Song Jiong drove the carriage forward quickly. He looked back and couldn't help but say in a low voice, "You shouldn't have left with the Cabinet Master like this."
"Are you trying to teach me a lesson?" Teng Ye, who was immersed in grief, had red eyes. He didn't like everyone now. Song Jiong had tried to persuade him more than ten times along the way and he was tired of it. "If you want to go back and find Lu Yaoyao, I won't stop you."
"If the Cabinet Master wakes up, he will definitely be unhappy." Song Jiong pursed his lips. He still couldn't believe that the Cabinet Master had passed away like this. He still felt that the Cabinet Master would definitely wake up.
Teng Ye looked down at the pale Murong Ke. "If he can wake up, I can even kneel to Lu Yaoyao."
Song Jiong said, "The Cabinet Master wants us to protect the Empress and leave Xiliang. She is still in that house now. If anything happens to her, the Cabinet Master will be very angry."
"Isn't that perfect? Let her accompany the Cabinet Master." Teng Ye sneered.
Hearing Teng Ye's words, Song Jiong sighed in his heart. Even if he continued to persuade him, Teng Ye wouldn't change his mind. He had long regarded the Empress as his enemy.
"By the way, didn't Qianxue go to find you?" Song Jiong suddenly remembered that Qianxue had disappeared for a few days. Why hadn't she come to find them yet?
Teng Ye frowned. "I still want to ask you, why isn't Qianxue with you? Did you drive her away because of Lu Yaoyao?"
Song Jiong said helplessly, "At that time, I brought the Empress to stay in that small house. Qianxue wanted to kill the Empress and I stopped her. She said she was going to save the Cabinet Master. I thought she went to find you."
"I didn't see her in the capital," Teng Ye said. "She should …"
No, Qianxue should know that they saved the Cabinet Master. Why didn't she come to find them?
Song Jiong suddenly stopped the carriage. "Qianxue has always wanted to kill the Empress. She must know that we were there. Now that we have left, she will definitely go to find the Empress. Teng Ye, we have to go back and save the Empress."
"If Qianxue can really kill Lu Yaoyao, I have to thank her for letting me go back and save Lu Yaoyao!" Teng Ye replied to Song Jiong with a contemptuous smile.
"Teng Ye!" Song Jiong shouted anxiously, "Qianxue will really kill Lu Yaoyao!"
Teng Ye harrumphed, "So be it. If Shen Yi can't protect his Empress, then they deserve to die."
"You!" Song Jiong threw down the rope in exasperation. "You're just taking revenge on Lu Yaoyao for your own selfish reasons. Pavilion Master's death was caused by Qi Ruoshui. You know very well that just because Pavilion Master likes her, you're pushing all the blame onto her."
"Song Jiong, you're amazing. You even know how to teach me a lesson." Teng Ye coldly looked at Song Jiong, but because Song Jiong had seen through his thoughts, he became even more furious.
"I'm just speaking the truth. I know you treat the Pavilion Master as your brother. Don't you think I'm sad? Now that the Pavilion Master has already left, you can't even fulfill his final wish. What a waste of his trust in you," Song Jiong said.
Teng Ye's expression relaxed. He turned his head and snorted, "If it wasn't for Lu Yaoyao, he wouldn't have to suffer like this."
"You're really stubborn!" Song Jiong scolded.
"If you want to go back and save Lu Yaoyao, then go ahead. I won't go back," Teng Ye said.
The two of them argued back and forth, not noticing that Murong Ke, who had been lying on the bed, had slightly moved his fingers.
Murong Ke felt that he was having a very, very long dream. The dream was too real, so he couldn't wake up.
He saw a different life. The people were still the same, but it seemed that there was something different in the dream. In the dream, he didn't see the person that he missed dearly. Even Mo Rongzhan seemed to have become somewhat different.
"Kill Lu Yaoyao."
"She deserves to die."
Who dared to lay their hands on Yaoyao? Murong Ke was startled awake from his dream. He tried his best to open his eyes, but his eyelids were so heavy that they felt like they weighed thousands of kilograms.
What was happening to him?
Murong Ke's mind was blank. For a moment, he couldn't remember why he had become like this. He wasn't … Murong Ke's brain was in pain. The dream and reality made him confused, and he couldn't tell what was happening to him.
It seemed like he had been captured.
Murong Ke slowly recalled what had happened before. He went to the priest hall to save Yaoyao, but was captured by Qi Ruoshui and sent to the dungeon.
That kind of heart-wrenching memory made Murong Ke's divine sense become clearer. He was rescued from the dungeon, and Yaoyao forced out the Gu worm for him. After that, he fainted and didn't know what had happened.
"Teng Ye, if something really happened to Lu Yaoyao, the Pavilion Master will not forgive you." Song Jiong shouted at Teng Ye.
"Lu Yaoyao's life or death has nothing to do with me. We have already done our best by rescuing her from the priest hall." Teng Ye said coldly.
What happened to Yaoyao? Murong Ke was startled. Could it be that she was in danger again?
Thinking of this, Murong Ke suddenly opened his eyes. He immediately saw the roof of the carriage and felt the swaying and bumping. He was on the carriage!
Teng Ye's back was facing Murong Ke, so he didn't notice that the person behind him had already sat up.
Song Jiong turned around and wanted to scold Teng Ye, but he suddenly saw Murong Ke who was half sitting up, scaring him so much that he almost rolled off the shaft of the carriage.
"Pavilion Master!" Song Jiong's eyes widened.
"Do you think that the Pavilion Master can still wake up to save Lu Yaoyao?" Teng Ye asked with a sneer.
Song Jiong shook his head, his voice trembling, "The Pavilion Master died with grievances and came back to settle the score with us."
Teng Ye snorted disdainfully, "Song Jiong, can you be any more childish?"
"I … I am speaking the truth. Look behind you." Song Jiong shouted.
"Enough!" Teng Ye's face turned cold, "Don't waste any more time for Lu Yaoyao."
Murong Ke placed his hand on his chest. He already didn't feel the heart-wrenching pain anymore. It was probably because the Gu worms had already been forced out. He looked at Teng Ye indifferently and asked in a low voice, "What happened to Yaoyao?"
Teng Ye originally wanted to reprimand Song Jiong, but suddenly heard Murong Ke's voice. His entire body froze, and he didn't even dare to turn around.
"Why are we here? Didn't I ask you to protect Yaoyao?" Murong Ke once again asked in a hoarse voice, "Where is Yaoyao?"
"You …" Teng Ye stiffly turned around and looked at Murong Ke speechlessly.
Song Jiong swallowed his saliva, "Pavilion Master, are you a human, or a ghost?"
Murong Ke's long and narrow eyes slightly raised, "Do you think I'm a human or a ghost?"
"It's broad daylight, I don't think you can be a ghost," Song Jiong said softly.
Teng Ye stared at Murong Ke in a daze. He recalled Lu Yaoyao saying that he would be fine after he woke up in three days. The corner of his eyes became moist, "You're finally awake!"
