After having another meal at the Prince's Mansion, Pei Qian left with Lang Ge'er.
When they parted, the two little guys were reluctant to leave. They held each other's hands and cried as if it was a farewell between life and death.
But Xue Huan, the unscrupulous adult, wanted to laugh as he watched.
"Be good, Yabao. I'll take you to play with Langge'er in a few days, okay? If he doesn't come home, his mother will be worried."
Although Pei Yi is a ginseng spirit and has transformed, that is because he was ripened by the overly rich wood-type spiritual energy. He is actually less than two years old, even younger than he looks, and is still ignorant of many things.
But he was kind-hearted by nature, and when he heard that his mother would be worried if Lang'er didn't go back, he immediately let go of his hand.
Although it was hard to part with his friends, Yabao was a child after all, and he soon found new happiness and put Langge'er behind his mind.
Xue Huan couldn't help but laugh when she saw it.
Children are very forgetful.

Mozhai.
Uncle Mo Liu and Concubine Mo Xue sat opposite each other and were trying to break the silence spell that had hit her.
After a long while, he withdrew his hand from the seal and said to her in a tired tone, "Okay, Miss Thirteen, try again."
In the Mo family, men and women are ranked separately. Mo Ziyu is ranked seventeenth among his grandchildren, while Mo Xuefei, who is younger than him, is ranked thirteenth.
Mo Xuefei opened her mouth and tried: "I... I can speak now!"
After the surprise, there was resentment towards Zhao Yu: "Damn Zhao Yu, he actually dared to turn me into a mute! I will cut him into pieces! No, cutting him into pieces is too easy for him. He should be captured, made into a mummy, and made into a puppet, so that he can neither live nor die!"
In her opinion, people outside the five great families are all ants, and now she has been silenced by an ant and cannot speak for several days. This is simply a great shame and humiliation for her!
And Mo Xuefei is a narrow-minded and vindictive person, so how could she not retaliate?
"Xue Fei!" Mo Ziyu's scolding came from the door. It was obvious that he heard what Mo Xue Fei had just said.
He walked in and warned Concubine Mo Xue, "Zhao Yu is the prince's man and cannot be touched for the time being."
Concubine Mo Xue: "What's wrong with the Crown Prince? Even if he's the Emperor, what does he mean to us Mo Clan? Zhao Yu destroyed your puppet and made me mute, so why can't he do anything? He's just a casual cultivator. Even if we Mo Clan kill him, what can the Crown Prince do?"
Mo Ziyu patiently explained to her, "Zhao Yu is definitely not an ordinary cultivator. We must not act rashly until I have thoroughly investigated his background."
"After all, you just won't avenge me! Brother, when did you become such a coward! If you won't, then I'll do it myself!"
After saying this, Mo Xuefei ran out angrily.
Mo Ziyu had a headache and ordered, "Sixth Uncle, follow her and keep an eye on her. Don't let her do anything rash."
Uncle Mo: "Yes."
Mo Ziyu rubbed his brows and sat down. How could he explain to Concubine Xue that the Mo Clan was no longer the same Mo Clan it once was? And that the five great families weren't as closely connected as outsiders assumed?
Today, with spiritual energy declining and resources scarce, the Mohist School is no longer the high-ranking immortal cultivation family it once was. Today, the Mohist School is at best just a relatively large family.
Compared with ordinary families, it does have advantages, but it is not enough in front of the royal family. Once it really goes against the royal family, the Mohist school is likely to be uprooted.
After all, two fists cannot beat four hands. No matter how strong a person is, he will be vulnerable in front of thousands of troops. If they really anger the royal family, the royal family will send troops to deal with the Mohists. Even a spit from one person will be enough for them to bear.
Once the Mohist School falls, the other four schools will not only not come to the rescue, but will be eager to seize the resources that originally belonged to the Mohist School.
So, where does Concubine Xue get the confidence to disregard the royal family?
Moziyu was deeply worried.
Where did Mo Xuefei get her confidence from? It was simply because she had stayed in the family for too long and didn't have a sufficient understanding of the outside world. As a result, she had no self-awareness and was still immersed in the glorious days of the five great families.
In addition, although she is already 25 years old, she spends most of her time in cultivation. Her character is not as good as that of a 15 or 16-year-old girl in the secular world. She has not suffered the beatings of society, so she has developed such an arrogant character.
After running for a while, Mo Xuefei was caught up by Uncle Mo Liu.
She seemed to have expected to be caught up, so she didn't run anymore. Instead, she stopped and turned to look at Uncle Mo Liu.
"Sixth Uncle, if you help me capture Zhao Yu, I will give you this True Spirit Pill. How about that?"
A yellow pill appeared in Mo Xuefei's hand. The color of the pill's surface was a little uneven. It was just a low-grade pill. Even so, when Uncle Mo Liu saw it, his eyes revealed a strong desire.
The True Spirit Pill is a pill that assists in cultivation. After taking it, the medicinal power will be refined and the cultivation level will increase accordingly. Although the amount of cultivation that can be increased by one True Spirit Pill is extremely limited, if you practice step by step, it will take at least half a year to achieve this slight improvement!
For a cultivator, time is life! Taking this pill is equivalent to an extra six months of cultivation time. Maybe he can achieve a breakthrough in this six months?
As a guard of the Mo family, Uncle Mo Liu's annual allowance is just one Zhenling Pill.
So you can imagine how attractive this pill is to him.
Mo Xuefei was very satisfied with his reaction. "I'll give you five numbers to think about it. Five, four, three, two—"
"I promise!"
Mo Xuefei closed her hands and put the pill away. "Then I will wait for good news from Sixth Uncle. Once you capture Zhao Yu and bring him to me, this pill will be yours."
Uncle Mo Liu felt a little regretful at this time, but since he had already agreed, there was no room for regret. All he could do now was to capture Zhao Yu and exchange him for the True Spirit Pill!
There are two large trading markets in the imperial capital, one is the East Market and the other is the West Market. The East Market is on the east side of the imperial city, where rare treasures from all over the world are gathered. It is home to many rare treasures from all over the country, and many dignitaries will come here.
The West Market is located to the west of the Imperial City, relatively close to Kaiyuan Gate, the starting point of the international trade route, the Silk Road. Due to the principle of proximity, foreign businessmen often sell their goods here. Over time, an international trade market has been formed here.
Items from various countries including the Western Regions, overseas Fusang, and Persia can be found here.
The East and West Markets were inherited from the Tang Dynasty, but the curfew of the Tang Dynasty was broken during the Song Dynasty. Today, there is no curfew in Daqi anymore, so the prosperity and bustle of the East and West Markets are even greater than during the Tang and Song Dynasties.
Xue Huan and a few others took a car to the West Market. They were shocked to see the scene of numerous shops and crowds of tourists.
