Unfortunately, the baby fruit only matures once every thirty years, so it will be several years before the next batch matures.

She withdrew her gaze and looked at her mutilated legs under the water, hatred burning in her chest again.

"Lan'er."

The master's gentle and soft voice came.

Zhao Fulan looked at her, her eyes reddened, "Master..."

Rong Xian'er came to the pool and knelt down, holding her head in her arms, "Don't be afraid, Master is here, and Master will definitely help you get revenge."

"Well, Master, I knew you were the best to me." Zhao Fulan hugged her waist and snuggled into her arms.

However, there was no emotion in those eyes that matched the voice.

Rong Xian'er stroked her hair gently, "Lan'er, I have investigated Shen Yizhi. She is quite powerful and has the protection of Prince Chen. If you want to take revenge, you have to start with the people around her."

When Zhao Fulan heard the word "Prince Chen", her eyelashes trembled, followed by overwhelming jealousy.

She would never forget the scene in which he stood beside Shen Yizhi to protect her and raised his hand to attack her.

Rong Xian'er stopped talking and took out Han Baoluo's intelligence. "Take a look at this first. Once you have recovered from your injuries, it won't be too late to talk about revenge."

* Kunling Island.

Shen Yizhi was taking Gu Xueting around the island, introducing him to some interesting places he had discovered.

Qing Bao and the other two were taken care of by Shen Jianghan, and the two of them had a rare chance to enjoy some time alone.

Just when he was having fun, Shen Yizhi suddenly received a message from Cui Yue.

When I clicked on the photo stone, Cui Yue’s anxious face appeared on it, and she looked like she was about to cry.

"Sister Zhizhi, I received a letter from my father. He said that my grandfather had a serious illness and was about to die... I, I want to take Nian Nian back as soon as possible."

Shen Yizhi quickly replied to her: "Don't worry, Yue'er, I'll take Nian Nian over right away."

The two returned to the valley and explained the situation to Shen Jianghan.

Shen Yizhi: "Dad, I'm worried about Nian Nian going back with Yue Er and the others, so I want to go with them."

"Then go ahead, and leave some more food for me." Shen Jianghan continued to carve stones.

"I'm not sure how long I'll be gone this time, so please take good care of yourself." Shen Yizi reminded him worriedly.

Shen Jianghan glared at him, "Do I need you to worry about me? Go quickly, don't let the little girl wait too long." He then said to Gu Xueting, "Xingzhou, take good care of Yibao."

"Yes, I will, don't worry." Gu Xueting put his arm around Shen Yizi's shoulders.

"I'll leave Qingbao and Yuanbao to accompany you."

What Shen Yizi was most worried about was that if they all left at once, the island would suddenly become deserted and lonely, and his father would not be able to bear it.

To be honest, Shen Jianghan was very tempted by this suggestion, but it was better for the child to stay with his parents.

It will probably take at least two or three months for Yibao to make this trip.

When Qingbao and the others miss their parents, he won't be able to comfort them! "Take them all away, take them away. These little devils are giving me a headache all day long. If you take them away, I can have some peace and quiet." Shen Jianghan said with a tone that was not in his heart.

Shen Yizhi saw through it but didn't say it out loud.

"Well, this bag is full of food and wine, but you can't drink too much. You have to control yourself, okay?"

"Okay, let's go, stop talking nonsense."

Shen Jianghan waved his hand impatiently.

However, when they really left, he couldn't help but sigh with disappointment when he saw the stone pavilion suddenly become deserted.

The stone sculpture in my hand suddenly seemed boring.

Just then, a little head popped out from behind the stone pillar.

"Grandpa, my mother, father and I would like to ask to stay and accompany you." Yuanbao said crisply.

Shen Jianghan's eyes suddenly became warm and he waved at him: "Good boy, come here, grandpa."

In fact, he already knew Yuanbao's identity, but the child's every move had nothing to do with a puppet, as if he was really Qingbao's twin brother.

Gradually, he began to treat him the same as Qing Bao.

Now, Yuanbao actually took the initiative to ask to stay with him, and Shen Jianghan was really moved.

He held him on his lap and asked, "Grandpa, can you carve a little stone man for Yuan Bao?"

"good."

In mid-air, Shen Yizhi looked at the happy scene of grandparents and grandchildren in the stone pavilion below. He and Gu Xueting smiled at each other and felt relieved.

On the Tianzhou, Nian Nian was not as lively as before, but sat quietly on the carpet.

Qing Bao ran around heartlessly, holding a small kite in his hand, trying to fly it into the sky.

Gu's old father Xue Ting followed him closely, fearing that he would bump into something or fall.

Shen Yizhi sat down next to Nian Nian and took out a piece of information about the Cui family.

This was something Gu Xueting had sent her earlier, and she put it away after reading it.

Now that Nian Nian has to return to the Cui family and face that whole family, she must get to know those people better.

She pointed to the information in the intelligence and explained to her the relationships between the people in the Cui family as if she was telling a story.

The previous head of the Cui family is now retired and usually lives in seclusion and rarely appears in public.

The current head of the Cui family, Cui Huo, the lord of the Southern Region, who is also Nian Nian's father, is sixty-seven years old. For an ordinary family, this is an age for him to enjoy his retirement, but Cui Huo is not an ordinary person, but a cultivator.

His cultivation is at the late stage of Qi Refining.

For a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, living to be a hundred years is no problem, so the sixty-seven-year-old Cui Huo is at most middle-aged among the cultivators.

I had never heard of him being ill before, so how could he suddenly fall ill? And it seemed like he was about to have his funeral taken care of? Shen Yizhi always felt that something was amiss.

I asked Cui Yue, but she didn't know either.

It seems that the only way to understand it is to meet him in person.

Cui Huo’s wife, Zhao, was from the Zhao clan, the family of the current queen. She was the woman who imprisoned Nian Nian and her mother in the coffin.

On the surface, Zhao gave birth to two sons and two daughters for Cui Huo, but in fact, the eldest son Cui Shizhen was born to Cui Huo's true love Li Jiaoniang.

Zhao's eldest daughter, Cui Mingguang, married into the Lu family, a large family in the same city.

The second son, Cui Mao, likes to travel and explore secluded places. He is away from home all year round and is now in his thirties and has not yet started a family.

The youngest daughter, Cui Yunhuang, was diagnosed with ice spiritual roots when she was very young. She became a disciple of the Taxian Sect when she was about ten years old and seldom returned home.

As for grandchildren, there are only Cui Yue and Cui Xi.

Compared with other aristocratic families, the Cui family can be said to be a declining family.

As for relatives from other collateral branches, there are quite a few, but there is no need to remember them specifically. It is enough to have a general understanding of them.
