Meanwhile, in the Demon Palace's main hall.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the demonic seeds have been rampant recently, and many cultivators in the Demon Realm have been affected." As soon as Jiaqi entered the main hall, he reported to Qin An.

"Oh? Have you found anything?" Qin An tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the throne.

"According to my investigation, it seems that someone in the Demon Realm is colluding with an unknown force to spread demonic seeds everywhere. Currently, their latest area of ​​activity is Tianxiang Pavilion in the Human Realm." Li Yuan quickly told Qin An the results of her investigation.

“In that case, I will go there myself.” Qin An stood up from his throne and told Jia Qi and Li Yuan his decision.

"Your Majesty!" Jiaqi and Liyuan's faces were full of disapproval.

"Don't try to persuade me anymore, my mind is made up." Qin An waved his hand at them, stopping them from speaking.

What Jiaqi and Liyuan didn't know was that when Qin An heard about Tianxiang Pavilion in the human realm, he had a premonition that if he went there this time, he would gain something unexpected.

Qin An decided to trust his intuition and proposed that he wanted to take the trip.

"You two tell me about the situation at Tianxiang Pavilion."

As soon as Qin An finished speaking, he saw Jia Qi and Li Yuan looking like they wanted to say something but couldn't.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with Tianxiang Pavilion?" Qin An asked, somewhat puzzled.

"No, it's just..."

"This Tianxiang Pavilion is a brothel. It has both ordinary women for mortals to play with and famous courtesans for cultivators to enjoy." Jia Qi mustered his courage and said what he wanted to say.

"A brothel?!" Qin An was genuinely surprised this time.

"I was afraid that such a place would offend Your Majesty's eyes, so I..." Jiaqi said, bowing his head deeply.

"No need to say more, I understand what you mean. However, I still need to make a trip to Tianxiang Pavilion."

"Your subordinate dares to ask, I wish to go with Your Majesty!" Jiaqi boldly stated his request, then lowered his head.

"No need," Qin An waved his hand. "Just consider it as me going for a walk to clear my head."

"Yes! We understand!" Jiaqi and Liyuan said in unison.

"By the way, when I go to the mortal realm, I'll leave all the affairs of this Demon Palace to you and Li Yuan." As Qin An was about to leave, he remembered something and left with these words. "Anyone who disobeys my orders will be killed without exception."

"Your subordinates obey!" Jiaqi and Liyuan accepted Qin An's order, understanding that Qin An had entrusted them with the power of life and death over those traitors.

"Hmm." Qin An was relieved. He walked out of the Demon Palace and headed towards the human world.

...

At this moment, Shu Lan and a group of disciples were sitting on an airship, heading towards the mortal realm.

This time, Ye Feiyu, Kong Xiang, and Zhang Keke all came along.

Right now, Ye Feiyu and Zhang Keke are gathered around Shu Lan, chattering away about the mission and the fun things in the human world.

Kong Xiang stood silently to one side, sword in hand, his gaze occasionally falling on Ye Feiyu. Seeing Ye Feiyu's enthusiastic expression, a slight smile crept onto Kong Xiang's lips.

As Zhang Keke spoke, her gaze fell on Kong Xiang and Ye Feiyu. Neither of them noticed her gaze, and Kong Xiang did not look away from Ye Feiyu. Seeing their behavior, Zhang Keke chuckled with delight.

Shu Lan responded to their words from time to time, but her thoughts were racing, and she was clearly not in the right state of mind.

Ye Feiyu and Zhang Keke got tired of talking, so they returned to their respective positions and quietly waited for the airship to land.

"We've arrived!" With a disciple standing at the front of the airship shouting, the entire airship began to slowly descend.

Shu Lan opened her eyes, which she had been resting, and then turned her gaze outside.

The airship landed in a grove of trees outside the city to avoid disturbing the ordinary residents inside.

After the airship came to a stop, Shu Lan and Ye Feiyu all got off.

After all the disciples disembarked, Shu Lan made a hand seal over the airship, which quickly shrunk to the size of a palm before being stored in her storage ring.

This airship was a gift from his senior brother during this mission. Venerable Lieyang's exact words were: "Junior brother, it's really not right that you don't have a decent mount or means of transportation yet. This airship is for you, so please don't refuse. Otherwise, outsiders will think that our Star River Sect has mistreated you!"

After hearing what Venerable Lieyang said, Shulan had no choice but to accept the airship.

After storing the airship, Shu Lan said calmly to her disciples, "Let's go, we'll go into the city."

Some disciples, unable to contain themselves any longer, cheered and rushed into the city. Most of them had been staying on the mountain for a long time, and this was their first time coming down, so they inevitably found it novel.

While leading her disciples on a leisurely stroll through the city, Shu Lan inquired about news from Ye Feiyu and the others.

Shu Lan first let his disciples do as they pleased, then went into the teahouse, hoping to hear if there was any news he wanted.

As soon as Shu Lan entered the teahouse, he felt different gazes on him from all sides. Shu Lan didn't take it seriously, after all, he was used to being the center of attention.

Sure enough, those gazes soon dispersed.

Shu Lan found a seat by the window and sat down.

Suddenly, Shu Lan frowned slightly. He sensed a gaze fixed on him intensely.
