"As long as you don't mind." After hearing Jiuge's answer, Nangong Yueze lightly rubbed his forehead, "By the way, how long have you known the young master of the Yunxiao tribe?"
Jiuge was startled. She raised her eyes and looked at Nangong Yueze in confusion.
He... what does this mean?
Why did he suddenly ask about Xiao Lingyu?
As if he noticed that his question was a bit strange, Nangong Yueze added, "Don't get me wrong, I just... just think that the young master of the Yunxiao tribe cares about you, so..."
"The Yunxiao Clan and the Feng Clan have been friends for tens of thousands of years. Young Master Ling Yu probably regards me as his sister." Jiuge lowered his head and said, "However, I don't know what happened. Since I fell into coma, When I woke up, my previous memories of myself became intermittent..."
"Really?" Nangong Yueze frowned thoughtfully. He used mind-reading skills to read Jiuge's memory and found that her memory was indeed incomplete.
Has her memory been sealed?
Or did something happen to her that caused her memory loss?
"Your Highness, my memory of my father and mother has been restored. As for the others, it may take some time." Jiuge said with a sigh.
After hearing her words, Nangong Yueze calmed down his emotions and said comfortingly: "Princess Fengge, take your time with the memory matters. If you really can't, I can help you."
"Thank you, Your Highness, I know what to do." Jiuge nodded.
Although she vaguely felt that there was something strange about the Lord of the Moon Goddess in front of her, she couldn't tell what was strange.
Perhaps, all this is really just her illusion.
"By the way, Your Highness, is the injury on your hand getting better?" Jiuge suddenly changed the subject.
"Well, it's just a minor injury, it's no longer a problem." Nangong Yueze said with a smile.
"That's good." Jiuge pursed his thin lips and said no more.
That day, the two of them stayed in Phoenix Valley for a long time. It was not until Nangong Yueze sensed that the Yunxiao people had left, that he stood up and said to Jiuge: "Princess Fengge, it's getting late, I'll take you back. I will stay with the Phoenix Clan until Queen Feng’s coffin is buried.”
Jiuge was silent for a moment and whispered: "Your Highness has been on the battlefield for several days. You should go back and have a good rest. The Feng Clan has suffered sudden changes. I am afraid that I cannot take care of you, Your Highness..."
"You don't have to worry about me anymore. Seeing how exhausted you are, I really don't feel comfortable leaving."
"Your Highness..." Jiuge hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, "Then I'll trouble you, Your Highness."
"Princess Fengge, you don't have to be polite. In fact, I just..."
"Your Highness, there is no need to explain, all the ministers understand." Jiu Ge lowered his eyes and interrupted Nangong Yueze's words.
"Huh?" Nangong Yueze was stunned, "Do you understand? What do you know?"
He clearly hadn't said anything just now.
Jiu Ge raised his head and slightly raised the corners of his lips, with a slightly complicated smile, "I know your Highness's thoughts. Your Highness saved my life and helped me send my mother back to the Feng Clan. No matter what, I will definitely take good care of His Highness."
Nangong Yueze hesitated for a moment, then frowned, "Princess Fengge, don't get me wrong, I don't mean what you think, I just don't worry about your safety."
"I..." Jiuge opened her mouth but did not continue. The look in his eyes was so clear and pure, not at all what she thought.
Maybe, she really thought too much...
"Okay, let's go."
After saying that, Nangong Yueze stood up without waiting for Jiuge's agreement.
Jiuge nodded and immediately followed his footsteps.
Anyway, as long as she remembers in her heart that she owes the Moon Temple a favor, it is enough.
She didn't want him to misunderstand anything because of this matter.
After all, the identity gap between the two of them is still quite big...
…
The royal city of the Phoenix Clan.
When Nangong Yueze and Jiuge came back again, Xiao Lingyu had already left.
Jiuge didn't speak anymore, but just knelt and sat in front of Meng Wanci's coffin all night.
Seeing her back, Nangong Yueze felt a pang of distress. He didn't know what to do to alleviate her pain. The only thing he could do was to stay with her.
Meng Wanci's funeral lasted for seven days, and Jiuge also knelt in front of the coffin for seven days. On the last day, Jiuge finally couldn't hold on anymore and fainted in front of the coffin.
"Princess!!" Just when everyone was panicking, Nangong Yueze rushed to her immediately and hugged her directly into his arms.
"Feng Ge! Feng Ge!!" Nangong Yueze called several times.
Jiuge's face was pale and haggard, and there was deep sadness between his brows, as if he was enduring the torment in his heart.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Nangong Yueze frowned, stretched out his hand to touch her pulse, and checked.
"Your Highness, how is Ge'er...how is she?" Feng Jiuxiao ran forward and asked with a worried look on her face.
"She fainted because of overwork and sadness." Nangong Yueze looked at her, his eyes filled with distress.
"Alas, her mother's passing has been a huge blow to her. Although she has been very calm on the surface, I know that she is in more pain than anyone else in her heart." Feng Jiuxiao sighed, with a rather sad tone in her tone.
At this moment, Xiao Lingyu, who had been standing not far away, suddenly came over and said, "Your Highness, please hand over Princess Feng Ge to me. I will take her back to the palace."
Seeing that the person coming was Xiao Lingyu, Nangong Yueze's face immediately darkened, and he shouted directly at him: "I am here, what do you want to do with me??!!"
