She slept in Chu Yan’s arms and thought about how the two of them had slept like this for the entire afternoon. Liu Sanniang’s face was a little hot, but Chu Yan did not seem to hear her. Liu Sanniang could only raise her voice. “Chu Yan, are you awake?”

Chu Yan hugged Liu Sanniang tightly and replied softly, “Yes, I’m awake.”

Liu Sanniang heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s great. We should get up and eat.”

Liu Sanniang stood up, but she was immediately pulled back into Chu Yan’s arms. Liu Sanniang was a little embarrassed. “You’re in rut…”

Chu Yan’s voice was hoarse, as if he was suppressing his desire. “Yes.”

Liu Sanniang asked stutteringly, “Did, did you do it with anyone?”

Chu Yan hugged Liu Sanniang and turned over, pressing her under him. “Only you. There won’t be anyone.”

Liu Sanniang was shocked. “You, you’ve been suppressing your desire for so long?”

In her previous life, when she met Long Yi, he was still a young man. Now, Long Yi had already become mature.

Liu Sanniang smiled faintly. “It’s been hard on you.”

Chu Yan pecked Liu Sanniang’s lips. “So, grow up quickly. I’m waiting for you to grow up.”

Liu Sanniang blushed. “I’ll become an adult in two years.”

Chu Yan stood up. “Get up. It’s time to eat.”

Chu Yan left first. Liu Sanniang tidied up and opened a box in the cabinet. There were a few black beads lying inside. She opened her palm and put another one in.

From Daoist Yun Guan’s memories, Liu Sanniang knew that the black figure was called the Divine Emperor. Hu Yu had also said that there was someone called the Divine Emperor a thousand years ago. She believed that it would not be long before she met him.

After putting away the box, Liu Sanniang went to eat.

Liu Yuanyuan said, “Venerable, war has begun. The world is not peaceful anymore.”

When Liu Yuanyuan went out, she heard the commoners talking about the urgent news of the upcoming war from the border. The commoners were worried.

Liu Sanniang nodded. “I already know.”

Liu Yuanyuan did not eat much. In the past, when war broke out, demons like them would go to the mountains and forests to wait for the war to end.

But now she clearly couldn’t leave.

Hu Yu sighed. “War is the most cruel.”

When there was a war, those soldiers had to use their lives to protect their home. Once the soldiers went to the battlefield, some people would lose their husband, some people would lose their father, and some people would lose their son.

Liu Sanniang said to Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan, “We’ll leave the capital in a few days.”

“The Divine Emperor cultivates the Dao of life and death. If he is not eliminated, there will be no peace in the world. Yin and Yang can’t be balanced.”

Since she knew that the person who spread the evil was the Divine Emperor, she naturally had to find him.

The evil sources in the capital had been eliminated. There was no need for her to stay.

Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu nodded. “Yes, Venerable.”

After dinner, they returned to their rooms to rest. Liu Sanniang quickly fell asleep.

In a daze, she found herself in a world filled with red.

A muffled bird cry sounded. Liu Sanniang looked straight at the big red bird that was soaring into the sky and flapping its wings with flames.

When Liu Sanniang woke up, she realized that it was a fire phoenix.

What did the fire phoenix she dreamed of represent?

There was a knock on the door outside the courtyard. Hu Yu went to open the door. Xia Hongyuan was alone outside. He glanced at Hu Yu and nodded slightly. “Miss Hu, is Miss Liu at home?”

Hu Yu moved aside. “Venerable is at home.”

When Xia Hongyuan entered, he sat in the courtyard with a calm expression.

Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan did not have a good impression of Xia Hongyuan, so they did not even greet him.

Xia Hongyuan did not mind. He sat up straight.

When Liu Sanniang came out of the house, Xia Hongyuan stood up. “Miss Liu.”

Liu Sanniang nodded. “Your Highness the first prince.”

After Liu Sanniang sat down, Xia Hongyuan sat opposite her. “Miss Liu, there is urgent news from the border that Jun county has been occupied. Now that the Xia Dynasty is recruiting soldiers, I’ve also asked my father to allow me to go to the border. I don’t know if 1’11 ever be able to come back.”

Liu Sanniang looked at Xia Hongyuan. Xia Hongyuan was very guarded, so much so that his face was hidden in the thick white fog, afraid that he would be seen through.

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “First Prince, what brought you here today?”

Xia Hongyuan knew that there was no need to beat around the bush with Liu Sanniang, so he went straight to the point. “Miss Liu, His Highness the Crown Prince has been very old these past few days. 1 don’t understand why he saved me. Now, he’s the first to propose going to the battlefield. Back then, you were asked to find him by Xian Fei. I want to know if his change took place during that period of time.”

Xia Hongming, who originally wanted to compete with him for the throne, suddenly didn’t care much about it. That calmness was definitely not fake.

The war in the Xia Dynasty was pressing, so Xia Hongyuan naturally had to go to the battlefield. At this moment, it was impossible for him to hide in the capital like a coward.

What he wanted to know was what happened to Xia Hongming.

Liu Sanniang looked at Xia Hongyuan. “First Prince, have you ever thought about how the Third Prince survived back then? You’ve known each other for many years. You should know that it’s impossible for him to survive on his own.”

Xia Hongyuan frowned. This was exactly what he wanted to ask.

Xia Hongyuan lowered his eyes. “Miss Liu, can you tell me? He suddenly didn’t seem to care much about the throne anymore. Actually, he’s right. As men, we should protect the country with our blood.”

“The Second Prince is not in good health, but he insisted on going to the border. The Fourth Prince is missing. The Fifth Prince is not intelligent, but he also wants to go. All the princes who are at the right age took the initiative to go to the border. This is something 1 never thought would happen.”

Xia Hongyuan clenched his fists. Even he found it unbelievable that such a day would come where his brothers would stop scheming against each other and were trying to protect the country wholeheartedly.

He used to hate Liu Sanniang very much, but now, he respected her.

Liu Sanniang said slowly, “Your Highness, if you want to know, extend your hand.”

Xia Hongyuan reached out his hand. Liu Sanniang gave the memory to Xia Hongyuan. When she retracted her hand, Xia Hongyuan was silent for a long time..
