Chapter 79: The End (Part Three)
to offend him. Even the Emperor has to give him three points of respect!" 。But, old man, I truly don't understand. While your apprentice may have some beauty, she isn't exactly breathtakingly stunning...“The Li family and the Ling family…” Qin Luoyan murmured, but she suddenly understood the relationship between them. Yes, the three hidden families had existed for long enough that they even began to manipulate the succession of the imperial family. Therefore, there must be many people who wanted to remove the power of the three families.”
She suddenly understood why Fu Zimo, a discarded child of the Fu family, could step by step ascend to his current position. It wasn't just because he was intelligent and cunning; perhaps, he also had many like-minded allies. The forces within each country probably worked behind the scenes to eliminate the three hidden families for today's event.
Now that I think about it, it's no wonder the news from the Rong family didn't reach the team. Perhaps there are many forces interfering here. Otherwise, even if they stopped the Rong family, it would be impossible to simultaneously stop both the Li and Ling families. And these forces actually intercepted the news channels of all three hidden families at the same time.
At first, she thought her plan was flawless. Now, she can't help but feel a chill of fear. If any news of a change in the Rong family had reached this team, no matter which family it came from, they would have discovered something unusual about this treasure hunt. And then...
Her spine tingled with a wave of cold, and she couldn't help but feel drenched in sweat. She hadn't planned everything carefully enough. If anything went wrong at all, she, Nie Wan, and Xiaolong would be killed instantly among these experts from hidden families.
Seemingly sensing her emotional shift, Fu Zimu gently stroked her back, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, aren't I"
Yes, and him too.
Qin Luoyan couldn't help but smile knowingly, she couldn't help but raise her head, tiptoe and kiss him again on the chin. His stubble was already clean-shaven, and his skin even had a faint scent.
Maybe this is love at first sight, now she thinks he's perfect no matter what.
Suddenly, she couldn't help but sniff again, as if confirming something. She asked in surprise, "By the way, wasn't the old man who grilled meat for us you" Qin Luoyan had always found that old man strange, but she couldn't explain why. It wasn't until just now when she smelled this faint fragrance that she had a bold guess.
Fu ZiMo's lips curled into a fox-like smile, he didn't answer the question right away, but asked instead, "Why ask that"
Qin Luo'yan rolled her eyes at him, "Don't pretend, I know it was definitely you."
"Oh How do you know that for sure" Fu Zimu looked at her with a curious expression.
Qin Luo'yan reached out triumphantly, her fingertips poking his chin. "You smell...like roasted lamb." Although it was very faint, she still caught a whiff of it.
Fu Zi Mo listened, and immediately let out a hearty laugh, his finger pressing against her nose. "You, you're truly a mischievous one."
His reaction could be considered an acknowledgement of Qin Luoyan's guess.
"Well then, you just watch me from the shadows and don't even give me a hint. Your Highness, is this amusing to you" Qin Luoyan was a little resentful, rarely acting coquettishly with him.
Fu Zi Mo, however, pulled her into his embrace and pressed her against his chest. "Alright, after everything is settled, you can punish me however you like. Right now, shouldn't we figure out how to get out of here first"
Don't you guys know to go out first Instead of showing off your affection here all the time
The little dragon beside him was speechless, a look of helplessness on his face. He had always imagined his master as cold and domineering. He would never have associated the man cuddling with the woman before him with his master if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes. What's more, this wasn't some romantic scene under a moonlit sky. It was a special occasion.
Qin Luo'yan nodded, and then withdrew from Fu Zimo's arms. She wanted to check the mechanism on the stone slab, but her gaze fell on Li Yunfan's ankle, and her brows furrowed unconsciously.
"I'll take care of it." Fu Zimu said calmly, then squatted down.
He took out the golden ointment from his bosom and carefully sprinkled it on Li Yunfan's ankle. He then tore off the hem of his robe to bandage him.
Qin Luo Yan watched his actions, but her heart warmed. She knew Fu Zi Mo's character. He was so proud, he wouldn't even personally treat someone's wound for anyone, let alone give them a good face depending on his mood, but he did just that. She knew he was repaying Li Yunfan's favor.
"For your efforts in fiercely protecting this King's wife just now, and considering that you are the direct lineage of the Li family, I can spare your lives." Fu Zi Mo said lightly as he bandaged Li Yunfan's wound.
Li Yunfan, who had previously looked as lifeless as ashes, gradually focused his gaze upon hearing those words. His eyes finally cleared, and he swallowed hard, stammering, "You, you said what"
“As you have just heard, why does this king need to say it again” Fu Zi Mo raised an eyebrow. After he had finished treating Li Yun’s wound, he took out a silk handkerchief and carefully wiped his hands. “When your three families entered the treasure trove of Gengjin Spring, our people had already gone to the ancestral homes of your three families. Now… it should be almost done. According to this king’s intention, eradicating them all would definitely eliminate future troubles, but since you have given up a leg to protect this king’s wife, then this king will let you off this time. As for whether you will have the ability to seek revenge from this king in the future, that is your own business. You traded one leg for the lives of the Li family's direct line, you don’t lose.”
Fu Zi Mo's words not only shocked Li Yunfan to the point of being speechless, but Qin Luoyan was also momentarily stunned into silence.
Fu Zimu's forbearance was indeed for this day To attack the three great families at the same time, he is really bold. The victor takes all, and the loser is eliminated. Standing in his position, he must inevitably kill all the direct descendants of the three great families to be worry-free, but, for her, he is willing to take the risk of being avenged in the future
Qin Luoyan thought this way, her eyes involuntarily reddened. He always did this, making the most difficult decisions for others with ease.
Li Yunfan's love for her, he proposed to her!
"What are you looking at me for Is there a flower on my face Or do you think we can last much longer in this cave" Fu Zi Mo turned his head to see Qin Luo Yan's moved and almost crying expression, he couldn't help but smile wryly, then added, "A wife's debt is a husband's duty, isn't it natural How could I let my woman owe favors to another man"
"Go ahead and be smug." Qin Luoyan retracted the moisture in her eyes, turning to walk toward the high platform.
She carefully felt her way around the stone on the platform, looking extremely focused. However, after a while, she stopped and turned back to Fu Zimu with a furrowed brow.
