Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

"She doesn't have a figure as good as mine, and she's not attractive enough. She just looks very peaceful when she's sleeping."

Murong Xue didn't actually say anything bad about her, because Huang Yanyao's figure was indeed not as good as hers, and so was her attractiveness, but Lu Mu thought of Murong Xue hiding outside the bedroom and secretly watching her, and she looked quite cute that way.

Lu Mu suddenly laughed, reached out and rubbed her head, and said lovingly: "It's not good to be sneaky."

"Ahaha!" Murong Xue laughed a few times, "Don't praise me, I'll be proud."

"Silly girl." Lu Mu hugged her tighter, "I like you when you're silly."

Stupid... Murong Xue rolled her eyes. She was not a cat, so how could she be stupid...

She was happy to act like a kitten for him though.

……

The moonlit night is quiet.

It’s just that tonight is not so ordinary for Huang Yanyao.

Huang Yanyao was lying on the soft couch on the balcony, wearing a purple dress with her long silky hair spread out.

"Ancestor?"

"Ok?"

"Am I thinking too much, or is there really a nice smell left on this balcony?"

"I can't smell it, but...if you ask who left it, it does have a story behind it."

"What do you mean?"

"I am saying that someone in the palace will be very comfortable tonight. As for other things, please don't ask any more questions."

……

Early in the morning, Lu Mu was awakened by Murong Xue's hair.

She moved higher and higher, until her face was pressed against his collarbone. When he raised his head, he met her charming yet pure and flawless peach blossom eyes.

Murong Xue's sleeping posture has always been bad, especially when she is with him, she becomes more free and easy. This is a good thing, because it means that Murong Xue no longer retains that distant shyness in front of him.

Lu Mu bent down and kissed her smooth and plump forehead, "Be good, it's time to get up."

"Well……"

Murong Xue frowned and snuggled into his arms.

She was exhausted yesterday and now her whole body ached. She wanted to stay in his arms for a while longer and refused to get up.

"Let me lie down for a while."

Her eyes, shining with crystal clear light, faced the clear sky outside the window. Her eyelashes were long, curled, thick and fine, like two palm-leaf fans. She just stared at it steadily, with a faint smile, and seemingly a hint of teasing.

Lu Mu was amused by her and couldn't help pinching her nose. "Little lazy cat, I don't want others to say that I am obsessed with beauty and miss my job."

"That's because others are jealous."

When Murong Xue starts to act like a spoiled brat, she is very stubborn. Seeing her acting like this, Lu Mu was reluctant to force her, but he had a better way. So Lu Mu used a little strength and hugged her tighter. Before she could react, he had already begun to taste her smooth and tender lips.

Lu Mu's movements became more and more forceful, as if he wanted to take away all the energy in her body. She did not resist at all and let himself be taken away, even if there was nothing left.

After being tormented by him, Murong Xue's whole body turned into a puddle of mud. She lay on his chest, gasping for breath, her eyes hazy and moist, and her lips as bright as a rose.

"If you don't get up, you'll have to sleep in this room for a day or two."

"It's too much..."

"Then shall we continue?"

"Okay! I'll get up."

She struggled to sit up, and as soon as she was seated, Lu Mu picked her up and let her sit on his waist.

Murong Xue let out a soft cry, crossed her legs, put her arms on his shoulders, snuggled up to his neck, rubbed her cheek against his earlobe, and waited for him to help her put on her skirt, the dark red knee-length palace skirt.

……

Huang Yanyao and Gu Yunxi were already waiting at the gate of Tongshi Palace.

When they saw Lu Mu, it was impossible for them to ignore the charming figure who had been leaning against him. Huang Yanyao raised her eyebrows and immediately knew what Huang Wumeng meant by his words last night.

Indeed, Lu Mu must have had a very comfortable time last night.

Chapter 102: Return to Zhaotian City

Murong Xue was not wearing a veil, and her long pink and white hair was just scattered and fluttering in the wind, setting off her stunningly beautiful face, making her look both charming and indifferent.

