After conquering seven male favorites, the vicious heroine wants to run away

Chapter 181 Life is like a dream
Yu Changfeng pulled her arm slightly, and she went limp and fell into his arms.

"Warm, wake up."

He called softly to the drowsy woman in his arms, and reached out to pinch her soft little face.

"If you don't wake up soon, I'm going to jump off the cliff with you in my arms."

Seeing through the confusion and facing his inner fears, his eyes darted around, fixed on her red lips. Without thinking, he lowered his head and bit down hard.

A sharp pain shot through her lips, and the strong taste of blood filled her mouth. Shi Nuanyu frowned and suddenly became alert, reaching out to hook her arms around the man's neck in retaliation.

With a forceful bite, blood trickled from the man's lips.

She released him with disgust and carefully licked her lips.

"Have you gone mad? What are you trying to do?"

Why did he bite her for no reason, and why did he bite her so hard? Her lips are chapped and she won't be able to eat spicy food for a while.

The thought of missing out on the delicious food filled her with anger.

"Yu Changfeng, I'm angry."

Yu Changfeng's narrow eyes were dark and unfathomable as he stared intently at the bloodstains on her lips.

I never knew Nuannuan was so alluring.

It was impossible for her not to notice his burning gaze; Shi Nuanyu covered her lips and glared at him angrily.

"Shut your dog eyes."

“Don’t close it,” Yu Changfeng said, swinging his long arm around her waist and forcefully lifting her up. “Nuan Nuan, jumping off a cliff is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I will die with you.”

Just as Shi Nuanyu was about to curse, a pair of large hands restrained her from behind, and a man's passionate kiss landed on her lips.

You idiot, spouting such childish, cringeworthy lines.

Jumping off a cliff? She doesn't want to die!!!
A feeling of weightlessness washed over them as they experienced dizziness and lightheadedness, and the howling wind seemed to tear their bodies apart.

Shi Nuanyu's heart pounded like a drum, and she closed her eyes, not daring to look down the cliff.

Yu Changfeng is a complete madman.

In the original book, he became a tyrant despised by the people of Beilin, a stark contrast to Qinghe, who loved his people like his own children.

"Nuan Nuan, open your eyes."

A deep, magnetic voice whispered in her ear, tempting her to open her eyes. She shook her head and buried her face in his chest.

Yu Changfeng chuckled softly and pinched the soft flesh around her waist as a threat.

"If you don't open your eyes, I'll throw you down."

Looking at the trembling woman in his arms, he wrapped one arm around her waist and used the other hand to hold onto the chain on the cliff, leaving the two of them suspended in mid-air.

Feeling the hand around her waist slowly loosen, Shi Nuanyu hugged his neck tightly, crying out helplessly.

"Yu Changfeng, what did I do to offend you that you treat me like this?"

She clung to him with both hands and feet, and Shi Nuanyu, still angry, bit his ear, her tears falling uncontrollably onto his neck.

"Yu Changfeng, I know I treated you badly before. I'm sorry, I apologize. Please don't kill me."

She just wanted to live a good life and have a sweet romance; she really didn't want to die now.

Shi Nuanyu closed her eyes and sobbed, "At worst, I'll never appear in front of you again. I'll go my way, and you go yours, sob sob sob..."

“You dare,” Yu Changfeng spat out two words, his icy blue eyes flashing with ferocity, “Shi Nuanyu, if you dare to leave the heavens above and the earth below, I will definitely catch up with you and kill you.”

She had promised him she would never leave him, yet she dared to entertain thoughts of leaving him.

Shi Nuanyu cried so hard she could barely breathe, "Waaah, Yu Changfeng, you're so mean."

Not only did he inexplicably lead her to jump off a cliff, but he also threatened her.

Her life is so miserable!

Her ears and neck were wet with the woman's tears, but even though she was crying like that, she didn't open her eyes.

Yu Changfeng, both amused and exasperated, awkwardly pulled his arms back and coaxed, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have threatened Nuannuan. Nuannuan, open your eyes and look at me. If you open your eyes, I'll take you upstairs."

