Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King

In the sacred realm.

Duanmu Xi and Xuanyuan Mo finally walked through a forest and arrived at a valley.

As they entered the valley, the bright sky suddenly dimmed. Duanmu Xi subconsciously clenched Xuanyuan Mo’s hand.

Feeling Duanmu Xi’s uneasiness, Xuanyuan Mo also tightened his grip on Duanmu Xi’s hand.

Duanmu Xi looked at the dark valley and subconsciously frowned, “Snow, do you find something is wrong? We walked for a long time in the forest just now. And it was in the daytime. However, as we got to the valley, it immediately became dark.”

The strangest thing was that there was no transition in between. It felt like noon suddenly became midnight. It was so weird.

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo also looked around warily, “Be careful.” Although he didn’t feel there was anybody or any spiritual beast nearby, this valley was suffused in a strange atmosphere.

Duanmu Xi nodded. This valley was so strange. They had better be careful. Just as well she and Snow could see things in the darkness. Otherwise, they couldn’t get out of such a dark valley sheerly by feeling.

They walked for another while. Feeling that Duanmu Xi’s steps were a bit heavy, Xuanyuan Mo knitted his brows and then looked down at her, “You’ve walked for so long. Are you tired? Would you like to take a rest?” If they had known the valley would be like this, they would have rested a bit in the forest.

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi looked around and shook her head, “I’m not tired. It’s not safe here. We’d better get out of here as soon as possible.” This place was so strange. They should just get out of here as soon as possible.

Xuanyuan Mo thought about it and bent to carry Duanmu Xi in his arms.

Duanmu Xi didn’t expect Xuanyuan Mo would suddenly carry her in his arms. She felt touched and also sorry for him. They both walked for such a long distance. He must be tired too. Now, he had to carry her. “Put me down. I’m not tired,” Duanmu Xi said.

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo stopped and looked at Duanmu Xi with affection. He hung his head to peck her on the lips, “You never have to push yourself in front of me.”

Duanmu Xi instantly had a lump in her throat and almost shed tears. She put her arms around Xuanyuan Mo’s neck and looked at Xuanyuan Mo, saying seriously, “OK. I’ll only be the real me in front of you.”

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Mo smiled and no more stopped. He carried Duanmu Xi and trotted forward quickly.

Shortly, Duanmu Xi saw a stone tablet, “Snow, look at that. What is it?”

Xuanyuan Mo looked in the direction where Duanmu Xi pointed. In the darkness, he seemed to see the stone tablet glowing with a milky white light. The faint white light made him unable to see clearly what it wrote on the stone tablet.

Duanmu Xi patted Xuanyuan Mo’s shoulder, “Snow, put me down. I will go and take a look.” Duanmu Xi was really curious about what it wrote on the stone tablet.

Xuanyuan Mo frowned and gently put Duanmu Xi down, “Let’s go together.” This place was so strange. He wouldn’t let her go on her own.

Duanmu Xi nodded and dragged Xuanyuan Mo to the stone tablet.

Duanmu Xi didn’t see clearly the words Foggy Valley on the stone tablet until she arrived in front of it. There were also two lines below. Duanmu Xi bent to take a closer look and found that it wrote, “It seems to be fog but not fog; it seems to be a flower but not a flower.”

Duanmu Xi knitted her brows. These should be two lines of a poem. What on earth did it mean?

Duanmu Xi was pondering with her head lowered. Now, she didn’t realize that the dark valley had been foggy. Without a few breaths, the dark valley had been enshrouded in the white fog. The black-and-white valley appeared vague and mysterious.

“Snow…” Duanmu Xi who was confused wanted to ask Xuanyuan Mo about this. However, as she turned around, she found in shock that Xuanyuan Mo who was standing behind her was gone.

“Snow…” Duanmu Xi trotted for two steps and came to the position where Xuanyuan Mo stayed just now, but there was nobody at all. Duanmu Xi was a bit anxious. She turned around again and looked around the valley but still didn’t see Xuanyuan Mo.

“Snow…” Duanmu Xi’s voice was a bit trembling.

“Snow…” An echo came from the opposite side of the valley. It also seemed to be trembling. Duanmu Xi heard the creepy echo and subconsciously frowned.

Duanmu Xi searched around but didn’t find Xuanyuan Mo. Duanmu Xi sat in dejection on the stone tablet. Where would Snow go? He was behind her just now. Why was he gone in a flash?

Now, Duanmu Xi was somewhat worried about Xuanyuan Mo. Although he was competent, it was hard to tell what danger there was in the sacred realm. Besides, if Snow didn’t find her, he would be anxious too.

