This was a foggy world, and it was impossible to see where it was. It was dark all around, just like the chaotic world at the beginning of the world. Suddenly, a figure appeared in this hazy world. From her appearance and figure, it should be a woman. Although he could only see a blurry outline, he could still make out the shape if he looked closely. This person was dressed in five-colored clothes and looked extremely beautiful. However, her eyes were blank. It was obvious that she did not know where she was or why she was here. Upon closer inspection, this person was the third princess of the celestial heavens, Zi Yan, who had fallen unconscious after the battle with the python spirit. She was also the current Princess Shuiyue of Ziyue Kingdom, the daughter of the Prime Minister, Zhang Zixun. But why was she here? She had to ask herself. Zhang Zixun walked around in a daze. Clouds and mist surrounded her, and she could not see the path ahead clearly. She lowered her head to look at herself and realized that she was dressed the same way she was in the Heavenly Court. She was wearing a five-colored fairy dress and a dazzling golden phoenix hairpin on her head.
"Why am I here? What was this place? Why did I become like this? Aren't I injured?" A bunch of questions popped up in Zhang Zixun's mind, but she couldn't figure out why. Suddenly, the scene in front of her changed. She saw herself in the Prime Minister's residence, watching her father, Zhang Heng, being strangled by a large hand. He struggled desperately, but everything was in vain. Zhang Zixun watched helplessly. She wanted to intervene but was shocked to find that she could not move no matter what. She was so anxious that her tears fell."Father." She shouted, and the scene changed again. This time, she was on top of a nameless mountain outside the capital. She was like an invisible person now, as if she could not do anything. Two streaks of light flashed across the sky, and she saw her other self confronting Li Baoxian, the python spirit. She suddenly understood something. It was as if she was in another space and what she saw was the scene she had experienced. The scene changed again. She saw a powerful sword light pressing down on her. She used all her magic power to resist, but it seemed that she was unable to do so. She saw herself being eroded by the demonic aura and flying backward. She crashed into a tree behind her, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell unconscious. She remembered that she had been injured by Consort Xian's Sword Qi during the battle and had fallen unconscious. But what about her now? Was he dead or was he still unconscious? Just as she was thinking about it, the scene suddenly changed again. This time, her heart almost jumped out of her chest. Because she saw that while she was unconscious, Consort Xian had walked towards her with a hideous expression, her pair of demonic claws slowly reaching for her neck. Seeing this scene, Zhang Zixun was so anxious that she stomped her feet, but there was nothing she could do. In the end, he shouted in desperation,"No!!!!”The scene changed. She seemed to be pulled by a suction force. In the next moment, she screamed and sat up abruptly. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in the middle of the palace. His forehead was covered in sweat, and his heartbeat had not slowed down. She subconsciously muttered,"Why am I here? How did I get back?"
"Miss, Miss, you're finally awake! You scared Xiaoju to death! Boohoo." Before Zhang Zixun could react, she was hugged by a petite body. She looked down and saw that it was the servant girl, Xiao Ju. She said with a tearful face,"Miss, you're finally awake! Did you know? You've been unconscious for three days! I thought you wouldn't wake up! Boohoo."
"This little girl is quite attentive.”Zhang Zixun was touched. She gently stroked Xiao Ju's back and comforted her,"Alright, alright, Xiao Ju. Aren't I fine now? Don't cry. If you cry, you won't be beautiful. I don't like you anymore.”She was joking on purpose. Hearing this, the little girl broke into a smile.""Miss, you're really making fun of Xiao Ju the moment you wake up! You don't even know how worried I am about you!”Zhang Zixun let go of Xiao Ju and let her face her. She had a lot of questions in her mind. How did he come back? Who saved her? Most importantly, how were her father, Zhang Heng, and mother, Shen Mengyi? "Little Ju, you said I was in a coma for three days?"”
"Yes, Miss, you were seriously injured when you came back. You were unconscious until now. Miss, what happened to you? How did you get injured?" Xiao Ju voiced out the questions she had for the past three days. Zhang Zixun was helpless. She was already having a headache. How could she be in the mood to answer these questions? "It's a long story, I'll tell you later." Where's Qing 'er? Let her in. I have something to ask her.”Zhang Zixun suddenly asked. Xiao Ju pouted and was a little unhappy."You only know how to look for Sister Qing `er! I took care of you for three days!"
