"Princess, Nangong Ziyan and the Demon Lord have returned."
Xiao Nian hurriedly entered Baili Yuechan's room to report.
Baili Yuechan was getting ready.
"You're back?"
Baili Yuechan's hand, which was drawing her eyebrows, trembled slightly. Dongfang Yifei had also returned. He hadn't entered her room last night. Was he tired of her? A sense of displeasure flashed through Baili Yuechan's mind.
"It's better that you're back. Inform Yuki and tell her to prepare for action."
Baili Yuechan gave the order without hesitation. She had endured enough and didn't want to endure it any longer. If there wasn't a resolution, she would be restless day and night.
"Yes, Princess."
Xiao Nian bit her lip, but eventually walked out.
"Yan'er, Haotian, your elder brother was right. Now that the demonic spirit within Haotian has been devoured, there will be no more worries."
In Sima Jiaorong's room, Nangong Ruichen, with a rare smile on his face, looked at Nangong Ziyan and Beiming Haotian with satisfaction.
"Yes! Now we have no worries. After the South China Sea Glass Exhibition, we will go to the Thousand-Year Ice Cave in Yunshan to rescue my sister and brother-in-law."
The happiest person was Sima Jiaorong. For many years, she had been hoping to find her relatives, but in the end, she only received news that they were dead, which made her heartbroken. Now that there was a chance to save them, how could she not be excited?
"Hmm!" Bei Ming Haotian nodded happily. Although his eyes were still red when he was angry, there was no longer any demonic aura in his body.
"Hehe! Is this a good thing? Yan'er, now that you have gathered the Seven Eternal Jade, you must be even more careful in the future. The power of the Seven Eternal Jade can make people's power exceed the imagination of the world. Those who want to live forever are bound to have ulterior motives."
Nangong Yuze was both happy and worried, after all, his daughter's cultivation level was so low that she could hardly even protect herself.
"Father, you don't need to worry too much. Yan'er will soon be able to protect herself. This trip to Lotus Village was very fruitful. The young master of the demon beast realm gave Yan'er a Cloud Mist Sacred Fruit, which will allow Yan'er to break through her cultivation."
Nangong Ziyan beamed with joy at the mention of this; when someone's luck is on their side, nothing can stop them.
"Haha...!" Nangong Ruichen laughed heartily a few times. "Father, Yan'er is the luckiest girl. She encounters all sorts of good things, and when she encounters danger, she can naturally turn bad luck into good."
"Eldest brother understands Yan'er best, but where is second brother? If he hears that Yan'er is coming back, second brother will be the most restless one."
Nangong Ziyan found it strange, since her second brother doted on her the most.
"Yes! Qi'er went to bed early last night. It's almost noon, so she should have gotten up a long time ago. Besides, Qi'er never likes to sleep in."
Sima Jiaorong also found it strange.
"Mother, let me go take a look."
Nangong Ruichen stood up and just then saw Xue Ji walking in through the door.
"Miss Yukihime."
Nangong Ruichen called out coldly, not even knowing why himself. With each step Xue Ji took closer to him, his heart pounded with anxiety.
Nangong Ziyan and Beiming Haotian also looked towards the door.
Especially Nangong Ziyan, who suddenly recognized Xue Ji's true form—a snow wolf with a snow-white body, a large size, and blue eyes—abruptly stood up from her chair. The woman before her was not human at all, but the most vicious snow wolf in the world. However, Nangong Ziyan quickly thought of something else. After demonic beasts and magical beasts transformed, they were difficult for humans to recognize. So why could she recognize the woman before her as a snow wolf in disguise at a glance? Could it be because she possessed the power of the Seven Eternal Jade within her?
“Young master, Xueji heard the cheerful laughter coming from here from afar. Xueji is feeling bored staying in her room alone and wanted to come over and chat with you.”
A faint smile graced Xue Ji's beautiful face as her gaze inadvertently drifted towards Nangong Ziyan.
She sensed the purest spiritual energy in the world; if she were to consume her, her cultivation would surely become supreme in the world of magical beasts.
With just one glance, Nangong Ziyan saw through her ruthlessness and wondered how her elder brother knew her.
"Since Miss Xueji can get out of bed and walk around, her wound should be fine now."
Sima Jiaorong spoke, and that inexplicable sense of fear surged back into her heart, making her feel very uncomfortable looking at Xue Ji.
"Thank you for your concern, Madam. Xueji is much better now. But who is this young lady...?"
Xue Ji walked towards Nangong Ziyan.
Nangong Ziyan's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.
"Don't come any closer."
Nangong Ziyan took a few steps back, looking at Xue Ji warily. She could tell that Xue Ji had ill intentions. Xue Lang was good at disguising herself, and her brother and mother must have been deceived by her kind appearance.
"Yan'er".
Bei Ming Haotian sensed Nangong Ziyan's fear and instantly teleported to her side.
However, Xue Ji was too close to Nangong Ziyan, and a tiny, blood-red worm the size of a sesame seed had already been flicked onto the back of Nangong Ziyan's hand.
"Hmm!" Nangong Ziyan felt a slight stinging sensation on the back of her hand. She raised her hand to look, but there was nothing there. Nangong Ziyan was puzzled and looked up at Xue Ji with a suspicious expression.
Upon seeing this, Yukihime's lips curled up slightly, a triumphant smile flashing across her face.
"Yan'er, what's wrong?"
Seeing her frown and her pained expression, Bei Ming Haotian felt a nameless fear rise in his heart.
"Haotian, Yan'er is alright, she's alright..."
She wanted to comfort Bei Minghaotian and tell him that she was alright, but her heart ached, ached as if it were being torn apart.
"Ouch...it hurts!"
