Warming… the bed?

Instinctively, Helian Wei Wei knew that something was wrong with his sentence.

After all, she had once fallen into his trap.

For instance, she was previously asked to fulfill her obligations as a wife…

She thought about it carefully. What does it mean to warm each other’s bed?

If I win, he’ll warm my bed.

If I lose, I’ll have to warm his bed.

Then… what is the difference between winning and losing?

Helian Wei Wei was left speechless.

The moment His Highness agreed to engage in a friendly match with her, he already had the intention to trick her into his ploy.

With her arms crossed and her brows furrowed, she stared at the man who was standing beside her.

The enchanting curved lips were still hanging on his flawless face. As the sunlight shone on him, his face appeared as beautiful as the broken pieces of diamond. He slowly approached her and rested his lips on the back of her ears as he whispered, “Why? Do you regret now?”

Yuan Ming’s voice resonated across the hall, “The array has been resolved. However, the culprit is still probably at the Green Dragon Lake. Quit flirting with your man and head to the Green Dragon Lake immediately. We need to find out who’s the mastermind behind the entire agenda!”

Helian Wei Wei did not bother to correct Yuan Ming. She hopped out of the window and flew directly toward Green Dragon Lake.

Baili Jia Jue withdrew his finger. His gaze landed on the magical beast that was lying on the ground as he rested his left foot on its body leisurely…

“Pff!”

The little one, who carried a bottle gourd on his back, stood by the bank of the Green Dragon Lake. The corner of his mouth was stained with black blood. “Master, seemingly, the Demon-Transforming Beast has been killed. The man’s spiritual energy was too powerful. Before I could react, I…”

“I understand.” The man extended his hand to pat the little one’s head. He then replied in a comforting and warm tone, “Without the dead men mound, we still have our second plan. Moreover, I think that Emperor Murong’s troops are arriving soon. However, we can’t stay here any longer. We ought to leave now.”

As he spoke, the man opened the paper umbrella that he held in his fair hands before he walked into the dense fog…

Helian Wei Wei arrived in a hurry. Yet, she only managed to catch a glimpse of the blurry silhouette.

Without any hesitation, Helian Wei Wei hurled the item in her left hand!

A swoosh echoed.

Then, a gleaming silver knife was flung directly at the man’s back!

Helian Wei Wei heard a distinctive noise as his s.h.i.+rt was ripped open. Just then, a child-like voice cried, “Master!”

When she arrived at where the man stood a moment ago, she found nothing other than the bloodstain on the floor. Narrowly, they managed to escape within a fraction of a second.

Nonetheless, the man was an intelligent one.

Initially, she intended to injure him and locate him with his dripping blood from his wound.

Yet, other than the first puddle of blood she found, Helian Wei Wei did not see another drop of blood. It was evident that her opponent had seen through her tactic and defended himself impeccably.

A punctilious man made a tough enemy…

“With your current cultivation, you’ll never be able to defeat the man,” Yuan Ming materialized. Eyes agaze, he stared at the lake as the fog slowly dispersed, “The destruction of the array weakened his body. If you were to fight him during normal times, you’ll be at an absolute disadvantage.”
