"Little sister, whatever happens, just run outside and don't look back."

Dongfang Huaizhu was also on guard, instinctively protecting her younger sister behind her back, her eyes fixed on Feixiao in front of her, while whispering instructions to her sister.

If something were to happen, she would do everything in her power to buy Qin Lan some time to escape.

However, she did not act rashly immediately. Although she was not clear about the situation, Feixiao in front of her did not seem to have any hostility or killing intent.

No, I don't want to.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Qinlan quickly shook her head. How could she abandon her sister? Then, she glared angrily at Feixiao ahead, lost in thought.

"Be good, or I'll never take you out again."

Seeing her younger sister like this, Dongfang Huaizhu felt a little anxious.

"Do I really look like a bad guy?"

Although the Dongfang Huaizhu sisters were speaking very softly, Feixiao could hear them clearly. She didn't mind, and simply smiled and asked.

"Hmph, not a bad person, but a wicked demon! A wicked fox!"

Dongfang Qinlan stared at Feixiao with wide eyes and directly refuted her words.

She dared to speak to Feixiao like that because her intuition told her that Feixiao wouldn't really do anything to her. Her intuition and luck had always been accurate and never wrong.

But to outsiders, it doesn't seem that way.

"Little sister, shut up."

Huaizhu's heart tightened at Dongfang Qinlan's words, and she quickly interrupted her.

Although she couldn't sense any demonic power from Feixiao, there was no doubt that she was extremely powerful. Since they already had no chance of winning, if the younger sister were to further provoke her, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"I apologize, my younger sister is young and lacks manners, please forgive me, senior. May I ask what brings you to my Divine Fire Manor?"

Dongfang Huaizhu bowed with both hands, trying to show goodwill, and cautiously inquired about the reason why Feixiao had appeared at the Divine Fire Manor.

If it's revenge, then that's troublesome!

"You don't need to be so nervous. I have no other purpose in coming here. As for what needs to be said and discussed... I have already discussed it with Master Dongfang."

"Has it been settled? And what about my father now...?"

Dongfang Huaizhu was slightly taken aback and subconsciously became worried about her father. After all, Dongfang Guyue's health was not as good as before, and she was really worried about what might happen.

"Master Dongfang is currently receiving treatment, and judging by the time, it should be over by now. I was just about to go and see him. If Miss Huaizhu is worried about her father, please come with me!"

"Receive treatment?"

What exactly happened?

Dongfang Huaizhu was a little confused, but the fact that his father seemed to be alright put his mind at ease.

Things must be different from what those disciples from the mountain villa said.

"Then I will go with you, senior."

She was worried about her father, so naturally she had to go and see him.

However, Dongfang Huaizhu did not completely dispel her suspicions about Feixiao. She looked at her younger sister beside her, hoping that she would go to a safe place first.

If anything were to happen, at least my little sister would be safe.

However, Dongfang Qinlan did not listen to her at all and had no intention of leaving. She also wanted to go see Dongfang Guyue together.

With no other option, Dongfang Huaizhu had to give up.

Together with Feixiao, they headed to the main hall of the manor. On the way, Dongfang Huaizhu cautiously continued to inquire about the situation.

Upon learning that it was actually the sister of the Hirudo King who was treating her father, she was quite surprised.

She had heard of the reputation of the King of Leeches, but she had never considered asking him to take action, mainly because they were on different sides and she instinctively felt it was impossible.

I never imagined that something that should never have happened would actually happen while I was away for a few days.

Before long, the three arrived at Dongfang Guyue's house. At this time Jade Singing Luan had finished her work and was explaining some matters to Dongfang Guyue.

They stopped when they noticed Feixiao and Dongfang Huaizhu approaching.

"Huaizhu and Qin Lan, you're back. Did anything happen on the way?"

At this moment, Dongfang Guyue looked much more energetic than before, and a hint of concern appeared in her eyes as she looked at her two daughters.

His biggest worry was his two daughters.

Once the secrets of the Dongfang Spirit Race women are known to outsiders, without his protection, they will definitely be targeted.

He didn't even dare to think about what would happen then.

"No, nothing unexpected."

"Dad, how are you feeling now?"

Seeing Dongfang Guyue's mental state, Dongfang Huaizhu's worries were completely relieved. Not only was her father alright, but his condition had actually improved considerably.

"Thanks to Miss Mingluan's treatment, I'm much better. It shouldn't be a problem for me to live a few more years or even see you get married."

"Father..."

Upon hearing the word "marriage, "Dongfang Huaizhu blushed.

But then she shook her head, because she had never thought about these things, and so far she had not met anyone she liked.

Given the situation of the Dongfang Spirit Race, she and her younger sister couldn't just choose one of them randomly.

"Thank you, Miss Mingluan, for treating my father."

Dongfang Huaizhu turned around and earnestly thanked Jade Singing Luan.

They did not have any other thoughts or opinions because of their monster identity; the distinction between good and evil was not based on race but on behavior.

She will take action against monsters that harm the area, but she also respects those Demon Race who bring blessings to the land.

Not to mention the demon who saved his own father.

"You should thank her."

Jade Singing Luan quickly waved her hand, her gaze turning to Feixiao. If Feixiao hadn't asked her to intervene, she wouldn't have treated Dongfang Guyue.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Huaizhu thanked Feixiao once again.

