....

In the extreme silence and darkness, only a warm fragrance and a masculine scent of submerged sweat lingered all around the place.

The charming feeling was secretly enchanting them, full of warmth and trembling, spreading across their limbs.

He was holding her hand with his big palm, and the thin calluses in his palm rubbed her delicate skin, as if he could always control her weakness easily, so that she couldn't act rashly.

The two were very close and she was shrinking in his arms.

He slightly lowered his head to surround her, and the hot breath sprayed around her, burning her cheeks, bringing her an endless ecstasy.

For a moment, Murong Ci moved her stiff body, and a rubbing touch came from her cheeks.

She couldn't tell anymore...

whose breath was entangled with whose breath,

whose body shook,

whose heart lake was rippling,

who was charming and clear, like dreaming...

It couldn't be described by mere words.

For some reason, she was keenly aware that her muscles and bones had never been softer before.

She felt lazy as if she didn't want to move, and wanted to stay in his arms like this forever.

There was no blood and flesh,

no rain and wind,

no swords and frost knives,

in this magical world of tenderness.

The years passed by peaceful and happy.

It seemed like a good choice to hug a man like this until they were old.

Suddenly, Murong Ci woke up in shock from this beautiful and fragrant dream, with her heart cold.

'How can you have such an idea?

How can you have such a ridiculous idea about Murong Yu?'

From the time she had memory, she had only one responsibility and aspiration in her life:

'To be a competent Crown Prince,

to become the Emperor,

to dominate the Northern Yan Kingdom,

and to be a wise Emperor who loved the people of her Country like a son.'

That's why Murong Yu's cunning and wolfish ambition, ruthlessness, strategizing, and resourcefulness were her greatest enemy.

There was only hatred, life or death between her and him,

'How can there be selfish affair with children?'

She suddenly got up and went out, panting quickly.

Murong Yu walked forward silently.

The dozens of people in front had finally reached the end of the tunnel, but they hadn't found the person they were asked to look for and capture, so they had to rush back to the Military Supervisor Facility.

The exit of the tunnel was hidden by branches and grass.

The countryside was silent and everything was quiet.

The thing light of the moon dispelled the dense ink-like night, and the surrounding environment was faintly visible.

The night breeze blew, and the soft rustling sounds of the branches of the trees, added a little bit of treacherousness in the air.

After walking for half a mile, there were two small paths under their feet.

Murong Yu said solemnly:

"Going this way, will take to the southeast, while this way will take to the southwest.

The official's road is less than a mile from here, too.

Taking the illegal Military Weapons out from here is indeed very convenient and one can also come in by carriage."

Murong Ci asked:

"Will we return to the Military Supervisor Facility now?

Qin Ruo is still there, and if she can't find me, she'll be worried that something happened to me."

"Don't worry. This King has already instructed my subordinates to tell Qin Ruo that you are okay.

Qin Ruo should have already left the Military Supervisor Facility by now."

"Then what about us?

Will we go back to the city?"

However, they didn't have a horse or carriage, and if they walked back to the city from here, they wouldn't know how long it would take.

Murong Yu didn't answer, and moved forward.

She followed for half a mile and they came to a stream.

He picked up some dry branches and lit a fire.

She was very thirsty, so she went to drink two sips of the clear and sweet water stream, and then sat on the soft grass to rest.

Murong Ci thought secretly,

'Is he planning to wait here until dawn before returning to the city?'

Actually, she could have sent a signal to contact Qin Ruo and Rong Zhan, from the World's Greatest Manor, but then Murong Yu would get suspicious.

She thought that he certainly had a way to contact his subordinates as well, but couldn't understand why he wouldn't contact them and return to the city immediately.

"Let's go back to the city.

Is there a way for the Prince Regent to contact your subordinates?"

she asked lightly.

"There's no hurry."

Murong Yu said softly, leaving a distance from the campfire, and lay down on the grass.
