Whether it's on the field or off, there is an eerie silence.They all truly witnessed Yun An'an's terrifying power.To kill hundreds of people is like playing a game, aren't they giving their heads away...[ ]

It is still Tianxiang Building.

Still the second-floor study.

It is still a table full of unchanged dishes.

He still has that look on his face like he's about to say something important, just get it out already.

Yun An'an rested her shoulders, with phoenix eyes looking at Han Qing in a cold and languid manner.

He disappeared for a while, this guy went mining, black as coal!

"I'm not here to see you. If there's nothing important, I won't waste my time."

After waiting for a while, Han Qing's appearance made everyone shiver. Yun Anan didn't waste any time and got up to leave.

"Hi there."

As the cloud peacefully got up, Han Qing grabbed her sleeve.

"Let go, and let others see that they will spread rumors again. This princess does not want to be misunderstood by the world because of General Han."

Let's take the incident of apprehending bandits at Yanyu Tower last time as an example. Rumors about their supposed intimate relationship have been circulating in the public for decades, with dozens of different versions.

It's fine if it's just ordinary, but they even came up with a reincarnation, flying ascension to immortality, and tribulation version. The storyteller at the teahouse told such a thrilling and heart-wrenching tale that she clapped her hands in applause.

"I haven't seen you in a while, you've lost weight."

"Don't be ridiculous, Your Highness. This princess is not acquainted with General Han. Please refrain from speaking such nonsensical and distasteful words."

"An An."

Seeing Yun An'an's attitude towards herself was still bad, Han Qing helplessly sighed and withdrew her hand.

"Lily's matter... how much do you know"

When looking at Yun Anan, Han Qing's eyes no longer held the previous disgust. At this moment, looking at the stunning woman in a white gown, there was only regret and a yearning for reminiscence in his eyes, as well as unwillingness hidden deep within their depths.

She is not an easy person to deal with.

Han Qing believes Yun An calmly noticed something.

But Li Ruolan hid too well, even he only managed to uncover the surface. But even these small details about Li Ruolan made his spine tingle with unease.

I never expected that an innocent-looking girl would be so wicked.

And then

Yun'an waited for Han Qing to finish his sentence.

"An An, I know you've been investigating the matter of the Ying Tian Academy. The information in this letter might be helpful to you."

Saying that, Han Qing took out a letter from her bosom.

Looking at the envelope lying across from the two of them, Yun An'an didn't reach for it. Her phoenix eyes narrowed as she looked towards Han Qing.

"What are the conditions"

"No conditions, consider it my compensation to you, AnAn..."

Hesitantly, Han Qing smiled wryly.

"I know this might be too late for you, but I still hope you can give me a chance to make amends, even a little bit."

More than once, Han Qing thought about time traveling back to the day he married Yun An'an.

If I had been able to see things clearly back then, I wouldn't have let Yun AnAn suffer any grievances, and I certainly wouldn't have pushed her into someone else's arms with my own hands.

"An An."

"Call me Princess Yi."

Yun An'an interrupted Han Qing's words and, without looking at it, threw the envelope to Qingfeng.

"If there is nothing else, this Princess will take her leave. Thank you, General Han, for your generous hospitality."

"Wait a moment."

Han Qing took a few steps forward and stopped Yun An'an in her tracks.

"I haven't finished yet, you will inevitably have to face Li Ruolan in the future, be extremely careful."

Han Qing had a lot more to say and do than just a letter. He had so many things he wanted to tell Yun An an about how difficult things had been for him lately.

"General Han."

Her voice was cold, her eyes were cold. When she looked at Han Qing, there was no trace of the emotion she once had for him in Yun Anan's eyes.

Everything had already ended with the original owner's death at the hands of Han Qing.

"You are General Han of the Beichen Nation, and I am the regent princess of the Beichen Nation. The two of us are no longer Han Qing and Yun An'an from before."

"This princess came to Tianxiang Building today also to tell General Han, from now on if there is anything, you may go to Yi Wangfu, so as not to create unnecessary trouble and anger my uncle."

"And..."

Having left half a sentence hanging, Yun An'an reached out and grabbed Han Qing's collar.

"Don't think that just because you have the Deathly Venom, this Queen can't get rid of you."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Yun An'an moved aside to prepare to leave Tiangxiang Tower.

Just then, whoosh whoosh whoosh! A dozen or so sounds rang out, and arrows flew from the darkness outside the window.

The crossbow bolt was extremely fast and coated with a deadly poison. Even the slightest touch would be unimaginable in its consequences.

Seeing the crossbow arrow about to pierce Yun An'an's body.

"My Lady, be careful!!"

Qingfeng's eyes widened, and he reached out to grab the crossbow bolt, but it was too fast after leaving the string.

Just a *poof* sound, as the crossbow arrow pierced Yun An'an, Han Qing took a step forward, using his body as a shield to protect Yun An'an's safety.

Tick-tock-tick-tock

Blood flowed along the arrow's trajectory, staining the ground. The crossbow bolt had almost pierced Han Qing's entire abdomen.

"An An, are you... alright"

Large mouthfuls of black blood gushed out incessantly. Han Qing supported himself on the doorframe, even though his mind was already being invaded by poison, his body still blocked the incoming crossbow arrows for Yun An'an.

Held in Han Qing's embrace, Yun Anan frowned, her heart a jumble of emotions. But the sudden intense pain that followed made her cry out in alarm!

"Qingfeng, fetch the Phoenix Orchid Fragrance!"

The

deadly poison activated, a wave of agonizing pain surged through my entire body. It felt as if countless snakes, insects, and rodents were gnawing at my very marrow.

At this very moment, a black-clad assassin burst into the room. His long sword gleamed menacingly in the light, aimed directly at Yun An'an as he charged towards her.

