. The near-death fear strained her body to the extreme.

Hearing this, a bloodthirsty killing intent crossed Liqing’s eyes again. How dared Xiahou Shan ask her why? Xiahou Shan was so stupid!

“It’s because you deserve to die!” With the last word “die” full of bloodthirsty killing intent, Liqing stabbed her dagger into Xiahou Shan’s heart hard.

This woman dared to plant the Love Worm in Xuanyuan Mo’s body. Of course, she deserved to die.

Xiahou Shan covered her chest with her hand and had blood pouring out of her mouth. She looked at Liqing and said with difficulty, “You… you like… Xuanyuan Mo as well…”

She couldn’t think of any other reason than this one.

Hearing this, Liqing blinked her eyes. People said that one spoke kindly in the presence of death but didn’t say that one would get wise at the edge of death.

Xiahou Shan saw Liqing’s blink and sneered, “I… I guessed it right… Unfortunately… you will never get him… like me…”

Xiahou Shan died with a mocking smile. Was she laughing at herself or Liqing, who shared the same fate as her?

“Unfortunately… you will never get him… like me…”

“You will never get him…”

“You will never get him…”

No, she didn’t want to be like Xiahou Shan. She would get him. She must get him…

Liqing clenched her fists with a touch of firmness flashing across her eyes. No matter what the consequences, she would get him. Then she leaped and disappeared into the woods.

The woods were once again quiet, but it did not last long before another person appeared here. It was Lishang, Xuanyuan Mo’s secret guard.

Lishang walked to Xiahou Shan’s corpse to check and then he frowned.

It was Princess of Xuanwu. Why was she here? Shouldn’t she be in the imperial palace at this time?

Lishang squatted down to feel Xiahou Shan’s neck pulse and found she was dead. He looked down at her chest with a dagger stabbed in it. Here was her fatal wound.

Who exactly killed her? Judging from this wound, it should not be His Highness. With His Highness’s martial arts, he simply didn’t need a dagger to kill her but a palm.

A dagger? Could it be Crown Princess of Zhuque? It shouldn’t be like this! When he went out, Crown Princess of Zhuque was still in the Yonghe Palace, so she couldn’t have run here to kill Princess of Xuanwu before him.

“Forget it. Now it is not the time to care about that. I had better go after His Highness,” Lishang thought.

After walking out of the Yonghe Palace, Duanmu Xi didn’t see Xuanyuan Mo, who should have been waiting here. She began to panic.

“Snow…” She shouted anxiously.

“Crown Princess.”

“Your Highness.”

Seeing Duanmu Xi come out, Yu Ying, Yu Feng, Phoenix Five, and Long Yue showed up together.

“Where is Snow?” Duanmu Xi looked at them and asked anxiously.

“His Highness has left,” Yu Ying answered her. He didn’t recount in detail what happened and just told the result in brief.

Xuanyuan Mo had left. With a frown, Duanmu Xi looked up at the unfulled moon, and a trace of worry flashed across her eyes. Could it be that his transformation was ahead of schedule? It would be bad if that happened. Xuanyuan Mo had no self-protection ability after transformation.

“Why don’t you guys follow him?” Duanmu Xi looked at the four secret guards before her, with a hint of blame in her eyes.

“His Highness told us to protect you here,” Yu Ying answered again.

Long Yue listened and added at the side, “Your Highness, don’t worry. Lishang has gone after His Highness, so His Highness will be safe.”

Hearing this, Duanmu Xi’s frown softened slightly. Since Lishang went after Xuanyuan Mo, Xuanyuan Mo’s life should not be in danger. No matter what, she had to stay by his side.

“Qingfeng.”

With Duanmu Xi’s call, a huge cyan dragon suddenly appeared in front of the four secret guards.

They were all startled by the huge green dragon.

Qinglong… Qinglong Mythical Creature…

It was the legendary Qinglong Mythical Creature…

They saw the legendary Qinglong Mythical Creature…

Duanmu Xi leaped directly onto Qingfeng’s back. She looked at the rounding moon in the sky and said to Qingfeng, “We must find Snow before the full moon.”

Hearing this, Qingfeng nodded its head humanly and then whizzed out of sight.

In the Yonghe Palace, Zhou Manyun saw the cyan light flashing the sky and gave a surprised look on her charming face. It was the legendary Qinglong Mythical Creature. No wonder the old emperor of the Qinglong Empire granted Duanmu Xi the title of Crown Princess. It turned out that this girl contracted the guardian mythical creature of the Qinglong Empire.

A trace of evil flashed through Zhou Manyun’s black phoenix eyes. The more powerful and outstanding Duanmu Xi was, the more she had to stop Duanmu Xi from being with Xuanyuan Mo. How could that woman’s son be worthy of such a noble girl?

Qingfeng carried Duanmu Xi and flew over the woods.

“Mistress, there is His Highness’s smell in the woods.”

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Xi’s purple eyes lit up, “Fly to the ground and have a look.”

