Husband, Wait Please - C243
He looked at the guards and laughed, “Are you the guards? I’ve already heard from Tian Nan about it. He’s truly loyal and has an extraordinary demeanor! No need to be nervous, I am just a lousy old man with no cultivation at all. ”
Hua Rulan smiled and stepped forward, “All of you, step down.”
“Yes, my lord.”
Everyone from the Divine Demon Guard backed off to the side, but their icy gazes were still locked onto the Emperor of Chu.
Everyone believed that if this old man did anything out of line, he would be cut into pieces in an instant.
Facing such a threat, the king of the Chaotic State displayed an extraordinary bearing. He seemed to have not sensed the killing intent at all, and only looked at Hua Rulan from head to toe, his eyes filled with admiration.
Hua Rulan stood in front of him naturally and naturally. Towards this old man, she had an inexplicable good impression of him in her heart.
He looked at him as though he was looking at Immortal Mulan all those years ago.
“Miss Ruo Lan, is what you said to Tiannan true?” The Emperor asked with a smile.
Although there was a smile on her face, Hua Ruo Lan could see the unease and apprehension in his eyes.
Hua Ruo Lan thought to herself, “Looks like the gap between the top and the bottom is really big. I got so nervous when I heard that I could get more spirit stones here.”
Hua Rulan nodded slightly and said, “It’s only fifty percent.”
“Fifty percent …” “That would already be excellent!”
Only then did he say, “Is there anything I need to work for?”
Hua Ruo Lan smiled, “Since we are going to trade with the Eastern Goblin Tribe, we naturally need the goods. However, I just had the thought that I still need to refine the things I trade with them. ”
That night, Hua Ruo Lan stayed in the Royal Palace of Chao Yun.
Within a separate palace, there were Fiendgod Guards guarding the insides of the buildings. Saber Fighters lined the outside of the palace, and soon, all sorts of ores were being delivered to the hall.
Although the source of spirit stones was controlled by the East Sea, the State of Chao Yun had plenty of different ores. Although the grade wasn’t high, what Hua Ruo Lan was refining wasn’t some heaven-defying magic treasure. It was originally a bulky item, so there was nothing to be picky about.
For three days and three nights, the magical equipment that was refined was piled up like a small mountain, and Hua Rulan was panting from exhaustion.
However, it was finally completed.
When the last ore in the palace turned into a pearl, Hua Rulan stopped.
For the past three days, Ruo Lan had been refining magical equipment, but Jun Wu Yi hadn’t stayed in the palace, but had secretly sneaked out of the palace, and had begun to contact his loyal subordinates.
Jun Wu Yao had taken over the Qilin’s nest to impersonate him in the position of the Demon Lord, this was definitely a heaven-defying matter.
As the devil lord of the devil race, Jun Wu Yi had already started making arrangements before the war even started with Jun Wu Yao.
Speaking of which, although he was worried that Hua Ruo Lan’s body would be able to withstand it, he didn’t stop her from refining her magic treasure.
For some things, letting her do them was the best form of care.
And for the past three days, the only person who had been by Hua Rulan’s side was Ji City.
The capital was cold to the end as well. If it had been anyone else who had said something close to a confession, they would have been perturbed for a long time, but the capital did not.
As far as he was concerned, everything in his life belonged to the Lord, including his physical body and soul.
After he understood this principle, he became calm.
The reason why Ruo Lan kept her plan was to keep an eye on his situation at all times.
After battling Dao-Xuan, even though Ji Ning didn’t appear to be in any major danger, Ruo Lan knew very well that given how powerful Rift Sky was, how could there be no backlash?
Sure enough, after three days, Ji Du’s body had pretty much recovered, but his mental state was in a terrible state. It was as if his entire body had been completely drained.
Although he pretended to look like he had fully recovered, Ruo Lan could clearly feel it.
For the past three days, Ruo Lan had been refining magic treasures day and night. She arranged for guards to stand by her side.
Although he was called a guard, all he did was urge him to rest.
Otherwise, with the capital’s personality, it would surely be guarding the outside of the palace without rest.
If he did not rest, he would never rest.
“My lord, please rest for a moment!” Ji Du said solemnly.
Ruo Lan nodded with a smile. “It’s time to rest. I’m so tired!”
As he spoke, he stretched lazily and lay down on the ground.
Ji rushed to the side to retrieve the blanket, but when he returned, he found that Ruoran had already fallen asleep.
He was sleeping so peacefully with a sweet smile on his face.
He gently covered her with the blanket and stared at her beautiful face for a long time.
Suddenly, he raised his hand and heavily slapped his face. However, just as he was halfway there, he stopped.
“Do not disturb Master’s rest!” Ji Du muttered to himself, then gritted his teeth, “To covet my lord with such disrespectful eyes, this is a capital offense!”
Just as he said that, he was stunned again. He recalled what Ruo Lan had said. His life was Ruo Lan’s. Without Ruo Lan’s command, he couldn’t die …
“You can avoid the death sentence, but you can’t escape the guilt of living. You should punish yourself with torture.”
After mumbling twice, Ji Du frowned and said softly, “But this is the time for the Lord to use the servant. This punishment shall be kept for the future! If you can make up for it, it would be best if you can, otherwise it will definitely be a heavy punishment! ”
As the sound of his voice faded, he gently retreated out of the palace gates.
Rulan was still asleep, with a sweet smile on her lips.
There wasn’t a trace of energy undulations coming from her body, and even her own defenses were completely relaxed.
