Cheng Jiaxuan watched from the side as the two kissed passionately. Her heart seemed to shatter into powder and scatter all over the ground. Her whole body was twisted and squeezed repeatedly. It was so painful that she almost fainted in the next moment. But she looked at the most heartbreaking scene in front of her and couldn't move her eyes away. Even if he was intimate with another woman, she could clearly see him. There was still some sweetness in her heart.
Ji Qian Nian had heard the older sisters talk about kissing before. They were all shy and said that it was really the most beautiful thing. Therefore, her young heart was secretly looking forward to it. But this first kiss couldn't find any affection. Her lips were being bitten so hard that it hurt. If he didn't stop, she was afraid that even blood would flow out. The other party almost regarded her as his most deep-seated enemy and wanted to torture her to death. Then her mouth suddenly felt cold and her throat was blocked. Only then did she feel some fear and quickly pushed him away.
Jiang Liechen raised his hand to wipe his lips and looked at her with a bit of ridicule. Ji Qian Nian felt regretful again. She was worried that she would make him angry, so she still acted coquettishly. She pushed out her hands and put them softly on his shoulders. She said softly, "There are people watching from the side. I'm not used to it."
Jiang Liechen disdainfully said, "What's there to not be used to?" Ji Qian Nian forced a smile and said in a sweet voice, "There's such a beautiful woman following you all the time. I don't feel at ease."
Jiang Liechen sneered, "Her? Can she be considered a beautiful woman? You're even jealous of that bitch. You'll only lower yourself. " Ji Qian Nian said, "I don't care if she's a bitch or not. I only know that she's also a woman. Even if she's a little girl now, she's still very coquettish. It's because I care too much about you that I'm jealous of you. Otherwise, even if eight or ten more women came, I'd let them go. "Jiang Liechen said," Since you don't want to see her, just drive her away. Weren't you the one who wanted her to stay? "
Ji Qian Nian said, "Then I regret it now, okay?" She looked at Cheng Jiaxuan and saw that her eyes were red with tears. Her heart was in extreme pain, but she could only grit her teeth and endure. Feeling pity for her, she said in her heart, "Don't blame me for saying this. Actually, you are still very innocent. Being with him will only cause you to keep getting hurt. It's better if you leave as soon as possible. There are many good men in this world. In short, I have no other choice. I can only love this enemy of mine for the rest of my life … "Her eyes turned, and she put on a seven percent complacent and three percent contemptuous expression. She smiled and said," If you don't leave now, when will you? Do you still want to stay and humiliate yourself? "
Cheng Jiaxuan didn't want to leave at all. Even if she was humiliating herself, she could still grit her teeth and bear it. After all, she had swallowed a vat of tears. However, if Jiang Liechen took the initiative to ask her to leave, she would be even more unwilling to disobey his orders. She would have to suffer again. She slowly turned around and moved out step by step with difficulty. Her expression was as cold as death, as if the whole world had died in front of her eyes.
Ji Qian Nian caressed Jiang Liechen's cheek. She still wanted to continue kissing him. This was also to tell him not to look at Cheng Jiaxuan again. No matter how much she sympathized with that little girl, she still felt a little jealous. When she passed the threshold, her thin and weak figure was cast by the setting sun. Jiang Liechen suddenly said, "Wait!" This sentence instantly changed the two women's expressions. Cheng Jiaxuan was overjoyed. She hurriedly turned around and ran in, waiting for him to say something to persuade her to stay. As long as he showed a little bit of concern for her, even if she was immediately smashed to pieces, it would be the happiest ending.
Ji Qian Nian put her hands on Jiang Liechen's shoulders and shook him like a spoiled child, saying, "What, you can't bear to?"
Jiang Liechen ignored her. He said expressionlessly, "Leave the Residual Shadow Sword."
