Niya's palace was quiet, and most of the maids and guards were fast asleep. Only the golden-armored warrior in front of the door and a few people remained awake.
Among them is the owner of this palace-Niya.
It's not that she doesn't want to sleep, it's that for five days in a row, whenever it's late at night, someone will always approach her bedroom and try every possible way to get in.
There is no one else but Tang Yan who can do this kind of thing.
Niya really had no way to deal with him, so she could only find ways to defend against him.
but……
There seems to be something unusual today. It's already early in the morning, why is there still no movement?
Is there some new trick?
Niya waited silently, feeling angry and annoyed. Unknowingly, it had become a habit. She didn't dare to sleep without being teased by this kid a few times?!
Time passed minute by minute, but there was still no movement. It was quiet outside the palace door, without the slightest sound.
"What tricks are you playing again, little bastard?" Niya simply put on her clothes and stood up, ready to take the initiative. No matter what other tricks this kid came up with, he would just beat him up and throw him back for trouble, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
.
But not long after I walked out of the bedroom, I unexpectedly heard some movement outside the palace door, as if someone was talking in detail. Out of curiosity, I quietly leaned over.
"Ms. Hilita, do you have anything important to do when you come here so late?" The golden-armored warrior bowed respectfully with an ambiguous smile.
Hailita pretended to be calm, but her eyes were a little erratic. If it hadn't been for the darker night tonight, you could have seen a blush on her cheeks: "I...I want to ask...Tang Yan, is he in there?"
?"
"Are you looking for Master Yan? Yes, you are here all the time these days."
"Can I... go in?" When Hailita said this, her face was as red as an apple. Nearly two months have passed since she mentioned her intention to pursue Tang Yan next to Niya that day.
But this bastard had been staying in the martial arts arena and training like hell, and he was too embarrassed to interrupt. Finally, something happened with Matthews, and he was disturbed by the second prince.
Until five days ago, because of the Leiyun Mountains incident, Tang Yan and others ended their training. Hailita thought that the opportunity had come, and tried all kinds of ways to create an 'accidental encounter' with each other, but due to various unexpected events,
And disrupt.
Hailita sometimes even doubted whether these accidents were really just accidents, or whether they were deliberately caused by Tang Yan.
All in all, this little guy seems to be a shameless bastard. He teases several sisters in the family from time to time, but when someone is really ready to attack, he runs away in a hurry.
Other than pretending to be dumbfounded, he simply disappeared.
Hailita couldn't hold back anymore. She strives for her own happiness. This has always been the motto she firmly believed in. Although she didn't know when she started to fall in love with this stupid boy, it was undeniable that there was always a feeling in her heart.
The urge to conquer him.
The old man has confirmed the marriage between Niya and Tang Yan, but as long as they are not really engaged, he has a chance, not to mention his status is not low, enough to be worthy of Tang Yan.
So...take the initiative and take down this guy first!
After thinking about it, Henrietta finally made a decision and took advantage of the gloomy night to sneak over for a walk.
The guarding golden-armored warrior smiled silently and without saying anything else, he gently opened the door and expressed his intention with practical actions.
Hailita mustered up her courage and ran all the way into the palace. After twisting and turning in the luxurious and huge palace, she came to a slightly remote place, which was Tang Yan's room.
Tang Yan originally lived in the luxury area on the second floor, but this guy teased Niya from time to time, and Niya was so embarrassed that she drove him to the corner.
It can be regarded as being sent to the frontier as a punishment.
But it’s better this way and makes it easier to move around.
Hailita never thought that she would chase after a man and behave in such a crazy and almost 'debauched' way. Even now, her heart is still pounding and she keeps taking deep breaths to remind herself to be brave and to be brave.
calm.
Soon, Hailita came to Tang Yan's door. She finally plucked up the courage and raised her hand to knock on the door. But the moment her delicate hand touched the door, her smile froze slightly, and she was stunned for a moment, rosy.
The color of her beautiful face slowly faded away.
because……
From within the closed door, a thin...moaning sound came...
Is it Tang Yan?
It's very light and deep, but the voice is definitely that of Tang Yan!
Helena staggered two steps back and stared at the door intently, her charming face pale.
In this palace, in Tang Yan's room, who can have such a relationship? Could it be... her aunt?! But she obviously treated Tang Yan very coldly, how could she...
Hailita felt that something was tightly grasping her heart, and her eyes were gradually covered with mist. She wanted to push open the door and rush in, but in the end she forced herself to hold back. She quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and tried to regain her original self.
Smile and leave quickly along the original path.
