Chapter 268 Skin-to-Skin Kiss
Chapter 268 Skin-to-Skin Kiss
"Brother Xiaorong, I know that I am not the woman you like now... but are you willing to wait for me? Wait for me for five years... No, no, three years will be enough... I can definitely become the woman you like..." Princess Tianning was still crying, her sobs swallowed up her words, so that Kang Xiaorong could not hear what she said next.
"Princess, have you ever thought that maybe I will change in three years... maybe you won't like me at all in three years." Kang Xiaorong always wanted to persuade Princess Tianning to give up on him, but the more he persuaded, the more Princess Tianning refuted.
"You won't change... Even if you change, I still like you... No matter what you become, I will still like you..."
"Princess..." Kang Xiaorong sighed and was ready to give up this meaningless argument. Because if they continued to argue like this, it would only make Princess Tianning more excited. Princess Tianning was injured, and excitement was not conducive to the recovery of the wound.
"Brother Xiaorong, don't worry..." Princess Tianning suddenly raised her head, "Maybe I can't wait for three years... I was just talking just now, maybe... I can't wait for three years..."
"Princess?" Kang Xiaorong felt that there was something abnormal in Princess Tianning's eyes. Her pupils were dim, like a blind person.
The next moment, Princess Tianning slowly closed her eyelashes, and tears were gently squeezed out of her eye sockets the moment her eyes closed.
"To die in your arms like this... is the greatest blessing from God..."
"Princess!" Kang Xiaorong was so frightened that he couldn't believe that Princess Tianning had died in his arms. He subconsciously tightened his arms, and then he felt that Princess Tianning's body in his arms was already scalding hot, as if it had just been thrown into boiling water.
"Princess? Princess?" Kang Xiaorong patted Princess Tianning's cheek nervously.
Princess Tianning did not respond.
Kang Xiaorong pinched Princess Tianning's pulse again, and only felt relieved when he felt the pulse was still beating.
Princess Tianning was not dead, but just fainted due to a high fever. If Princess Tianning's wet clothes were not taken off quickly, her condition would get worse. Kang Xiaorong didn't care too much, he grabbed Princess Tianning's clothes and pulled them out.
As soon as it was pulled, the clothes made a few "hissing" sounds and split along Princess Tianning's shoulders.
Large areas of skin on Princess Tianning's shoulders and chest were exposed to Kang Xiaorong's eyes without any cover.
Princess Tianning was so sick that Kang Xiaorong had no time to think about it, but after seeing this spring scene that he shouldn't have seen, he still felt dizzy. He suddenly didn't dare to move, just like a person who did something bad was suddenly stopped by a shout. The voice that stopped him came from his own mind. A voice suddenly rang in his mind: Kang Xiaorong, stop, stop.
He closed his eyes tightly and shook his head vigorously to get the voice out of his mind.
"Princess, I'm sorry..." He hardened his heart, put aside all distractions, grabbed Princess Tianning's clothes and pulled them apart.
There was another sharp "hissing" sound, and Princess Tianning's upper body was completely exposed.
Kang Xiaorong didn't dare to look at her any longer. He threw Princess Tianning's wet clothes at his feet, then quickly took off his own clothes and wrapped them around Princess Tianning.
"Princess?" Kang Xiaorong heard Princess Tianning's breathing gradually getting heavier and thought she had regained consciousness. However, after gently patting Princess Tianning's cheeks a few times, he discovered that not only did she not wake up, but she became even sicker. Every breath she exhaled was full of hot air, and she seemed to be in great pain and breathing very hard.
"Princess..." Kang Xiaorong had no choice but to hug her tightly. He looked up anxiously at the surrounding woods, hoping to see reinforcements. But the facts made him fall into despair again and again. Not to mention the reinforcements, even the sound of human voices could not be heard in the silent woods. Why was it so quiet? It was so quiet that he suspected that he was deaf.
So much time has passed, why haven't reinforcements found this place yet?
Princess, what should I do with you? ... Kang Xiaorong sighed in his heart and hugged the hot Princess Tianning in his arms.
At this time, the smell of blood in the air became stronger and stronger.
Kang Xiaorong and Princess Tianning were both injured, and although the bleeding had gradually stopped, the beasts with keen sense of smell had already smelled the stench in the wind. They came out in droves, searching the woods for the source of the bloody smell.
Soon, they found Kang Xiaorong and Princess Tianning sitting under a tree.
The clever beast saw that both men were seriously injured and had no ability to resist, so it approached them more boldly and surrounded its prey tightly.
Kang Xiaorong, who was worried about Princess Tianning's illness, suddenly heard a few rustling sounds coming from the bushes.
That sound was definitely not the sound of human footsteps!
