Chapter 55
"Cough...cough cough, Yi, Yi Cen, you hurt me."

Tears welled up in the corners of Huai Mingshu's eyes, she just felt that the air was getting thinner, and it took all her strength to say a word.

Is he sad?
Still mad at her?
Just for a mortal?
Her vision also became a little blurred, but the despair of the man in front of her eyes seemed to be transmitted from his hand holding her neck.

Will she die here?
"What is your purpose in doing this?!"

The despair and anger welling up from the depths of Yi Cen's eyes almost swallowed his last sanity.

The Body of Flame Sun operates on its own.

The flame burned and purified the golden core, which was gradually blackened and stained with the energy of the fallen devil, so that he would not be overwhelmed by madness.

"I, I just want to be with you..."

Huai Mingshu only felt that her mind was getting more and more dizzy, and she raised her hand with difficulty to touch the person in front of her.

It's just that she hasn't touched Yi Cen yet.

But he suddenly let go of her, and dodged to avoid a spell that rushed towards him.

"Princess, are you okay?!"

Several subordinates who heard the movement outside the door rushed over quickly and protected Huai Mingshu behind them.

Waiting to see the bright red fingerprints on Huai Mingshu's neck, the eyes of the subordinates were also full of malice and resentment when they looked at Yi Cen.

"How dare you hurt the princess of Gu Kingdom?!"

The little princess that Emperor Gu cherishes.

What right does a barbaric mortal practitioner like him have to hurt her?
They were sent by Emperor Gu to protect Huai Mingshu.

All of them have the strength of loose immortals, and they can only enter the Nascent Soul Stage after they proclaim their cultivation bases.

Even if they profess their cultivation base, how can these young people want to defeat them in this realm?
That's delusional.

"Ahem, ahem...I'm fine."

Huai Mingshu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She propped herself up and sat up from the bed, stroking her neck with lingering fear.

The scene just now had a huge impact on her.

But seeing Yi Cen's alienated and indifferent eyes now, Huai Mingshu's heart tightened.

She didn't want him to look at her like that.

"I won't kill you until I get an answer."

Yi Cen looked at her, but his real emotions at the moment could not be seen in his expression.

Is it forgiveness?

But before the joy on Huai Mingshu's face appeared, he said again, "It's just Gu Guo──"

Having said that, Yi Cen paused.

His eyes wandered around among the three people who were protecting Huai Mingshu, as if he wanted to record their appearance and the medals made of special materials on their chests.

That's right, he was the one who caused Xian'er's death.

Yi Cen picked up his sword and smiled, "One day, I will pay a visit in person."

"You can't let this kid go!"

Seeing that Yi Cen was about to burn his body of flames and flee far away, the three Sanxians who were protecting Huai Mingshu looked at each other and made up their minds.

Let the genius disciple with special physique leave.

It is tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountain, which is absolutely impossible!

But they haven't waited for them to catch up.

Huai Mingshu who was behind them said in a daze, "Don't go, let him go."

"Princess, think twice, since you have committed evil, why don't you cut the weeds and get rid of the roots!"

One of them was in a hurry.

They were ordered to protect Huai Mingshu, and that was also because Lord Tianshi predicted that Huai Mingshu would meet her true destiny in this experience.

Her escape plan was nothing but the connivance of His Majesty Gu Di.

"I told you not to go, didn't you hear me?! I am a princess, you must obey my orders!"

Huai Mingshu roared with red eyes, and her nose was also sore.

Not long after, tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, and she sat helplessly on the bed and began to cry.

The subordinates looked at each other in blank dismay, but no one dared to disobey their orders.

Yi Cen was the first man who disobeyed her, and also the first man who saw her and treated her as a peer.

Obviously being so kind to her.

Even though he knew that this was a trick she directed and performed, he still came to save her time and time again without hesitation, which resulted in his own injuries.

But even so, he didn't complain at all.

During the time he was with her, it was the most free memory of Huai Mingshu.

No sibling intrigue.

There are no family members who cling to the powerful and pretend to be close.

She exchanged "distresses" time after time in exchange for Yi Cen's life-sacrificing rescue time and time again.

It is an indelible memory.

Perhaps subconsciously, Huai Mingshu has long regarded Yi Cen as her reliance.

"No, I don't want him to leave me!"

During this period of getting along, she could no longer tolerate Yi Cen not being by her side, and no one told her about this wonderful world.

Now that he's gone, she's going to find him!
