In the dense forest, the trees were thick and dense, blocking out the sun, and the road was rugged and uneven, posing a great obstacle to the pursuers.

Relying on her familiarity with the terrain, the Snow Girl constantly changed directions to avoid the pursuers.

Although the pursuers were numerous and powerful, they were unable to take advantage of the dense forest and could only watch Xue Nu and Fusu escape further and further away.

After an unknown amount of time, the Snow Girl finally escaped from the pursuers and came to a hidden valley.

The Snow Girl took Fusu down from the horse and let him lie on a flat stone.

"Master Fusu, we are safe." The Snow Girl gently stroked Fusu's cheek, her tone full of tenderness.

Fusu slowly opened his eyes and saw the Snow Girl. There was a trace of confusion in his eyes: "Where... are we?"

"We are safe now, Prince Fusu." The Snow Girl said softly.

Fusu struggled to sit up, but his body was so weak that he had no strength at all.

"Master Fusu, you should have a good rest. I will go find some water and food." said the Snow Girl.

The Snow Girl got up, walked deep into the valley, found a stream, filled her water bag with water, picked some wild fruits, and returned to Fusu.

"Master Fusu, drink some water and eat some wild fruits." The Snow Girl handed the water bag and wild fruits to Fusu.

Fusu took the water bag and wild fruits, slowly drank a few sips of water, ate a few wild fruits, and felt much better.

"Thank you, Miss Snow Girl." Fusu said gratefully.

"You're welcome, Master Fusu. This is what I should do." The Snow Girl said with a smile.

Fusu looked at the Snow Girl, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes. He knew that the Snow Girl risked her life to save him for him.

"Ms. Snow Girl, why did you save me?" Fusu asked.

A trace of pain flashed in the snow girl's eyes, and she said slowly: "Because... because I don't want to see you get hurt."

Fusu felt warm in his heart, he felt that the Snow Girl's concern for him was sincere.

"Miss Snow Girl, don't worry, I will definitely repay your kindness." Fusu said firmly.

The Snow Girl shook her head and said, "Master Fusu, you don't have to repay me. I just did what I should do."

Just then, footsteps suddenly came from the distance.

Xue Nu and Fusu's faces changed. They knew that the pursuers were catching up with them again.

"Master Fusu, let's go!" The Snow Girl pulled Fusu up and ran towards the depths of the valley.

The pursuers were hot on their heels and were about to catch up with Xue Nu and Fusu.

Suddenly, the Snow Girl stopped, turned around and looked at the pursuers, with a flash of determination in her eyes.

"Master Fusu, please go quickly, I will stop them!" said the Snow Girl.

"Miss Snow Girl, I can't leave you alone!" Fusu said.

"Prince Fusu, you must listen to me. You must stay alive. Only if you stay alive can you avenge the State of Yan!" said the Snow Girl in a firm tone.

Fusu looked at the Snow Girl's determined eyes, his heart filled with emotion and reluctance.

"Take care, Snow Girl!" Fusu said, then turned and ran towards the depths of the valley.

The Snow Girl looked at Fusu's receding back and a tear flashed in her eyes.

The pursuers have already rushed to the Snow Girl. They surrounded her, pointed their swords at her, and their eyes were full of murderous intent.

"Snow Girl, just surrender!" said a leading pursuer. Snow Girl sneered and said, "If you want to catch me, it depends on whether you have the ability to do it!"

After saying that, the Snow Girl drew the sword from her waist and rushed towards the pursuers.

The Snow Girl's figure was as fast as lightning, and her sword was as bright as snow, as she flew among the pursuers. She danced gracefully, but her moves were deadly. Suddenly, screams were heard everywhere, and blood dyed the snow in the valley red. However, she was outnumbered, and the Snow Girl's body gradually gained scars, and her movements began to slow down.

At this moment, a deafening dragon roar was heard at the entrance of the valley. Then, a huge black dragon descended from the sky, blocking out the sun and hovering over the valley. On the dragon's back stood a man in a black dragon robe, who was the Great Qin Emperor Ying Yuan.

Ying Yuan looked down at the fierce battle between the Snow Girl and the pursuers below, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "A bunch of ants dare to be so presumptuous in front of this emperor!"

He waved his hand and a powerful innate energy gushed out from his palm, instantly knocking the pursuers away and scattering them to the ground like kites with broken strings.

When Xue Nu saw Ying Yuan, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she soon regained her composure. She put away her sword and bowed slightly to Ying Yuan: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving me."

Ying Yuan jumped down from the dragon's back and landed steadily in front of the Snow Girl. He looked her up and down, with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "As expected of the eldest daughter of the Mo family, she is indeed extraordinary."

"Your Majesty, thank you for the compliment." The Snow Girl said lightly.

"Why are you here? And why are you being chased?" Ying Yuan asked.

Xue Nu hesitated for a moment, but still told Ying Yuan what had happened.

After listening to Xue Nu's story, Ying Yuan's eyes flashed with anger: "How dare Zhao Gao, this dog slave, be so bold!"

"Your Majesty, Prince Fusu is now seriously injured. Please treat him first." said the Snow Girl.

Ying Yuan nodded, he walked to Fusu and checked his injuries.

"Prince Fusu is seriously injured and needs treatment as soon as possible." Ying Yuan said.

"Your Majesty, I have some healing pills here." The Snow Girl said, taking out an exquisite porcelain bottle from her arms and handing it to Ying Yuan.

Ying Yuan took the porcelain bottle, opened the cap, and a strong medicinal aroma filled his nose. He poured out a pill and fed it to Fusu.

After taking the pill, Fusu's complexion gradually improved and his breathing became steady.

Ying Yuan looked at Xue Nu, his eyes full of gratitude: "Thank you, Miss Xue Nu, for saving me. I am very grateful."

"Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is what I should do," said the Snow Girl.

Ying Yuan nodded. He looked at the Snow Girl, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

"Miss Snow Girl, I have something I would like to ask you for help with." Ying Yuan said.

"Your Majesty, please speak." said the Snow Girl.

"I would like to ask you to stay with me and be my concubine." Ying Yuan said.

When Xue Nu heard Ying Yuan’s words, she was shocked. She didn’t expect Ying Yuan to make such a request.

"Your Majesty, I..." The Snow Girl wanted to refuse, but she didn't know how to start.

"Miss Snow Girl, I know you have concerns in your heart, but I can assure you that I will treat you well." Ying Yuan said.

The Snow Girl was silent for a moment, but finally nodded: "I obey your order."

Ying Yuan was overjoyed to see that Xue Nu agreed to his request. He hugged Xue Nu and whispered in her ear: "From now on, you are my woman."

The Snow Girl did not say anything, but just snuggled silently in Ying Yuan's arms.

After returning to the Xianyang Palace, Ying Yuan immediately ordered that Xue Nu be named Xue Fei and granted her a luxurious palace.

The news that Snow Girl became a concubine soon spread throughout the harem. The concubines in the harem were full of jealousy and hostility towards Snow Girl. (End of this chapter)
