Chapter 912 The Dark River Chronicles 244 (End)
After watching it, one is easily impacted both visually and psychologically, leaving both Xiaoxue and Daxue wanting more.
After coaxing the two children and the adults, Li Chu made an excuse that it was getting late and went back to her room to rest.
Actually, she went directly to the front mountain to watch the scene of selecting brides to enter the palace.
She had already ruled out all areas on the back mountain; there was no one else there except her.
This time, there will definitely be someone from our own faction among the brides to be chosen.
As soon as Li Chu arrived at the location, he witnessed the infamous scene of poisoning.
Gong Ziyu led the brides out of the dungeon, but they were intercepted by Gong Yuanzheng, who poisoned the brides to test them.
She also saw Mu Yumo and Mu Xuewei in the crowd; they were the only two people who had come with her.
Both of them had some knowledge of poisons, so they knew what kind of poison it was and did not act rashly.
After seeing that they had settled into the women's quarters without incident, Li Chu sent a telepathic message to them, telling them not to act rashly and to be careful.
She didn't show up tonight. After finding out who had come, she went back to the back mountain.
Just like in the original story, one of the assassins, Wushen, was exposed among the brides.
Later, both the young master and the Blade Master suddenly died, and Gong Ziyu of the Feather Palace became the new Blade Master.
The brides-to-be are temporarily staying in the women's quarters, awaiting news.
A few days later, when Li Chu went to the front mountain again, he was stopped by Bai Hehuai.
"Li Chu, you've finally arrived. I have something urgent to tell you."
"What do you mean?" She sensed that it must be related to the women's guesthouse.
"I only found out about Mu Yumo and Mu Xuewei's situation a few days ago when I came into contact with them because they suddenly had to abide by a new rule that they must stay at the palace gate."
Bai Hehuai knew that the brides-to-be were entering the palace, so he naturally tried to find out more about it.
"Oh? That's strange?"
"Yes, they were added at the last minute. But it seems they now have two identities. Everyone only has one level of internal energy, so they are quite passive in many things. That's why I wanted to discuss it with you."
Li Chu is different from everyone else; they've always known that.
Whether it was because she was too strong or because her cultivation path was different, she seemed to be much stronger than them even when she was restricted.
Upon hearing this, Li Chu thought for a moment and said, "Then let's muddy the waters so that they can all stay for now."
"The situation is already chaotic, how can we muddy it up further?" Bai Hehuai didn't understand many things, so he couldn't think things through comprehensively.
"Go and tell them..."
"Okay, I understand. Your idea is good."
After discussing it, the two went to make their own preparations.

Recently, rumors have been circulating throughout the palace that there is more than one assassin among the brides to be chosen.
Originally, the elders and the various palaces had discussed sending the remaining brides away after the selection process, but this was immediately changed to a temporary stay at the Chengdu Women's Guest House.
Once everyone's identity has been verified and all documents are in order, the selection of spouses will begin, and those who are not chosen will be sent away.
Mu Yumo and Mu Xuewei also stayed behind.
The two women took the map and information about the palace gates that Li Chu had given them and sent a message back to Wu Feng.
As for the poison they ingested before entering the palace, the Half-Moon Fly, they will be fine once they leave the world of rules.
Under these circumstances, the timeline for the final battle between Gongmen and Wufeng was also accelerated.
In the shadows, Li Chu also warned the people at the palace gate that Wu Feng was about to attack and that they should be prepared.
They'll have a battle sooner or later; it doesn't matter how they fight, it'll all be bizarre anyway.
As long as this world doesn't completely disappear, those who die during the storyline can be resurrected.
Only after this battle is over can they leave.
On the day Wu Feng broke into the palace, Li Chu and the others were just taking advantage of the chaos and only concerned with protecting themselves.
After Gongmen and Wufeng were both severely injured, everyone returned safely after the battle.
I only found out about the reward the next day when I saw a group of construction workers coming to build a house.
Next to Li Chu's house, five houses with a similar style to her villa were built.
Their reward was a house, and Li Chu's was something that would help with cultivation, so everyone was very satisfied.
After resting for two days, Su Changhe and his friends went to register for driving tests; those who were interested all went.
After getting their driver's licenses, they were each assigned a car.
When we have time, we can go on a trip together, or a road trip.
Li Chu and Su Changhe got their marriage certificate the following year. Because there weren't many people, they only had a simple wedding.
As for children, they never planned to have any in either of their lives.
Su Muyu and Bai Hehuai, and Mu Xuewei and Mu Qingyang, these two couples also got together.
They had a child, and everyone treated it like their own.
In the world of rules, people would enter every once in a while, but it didn't happen as frequently later on.
Sometimes I go in once a year, and sometimes I go in once every few years.
As time went on, everyone had fully integrated into this new world.
In a world governed by rules, people gradually develop rich experience and can navigate it with ease.
Li Chu remains the same, acting according to her heart and doing whatever makes her comfortable.
She and Su Changhe are both free-spirited people, and they often go on trips together to enjoy some time alone.
Do what you want to do.

Decades later—
When I experienced the pain of separation for the second time, I realized that this time it was a truly final farewell.
Although Su Changhe was mentally prepared, he still felt empty inside.
Li Chu also felt a bit emotional and reluctant to part ways. This was the first time she had spent two lifetimes with someone who carried her past memories.
But she recovered quickly from this emotional state; she was destined not to stay.
"You must take good care of yourself from now on," Su Changhe said with a smile, then left with a mixture of regret and relief.
Looking at him, who would never wake up again, Li Chu remained silent for a long while before finally speaking: "Okay."
A year later, her life came to an end.
Back in the system space, Zhong Ning's eyes were expressionless: "Xiao Qi, settle the account."
Xiao Qi nodded: "Okay, host."