Kang Xiaorong looked up suddenly, and saw one, two... countless dots of fluorescent green light slowly lighting up in the dark woods.
——It’s a pack of wolves.
Kang Xiaorong made a quick judgment, hugged Princess Tianning with one hand, and tightly grasped the hilt of the sword with the other hand - this was his only weapon.
A fierce battle is about to break out.

On the other hand, Red Fox and Ji Annie, seeing that there were no pursuers following them, found a secluded cave and hid in it temporarily.
At this time, half an hour had passed since they escaped from the palace. During this half hour, they had been running non-stop. Even the monsters had reached the limit of their physical strength.
The depths of the cave were very dark and damp, so they did not dare to go too deep.
Ji Annie sat down in a spacious place at the entrance of the cave, while the red fox curled up at her feet like a docile pet.
"Why are you taking me out of the palace?" Ji Annie asked calmly, staring blankly at the dark woods in the distance.
In Tianning Palace, if the red fox hadn't suddenly appeared and said to Ji Anni, "Let's leave here," Ji Anni would never have fled the palace. When the red fox said that, Ji Anni instinctively believed her, because the moment the red fox appeared, Ji Anni always had a very familiar feeling about her. It was as if she had known this red fox for a long time.
"Who are you..." Before the first question was answered, Ji Anni couldn't wait to ask the second question.
At this time, the red fox stood up, walked back and forth around Ji Anni's legs, and asked with a smile: "Don't you remember anything?"
Ji Anni shook her head. Ever since she saw the red fox, she had been trying to recall who it was. But until now, she still couldn't come up with an answer. Why did she feel like she had seen it before when she didn't know it?
When the red fox saw Ji Annie shaking her head, she didn't say much, but slowly closed her eyes.
At this time, a layer of strange red light slowly emerged from the red fox's body.
The red light continued to grow higher and larger, and finally turned into a human shape.
After the red light faded, a beautiful woman appeared in front of Ji Anni.
This woman is Yan Niang.
Ji Anni looked at Yanniang, her brows slightly furrowed. She felt that she knew this woman, but she couldn't remember who she was.
"It seems you still don't know who I am." Yan Niang sighed in disappointment after seeing Ji Anni's strange eyes.
She sat down next to Ji Anni, and the two of them looked out of the cave at the dark woods side by side.
It was so quiet at this time that even each other's breathing could be heard clearly.
"Then do you know who you are?" Yan Niang broke the silence and asked Ji Anni.
Ji Anni still shook her head. When Yanniang asked her this, her thoughts suddenly became confused. Many confusing fragments flashed through her mind, but she couldn't catch them. The fragments of memory were too messy and too complicated...
"Who am I?" Ji Anni hugged her head in pain and buried it deeply in her knees.
Yan Niang stretched out her hands, hugged her from the side, and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, I will tell you slowly."
Then, Yanniang told Ji Anni a very long story.
The story takes place a long time ago, long before the Holy Tianyou Dynasty was founded, and there was no imperial palace here at all.
The location of the palace was just a barren mountain, just like the one they were in now.
When the story happened, the site of the current imperial palace was also a barren sea of trees.
In the sea of trees, there is a very tall tree that reaches into the sky.
This tree is called the "Sacred Tree". Legend has it that through this tree, one can open the path to ascension to heaven.
Once every thousand years, the tree blooms with white flowers.
When white flowers bloom on the branches, the little demons practicing in the mountains will gather here, waiting to be granted the qualification to ascend to heaven.
This barren mountain is a paradise for trees and little demons, but occasionally humans will accidentally intrude.
One day many years ago, a human boy met a very beautiful girl under a tree.
But the girl was not a human being, but a little fox demon.
Perhaps from that unexpected encounter, the human boy fell in love with the fox demon.
From then on, he often went up the mountain to meet the girl under the tree.
They climbed trees together, picked flowers together, stepped on water together, and played together. They were very happy.
But happy days are always short, and time passes by in the blink of an eye.
The girl grew up and realized that there was a difference between humans and demons, and that it was impossible for them to grow old together.
She decided not to meet the boy again, but she didn't dare tell him that she was a monster, so she made a wish that would never come true - if the boy could flatten the mountain, she would marry him.
The boy was very sad, but he didn't say a word and left silently.
The girl looked at his receding back, thinking he would never come back.
But several years later, the boy finally came back.
At that time he was already an emperor and had his own dynasty. Despite everyone's opposition, he wanted to build the imperial palace here.
After five years, the hill where the sacred tree was located finally turned into a flat land.
On this flat land, a towering imperial city appeared.
The boy fulfilled the original agreement, but the girl did not show up to fulfill her original promise.
