Looking at the cliff before him, Dongfang Hao felt a sense of uncertainty. This was the final step in his plan.
In the secret chamber of the Demon Palace headquarters, there was a book left behind by the Demon Palace Master, containing the Demonic Zither Technique, a skill far more powerful than the Heartless Zither score.
The original name of the Heartless Zither was Demonic Zither, and it was paired with the Demonic Zither Technique.
Practicing the Demonic Zither Technique with the Heartless Zither was extremely dangerous. First, one had to nourish the Heartless Zither with their own blood—one drop each day for forty-nine days—to control its Soul of the Instrument.
On the forty-ninth day, if one was careless and failed to control the Soul of the Instrument, it would absorb the soul of the person who had been dripping blood daily.
As a result, that person would become a complete fool.
However, if successful, anyone who heard him play using the Demonic Zither Technique—living beings, animals, souls, or even those already laid to rest—would move according to the intentions of the player.
Due to its extreme danger, the ancestors of the Demon Palace sealed it away and forbade disciples from practicing it.
The Heartless Elder had a strong obsession with music and was very fond of the Demonic Zither. To avoid going against his master's wishes, he took it upon himself to rename the Demonic Zither as the Heartless Zither and created his own Heartless Zither score and techniques.
At this moment, Dongfang Hao thought about returning to practice the Demonic Zither Technique.
Only by mastering the Demonic Zither Technique could he avoid falling behind that Little One.
With all the Death Warriors dead, only Dongfang Hao and Luo Bingbing remained by the cliff. Luo Bingbing didn't even glance at the fallen Death Warriors; she turned and walked over to Dongfang Hao's side.
"Are you an idiot? Why didn’t you keep more people around?"
Seeing Luo Bingbing's worried expression filled with frustration made Dongfang Hao genuinely happy, but he still replied calmly, "I'm fine. You don't need to worry."
After saying this, he forced himself to stand up. However, before he could fully straighten up, he fainted and fell straight to the ground.
Hehe, this time he really fainted, not pretending!
In fact, he himself didn't even realize he had been poisoned, and the source of the poison was the knife of those Death Warriors.
When he let Shadowless leave, he deliberately pretended to be defeated and was stabbed from behind by a Death Warrior. The poison smeared on the knife entered his body at that moment.
When Luo Bingbing saw him fainting, she immediately caught him and gently laid him down. Then, she hurriedly checked his pulse.
After discovering that he was only affected by ordinary Flower Poison and was not in any life-threatening danger, she felt somewhat relieved.
However, she still needed to detoxify him quickly; otherwise, once the poison seeped into his lungs and spleen, it would be troublesome.
Scanning the surroundings and seeing all the dead Death Warriors, Luo Bingbing frowned and thought, "It seems this place won't do. I need to find a place to detoxify him quickly."
Without thinking twice, she directly used her Ability to bring Dongfang Hao back to her room in the villa.
After placing him on her bed, Luo Bingbing began using her Ability's healing technique to detoxify him.
Once the detoxification was complete, Luo Bingbing used her Ability to heal all his wounds. At this moment, Dongfang Hao on the bed was still in a deep sleep and had not yet woken up.
Looking at his dirty White Brocade Robe, Luo Bingbing couldn't help but frown tightly, thinking: I need to change this tattered outfit.
So she opened the door and saw Mink practicing in the yard with An Ruo Ran. Luo Bingbing wanted to call her over to change Dongfang Hao's clothes.
However, just thinking about another woman seeing Dongfang Hao's body made her very uncomfortable. So she quickly changed her mind.
She loudly called An Ruo Ran over and instructed her to find the Master of Shiyu Villa, one of the hundred people she personally trained, to get a set of Male Attire that Dongfang Hao could wear.
An Ruo Ran listened, her heart filled with confusion. She couldn't help but wonder to herself, "What does my master need such a large Male Attire for?"
Although she was puzzled, she didn't show a hint of it on her face. After nodding to the Little One, she hurried off to find the Master of Shiyu Villa.
After obtaining the clothes, An Ruo Ran rushed back, but as she passed through the garden, she happened to encounter Lo An Lord, who was strolling there.
