Chapter 12
As night fell, the city was brightly lit.

Following the fragrance of the lotus, she rode away against the wind, to the remote west of the city, to the western mountain.

Xishan is extremely dangerous, with lofty mountains, miasma and poisonous forests, dangerous peaks and cliffs, and fierce beasts and poisonous insects.

After searching for more than an hour, she felt a little tired. Even though her illusion is weak now, her legs and body are healthy.

The moon is already in the middle of the sky.

Going deep into the West Mountain, there are three isolated peaks standing tall, surrounded by a bottomless green lake.

A red lotus bloomed on the lake, which is the red lotus.

In her previous life, she was born with a red lotus.

During a certain period, lotus fragrance emanated from her whole body, which induced the birth of a red lotus. A lotus flower grew in a nearby pool, and there were blood lotus seeds in the lotus pod.

The red lotus felt the arrival of the host, and a fiery red flame rose around it, followed by a white cold mist, and gradually withered, the green lotus leaves dried up, the petals fell off, and the lotus pod was formed.

She was not afraid of the flames and severe cold, and picked the lotus pods. Then the flames and cold mist dissipated, and seven lotus seeds fell on her palm.

She needs to take blood lotus seeds to awaken the fire of red lotus.

After returning to Xiyuan in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zishi has passed.

Ye Chen has been in the courtyard, it's cold late at night, but he dare not go back to his room.

Seeing her come back, Ye Chen hurriedly greeted: "Master."

Under the moonlight, she was wearing a black cloak, her face was translucent white, her eyes were deep and dark, and her pupils were like lacquer.

"Are you afraid of death?"

"I'm not afraid." He never expected to be alive. His current life was bestowed by his master, and everything he has in the future will belong to his master.

"In that case, take it." She took out a crystal clear blood-colored lotus seed.

Ye Chen thought it was poison to restrain him, after all, in the dark prison, he had seen businessmen use this method to prevent slaves from escaping.

"Yes, master." Ye Chen took it without a doubt, put it in his mouth and swallowed it without tasting anything.

"I don't want to hear any voice, otherwise, I will send you away early." After saying that, she walked away on the dead leaves.

Ye Chen looked bewildered, what does the master mean by this?
"I hope to hear your voice tomorrow. I don't want to clean up the corpse." She suddenly turned her head, met his eyes, smiled strangely, and then crossed the wall and disappeared into the back mountain.

Before Ye Chen could understand her words, he felt a sudden discomfort in his body.

It seems that there is a flame and ice rushing around in the body, the meridian is breaking, and the heart vein is reshaping. This kind of pain is probably the feeling of being pierced by ice.

Ye Chen fell to the ground and bit his lip, trying not to make any sound.