The effect of this sentence was immediate. Laughter returned to Ji Qian Nian's face, but it completely sent Cheng Jiaxuan to hell. Her lips trembled slightly. Then her hands also trembled. This trembling slowly spread to her entire body. Her vision was filled with tears again. His figure became more and more blurred in the piercing pain in her eyes. He became more and more out of reach. She fiercely bit her lower lip to prevent herself from crying as soon as she opened her mouth. She asked with difficulty, "If … without the Residual Shadow Sword … when I return to the palace, how will I explain it to Noble Consort Yun?"
Jiang Liechen glanced at the ten overlapping slender fingers on his shoulders. The nails were smeared with impatiens flower juice. There was a faint fragrance. He smiled coldly and put his hand on Ji Qian Nian's back. He looked ahead with cold eyes and said, "I don't care how you explain it."
Cheng Jiaxuan's dead heart seemed to have recovered and shattered again. This time, it could not be put back together. He smiled bitterly and said, "Yes … it should be like this. I … I forgot." He held the Residual Shadow Sword with both hands. There was no place for a sword in the room. He could only lean the sword against the wall. The jewel on the hilt seemed to reflect seven colors.
Looking at this familiar sword, the silver-grey cold light, everything was very familiar. Although she had only used the Residual Shadow Sword for a short time, she had already regarded it as a part of her. When she thought about how she would never be able to hold the Afterimage Sword again, and how she would never be able to hold it in her hands again, and how she would never be able to fight alongside it again, she finally realized that what she loved most was the sword itself, and not because of her love for Jiang Liechen. However, it was too late now, and she felt a sharp pain of her liver and lungs being torn apart.
She also thought that her martial art skill was not good enough. The journey back to the capital was long. She did not know whether she would meet the enemy along the way. Even if there were a lot of bandits, it would be enough for her to explain herself. He really did not care about her life or death. Perhaps seeing her die in front of his eyes was just right. She was afraid that he would sneer at her again and say, 'Serves you right'.
Thinking about his heartlessness toward her, her tears rolled down like a string of beads. Only now did she understand why the people of the past said, 'Tears are like pearls from a broken string'. Her maiden heart was cut open and cruelly torn to shreds. She wished that she had never been born in this world, so she did not have to suffer that kind of suffering.
The image of herself returning to Noble Consort Yun's side flashed in her mind. No matter how she looked at it, the odds were against her. She would have to be like Luo Jin, who would have to live with her tail between her legs between two mortal enemies. Afterwards, she would have to steal the Duan Hun Lei and the Jueyin Qin, which were heavily guarded in the Palace. Not to mention that she would be committing a crime of rebellion, with Shen Shiyun's power, he could act first and report later. He could also pin some more serious crimes on her, so that the Emperor would believe that he had no choice but to punish her. Perhaps he would even praise her for being considerate of the greater good. She was not afraid of these obvious dangers, but after she succeeded, Jiang Liechen would still not give her the slightest bit of face. He always felt that this sacrifice was worthless.
Not only that, after returning to the Palace, she would often see Yifu and Xuan Shuang. She could not face either of these two people. If she had to live by their side and interact with them day and night, she would rather become a dead body lying on a stretcher and being carried back to the Palace. It would be enough if someone shed a few drops of tears by her ice-cold body. Anyway, when a person dies, everything will be nothing. There was no need to think about how to deal with repeated dangerous situations. But right now, other than returning to the Palace, there seemed to be no other way. So these awkward situations were bound to happen. How could she save herself?
Her mind was in a mess. She raised her hand and gently stroked the Residual Shadow Sword, thinking that only by touching the sword's ice-cold body would she be able to get rid of the big furnace in her body. Otherwise, she would not be able to hold on for long. Her whole body would almost be burned and melted. Then she heard Ji Qiannian's soft voice behind her, "I say, husband, in the future don't call me by my full name. It makes us seem strange and distant. Outsiders will see us as a joke for no reason."
