"The extreme of suffering in the world is nothing more than love. ”

This is what Ao Shu said to the Dragon Princess of the East China Sea when he first met Ao Feng.

At that time, Ao Shu was not small, but because he was weak since he was a child, he had been pampered in a palace smoked with precious tonic herbs, and he did not leave his palace until he was in good health, and began to contact the outside world.

Ao Shu, who walked out of the palace for the first time, was excited, she spread her girl like a rabbit that broke free from the shackles, and easily threw the attendant away without a trace.

The East China Sea Crystal Palace is vast, and Ao Shu was happy like a little bird at first, but when the excitement passed, he found that he had rushed into a dense coral forest at some point, and he couldn't get out for a long time, and he couldn't see the exit, so he began to feel scared and sat on the ground and sobbed.

"Brother......" she cried and called out to her brother Ao Qi, but her brother, who was always on call, did not respond at the moment.

Just when she thought she would have to spend days in the coral forest before she was found, a string of water bubbles suddenly emerged from between the corals, one after the other, all the way to her.

"Blisters?"

She wiped the tears from her face, sobbed to her feet, and walked slowly in the direction where the bubble had come from, walking about a stick of incense, and when the last bubble burst in the palm of her hand, she saw the exit out of the coral forest.

"Who is it?"

She looked up at the coral forest and asked loudly, "Are you the one who leads the way for me?"

The coral forest was silent, and she received no response except for the sound of the water rushing under the sea.

"I want to thank you, not to ask for trouble. ”

Ao Shu was a little disappointed and a little aggrieved, she stared at the depths of the coral forest for a long time before she sighed and left in disappointment. Not long after leaving, the attendant came over, knelt in front of Ao Shu and wept for a long time, begging her not to run around again.

Ao Shu was worried about the string of blisters in the coral forest, and had no intention of continuing to play, so she returned to the palace with a heavy heart, lying on her stomach in the soft collapse of the clam shell, and she didn't even notice the arrival of her brother Ao Qi.

"I heard the attendant say that you left the palace today and ran around and entered the coral forest?"

Ao Qi picked up Ao Shu with a dark face, and said solemnly: "You can't go to that place again." ”

His words successfully aroused Ao Shu's curiosity, and instead of heeding his warning, the latter asked excitedly, "Why?"

"Ask so much what to do, don't go if you don't go. Ochie didn't want to answer.

"No, I can't. Ao Shu didn't give up, "If you don't make it clear, my heart will definitely be like a cat scratching, and I will definitely be tempted to go a second or third time." ”

Ao Qi opened his mouth to scold, but after thinking about it, he felt that Ao Shu was right, so he had to choose to take a step back and tell her all the reasons.

"There's a side hall in the coral grove where a dangerous guest lives, so you can't approach it at will. Ao Qi raised his hand and pressed it on the top of Ao Shu's head, and said with a warning: "If I know that you will go again, you will be ready to be locked up in the palace for a few months." ”

Seeing Ao Shu nodding obediently, Ao Qi finally put his mind at ease, left the small gift he brought back, and left the East China Sea to deal with the affairs of the Three Realms.

After confirming that Ao Qi had left, Ao Shu summoned the attendant who had been on duty in the palace for many years and asked in a low voice: "Which guest lives in the coral forest?"

The attendant officer heard Ao Qi's warning just now, and chose to remain silent about Ao Shu's question.

"Don't say yes. Ao Shu raised her eyebrows and said coolly: "Then I'll find it myself." ”

The attendant officer broke out in a cold sweat: "Your Highness, no!"

"Then tell me directly, and I won't go to my brother to denounce you. ”

The attendant wanted to cry without tears, his heart was very entangled, and after thinking about it again and again to no avail, he had to close his eyes and heart, and chose to stabilize Ao Shu first.

"The one in Coral Forest is the only son of Princess Celestia. ”

The eldest princess in the mouth of the attendant is the sister of the Eastern Dragon King, the eldest daughter of the old Dragon King, Ao Shu only knows that this aunt died early, but she doesn't know the cause of her death, let alone that she left a son.

"Auntie's only son...... That's my cousin?"

The attendant nodded, "Yes, in terms of seniority, that one is indeed your cousin." ”

"Since he is a cousin, he is a close relative of the dragon clan, and he should be treated with courtesy, how can he be allowed to live in a remote place like the Coral Forest?" Ao Shu was a little dissatisfied.

The attendant didn't know how to speak, and he pondered and said, "This...... It's ...... for a reason."

"What is the reason?"

The attendant hesitated: "This ......"

Ao Shu got up: "I'll ask myself." ”

"Because of his father!" The attendant knelt down in front of Ao Shu, broke the jar and said: "The eldest princess eloped with a black Jiao for love, but the black Jiao was greedy and fell into the devil when she was cultivating, and killed the eldest princess, so the one in the coral forest has half of the demon's blood, which is extremely dangerous." ”

Ao Shu didn't know what demonic blood was, but her instincts told her that the person who quietly showed her the way with the blisters would never be as dangerous as the squire said.

is different from Ao Qi, who has always loved his sister, he always runs to Ao Shu's palace twice in three days and sends Ao Shu a lot of food to play, so Ao Shu is extremely close to this brother even if he has never left the palace. But the coral forest has a special identity, although the dragon queen takes great care of him, but he is always cautious in what he says and does, and almost never takes the initiative to leave the side hall where he lives, so Ao Shu doesn't know anything about this cousin. And since she learned that there was a cousin living in the coral forest who she had never met, Ao Shu's heart had been itching, and she was very curious about what that cousin looked like. Occasionally, she would inadvertently mention the Coral Forest when visiting the Dragon Queen, wanting to find out some information about her cousin, but the Dragon Queen only said something innocuous and did not have what Ao Shu wanted to hear at all. After a long time, Ao Shu's curiosity finally couldn't be suppressed, and she chose to take action, disguised as a squire and followed her mother into the coral forest.

