Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

Jiang Xue nodded solemnly. The situation was already urgent and Xiao Zhan had to go back.

She whispered, "I will come to you when my brother's condition stabilizes."

She understood that Jiang Chen had just ascended the throne and his foundation was not stable yet, so she could not leave easily at this moment. Xiao Zhan responded gently: "Okay." Then, he kissed her forehead gently, "Wait for me, I will bring you back in glory."

"The journey from Qian Kingdom to Beiling is long, so you must be careful on the road." Before leaving, Si Ruochen, Qiu Qianhuan and others also came to see him off. They looked worried and gave repeated instructions.

Xiao Zhan nodded gratefully.

Two carriages were ready, one for Yunyan and Chu Jingming, and the other for Xiao Zhan.

After Chu Jingming learned about Beiling’s situation, he said to him, “If you need help, send someone to notify us at any time.”

Xiyong borders Beiling, making it convenient to provide support.

"Don't worry, if you really have difficulties, I won't be polite to you." Xiao Zhan patted his shoulder and reminded: "Also, don't let Yunyan enter the palace for the time being."

He looked at Yunyan with concern in his eyes.

Chu Jingming nodded in understanding. He wanted to protect Yunyan from getting hurt again.

At this time, Jiang Xue came over with a belt she had sewn by herself. Although she was not good at sewing, she stayed up all night to finish the work. The belt was inlaid with a piece of her favorite turquoise.

"Take this with you." She handed the belt to Xiao Zhan, her eyes full of reluctance, "I will get it back when I come to find you."

She hoped that this turquoise, a symbol of victory, would bring him good luck.

After taking the belt, Xiao Zhan took off the old one and put on the new one in public.

Then, he gently pulled Jiang Xue into his arms, gave her a loving kiss on the top of her head, and whispered a firm vow: "I will wait for you to return."

Since Xiao Zhan left, Jiang Xue has come to the Five Poisons Sect almost every day.

Qu Ruchen saw her come in and asked, "Why are you here again? Aren't you going to help Jiang Chen?"

But Jiang Xue was not sad about the separation. Instead, she focused more on learning alchemy.

These days, with her help, Danshi's research has made significant progress. He said: "The affairs of the court are enough for my brother, and there are Zhou Lang and Bai Yunqi to assist.

If I can't even handle them, it will be useless for me to go. It's better for me to stay here and study alchemy with you, and maybe I can make some contributions to the Qian Kingdom."

He picked up the record book in front of him, which contained the experimental results she had compiled personally.

The pills they refine can not only prolong the lives of the alchemists, but also make their bodies stronger.

Now, they are thinking about how to make it safe for ordinary people to take this medicine.

Although this goal is beautiful, it is extremely difficult to achieve.

Because Danshi is born with a special physique, he can withstand the strong effects of medicine, while ordinary people's bodies cannot adapt to it.

If taken by force, it may lead to adverse consequences, even worse than the previous elixir.

Therefore, Jiang Xue and Qu Ruchen put a lot of effort into adjusting the proportions of medicinal materials.

"It would be great if Qu Xin was here." Jiang Xue said softly, putting down the book.

Qu Xin has a deep understanding of various exotic herbs and can always come up with unexpectedly effective methods.

If she were here, perhaps we could find a new solution.

After all, three people are wiser than two. However, "I don't know where that girl is now." When talking about this disciple, Qu Ruchen couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

Qu Xin, who has been clever and eccentric since childhood, can always cleverly avoid pursuers and his whereabouts are unknown.

At this moment, a believer rushed in, his face full of anxiety: "High Priest!"

"What happened that made you so panicked?" Qu Ruchen put down the book in his hand and turned to ask the believer.

"The power of Yinglong appeared on Yingxia's side!" the believer replied.

Qu Ruchen was shocked: "Hurry up and give the order for all the members to go to Yingxia to support Qu Xin."

The power of the eagle dragon is a forbidden skill that consumes a lot of energy. She had warned Qu Xin not to use it unless absolutely necessary.

Now that this news has come, it is obvious that Qu Xin is in trouble.

"You passed the power of Yinglong to Qu Xin?" Jiang Xue was also surprised. You know, the power of Yinglong is extremely powerful, almost equivalent to destruction.

In history, it was only used during Qu Shang's rebellion, and the price at that time was the life of the former high priest.

"Even if you dote on your disciple, there must be a limit! How can you easily teach her such a forbidden technique? You clearly know that her personality is not suitable for learning this trick." Jiang Xue returned to Qu Ruchen what she had said to Shen Yunsheng before.

She often laughed at Shen Yunsheng for doting on Jiang Xue too much, and she treated Qu Xin the same way.

Qu Ruchen smiled bitterly and looked at Jiang Xue firmly: "To me, no one is more important than my apprentice. Even if the world is destroyed, I don't care about others, but Xin'er, I am willing to protect her with my life."

From the moment she brought Qu Xin back to the sect, Qu Xin had already surpassed the status of a disciple in her heart and became an irreplaceable existence like her own daughter.

"You..." Jiang Xue looked at Qu Ruchen's unwavering eyes and sighed helplessly, "Qu Ruchen, I have always wondered who Qu Xin is to you. If it was just an ordinary master-disciple relationship, you would never have such deep feelings for him."

"She is my disciple, and even more so my life!" After leaving these powerful words, Qu Ruchen led a group of disciples from the Five Poison Sect to perform light skills and flew towards Ying Xia.

"I must tell my royal brother about this." Jiang Xue watched them leave and turned to walk towards the valley entrance.

After walking a few steps, she saw a familiar figure standing not far away, looking up in the direction where Qu Ruchen and others disappeared, with an elusive smile on his lips.

"Qu Shang." Jiang Xue would never forget that handsome yet dangerous face.

"Long time no see, Princess Changle." Qu Shang turned around and waved in greeting.

Facing his calmness, Jiang Xue felt alert, "You should be in Beiling, right?"

"It seems that you have indeed become much smarter, Changle." Qu Shang said with a smile, "Yes, I was in Beiling originally, but when I heard that the power of Yinglong had reappeared, I came back. I thought it was my sister who did it, but I didn't expect it was that girl Qu Xin."

When mentioning his sister, Qu Shang's eyes softened for a moment, and then were replaced by a strong obsession.

"Well, using Yinglong's power will come at a great cost. At best, you will lose all your martial arts skills, and at worst, your body and soul will be destroyed. I have long been dissatisfied with that girl. If she dies because of this, it will save me a lot of trouble." As he spoke, he easily caught the golden needle shot by Jiang Xue.

"Changle, I don't want to fight with you today. Don't show these little tricks in front of me." Qu Shang threw the golden needle into the tree trunk, and his eyes became more serious.