Cheng Jiaxuan remembered that he was the outsider she was talking about. He only felt that it was ironic. He wanted to laugh coldly and say that he did not care at all, and then swagger away. At least he could leave a bit of dignity. But the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat. He could not make the least bit of sound. The saddest thing was that other people considered her and Jiang Liechen as outsiders. Although it was true, she insisted on not believing it. Even she could not deceive herself.
If she loved someone, she would express it frankly. She did not want to say anything that went against her true feelings. Even though Jiang Liechen had hurt her deeply, her heartfelt love had not diminished by the least bit. In fact, she cherished his charity more than anyone else. It was difficult for her to pretend to be free and easy.
Jiang Liechen replied, "En, wife, wife …" He hugged her tightly and pulled her into his arms. He caressed her all over her body, undressing her and undressing her, making the bell ring continuously. Ji Qiannian also responded passionately. Then the two of them kissed passionately again. It was as if they were showing off to her. All kinds of ear-piercing sounds were extremely ear-piercing.
Cheng Jiaxuan watched from the corner of his eyes. Finally, she could not stay any longer. She covered her face and ran out. She kept wiping her face with the back of her hand. Her eyes seemed to have opened up in an instant. Tears flowed madly. When she ran out of the Taoist temple, Jiang Liechen raised his gaze and cast a faint glance at her gradually shrinking back.

A few days ago, the Decent Faction had reached a deadlock over the matter of the antidote. In the end, it was Nangong Xue who decisively resolved the situation. She saw Lu Qian holding the medicinal pill in his palm and shaking it continuously. He did not have the slightest intention of taking it. She knew Lu Qian's character well. She guessed that he must have felt a sudden sense of fear, but could not bring himself to deny it. The crowd was already filled with complaints. Nangong Xue was irritated. She snatched the pill from his hand and said, "If you don't want to take it, then don't take it!" After she finished speaking, she placed her palm to her mouth and swallowed the pill without blinking. Then, she rolled her eyes at him in disdain.
Lu Qian's hand suddenly became empty. When he came back to his senses, he was so embarrassed that he wished he could find a hole to hide in. The mockery and curses of the crowd became a buzzing sound in his ears. He thought, "I can't let Xueer look down on me." Fortunately, the bottle of medicine was right next to him. He immediately poured out a pill and said, "What's so great about it?" He swallowed it with the intention of facing death calmly.
This moment felt longer than a few years. Immediately, Lu Qian felt a wave of heat in his stomach, but he did not feel any discomfort. A stream of qi rose up in his body and spread throughout his limbs and bones. It was as if his body was being remolded by this wave of heat. His' dan tian 'gradually filled up. He tried to circulate his qi, and sure enough, there were threads of internal energy gradually accumulating. At first, his internal energy was weak, but it was obvious that his internal energy was gradually recovering. He happily said, "This really is the antidote! It's the antidote! "
Nangong Xue had the same experience. She snorted and did not answer him. She directly snatched the bottle of medicine and handed it to Li Yijie, saying, "Martial Brother, quickly take it!"
Li Yijie had just seen Nangong Xue take the pill with his own eyes. He did not know whether it was poisonous or not, but because she moved too quickly, he was completely unable to stop her. Since then, he had been on tenterhooks, afraid that something would happen to his martial sister. He truly felt the fear of losing her. When he saw that the two of them were safe and sound, he felt as if a large rock had been lifted from his heart. He looked at Nangong Xue, who had just escaped from the gates of hell, with gratified eyes. He did not pay attention to what she said at all.
Nangong Xue angrily said, "Martial Brother, why are you still in a daze? Quickly take out the antidote and give it to everyone! If we delay for too long, we don't know what will happen. We can't afford to delay. "
Li Yijie seemed as if he had just woken up from a dream. He nodded repeatedly. He and Nangong Xue each took out a bottle of antidote and distributed it to everyone. After taking the antidote, everyone began to circulate their internal energy to regulate their breathing.
