Shen Rongyu lowered her eyes, and continued to slowly wipe the Buried Snow Sword in her hand. The white silk satin stroked the Buried Snow Sword, and wiped the sword until it was as clear as a mirror.

He was aware of the dangers around him, but Ji Qingzhuo didn't. He raised his eyes and glanced at Ji Qingzhuo, the girl was still dumbfounded.

Ji Qingzhuo was thinking about her own affairs. She didn't think Meng Yaolan's appearance was anything strange, so she held a paper lantern in her arms, gently caught a few firefly wings and put them in the lantern, Seal it, and such a bright, flameless lantern is ready.

Sensing Shen Rongyu's gaze, she handed him the firefly-winged lantern in her arms: "Xiaoyu, here you are."

Shen Rongyu took it, and Yingchi stayed in the lantern obediently, not thinking of running away.

He really wanted to kill Ji Qingzhuo that night, but after giving up in the end, the thought that came to his mind was not a joke.

Ji Qingzhuo has been following him like this, and the future will be more painful than death. She is willing to be a moth, and if she insists on fighting the fire, she will burn herself to death sooner or later.

So Shen Rongyu said: "After the candle moth is resolved, you go back to Xuanyunzong."

"Does Xiaoyu want to go back too?" Ji Qingzhuo started fiddling with the next lantern again, without raising his head, he just asked casually.

"I want to track down the evil aura that Elder Ye asked me to investigate." Shen Rongyu lied.

"I..." Ji Qingzhuo's hand stopped, and she began to worry again, because she left Shen Rongyu, the system would start to trouble her again.

Shen Rongyu closed her eyes, and said lightly: "Zhuo Zhuo doesn't have to be so clingy."

Ji Qingzhuo's fingers hooked the thread wrapped around the gauze, and a firefly wing flew out and landed on her fingertips.

She knew that she was weak and useless, Shen Rongyu was just a burden to take her with her, it was a great mercy for him to take her for such a long time.

But...but...she opened her lips silently, she didn't want to cling to Shen Rongyu herself, aside from the requirements of the system, since she said she wanted to protect Shen Rongyu at the beginning, she would naturally fulfill her secretly set one-way promise.

Ji Qingzhuo has a small world in her heart, now that she has enclosed Shen Rongyu in, does he... want to leave now?

She would not keep him, so she just lowered her head and responded softly: "En."

Shen Rongyu put the Buried Snow Sword into its sheath, and the sword made a clanging sound.

The past few days have passed peacefully. Since Meng Lian was in Xuedu, even if Heiying wanted to visit Ji Qingzhuo again, he did not dare to enter the palace again. Because he is a surviving demon from the era of desolation, he is too cautious.

The lantern festival prepared by Ji Qingzhuo was held as usual, and the candle moth also appeared in the lantern festival. She dressed herself up well, put away her terrifying tentacles, and put on a brightly colored robe over her gray-white eye robe. The robe, which makes her look like a normal human woman.

And the emperor of the Liang Kingdom also appeared. He was still very young and handsome, with a gentle dimple on his lips when he smiled, which weakened his arrogance as an emperor and made him appear more approachable.

Candle Moth stood behind him, covered her lips, and smiled: "This lantern is pretty well made, is it Firefly Wing?"

She held an escaped firefly wing in her hand and looked at the light shining in her palm.

Ji Qingzhuo and Shen Rongyu stood behind the crowd, looking at the bustling scene in the palace, they were very quiet here, out of tune with the bustle in the distance.

"Is this considered Chinese New Year?" Ji Qingzhuo stood beside Shen Rongyu and asked softly.

"Yes." Shen Rongyu held the sword with a calm tone.

He seemed to remember something, and asked her, "Did Zhuo Zhuo celebrate the New Year before?"

"It's been two years." Ji Qingzhuo said that during the Chinese New Year, she would also cut some beautiful window grilles by herself. Of course, her eyes can't see red for a long time, so she couldn't cut too many, so she just pasted one or two on the window , also counted as a year.

She lived almost the same every day, whether it was a holiday or not, there seemed to be no difference.

Shen Rongyu said, "I haven't."

Ji Qingzhuo leaned to the side, and she got closer to him: "Xiaoyu, hasn't this happened?"

She fumbled in the small purse hanging around her waist—she hadn't used this convenient space kit since entering the palace, but she used it today because the things she brought were really inconvenient to carry.

Ji Qingzhuo took out a food box - at this time, the dignitaries at the lantern festival had already taken their seats and began to eat the dishes rewarded by the Emperor Liang.

"Look, dumplings." Ji Qingzhuo opened the food box, and there were neatly packed delicate dumplings inside, made by the imperial chef in the palace, and every pleat of the dumplings was perfect.

"Eat." She pushed the box of dumplings towards Shen Rongyu, as if coaxing the child.

Ji Qingzhuo ate in the kitchen by herself, these were packed for Shen Rongyu, she was not too hungry.

She always wants to share something with Shen Rongyu, because she has nothing around her to share with.

Shen Rongyu took the food box, picked up the chopsticks, and ate a few pieces, he asked: "Will Zhuo Zhuo eat?"

"When I watched them serve the food in the kitchen, I had already eaten." Ji Qingzhuo, as the person who planned the lantern festival, had to ensure that every link was correct, so even when the food was served in the imperial dining room, she had to go and see it in person Look.

