You Yue shivered as she watched Guiyun approaching her. She had no way to hide or escape, so she directly shouted, “What’s your purpose? Why did you catch me here?”

Milord Gui was still standing with his hands clasped behind his back, and his astute eyes were full of shrewdness.

Guiyun walked over and grabbed her, sneering, “My purpose? Even though I cannot deal with Ronghua, can’t I deal with you?”

Even if Guiyun hadn’t caught her, You Yue couldn’t move now. She already got stunned as the two stood in front of her. How frightening they were! She had never seen such scary people after so long a period. Well, they had never said that they were humans!

You Yue felt both afraid and wronged, “I... I didn’t do anything, and I don’t know Ronghua. Why did you catch me?” At the end of speaking, she lost all confidence herself.

“Heh, aren’t you familiar with Ronghua? She always brings you wherever she goes. What’s more, why would she send someone to protect you and even send an expert who’s close to becoming a half-god?”

“Half... half-god?” You Yue was at a loss. Was Jun Lang a half-god? She knew that Ronghua was powerful but hadn’t expected that any person around her would be so formidable! No wonder Ronghua was so proud.

“Don’t you know?” Guiyun went over, “Ronghua is an excellent schemer!”

You Yue got stunned and wondered in mind, “A schemer? What will a schemer do? Is she the one specializing in evil deeds?”

“It’s impossible. How can Ronghua be that?”

The moment You Yue turned her head, she saw Guiyun’s satisfied smile and immediately knew that she had gotten into a trap.

She became angry, “You’re scheming against me?”

“That’s right!” Guiyun answered, without any hesitation, “So what?”

You Yue was so angry that she gritted her teeth. If it weren’t for the fact that the two seemed hard to deal with, she would have escaped after setting up the fire a long time ago.

You Yue could hardly lower her guard against them.

Seeing it was almost time, Milord Gui reached out his withered hands, which shocked You Yue to be goggle-eyed and even forget to be angry with Guiyun.

What kind of hands was that? They looked as if they had crawled out of hell. Suddenly, she felt hundreds of billions of worms crawling in her heart, making her itching and scared.

“What do you want to do?” She understood that she must have enough courage to talk to this kind of person. Otherwise, she would be scared to death!

Noticing that she didn’t hold on his hands, Milord Gui knew what she was thinking, but he didn’t care.

“We don’t have any bad intentions. We just want to ask you a favor. Okay?”

You Yue swallowed and looked into his eyes. She couldn’t help but nod. She didn’t have the guts to say no!

Tiny as his eyes were, there was a sense of irresistible power in them.

“What... what can I do for you? I cannot kill Ronghua even if you ask me to do.”

Milord Gui said, “Of course I won’t ask you to kill her. It’s not a big deal. We just want to keep informed about Princess Ronghua’s situation. It’s not a big problem, is it?” It would be a daydreaming to let her kill Ronghua. He had been scheming to kill Ronghua for a hundred thousand years and had never succeeded.

“It’s not a big deal? Are you kidding?” You Yue cursed in her heart.

“You’re trying to kill me, aren’t you? Who is Ronghua? You have already said that she’s the god race’s princess. Do you think I can afford to offend her?”

“To keep informed about her situation? Isn’t it that you want me to keep an eye on her all the time? If she finds out that I’ve tipped you off, I’ll die sooner or later.”

Seeing that she did not agree, Milord Gui smiled sinisterly, “If that’s the case, there’s no need to keep you here.”

You Yue kept cursing in mind, “What? Is it that you will kill anyone who has no value? It’s too fast for you to change your attitude!”

As soon as Milord Gui finished his words, Guiyun’s fingernails suddenly extended so long that they were about to reach into You Yue’s heart.

“No, no! Stop! We can negotiate, negotiate!”

Guiyun paused for a moment, “There’s no room for negotiation!”

Then, Milord Gui stopped Guiyun. You Yue waited for a long time but did not feel Guiyun’s hand attack her. There was no pain at all.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Milord Gui was gazing into her eyes. With this moment of carelessness, she fainted and fell to the ground.

