More than twenty kilometers outside the city, it was filled with sugar cane.

The originally wild sugar cane was now grown on a large scale, harvested on a large scale, and even dragged along with the oxen and horses.

Along the way, Bing Lanyue discovered that all the ox-cart were heading towards the same direction, while Huo Feng was heading in the opposite direction.

Huo Feng only stopped after she arrived at a huge pavilion.

It was no longer that hot in the north, but at noon, the sun was still high in the sky.

Many of the people inside the pavilion who were resting during the summer were drinking tea in large bowls and talking about a year's harvest. Huo Feng and Princess Lianhua ignored the filth within and went in head first.

Everyone seemed to have gotten used to this. Only an old man walked up to them, and the rest of them started talking and laughing.

"Miss Huo Feng, this morning we have over a hundred carriages, as well as over three hundred ox carriages." The old man smashed his toothless mouth.

"Thank goodness you're suffering. Lotus, you stay here for the summer. I'll come pick you up later." Huo Feng could not wait and rushed to the castle.

Just as Princess Lianhua was about to get up, a few guards surrounded her.

"All of you, stay behind to protect the lotus flower. I can go by myself." Huo Feng's mouth revealed a slight smile.

If it was in the past, under special circumstances, Monarch Moli would think of ways to delay the Princess Lianhua, but today, many sects were arriving at the South Sea City in succession. They were all disciples and all of them were sect elders, so Monarch Moli had to go and receive them.

In an extremely short amount of time, Huo Feng could only order her men to look at the Princess Lianhua.

The moment Huo Feng left, Bing Lanyue quickly said, "Elder sister, follow her in a while and see where she has gone to."

With that, Bing Lanyue put on the bamboo hat and led the horse away.

Huo Feng's horse rushed over. Ru Zui also put on her bamboo hat and rode away.

The sound of the hooves gradually grew closer. Bing Lanyue supported her bamboo hat, and then caressed her horse's face, avoiding Huo Feng.

Huo Feng felt that the person in front who was pulling the horse looked very familiar, she couldn't help but take a few more glances, but she could only see the slightly tanned neck, and not the front.

Like a gust of wind, Huo Feng galloped past Bing Lanyue on her horse.

Bing Lanyue heaved a sigh of relief and slowly led the horse towards the huge pavilion.

With the sugar cane that covered the ground, the saliva in Bing Lanyue's mouth couldn't help but drool. She swallowed her saliva and walked towards the pavilion at a leisurely pace.

Inside the pavilion, Huo Feng's guards were staring fixedly at the Princess Lianhua, and did not notice that one of them had entered the pavilion on a horse.

The warrior gown worn by Bing Lanyue was the best proof, the few of them gave her a seat, and quietly brought her a bowl of cold tea.

In this pavilion, there were also people who were bitterly laughing while selling tea. They often encountered people dressed like this who walked into the pavilion to take shelter from the summer heat.

Bing Lanyue fumbled out a fingernail-sized chunk of silver and placed it on the table. Without saying a word or taking off her bamboo hat, she held a large bowl and took a shallow sip, then noticed the twenty guards staring at Princess Lianhua from the corner of her eyes.

After a long time, a cool wind blew, the thunder rumbled, and the thunderstorm arrived as scheduled. In a place like Qiongzhou, it would rain almost every day at noon, dispersing the heat.

The lightning array rain came and went quickly. Soon, the rain stopped and the people in the pavilion went out to do their work.

In such a large pavilion, only the twenty guards, Princess Xuelian, and Bing Lanyue, and even the tea sellers were left to work.

Bing Lanyue still sat there, not moving an inch.

The Princess Xuelian became a little interested and just as he stood up, the guards beside him were ready to follow. The Princess Xuelian rolled his eyes at the guards and said: "You guys don't have to follow, I won't go find Sister Huo. You guys go and watch them work."

The guards looked curiously at the man wearing the big bamboo hat sitting far away, and then looked at Princess Xuelian.

Princess Xuelian waved his hands as if he was shooing away flies.

Out of the corner of her eyes, Bing Lanyue saw the white-clothed female walking over. She was a little nervous, yet a little relieved and relaxed.

"My name is Snow Lotus and I have Tianshan Sect. May I ask what sect you are from?" Snow Lotus clasped her hands.

"Purple Clouds Sect." Bing Lanyue lowered her head, took a few gulps of tea, and then stood up. With her back facing the guards, she was about to walk out.

"Wait, sister, are you lost?" The snow lotus followed him.

Bing Lanyue untied the horse tied to the pillar, and then said: "Snow Lotus? Snow lotuses are not suitable for growing in the south of the Empire. "

Seeing the snow lotus, Bing Lanyue did not forget to turn around and fiercely glare at the guards that wanted to follow along.

"Elder sister, are you asking for South Sea City? I'll take you there. " Snow Lotus volunteered.

Bing Lanyue hesitated for a moment, then nodded her head and agreed.

The two of them held onto their horses, and turned around a corner, causing the guards to be unable to see anything. Bing Lanyue then asked: "Xue Lian, from the way you're dressed, it seems like you're not from the martial arts world. Why are you here?"

Snow Lotus pouted, shook her head, and did not answer.

