"You've found out about Zi Linhua's sign, haven't you?" ask Emperor Zhun casually.
The atmosphere of the quiet and slightly gripping space, made Han Mi feel tense in her place. It was like an ornamental statue outside the palace.
After being silent for a while, Han Mi ventured to nod at a glance. Indicates that he understands this birthmark he has.
"Zi Linhua is a birthmark of a long-extinct descendant of the Hei’ clan. Drawing a purple lotus flower with a certain special line that slightly extends downwards, right around the back of the neck," explained Emperor Zhun, "as you know, Zhen also knew it, even though it's a history that's been buried for a very long time."
The terrible demon. Even so, I still did not want to be around him, Han Mi's inner self was full of determination.
"From now on, try to control your power. Although ordinary people cannot see it, but let no one suspect you or yourself who will bear it" Emperor Zhun said without displaying the slightest expression.
The black bead stared straight out the window. Thick cloudy clouds are seen starting to roll in the night sky, indicating that rain will fall in the near future.
Emperor Zhun got up from his seat, then turned to look at his wife who was still sitting quietly like a statue. "It is better that we return to the Palace as soon as possible" he said, standing still in his place, waiting for the reaction of the Wife before him.
Zhun Qiang Duyi was very strange. How ... why ... what the hell is this? His character in the comic should not have changed. His cruelty persists until he dies at the end of the story, but why—
"Stand or die?" The voice sounded quietly and without any expression implied in it. However, it managed to make Han Mi wake up and immediately stand up as ordered.
I pulled my words just now, he hasn't changed at all! jeremy Han Mi. His blue Netra looked in surprise at Emperor Zhun who was standing on the left. "Aah!" he shouted, then dodged a little in the opposite direction.
Emperor Zhun casually signaled for Han Mi to look out the window.
What's again? inner Han Mi was a little annoyed.
Han Mi who saw the gesture immediately followed towards the black bead was fixed. He was silent for a moment to see the clouds outside.
"You guys should come back soon," muttered Han Mi who then looked at Emperor Zhun, "but, I will stay here," he continued, then looked at the body of the boy lying on the bed.
Hearing that, the thin smile that was originally imprinted on Emperor Zhun's lips instantly disappeared. Replaced with a sharp gaze that seemed to be able to penetrate Han Mi's head. The room temperature suddenly felt lower than before.
Han Mi who sensed clearly the coldness started to touch her skin, immediately stepped slowly, approaching towards Lao Xue Yue.
"I have to look after her until she wakes up" Han Mi said slowly, but she had not yet reached near Lao Xue Yue, her hands were blocked tightly by the tall man.
"He will take care of her. You must return immediately, "Emperor Zhun said, pulling the arm until the owner faced him.
Han Mi looked at her husband in silence. No, it was not her husband, but rather Hwang Lien Tianba's husband. Silent for a moment, until finally he ventured back to speak.
"I'll stay here. After all, who would look after two little kids like them?" Han Mi again expressed her rejection.
Han Mi bravely jerked Emperor Zhun's hand, but his efforts were fruitless. Without saying anything Emperor Zhun immediately pulled Han Mi's arm to follow her forcibly.
"Bixie! Please let go of ben gong's hand," Han Mi said as she hurriedly followed the Emperor's big steps.
"So, now you've reused the word. Are you aware of your position?" emperor Zhun asked coldly, his feet steadily stepping towards the door in the room with hands dragging Han Mi like a pet.
"A—ah, ti—no not ... it ...," Han Mi stuttered. Aih! How can I use that word 'ben gong' again anyway?!
General Li, who saw the door open, immediately closed the door and followed the Emperor. Eh? What the hell is this? general Li asked inwardly. He stared strangely at the young man who was being dragged away by his Emperor.
Since when did Emperor Zhun want to come into contact with a stranger? Uh! I forgot, the answer is certain since, he even did it twice with the same person, Inner General Li while continuing to follow the steps of the two people before him.
Silence enveloped them. The feet keep moving forward. Taking them down the hallway after the passageway that was here, until finally meeting them with Physician Qing and Lao Bong Yue.
"Daren wants to go?" healer Qing asked looking at the two young men with one bodyguard who was walking a little quickly back there.
Han Mi who saw Emperor Zhun was only speechless and did not intend to reply to the old man's words, immediately decided to come forward to retaliate.