Seeing her faint, Guiyun let go of her.

“Father, what’s the use of her? Isn’t it troublesome to keep her alive?”

Milord Gui glanced at her, “What do you know? This girl has the bloodline power of the god race. It is apparent that she gets it by heredity.”

Guiyun was stunned and asked, “How could that be? How would Ronghua let the god race’s bloodline spread out?”

Her words weren’t praising Ronghua. Without order, the gods weren’t allowed to leave the land of gods for life, nor would they be able to intermarry with the other races.

Milord Gui said, “At that time, the god race was going to its end, and Ronghua had no time to concern too much. It was already hard for her to protect herself. Do you think that all the gods are loyal? Many gods hate and loathe the god race. However, they cannot cultivate to increase their cultivation because of the order, and they are not allowed to leave the land of gods all their lives. Do you think that they would be willing to continue to stay there like a mortal?”

Guiyun partly understood why the god race had perished, “So you took advantage of this to join forces with the three races and exterminate the god race.”

Milord Gui said, “Humph. If it were so easy, everyone would have been able to go in.”

Guiyun lowered her head, “I don’t know. Please tell me.”

Milord Gui looked at her disdainfully, “What can you do except saying you don’t know? It is why you are not a patch on your sister.”

Guiyun bowed her head even lower.

Milord Gui said, “If no one invited you in, or the door didn’t get opened from the inside, who could get in? Do you think God Empress is just eye candy?”

He had spent a great deal of effort to join in gods. However, he hadn’t expected that God Empress would never allow him to enter the palace. It was also something that he was still brooding over. Why was he unable to get in even though he was also a member of the gods?

Milord Gui continued to say, “That we could enter so smoothly at that time also owes a good deal to the King of Death who reverted his power to the level of his ancestors successfully.”

Ronghua directly opened a portal and arrived at Xia Pumo’s territory.

It had been so long, and it should be almost time for them to finish what she ordered them to do!

It was Xia Puyang himself who had said that he would unconditionally protect Xia Pumo in the future, and he should take his responsibility this time.

As soon as they landed, they saw the imperial clan of Zither.

The imperial clan of Zither was located in the deep mountains. Most of the people who cultivated with the zither had some leisurely interest and elegance, which was also implied by the buildings here.

Because of being in the mountains, the well-arranged gardens always got enveloped in a fog that spread thousands of miles away. If you were in it, you would feel as if you were in a fairyland.

In the dawn, the fog was the thickest in a day, and the light was hazy. With singing birds and fragrant flowers, the morning bell rang, reminding people to do morning lessons.

The mountains were quiet, and people’s minds were also calm and sincere as still water. Only the sound of zithers seemed to be meaningful.

Rongnuan looked around, “Is here the imperial clan of Zither? It’s so beautiful!”

Ronghua also smiled, “This is Mo’s home. Of course, it’s a good place. Otherwise, how could someone like him be raised? As the saying goes, the unique features of a local environment always give special characteristics to its inhabitants.”

But it seemed that their current position was somewhat inappropriate.

“We... shouldn’t we go down now? There seems to be a lot of people watching us.”

Ronghua comforted him, “It’s good. Now we don’t have to find them by ourselves, and they will come first.”

Rongnuan, “....”

Sure enough, someone approached the next second. However, it was neither Xia Pumo nor Xia Puyang. Instead, it was an old man they had never seen before. He led a group of humans over in a menacing manner.

Ronghua watched them all the way and couldn’t help but shake her head, “I’m afraid I have to deal with it first before going to see them.”

The aggressive appearance of this group of people implied that they might have arrived at the wrong place.

“Who are you? Do you think our imperial clan of Zither is a place where everyone can barge in?”

Rongnuan hid behind Ronghua consciously. It was better to let Ronghua handle this kind of thing.

Jun Lang glanced at him and frowned, “Coward!”

Rongnuan suddenly turned around and stared at him coldly, as if he was looking at an ant. His eyes were full of murderous intent. Jun Lang felt shocked. When did Rongnuan have such an imposing manner?

He could not help but tightly held the sword at his waist.

