However, before Hu Qing could reach Feng Ruqing…
Countless vines appeared and instantly wrapped around Hu Qing’s body.
The flames around Hu Qing’s body burned the vines, but it did not loosen. Like ropes, they tied him firmly.
Feng Ruqing was startled. She raised her eyes slightly, and her eyes followed the vine. Soon, she saw two figures, one large and one small…
Little Qing Han pounced in through the door. Her soft little body jumped right into Feng Ruqing’s arms.
Even her voice was soft and cute.
“Mother, I’m back!”
Ever since Little Qing Han had disappeared, Feng Ruqing’s heart had never been at ease. After she saw this little kid was safe and sound, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and raised her hand to hug the little girl in her arms tightly.
“You’re back…”
‘It’s great…
‘My Qing Han is safe…’
Immediately, Feng Ruqing raised her eyes and looked at the man who walked in from outside the palace.
The man was dressed in a white, clean, and elegant robe.
He was like an immortal, beautiful beyond the ordinary as if he was the only lotus on a cloud mountain.
“Nan Xian…”
The moment she saw the man again, she could not take her eyes off him.
The man’s gaze fell on her, so gentle and affectionate.
“Qing’er, sorry I’m late…”
Feng Ruqing shook her head with a light smile. “It’s not too late, because you’ve returned after all.”
‘As long as you’re back, then it’s never too late…’
“I promised you that I would return.”
Nan Xian stopped in his tracks. He scanned Feng Ruqing’s body before landing on her abdomen.
Recently, the young girl’s abdomen was already visible. Feng Ruqing was always protective of the child in her abdomen, not allowing her child suffer the slightest harm.
But…
The situation would have been difficult to handle if Nan Xian and Qing Han had not rushed back.
“Mother…” Little Qing Han cried. “Just now, this villain lied to me. He said that Mother is dead… I can’t live without Mother.”
Feng Ruqing turned to Qing Han and saw the tears on her face. She then turned to Hu Qing and stared at him coldly.
Boom!
With a single push, Hu Qing ripped the vines off. His eyes flashed with a cold light as he continued to rush toward Feng Ruqing.
Nan Xian raised his hand and pulled the Feng Ruqing into his arms. His sleeves lifted in the wind, and with a bang, powerful energy spread out from around the two of them, blowing the whole palace.
Those around them were even more unable to withstand this power and flew out backward.
Feng Ruqing was protected by Nan Xian in her arms so that she was not harmed in any way from this powerful force.
“You… “Hu Qing was livid.
‘Nan Changfeng… The Ninth Emperor’s dog back then is still following her even in this life!’
Hu Qing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled coldly. “I’ll let you go today, but I’ll settle the score with you in the future.”
Nan Changfeng’s strength had somehow increased quite a bit, and it would not do him any good if he continued.
Anyway, the time would come soon… And he would have plenty of opportunities to settle scores with them!