In the palace of the Chao Yun, beside Ji Du, under the protection of the most loyal and reliable Fiendgod Guards … What was there to worry about?
This sleep lasted until dawn of the next day. Only then did Ruo Lan wake up.
Looking at the blanket on her body, Ruo Lan’s lips curled up into a faint smile. He looked around and didn’t see any trace of Ji Du.
She stood up and walked slowly towards the palace gate.
He felt that at the door, he saw a young man sitting by the door with a sword in his arms. It was Ji Du.
Ruo Lan walked over softly. She noticed that Ji Du’s face had a bit of fatigue on it. At this moment, he was also in a deep sleep.
Ruo Lan smiled. Fighting against Adept Dao-Xuan truly was too tiring for this child.
No matter how hard his heart was, no matter how ruthless he was, he was still only seventeen years old.
Looking at his handsome and resolute face, Ruo Lan sighed from the bottom of her heart.
Lifting his hand, he carefully covered the blanket with it before silently walking outside.
As soon as Ruo Lan left, Ji opened her eyes.
As Ruo Lan’s personal guard, how could he dare to relax at all? Although he was in a deep sleep, the slightest movement in the wind and grass was enough to alert him. When Ruo Lan got up, he had already woken up.
The blanket on him still smelled of her, and when she blushed a little, she carefully took it off and folded it. He was about to put it back in when he stopped.
“Although this is the property of the Chaoyun Imperial Palace, it was also given to me by the Lord …” Yes, that’s right! This is what the Lord has bestowed upon me, I cannot return it! If you need it back in the future, I will return it a thousand times more. ”
With that thought in mind, he immediately ran into the room. After searching for a long time, he finally found a clean piece of silk. He carefully placed the blanket inside of his bosom before rushing out of the palace.
Rulan left the palace, leaving the inner courtyard. A black shadow flashed, and one of the Fiendgod guards landed before her.
“Demon Guard Liu Yuan greets you, Sir!”
Ruo Lan smiled. “Stand up. Walk with me. ”
“Yes, my lord!” Liu Yuan answered in a low voice.
It was dawn, and the scenery of the palace was beautiful. The only sounds that could be heard were the sounds of insects and birds in the morning. It was a peaceful scene.
Ruo Lan walked in front, and Liu Yuan followed her by a step.
In the past few years, the world had changed, and even the Eastern Continent had changed hands.
However, the distance between them had never changed.
The two walked in silence for a while before Ruo Lan stopped beside a flower bed.
“Time flies. In the blink of an eye, many years have passed.”
Ruo Lan smiled and turned to look at Liu Yuan. “I still remember you looking like a silly kid back then. I didn’t expect you to turn into a teenager in the blink of an eye.”
Liu Yuan exclaimed, “Master, is that true?!”
Ruo Lan smiled, looked at the flower beds, and said gently, “When we were at the imperial city of Zhao, the first time I tried to test you, I told you to go to the river and carry some stones.
“Everyone else thinks that you will be first from the bottom if you are too young. Who knew that you were the first child to bring the stone back.
“Since then, there have been six times where there was no food because of the last place.
“In the battle between the Sixth Heavenly Layer and the Black Fiend, you fought six Golden Core Realm experts alone. You were severely injured, but in the end, you still managed to kill them all with your sword … I remember all of this. ”
Liu Yuan’s face was filled with excitement. “My lord, I …” “I …”
Excited, he no longer knew what to say.
He originally thought that he was just an ordinary member of the Demon God’s Guard. Unexpectedly, Ruo Lan’s words revealed the deepest memories in his heart one by one.
“Every single one of you is like my younger brother. I will remember every single one of you growing up.”
“All these years, I’ve let Li Qianqiu force you to train. Have you ever blamed me?”
Liu Yuan suddenly kneeled on the ground, raised his head and said in a deep voice: “Without Master, there will not be a day like today! All these years, we have only felt grateful towards our master and did not dare to have the slightest bit of resentment towards him. ”
Ruo Lan smiled and nodded. “A child’s childhood should be innocent, romantic, and joyous. Yet, you all have been training all this time. I’m afraid that you all will blame me.”
“This subordinate would not dare!” Liu Yuan shouted.
“Get up. You and I are just casually chatting. Why are you kneeling?” Ruo Lan said gently.
However, Liu Yuan did not get up. He gritted his teeth and shouted, “Master!”
Ruo Lan was startled. “What’s wrong? Get up and talk. ”
“This subordinate has a request. If the lord doesn’t agree, this subordinate will not dare to get up!” Liu Yuan said in a deep voice.
“What is it?” “Tell me about it.”
Liu Yuan took a deep breath, and kowtowed towards Ruo Lan. “Please forgive my lord for his presumptuous words from Ji Du that day! He was just being quick with his words, he is definitely not intentionally disrespectful to our Lord! ”
Ruo Lan was stunned for a while before reacting.
She laughed and gently shook her head, “Why would I blame you for that? “I wonder what all of you are thinking …”
She slowly walked to the side of the road, gently caressed a dewy flower, and softly said, “In the eyes of others, I may be moody and cold, but no matter how I change, I am still only a woman in my heart. Since there are people who like me and love and care for me, I will naturally be happy. Why would I blame him? ”
As she spoke, she seemed to mumble to herself, and muttered: “Ever since I left that small village in the Thousand Buddha Mountain, I was alone. Those around me are either coveting my appearance or plotting against me.
