If there was another time, he really didn't know what she would look like. Next time, would he see her covered in blood and already dead? He couldn't take any more risks, so from now on he He must protect Xing'er. He must stay close to her and never let her out of his sight. Otherwise, if something happens to her, he will not forgive himself.

Chang Ning continued to walk forward, his pace was a little unsteady, but his eyes were as firm as before. When Shen Lian woke up again, he found that Chang Ning was still carrying her. Didn't he take a rest? "Master, you Take a rest, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of here anytime soon." Now her safety depends entirely on him.

She was now a weak woman with no strength to restrain a chicken, and she was seriously injured. Chang Ning heard her speak and smiled, "Master, it's okay. Master, you have rested before, but you haven't woken up yet. "

Hearing his words, Shen Lian stopped saying anything. She didn't know whether his words were true or false, but she saw the sweat on his forehead falling drop by drop. She took it out of her sleeve He brought a handkerchief and gently wiped his sweat. "Master, if you are tired, just take a rest. We are not in a hurry."

Chang Ning said he knew, but he didn't think so in his heart. How could he not be anxious? Xing'er's injuries made him anxious. There was not even a single medicinal herb in this forest. He wanted to cure her. He could only use his own blood to sustain his injuries. If this continued, he wouldn't be able to hold on, and Xing'er wouldn't be able to hold on. Therefore, he must get out as soon as possible and return to the palace.

Only in this way could a steady supply of rare medicinal materials be provided, which would allow him to sustain himself. However, the weather did not go as planned. They wandered in the forest for two days and still could not find a way out.

On this day, the two of them were sitting under a tree to rest together. Chang Ning let Shen Lian lean into his arms, and he supported her like this. "Master, why are you so nice to me?"

After Chang Ning heard this, he chuckled and stretched out his hand to scratch her nose. "Xing'er, you are my only disciple. If the master is not good to you, who will be good to you?" What's more, she was the same to him before. OK.

Shen Lian's legs were crossed and her back was leaning against him. So Chang Ning could not see her expression and gaze clearly at this moment, and could only hear her soft voice. "Master, if I were not your disciple, would you still be so kind to me?" ?"

"You are not my apprentice, but you are also a lovely girl. Master will naturally like you and treat you well." Even if she is not his apprentice, she will be his good friend.

Shen Lian suddenly turned around, with extremely bright eyes. "Really, even if I am not your apprentice, you will still like me, right?" Changning was about to nod and say yes, but suddenly remembered what she said before. .The question she just asked seemed to be on point. Was she hinting at the possibility that he was in love with her?

Thinking of this, Chang Ning fell silent. He knew very well that there was only one person he loved in his heart, and that was Rong Qingxue. For Xing'er, he only cared and protected his apprentice, not the love between a man and a woman. Perhaps, he should Let's make it clear to Xing'er. Otherwise, Xing'er will be deeply in love and unable to extricate herself.

"Xing'er," Chang Ning thought for a moment and continued, "You know, Master has also told you. There is only one person that Master loves in this life. That is Qingxue, so Master hopes that you... ....”

Shen Lian couldn't wait to interrupt him. His evasive look made Chang Ning feel a little distressed. "Master, I know that you like Sister Rong. You don't need to say it anymore, I know." That tone was consistent with his words. The slight sadness in his voice made people feel distressed. Chang Ning felt sorry for this young apprentice, and even in his heart, she and Qing Xue were the same.

It's just that the feelings towards them are not the same.

One is the love and doting for his apprentice, and the other is the love for his lover. But now, his apprentice has also fallen in love with him. Chang Ning doesn't want to hurt her, but he can't respond to her because he knows , the response she wanted was not sympathy or guilt. It was pure love, but he couldn't give it to her.

"sorry."

Hearing his apology, Shen Lian smiled bitterly and said, "Master, you don't need to say anything, I understand everything."

Chang Ning's eyes also dimmed, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. For the first time, he didn't know how to comfort her. He was not good at this aspect.

On the other side, Rong Qingxue has led people to the boundary between the two races, and has been ordered by the Holy Order to lead a group of human elites and human troops. They are planning to enter the realm of the demon clan tomorrow. Together with the demon emperor, they will drive away all the intruders. Go out. Rong Qingxue is standing there now, listening to the people behind her reporting the battle situation in the past few days to her.

However, Xingying was unable to get in touch with the palace, which made him worried. Later, after the past few days, his injuries were much better. He was ready to sneak into the palace to find Mr. and His Highness. Even if he was caught Now, as long as you reveal your identity, you'll be fine. After all, there are many human masters guarding you in the palace.