"Xiao Ju, what's wrong?" Zhang Zixun asked when she saw her pouting.
"Oh, it's fine. Sister Qing 'er has gone to brew medicine for you. I'll go and get her.”With that, he left. Zhang Zixun lay on the bed weakly again. Her mind was like a paste, and it was a mess. It was also like a lump of hemp that needed to be sorted out one by one. After a while, Qing 'Er walked in with a bowl of medicine. Her face was filled with excitement."Miss, I heard from Xiao Ju that you're awake? That's great!" As she spoke, she was about to put it on the table beside the bed and let it cool down.
"Miss, you're finally awake. What happened to you? How did he get so badly injured? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have let you go! You were unconscious for three days!"
"Alright, Qing `er, didn't I wake up? Don't worry." Zhang Zixun consoled. Then, he looked around and confirmed that there was no one around. Then, he said seriously,"How did I come back? Who sent me back?" "Miss, don't you remember anything?" Qing 'Er pretended to be surprised. Just three nights ago, when Xiaoju and I were asleep, we saw a white light flash through the haze. When I came out, you were lying on the bed. When I went up to take a look, I was almost scared to death. At that time, you were barely breathing and there was almost no heartbeat. But I don't have any magic power to heal you. Just as I was at a loss for what to do, the Primordial Divine Artifact in your hand suddenly emitted a purple light curtain that surrounded you. I know that it is healing you, so I don't dare to let anyone in. Even the Fourth Prince and the Second Prince were rejected by me on the grounds that you are not feeling well and don't want to see them. However, when they heard that you were sick, they immediately ordered people to send a large number of precious medicinal herbs. They asked me to brew medicine for you every day. Thousand-year Lingzhi, Tianshan Snow Lotus. There was a whole bunch of stuff. However, while the divine artifact was healing you, I didn't dare to act rashly. It was only yesterday that it stopped the light curtain. Only then did I realize that you seemed to be much better. That's why I'm going to brew the medicine this time." As she spoke, Qing 'Er brought the medicine to Zhang Zixun. A strong medicinal smell immediately assaulted her senses. Zhang Zixun looked disgusted and turned her face away."Yes, I am. I don't want to drink it. What is this? It stinks!”
"Miss, Qing 'Er knows that you don't need to drink these mortal medicines, but your body is indeed very weak now. You have to recover as soon as possible! Be good, come, drink it!" Qing 'Er carefully scooped a little with a spoon and brought it to Zhang Zixun's mouth. She persuaded her to drink it as if she was coaxing a child. Although Zhang Zixun did not want to drink such a stinky thing, she remembered that Qing 'er had spent a lot of effort to brew it. She gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and drank it with a frown. A cold smile appeared on Qing 'Er's face. She snorted coldly in her heart,""Zhang Zixun, you're lucky that day! If Lady Xian Fei couldn't kill you, then let me do it myself. I secretly put a deadly poison in this bowl of medicine. I know that no matter what, you are still an immortal and ordinary poisons cannot do anything to you. However, this time, it is the world's most poisonous poison that Consort Xian specially prepared-Goose Falling Sand. This poison was colorless and odorless. After being poisoned, one would not feel anything at all at first. Slowly, one's limbs would become weak, and their magic power would disappear. Finally, their entire body would be paralyzed. It's just a little now. After you use it a few more times, you'll feel very good!”After drinking the medicine, Zhang Zixun put down the bowl in her hand and suddenly asked,"How is my father? Is he alright? And my mother?" Upon hearing this, Qing `er had a troubled look on her face. She sighed,"Sigh. The Prime Minister had not gone to court for several days. He heard from the people in the residence that he was sick. Madam was fine. Out of concern, the Emperor had already sent the Imperial Physician to treat the Prime Minister. The Imperial Physician reported that he was overly frightened and that he would be fine after a few days of rest. Miss, don't worry." Qing 'Er paused for a moment and suddenly revealed a worried and puzzled expression. She held Zhang Zixun's hand and said,"Miss, you and I are not outsiders. Tell me the truth. What did you do that night? Hurriedly? I heard from the eunuchs in the palace that when the imperial physician arrived at the Prime Minister's residence, he found that his room was extremely messy, as if a great battle had taken place. The servants were packing up. The Prime Minister and his wife were lying on the bed. They had been greatly frightened and had fallen into a coma. Miss, when you came back that day, you were also seriously injured. What happened?”Hearing this, Zhang Zixun sighed softly and slowly sat up. With Qing 'Er's help, she got off the bed with difficulty and walked to the round stool in front of the window to sit down. After which, she said in a deep voice,"Qing `er, I was right. Consort Xian was a giant python! That day, when I arrived home, I saw her with a changed appearance strangling my father's neck with a demonic claw. If I had been a step later, my father would not have just fainted. He would have died in the hands of this monster! In my anger, I forgot the consequences and fought with her. But my magic power was halved after all, and she attacked like a madman, which caused me to be seriously injured. I don't think she's any better.”Qing 'Er, who was standing behind Zhang Zixun, sneered."You're wrong. Right now, Consort Xian has almost recovered and is currently carrying out the next step of the plan!”