Ronghua didn’t notice it. She held Rongnuan’s hand to comfort him, telling him not to be afraid, and it was okay.

As soon as Ronghua’s hand approached, the disdain on Rongnuan’s face immediately changed into harmlessness very fast.

Jun Lang was stunned and restrained himself as much as possible, with the veins on his forehead bulging.

“You don’t need to know who I am. It’s enough that your patriarch knows it, and Xia Pumo knows it.”

The old man didn’t expect Ronghua to mention Xia Pumo. He suddenly calmed down a bit, “How do you know that Young Master Mo returned?”

“It’s simple. I asked him to come back.”

This time, the old man’s face became even darker, “What did you say? Who do you think you are?”

“Who do you think I am?” Ronghua narrowed her eyes, clearly with some intention of killing, “Go to ask Xia Puyang, who I am.”

“Who cares who you are? Come and catch them.”

Seven or eight people surrounded Ronghua, Rongnuan, and Jun Lang in the air. Their movements brought wind. Ronghua turned her head and saw that they were holding the zithers. Were they going to set up an inescapable formation?

A mocking smile formed at the corner of Ronghua’s lips.

The wind blew her clothes. Having learned lessons from the past, she no longer wore long dresses. But now, her dress was not short enough. Rongnuan hugged her and happened to keep her dress from being blow up. She didn’t know whether he was intentional or not.

Jun Lang pulled out his tulwar and stood in front of them, “Sister Hua Sheng, you two step back.”

Unexpectedly!

“You’re wrong!”

Ronghua stood in front of him and brushed him away, “Call me Sister Ronghua! I have a simpler method!— Xia Pumo!”

Although her voice wasn’t loud, as soon as she raised her hand, her voice immediately spread throughout the entire mountain range and spread all over the imperial clan of Zither.

Her voice broke the peaceful morning, making many disciples who were doing morning exercises shiver. They felt pain in their ears and couldn’t help looking in the direction of the voice.

Except for the three of them, everyone on-site covered their ears with their hands. However, it was of no use. The formation that they had not finished dissipated just like that.

Xia Pumo had just gotten up at this time, and Murong Zhe was still lying in bed.

“Don’t you want to get up?”

Xia Pumo asked Murong Zhe. Although Murong Zhe never followed his words, he would still ask him this question every day.

“No, I don’t.”

Murong Zhe hugged Xia Pumo’s pillow and continued to sleep. It would be a pity not to sleep in such a comfortable morning.

As soon as Xia Pumo was dressed up, he heard a loud voice that not only made his ears ache but also shook the house.

Before he could react, Murong Zhe yawned casually, turned over, and said, “According to the voice, I know it should be Ronghua that came here. Go to have a look, and stop them if they fight. Ronghua always beat others hard. It’s a small matter to ruin the imperial clan of Zither. But if she hurt someone, it would be a big matter.”

Then he rolled over and continued to sleep.

Xia Pumo replied, “Okay. Go on to your sleep. I’ll go take a look, in case they will get into a fight.”

He got up and went out, gently closing the door.

Murong Zhe continued to sleep, but he suddenly woke up when Xia Pumo barely took a few steps. It hit him that Ronghua was here.

He grabbed his clothes and rushed out, “Wait for me, sweetheart, I will go too.”

Here came Ronghua again. His life would no longer be as peaceful as it used to be.

Ronghua pulled Rongnuan closer and sighed, “I don’t know how you guys managed to survive. You’re so weak!”

Rongnuan looked at them, “Huahua, I don’t think they can ward off even one blow of you!”

The cultivators of the imperial clan of Zither also had sharp ears. No matter how soft his voice was, there were still people who heard his words. Their expressions soon became filled with grief and anger, as well as other mixed feelings.

Ronghua snorted coldly, “Just so so!”

She turned her head to look, “Let’s talk about it when Xia Pumo is here. I advise you not to act rashly. If I hurt you coincidently, it’ll be a problem again.”

The old man was so angry that he almost spat out blood. It was the first time that he had been beaten like this. However, he would like to see who this woman was and why she was so arrogant.
