Night fell.

Jiang Wei probably won't be back tonight.

And it started raining outside.

The rain wasn't heavy, somewhere between a drizzle and a downpour.

But gusts of cold wind blew in from outside.

"This is really weird. The doors and windows are all closed properly, so why is there always a draft?"

Zijing mumbled something and wrapped herself tightly in the blanket.

At this very moment, Ye Feng and Zi Jing were in the guest room that Li Huayun had arranged for them.

The guest room was quite luxurious, with all the utensils inside being brand new. It was clear at a glance that no one had used it yet, and there were no signs of time at all.

Night Breeze looked around, and his eyes suddenly turned pale gold.

This is precisely the Golden Eye of All Laws!

The Golden Eyes of Myriad Laws can see through all martial arts techniques, even bizarre illusions.

After examining it for a moment, Ye Feng's face revealed an expression of "I knew it," as if he had discovered something.

Zijing immediately asked, "Old Deng, have you discovered anything?"

"Let's not talk about it now, I'm afraid I'll scare you," Ye Feng said with a smile.

"I'm easily scared!" Zijing said arrogantly, hands on her hips.

The night breeze patted the head of the Bauhinia tree, smiling without saying a word.

As time went by, Zijing felt sleepy and said, "Old Deng, aren't you going to sleep? If you don't rest, I'm going to rest!"

"I, the city lord, haven't rested yet, and you, the guard, want to rest?" Ye Feng said irritably.

"Who told you to be so powerful? You're a Saint Realm expert, of course I can't compare to you." Zijing was thick-skinned and didn't feel ashamed at all.

And as soon as she finished speaking, Zijing rolled herself up in the blanket and fell fast asleep.

The rain is falling even harder than before.

And the wind got even stronger.

Ye Feng stood up and stood by the window, looking at the rain outside with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Suddenly, the night wind pierced through the rain and revealed a tower.

The tower is directly in front of this guest room, but it is located on the other side of the city lord's mansion, and it is separated from the city lord's mansion by a large open area.

So the tower looked all alone, like a desolate and lonely citrus tree.

A few windows on the tower were dimly lit, suggesting that someone lived inside.

Elsewhere, darkness enveloped everything, blending seamlessly with the night.

Night Wind frowned as he carefully observed the tower, and then he had a feeling of unreality.

The tower exuded an ethereal quality, as if it didn't actually exist, yet it undeniably stood there.

This creates a strong sense of incongruity, as if something that shouldn't exist is now there, thus creating a disconnect from reality.

The night wind listened intently, as if it could hear countless mournful wails and cries coming from the tower, which made his gaze turn extremely cold.

But those illusory wails and howls only lasted for a moment before disappearing without a trace, as if what the night wind had just heard was all an illusion.

Suddenly, a soft footstep came from the corridor outside.

This time, it was no longer that ethereal, dreamlike voice, but a real voice.

It seems someone is coming to visit me.

Who could it be?

The footsteps were very light, and seemed to be made by a woman.

Sure enough, a knocking sound came at the door a moment later, along with a woman's voice: "Is His Highness Prince Nanling resting?"

“No,” Ye Feng said.

"Then I'll come in. I apologize for the intrusion, Your Highness Prince Nanling. I hope you won't take offense."

As the woman's voice rang out, the door creaked open.

Then a woman in a white dress appeared in Ye Feng's field of vision.

Upon seeing this woman, Ye Feng immediately recognized her identity!

Li Huayun's wife, Zhao Yanzhi!

Zhao Yanzhi has a very beautiful face, with a charming and alluring woman's appearance.

However, the expression on her face was quite innocent, and the clothes she wore looked so simple, completely unrelated to words like seductive and alluring.

Thus, this woman exuded two completely different qualities: one alluring and charming, the other pure and elegant.

Two completely different, even diametrically opposed, qualities intertwined so closely that even the night breeze felt somewhat uncomfortable.

But this wasn't what Night Breeze cared about most.

What caught Ye Feng's attention the most was that Zhao Yanzhi was carrying a lantern.

It looked like just an ordinary lantern, but the night wind knew it wasn't!

That lantern is definitely not ordinary!

Seven hundred years ago, Luo Tong specially collected materials to help the Dream Saintess He Na forge the tenth-grade perfect spiritual artifact—the Void Dream Lamp!

Ye Feng truly hadn't expected that the Void Dream Lamp would appear here, in the hands of Li Huayun's wife.

This was completely unexpected!

"Madam, is there something important you want to discuss with me in the middle of the night?" Ye Feng asked.

Although Ye Feng's heart was not at peace, his expression remained calm, and his tone of voice was very indifferent, as if he had not seen anything unusual or noticed anything amiss.

Zhao Yanzhi was also looking Ye Feng up and down at that moment. She smiled and said, "Are you really Luo Tong, the ancestor of the Luo family seven hundred years ago? The first Prince of Nanling?"

"Absolutely genuine," Ye Feng laughed.

Zhao Yanzhi nodded slightly, and then continued, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that a person who should exist in history suddenly appeared in front of me, which makes me feel unreal."

"You also give me a sense of unreality, Madam. A city lord's wife who adheres to tradition would not meet with a strange man alone in the middle of the night, let alone be alone in a room with that strange man," Ye Feng joked.

“Your Highness Prince Nanling, you are mistaken. We are not alone in a room. Your personal guard is still here.”

Zhao Yanzhi said, pointing with her free hand to Zijing, who was fast asleep wrapped in a blanket.

Night Wind wanted to kick Zijing to wake this negligent guard from his sleep.

But he finally said, rubbing his forehead with a helpless expression, "Please pretend she doesn't exist, otherwise I'll feel ashamed."

"I never expected that the first King of Nanling from seven hundred years ago would be so witty," Zhao Yanzhi said with a light laugh.

When Zhao Yanzhi smiled, the alluring and seductive aura emanating from her became even stronger.

Then, Zhao Yanzhi put the lantern aside, walked over, and gracefully bowed.

“I should have come to greet you during the day, but I wasn’t feeling well and fell asleep in a daze, only waking up just now. Hua Yun told me to rest well, but I really didn’t want to miss the opportunity to meet His Highness Prince Nanling, so I secretly came over. Please don’t mind, His Highness Prince Nanling,” Zhao Yanzhi said.
