Affectionate

As soon as Bai Li Hongzhuang stepped out of the Blood Qi Tower, she noticed Emperor Beichen waiting for her not far away. A trace of delight appeared on her beautiful face, and she immediately walked up to him.

"Why did you come to pick me up today?" she asked.

Yesterday, Emperor Beichen had simply waited for her at the inn, so his actions today were obviously different.

Emperor Beichen smiled faintly and reached out to hold Bai Li Hongzhuang's small hand. "Your performance today was truly stunning," he remarked.

Hearing his words, Bai Li Hongzhuang looked at Emperor Beichen with surprise. It turned out that he knew about her situation inside the Blood Qi Tower.

However, she hadn't noticed Emperor Beichen's presence in the Blood Qi Tower...

Seeing Bai Li Hongzhuang's perplexed expression, Emperor Beichen merely chuckled and didn't explain.

How important was Hongzhuang to him?

He couldn't possibly allow Hongzhuang to venture on her own. He had to ensure that if she encountered any danger, he would be there for her without delay.

Only then could he feel at ease.

"Let's return to the inn and rest. You've expended a lot of energy today," Emperor Beichen said, tightening his grip on Bai Li Hongzhuang's hand. They then walked together towards the inn.

Bai Li Hongzhuang raised her phoenix-like eyes slightly and looked at Emperor Beichen's handsome and sculpted profile, feeling a touch of moved emotion in her heart.

When she first saw Emperor Beichen, she didn't immediately understand, but upon hearing his concern about her consumption of elemental energy, she realized.

Emperor Beichen had come specifically to pick her up, presumably worried that someone might target her on the way.

After all, she had expended a considerable amount of elemental energy in the Blood Qi Tower, and many people would hold a glimmer of hope and attempt to harm her.

The wealth she had gained today in the Blood Qi Tower was exceptionally optimistic. If she were killed, they would obtain all that wealth!

She had already considered this possibility.

Having traveled the jianghu for many years in the past, she had already devised her own plans for such situations.

Moreover, as an alchemist, she was never lacking in elixirs. Even if her elemental energy was depleted, she only needed to replenish it with some elixirs.

However, she understood how much Emperor Beichen cared for her. Despite knowing that she had her own means, he still chose to come and pick her up.

Perhaps only in this way could Emperor Beichen feel at ease.

On the way, the onlookers couldn't help but marvel at the divine and loving couple formed by Bai Li Hongzhuang and Emperor Beichen.

Although their time in the Blood Abyss wasn't long, many people had an impression of them.

Because these two individuals were simply too outstanding in appearance, it was hard for anyone to forget them.

Originally, there were quite a few people who had ill intentions towards them, but Emperor Beichen effortlessly claimed the life of Bai Feng, making them hesitant to act rashly.

Offending a powerful individual was never a wise decision.

The two of them safely returned to the inn, where Emperor Beichen had prepared delicious food for Bai Li Hongzhuang and her three spirit beasts.

Bai Li Hongzhuang looked at the food before her, her eyes brightening. "Did you go there again today?"

She could recognize that the food was made from demonic beast meat, which was not sold near the Blood Qi Tower. It could only be found at the place Emperor Beichen had taken her last time.

Emperor Beichen nodded slightly. "Consuming these during your cultivation process will greatly benefit your cultivation progress."

Back in the day, his master had prepared these kinds of dishes for him every day, and he found the method to be very effective. Naturally, he also prepared them for Hongzhuang.
