As Jiang Yuetong walked through the corridors past palaces, she realized for the first time how vast Huanhaizhou truly was.

It feels like there's no end to the journey.

Jiang Yuetong had just sat down gracefully in the main hall when she looked up and saw Qingfeng walk in with a resentful expression on his face.

"Master, why did you let Rujing go with the Second Miss? You clearly promised me before."

Jiang Yuetong was clearly stunned.

What did I promise you?

Upon hearing this, Qingfeng's eyes widened in disbelief, and a look of anxiety appeared on his usually expressionless face.

He quickly explained, "Yesterday you asked me if I was willing to follow the Second Miss, and I said I was. How could you forget that!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuetong seemed to remember something and frowned, saying, "I have indeed forgotten some things. You should go to the dungeon now and release all the people I arrested."

Qingfeng: "..."

"Oh, right, before you let them go, remember to hypnotize them so they forget what happened here."

Qingfeng opened his mouth and said "Oh", but stopped in his tracks just as he was about to turn around and leave. He still didn't give up and said, "Master, that's not what I meant."

Jiang Yuetong's mind was inexplicably in a mess. After hearing this, she looked at Qingfeng and pondered for a while before remembering what she had said yesterday.

"I only asked if you were willing, I didn't say you had to stay by Yao Yao's side, you misunderstood."

Qingfeng: "..."

Okay, his owner doesn't love him anymore.

“Besides, Yao Yao is a girl, and it’s inconvenient for you, a guy, to follow her around,” Jiang Yuetong said seriously.

She just wanted to ask Qingfeng if he would be willing to protect Yaoyao if he were in her shoes.

He wanted to show Wen Tian that even though she was jealous of Ru Jing, there were still people who envied her. Little did he know that Qing Feng had overthought things.

Qingfeng: "..."

That makes a lot of sense.

"Then I shall take my leave."

Jiang Yuetong nodded slightly and said "Mmm".

Now that she has released all the young masters and ladies as the manager in the book instructed, her master should be able to leave seclusion soon.

However, her master's spiritual power was superior to hers, so hypnosis would probably be of little use to him.

Thinking of this, a glint of light flashed in Jiang Yuetong's eyes.

How could she forget about Lü Jingliang?!

He is a demon emperor who has lived for nearly ten thousand years, and his strength is far above hers. After Li Qingrong refines the pill and helps him get rid of the cold poison, he will rest for a period of time and his body will be fully recovered before he can erase his master's memories!

Jiang Yuetong's red lips curved slightly. In that case, her master would have to suffer a little more.

...

Three days later.

After receiving the message from Ru Jing, Jiang Yuetong sat down in a chair with a cold expression, crumpling the paper in her hand into a ball.

Upon closer inspection, her slender, fair hands appeared to be trembling slightly.

With a creak, Lü Jingliang walked in from outside, carrying a bowl of steaming medicinal soup.

Looking up, he saw Jiang Yuetong with her brows furrowed and her face looking rather pale. He couldn't help but put down what he was holding and quickly went over, gently patting her head with his warm hand.

What happened?

Jiang Yuetong snorted coldly, grabbed his hand from her head, and then placed it behind her back, saying, "Tap here."

Lu Jingliang smiled indulgently and said, "Okay."

As time passed, seeing that Jiang Yuetong remained silent for a long time, Lü Jingliang noticed a wad of paper in her hand, reached out and took it, then opened it.

Before long, his face also turned pale.

"What are you planning to do?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuetong took a deep breath and said with a slightly cold expression, "I will personally go and bring the person back."
