Early in the morning, the warm sunlight shone through the window into the room. Dust danced in the light. Yan Lingji rubbed her eyes, looking a little tired and confused.
She slowly got up and realized that Wen Yuan had already woken up. She couldn't help but wonder if he was treating his illness outside again.
However, when he walked outside, he realized that there were no civilians like yesterday. Only Wen Yuan was standing there practicing his swordsmanship.
Ever since the battle with Mo Ya yesterday, Wen Yuan knew that he was lacking in combat experience and familiarity with martial arts.
Therefore, if he wanted to become stronger, he had to improve himself and use his martial arts well.
Fortunately, he was different from ordinary people. He already had the method of practicing the sword in his mind, so his practice was also progressing at a rapid pace. In less than an hour, he had already familiarized himself with some of the moves.
"You're awake?" Wen Yuan stopped practicing his sword and found Yan Lingji outside the house. He walked to her side and asked.
Ever since what happened last night, he felt that he and Yan Lingji had a tacit understanding.
However, he still needed time to settle down, so he could not be too hasty.
"Hmm, why are you so hardworking? Did you get beaten up yesterday and start to work hard?”Yan Lingji looked at Wen Yuan with a smile and blinked her eyes.
Hearing Yan Lingji's teasing, Wen Yuan also revealed an evil smile,""That's right. If I don't practice my martial arts well, how can I protect you?”
"Who needs your protection? I can protect myself.”Yan Lingji rolled her eyes.
"Alright, then I'll cook for you every day.”Wen Yuan was somewhat helpless. It seemed that Yan Lingji's stubborn temper would not change for the time being.
Hearing this, Yan Lingji immediately nodded in satisfaction,""Alright, I can have that. Then you can cook for me every day in the future.”
Seeing Yan Lingji's appearance, Wen Yuan couldn't help but feel helpless. Who was the maid? What a glutton, but he wanted to do the same.
Yan Lingji wanted him to stay by her side.
"Alright, go eat first. I still have things to do later. I'll look for you when I come back.”
Yesterday, he had asked Nongyu to steal the antidote from Bai Yifei's mansion.
However, things were different now. He was a little worried, so he wanted to take a look personally.
He did not have such a plan before, but now that he had obtained the Light-body Technique of Black Crow, he had the ability to protect himself. Even if he could not win against Bai Yifei, he could still run away. Therefore, he wanted to go and take a look so that he could take care of him.
He didn't want anything to happen to Nongyu.
"Okay, be careful. I'll wait for you to come back.”Yan Lingji nodded unexpectedly and gave Wen Yuan a gentle smile, which was the complete opposite of her cunning and clean appearance just now.
Seeing Yan Lingji's sudden expression, Wen Yuan was also a little surprised. However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Yan Lingji was just like him. She could joke around normally, but she was still very cautious when it came to important matters.
Moreover, their identities had quietly changed.
Just like that, after bidding farewell to Yan Lingji, Wen Yuan set off for Xinzheng City. It was estimated that Nongyu would also be heading to the Imperial Palace at this moment.
When he arrived at New Zheng City, he headed straight for the Blood-clothed Fort.
As the place where the Blood Strike Marquis lived, the Blood Strike Fort was rarely visited because it had an icy cold aura that made people unable to reach the city.
Unlike what Wen Yuan had imagined, there were very few guards in the castle. There were only a few people, and he easily infiltrated.
After arriving at the castle, he rushed towards the central city tower because that was where the Blood Strike Marquis lived.
At this moment, the city tower was very empty. Nongyu should not have been brought here yet.
Helpless, Wen Yuan could only wait quietly.
Just like that, he waited for an hour. When he saw a red figure appear in his sight, Wen Yuan was shocked. He quickly hid himself on the roof and opened a tile to observe the situation in the room.
He was wearing a red cloak, his hair was as white as snow, and his pale face carried a faint coldness. Even his lips were a little pale.
This was the first time he had seen the Blood Strike Marquis. Just like the rumors, this person had an extremely cold aura.
Presumably, it was because of the cultivation technique he practiced.
A man dressed in blood-red clothes, a man who was even more terrifying than Ji Wuye!
At this moment, the latter was looking at Nongyu, who was lying unconscious on the ground. There was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, making people shudder.
Nongyu also slowly woke up from her dizziness under this gaze.
When she woke up and saw Bai Yifei standing in front of her, she was a little flustered. However, when she remembered what Wen Yuan had taught her yesterday, she slowly calmed down.
However, the next moment, Bai Yifei's words shattered her calm once again.
"What is your relationship with the Fairy Doctor outside the city?”
……
……
"Your Highness, this is the copper box that has been missing for many years in the Yan Country.”
In the palace of Xianyang, a black-robed man with six fingers came to a room and handed the bronze box of the Azure Dragon Seven Constellations to Yan Dan.
