Empress' Conquest

"How's the taste?" Xu Bixuan's heart skipped a beat. Did he eat it? She had only cooked for him once, did he really remember the taste?!

"Ugh!" This taste is very good... "Very good …" Leng Ao Tian's thin lips pulled back a few times. He didn't dare to say what he was thinking because he didn't want to remind Bi Xuan of the unhappy things from the past!

"Of course! I cooked it myself! "Hmph." Xu Bixuan threw down these words, and with an inexplicable rage, she stood up and angrily left! She had already guessed what was going on, but she didn't say anything! Icily arrogant! You are so stupid! After leaving the study room, Xu Bixuan became angrier the more she thought about it. She turned around and walked towards Luo Jinye's greenhouse.

Inside the study room, Leng Ao Tian stood there in a daze. The hand holding the porcelain bowl trembled slightly. A look of astonishment and astonishment flashed through his eyes.

When he heard the words Xu Bixuan had said before she left, Leng Ao Tian felt as if his heart had been ruthlessly grasped by someone. His eyes were filled with disbelief; he had never even dared dream that something like this would actually happen in reality! Bi Xuan would actually cook for him! Bi Xuan! Bi Xuan!

Leng Ao Tian was stunned for a moment. His eyes turned to the bowl in his hands. With gratitude and joy in his heart, he started to eat. As if his life depended on it, he swept away all the food on the plate without leaving a single drop!

"Heartless Ridge!"

Yin YueRong stood at the edge of Heartless Ridge, looking at tens of thousands of plum blossoms, blooming in all directions. Some of the plum blossoms were as bright as the morning sun, some were as white as snow, and some were as green as jade.

That plum blossom bark was pitch-black, its branches were sinuous and rugged, its charm was filled with an unyielding manliness that had experienced many vicissitudes of life. The branches of the plum blossom were thin, clear, vivid in color, or as if they were dancing dragons, or as if they were sweeping through the world.

At this moment, a gentle breeze blew past. The petals fluttered in the wind, and the fragrance of flowers wafted in the air. It was as though one was immersed in a sea of flowers, and fragrance permeated his entire body!

"This is Heartless Ridge?" As Yin YueRui walked into the sea of flowers, all her tiredness seemed to have been swept away. Her bright eyes were looking at the sea of flowers with an unprecedented joy, and couldn't help but dance to the petals!

Xia Hou Mingxuan was watching the moon dancing gracefully in the sea of flowers. It was the most beautiful scene he had ever seen in his life! Her heart had fallen just like that. She would never be able to extricate herself from it. In this life, even if she died, she would still be willing to do so!

All of a sudden, Xia Hou Mingxuan leaped up, landing right beside Yin Yuerong. His thick hand wrapped around her waist, then he jumped up and landed right in front of her.

"There's someone here!" Xia Hou Ming Xuan's expression was solemn, and his hawk-like eyes flashed across the sea of flowers. At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared. Xia Hou Ming Xuan waved his left hand, and three rays of sharp light shot out! With a miserable scream, Xia Hou Ming flew in front of the dead body!

"This is!" Great Shu Military Robe?! " Yin Yuerong's heart tightened. She was no longer in the mood she had been in just now. It was not hard to guess that this man was most likely from the Iron-Justice Sect! What was even more terrifying was that this person had arrived at Heartless Ridge first!

When Yin Yuerong said this, Xia Hou Mingxuan's eyes immediately turned cold.

"Crap!" "Let's go!" Before Yin Yuerong could react, Xia Hou Mingxuan had already pulled Yin Yuerong's hand and quickly walked towards the depths of Merlin.

The deeper they went, the tighter Xia Hou Ming's grip became. It was as if he was in danger! It was obvious that Yang Fu already knew that there was only one person in this world that could deal with him, and that was Du Qian. Therefore, he had sent people to Heartless Ridge long before Xia Hou Xuan, hoping to harm Du Qian!

After walking for about half an incense stick of time, a stone gate suddenly appeared in the depths of the Merlin. As Yin Yuerong had expected, the stone gate had already opened! It seemed that someone had made it here with a single step!

"No matter what happens, you have to follow me closely. With me here, nothing will happen to you!" Xia Hou Ming stopped in his tracks, his eyes shining brightly!