"Really," Shi Nuanyu sobbed, her eyes blurry with tears. She cautiously opened her eyes, her lips pursed, and met the man's pained gaze. She could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

"Yu Changfeng, you may be handsome, but you're really wicked." The cliff was shrouded in mist, the pervasive clouds seeming to possess a strange, magical power that guided her.

what?
Yu Changfeng watched helplessly as the woman's bright eyes gradually became dull, until she fainted in his arms.

He loosened the chains, carried her, and slowly descended, tenderly stroking her eyebrows and eyes.

Foolish woman, you must wake up soon.

Several men were already waiting at the bottom of the cliff, their gazes falling in unison on the unconscious woman.

"How is your highness?"

He watched her longingly from the sidelines, not daring to approach her.

"Just as the Holy Son said, Nuan Nuan fainted upon seeing the mist."

The cliff is about 100 feet high, with man-made stone steps and chains carved into its walls.

The bottom of the cliff was simply the training ground for successive martial arts alliance leaders, complete with houses and utensils.

Yu Changfeng carried her into the house and gently placed her on the bed.

The calming incense burning in the room helped Shi Nuanyu's furrowed brows slowly relax.

Fusheng sat by the bedside and took her pulse. "Just as I predicted yesterday, Nuannuan has fallen victim to Fusheng Ruomeng."

Seeing the puzzled looks on their faces, he explained, "Life is but a dream, yet it is not a poison. Those who are poisoned are drawn into the dream, and their fears are amplified."

If Nuannuan cannot awaken on her own, she will continue to experience nightmares, eventually dying from exhaustion.

A flash of bloodlust crossed Yu Changfeng's eyes. "Who has deliberately approached Nuannuan these past few days?"

Anyone who dares to brazenly poison people right under their noses deserves to die.

The men's faces were grim, their eyes filled with murderous intent.

Fusheng warns, "Those who are in a dreamlike state will experience the effects of the poison in three days, and today is the third day."

Therefore, the poison was planted three days ago.

Thinking back to what happened a few days ago, I haven't tried to pick out the most suspicious person.

Three days ago, Nuannuan was resting in the pavilion. When I arrived, I saw a strange man in the pavilion as well.

The man appeared four times: at the official road post station, outside the pavilion of Chunri Tower, outside the courtyard wall of Chunri Tower, and among the twenty-five participants in the Martial Arts Alliance Grand Competition.

"Could it be him?"

He didn't know anything about the man, but his appearance was truly a coincidence.

Hua Lingyan gripped her sword. "I'll go kill him and get the antidote."

"Wait a minute," Yu Changfeng suppressed the violent killing intent in his heart, "Is there an antidote for 'Life is Like a Dream'?"

When the incense in the room burned out, Fusheng took out some more incense from the medicine box to refill it.

"Life is but a dream, not a poison, and there is no cure for it."

He took out a white jade bottle from among the bottles and jars, poured out a pill the size of a bean, and fed it into Shi Nuanyu's mouth.

"There is no cure, are there any other solutions?"

Tao Huiyan, standing to the side, said with certainty, "Young Master Fusheng, please feel free to speak up and give any instructions you may have."

The Tao family has been merchants for generations, so he can find even the most precious medicinal herbs.

Fusheng took out a stick of incense. "This is a guiding incense. Those who enter the dream must have strong willpower to maintain their sanity and bring those trapped in the dream back to reality."

After a long silence, he revealed the consequences: "If they cannot escape the dream within three incense sticks' time, they will both die from exhaustion of their vital energy."

There are two possible solutions: either Shi Nuanyu leaves the dream on her own, or she is awakened and brought out of the dream by someone.

"Think carefully, everyone. Once you enter the dream world, your life or death is irrelevant."

The four of them spoke in unison, "I'll go."

Fusheng calmly analyzed, "Young Master Tao is physically weak, Young Master Wei was greatly injured in the competition, and Young Master Hua has too much killing intent; none of them should enter my dreams."

Knowing the answer all along, Yu Changfeng smiled and said, "Gentlemen, it would be impolite to refuse."
