When Xiao Yuxi woke up, she saw Li Tongguang holding her hand and sleeping lightly beside the bed.

She pulled her hand away.

Li Tongguang frowned slightly, then opened his eyes and looked at her.

Seeing Xiao Yuxi wake up, he quickly sat up, his eyes filled with joy.

Xiao Yuxi raised his hand, tapped his index finger, and a faint white light penetrated between his eyebrows.

Li Tongguang's eyes were blurred, he fell down again and fell into a deep sleep.

Xiao Yuxi rolled over and got up.

Her green-white fingertips caressed the side of Li Tongguang's face, and finally stopped at the corner of his mouth and poked him: "You look so pretty when you smile. I really want to kidnap you."

"Unfortunately, I have already found my way back."

"Every step I take in the future will be the opposite of you; every day I stay will be a silent farewell."

"Li Tongguang..."

Xiao Yuxi called his name, but remained silent for a long time.

After a while, there was silence in the room.

The person lying on the bed became Li Tongguang, and Xiao Yuxi had long since disappeared.

Siyi Pavilion.

There is a side hall behind the southwest corner.

The five members of Liudaotang, Ren Ruyi, and Yang Ying are all gathered here.

Xiao and Xi just came back and were led here by the attendants in the hall.

Before she could walk in, she heard Sun Lang shout loudly: "All the monsters and ghosts are here. We haven't finished our own affairs yet. How can we have time to take care of an outsider?"

Yu Shisan echoed: "Beauty, didn't you go to kill people? How come you were saved instead?"

Sun Lang said again: "Zhu Yiwei wants to dig a hole in the Siyi Pavilion. This person cannot be kept, absolutely cannot be kept!"

Yuan Lu whispered: "Brother Lang, please keep your voice down. After all, he is with Sister Xi."

Sun Lang was reluctant, and his voice became louder: "What happened to the second lady's people? The second lady's people can..."

As he was talking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Xiao Yuxi walking in from the door.

Sun Lang's voice suddenly became softer, and his tone became a little softer.

He pretended not to see Xiao Yuxi and said in a different voice: "But that person has a special status after all. What if we stage the farmer and the snake?"

"The Holy One is still in Yong'an Tower, we can't afford the slightest mistake!"

Xiao Yuxi walked up to the crowd, pulled up a seat and sat down: "What farmers and snakes? Who are my people?"

Everyone's eyes were focused on her.

Yuan Lu asked: "Sister Yu Xi, don't you know?"

Xiao Yuxi frowned: "What do you know?"

Yu Shisan smiled and said: "Second Miss doesn't know something, but Brother Feng saved the right envoy of Zhu Yiwei."

Sun Lang complained: "That's all he saved. He even brought people to us early this morning."

Xiao Yuxi turned to look in the direction of Ning Yuanzhou and Ren Ruyi.

She looked directly at Ren Ruyi: "You didn't kill Jialing?"

Ren Ruyi replied: "I once promised Feng Zili a condition."

Xiao Yuxi thought for a while and asked aloud: "What exactly happened?"

Ning Yuanzhou and Ren Ruyi looked at each other and saw that Xiao and Xi really didn't know anything about it, so they recounted what happened that night.

————

The afternoon before yesterday.

Jialing invited Ren Rujian to meet, saying that she was pitiful, but in fact he wanted to surround and kill her.

Ren Ruyi and Ning Yuanzhou repelled a group of Zhuyi guards on the beach of Qingxi River, and Jialing, who was seriously injured and defeated, jumped into the river and escaped.

The two went to the other side of the Qingxi River and blocked Jialing's retreat.

Ren Ruyi asked Jialing about Queen Zhaojie.

When Jialing pulled out the hairpin from her head and tried to commit suicide, a folding fan came across the sky and knocked the hairpin out of her hand.

Feng Zili stood not far away with a smile: "Ren Zuoshi, do you still have that condition?"

Ren Ruyi: "You want to save her life?"

Feng Zili walked up to the three of them, picked up the folding fan from the ground, held it in his hand again and shook it: "Exactly."

Ren Ruyi: "Is it her instruction?"

Feng Zili smiled and said: "Ren Zuoshi, she is my master."

"But I also have my own private affairs, and not everything will be disclosed to her."

Ning Yuanzhou said: "For the sake of money, you can sell dozens of your own lives."

"What is the use of Mr. Feng for such a person?"

Feng Zili: "Ren Zuoshi hasn't answered yet, why is Hall Master Ning so anxious?"

