The Xuanyin Valley.

The white fog swirled around it and made it look ethereal.

A group of white-clad maids lightly walked into the pavilion and placed fruit trays onto the stone table.

In the pavilion, a white-robed man turned to the gorgeous girl sitting beside him and slightly raised the corners of his mouth, “Yu'er, the ancestor of our Xuanyin Valley foretold that today a man would appear in the Xuanyin Mountains, who would become the king of the continent, so we must establish a close relations.h.i.+p with him. For the sake of the Xuanyin Valley, I'm asking you to sacrifice yourself.”

The gorgeous woman paused, a dim light in her beautiful eyes. “Father, that young lord remains unconscious. What should I do?”

The man smiled, “According to our ancestor's prophecy, he'll wake up sooner or later. How can he become the king of the world if he remains unconscious? Besides, I want to hold a wedding for you and him first. What has been done cannot be undone. It'll be too late for him to change anything after he wakes up…”

He didn't mind sacrificing his only daughter for the sake of the Xuanyin Valley!

Nothing was more important to him than profits.

“Yes, I see.”

Hunyu raised her gorgeous face, her face resolute.

She didn't mind marrying a stranger if it could revitalize the Xuanyin Valley. Besides, the man was not only handsome but also had great potential. It was not a bad choice to marry him.

“But Father,” Hunyu rolled her eyes and asked, “the young lord is still unconscious, so I don't know whether he has been married or not. If he already has a wife, do I have to be his concubine?”

The man looked at Hunyu and smiled faintly. “Yu'er, I don't know whether he has a fiancée or not, but I can tell that he is still a virgin. If you become his first woman, you'll always have an important position in his heart!”

Hunyu was relieved when she heard this. She smiled and stood up. “Father, I'm going back to my room.”

Then she turned away and walked slowly toward the backyard…

Looking at her receding figure, the man smiled.

Instead of returning to her room, Hunyu walked into a luxurious room. On the big bed in the room, a man lay quietly. He frowned as if suffering a great pain, but even so, no one could ignore his kingly aura. This man, even in the pain, didn't lose his kingly aura! He was so powerful that her heart began to beat violently when she looked at him.

Hunyu slowed down and slowly walked toward the man.

“I don't know what happened to you and why you became like this. Even our physicians can't find out the cause of your illness.” She smiled softly and reached out her slender, jade-like fingers to caress his face, “But don't worry. I'll wake you up. A man like you shouldn't be stuck like this forever.”

Her hand was about to fall on the man's handsome face…

At that time, with a boom, a strong spiritual energy came out from the man's body and instantly slammed Hunyu's body away.

Poof!

Hunyu spat out a mouthful of blood and looked up at the man in shock only to find that he was still lying in bed, unconscious and motionless.

“Why, why did it happen?”
