Nie Qingshuang stopped in mid-air and looked at the other side of Tianyuan.
Hundreds of miles away, a towering ancient tree catches the eye.
"The Qingmu Dao Sect... actually harbors a powerful demon?"
Nie Qingshuang's eyes narrowed, and she flew directly over, hovering near the ancient tree.
This ancient tree belongs to the Qingmu Dao Sect and is protected by a large array. Even with Nie Qingshuang's extraordinary cultivation, she would not dare to trespass recklessly.
"Could I have misread it? The Qingmu Dao Sect has always been upright and deeply loved by the people. How could it possibly harbor demons?"
Despite saying this, Nie Qingshuang still took out something from her sleeve.
It was a crystal-clear cube, about the size of a fist, and inside the crystal was a black feather with distinct patterns.
Just now, it was this object that emitted the red light.
"The Demon Emperor's Feather has never failed to sense anything before. Judging from what just happened, it's at least a powerful demon in the Void Refinement stage. To be on the safe side, let's summon Chong Muzi to take a look!"
Nie Qingshuang dared not presume, and raised her head as if to call out, but suddenly her eyes narrowed.
A slender white shadow flashed past in my sight.
"Where do you think you're going, you monster!"
Nie Qingshuang's face was icy cold, and a pale blue light shone from her robes. In an instant, she transformed into a blur and chased after the white figure.
Compared to the white figure ahead, Nie Qingshuang was significantly faster, and in a short while, she was about to catch up with it.
But suddenly the white shadow whipped its tail, twisted its body, and fled towards the side of the abyss.
"Cheating and deceiving, putting up a stubborn resistance!"
Nie Qingshuang snorted coldly, pointed out a sword finger with her right hand, and a plain-colored longsword appeared out of thin air beside her, gleaming with a ghostly light, and shot out.
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, the longsword caught up with the white figure, forcing it to a stop in front of the abyss.
"snort!"
A woman's soft hum echoed from within the white light.
The next moment, countless thin white rays of light appeared out of thin air and circled around the long sword.
Although the thin threads were no match for Nie Qingshuang's sword, their sheer number allowed them to finally stop the longsword just as it was about to pierce the white light.
"Crazy woman! She attacked people without knowing anything, just as annoying as ever!"
Just then, the white shadow vanished, and a figure appeared.
The woman's voice was deep and gentle, but it wasn't as aggressive as Nie Qingshuang's.
With white hair, a silver robe, and a solemn and dignified face, the long wrinkle at the corner of his eye gave him a somewhat bewitching appearance.
She is another rare classical beauty.
"Oh? It's you!"
Upon seeing the woman, Nie Qingshuang raised an eyebrow slightly, with a hint of surprise: "It has been many years since we last met. I never expected to run into an old friend today while I was just coming down the mountain."
"Hmph, I never expected to be so unlucky. I only go out once and I have to run into a crazy woman like you!"
The woman's face was flushed with anger as she glared at the renowned Master of Qingyou Palace.
"Is that so!" Faced with such mockery, Nie Qingshuang was not angry at all, but merely curled her lips: "Is it a coincidence, or...deliberate?"
"Mei Yu'er, why aren't you staying in your North Sea? What are you doing in my Yunzhou? If you don't give me a reason today, don't blame me for showing no mercy and taking action to capture the demon!"
...
At this very moment, beneath the abyss, Zhu Li, who was taking a nap with her eyes half-closed, seemed to sense something and suddenly opened her eyes!
"This aura... it's my mother! She's come looking for me!"
Shen Yunhao, who was teasing the egg, was so shocked by these words that he flung the baby away.
"Li'er's mother?"
He didn't know anything about Zhu Li's specific family background, only that she had mentioned coming from Beihai.
But since Zhuli is a white dragon, her mother is most likely another dragon.
However, there was no joy in Zhu Li's tone; instead, it was full of solemnity: "I also sensed another aura, which seems to belong to a high-level cultivator!"
Shen Yunhao could hear the worry in Zhuli's voice and asked softly, "Could it be that Auntie is fighting with someone else?"
“It’s highly likely…” the little white dragon said thoughtfully, “If Mother’s sudden appearance here were discovered by the people of Guanghan Palace, it could really cause a conflict.”
"Ah?" Shen Yunhao certainly knew about Guanghan Palace. It was not only the sect to which Ning Yuyao belonged, but also the guardian sect of Yunzhou, holding an unparalleled position in Yunzhou.
"Has Sister Li'er's family had any conflicts with the Guanghan Palace before?"
“No, it’s just…” Zhu Li sighed, “Where in the cultivation world are there such clear distinctions of right and wrong? This person is so fierce, he must have ill intentions. Although Mother belongs to the North Sea, she is still a demon. If the other party uses this to make things difficult for her, even if we can’t kill him, taking him back to the Guanghan Palace and getting Father involved would be extremely troublesome…”
Shen Yunhao was somewhat confused by this and hesitated, saying, "Although the dragon race is also a demon race, it has always symbolized auspiciousness. It shouldn't be an excuse for others to cause trouble..."
The little white dragon turned to look at him and blinked.
"Who told you my mother is a dragon?"
"???"
...
Hearing Nie Qingshuang's clearly targeted remarks, Mei Yu'er's face turned red with anger, and she retorted, "My feet are my own, what business is it of yours where I go? Although I am a demon, I neither harm the heavens nor commit any wrongdoing, what reason do you have to arrest me?"
"Do you really think I'm unaware of the chaos in the North Sea?" Nie Qingshuang sneered. "The great calamity of the Zhuxuan millennium is approaching, and the dragon clan in the North Sea is in chaos. As the Third Madam, instead of taking charge in the North Sea, you've appeared under the Myriad Spirits Ancient Tree in my Yunzhou. Who knows what you're up to?"
"You! You're just trying to frame me. I'm only one person, how could I possibly move this Ancient Tree of Ten Thousand Spirits?"
