The Imperial Preceptor's Residence.
When Qi Yufeng arrived at the Imperial Preceptor's residence as quickly as possible, he was told that the Imperial Preceptor was not there.
Qi Yufeng frowned slightly and asked Qingluan, who was standing to the side, "When did your Grand Preceptor go out?"
Qingluan frowned and thought for a moment, "The Imperial Preceptor hasn't returned since he went to the morning court session."
"..." Qi Yufeng's lips twitched slightly as he looked at Qingluan with a stern, handsome face. "Do you know the consequences of deceiving this prince?"
"I don't know."
Qingluan answered with exceptional honesty, "The Imperial Preceptor is indeed not in the residence. I have no reason to deceive His Highness the Second Prince."
"..."
With a dark expression on his handsome face, Qi Yufeng strode into the main hall. Qingluan followed behind him, and seeing that Qi Yufeng had sat down, she prepared to make him some tea.
"This prince does not drink tea."
Seeing that Qingluan was about to brew tea, Qi Yufeng said calmly, "This prince will wait here for your Grand Preceptor to return."
He refused to believe he'd been tricked!
"yes."
Qingluan nodded slightly, turned around and walked out, standing guard outside the door.
When Chi Hu saw Qing Luan come out, his face was full of smiles. He leaned closer and asked, "Hey, what did Qi Yufeng say to you just now?"
Upon hearing this, Qingluan glared at him fiercely, "The Second Prince is inside, can't you have a better sense of propriety?"
"What are you afraid of?"
Red Tiger glanced indifferently into the hall. "The dignified Azure Phoenix Envoy is actually afraid of a human prince?"
"Red Tiger!"
Qingluan seemed genuinely enraged, her beautiful face radiating coldness: "Don't forget why we came to the human realm in the first place. Are you determined to ruin everything I've done?"
Although Qingluan was very angry, she kept her voice very low, so that only the two of them could hear her. But just to be on the safe side, Qingluan glanced back into the hall and found that Qi Yufeng was sitting in a direction from which they couldn't see them at all, which reassured her a little.
Seeing Qingluan's actions, Chihu stopped joking and smiled slightly, revealing two tiger teeth that made him look exceptionally sunny.
"The master went to the Shangguan residence today and may not return until later. Are you just going to leave the Second Prince waiting inside all night?"
"You knew Grandpa wouldn't be back tonight?"
Qingluan looked at Chihu with suspicion.
"Are you stupid?"
Chi Hu chuckled and leaned closer mysteriously, "I'm a man, a man full of vigor, how could I possibly let such a good opportunity slip by?"
"you!"
When Qingluan realized what Chihu meant, she glared at him with a flushed face.
As a result, Chi Hu turned and left first, leaving only a hearty laugh behind.
Qingluan was left standing there, pondering Chihu's words, which seemed to make a lot of sense. Her master seemed quite interested in Shangguan Jie; perhaps he really wouldn't be coming back tonight? Should she go and tell the Second Prince not to wait any longer?
Suddenly, a cool breeze blew by, and Qingluan became a little more awake. When she thought of the wicked thoughts that had just crossed her mind, her face turned even redder.

Suburbs.
Lieyan carried Ming Beiya and Mo Shisheng on his back and ran all the way until they reached the outskirts of the city before slowing down.
Looking at the familiar place before her, Mo Shisheng's gaze gradually turned cold. She would never forget this place, not even in death. This was where Shangguan Yan had died, and it was also where she, Mo Shisheng, had been reborn!
Mo Shisheng's face still seemed to carry a faint trace of pain, coupled with the hatred emanating from the depths of the original owner's memories, causing an extreme heaviness in her chest.