If she wasn't alone with Lu Mu, Murong Xue would become more distant from others, even colder than Luo Shuangning.

Huang Yanyao narrowed her eyes and felt a sense of crisis in her heart.

If it weren't for those delicate facial features that still matched the beauty in her memory, she would hardly recognize Murong Xue.

The two of them didn't see each other often, and they had never even spoken to each other. Huang Yanyao was just a taciturn little princess who hid her lively personality. Murong Xue, on the other hand, still lived more or less under the shadow of Lu Mu and had an equally dull personality. They were like two pieces of ice, which would only become colder if they collided, and would never melt.

Although she felt quite complicated and confused in her heart, Huang Yanyao always looked dignified and showed an indifferent and reserved smile.

Only after Lu Mu and Murong Xue walked in did Huang Yanyao meet her eyes. The two equally beautiful girls looked at each other and saw a look of scrutiny in each other's eyes.

"……uh-huh."

Pink swirls appeared in Murong Xue's blood-red eyes, as if thousands of graceful graces were flowing.

Then, Huang Yanyao fell into it.

A deep and charming purple and red enveloped Huang Yanyao's vision, as if everything had been dyed with such a hazy and fragmented color, leaving only that touch of blush, that touch of enchantment, that touch of charm.

In this strange and psychedelic shadow, Huang Yanyao heard an intermittent and ethereal hum. Her eyes were dull as she looked forward, only to see a woman with white hair and red eyes, taking slow lotus steps. She was wearing a blood-red dress with flowing tassels like water, and an exceptionally charming, teasing and cynical smile on her face.

The woman was Murong Xue.

"Huh, you are making rapid progress, little girl."

"But it's not good to play with such power in front of my juniors."

In this vague illusion, Huang Yanyao had already lost her spirit, but when Huang Wumeng's voice sounded, cracks began to appear little by little in this purple and red chaotic illusion.

"Ancestor?"

Huang Wumeng's figure appeared behind Huang Yanyao. Before she could react, Huang Wumeng's eyes burst out with the imperial power that could shatter the heaven and earth. Almost in an instant, Murong Xue's shadow and the deep red and purple that filled the sky and earth shattered and dissipated.

Everything is back to normal.

She was still at the gate of the Tongshi Palace. Gu Yunxi was right beside her. She pouted her lips and looked at Lu Mu and Murong Xue with eyes as if she was jealous.

And Murong Xue... their eyes were still meeting, but this time, there was an imperceptible curve at the corner of her mouth, like a little joy after her plan succeeded.

“…Not good.”

Lu Mu grabbed Murong Xue's delicate buttocks, as if foreshadowing that those two soft spots would be in trouble.

Of course he noticed Huang Yanyao's trance. It was only for a very short moment. Normally, she would never be so dazed and confused. It could only be that she was under the influence of "charm".

Murong Xue has become more and more proficient in this art, and has used the power of her Yin Mei body with ease. If Lu Mu did not have absolute trust in Murong Xue, he would probably have believed that the intense sex last night was caused by Murong Xue drugging him.

In fact, he was also full of desire and could not hold back even without any seduction.

An extremely sensitive area was pinched hard, and Murong Xue had to exert a lot of effort to hold back the moan from her throat.

"Xiaoxue... no, Murongxue, right?"

There was a hint of vigilance in Huang Yanyao's eyes.

"It seems that His Highness still remembers me."

Murong Xue smiled sweetly, but the blush at the corners of her eyes made her look even more charming.

Huang Yanyao pursed her lips and looked at her, "Of course I remember you, although the last time we met, you were not as beautiful as you are now."

Murong Xue is indeed very beautiful.

No matter from which angle you look at her, her figure and appearance are stunning. Her beauty is a kind of natural allure that comes with a charming bone structure, especially the emotions contained in her blood-red eyes, which are enough to be described as enchanting.

Just standing there, she was enough to make the heaven and earth pale in comparison, and her elegance and grace were hard to conceal.