"Go pick up the medication, we'll take care of this here."

When the men in black burst into Tianxiang Building, the Qilin Guards finally arrived one by one.

Xinyuehu signaled Qingfeng to go to Fenglanxiang, leaving the rest to them.

"You… still know how to come."

In her hazy vision, Yun Anan looked at the seven Qilin Guards, her words filled with reproach.

To this, Xinyue Fox's answer was very simple.

"Who would have thought that you'd be down for the count while we were just having a meal."

People are iron, and rice is steel. They are not immortals and need to eat. They have also been guarding all the way and are tired.

Who knew that such a small amount of time spent eating would lead to trouble for Yun An'an.

"I have a question."

A Kirin Guard beside the Moon Fox asked a very philosophical question.

"If our target dies, what will Yuan Sinians' money be used for"

Even though she wasn't fully unconscious, Yun AnAn furrowed her brows and slowly extended a hand towards the man, raising her middle finger to express her displeasure.

She can still be salvaged, damn it! You're so eager for her to die, you'll get your pay docked!

Under the influence of the deadly poison, Yun An'an lost consciousness in a matter of moments.

When I woke up, it was already daytime on the second day.

The sweet taste in her mouth told Yun'an that she had taken the Phoenix Orchid fragrance, which allowed her to save her life.

Boom~!

In the study, Yun An'an, about to rise, felt her legs go weak and collapsed onto the floor.

"An'er."

Beichen Yi, who was just twisting a handkerchief to wipe Yun An'an's cheeks, suddenly turned around and hugged Yun An'an back onto the bed.

His deep eyes were abnormally bloodshot, and a thick metallic scent of blood emanated from North Star Yi's body.

"Stay still, lie down properly. Leave Han Qing's matter to the old king."

Beichen Yi knew that Yun An'an was worried about something.

From last night until now, Old Wang Ye has been tending to Han Qing, not stepping out of the room once. Though severely injured and near death, fortunately, after a night's effort, his life is out of danger.

"How do I get back"

Yun'an opened her mouth, but found she couldn't make a sound.

What's going on

"Don't be afraid, it's a side effect of the phoenix orchid incense. Once the medicine wears off, An'er will recover to normal."

One look told him what Yun An'an was worried about.

Beichen Yi patiently explained why she couldn't speak and why her whole body felt powerless.

How is Han Qing doing How did I get back yesterday

She had no recollection, but that wasn't the most important thing anyway.

But...

"Why do you smell so strongly of blood"

"A-er, there's no need to worry. Your husband was only disciplining some soon-to-be deceased individuals."

The hand, with bones that could be counted distinctly, gently caressed Yun An'an’s long hair. Bei Chen Yi held Yun An'an close to his chest, afraid that even a little more force would cause the person in his arms to vanish into thin air.

"An'er, it is because I have not taken good care of you."

Regret, so much regret.

When Bei Chen Yi saw Yun An An, her face pale and covered in blood, his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

"An'er."

Clutching Yun'an's hand unconsciously, Beichen Nation's formidable general, second only to the emperor, was truly terrified at this moment.

Even when facing life-or-death decisions on the battlefield, surrounded by tens of thousands of enemy soldiers, he had never felt such fear.

"An'er."

He kept calling out Yun An'an's name.

Held in his arms, Yun Anan truly felt the worry of her husband.

The jade bracelet rested on Beichen Yi's waist, its head lightly leaning against his shoulder.

“I'm fine, don't worry.”

Here, silence speaks louder than words.

Outside the door, Bai Shiqi and Qingfeng stopped their steps. Neither of them disturbed the silence.

Yesterday night, too many things happened in Kyoto.

That's a bit much to digest.

The assassin assassinated Yun An'an, and Han Qing was seriously injured while protecting Yun An'an.

The deadly poison takes effect, leaving the two in a life-or-death struggle.

Beichen Yi, with the strength of a single person, slaughtered a hundred assassins in black, shocking all members of the Qilin Guard.

Old King summoned the highest authority, ordering the most valuable elixir of life to be sent into Prince Yi's residence, inadvertently saving Han Qing's life.

At this time, inside the imperial palace walls, in the Yilan Garden.

Li Gonggong was attending to him from the side, and palace maids served up fragrant pastries.

Under the pavilion, Beichen Hanzhi held a black stone in his hand and placed it on the chessboard.

"Miss Luolan played a brilliant move."

Sitting opposite Beichen Han, Li Ruolan gently smiled and flicked her sleeve.

"Your Majesty praises, Raolan's move is quite ordinary, it only disrupts the plans of some people."

Li Ruolan's white stone fell, landing perfectly in the center of a black stone.

Beichen Han narrowed his phoenix eyes, a smirk playing on his lips as he placed another black stone.

"I remember when Ruolan said she would take Yun'an'an's life within ten days. Now, several months have passed, and Yun'an'an is still alive."

As the voice grew colder and the black piece landed on the board, the chilling tone was laced with an intensified murderous intent.

Li Ruolan stood up and knelt on the ground, she did not regret not having killed Yun An'an that day.

On the other hand—

"Your Majesty, please believe me once more. Yun An'an living is far more valuable than dying. Besides, Your Majesty also hopes that Yun An'an will live."

Li Ruolan, kneeling on the ground, smiled even more gently. Her beautiful eyes lifted slightly, looking at where the black chess piece landed, her jade hand holding a white chess piece and dropping it.

"Your Majesty's desires, Ruolan understands them well. When the time is ripe, Your Majesty will surely have your wish fulfilled."

"Oh~ Then I shall wait and see."eichen Han, Li Ruolan gently smiled and flicked her sleeve."Your Majesty praises, Raolan's move is quite ordinary, it only disrupts the plans of some people."Li Ruolan's white stone fell, landing per...