With his cultivation and demon power, he might not be able to sneak into the palace smoothly. That night, Xingying was dressed in black and masked, and climbed up the palace wall with his knife. I thought that even if he could not reach the East Palace smoothly, At the very least, it should be possible to get to the vicinity of the East Palace. In this case, as long as the husband is asked to come out, he will be let in.

This was Xingying's plan, but as soon as he climbed over the palace wall, he was seen by someone, and under that person's gaze, Xingying did not dare to move.

Because that person is none other than the number one master of the human race. His strength and cultivation are still above Mr. How could he be here? Didn’t he follow the holy order and go somewhere else? How could he be here? Here, Xingying was a little stunned. After he was stunned for a while, he found that the other party was looking at him with a smile. Xingying was a little embarrassed, and after laughing twice, he said: "What a coincidence..."

It was so embarrassing that he was climbing over the wall and was caught red-handed. Is there anything more embarrassing? However, he still knew him. Xingying touched his forehead and sighed. He thought, after all, he was already on the wall. Well, instead of retreating which would be more embarrassing, it is better to go in first. Xingying turned over and stood inside.

The white shadow also came down. Under the moonlight, the white shadow looked like a god. Not only was he the number one expert in the human race, but his appearance and grace were also first-class. I don’t know how many women in the capital have been harmed. , he is lovesick. Unfortunately, he has always kept himself clean. He seems to be as warm as a spring breeze, but in fact he is very measured. It can be said that he is gentle but distant.

Xingying bowed her hands to him and said, "I'm really sorry. I wanted to come to see His Highness, and I didn't mean to break into the palace. I hope you, Your Majesty Haihan, will let me in to see Your Highness."

The man was holding a white long sword. He was holding the sword and looking at the reckless young man with a smile. "General Xingying of the Demon Clan, you are here to see Princess Nan Xing, but she is not in the palace."

"How is it possible that His Highness is not in the palace? I clearly heard from people in the Holy Lady's residence that His Highness was brought back to the palace by Mr., I mean His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Xingying suddenly became anxious and stepped forward, before him

Stand still in front of me.

"However, Princess Nan Xing is indeed not in the palace. It seems that she disappeared suddenly. His Highness the Crown Prince has already led people to look for her, but she has not returned for a few days. General Xingying, why not go outside the city and look for her." After listening to his words,

Xingying immediately turned around and left the palace without any suspicion. When the young man in white saw it, he couldn't help but shake his head in amusement.

He is really impatient, so he is not worried that he will lie to him. However, he did not lie. He does not know where Princess Nanxing and His Highness the Crown Prince have gone. They have not returned for so long. The young man in white stood there for a while.

, and flew away.

Xingying was outside the city and had not been found for a long time. But the palace, or the Holy Emperor, was anxious. His long-lost son was finally found. After a few days of not recognizing him, he disappeared. Those who were with him

The guards who went out of the city together didn't know where he had gone. His Majesty had sent many people out of the city before, but there was still no trace of the prince.

So, the Holy One finally gave the order to send experts to look for the prince. But this time, the team led by the top expert of the human race went out of the city to look for the prince. Shen Lian didn't know that they were already looking for them outside.

As for Chang Ning, since the last time he declined Nan Xing, there has been silence and depression between them.

Shen Lian remained silent. When Chang Ning spoke to her, she only responded occasionally. There were no unnecessary words at all. There was no smile on her face anymore. Even though she was feeling unwell and coughing all the time, she kept suppressing it.

, and didn't tell him until Chang Ning discovered it on her own. Anyway, no matter how Chang Ning tried to comfort and comfort her, Shen Lian remained silent.

Chang Ning could feel that Nan Xing was becoming more and more indifferent to him. If they hadn't been trapped in the forest, she would have left him long ago. Of course, now that she was in poor health, she couldn't walk far.

Otherwise, Chang Ning felt that even if he couldn't get out, Xing'er would try to avoid him. However, he really couldn't respond to the response she wanted. He cherished Xing'er, and she was very important to him. But, then

It was a different emotion. It was not the emotion Xing'er wanted. Chang Ning was helpless. After seeing her silent back, he didn't know what to say.

However, today was the day for her to drink blood. Chang Ning had already found a broken bowl in the forest, wiped it clean, and filled most of the bowl with blood. He took the bowl of blood and walked towards her. Shen Lian heard his words

I just don’t know how to deal with him. Does he really have no feelings for Nan Xing at all?

If this is really the case, her mission is really long and arduous.

She was sighing in her heart, but there was a look of indifference on her face. When she saw him appearing in front of her, especially when she saw the bowl of blood, Shen Lian suddenly felt upset and angry. Since he doesn't love her, why bother?

For her, how can one let go of this? Besides, she can't let go, it's really sad. Thinking of this, Shen Lian's expression became colder.

When looking at him, it was like looking at a stranger or an enemy.
