Right now, he could no longer control his emotions. Again and again, he lost control of his emotions, causing him to lose the patience to make her act arrogantly.
Ji Tian Ning didn't want to waste any more words with Huo Ni Lin and directly waved the silk handkerchief in his hand. A strange fragrance drifted over.
The Flaming Scales' body suddenly disappeared. With a twist of its wrist, it was already tightly grasped in its hand. A sharp pain came from his wrist, but the reverse scale immediately let go of Ji Tian Ning's hand and shook it.
”Slut, what did you use to assassinate me?”
His hand was burning with pain, as if it had been burned by boiling water or flames. His gaze fell on Ji Tian Ning's sleeve, but he didn't notice anything strange.
A trace of a smile rippled across Ji Tian Ning's lips. She had used some sort of medicine on her sleeve. After coming into contact with it, she could feel the pain of being scalded, and the pain would continue for a period of time.
”Your majesty, do you think I won't be fortified after eating you?”
A cloud of pink dust exploded. She didn't believe that the reverse scale could dodge it once, or even a second time.
Ji Tian Ning had already taken the antidote from the pink dust cloud that shrouded their bodies, so she didn't mind. After releasing the knockout powder, she quickly retreated. She did not retreat towards the door, but in a different direction.
Indeed, in the hazy dust, a red figure appeared at the door. Fire Reversal rushed to the door but did not inhale the mist. However, his body was still covered in dust.
He blocked the door and turned to look into the room, his eyes blurring and his body swaying.
Ji Tian Ning did not move. Even if she did not inhale the incense, it would still enter her nose and skin, slowing down her movements. She didn't believe that the reverse scale couldn't stop breathing.
Huo Ni Lin walked out of the room and breathed in the fresh air outside. His body was still shaking. He didn't want to be controlled by Ji Tian Ning. He angrily stared at the gradually dissipating dust in the room.
”Lowly servant, you dare to plot against me? Do you not want to live?”
The room seemed to have lost the sight of Ji Tian Ning. It seemed as if Ji Tian Ning had disappeared along with the dust cloud.
He was shocked. It was so difficult for him to catch her and let the kitten return to his embrace. Did this kitten really know some sort of magic that could disappear with the dust?
He walked into the room, inhaling the remaining fragrance of the incense as his body swayed. He wanted to go out again, but his legs went soft and he couldn't help but fall.
After a long while, Ji Tian Ning appeared from the room. When the dust in the room dispersed, she called for someone to carry Huo Ni Lin onto the bed. After she injected the fire reverse scale pill, she left the pill behind.
”Wu De, open the needle after two hours and let the imperial physician do the work. ”Give this pill to him and prepare another room for me. I want to rest.”
”Esteemed Empress, the emperor's illness has been in flux, but esteemed …”
Ji Tian Ning's cold eyes stared at Wu De. Wu De hastily bowed and said, ”This servant obeys. Servant, clean up the room next door and send Empress to rest.”
He understood that Ji Tian Ning deeply hated the Inverted Flames Scale. It was already not easy for her to use a technique to heal the Inverted Flames Scale, so he didn't force her and ordered her to clean the room for him.
Ji Tian Ning walked out. She did not want to stay here any longer.
Hateful Sky's body outside was still burning, but the flames had already died down. His body was charred black and was slowly disappearing.
”Wu De, when his body is completely burnt, pack up his remains and ashes and bring them over to me.”
”Yes, Empress.”
Ji Tian Ning was unwilling to look any further. She turned her head and walked into a room to the side and sat down facing the wall. Waves of pain came from the bottom of his heart. He couldn't help but lie down on the bed and curl up his body.
Pain, endless pain. Hateful Sky's perfect face continued to sway in front of her eyes. His infatuated eyes stared at her in a daze.
Reaching out her hand, she took out two glass beads and tied them together with a thread around her neck. The icy cold seeped into her skin, causing her body to tremble. She would never see his charming eyes and handsome face again.
She could no longer nestle in his embrace, breathing in the fragrance of the incense that made her feel at ease.
”Tian Tian …”
His heart twitched, he felt an endless chill, and tears soaked his pillow. When she lost him without him, she realized how important it was to her to be free from Hate.
Love had sneaked into her heart unknowingly.
All of a sudden, she sat up, hastily wiped the tears off her face, walked to the door and called out, ”Wu De, someone call Wu De over.”
Her words were no longer polite, and now she didn't need to fear anything. The departure of Hateful Sky had filled her with anger.
Someone hurriedly informed Wu De, and Wu De ran over and bowed, ”Your Highness, welcome this servant. What orders do you have?”
”Where is Le Tian? Did you also kill Le Tian? ”
”Reporting to the Empress, Le Tian has been brought back. He is currently locked up in the woodshed, waiting for the Emperor's punishment.”
”Alright, if anything happens to Le Tian, don't look for me to treat your majesty again in the future. I won't allow Le Tian to be harmed at all. Tomorrow, I want Le Tian as my assistant. ”
Wu De silently bowed for a moment, then bowed again and said, ”This servant understands. Please rest early, Empress.”
Ji Tian Ning turned around and returned to his room. A blue-green flame mixed in with the red flame flashed past his eyes. Her heart involuntarily trembled. She did not dare to turn back.
