With his jet black wings, Gu Yi moved, darting fast to catch Fu Xie Lan's body before it hit the ground.
Making anyone who saw it immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Wan Lie who previously also wanted to move immediately stopped in place because his father was first to move.
***
The night was getting late, Fu Xie Lan had just come to her senses.
The girl is now still in a lying position on her bedroom bed at the Arcadia Inn.
Headaches accompanied by dizziness gripped her head, making it difficult for Fu Xie Lan to move. Trying to turn to the side, only Gu Yi she met. The man was standing by the window, looking out as if he was thinking about something.
What happened? Her last memory was when she had just finished rearranging the palace gardens using her Fairy mana. Until then, the pain in the lower abdomen accompanied by the pain in her head made her fall, and she didn't feel anything after that.
"How are you feeling now, Queen?" A voice coming from Gu Yi interrupted her reverie. The man walked closer to the bed and sat down next to Fu Xie Lan.
Seeing this, Fu Xie Lan tried to get up from her position but was stopped by Gu Yi.
"Don't move too much, Honey."
"Your body has lost a lot of mana," he continued, gently pushing the girl's tiny shoulder.
Fu Xie Lan didn't protest and just obeyed. Indeed, she felt that her body was very weak.
Was it because she used both the fairy and the wizard's mana at the same time? Whereas she only used a little. Why did she lose more?
However, what the girl felt made it all clear. That she had indeed lost a lot of mana.
"Where's Daddy?" asked the girl weakly.
"He's in his room, Queen," Gu Yi replied.
"Does he know my situation?"
"No," Gu Yi replied, stroking Fu Xie Lan's long hair.
"Thanks," the girl said, sighing in relief. She didn't want her father to worry about her.
"Then where are the others?"
"Still in the palace, Queen."
Hearing that, her brow furrowed faintly, currently, Fu Xie Lan is not wearing a mask.
"Did something happen?"
"No, Queen. Don't worry, I just asked them to finish everything, help the humans prepare the palace so that tomorrow your father and the others can immediately occupy it," Gu Yi explained at length.
"Is that true?"
"Yes, Queen," replied the man gently
"Then thank you," said Fu Xie Lan again, her eyes twinkling with Gu Yi who treated her gently and it made her heart warm a little. She didn't know when she had gotten used to the man.
The sound of the night animal is occasionally heard, becoming a melodic strain that is suitable as a lullaby.
Silent for a few minutes, for some reason Fu Xie Lan couldn't sleep. No matter how much she tried to close her eyes, but the lids didn't close. A weak sigh escaped her lips. The pain she felt earlier had disappeared.
The temperature in the room made it a little hot, whereas it was getting late at night. The girl slowly moved, stepping towards the closed window.
When she opened it, immediately the cool and refreshing night breeze hit her face.
Her hands moved to ponytail her long hair, and it managed to reveal her long, smooth and white neck.
She leaned her head against the window, thinking about everything she'd been through so far.
One piece of ruby star stone has already arrived in her hand, she needs seven more pieces. But where are the pieces? Whether it was still in the human race or not, she didn't know.
To be honest, ever since getting the first piece of ruby star stone in her hands, Fu Xie Lan had always hoped that someone would give her a clue about the whereabouts of another ruby star stone.
And up until now, the girl hadn't gotten any clues, making her a little anxious.
If she didn't get any more clues, did that mean she had to scour all over the Artland World looking for them?
The current time was about five months away, and if she didn't get a clue after this, she doubted she would get it all before the silver blood moon happened.
The feeling of fear overtook her, she did not want to disappear. But how? time is very short, and there are no clues at all.
"Are you teasing me? Hmm?"
Gu Yi suddenly hugged her from behind and kissed her neck for a long time. Creates a faint red mark there. The man's unexpected action made Fu Xie Lan's body stiffen.
"Is something bothering you?" he whispered sensually in Fu Xie Lan's ear. The man had previously fallen asleep next to Fu Xie Lan. Sleep is not in the true sense. Gu Yi closed his eyes while recovering the mana in his body. And when his eyelids opened, he did not find Fu Xie Lan next to him.
"I'm just scared," Fu Xie Lan replied in such a weak tone of voice. The pain was gone, but somehow her body felt very weak as if it needed something to get back to the way it was. Like someone hungry, needs food to fill her energy.
Yes, around that. However, Fu Xie Lan was not hungry at all.
"What are you afraid of, Queen. I'm here," said the man again kissing Fu Xie Lan's neck. One of his hands started to move wildly down there.
"I'm not sure if I can get the ruby star stone before the silver blood moon happens," the girl retorted occasionally moaning at Gu Yi's treatment.
Hearing Fu Xie Lan's words, the man suddenly stopped his movements.
With a slow-motion, Gu Yi turned the girl's body to face him. His hands cupped her cheek with a movement and a touch that was so soft.
"Don't think about it, Queen."
"I promise to help you get the ruby star stone before the silver blood moon happens."
Don't be afraid, don't worry about anything. As long as I'm around, you have nothing to be afraid of," he said in such a soft tone of voice.
And after saying that, in that instant, he lifted Fu Xie Lan's tiny body, faced him.
Of course, Fu Xie Lan was surprised, fortunately, she had quick reflexes so immediately wrapped her legs around the man's waist with both hands that also wrapped around Gu Yi's neck. All this was done to prevent her body from falling.
"What are you mmllpphh....." Before finishing her sentence, the man pulled her head closer and kissed her softly.
The black smog moved quickly to cover the open window, while Gu Yi slowly started to move Fu Xie Lan's body closer to the bed without releasing his lips on the girl's lips.
The kiss that was originally soft and slow turned demanding, chewy and sweet made Gu Yi even more addicted. Meanwhile, Fu Xie Lan, who initially did not return the man's kiss, is now slowly starting to play with her lips and tongue. Making Gu Yi even more excited while cheering in his heart.
Looks like tonight is going to be a very hot night for both of them.
