Looking at this scene, Long Qingyue felt a slight warmth in her heart. Although Qin Luo was confused for a moment, his nature was not that bad. He was just jealous of Qin Lieyan and Halo, jealous that his parents were so good to his younger brother, and gave Shen Ce an opportunity. There is a gap that can be exploited. As long as Qin Luo is given some guidance, he can get back on the right track.
After staying in Yibei for a few days, Xuanyuan Bing'er's injuries were almost healed. As expected, she and Qinling went to the Qinglong Kingdom with dozens of boxes of betrothal gifts.
The arrival of King Bei and Princess Bei surprised Long Li, Ye Lan and others. After they explained their purpose, they all smiled happily.
They both admired Qin Lieyan's character. He had been silently by Xiaoyue's side from the beginning, protecting her from wind and rain and taking great care of her. They felt very relieved to have him take care of Xiaoyue. So the marriage was quickly decided. After that, it is expected that Long Qingyue will get married when she turns seventeen.
Originally, according to the wishes of both parents, they could get married and have children after reaching the age of fifteen. Later, at Long Qingyue's strong request, the age was finally changed to seventeen.
But seventeen years old still felt too early for her. Looking at Qin Lieyan's slightly pursed lips, his eyes full of love and mist, as if he felt aggrieved like a little daughter-in-law, Long Qingyue couldn't help but curl her lips. After a convulsion, she will pretend to be pitiful and cute.
Shui Qilin and Huo Yu also looked at him with disdain.
While they were getting engaged happily here, it was a cold and lonely place in the Nether Sect of Guifeng.
The cold and hard stone couch was covered with a piece of soft fox fur. Shen Ce's closed eyes trembled, then slowly opened them. The woman in red who was guarding him immediately said happily: "Master, are you awake?" "
Shen Ce's face was still a little pale, and he narrowed his beautiful peach blossom eyes and asked, "How long have I been asleep?"
"Ten days."
Ten days? He sat up and found that most of the internal injuries on his body had healed. He frowned in confusion. How could he have suffered such severe backlash in just ten days...
The woman in red next to him seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, with a trace of hesitation and fear in her eyes, "Leader, the dark elder is here."
Hearing this, Shen Ce frowned and said softly. As soon as he raised his head, he saw a black figure slowly walking in from the door of the palace. His whole body was shrouded in a black robe. His aura was cold and strange. He couldn't see the face of the person coming from the robe. , like a seducer from hell.
Shen Ce got out of bed and bowed slightly to the visitor, with a respectful expression, without any trace of the past flirtatiousness, "Thank you, Elder Dark, for healing my wounds."
The Dark Elder waved his hand, walked straight to the chair opposite the stone couch, and sat down on the chair. His tone was quite displeased, "Why can't you handle such a small thing?"
Shen Ce lowered his head and said, "I am willing to accept the punishment."
"Hmph! Who will do the work for the Ghost King after I punish you?" The Dark Elder snorted coldly, "Forget it, the Ghost King has handed over a new task."
With a flick of the palm, a drawing appeared in his hand. The drawing showed a green jade plate finger with an ordinary style and average workmanship.
"Yes." Shen Ce reached out to take it, frowned, and asked, "This jade finger doesn't seem to have anything special. The Ghost King is looking for it..."
"You can't ask questions that shouldn't be asked. Just do things well. Okay, I have to go back to the realm of gods and demons first. If there is any news, let me know immediately." The dark elder stood up, and his figure suddenly disappeared from where he was. , turned into a black smoke and slowly disappeared into the air.