"Qing `er, Qing` er, what's wrong?”Zhang Zixun called out when she saw that she was in a daze.
"What? I'm fine. You said that Lady Xian Fei is a giant python? How is this possible?" Qing `er asked in astonishment.
"How is it impossible? Moreover, we seem to have underestimated her strength. From the looks of it, she might have cultivated for a thousand years. This could also explain why she was so eager to absorb the emperor's dragon energy, because she was just one step away from ascending to become an immortal.”Zhang Zixun said thoughtfully,""I don't think she'll give up just like that!”"Help me change my clothes. I want to go home and see my parents."”Zhang Zixun stood up, but she suddenly felt dizzy. If Qing 'er had not supported her, she might have fallen.
"Miss, look at you. You're still so weak. I think we should rest for a few more days.”Qing Er pretended to be worried. However, he sneered in his heart, It seems like the medicinal effects of the Goose Falling Sand are working.”Zhang Zixun composed herself and said weakly,"What's wrong with me? Why don't you have any strength?"
"Miss, you are too weak. Quick, lie on the bed and rest.”Qing 'Er helped her to the bed and covered her with the blanket. She said softly,""Miss, you should rest first. I'll go deal with the medicine bowl." Zhang Zixun nodded. Qing 'Er turned around and left. The moment she turned around, a cold smile appeared on her face. Zhang Zixun, who was lying on the bed, felt extremely weak at this moment. It was as if her body had been sucked dry by something. She had no strength at all. She couldn't help but secretly circulate her magic power, but she realized that the basic magic power in her body was exhausted. If she wanted to recover, it seemed to be blocked by an unknown aura, and she couldn't circulate it at all. "It seems that I'm really hurt too badly this time!" She smiled bitterly.”Then, she looked at the purple butterfly dream that had protected her life in times of danger. She was surprised to find that the purple color on it had faded a lot. Now, there was only a faint layer. He didn't expect it to be so serious this time. Even he was injured so badly! Zhang Zixun had no choice but to close her eyes. What she needed the most now was to rest and recover her strength and magic power as soon as possible. She had a premonition that Consort Xian would not let this matter go so easily! Therefore, she had to make preparations as soon as possible for the upcoming battle.
In the backyard of the Billow House, Qing 'Er stood alone in the pavilion. From time to time, he would let out a cold laugh. Suddenly, a blue light flashed across the horizon. Immediately after, a piece of paper appeared in Qing 'Er's hand. On it was written: "Think of a way to change the divine artifact in her hand and make her consume the Goose Falling Sand as soon as possible!”After reading it, Qing 'Er sneered and tore the note in her hand into pieces.
"Sister Qing `er, why are you here alone? Is Miss feeling better?" At this moment, Xiao Ju ran towards her with a smile. A fierce look flashed across Qing 'Er's face, but she still endured it. "Little Ju, you don't have to worry." Miss is fine now, but she still needs to rest.”
"Sigh. The young miss is really biased. She immediately came to find you as soon as she woke up. I've been worried about her for days!”Xiao Ju pouted.
