An Zijin was also quite surprised by the shamelessness of the Dongdan family, and immediately sent the letter to Ji Fengyao.

Ji Fengyao casually opened the letter, which was clearly twice as thick, glanced at it a few times, and then her expression became serious.

Seeing that her expression was off, Shang Xiye quickly asked, "What's wrong? What's written inside?"

"Your Highness, look," Ji Fengyao closed the invitation and handed it to Shang Xiye.

Shang Xiye took the letter and quickly read it over. He slammed the letter shut with a loud "snap," his deep voice filled with barely suppressed anger: "They claim to have direct descendants of the Yun family and know that you are a member of the Yun family. This is enough to show that the Dongdan family is also one of the demon-connected families."

"I was just worried about not being able to find them, and they actually came to my door to show off their power. Ha, they even want me to come alone..."

Before Ji Fengyao could finish speaking, Xique exclaimed anxiously, "Miss, you absolutely mustn't go by yourself! This is definitely a trap!"

"Do you think I'm that stupid?" Ji Fengyao smiled and glanced at Xi Que, saying, "But since he's already so shameless, if we just stay here and don't respond, wouldn't we look like cowards? If he wants to see me, then let him see me! Tonight, I'll personally go and catch him, bring him back, and send him to the Tower of Life, so he can see me every day, see me to his heart's content, until he's sick of it!"

"My little wife, let's go together. I'll leave those two old geezers, Dongdan Fuji and Dongdan Fufa, to you," Shang Xiye said, affectionately holding the little bandit's soft hand.

"I'm going too! I can't fight, but I can cheer for Miss and Son-in-law!" Xi Que said excitedly.

“Then I will go protect Miss Magpie,” An Zijin said with a smile.

Xi Que turned to look at An Zijin and pouted, feeling both touched and heartbroken.

She used to be a key member of her mistress's team, but now she's reduced to needing someone else's protection.

It seems she really needs to work harder in her training and can't slack off even a little bit!

"Then I'd better not go. I'll stay here and work hard on my cultivation so that Sister An can be free to help Miss." Xi Que bit her lower lip, suppressing her excitement, and took a step back.

One sentence made Ji Fengyao, Shang Xiye, and An Zijin laugh.

Ji Fengyao knew that she was the type to join in the fun, and that if she didn't go, she would always be thinking about it. So she said, "It won't take long to go, so you can come along. Otherwise, you might be at home but your mind will be elsewhere, and you might end up going astray in your cultivation. Cultivation should be done according to your own will and nature. If you force it, it's easy to leave behind inner demons."

"Then I'll go, thank you, Miss. You're the best!" Xi Que jumped up happily, grinning from ear to ear.

As the stars and moon set into the night, all is quiet and still.

Dongdan Fuji and Dongdan Fufa led most of their people to a secret location outside Tongcheng to prepare for welcoming, capturing, and controlling Yun Yao the next day, then committing atrocities and controlling the Danzong sect, making the entire Danzong sect work for their Dongdan family.

The unimaginable immense profits blinded Dongdan Fuji, Dongdan Fufa, and the Dongdan family's disciples and retainers.

Dongdan Jinghong, who stayed behind in the small courtyard in Tongcheng with a small number of Dongdan family members, was also very happy.

Unable to enter a meditative state, and unable to sleep, he simply invited a few female practitioners to come back and play the zither and sing.

When Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye sneaked over with An Zijin and more than thirty powerful demons, the Dongdan family's courtyard was filled with singing and dancing.
