Chapter 314

Ji Lanchu cried like a pear blossom in the rain, pouring out all the fear in her heart to Gu Chen.

No matter how strong she pretended to be, she was still just a young girl.

At an age when she should have been naive, she had come into contact with the world of deception and deception. She had regarded the rise and fall of the royal family as her mission.

Huangfu Wuji's formidable forces had already pressured her to the point she was almost unable to catch her breath, and after she witnessed Huangfu Qingming's karmic luck with her own two eyes, she finally gave up the thought of resisting.

She was even able to come out of the Ghost Ruins alive, so how could she win against Huangfu Qingming?

She knew very well that she could no longer resist the Huangfu Clan. If she married the Huangfu Clan according to the Imperial Family's plan, not only would she not be able to stop their ambitions, but it would also speed up the Imperial Family's destruction.

She knew that her physique was special, and Huangfu Qingming only wanted her because of this. If she allowed him to get his way, then the threat of the Imperial Family would be even greater in the future.

Therefore, she had to commit suicide before her wedding. This was the only way she could fight.

Entering the Secret Land of Ten Thousand Dragons to meet Gu Chen was her last wish. He was one of the few good and sincere things in her life.

She just wanted to leave the first and last happiness to Gu Chen, but she didn't expect him to insist on fighting.

His persistence made her flustered. She was afraid that something had happened to him, so she was at a loss. In the end, her emotions exploded.

As he stared at the tears rolling down her beautiful face, Gu Chen now completely understood Ji Lanchu's feelings.

He reached out and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. His usual cold and murderous eyes were filled with a rare gentleness.

"Gu Chen, promise me, okay? Don't take risks for me. Live well …"

Ji Lanchu's voice was choked with sobs. She was already prepared to die, so she was not afraid at all. However, when she thought that Gu Chen might die because of her, her heart was filled with fear.

It turned out that liking someone would actually make one so fragile.

"Don't give yourself so much pressure. Leave everything to me, okay?"

Gu Chen said softly.

"Why don't you understand?"

Ji Lanchu cried.

"So what if he, Huangfu Qingming, is really a person with great karmic luck? He had luck, so I destroyed his luck. Since he has a Daoist physique, I'll destroy it! "

A cold light flashed in Gu Chen's eyes.

"He's not the only one who walked out of the Ghastly Ruins alive."

"So what if the HuangFu Clan flourished for a time? We watched them build a vermillion building, we watched them entertain guests, and we watched them collapse!"

Every single word of Gu Chen's was sonorous and forceful, carrying with it a monstrous killing intent!

Influenced by his emotions, Ji Lanchu calmed down a little.

Snuggling in the arms of the person she liked gave her an unprecedented sense of security.

"Are you really not going to listen to me?" she asked, choking with sobs.

"You should know that I have a blood feud with the Huangfu family. No matter what, I'll attack them when I return to Luoyang."

"Stop crying and give yourself another strand of hope. Allow me to sever the ill-fated relationship between you and Huangfu Qingming!"

Ji Lanchu was incomparably hesitant in her heart. She didn't want Gu Chen to take the risk, but Gu Chen's words clearly meant that he wanted to fight to the end with the Huangfu family.

Since he had already made up his mind, rather than sullenly committing suicide, why not fight to the end with him? Even if they died, they had to die together!

"Then what do you plan to do? The Huangfu family is so powerful, and my Imperial Father is standing on their side. Even if you can use the Celestial Court, it's impossible for you to go against them head-on. "

Ji Lanchu regained her intelligence.

"I didn't have much of a clue about this matter, but your matter made me think it through."

Gu Chen murmured, and a vein in his heart gradually became clear.

"Listen well, there's not much time left. We have to return before the Heavenly Worship Ceremony ends. After we return, do as I say … "

…

In the square of the Imperial City, two hours were almost up.

The huge illusion of the Kunlun Mirror was still floating in the air, and no one was seen coming out.

Emperor Yang Hong and the other members of the royal family were burning with anxiety, fearing that something might happen to Princess Lanchu.

At this moment, in various parts of the nine provinces, countless commoners also saw this scene through the Water Mirror Stone. Although they didn't know what exactly happened, they were all discussing it.

"Did something happen to the national treasure? It won't affect the fate of Middle Earth, right? "

"I didn't see Princess Lanchu. Will she be alright?"

The commoners were in fear. To them, the Heavenly Worship Ceremony was an extremely sacred event. Now that something had happened, they were naturally worried that it might be an omen from the heavens.

"This is another omen!"

In some cities, the followers of the Desolate God Sect in hemp clothes saw the situation and said excitedly.

"The Star of Misfortune, Chen Gu, who caused the Stars in Daytime, has also entered the Ten-Thousand Dragons Secret Ground. The royal family of Middle Earth invited a wolf into the house, which resulted in the punishment from the heavens!"

"Only by killing the Star of Misfortune and worshiping the Desolate God can the country be at peace and the weather be favorable!"

Such doomsday talk caused people to be even more anxious.

"Imperial Preceptor, Minister Huangfu, should we stop the operation of the Water Mirror Stone's array?"

On the square, Emperor Yang Hong worriedly asked Shen Xudong and Huangfu Wuji.

Today, something strange happened in the Ten-Thousand Dragons Secret Ground, and the little princess and the Celestial Court's Chen Gu had yet to come out. He was very worried that something might happen next.

If something happened to the national treasure, the Kunlun Mirror, and this matter was transmitted to all parts of the nine provinces through real-time images, it would greatly shake the people's hearts, and at the same time, cause some illegal forces to become restless.

"Your Majesty, we mustn't do this!"

Shen Xudong immediately shook his head. "Previously, all the commoners of the empire have already seen the abnormality of the Kunlun Mirror. If we hastily shut off the Water Mirror Stone now, it will cause even more panic."

Huangfu Wuji's eyes flickered, and he also nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty. If you shut off the Water Mirror Stone now, outsiders will think that something big happened to the royal family, and it will inevitably be used by people with ill intentions."

Hearing the two most trusted ministers say so, Emperor Yang Hong could only let out a sigh.

"If we don't shut off the Water Mirror Stone, when the time comes and Lanchu still hasn't come out, or if something strange happens to the Kunlun Mirror, how am I going to explain it?"

Right now, he was not only worried about his daughter's life and death, but also the impact of the whole matter.

Just when Shen Xudong was about to say a few words of comfort, a loud roar came from the Kunlun Mirror in the void!

For a moment, everyone in the square raised their heads!

Buzz —

Amidst the raging wind and scudding clouds, three figures were sent out from the mirror and landed on the ground.

"Lanchu!"

Emperor Yang Hong was pleasantly surprised, and he hurried forward.

Many officials and guests also gathered around, looking curiously at Princess Lanchu, as well as Gu Chen and the white ape who returned with her.

"What exactly happened in the Ten-Thousand Dragons Secret Ground?"

Emperor Yang Hong couldn't help but ask the moment he arrived in front of Princess Lanchu.

"Imperial Father, I don't really understand what happened, but I seem to have obtained a fortuitous encounter."

By now, Ji Lanchu had completely recovered her former beauty and wisdom, and she said with a smile.
