Gui Haoyuan saw the female official nod again, and his expression relaxed for a mont, but then he squinted, with a hint of doubt in his eyes as he looked out of the window.
He was deeply worried about the future of Extre East Ice City.
Your Majesty’s life expectancy is running out. Once Your Majesty passes away, how will Extre East Ice City protect itself?
If a change in the inheritance of the royal line occurs due to Your Majesty’s personal matters, leading to the city’s division, the situation would beco even more perilous.
But is he really going to take this step?
Doing such a thing would be a true betrayal.
And as for that trading partner, he can’t be trusted either—
※※※※
Six hours later, seven thousand miles south of Wang’an City, a man and a woman were swiftly traversing through the forest.
The man was Zuo Qingyun. He was about eight feet tall, with a robust build like an iron tower, and his entire body of muscle seed like forged iron.
He was moving at full speed through the dense forest, crashing through like a rampant bull. The branches he touched shattered instantly, pulverized by the Vigorous Force surrounding him.
Zuo Qingyun’s mind, however, wasn’t on the path ahead; he was looking at the woman on his shoulder.
The woman appeared to be around eighteen, with a delicate, straight nose, slightly pink cheeks, lips like cherries, and a face as crystal clear as jade.
She was sowhat petite, her height only reaching Zuo Qingyun’s chest, yet she had perfect proportions, slender and graceful, inviting affection.
Zuo Qingyun’s eyes were a bit dazed, even more so because it was unbelievable.
People would find it hard to imagine that the burly, strong, muscular White Tiger Marquis, who resembled a bear, had turned into this stunningly beautiful, sweet-natured, gentle girl perched on his shoulder today.
Zuo Qingyun suddenly felt that this marriage was not so unbearable after all.
He had thought he was pinching his nose and stepping into a coal mine, and that his future would be just like that; he never expected he had stepped into a cave full of gold.
When he used to play Pai Gow betting at the casino, getting a ’Supre Treasure’ wasn’t even a fraction of his current joy.
He really found a treasure—
"Why are you looking at like that?"
The White Tiger Marquis glanced over sideways, her bright eyes captivating, filled with charm and emotion, fitting for joy or anger.
When she saw the dazed look in Zuo Qingyun’s eyes, she couldn’t help but feel helpless, happy, and proud.
"Look ahead! Concentrate and sense the surroundings. If you want to look, wait until we’ve successfully escaped, then you can look as much as you want."
Zuo Qingyun reluctantly withdrew his gaze, focusing all his energy on perceiving the surroundings as the White Tiger Marquis instructed.
But his mind was still curious: "This appearance of yours now, did you cultivate so Secret Technique? Is it a bone-shrinking technique or disguise art?"
"This is how I originally looked. When I was young, I was the shortest in my clan. Only after cultivating the Innate Divine Xin Technique did I grow bigger and taller."
The White Tiger Marquis finished and let out a discontented ’hmph’: "Do you like like this? You n always judge by appearance."
Zuo Qingyun curled his lips, thinking, aren’t you won the sa?
Look at Chu Xisheng, how much the won in Wang’an City are obsessed with him now!
The portraits of Chu Xisheng have been cut out by many young girls and pasted on their walls.
Many Heavenly List Experts don’t get this kind of treatnt, just because of Chu Xisheng’s extraordinarily handso face.
He wore a foolish smile on his face: "Will you revert if you practice the Innate Divine Xin Technique again?"
"No, if I practice it again, I can smooth out the rough edges of my cultivation, from then on controlling it as I desire."
The White Tiger Marquis said this and pinched Zuo Qingyun harshly on the earlobe with her fingers: "Try talking nonsense again!"
In the past, if the White Tiger Marquis did this, Zuo Qingyun would have imdiately shaken it off forcefully.
Now, he had no resistance, allowing the White Tiger Marquis to tug his ear around in circles: "Speaking of business, didn’t you say soone inside the White Tiger Hall has their eyes on you, so why are those chasing us now all Black List fugitives?"
"How do you think they got the information?"
The White Tiger Marquis sneered coldly, her eyes mocking: "They won’t dare to reveal themselves until they fully understand our situation and are completely confident."
Zuo Qingyun was thoughtful: "Then why not seek help from the Beichen God Marquis?"
The White Tiger Marquis’s gaze flickered, her eyes growing colder: "I originally considered seeking the Beichen God Marquis’s help if necessary, but not long ago, I discovered that the Beichen God Marquis isn’t that reliable either.
Earlier, I deliberately leaked false information to the Beichen God Marquis, and yet others found out. The problem is, I only shared this information with the Divine Marquis.’
"Why is this? The Beichen God Marquis is the master of the Six Gates. What does he gain by plotting against you?" Zuo Qingyun couldn’t help but feel alard.
Even the Beichen God Marquis is an enemy of the White Tiger Marquis?
It was evident how perilous their situation was.
"Perhaps it’s because my constitution is unusual. My underlying bloodline is neither White Tiger nor any of the White Tiger Five Sons, Zheng, Ning, Chang, Jiao, Jue, but Biao."
In the ancient legends, Biao was the third son of the original White Tiger, but as the White Tiger faced powerful enemies and was besieged by beasts, Biao’s fetal body was damaged during the pregnancy. It was deed a stillbirth upon birth and had to be abandoned.
However, Biao struggled to survive, growing in a purgatory-like environnt, often starving to eat dry leaves, withered grass, and the corpses of other beasts, gnawing on dirt and rocks, drinking foul and dirty water, constantly bearing old and new scars.
Biao grew through countless hardships, becoming the most brutal and fierce existence in the White Tiger lineage, surpassing its mother in combat prowess.
It not only beca an arch-enemy of the White Tiger but also devoured its five brothers one by one. In so ancient era, it pushed the descendants of the White Tiger Five Sons, Zheng, Ning, Chang, Jiao, Jue, to the point where they had almost nowhere to go.