"Aiyo, why do I smell so much jealousy? Who knocked over the vinegar jar?" The Green Girl looked at her mockingly and teased her on purpose.
"Sister Qing `er, don't laugh at me! I'll hit you!" As she spoke, Xiao Ju ran over to Qing 'Er and played around. The courtyard was filled with laughter. After a while, Qing 'Er finally couldn't stand Xiao Ju's crazy behavior and begged,""Alright, alright, spare me! I was wrong, okay?" Hearing this, Xiao Ju stopped and said,""Do you know how powerful I am now? Let's see if you still dare to laugh at me!"
"Alright, Xiao Ju, I won't play with you anymore. Miss's medicine is still in the kitchen, I want to go take a look.”
"Mhm, I understand. Sister Qing `er, you can go!”Xiao Ju smiled like a flower. Qing 'Er left, and Xiao Ju casually strolled in the courtyard. Suddenly, she walked to the stone table and looked down. Suddenly, she noticed some strange paper scraps on the ground. Out of curiosity, he squatted down and picked it up.""What is this?" Xiao Ju said to herself. However, when she saw the words on a piece of paper, her face turned pale. Perhaps it was God's will, or perhaps it was predestined, but the paper just so happened to have: "Make her consume the Goose Falling Sand as soon as possible!" Xiao Ju's face was pale, and her hands trembled as she said,""Falling Goose Sand is the most poisonous thing in the world. Those who are poisoned by this poison cannot be saved! Even the immortals could not do anything about it!”This was something she had accidentally heard the imperial physician in the palace mention before.
"Whose is this? And who should take the poison of the Goose Falling Sand? He's actually so vicious!" She thought about it carefully,"Sister Qing 'er was the only one here, right?" Sister Qing `er? Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Xiao Ju was so scared that she fell to the ground. Her heart was filled with shock and disbelief for a long time. After an unknown period of time, Xiao Ju gradually calmed down. She collected all the paper scraps on the ground and quickly put them into her arms. She could not act rashly. After being in the palace for so many years, she had long learned to be cautious. Now that she had not figured out anything, she must not let anyone know.
"Dong dong dong." Just as Zhang Zixun was about to fall asleep, there was a knock on the door. "Come in," she said subconsciously.”
"Creak." The door opened and the Second Prince, Zhao Zecheng, appeared in the room. At this moment, Zhang Zixun was in a semi-conscious state. She could only feel a figure gradually walking towards her. Then, she suddenly felt a warm hand holding her hand. This hand was so warm! He suddenly opened his eyes and was shocked to see the person in front of him. He wanted to sit up, but he had no strength at all.
"Why are you here?" Zhang Zixun said weakly as she broke free from her grip. " Don't be agitated," the Second Prince hurriedly explained." I'm just here to see you. Nothing will happen to me!"”Zhang Zixun finally calmed down. The Second Prince suddenly looked troubled. After holding it in for a long time, he finally said,"It's me. I'll tell you now. You, how did you get sick! I won't allow you to get sick in the future, understand? I've never cared about someone so much in my life. In the past few days when you weren't around, I was so anxious that I looked everywhere for you, but I couldn't find you. At that time, I really didn't know what to do, you know?”Zhang Zixun found it funny." At that time, I blocked my aura and the entire mountain. If you could find me, you wouldn't be an ordinary person!" But what did he mean? Could it be…" Thinking of the last possibility, Zhang Zixun suddenly felt her head swell. Seriously, one wave had yet to calm down, and another wave had come. I'm really in trouble! Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly felt a pair of big hands grabbing her hand tightly. It turned out that the Second Prince was sitting beside him. He said excitedly,"Zixun, did you know? I like you! I really like you!" Zhang Zixun was slightly stunned. The next moment, she quickly withdrew her hand and pretended not to know."Hehe. I'm not sure. Are you kidding me? Why do you like me? We're just friends! Best friend!"
"No, I can't! I don't want it! I don't want to be friends with you. I want you to be my imperial concubine!”The Second Prince roared. Then, he hugged her tightly.
"Let go of me! Let go of me!" Zhang Zixun struggled with all her might, but she had no strength at the moment. She could only scream desperately. I hope someone will come and stop this crazy man!