As he spoke, he closed the folding fan, cupped his hands towards Ren Ruyi, and said with a very serious expression: "I know that Ren Zuoshi has never failed to kill anyone, and there has never been an exception."

"I came here today. I don't want to discuss the ugliness of human nature with Hall Master Ning. I just want to ask Ren Zuo to show mercy."

"The antidote that will lead to the accident within ten days, the life of Hall Master Ning, and the ability to not be controlled by others in the future, without leaving any sequelae."

"Can't all these things be exchanged for the life of my old friend?"

Ren Ruyi put away her sword and said coldly: "The conditions I agreed to will be implemented by myself."

After she said that, she and Ning Yuanzhou turned and left.

Feng Zili breathed a sigh of relief.

Jialing stared at Feng Zili's folding fan in trance, wondering what he thought of.

He leaned over and helped Jialing up: "You said there is no tomorrow for Zhu Yiwei's women, so are you willing to follow me?"

Jialing: "Are you from Beipan?"

Feng Zili: "Yes."

Jialing pushed him away: "Zhongyuan and Beipan are world enemies. No matter how desperate I am, it's not your turn to pity me!"

Feng Zili smiled nonchalantly and said, "You killed a bunch of people with one stick. If dogs can be classified as good or bad, how can they be considered human beings?"

"What about Beipan? What about Central Plains?"

"Things are changing and the world has gone through vicissitudes of life. The world's structure has to change over the past thousands of years!"

"What's more, I'm not pitying you. I just remember my past kindness and want to give you another choice now."

Jialing heard the implication of Feng Zili's words.

She hesitated: "Why should I trust you?"

Feng Zili stretched out his hand towards her: "Just follow me and you can have a tomorrow."

Jialing finally held Feng Zili's hand.

It's just that she was too seriously injured. After ensuring her own safety, the breath she was holding dissipated and she fainted in Feng Zili's arms.

Xiao Yuxi finished listening to Ning Yuanzhou and Ren Ruyi's retelling.

She took a deep breath and said, "What about those two people?"

Yuan Lu pointed to the inner room: "Inside, Brother Qian is treating the right envoy Zhu Yiwei."

Xiao Yuxi stood up, turned around and walked towards the back room.

She walked halfway and looked back at Ren Ruyi: "I owe you this matter."

Ren Ruyi replied: "It's an agreement between me and others, it has nothing to do with you."

She thought for a while and finally added: "We've already been apart from each other for a long time, so what's the point of talking about it?"

Xiao Yuxi raised his eyebrows and smiled, saying no more.

Back room.

Jialing lay unconscious on the bed, and Feng Zili sat beside the bed.

Qian Zhao stood aside with an expressionless face: "The sharp instrument entered the lungs, and the congestion remained in the body for two days."

"You have been using your inner strength to protect her life, right? I can't save her from this situation."

Feng Zili responded without looking back: "I know."

Xiao Yuxi walked forward: "Are you waiting for me?"

Feng Zili turned around fiercely.

He looked at Xiao Yuxi and his eyes lit up: "Master."

Xiao Yuxi ignored Feng Zili and said to Qian Zhao, "Thank you for your hard work. Please go out first."

Qian Zhao nodded.

Before he went out, he couldn't help but tell him: "You don't look good, and the matter of life and death is inherently irreversible."

"Your health is the most important thing, don't force it."

Xiao Yuxi smiled: "I understand."

After Qian Zhao left, Xiao Yuxi's expression turned cold instantly: "If you want me to save her, you have to give me a reason."

Feng Zili: "She is my old friend."

Xiao Yuxi was startled.

Feng Zili smiled bitterly and said: "Master, I have been with you for so many years and I have never asked you for anything."

Xiao Yuxi's voice was slightly cold: "In other words, she is useless for what we are going to do next!"

Feng Zili stood up, with a pleading tone in his voice: "Master, I..."

Xiao Yuxi raised her hand and said, "I can save her."

"After this, I want you to summon people from the Chu and Su branches to return to Beipan."

Feng Zili was stunned for a moment: "Didn't I agree to use Anguo as the altar..."

Xiao Yuxi interrupted: "The news is wrong, so the plan will naturally have to be changed accordingly."

Feng Zili: "What are you going to do?"

Xiao Yuxi: "Blood sacrifice at Tianmen Pass."

Feng Zili's whole body was shocked: "Master, are you really sure that Jiutian Xishen is hidden in Tianmen Pass?"

Xiao Yuxi: "I don't have time. No matter what, I have to give it a try."

Feng Zili was silent for a long time, and finally said, "Yes, I will obey the order."