"Meeting each other in the martial arts world is fated, this is for you." With that, Bing Lanyue gave the Merman's Tears bracelet to the Snow Lotus.

This Merman's Tears bracelet was modified from Monarch Moli's Merman's Tears pendant. She passed this bracelet to Xue Lian and said, "I heard Master say that the Snow Lotus from Tianshan Sect is going to marry the Duke of the Auxiliary Nation. Master wanted to specially attend your little sister's wedding."

The Snow Lotus was instantly attracted by the bangle. She stroked the two Merman's Tears and said: "Thank you elder sister Zi Xia, elder sister. The wedding is set for half a month later. Elder sister must come at that time."

Bing Lanyue shook her head, and laughed bitterly: "I'm afraid I don't have that much time, so I'll deliver the gift ahead of time.

Bing Lanyue then took a proper look at the Snow Lotus' appearance. She was dressed in profound clothes, her skin was as white as snow, her round eyes were black, and her skin was especially tender, as though she could pinch water from her eyes.

Although her beautiful face did not have a devastating appearance, it was more than enough. Her body was emitting a faint refined fragrance, causing Bing Lanyue to feel ashamed of her own appearance.

Bing Lanyue was not particularly good-looking to begin with, and now, after travelling for so long, she could pick flowers and plant trees through the pores on her skin while being exposed to the wind and sun.

She touched her face and said, "Little Sister Xuelan, you're so pretty."

Snow Lotus lowered her head slightly, blushing from embarrassment.

"The one who has lowered his head the most is the one who is as gentle as a water lotus that is as shy as the cool wind." Bing Lanyue praised sincerely.

"Sister Zi Xia always teases little sisters. Other than Huo Feng, there's no one else to play with me these days. Why don't big sister stay and play with me?" Snow Lotus asked.

started to understand a little why Monarch Moli wanted to marry her. With such a cute and pure look, even she couldn't help but to be conquered.

Needless to say, Monarch Moli.

Bing Lanyue avoided the snow lotus's gaze and said with a slight smile, "Speaking of which, I've even met your fiance a few times. Haha, I won't stay any longer.

Bing Lanyue got on her horse, pointed towards the distance and said, "Little Sister Snow Lotus, I wish you and Monarch Moli good luck together."

Just as Snow Lotus was about to say something, Bing Lanyue kicked her horse fiercely in the stomach, and then flew quickly across the cobblestone road.

"That's not right, just now big sister Zi Xia said that Monarch Moli …" The Snow Lotus muttered to herself. Looking again, she saw that the man and the horse had already gone far away. Even if she wanted to chase them now, she might not be able to.

In this world, other people would be addressed by their surname or their character. Nobody would call someone else by their surname.

Furthermore, in the martial arts world, for those sects, from the Sect Leader to the disciples, who would dare to call Jun Fei by his name?

The Snow Lotus instinctively felt that there was something amiss as a wave of doubt enveloped her heart.

As she was thinking, she saw the twenty female guards surround her again. She felt a bit irritated and got on her horse. "There's no need to send me off. Tell Sister Huo that I'm back home."

With that, the Snow Lotus skillfully rode its horse towards the South Sea City.

Bing Lanyue really wanted to rush into her National Duke’s Mansion right now, to fiercely beat Monarch Moli up and bite him a few times more. The corners of her eyes leaked out a string of tears, which dripped onto the small patch of grass by the side of the road.

If it was only a guess in the past, then Monarch Moli would definitely marry Snow Lotus now.

The wedding had already been set, how could it be wrong?

Return the Jun Ming Zhu.

This was all that Bing Lanyue could do. In her grief, she walked into the South Sea City, blankly went to the inn, and then directly went upstairs and sat by the window.

The result was right in front of his eyes. What was the point in seeing him or not?

She couldn't help but let her thoughts run wild. In the afternoon, a gust of cold wind blew over, waking her from her daze. She raised her head and saw that another day was about to pass.

"Eldest Miss, let's have lunch in the afternoon. You haven't eaten since noon, and you haven't eaten since." Ru Zui said.

She did not know when, but Ru Zui had already returned and was sitting right beside her. She did not sense anything at all.

"Sister Ru Zui, when did you come back?" Bing Lanyue said with a smile.

Ru Zui stood up and hugged Bing Lanyue's head in an embrace, and said: "If you want to cry, just cry."

Bing Lanyue's nose turned sour, and her tears started streaming down uncontrollably as she cried silently.

Love to the pain, an unforgettable pain, she almost couldn't breathe, her heart was throbbing.

"Cry, cry. If you cry, you'll feel better." Ru Zui caressed Bing Lanyue's hair.

She sighed in her heart. She already knew that her eldest Miss would not give up no matter what. She always had a stubborn face and refused to admit defeat, refusing to show any signs of weakness.

Ru Zui could totally imagine how the First Miss would speak to Xue Lian as if nothing had happened, but her heart must have been bleeding.

It was only after a long time that Bing Lanyue finally left her arms.

"No more crying. If we don't come, how would we know what kind of person he is? Let's wash our faces and go back." Ru Zui took her body and helped wipe the tears at the corner of her eyes.
