"I see."
The young man's calm voice suddenly rang out in front of him.
Pei You'an raised her head.
Ye Li had already put down the Jade Slip in his hand, his expression unchanged from when he entered:
"Don't worry, I'll take it."
Upon hearing this...
Pei You'an's tense mind suddenly relaxed for some reason.
That feeling of restlessness and uncertainty about what to do vanished almost entirely!
She hurriedly asked:
"So... when do we set off?"
"What do I need to prepare? I still have some Magic Treasure that should come in handy."
Ye Li said, "Just pack a little something, we'll be leaving soon."
"Good!"
Pei You'an readily agreed.
She left the things on the table, turned around and quickly left the Quiet Room to retrieve the Magic Treasure she had recently accumulated.
Until the footsteps faded into the distance.
Ye Li took out the Palace Heir Token and sent Communication Transmission to Qingyuan True Cultivator.
A moment later.
The familiar old man in the Green Robe appeared before them, also holding a cup of Spirit Tea in his hand.
Inside the palace behind, several murals with sword patterns can be vaguely seen.
This Supreme Clarity Palace True Person is clearly still a guest in [Sword Song Valley].
"Ye Li?"
When Qingyuan True Cultivator saw him, he smiled with some surprise:
"You've come at the perfect time; I was just looking for you."
"What's wrong?" Ye Li asked.
"The Longwind Divine Dynasty of the Eternal Night Continent, for reasons unknown, suddenly sent an invitation to our Supreme Clarity Palace."
Qingyuan True Cultivator put down his teacup, raised his hand to take out a letter, and hissed:
"The wording was quite tactful; they said they wanted to invite you to the capital to discuss matters concerning the Qin family."
Do you have any clues?
"I've got a lead."
Ye Li nodded and said, "I was just about to go take a look."
Qingyuan True Cultivator glanced at him, taking in the Killing Intent surging between his brows and eyes, and then smiled:
"It seems I asked a bit too late. Is the palace's assistance needed in this matter?"
"Need."
Ye Li didn't stand on ceremony and said directly:
"I want the method from within the palace to advance to the Fortune-Mastery Realm. Could you let me take a look?"
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan True Cultivator's smile deepened, and he exclaimed in surprise:
"You're already feeling the thrill of a promotion?"
"No problem! I'll have someone from inside the sect deliver it to you right away. Just tell me the location!"
While using the Token to transmit the coordinates of the location, Ye Li casually asked:
Why didn't you tell me to be more careful this time?
I trust you to do things right, and since you've already decided to go, you might not be willing to listen to anything I say.
Qingyuan True Cultivator shook his head dismissively, picked up his teacup again, and added with a smile:
"Furthermore, the Palace Master is also going to the Eternal Night Continent in a couple of days."
"With her protecting you, she's much more reliable than me!"
At the same time.
Eternal Night Continent, inland area.
The majestic Imperial Palace, stretching for thousands of miles, appears on the horizon like a crouching behemoth.
At this moment, inside a luxurious palace.
The pearl lamps hang high, and a warm fragrance wafts gently.
Several radiant spiritual plants were placed by the window, their surroundings radiating an extremely rich spiritual Spiritual Energy.
On the nearby table, several boxes of unused healing Treasure Pellet could still be seen.
Qin Baiyi sat at the desk, gazing at the woman who had just entered, and rose to say calmly:
"Qin Baiyi greets the Third Princess."
The Third Princess was clearly pleased and waved her hand, laughing, "Oh dear, no need for formalities!"
She seemed to be in a particularly good mood today.
He beckoned to a palace maid to bring the tray closer, then personally unfolded the robes on it and chuckled softly:
"Look, I just prepared this for you!"
The female official's robe, woven from purple silk, was adorned with ever-flowing cloud patterns embroidered with gold thread, and a jade Jade Pendant of exceptional quality was worn at her waist.
"The sizes are based on your previous measurements, so they shouldn't be wrong."
"There's a banquet at the palace in a couple of days, so you can come with me. Also, I've added you to the list of people going on trips next month!"
As she spoke, she handed over the clothes.
After a brief glance, Qin Baiyi folded the items back up and placed them back on the tray, saying calmly:
"Princess, I haven't agreed to stay yet."
"..."
The Third Princess's smile faded slightly, but her tone remained quite amiable.
"If you think the benefits aren't enough, I can increase your salary. Just name a number."
"If you need any special methods Treasure Medicine in the future, you can tell me directly."
"I'll have someone take good care of your parents. Why do you have to go out and suffer?"
Qin Baiyi looked up at her and said:
"I just want to get my parents out of here, according to the previously approved documents."
The Third Princess frowned. "Why are you still saying the same thing?"
"I came here in person and told you everything I could. Don't you have anything else to say?"
"No."
The hall fell silent for a moment.
The Third Princess, finally becoming somewhat irritated, put the Jade Pendant back on the tray and scolded:
"You never used to talk so much when I asked you to go out for a walk with me. You've really picked up a lot of bad habits while you were out here!"
Qin Baiyi looked at her and slowly said:
"You never forced me to go when I didn't want to."
"..."
The Third Princess's face immediately turned cold.
She stared at Qin Baiyi for a moment, then finally let out a cold snort and turned to leave.
The palace maids quickly followed.
As the palace doors opened.
Qin Baiyi also saw the Fortune-Mastery standing outside the corridor.
The other person slightly turned to the side to see the Third Princess off, and then returned to their original position.
Qin Baiyi withdrew his gaze, his expression gradually turning worried.
I wonder how my parents are doing now.
These days, she certainly doesn't just sit here waiting for news.
She tried to find out when the guards would change shifts, whether summoning Communication Transmission required permission, and which villa her parents had been sent to.
Write down anything that can be verified.
The information that could have been leaked has been compiled and handed over to Pei You'an.
However, she was no match for the Fortune-Mastery outside the gate, so she could only wait for news here.
Fortunately, the royal family did not prevent her from seeking help.
When she mentioned needing a means of intercontinental Communication Transmission, they even proactively provided the corresponding Magic Treasure.
Clearly, the Longwind Divine Dynasty also wanted Ye Li to come over.
As for what we'll discuss once we arrive...
That's not something she can decide.
Qin Baiyi let out a soft breath, looked out the window, and felt increasingly uneasy.
"What a burden."
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Originally, I just wanted to finish my own business, but in the end, I dragged Prefect Ye into it.
No wonder those ancient cultivators are quick to sever emotions and ties, becoming cold and ruthless.
If you make the wrong friends and run into someone as unlucky as her, you'll have nowhere to turn for help.
"Prefect Ye..."
Qin Baiyi murmured a sentence, her tone quite sorrowful.
With True Lord presiding over it, the Longwind Divine Dynasty is absolutely a forbidden zone in the eyes of any cultivator!
Hopefully, the other party will act within their capabilities, foresee the dangers of this place beforehand, and refrain from coming blindly.
Otherwise, she would truly be a sinner deserving of death!!