Then they went to the woods together.

When Duanmu Xi saw the familiar red figure lying on the ground, her eyes widened in surprise. It was Xiahou Shan. Why did she die here?

Glancing at the big tree split in half, Duanmu Xi furrowed slightly and looked at Qingfeng who had transformed into a man beside her, “Has Snow just been here?”

Qingfeng closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then he opened his eyes and looked at Duanmu Xi, “Yes, it smells like His Highness’s smell, but two other werewolves should have been here in addition to him.”

Duanmu Xi pondered with a frown. Two other werewolves? One was Lishang, who was the other one?

She glanced up at the rounding moon and tensed up. No matter who killed Xiahou Shan, it had nothing to do with her. The most important thing for her now was to look for Xuanyuan Mo.

“Let’s go quickly to find Snow.” The moon was almost full, Duanmu Xi must find Xuanyuan Mo as soon as possible.

Qingfeng transformed into a dragon once again and carried Duanmu Xi towards the direction where Xuanyuan Mo disappeared.

Xuanyuan Mo went to a cave with his childhood memory.

When he was a kid, he would come to the cave every time after being bullied by his brothers. He painted the portrait of his mother on the cave wall. In fact, he didn’t remember his mother’s appearance and just imagined her face according to the portrait painted by his father.

Xuanyuan Mo stroked the beautiful woman’s portrait on the stonewall and whispered, “Mother…”

His vision became blurred again. The beautiful woman’s portrait on the stonewall turned into another woman’s, “Xi…”

“Xi, where are you?”

Now Xuanyuan Mo’s mind was full of Duanmu Xi’s face. The more he missed her, the more uncontrollable the manic lust in his body pounced over him. The more he felt hot and unbearable, the more he missed Duanmu Xi. It seemed to have formed a vicious circle.

Waves of lust almost drowned Xuanyuan Mo.

“Ah…” He opened his arms and yelled to the sky. Instantly, his amber eyes turned scarlet.

“Who is there?” The sudden movement at the cave entrance alerted Xuanyuan Mo to speak out. His scarlet eyes were averted to the cave entrance but out of focus.

No one answered him. At this moment, Liqing was dumbfounded by Xuanyuan Mo’s scarlet eyes.

“Is it Xi?” Xuanyuan Mo didn’t receive a reply and couldn’t see it clearly, so he asked again.

His hoarse voice tinged with eagerness and suppressed lust.

“It’s me,” Liqing responded subconsciously.

“Xi!” Xuanyuan Mo ran directly to the cave entrance at full speed and embraced Liqing at the sound of it.

Liqing was overwhelmed by Xuanyuan Mo’s sudden passion and felt as if she was dreaming. She couldn’t remember how long she had been waiting for this day. In short, it had been a long time.

Liqing nestled in Xuanyuan Mo’s arms quietly and didn’t dare to move. She was afraid that this wonderful dream would end if she moved.

Unfortunately, a dream would be bound to end.

All of a sudden, Xuanyuan Mo pushed away Liqing and “looked” at her with his scarlet eyes, “You are not Xi. Who are you?”

Liqing was pushed to the ground, deep resentment flashed through her big charming eyes.

Why? Why must it be Duanmu Xi? Why couldn’t it be her? She had done so much for Xuanyuan Mo and even sold her soul for him. However, he still didn’t look at her. Perhaps he didn’t remember her at all.

“Unfortunately… you will never get him… like me…” Xiahou Shan’s taunting words came to Liqing’s mind once again.

Liqing’s exquisite face grew sinister. Since Xuanyuan Mo only wanted Duanmu Xi, she would pretend to be Duanmu Xi.

Liqing rose from the ground slowly and looked at his unfocused eyes. Then she deliberately imitated Duanmu Xi’s voice and intonation, “Snow, I am Xi, I am Xi…”

“Xi…” Hearing the voice of “Duanmu Xi”, Xuanyuan Mo retracted his murderous aura. But soon, he thought of something and tossed his head vigorously, “No, you are not Xi. Don’t try to cheat me…”

Duanmu Xi had a special smell, and this woman wasn’t her.

Hearing this, Liqing frowned and continued without giving up, “I’m not lying to you. I’m Xi! I’m here to remove your worm.”

Liqing said and took off her clothes.

“Remove my worm?” Hearing this, lust swept over Xuanyuan Mo again.

“Yes, if the worm isn’t removed, you will die.”

While speaking, Liqing had stripped naked and stood in front of Xuanyuan Mo.

“Come on. Let me help you remove the worm now.”

Liqing coaxed Xuanyuan Mo while beginning to undress him.

With Liqing’s movements, a peculiarly strong fragrance filled the entire cave. The fragrance kept stirring Xuanyuan Mo’s restless hotness.

Xuanyuan Mo’s face was flushed and the sweat on his forehead slid down his cheeks in big drops. He swallowed hard and felt his mouth dry.

Liqing was very fast. Soon after, Xuanyuan Mo had only underpants left.
