Chapter Eighty-two: Warm Palm

  Luosi didn't expect that her reunion with Tang Xiaoxia would be under such circumstances. Her initial joy at seeing Tang Xiaoxia was somewhat dampened by his exaggerated behavior, and after Tang Xiaoxia straightened up and saw the angry look on her face, he put away his exaggerated smile and replaced it with a faint one.

  Tang Xiaoxia walked to the side of the bonfire and was forced back a few steps by the huge heat wave. Luosiqi saw him say something to King Chu, who looked hesitant after listening, but still ordered his men to extinguish one side of the bonfire. Tang Xiaoxia came to the giant ice block where Luosiqi was from the passage left by King Chu, and Luosiqi smiled as he raised his right hand over his head and placed his palm on the ice block. The piercing cold made him frown, but soon an astonishing scene appeared.

  Chapter 82: Warm Palm In the moment when Tang Xiaoxiao's right palm came into contact with the ice block, water began to slowly seep out. The speed of the flowing ice water grew faster and faster. Luo Sijie saw that Tang Xiaoxiao's hand was like it was being pressed into a snowman piled up in winter, slowly sinking in, slowly extending into the ice.

  As he slowly pressed his palm down, until a small hole that could only fit his right hand appeared, his right hand began to move horizontally to the right. As his right hand moved, the place where he had melted was no longer a small hole, but a straight line extending horizontally from the small hole!

  This line moved two feet wide and began to bend downward, and Lucy realized that Tang Xiaoxia was going to open a door for her on this ice block.

  Tang Xiaoxia's door was soon painted, and the ice door made by humans only didn't fall down due to inertia. It seemed that it still needed a little external force to be opened. Tang Xiaoxia retreated to one side, slightly bent her waist, and made a light gesture to Luosiqi. This time, Luosiqi didn't use too much effort, she just placed her right hand on the ice door that Tang Xiaoxia had just painted for her, and gently pushed it. The door then fell down in front of her with a loud crash.

  Lucy's ice summoned by her mind was so solid! The ice door, after withstanding the eighty-second chapter of warmth in the palm, heavily smashed onto the brick-paved ground without even a single piece shattering off, but instead some of the bricks on the ground were cracked open.

  She didn't care about that, in front of the King of Chu and many soldiers, she rushed to Tang Xiao Shrimp without any regard, tightly hugging him, startling the surrounding voices that couldn't be controlled, she knew the King of Chu was watching her from behind! Tang Xiao Shrimp also felt a bit embarrassed and wanted to push her away, but she whispered in his ear: "Let me hug you for a while, little shrimp, if you push me again, I'll get angry!"

  She had originally tried to push away her gentle strength, but it suddenly disappeared without a trace. Tang Xiaoxia's hands didn't know where to put them, he didn't dare to put his arm around her waist like Luosiqi in front of everyone, he could only let his hands hang down like a wooden puppet, letting Luosiqi hold him until she wanted to let go.

  Luosi didn't see what Tang Xiaoxia saw at this time. The king of Chu's face, which had been shocked by Tang Xiaoxia's performance just now, suddenly sank down at this moment. Fei Wujin saw the situation and hurriedly coughed twice behind Luosi, saying to her: "I said Shennü, it's not early, let's go back to the palace! Also, let the king arrange a place for your brother!"

  Fei Wuji didn't speak, which was good. But as soon as he did, it reminded Luosi Qi, who immediately let go of Tang Xiaoxia and turned to face the King of Chu: "Your Majesty, what are you thinking? Why haven't you had this traitor dragged out and killed yet? How can you still let him stand here speaking? Have you forgotten how Mo Ye assassinated you?"

  Chu Ping Wang was tongue-tied by Luo Siqi's continuous questioning, not knowing what to say. In fact, if it were up to Luo Siqi's current mood, she would have liked to dismember Fei Wuji into eight pieces immediately! This guy had been causing her endless trouble since she first entered the Spring and Autumn era, starting with instigating Wu Xie to betray the Wu family and nearly killing her. Then, he secretly colluded with the Night God Sect, ambushing the Moon God Sect's Grand Priestess Chen Xing when Han Yue came looking for her. Who could have thought that this ambush was just a prelude to later events? His collusion with Mo Ye later led to a massive attack on Lin Yue Peak, forcing Tang Xiao Yu to jump off the cliff in desperation! And this wasn't even counting the trouble he caused her after she entered the palace by colluding with Mo Ye!

  But the King of Chu said to Luosi Qi after opening his mouth: "Fei Wujin was actually also forced by Mo Ye to participate in the assassination, Goddess, you are tired, even if you are not tired, your Shixiong will be tired after traveling long distances. Let's go back and rest with Ben Wang first, and we'll discuss Fei Wujin's matter tomorrow morning when everyone has recovered."

  Luosi still wanted to ask Chu Wang tonight why he was keeping Fei Wujin, but she felt Tang Xiaoxia suddenly grasped her hand and slightly used force, clearly indicating that she should not ask further. His palm was warm, warming Luosi so much that she didn't want to ruin the warmth of her reunion with Tang Xiaoxia tonight. She looked at Fei Wujin beside Chu Wang, who didn't dare look up, and thought: "You have your day too!" So she gave up insisting and replied to Chu Wang with a smile: "Okay! I'll obey!"

  This night, Luosi Qi was also really tired from the commotion. She saw that Tang Xiaoxia also had a tired face, so she gave up her plan to have a midnight conversation with him. After returning to the palace, they parted ways, and at her request, Tang Xiaoxia was arranged to stay in a large house that was hastily vacated, which was originally prepared for Mo Jue to protect Chu Wang conveniently, not too far from her.

  Luosiqi couldn't help but sigh when she thought of Mojiao, as she had been unwilling to accept the fact that her trusted subordinate was actually Moye.

  He betrayed her, and instead of helping her protect King Chu, he became the one who really wanted to kill King Chu.

  But did he really betray her? He was originally planning to enter the palace and assassinate King Chu. Even when she first arrived in Chu, if it weren't for his subordinates acting too early and forcing her to take action, perhaps King Chu would have already died at her hands.

  Luoshi thought of this and couldn't help but think of Wu Zixu, who should have escaped to the State of Wu by now. If her previous intention to kill the King of Chu was to help him, then she is now obstructing Mo Ye everywhere and protecting him instead. Does that count as a betrayal of this friend?

  She lay on the bed, watching the candlelight coming in from outside the brocade curtain, comforting herself that she was not betraying him, because Wu Zixu had not asked her to come to Doucheng to avenge his family by killing the King of Chu. She just wanted to do her best for her friend, but unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.

  She thought of Tang Xiaoxia holding her hand, and his palm was still warm. He had used this hand to melt the ice block that she had summoned, which many fires couldn't melt. The temperature of Tang Xiaoxia's palm was very warm for Luosi Qi, who had just walked out of the ice. However, before falling asleep with her eyes closed, Luosi Qi still had a question: "The ice she summoned under the fear of death didn't seem to be ordinary ice. This could be inferred from how the soldiers later tried every method but found it difficult to rescue her from the ice. So, how much heat would be needed to melt such an extraordinary ice block? Tang Xiaoxia's hand was still warm and soft after melting the ice block. Did he also have some unimaginable adventures during their time apart?"
