The Princess' Rebirth and Revenge

They crossed through layers of forests and finally reached the top of the mountain. But what they saw stunned them: Xie Fei was the only one standing on the edge of the cliff, and Qiu Yu had disappeared.

"Xie Fei!" Haoyu shouted, rushed forward and hugged Xie Fei tightly in his arms. He felt her trembling and coldness, and endless anger and grief surged in his heart.

"Haoyu, I'm fine." Xie Fei's voice trembled slightly, but she still tried to stay calm, "Qiuyu...he jumped off the cliff."

Haoyu was stunned when he heard this, then he let go of Xie Fei and walked to the edge of the cliff to look down. He saw clouds and mist, and it was bottomless. He felt an inexplicable sense of loss and emptiness in his heart, as if he had lost something important.

But they knew that now was not the time to be sad. They had to return to the palace as soon as possible and strengthen the defense to prevent the forces behind Qiu Yu from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. At the same time, they also had to start investigating Qiu Yu's true identity and purpose, as well as the secret hidden in the "burnt tail" guqin.

The top of the empty mountain is surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland. However, in this beautiful scenery, a battle of wits is about to break out. Xie Fei fell ill due to catching a cold at the top of the mountain, and Qiu Yu had to temporarily put aside his plan and find medicine for her.

Qiu Yu sat by the simple fire, holding the medicine pot in his hand, concentrating on decocting the medicine. There was a subtle tenderness in his eyes, as if at this moment, he was no longer the cold-blooded hostage-taker, but an ordinary person who cared about his friend.

Xie Fei was lying on the bed, her face pale, but her eyes were unusually bright. She had been observing Qiu Yu, trying to find clues to escape from his words and deeds. She knew that although Qiu Yu looked cold on the surface, he was not completely ruthless in his heart. She had to take advantage of this and find a chance to escape.

"Qiuyu, why are you doing this?" Xie Fei finally couldn't help but ask. Although her voice was weak, it was full of determination.

Qiu Yu looked up at Xie Fei, with a complicated look in his eyes. He was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Xie Fei, there are some things you don't understand. Everything I do is for a greater goal."

"What goal?" Sheffi asked.

Qiu Yu shook her head, "I can't tell you. But I can guarantee that everything I do is for the future of this country."

Xie Fei was shocked when she heard this. She had never thought that Qiu Yu would have such a deep patriotic sentiment. But she knew that this could not be a reason for him to hold her hostage.

"Qiu Yu, no matter how great your goal is, it cannot be an excuse for you to hurt others." Xie Fei's voice was weak but full of power. "Let me go, and we can find a better solution together."

Qiu Yu smiled slightly, revealing a kind of helplessness and bitterness in that smile, "Xie Fei, you are too naive. This world is full of power and struggle, it is not as simple as you think. Sometimes, in order to achieve our goals, we must make some sacrifices."

Xie Fei shook his head. "I don't believe it. I believe that as long as we look for it with all our heart, there will always be a better solution. Qiuyu, let me go and we will go back together. I will do my best to help you achieve your goal."

Qiu Yu was silent for a moment, then slowly stood up and walked to Xie Fei's bedside. He stared into Xie Fei's eyes, as if to find the answer from them. Then, he sighed softly, "Xie Fei, you are too kind. This world is not suitable for you. But your proposal... I will consider it."

After saying that, he turned around and walked back to the fire to continue boiling the medicine. Xie Fei lay on the bed, her heart full of hope. She knew that she had touched Qiu Yu's heartstrings. As long as she continued to work hard, she would definitely find a chance to escape.

At the same time, Haoyu and Wei'an are gradually approaching Qiuyu's hiding place based on clues. They lead an elite force and shuttle through the mountains and forests. Their faces are full of determination and determination. They know that this battle is not only to rescue Xie Fei, but also to maintain the peace of the country.

"Haoyu, we are not far from Qiuyu's hiding place." Wei An whispered. His eyes revealed a calmness and composure, as if everything was under his control.

Haoyu nodded, "We must be careful. Qiuyu is a secretive person, we can't let him know."

Wei An smiled slightly, "Don't worry. I have arranged everything. As long as Qiu Yu dares to show up, we will be able to catch him in one fell swoop."

Haoyu felt relieved when he heard this. He knew Wei An's ability. As long as he was by his side, there was nothing to worry about. He looked up at the mountaintop in the distance, and a firm belief surged in his heart: no matter what, he had to save Xie Fei.

Finally, they came to Qiu Yu's hiding place. It was a simple wooden house hidden in the clouds. The wooden house was full of traps and mechanisms, obviously to prevent others from intruding.