"Alright, it's not appropriate for us to stay here any longer, so it's time to say goodbye."

After having a meal at the Divine Fire Manor, Feixiao decided not to stay there any longer, as it wasn't really appropriate for him to stay any longer.

It's not yet appropriate for the Divine Fire Manor to completely sever One Qi Dao Alliance.

"Old Master, don't forget what you promised me."

Feixiao stood up, stretched, and then gave Dongfang Guyue another few instructions.

He hadn't told her the location of the Dongfang Secret Realm yet.

I must meet with Dongfang Bu there.

We'll talk about the rest after we meet Dongfang Bu.

"Don't worry, I will remember it and won't forget it."

Dongfang Guyue assured Feixiao that the Dongfang clan must make changes...

Joining Feixiao in conquering those Outside the Circle is extremely dangerous, but the rewards upon success are unimaginable.

As for why he felt that Feixiao in front of him had the potential to accomplish something he never dared to imagine, it was simply because he had witnessed what a "Emanator" was.

He had never seen the one from Aolai Country make a move, but the Feixiao before him was definitely no less powerful than him.

No wonder Feixiao dared to say that she could do what the Aolai Sanshao couldn't; she certainly had the confidence.

"Just remember that, Mingluan, Xiao Tan, let's go..."

Feixiao nodded and said no more.

She kept two little Heliobus as a backup plan, and wasn't worried that he would deceive her.

"Huaizhu".

Seeing that Feixiao and the other two were about to leave, Dongfang Guyue called to her daughter beside her, preparing to go and see them off.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Huaizhu understood her father's meaning and quickly got up.

Although they didn't know what deal their father had made with the fox demon girl named Feixiao, it seemed that the Dongfang Family was on the same side as her.

This is undoubtedly something the Dao Alliance will not allow.

But since it was her father's decision, she had no right to say anything.

"Has Master Dongfang considered who will inherit Divine Fire Manor after you leave?"

As Feixiao left Divine Fire Manor, he noticed the disciples of the Divine Fire Manor and suddenly asked Dongfang Guyue a question.

In the original story, because Jin Renfeng's blood transfusion was incomplete, he did not take care of the Divine Fire Manor. This power, which was comparable to the Wang Quan Family as the number one in the Dao Alliance, was gone just like that, which is truly a pity.

Although Jin Renfeng is no longer here, none of the other disciples in the manor are capable of inheriting the manor and shouldering this great responsibility.

"To my shame, I have dominated the world for a lifetime, yet I have not had a single worthy successor..."

Upon hearing Feixiao's question, Dongfang Guyue paused for a moment before sighing and speaking.

It's not necessarily true that no one will inherit the manor, but these people don't meet his requirements, and the manor will probably slowly decline under their care.

Unlike the Wang Quan Family, Divine Fire Manor became a top force in the Dao Alliance because of its Pure Yang Flame.

The only ones who could provide Pure Yang Flame were him and his two daughters.

If he's gone, Huaizhu won't be able to control the situation, and trouble will inevitably arise sooner or later...

"Wouldn't Miss Huaizhu be a good fit?"

Feixiao looked at Dongfang Huaizhu beside him.

She's barely qualified; she's probably the only one capable of inheriting the Divine Fire Manor.

However, this means that Dongfang Huaizhu cannot get married and can only find a husband to come to her home.

"..."

Dongfang Huaizhu was taken aback, not expecting the conversation to suddenly turn to her, but she hadn't really thought about these things carefully.

"Huaizhu..."

Dongfang Guyue shook his head.

He had considered it that way, but he still had many concerns.

Therefore, his ideal is for the Huaizhu sisters to find a talented son-in-law to live with them and manage the manor together.

Given the physical constitution of women from the Dongfang Spirit Race, their children can inherit the power and talent of both parents and quickly become powerful figures.

They might even be stronger than him.

But where can you find someone so exceptionally talented, powerful, reliable, and without ulterior motives, who also has to come to your door and whom your daughter likes?

"I think Miss Huaizhu is exceptionally talented, and with her Pure Yang Flame, she may very well become a grandmaster in the future."

Dongfang Huaizhu has good talent, is full of spirituality, and has Pure Yang Flame. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for her to give birth to a top-level expert like Wang Quan Fugui in the original story.

The real General Feixiao actually intended to teach a disciple.

However, she has already dedicated all her limited life and time to the Xianzhou and the Imperial Bow, so she cannot teach disciples like General Huaiyan or General Jing Yuan.

But in this world, she can fulfill the wishes of the real General Feixiao.

So she thought for a moment and then said directly to Dongfang Guyue and Huaizhu, "Miss Huaizhu, would you like to consider joining my ranks? I happen to have some free time now and can teach others martial arts..."

Compared to General Tianji, who was always either Heavenly Strike General, she certainly had a lot of free time.

Even if it's about unifying the inner circle and attacking those Outside the Circle, there's no need to rush.

However, she didn't insist, so she added another sentence.

"Of course, it's fine if Miss Huaizhu is unwilling. I'm just asking for your opinion, not forcing you."

The reason she suddenly thought of telling Dongfang Huaizhu these things was firstly because she liked this person quite a bit, and also because he was talented enough to become one of her generals.

In addition, having her by his side is a kind of guarantee, so Dongfang Guyue will be more dedicated to doing things for her.