Yin Yuerong didn't say anything but nodded vigorously. Xia Hou Mingxuan pursed his lips, pulling Yin Yuerong through the stone door! When she entered the 'Underworld' that was originally pitch-black, the lights suddenly lit up brightly. Yin Yuerong couldn't help but shiver in fright. Feeling the fear in Yin Yuerong's heart, Xia Hou Xuan tightened his grip on Yin Yuerong.

"Relax …" He didn't say anything else, just two words of relief, which had already made Yin YueRong relax a lot! Xia Hou Ming and Yin Yuerong slowly walked down a long and thin corridor and arrived at the main hall of Du Qian and the Underworld. The moment they turned the corner, Yin Yuerong suddenly exclaimed and threw herself into Xia Hou's arms!

"I'm fine!" Xia Hou Ming Xuan gently caressed Yin Yuerong's back as he consoled her with heartache. His eyes were as cold as ice as he looked at the many corpses littering the hall. His heart was slightly comforted; at least among these people, he didn't see his uncle!

It was only after Yin Yuerong had rested in Xia Hou's arms for a while that she realized that her actions had been too abrupt. She unconsciously took a few steps back!

"Them!" Yin Yuerong tried her best to calm the fear in her heart as she bravely entered the hall with Xia Hou Mingxuan.

"They are in cahoots with the man outside! However, from the looks of their deaths, it should be my uncle who did it! "But why didn't you see my uncle?" Xia Hou Mingxuan looked around, but didn't see any trace of him. He squatted down and touched the blood on the victim's wound, his eyes still as cold as ice!

Yin Yuerong looked at Xia Hou Mingxuan worriedly, "How about it?"

"They died less than an hour ago. I believe my uncle hasn't left yet!" "Not good." Xia Hou Ming pulled Yin Yuerong behind him and turned around to look at the entrance of the Underworld!

He saw more than twenty muscular men rushed in, each of them with nimble steps. They were just in time to face off against Xia Hou Ming Xuan!

"You are Du Qian?!" The leader's voice was loud and confident, the moment he heard, he knew he was from the martial arts world. When Xia Hou Ming Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised. If the people on the ground were sent by Yang Fu, then who were these men in black?

"That's right!" May I know the reason why you are looking for me? " Xia Hou Ming Xuan turned his head slightly …

"If a fight breaks out, stay right behind me. Don't leave!" Yin Yuerong nodded slightly, knowing that she would only distract Xia Hou Ming with her words. Therefore, when she agreed to Xia Hou's request, she couldn't help but look around and find a wooden board behind her, which would allow her to hide herself just fine! It was one thing if they couldn't help him, but they definitely couldn't drag him down any further!

"What is it? I want you to go west! Brothers! "Go!" At the command of the man in the lead, more than twenty men rushed up to him. Knowing that things were not going well, Xia Hou Xuan turned around to protect Yin Yuerong, only to see her nodding at him from behind the wooden board.

Seeing this, Xia Hou Xuan was naturally grateful. He knew that Yin Yuerong's actions increased her risk, but it also added to her own safety!

At this moment, the black clothed man's blade flashed. Xia Hou Ming's figure twisted and his hands moved up and down before grabbing onto the black clothed man's wrist. With a loud 'kacha', the black clothed man's arm was dislocated! At the same time, a gust of cold wind blew from behind Xia Hou Ming Xuan. Xia Hou Ming Xuan's attack was like a carp being struck, and the person coming up from behind was kicked into the wall!

In Xia Hou Ming Xuan's opinion, these people should be third-rate hunters in the martial arts world. Their martial arts were weak, but their moves were strange, and they often used extraordinary methods to win, but if they met a real master, these speculative movements were useless. After dozens of moves, there were only seven or eight black-clothed men left who had lost their color, and then looking at Xia Hou Ming Xuan, he was still calm and collected!

Just as the remaining black-clothed men were thinking about what to do, a man with a large saber suddenly entered the cave. He had a dark complexion, firm muscles, and a pair of bell-like eyes that flashed with a strange light. As he entered the underworld, Xia Hou Mingxuan felt a powerful aura radiating from his body!

"Nine Slashes – Luo Qi?!" Someone in the black clothed man suddenly exclaimed! With this said, Xia Hou Mingxuan couldn't help but be startled. He didn't expect that even the top bounty hunter would appear. This kind of person wasn't someone Yang Fu could afford! What kind of man had Uncle offended?