The side hall in the coral forest is very small, more like a courtyard than the hall, the dragon queen retreated and a group of attendants entered the courtyard alone, Ao Shu pretended to retreat at that time, turned around and found a gap to come back, and quietly hid behind a big coral tree closest to the side hall.

From the crevices of the coral branches, she saw Ao Feng for the first time.

It was a handsome young man as white as jade, with black hair neatly tied in a crown, clear and clean skin without a single blemish, and delicate and slender eyebrows and eyes clear and bright, like a little bright star falling into a deep pool.

"How are you doing?" the dragon queen looked at him from head to toe, sighed lightly and said with some apologies, "It's hard work for you to live here." ”

"No, it won't. Ao Feng lowered his eyes lightly and said lightly: "I am very grateful for giving me a place to stay." ”

Hearing him say this, the Dragon Queen was even more distressed, she gently held Ao Feng's slender hands and comforted him: "You wait, when you are older, your father will grant you a fief, and then you will be in charge of a river, so you will not have to suffer such grievances." ”

Ao Feng nodded: "Thank you, aunt." ”

"Thank you for what I did. The dragon queen sighed, "I still feel guilty when I think of your mother now, if I had stopped her, she wouldn't have ......."

"Auntie, that's her own choice. After Ao Feng interrupted the dragon, there were complex emotions rolling in the deep pool's eyes, "The extreme of suffering in the world is nothing more than a word of love." ”

This sentence Ao Shu only felt obscure at the time, but now that she thinks about it, she and Ao Feng have tasted a lot of suffering in the world because of this word "love".

In the no-man's land, Ao Shu looked at Ao Feng, who had lost his mind and roared and rushed around, smiled lightly and closed his eyes.

The white divine light lit up from her body, and the pieces of the white feather coat shattered, turning into a golden wind that enveloped her, and after a while, the wind burst apart, and a white dragon rose into the air in the midst of the turbulent waves, like a huge white chain, tightly entwining and imprisoning the mad black Jiao.

The black dragon was imprisoned and furious, desperately rolling and trying to break free, but the white dragon wrapped him tighter, and the black Jiao scales and white dragon scales fell from the sky like rain between the entanglement and collision, falling into the water and turning into white lotus and black lotus, delicate and abnormal, gorgeous and abnormal, but withered in an instant.

"Poof—"

No one was outside the country, Huan Yi couldn't suppress the collision of huge divine power in the state of his heart, and suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood, his eyes were black and he almost fell into syncope.

"Huan Yi!"

Li Shuyu's face turned pale with fright, she held Huan Yi, who almost fell, and asked in a panic: "How is it? Can you still hold on? By the way, I have Jindan! I brought Jindan......

"It's useless...... Huan Yi's voice was weak and hoarse, he clenched his heart as if he was being Ling Chi, and said with difficulty: "Jin Dan can only heal wounds, and what I am damaging is the root of the heart, and the medicine stones are ineffective......"

"But...... But ......" Li Shuyu cried: "But I only have Jin Dan, what can I do to save you......"

Heart's blood is depleted, and only heart's blood can be cured.

As if to answer her, the words that Zixiao Zhenjun had spoken during the lecture suddenly sounded in her mind. That day's lecture talked about the allusion that the ancestors of the Feng clan had saved the ancient sage emperor of the human world with their heart's blood, making the world rich for a hundred years, and peace, she was curious to ask why the Feng clan wanted to use the precious heart's blood, Zixiao Zhenjun told her that the heart's blood was too precious, so the loss could only be healed. At that time, she only listened to a story, but she didn't expect this allusion to be used today.

"You...... What are you doing......"

Seeing Li Shuyu transform the ice sword back into a hairpin, Huan Yi intuitively felt that she was going to do something crazy, and immediately widened her eyes and said with difficulty: "Don't ...... Absolutely not...... Your cultivation is too shallow, if you exhaust your cultivation with your heart and blood, you will ......"

"I'm not just for you. Li Shuyu didn't look at him, only stared at the hairpin in his hand, and said firmly: "If you die, the big brother of the river god will rush out of the no-man's land and become a demon scourge of the human world, and Ao Shu Shangxian will definitely stop him and embark on the same path as the dragon princess back then." I don't want them to die, and I don't want you to die, if a few drops of blood can keep you safe, then I earned it. ”

"No......"

Huan Yi wanted to raise his hand to snatch the hairpin, but his whole body had already lost his strength, and in a blur, he felt Li Shuyu gently touch his head, and said in a low voice: "I won't die, I promised Ah Feng, I will definitely wait for him to come back." ”