His hand was raised towards the front—right fist that met the left palm of—to give a hint of courtesy, although there was still Emperor Zhun's hand gripping his left wrist, Han Mi ignored him just like that.
"True Physician Qing. This master and I will return to the residence. Thanks for helping me out earlier. Oh yes, sorry to bother me again, this young man begged Physician Qing to keep Lao Xue Yue until he recovered. For the treatment payment, I have paid off after returning to shopping earlier." Han Mi smiled kindly to the old man.
Seeing that there was a hint of doubt on Physician Qing's face, Han Mi resumed her remark, "Tabib just calm down, just calm down, later there will be someone from this Daren who picked up Lao Xue Yue and Lao Bong Yue to return to their residence," Han Mi said as she pointed towards the tall man next to her.
"Well, if it's like that this Physician will keep it as you see fit." Physician Qing lowered his head while raising his hand just like Han Mi did earlier. Slowly lower it again.
After their conversation was over, Han Mi, Emperor Zhun and General Li who were standing at the very back gave their greetings to Physician Qing, before continuing his steps in a different direction to Physician Qing and Lao Bong Yue.
On the sidelines, Han Mi took the time to give a farewell wave to Lao Bong and a gentle smile rose on her lips, as well as the boy, he displayed his trademark grin as well as returning Han Mi's hand.
"Good with Physician Qing, yes," Han Mi's message in a soft voice.
Lao Bong who heard it immediately replied with an enthusiastic nod. Her feelings were currently in a happy state of being able to meet a person like Han Mi.
Lao ge, if only you had regained consciousness. You will also definitely feel the same as me, even though that uncle is a man, but he looks like a niang*.
Han Mi immediately displayed her right thumb towards Lao Bong, before they finally went away. At least he was in a cheerful state. Haah ..., inner Han Mi felt relieved.
Not long after, the three of them finally arrived at the entrance of the treatment hall. Emperor Zhun who wanted to open the door immediately stopped his movement.
His body peeked in place, sensing a familiar presence around him. It felt very thick and he felt that his position was not far from there.
He's right here. This time I should be able to capture him, Inner Emperor Zhun. "Li Jianjun, he's around here" Emperor Zhun said very seriously. His voice was so low, it sounded soft like a person who was whispering.
General Li who heard it grew silent, his Emperor spoke uncharacteristically and it made General Li stare intently at the back.
He speaks like that, meaning that the meaning is .... "Good Bixia," replied General Li quickly who then ran silently towards the back. Looking for another exit to find the whereabouts of the person the Emperor was referring to.
***
Just above the roof of the building opposite the treatment hall, two men wearing hooded robes were seen waiting in silence.
A man about 181 centimeters tall was seen standing while folding his hands in front of his chest. While the other man who was the shadow warrior of the man, was kneeling on one leg while continuously monitoring around.
His presence is thick, very felt behind the door. It makes me feel long, the inner man with the height of 182 centimeters.
"Prepare, I've felt it. However, there was the presence of a powerful figure next to him. This man .. I don't want to deal with him. After they come out, we must immediately keep our distance" said the man dressed in white hanfu who was double in a dark blue hooded robe.
"Good Daren." The shadow soldier who was kneeling with one leg next to him continued to monitor the situation down there.
Look around with alert. Even so, he still keeps a big question mark about who exactly the person who wants this Master to avoid.
"Zhun Qiang Duyi," murmured the man in the dark blue hooded robe, which instantly made his shadow warrior gasp in surprise.
What's up!? "Daren, isn't that ...."
"I told you to prepare. As much as possible we should avoid physical contact with him." His eyes were still fixed straight at the wooden door below.
He became wary when he saw that the door had opened slightly, and suddenly it opened completely to the point that Emperor Zhun and Han Mi were preparing to step out of it.
Ah, it turns out you are ... Hwang Lien Tianba, the inner man felt an incomparable relief.
Eyeballs that look so alluring with a sharp nose and sexy lips perfectly sculpted, and his firm jaw, plus a happy smile that appears to decorate his face, managed to make it look so stunning.
Now, he seemed to have come back to life, shortly after the man saw the woman who turned out to still exist in this world.
"We go," the dark blue-robed man ordered as he disappeared in the blink of an eye along with a gust of wind that came.
I'll pick you up soon Hwang Lien Tianba, the inner man.
Only leaving the air of his presence that began to fade carried by the gusts of wind that came after him again. Sweep it until it is not left.
