Her tone changed from gentle to incomparably cold in the blink of an eye. Her beautiful face was still flushed red, but her eyes were as cold as a blade.
Mu Qingxiao was not used to it. He didn't expect two souls to share a body.
If Zixia was a straightforward and clingy little goblin, then Qingxia was an ice-cold snowy mountain, overflowing with cold air.
Seeing that she was lying in the arms of an unfamiliar man, her purple dress in a mess, and a strange feeling surged from her body, Qingxia's pupils shrank. She said sharply, "Who are you? What do you want?"
The corner of Mu Qingxiao's mouth twitched. He said helplessly, "I am … Zixia's husband."
"What!"
Qingxia's pupils shrank. She screamed and a strong killing intent surged from her body.
"Not even last night. Not only did that bitch cause me to be hunted down by the Heavenly Court, she even dared to casually find a man."
"I'll kill you and make that bitch regret it!"
In her anger, Qingxia left his arms and pulled out her purple sword. Without any hesitation, she slashed at Mu Qingxiao's neck.
Space twisted slightly. Mu Qingxiao's hand became a blade and his figure appeared behind Qingxia in the blink of an eye.
As his hand landed on the back of her neck, Qingxia's consciousness went black and her body fell to the ground. Mu Qingxiao's right hand grabbed her slender waist and gently held her in his arms.
Looking at her sleeping appearance, Mu Qingxiao thought back to the strong killing intent from before. He shook his head. He really missed her clingy appearance.
Seeing that there was no one around, Mu Qingxiao jumped up with her in his arms. He leaned against a thick branch of a huge tree and let her lie in a comfortable position in his arms.
The bright moonlight sprinkled down, the stars twinkled, and the river of stars was resplendent. It was a silent night in the forest.
… …
… …
Early in the morning, the Golden Crow rose from the east.
The warm sunlight shone down. The forest was filled with birds and flowers.
On a thick branch, Mu Qingxiao opened her starry eyes and looked at the peerless beauty in her arms. She lowered her head and kissed her gently on the forehead.
At this moment, her eyebrows trembled slightly. The beauty in her arms gradually opened her eyes. Their eyes met in midair. Looking at the gentleness in her starry eyes, endless sweetness filled her heart.
She tilted her head slightly and kissed his lips.
Under Mu Qingxiao's gentle kiss, Zi Xia's jade-like arms wrapped around his neck, and she responded in a tender voice.
After a long time, their lips parted.
He carefully savored the feeling just now. His starry eyes gently looked at Zi Xia, who was panting. He really wanted to continue what they had not finished last night.
However, the sun was high up in the sky, so it wasn't suitable for that. Suppressing the lust in her heart, Mu Qingxiao grinned, "Let's continue on our way."
"Hmm …"
Zi Xia's beautiful face was as red as the sun, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's. She quietly lay in his arms and smelled the fragrance of his body. Her heart was filled with sweetness. She had finally found the love that belonged to her.
After being intimate for a while, Zi Xia took out the silver hairpin. The donkey carried the two of them to the east.
Her body gently leaned in Mu Qingxiao's arms. Zi Xia curiously asked, "I felt that my sister came yesterday. Did you meet my sister?"
"You fell asleep last night. What you think about in the day, you dream about it at night. I didn't see your sister."
Zi Xia had no idea that she and Qingxia were one. Mu Qingxiao did not intend to tell her about this. Perhaps when the time was right, things would naturally fall into place.
"The sea area a hundred miles away seems to be the East Sea. According to the mark on the map, with our current speed, it will probably take us two years to reach the capital Chang 'an."
While speaking, Mu Qingxiao felt a headache coming on. The donkey seemed to have slowed down on purpose. According to their speed, the scenery along the way would probably make them sick.
"Zi Xia, we don't need a donkey to cross the sea."
Zi Xia pouted. She only wanted to wander the world with the person she loved. It would be best if they could be together forever. However, after hearing Mu Qingxiao's words, she could only listen obediently.
With a bang, the donkey turned into a hairpin. Zi Xia held onto Mu Qingxiao's arm. She was almost glued to his body.
Mu Qingxiao smiled helplessly and allowed her to hold his arm. The two of them rose into the air and turned into a beam of sword light, sweeping toward the east.
In an instant, the mountains and rivers receded.
In just a dozen breaths of time, the vast and boundless sea area was behind them. However, Mu Qingxiao did not stop. He flashed toward the east as fast as lightning, as if chasing the stars and the moon.
Not long after, the clouds parted, and a huge city appeared in their sight. Looking back from the city gate, the end of the city could not be seen. It exuded an ancient aura. It was like a prehistoric beast that crawled on the ground and swallowed the tide of people.
From high up in the sky, one could even see the Imperial City behind the city. It was a magnificent and dignified palace.
Chang 'an was the ancient name of Xi' an. It was the first capital in history to be called a 'capital', and it was also the contemporary capital.
Looking at the two flamboyant words above the city wall, Mu Qingxiao hugged Zi Xia and concealed their figures. In the blink of an eye, they landed on the official road outside the city. As soon as they landed on the ground, a burst of noise entered their ears.
"Wow, it's so lively here."
As she looked at the bustling and noisy Chang 'an, Zi Xia's eyes flashed and she smiled. She had never been so happy before.
"Let's enter the city."
"Mm."
Chang 'an was the most prosperous capital of the Great Tang. It was bustling with people and prosperous merchants. One could even see many golden-haired and blue-eyed Hu and Great Tang merchants. The Great Tang was currently at its height of prosperity.
Entering the huge city, there were shops and stalls everywhere, and people came and went like a tide.
For Zi Xia, who had just left the Heavenly Court not long ago, it was her first time coming to such a lively place. She was overwhelmed with emotions. Holding Mu Qingxiao's arm, her beautiful eyes looked left and right, sizing up the prosperous scene around her.
Not long after the two of them entered the city, they instantly attracted everyone's attention.
The man was extraordinarily handsome, and the woman was devastatingly beautiful. Almost all the men would take a few glances at Zi Xia, and they could not move their eyes away.
Of course, there were also women who looked at Mu Qingxiao affectionately, which immediately attracted a resentful gaze from Zi Xia.
In this era, although women were traditional, they were also very direct. If a woman from a rich family took a fancy to a handsome man on the street, it was not impossible for her to marry him immediately.
Of course, although it was a feast for the eyes, Mu Qingxiao and Zi Xia did not look like ordinary people in terms of appearance or dress. Even if people walked past them, they would take a detour, for fear of offending the rich and powerful.
Nearly four hours later, the sun was high up in the sky. The two of them had strolled through more than a dozen streets. Zi Xia completely disregarded the gold and silver jewelry. She stuck to Mu Qingxiao all the way, laughing and chattering non-stop. She was incomparably happy.
Mu Qingxiao had a headache and doted on this cheerful little oriole.
