Chapter 404: Revenge a Thousand Times Over
Since Huang Rongyu was a man, he certainly wouldn't just step into a woman's dormitory to look for someone, so he personally went to the Tianji Pavilion and summoned the Seventh Elder.
The Seventh Elder walked into Ye Fei's room and looked around: "Little Fei'er isn't in her dormitory."
Huang Rongyu raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "Xiao Fei promised me last night that we would have breakfast together today. She's not the kind of person who breaks her promises."
The Seventh Elder noticed a piece of paper on the table, pressed down by a book. She picked it up, glanced at the writing, and sighed, "This girl..."
"What's wrong with Xiao Fei?" Huang Rongyu asked immediately upon seeing this.
"She had urgent business to attend to and took a few days off." The Seventh Elder waved the paper in his hand in front of Huang Rongyu a few times. "It looks like it was left last night. She must have left in a hurry; some of the ink was wiped off before it was even dry..."
Huang Rongyu was stunned for a moment, then fell silent.
The Seventh Elder glanced at Huang Rongyu and patted his shoulder: "She didn't do it on purpose, don't take it to heart."
Huang Rongyu raised her eyes and smiled slightly: "Seventh Elder, I don't blame her."
"Sigh, this girl, like my good-for-nothing disciple, has important matters to attend to. I really want to know what they're dealing with..."
Huang Rongyu remained silent for a while before saying, "Seventh Elder, I'll be leaving now. I need to go to the main hall of the academy to see the First Elder later."
The Seventh Elder grunted and said, "Go ahead, don't delay us."
Watching the boy's graceful figure disappear into the distance, the Seventh Elder stroked his chin with a sly grin. "That kid Rong Yu seems to care a lot about Xiao Fei'er!"
Could it be that he also has feelings for Xiao Fei'er...?
The Seventh Elder smiled, raising the corners of his lips.
Xiao Li, you've finally met your match.

The Demon Realm, the Demon Palace.
Li Yuan was still unconscious, but the black claw mark on his chest was visibly fading away.
Ye Fei finally breathed a sigh of relief as the effects of the drug in the Dark Night finally kicked in.
As soon as she relaxed, her tense nerves also loosened, and the fatigue from not closing her eyes all night surged towards Ye Fei like a tide.
She couldn't hold on any longer and simply lay down on the edge of the bed and fell asleep.
Unsure how long she had slept, Ye Fei vaguely heard Jiang Bai and Li Yu talking outside the palace.
“A demon guard discovered Thorn’s whereabouts in the demon realm.”
"Which exact location?"
"The last location the guard transmitted via the communication stone was near the Deer Gate Mountains, after which he disappeared without a trace. He's probably..."
Ye Fei suddenly opened her eyes, got up and quickly walked out of the palace, startling Bai Liyu who was outside.
"Where is the Deer Gate Mountains?" The girl's voice was as cold and piercing as ice.
Seeing the faint weariness still on Ye Fei's face, Bai couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, you are already exhausted from treating His Majesty. If you don't get some rest..."
A cold glint flashed in Ye Fei's eyes: "Don't make me ask a second time."
Even Jiang Bai and Li Yu, who had followed Li Yuan for many years, were startled by the murderous aura emanating from Ye Fei and took a step back.
After a moment of silence, Li Yu finally answered, "The Deer Gate Mountains are three thousand miles north of the Demon Palace."
Ye Fei looked at Li Yu: "Take me there."
Bai Jun's face showed surprise: "Empress, are you going to find Thorn?"
"Your lord is still lying inside, and you were injured by Thorns. Can you really swallow this insult?" Ye Fei asked him coldly.
Bai clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "Of course I can't stand it!"
Ye Fei narrowed her eyes: "That's right, you can't stand it."
She approached the two of them and said, word by word, "Always remember, repay kindness a hundredfold and hatred a thousandfold!"