"You're Du Qian?" His deep voice sounded deep and restrained, but the words spoken were sufficient to say that this person's martial arts skills were not inferior to his!

"That's right!" I want to know, who actually sent you to kill me?! " Xia Hou Ming's cold eyes were like torches, and he was not afraid of the people in front of him at all!

"After you die, I will tell you who the owner is! "Receive my attack!" As Luo Qi spoke, he swung his broadsword towards Xia Hou Ming Xuan!

The tip of his sword pressed against the ground, and his entire body flew up into the air. When Luo Qi saw this, he swung his saber back towards Xia Hou Mingxuan. The hostility on his blade was enough to make those black-clothed men retreat three steps!

After eight moves, Xia Hou Mingxuan was slightly out of breath, and Luo Qi's forehead was also covered in sweat. This was because in addition to their sword moves, they still competed with each other in terms of inner strength! Xia Hou Ming had to admit that this person's martial arts were slightly above his own! However, he couldn't lose. Yuerong was right behind him. He had promised her that as long as he was around, nothing would happen to him!

On the other side, Luo Qi's ghostly light flashed. This so-called Nine Severing Blade, in other words, had never exchanged more than nine moves with another person. But, he never thought that the person in front of him would be able to withstand eight of his moves. Thinking of this, Luo Qi suddenly raised his saber and cut towards Xia Hou Ming Xuan. Seeing this, Xia Hou Ming was ready to meet him with his sword!

However, in this critical moment, Luo Qi's huge blade suddenly changed. Countless needles shot out from the blade, and Xia Hou never would have thought that there would be a hidden weapon in the blade. If he dodged it now, there was only one result, and that was that these needles could pierce through the wooden board and injure Yin Yuerong!

Can't hide! For Yin Yuerong, Xia Hou Mingxuan clenched his teeth, waving his long sword to resist the tens of thousands of silver needles …

With Xia Hou Ming Xuan's strength, he was more than enough to deal with this sudden change. However, he had to take into account Yin Yuerong's safety while blocking this needle. Therefore, when he swept away the needle with his sword qi, his sword shifted to one side, while his other side was exposed to the outside world!

"Ugh!" Xia Hou Mingxuan's body couldn't help but shiver. Something bad must have happened to his left shoulder! The second needle! The third needle! Even so, Xia Hou Ming still protected Yin Yuerong's side!

Behind the wooden board, Yin Yuerong was anxiously looking at Xia Hou Mingxuan. She suddenly noticed that his forehead was covered in sweat, and his left hand was even trembling a little! Crap! Yin Yuerong knew that Xia Hou had been hit by a concealed weapon, and thus, she was extremely anxious. No! Yin Yuerong's mind was blank. She couldn't let anything happen to Xia Hou and Mingxuan, but she could only think of one thing. Save Xia Hou and Mingxuan!

At this moment, Xia Hou Ming Xuan felt that his left hand was slightly numb and without strength. After a long time, he would no longer be able to withstand Luo Qi's attack!

"Yuerong, hurry and walk inside!" Xia Hou Ming's deep voice was slightly hoarse, and his eyes flashed with worry!

"General, don't worry. Yuerong will not leave you behind!" Life and death will be the same, and death will be the same! " If Xia Hou Xuan wanted him to leave, then that would mean that he had been severely injured, and that he would be able to protect her, or even lose his life! Yin Yuerong's eyes were determined. She took a deep breath, trying her best to calm down the fear in her heart. She held the handle of the wooden board tightly in one hand and kept searching for a weapon with the other.

Yin Yuerong frowned slightly. She felt that there was a sharp blade behind her, a double-edged blade. She knew it was the same blade she had seen in the military camp that day.

At that moment, Yin Yuerong suddenly shouted!

"General, get out of the way!" In the next second, the double-edged blade flew out! Although Xia Hou Ming didn't know what was going on, he still lowered his head when he heard Yin Yuerong's voice. However, her sword still danced like a halo of light, blocking the concealed weapon!

The sharp blades rotated in the air and moved as fast as lightning. When they reached the wall, sparks flew and they all rushed towards the hall at an extremely fast speed. When everyone saw this, they panicked and fled.