Lo An Lord knew that she was unmarried. Seeing her holding a set of Male Attire, he asked in confusion, "Ruo Ran, who are you bringing this Male Attire for?"
Upon hearing his question, An Ruo Ran quickly replied, "Reporting to the prince, it is my master who asked me to find a set of this Male Attire."
"Ah, it's Bing Bing who asked you to find it? This isn't good; something must have happened. I need to check on her."
With that, Lo An Lord swiftly made his way toward the courtyard where Luo Bingbing resided.
Meanwhile, Luo Bingbing was in the next room bathing, having gotten some blood on her clothes while trying to save Dongfang Hao.
Lo An Lord reached his beloved daughter's door and called out loudly several times, "Bing Bing," but there was no response from the Little One.
His anxiety grew as he called out again, yet still received no answer.
Thus, Lo An Lord had no choice but to kick the door open.
When he burst through the door, he found that the Little One was not in the room. However, he did see someone lying on the bed.
He quickly approached the edge of the bed and took a closer look. His eyes widened in shock as he muttered to himself, "Isn't this the Emperor? How did he end up in Bing Bing's room?"
Seeing the bloodstains on Dongfang Hao's body, he immediately rushed over in a panic and said to Dongfang Hao, "Your Majesty, what happened? Are you alright?"
At that moment, Dongfang Hao was in a deep coma and could not possibly answer his questions.
Seeing that Dongfang Hao showed no signs of response, Lo An Lord felt increasingly anxious. Just then, Luo Bingbing entered the room with Mink after finishing her bath.
"Father, he's fine; he just fell into a deep sleep. He'll wake up soon," she reassured him.
Upon hearing her voice, Lo An Lord immediately turned to his beloved daughter and asked, "Bing Bing, is that true?"
"Absolutely."
"But why did the Emperor suddenly appear in your room?"
Before Luo Bingbing could respond, Dongfang Hao suddenly opened his eyes and answered for her, "I was injured; she saved me."
Hearing his voice, Lo An Lord quickly turned to him and bowed respectfully.
Since the injuries had already been treated by the little one, Dongfang Hao got up immediately and waved his hand, signaling Lo An Lord not to bow.
"Who sent those Death Warriors to kill you?"
"I don't know yet," Dongfang Hao replied evasively. After a brief pause, he continued, "See? I'm fine!"
"Fine? If I hadn't arrived in time, do you think you'd still be alive?"
Dongfang Hao was at a loss for words in response to her statement. Just then, Lo An Lord spoke up to defuse the tension.
"Alright, Bing Bing, let's keep it down! The Emperor has just escaped danger and needs to rest!"
At that moment, An Ruo Ran walked in holding some clothes. Upon seeing the garments, Luo Bingbing urged Dongfang Hao to quickly change out of his current outfit.
Once Luo Bingbing and the others had left, Dongfang Hao changed clothes by himself in the room.
With Dongfang Hao's arrival, Lo An Lord became even more determined to return. Under Dongfang Hao's persuasion, Lo An Lord joined him in a united front, both insisting that the Little One return to the palace.
At this point, Luo Bingbing had already realized that she had developed a bit of a liking for Dongfang Hao, but she was unwilling to admit it and wanted to escape from her feelings.
Feeling pressured by the two of them, she evasively replied, "Let me think about it."
Knowing they couldn't push the Little One too hard, they refrained from insisting further. Meanwhile, she quietly used her Ability to return to Ling Mountain.
When Xuan Ye saw her, he slowly began to counsel her, saying, "Bing'er, there are currently no signs of the other six Spirit Orbs at all. However, your life star is becoming increasingly bright. I suspect that the gears of your mission to protect this world have begun to turn."
After a brief pause, he continued, "In my opinion, you should return to the palace for now. Just let things unfold naturally; everything has its own destiny."
Having said that, Xuan Ye vanished from sight.
After hearing his words, Luo Bingbing pondered for a moment and decided to follow Dongfang Hao back to the palace. After all, if she wanted to sneak out later, she could do so quietly.
