“Fenghua is in this state again, even more troublesome than Yunxiao’s situation in her previous life.” Hei Xiao lowered his head and pondered, deeply worried about Ji Fenghua: “What should we do to help Fenghua get out of this predicament in both body and mind?”

"I just hope that Fenghua won't end up like Yunxiao, encountering another 'Ling Qing' who is cold-hearted and slow to realize things..."

Ji Fengming and Cao Xiaosi talked for a long time without Hei Xiao saying a word. Hei Xiao got up, went behind him, put his arm around his shoulder, and said, "It's good enough that Fenghua is not in any danger. Why do you seem more anxious than your own brother?"

Black Owl turned his head and gave Ji Fengming a deep look:

There are some things you don't understand, and I don't want you to understand them anymore.

“That’s right, brother-in-law, as long as the person is alright for now, we can discuss the rescue later…” Cao Xiaosi also came to Hei Xiao’s side and reached out to put his hand on Hei Xiao’s shoulder, but Hei Xiao raised his hand to block his claws.

Cao Xiaosi looked at his hand, which had been ruthlessly pushed away, and then at Ji Fengming, who was smugly hooking his arm around the black owl: "..."

It seems he hasn't won over his two brothers-in-laws yet; he needs to keep trying!

After some discussion, the three decided to keep an eye on the movements of the Qu family and the Hidden Sect, with a particular focus on Mi Xi's whereabouts.

They all agreed that as long as they kept an eye on Mi Xi, they would definitely be able to find Ji Fenghua.

As time passed, the city of Tianque was plunged into the darkness of night.

The Qu family still hasn't found Ji Fenghua.

Mi Tang'an, Qu Jinxian, and Qu Jinghuai's faces had turned as black as ice and as cold as ice.

Only Mi Xi grew increasingly arrogant, slamming her hand on the table and pointing at Qu Jinxian's nose as she roared, "You dogs! You not only framed our Hidden Sect, but you also dared to hide my Little Devil without permission, and then shamelessly told us that Little Devil is missing! You have some nerve! Let me tell you, this matter is not over until you hand over Little Devil! I advise you to hand him over quickly!"

Qu Jinxian was utterly astonished. In all his years, this was the first time he had ever been so brazenly insulted by a young girl.

But Mi Tang'an and the other members of the Hidden Sect sat right next to Mi Xi without saying a word, and Qu Jinxian didn't dare to utter a sound either.

Qu Jinghuai, however, couldn't help himself and wanted to stand up and argue with Mi Xi several times.

Qu Jinxian pulled him back in time, saying with great frustration, "Jinghuai, don't argue with the child, finding someone is the priority."

However, Qu Jinghuai couldn't stand Mi Xi's arrogant attitude, so he personally led two teams out to search the entire city for Ji Fenghua.

In the woods outside Tianque City.

After waiting for most of the day, Mi Wei finally received Mi Cheng'an's long-distance communication talisman:

The Qu family has expanded their search area and may be heading outside the city. We should leave now.

Mi Wei glanced back at Ji Fenghua, who had recovered considerably, with her four fangs retracted and she now resembled an ordinary human.

A hint of amazement flashed in her eyes, but her beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Is the Grand Elder going to make her take this little demon back to the Hidden Sect alone?

She knew that Mi Xi didn't like others touching her things, and she didn't want to associate with demons.

But this matter concerns the reputation of their hidden sect.

Once the Qu family discovers and sees her with this demon, the accusation that the Hidden Sect is colluding with evil spirits will be confirmed.

"Fine, everyone says that demons are good at bewitching people, so I'll just treat this as a form of training."

Mi Wei convinced herself of this, walked to Ji Fenghua's side, and gently kicked him with her toe.
