Fear, Emperor Beichen

The gentle and beautiful face of Liu Qin Yue revealed a hint of hesitation and worry as she gazed at Gong Shaoqing, her eyes filled with reluctance.

Gong Shaoqing nodded, "You're right not to go. The risks inside are great, and no one knows what the outcome will be."

"Gong Big Brother, it's too risky for us with our current strength to go in."

Liu Qin Yue furrowed her eyebrows, "Ji Dai'er and the others already have innate cultivation, not to mention the risks within this ruins. Just encountering them poses a great danger."

"If they set their eyes on the treasures you obtain, they will definitely forcefully seize them. It's too dangerous. It's better to..."

Before Liu Qin Yue could finish her words, Gong Shaoqing already interrupted her, "Qin Yue, you don't need to say anymore. I won't give up such a good opportunity."

Liu Qin Yue wanted to continue speaking, but seeing the resolute determination in Gong Shaoqing's eyes, the words she wanted to say remained unsaid.

"Then, Gong Big Brother, I'll wait for you at Canglan Academy."

Liu Qin Yue's voice was gentle, and her eyes were filled with tenderness and love.

She had stubbornly stayed at Canglan Academy for her studies instead of directly studying alchemy at the Alchemist Guild, partly because of Gong Shaoqing.

Only at Canglan Academy could she be with Gong Shaoqing all the time.

She was afraid that after returning to Canglan Academy this time, she would never see Gong Shaoqing again, and that was something she couldn't bear.

"I will return safely," Gong Shaoqing said slowly.

"My Lady, the ruins will open tomorrow. Are you afraid?" Di Beichen asked with a smile.

Bai Li Hongzhuang turned her head, and in Di Beichen's eyes, the dazzling smile was like stars in the sky, shining brightly.

The corners of her cherry lips curled slightly, and Bai Li Hongzhuang smiled lightly, "It's such a rare opportunity. I'm only excited in my heart, why would I be afraid?"

Fear was always a useless emotion. Since they had already decided to go, fear had lost any meaning.

Instead of wasting time on fear, it was better to calmly think about how to face what was to come.

Seeing the indifference in Bai Li Hongzhuang's expression, Di Beichen's eyes were filled with admiration. He smiled and said, "My Lady, you are truly different from ordinary women."

"And so are you?" Bai Li Hongzhuang raised an eyebrow.

"In that case, are we a match made in heaven?" Di Beichen blinked his eyes and said playfully.

Bai Li Hongzhuang gave Di Beichen a sidelong glance. This guy could really bring up anything, "I think you should focus on adjusting your aura. That's how you can increase your chances of winning tomorrow."

"Tomorrow, you need to be extra careful. We'll go in together, alright?"

Di Beichen gazed at Bai Li Hongzhuang, putting away his previous joking demeanor and showing a serious expression.

Seeing the genuine concern and nervousness in Di Beichen's eyes, Bai Li Hongzhuang's heart trembled, and she nodded, "Okay."

Only then did Di Beichen smile. His Lady was fearless, but he was afraid of his Lady getting hurt.

Now, to him, the treasures within the ruins were secondary. Bai Li Hongzhuang's safety was the most important thing.

Not far away, Han Xilin watched this scene, a hint of sinister intent flashing in her eyes.

Ji Dai'er had unknowingly arrived next to Han Xilin. With a smile on her face, she asked tentatively, "Han Xilin, it seems like you don't like this Bai Li Hongzhuang?"