Murong Xue was also beautiful in the past, but never like this. Just a simple frown and a smile can make people intoxicated.

"I remember you, too."

Murong Xue smiled like a flower, her eyes moving like spring water in March. "You are not so taciturn now, are you?"

"Then I guess we're both different."

Huang Yanyao raised her eyebrows.

She heard a hint of targeting, but it was not hostility. It was just that when they saw the same beauty, a sense of crisis came over her. Huang Yanyao also had this feeling, but she did not think she was so devoted to Lu Mu, so she was still more indifferent than Murong Xue.

"Okay, although we are not familiar with each other, we have met once. Now, let's do it in advance."

Lu Mu interrupted the undercurrent of temptation between the two.

Murong Xue also thanked Gu Yunxi, and Gu Yunxi knew why. After all, she also contributed to the siege and killing of Murong Zun in the Hidden World Valley. Although this was a "deal" agreed upon with Lu Mu, for Murong Xue, it was revenge for her parents' death.

The four of them formed a team. Li Heng came to see them off in person, and they soon left Tianque City. Huang Yanyao stood on a hill outside the city, looking at her own city, and remained silent for a long time.

Ultimately, she went in a completely different direction.

King Nanling must be killed eventually. If not, my Tianque City will probably suffer disaster in the future.

Moreover, she wanted to eliminate the enemy King Nanling once and for all.

……

Five days later, Zhaotian City.

The last time Lu Mu and Gu Yunxi came here was almost a month ago.

Coming to Zhaotian City again this time, one feels heavy-hearted. Just standing outside the city wall, one can clearly hear the dead silence and panic that permeates the city. The soldiers guarding the city gates are all filled with bloody aura and look deadly. I wonder where the fresh smell of blood comes from.

"There are so many people in this city that exude fear."

Murong Xue played with her hair, a whirlpool appeared in her charming eyes, as if she absorbed the atmosphere of fear that overflowed from the city.

With her charming Taoist body, she is particularly sensitive to emotions.

Gu Yunxi frowned as she looked at the city wall covered with dried corpses, as if Zhaotian City had turned into a disorderly killing field, which made people feel scared.

It shouldn't be like this. Among the twelve major cities controlled by King Nanling, Zhaotian City is the most profitable one. It has the largest fleet in the southern border of the entire imperial dynasty and is an important commercial city. But now there are few travelers, the soldiers have ferocious faces, and look at the corpses hanging on the city walls... What happened in this city?

"Want to go in?"

Lu Mu tilted his head and asked Gu Yunxi.

"Enter."

She did not hesitate at all. After all, she came here for the life of King Nanling, so she could not let go of Zhaotian City while passing by.

Gu Yunxi has not yet forgotten the poor cloth shop owner who had her stomach cut open and her heart dug out by the evil cultivators in the Zhaotian City's palace and feasted on them as food and wine... and the group of children who lived in the alleys and deep courtyards.

Chapter 103: The Withered City

The four of them swaggered into Zhaotian City through the main gate.

The soldiers guarding the city had intended to block the way or even kill people directly, but when they came into Murong Xue's sight, the ferocious soldiers suddenly stopped, as if they had become dull people trapped in a confused illusion, and just followed her gaze and retreated to the side like puppets.

Those with low cultivation levels are completely powerless against Murong Xue's natural charm.

So entering the city was smooth.

There was a barely perceptible look of surprise in Gu Yunxi's eyes. Only a month had passed. She had been in a coma for ten days before and was as weak as a withered flower. When they met again, the change was definitely not small.

Even she didn't dare to look at Murong Xue's face for too long, because she would become dazed if she looked at it for too long. Murong Xue didn't use any charm on her, but her appearance, words and eyes were enough to confuse her. What if she really used some sophisticated and complex charm?

In terms of threat, Xia Jiuxie was nothing in her eyes.

Fortunately, Murong Xue is not an enemy, but a well-behaved bed-warmer beside Lu Mu.

……

Zhaotian City has changed.