Seeing this, Xiao Lingyu's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly bowed his hands and said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry, but I was rude..."
Nangong Yueze narrowed his long and narrow phoenix eyes and stared at Xiao Lingyu. After a long while, he said calmly: "Listen to me, stay away from Feng Ge in the future if nothing happens!!"
"Your Highness, I..." Xiao Lingyu's face turned pale. He didn't understand why Nangong Yueze was so hostile to him, "Your Highness, I have known Ge'er for a long time, I..."
"I told you to stay away from her, don't you understand?!" Before Xiao Lingyu could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Nangong Yueze.
Seeing that the other party was angry, Xiao Lingyu could not help but tremble, and quickly knelt down and said: "Your Highness, please calm down, Your Highness, please calm down, I did not mean to offend Your Highness!!"
Nangong Yueze didn't bother to look at him again. He directly hugged Feng Ge and said softly to Feng Jiuxiao: "King Feng, I leave this place to you. I will send Feng Ge to rest first."
"Yes, Your Highness!" King Feng agreed quickly.
…
Soon, Jiuge was carried back to Fengming Palace by Nangong Yueze.
After half a day, she woke up faintly, opened her eyes, and when she saw the extremely handsome face in front of her, Jiu Ge's expression was stunned for a moment.
"Your Highness, why is it you?" Jiuge called out weakly, struggling to get up.
"Don't move, just lie down." Nangong Yueze said softly.
"But I still want to spend time with my mother... My daughter..." Jiuge choked with sobs.
Before she could finish speaking, Nangong Yueze's hand had already touched her face, "Queen Feng's funeral is over. Feng Ge, you fainted because you were too sad..."
"The knot... is over?" Jiuge froze when he heard this, his eyes slowly opened wide, but he didn't say another word.
These days, she thought of many things, her mother, her father, and the white-robed divine king who rescued her from the battlefield.
However, when she dug into these memories carefully, her mind was empty.
Seeing Jiu Ge's appearance, Nangong Yueze's heart suddenly twitched, and he subconsciously held her in his arms, "Feng Ge, I like you, and I promised you that I will kill those who killed Feng Ge with my own hands." The queen’s men will kill her.”
"Your Highness..." Jiuge looked at Nangong Yueze blankly, a strange feeling welling up in his heart.
He said he liked himself...
"Your Highness..." Jiuge bit his lip, as if he mustered up the courage to ask, "Why is Your Highness so nice to me?"
"I just said, I like you, isn't this reason enough?" Nangong Yueze lowered his eyes and looked at Jiuge, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
"Your Highness, I...my daughter..." Jiuge looked at Nangong Yueze blankly, forgetting how to react for a moment.
"If Princess Fengge already has a man you like, just tell me. If not, will I have a chance?" Nangong Yueze hesitated for a moment, and finally said this.
"Your Highness, you'd better not make such a joke..." Jiuge blushed and whispered.
Nangong Yueze pursed her lips lightly, "I'm serious, not joking."
Jiuge lowered his eyes and stopped talking, but his heartbeat inexplicably accelerated a bit.
…
Outside the fantasy world, there is a floating jade fairyland.
Three days have passed since the second round of trials.
In the evening, when Bing Mengdie was about to use the Shadow Spirit Mirror to check the situation in the fantasy realm, suddenly, a black light and shadow appeared out of thin air above her head. It only stayed for a moment, and the black light and shadow entered the fantasy realm directly through the teleportation circle on the ground. .
Seeing this scene, Bing Mengdie's eyes shrank suddenly and she rushed towards Yao Ji's training room.
"God Lord! God Lord!!"
At this time, Yao Ji was practicing with her eyes closed. When she heard the call, she opened her eyes, frowned and asked, "What happened?"
"Master Shen, it's not good, someone just broke into the illusion!!"
"What?" Yao Ji heard this and immediately raised her hand to cast a spell to observe.
After a moment, her face suddenly became solemn, "Is that...the aura of Demon Emperor Qian Luoye?"
"Shenjun, what did you say, Demon Emperor?" Bing Mengdie asked with a tight face, "What is he doing here?"
Before Yao Ji could speak, a terrifying pressure suddenly surged in the sky above the entire North Sea Icefield.
"Oops!" Yao Ji's pupils shrank suddenly.
"Master Shen, what happened?" Bing Mengdie's expression suddenly changed and she looked at Yao Ji in panic.
The pressure came so suddenly, like a huge mountain crashing down on her, leaving her breathless.
"The illusion under the Moon Temple is no longer under my control!! It's Qian Luoye, and his spirit has just broken into the illusion!!!" Yao Ji said with a pale face.
"Huh?? Then... what should we do now?" Bing Mengdie asked in panic.
"If the matter is urgent, we must stop Qian Luoye immediately!" Yao Ji gritted her teeth and said, "Mengdie, you immediately go back to heaven and tell the Lord Qionghua that Qian Luoye's soul has escaped and let him Rush to the Nine Nether Abyss as soon as possible! Don’t let the devil’s true form come out again!!”
"Yes, Lord God! I'll go right now!!" Without any time to think, Bing Mengdie immediately turned into a ball of purple light and disappeared directly from the spot.
Yao Ji took a deep breath, jumped up, and flew towards the entrance of the teleportation circle.