Shen Rongyu ate a whole box of dumplings—since he and Ji Qingzhuo left Xuanyunzong, he ate more and more food in the mortal world, and Ji Qingzhuo stuffed it for him, and he wanted to eat it with Ji Qingzhuo, After all, they all have something to do with Ji Qingzhuo.

"During the first Chinese New Year, there were so many people around." Ji Qingzhuo looked at the crowd in the distance and said softly, "Although I was scared, it seemed quite lively."

To Ji Qingzhuo, the crowd is just proof of her existence.

"Too many people is not a good thing." Shen Rongyu's voice was still calm.

He thought of something, so he stretched out his hand to hold Ji Qingzhuo's wrist: "The candle moth is not here, go to the Candle Palace to have a look, if there is a deal with the emperor of the human race, then the formation of the deal and transshipment must exist, let's go check it out .”

Ji Qingzhuo looked at Candle Moth in the center of the crowd. The girl had a cold and ruthless arc on her lips, and she smiled sweetly at everyone who saluted her.

On the contrary, the Emperor Liang beside her was even more human-like, even turning his head to look at her with tender eyes.

As I said a long time ago, with the IQ and image of a human being, the demon will have trouble sooner or later.

Shen Rongyu tightened her grip on Ji Qingzhuo's wrist, he was about to lead her out of here, but at this moment, there were footsteps outside the hall.

The patriarch of Lanli's family in the hall stood up, bowed and said to Emperor Liang, "Your Majesty, today I want to introduce two people for you."

"The evil spirits in the palace are in chaos. You have been bewitched by the evil spirits for a long time. Now the Meng family in the south has come to the fairy head, who can slay demons and eliminate evil spirits." The head of the Lan family said respectfully.

Meng Yaolan and Meng Lian walked into the hall together. They did not hide their monkish aura, and when they appeared in front of everyone, they were surrounded by awe-inspiring aura.

"Your Majesty." Meng Yaolan did not salute, but nodded to the Emperor Liang, "I came here this time to capture this candle moth."

Zhu Mo looked at Meng Yaolan and grinned again, the two round buns on her temples turned slightly, she showed no fear.

"Arrest?" Emperor Liang asked, "The people from Yunzeyu, come to our territory of Liang to arrest people?"

"Not human." Meng Yaolan corrected him.

"The sect of cultivating immortals has no right to interfere with our country of Liang." The emperor said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, I know you are bewitched by evil spirits." Meng Yaolan's tone was still gentle, as if coaxing a lost animal, "It's nothing, we can take our time."

"Please leave." Emperor Liang's tone was blunt.

"Your Majesty, this is the honored guest of my Lan family." The head of the Lan family knelt down on the ground, and begged again, "I don't have any malicious intentions, and let them stay in the palace and make a decision, how about it?"

As soon as he made a sound, the patriarchs of the other five major families also knelt down, and they all begged the emperor of Liang Guo that Meng Yaolan had already communicated with him before coming.

Different from Ji Qingzhuo's slow and devious approach, her actions are to control the whole situation, push people to the desperate situation that they have to agree to, act resolutely and resolutely.

If Meng Yaolan wanted to stay in Xuedu Palace, even the Emperor Liang would not be able to drive her away.

As a result, in front of the five great families kneeling down, the Emperor Liang raised his eyes and only glanced at Meng Yaolan, his words were still cold: "Please leave the palace, two elders."

"Your Majesty, you seem to have been bewitched by evil spirits. Could it be... that you have already made a deal with this candle moth?" Meng Yaolan knew that if the candle moth had made a deal with the emperors of the two countries, then his soul must be the nourishment of the candle moth, then She has no need to respect him.

Emperor Liang raised Candle Moth's wrist, his tone was still calm: "Let's see if her energy has been drawn away and burned?"

This...Meng Yaolan probed, and the candle moth did not lose much vitality...It seems that they haven't reached a deal yet.

This was an unexpected situation for her. She was prepared that Emperor Liang had already made a deal with Zhu Mo, but if not... As a family of cultivators and righteous sects, they naturally wanted to reason, even if Liang Guo It's just that the small countries on the border of Yunliang must respect each other's independence.

"You two elders, can you leave?" Emperor Liang asked again, pointing his downcast eyes at the palace guards beside him, "Or, do you want to 'invite' you out?"

Meng Yaolan and Meng Lian left, and Ji Qingzhuo and Shen Rongyu witnessed all this in the dark.

"Candle Moth has a wound on her hand..." Ji Qingzhuo remembered the scar on Candle Moth's wrist. When Emperor Liang lifted her wrist up, the circled fingers just covered up the wound.

"This person is a monster, it's a bit strange." Shen Rongyu said in a deep voice.

From the very beginning, he felt that the relationship between the candle moth and the Emperor Liang was very strange. Ji Qingzhuo couldn't understand the emotion implied by the Emperor Liang when he looked at the candle moth, so he naturally saw it clearly.

Moreover, what caught his attention the most was the sentence Candle Moth said, "It looks familiar to him".

In this world, no one should remember his existence and appearance, Shen Rongyu thought so.

Standing beside him, Ji Qingzhuo gently tugged at his sleeve: "Xiaoyu, let's go and have a look."

She is also interested in the secrets behind Candle Moth, and...she wants to be among the top three in the school assessment, so Candle Moth cannot be killed by Meng Yaolan first.

Meng Yaolan killed the candle moth, that was for real... She didn't want such an ending.

So, she has to take the initiative.

Ji Qingzhuo had his own considerations in mind, so he and Shen Rongyu took advantage of the excitement in the palace and went to Candle Palace.