Niya watched Helena walk into the palace and wanted to follow her out of curiosity, but she was so arrogant that she did not take a step and quietly returned to the room, preparing to have a peaceful sleep.
But after lying on the bed, my mind was in a mess, and I couldn't fall asleep despite tossing and turning.
What is Hailita doing here? Looking for Tang Yan? What can she do in the middle of the night? Does this girl really like Tang Yan? But no matter what, there is no need to come here at night, right?
Damn it! What's so good about this bastard that girls actually like him?
However, Hailita is the most beautiful girl in the younger generation of the family, she is charming and enchanting, and she is also a very intellectual girl, which gives Tang Yan an advantage.
Did you just take this opportunity to get rid of your marriage?
Let the two of them combine?
Niya has never objected to her marriage, but she has never expressed her attitude clearly, leaving it to her father's control. In terms of relationships, Niya has never expected to have true feelings, and she has always maintained her guard and arrogance.
It also prevented her from having any feelings. So when her father proposed that she marry Tang Yan, Niya did not object, but only slightly added a time limit - unlimited!
On the one hand, I hope to give Tang Yan enough time to become strong and mature, and have enough strength to conquer myself, which can be considered psychologically acceptable. Secondly, I want to observe Tang Yan carefully and see through what kind of person he is.
As for whether to actually get married, it will depend on the situation after getting it.
But after this short and not long contact, Niya discovered a phenomenon that surprised her - although Tang Yan teased her from time to time and often took advantage of her unscrupulously, he actually never took any real offense.
To put it a little more directly, Tang Yan is just having fun at best! It is a way to relax after being tired, and it is also a way to have fun when you are idle and bored!
When Niya discovered this phenomenon, she was surprised. As the most beautiful woman in the empire, she had never doubted her appearance and charm, which was enough to charm any man, but this bastard seemed...not interested at all!
Play? Just play!
At first, I only had this thought occasionally and didn't pay much attention to it, but tonight... this suspicion seems to be surprisingly strong and clear.
Niya tossed and turned, feeling a little irritable. She wanted to force herself to sleep, but her emotions became stronger. Finally, she simply put on her clothes and walked out of the bedroom.
A few minutes later.
Niya stood in front of Tang Yan's room door, her face gradually darkened.
What weird sound is this? Moaning?!
Could it be...it's Tang Yan and Hailita?!
Shameless! Rogue! Hypocritical! Niya snorted coldly, turned around and left, her pretty face no longer showing any strange color, but only indifference, exactly the same indifference as before.
In the room, Tang Yan's whole body was tense, his face was covered in cold sweat, his hands were clenched tightly, and he was suffering from great pain, and suppressed moans came out uncontrollably from his breath.
Starting today and yesterday, this kind of pain seems to be absent. It is not very strong, but it is like maggots attached to the bones, intermittent, and never ends.
This was the reason why Tang Yan was distracted when everyone was discussing in the main hall this morning.
The source of this pain is not elsewhere, but the Blood Soul Tree in the Qi Sea!
All this time, the Blood Soul Tree has been in a deep sleep state, and the two occasional awakenings were also at the juncture of Tang Yan's crisis.
But since yesterday, the Blood Soul Tree has shown some abnormal emotions, trembling from time to time, waving its branches from time to time, seemingly light movements, but it stirred Tang Yan's soul to agony, and the vast sea of air set off surging waves.
Tang Yan didn't know why, and he kept trying to comfort him. The Blood Soul Tree gave him some respect, and would occasionally quiet down, standing blankly in the sea of air, as if he was falling asleep, or deep in thought, or more like he was searching and exploring.
What.
Tang Yan was very curious and tried to comfort him, but they couldn't communicate with each other. They had no idea what was wrong with the Blood Soul Tree and what it wanted to do.
After nightfall today, Tang Yan sat cross-legged and meditated again, hoping to feel the blood soul tree's thoughts, but... after being sluggish for a whole afternoon, it suddenly became violent, shaking its head violently, waving its branches, and its five roots went crazy.
It also seemed to be twitching, and both the air and the soul were caught in violent tremors.
The pain was like being peeled off by cramps, and it was like crushing the soul.
It hurts! It hurts to the bone!
Despite Tang Yan's amazing perseverance, he still couldn't help but groan in pain.
He tried to communicate with the blood doll and wanted to know what happened, but there was no response at all. He tried to cover the blood soul tree with ghost green fire, but what he got was an even more manic counterattack.
At this moment, the Blood Soul Tree actually showed signs of breaking free.