What on earth should she do? To stay and wait for Snow to come to her or go out to look for Snow?

Did Snow’s disappearance have anything to do with the stone tablet? Duanmu Xi stood up abruptly and looked at the stone tablet. Snow was gone when she was staring at the stone tablet.

Duanmu Xi bent to look at the words Foggy Valley on the stone tablet. Duanmu Xi came to her senses. Why was there a lot of fog in the valley? There was no fog just now. Did Snow’s disappearance have anything to do with the white fog?

Duanmu Xi turned to look at the stone tablet again and then furrowed her brows. What did the two lines mean? What on earth did the sacred realm try to test her? Maybe Snow’s disappearance was also the sacred realm’s test for her.

At the thought of that, Duanmu Xi felt less tense. As she remembered, Chief Elder seemed to have said that one would be sent out of the sacred realm if he failed the test. Hence, there should be no mortal danger.

Since it was the test for her and she was here for the test, there was no reason to flinch. Maybe she could meet Snow soon.

Duanmu Xi decided to enter the valley. Looking at the valley enshrouded in fog, she felt worried again. There was so much fog that she couldn’t identify the direction. Previously, the valley was all dark but she still could see something with her night vision. However, facing the fog around, she could hardly move forward.

Duanmu Xi was groping forward through the fog while Xuanyuan Mo was looking for her madly.

“Xi…” Xuanyuan Mo shouted fretfully. Now, he was burning with anxiety. The woman who had been in front of him just now just disappeared in an instant.

“Xi…” Xuanyuan Mo shouted and walked back. Nevertheless, although he walked for a long time, he seemed to take the wrong direction and couldn’t reach the entrance.

Walking on the endless path, Xuanyuan Mo frowned. Where was he? He didn’t take the wrong direction, but why couldn’t he get to the entrance?

Xuanyuan Mo had no other choice but to return to the place where Duanmu Xi disappeared. Yet, strangely, the stone tablet they saw before was gone too.

Xuanyuan Mo crouched down to check the position where the stone tablet had been and found that the earth on the ground was the same as others. It didn’t look like having been pressed by something heavy.

Seeing the scene, Xuanyuan Mo subconsciously frowned again. It didn’t seem that there used to be a stone tablet here. Did the stone tablet vanish into thin air, or was the stone tablet they had seen an illusion?

Xuanyuan Mo stood up and stared at the misty valley, his amber eyes flickering. Foggy Valley? It changed so fast. He didn’t know where Xi was. Given her character, she would enter the valley. Anyway, he should enter the valley first.

At the thought of that, Xuanyuan Mo directly walked inside. The fog was heavy, but it didn’t seem to affect Xuanyuan Mo. He acted very fast, a lot faster than Duanmu Xi who was groping forward. Perhaps this was the beast clan’s nature of adapting to the natural environment.

Duanmu Xi fumbled for a long time and didn’t know the direction at all. After walking for a long time, she finally saw a manor.

Looking at the words, Misty Manor, Duanmu Xi frowned. Where was there a manor in the sacred realm? Was it another illusion? If so, should she go inside or not?

While Duanmu Xi was on the fence, the gate of the manor was open. Two servants came from inside the manor.

The two servants saw Duanmu Xi and immediately bowed to her, “Ma’am, please come in. Our master has waited a long time for you.”

Duanmu Xi knitted her brows. Their master was waiting for her? The master here knew she was coming. This manor was as strange as the valley. She had better be discreet.

Duanmu Xi swept a curtsy to the two servants, “In this case, please show me the way.” Since she came, she would go inside and take a look. No matter how strange it was, she had to confront it anyway.

The two servants immediately bowed and said, “Don’t be so polite. Please follow me.” With that, they led Duanmu Xi into the manor.

The manor was big and magnificent yet showed a bizarre air.

The two servants led Duanmu Xi to the door of the main hall, “Please come in. Our master is inside.” Then, the two servants turned around and left.

Duanmu Xi looked at the dim main hall and knitted her brows, but she still walked inside.

No sooner had she entered the main hall than the door slammed shut.

Duanmu Xi turned to look at the closed door and frowned.

While Duanmu Xi was still confused, someone suddenly appeared in front of Duanmu Xi and held her.

Duanmu Xi was shocked and wanted to push away the one who held her, but a faintly desolate voice sounded in her ears.

“There you are. You know what, I’ve waited a few centuries for you!” His deep voice was full of longing and sorrow.
