So he deliberately let people spread the news that he was extremely fond of Leng Yan, in order to have Leng Yan summoned by the Demon Lord to the Demon Palace. Because only in this way could Leng Yan not affect his plan. Leng Yan was too casual, and bringing her with him would easily cause problems for his plan. Leng Yan's fight with the Demon Lord would not only restrain the Demon Lord but also prevent Leng Yan from disrupting his plan.
But what Xiao Qingchuan didn't know was that as soon as Leng Yan got on the carriage, he asked Xiao Qian'an to send some people disguised as the Third Prince's men to hijack the carriage he was riding in, and by the way, asked Xiao Qian'an to hide in the mansion and be careful not to be implicated.

After a long time, the sound of fighting outside stopped. Leng Yan said indifferently, "It seems that your people won." The man opposite glanced at Leng Yan and said nothing.
