Nangong Liuyun’s Past – since his various diseases keep popping up, may as well go in-depth. Otherwise it’s just:

*Enemy appears*
*NL being all OP*
*Leg pain*
*Almost dies*
Reader’s thoughts: He really can’t perform under pressure….

Recap – Su Luo’s fatal injuries are cured when she eats the Red Black Blood Ginseng, causing her blood to develop healing and cultivation boosting qualities. News of this leaks to one of the 10 powers, Wei Yang Palace’s Mo family, who plan to drain her dry. They manage to escape towards Bei Mo, but Nangong Liuyun is injured while fighting the Mo family ancestor. Su Luo feeds him her blood to cure him, when Nangong Liuyun explains his past and the reason for his illness.

However, before she can even cut, her right elbow is pulled away.

Su Luo turns her head, unexpectedly meeting Nangong Liuyun’s gaze.

“You’re awake?” Su Luo excitedly exclaims, tossing her dagger away.

Exhausted, Nangong Liuyun manages a weak smile, evoking more sympathy with his pale and sickly complexion.

“Silly girl.” Nangong Liuyun raises his hand, patting her head.

“Who’s a silly girl, you’re the one that’s a silly girl. I was almost frightened to death because of you.” Su Luo huffs angrily.

“Alright alright, your husband was wrong…. Your husband deeply apologizes…. Okay?” Nangong Liuyun’s voice carries a hint of ridicule, teasing Su Luo like always, as though he hadn’t been injured.

“Why are you wasting words on such baseless things? It’s better if you don’t speak and just focus on nursing your wounds.” As she speaks, Su Luo becomes more anxious.

The current Nangong Liuyun appears as pale as snow, without even a trace of colour, tearing Su Luo’s heart just watching him.

“Don’t you have something to ask?” Nangong Liuyun cheekily pulls at the hair falling near her forehead.

Su Luo ponders for a moment, before finally asking “Back then when you severely injured the old man Mo, why didn’t we just kill him then, and remove the problem at its root?”

Nangong Liuyun unexpectedly smiles, lightly rubbing Su Luo’s nose. “Actually, what you really want to ask is, in such a critical moment, why did my strength suddenly explode?”

He can even guess this? He’s indeed the world’s number one black belly, the sinister and crafty His Highness Prince Jin. Su Luo humphs twice, but can’t help but concede “That was the second question, but you can answer them together.”

Nangong Liuyun smiles, but still answers Su Luo from the depths of his heart “There’s an extremely powerful energy sealed inside me.”

Sitting up, Nangong Liuyun hugs Su Luo, letting her lean against his chest as his chin rests on her head.

He pauses, before continuing “This force is truly overwhelming, but it also comes with huge repercussions.”

“What repercussions?” Su Luo asks, filled with concern.

“It’s hard to say. For example, a few years back, when I first tried to use this force, my body was still too weak to bear such a tremendous power. Since then, every month on the night of the full moon…”

Nangong Liuyun’s words trail off, but Su Luo already understands.

The night of every full moon, Nangong Liuyun’s body will turn weak, while the pain in his legs will become unbearable. It’s said that she can only cure him after becoming a Grand Master Apothecarist.

To think… to think it was the backlash from the first time he’s used this force.

Nangong Liuyun’s status is an Imperial Prince, while his talent is unequalled. Exactly what type of situation would force him to use this power?

Su Luo’s eyes wander around, yet she doesn’t ask aloud. The scars hidden deep in Nangong Liuyun’s heart, if he doesn’t want to tell her, why would she try to uncover it?

However, Nangong Liuyun seemed to be in a good mood to converse, and he begins to recount the truth about those years, hidden in the dust of the past.

Nangong Liuyun’s body has the light, fragrant smell of grass, yet the past he tells Su Luo causes her heart to tightly constrict.

Actually upon reflection, the story is really very simple, it’s just an average harem power struggle.

Back then, Nangong Liuyun’s mother was the Emperor’s favoured Bao Guifei, and the Emperor openly bestowed her with the Bao (treasured) character, showing just how fond he was of her. Yet it was also this affection that caused Bao Guifei’s light to be snuffed out so early.
