"I want to be absolutely sure."

Lou Fuyue's eyes darkened slightly, "If I find out there is a hidden story, and your Huo family is involved..."

“It’s really unfair.”

Huo Qingfeng raised his hands in surrender, "Jiang Xueji was brought back by my eldest brother himself. I didn't have time to learn anything."

Lou Fuyue sneered.

"It seems that your position as Master Huo San is not that high."

Huo Qingfeng shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "My eldest brother has disliked me for a long time, but as long as I am the only one in the Huo family who is in the Mahayana stage, he can't touch me."

"Ah."

Lou Fuyue sneered, "You really suppressed your cultivation when you were in Jianhua Immortal Sect."

At that time, Huo Qingfeng had only reached the Great Perfection of Spirit Transformation.

"Didn't you hide it too? It's the late Jindan stage."

Huo Qingfeng threw the question back.

Lou Fuyue was speechless for a while. It wasn't that he was pretending, but it was a sequelae. However, this obviously didn't need to be told to Huo Qingfeng.

"It seems that I have to go to the Huo family in person."

Hearing this, Huo Qingfeng stared at him seriously, "The Huo family is guarded by my father and my eldest brother right now. Can Jiang Xueji make you take such a big risk?"

"I don't care whether she lives or dies."

Lou Fuyue gave a cold smile, "It's just that my junior sister will be coming to Zhongzhou in a while. Given her personality, it will be difficult for her not to get involved in this matter."

"So it's for Chao Zhao..."

Huo Qingfeng teased him half-jokingly, "Your mentality as a parent is too abnormal. You rushed over to check for unstable factors before the people arrived."

As the words fell, a crimson light flashed across Lou Fuyue's eyes.

"You can try."

"Tsk."

The threatened Huo Qingfeng raised his hands in surrender again, "Forget it, after all, we have a life-long friendship, I will help you again."

"Jiang Xueji is not in the Huo family. She is imprisoned in a courtyard outside Tianyong City."

"close?"

Lou Fuyue pondered over this word.

Huo Qingfeng spoke calmly, "She went crazy after being sent back. Not only did she talk nonsense, she also kept hurting herself. The Huo family had no choice but to seal her spiritual power."

Lou Fuyue had a blank expression on her face: "Is this what Mr. Huo San meant by not having enough time to understand anything?"

"I really didn't make it in time, so please take care of me later."

Huo Qingfeng gave an innocent smile.

Lou Fuyue just turned around and left.

The two figures quickly disappeared from the top floor of Twelve Floors City and flew towards the outskirts of Tianyong City.

......

The aristocratic families that have been entrenched in Zhongzhou for thousands of years naturally have more than one asset. In addition to the assets that are visible, there are countless assets hidden in secret.

The place where Jiang Xueji was imprisoned was, on the surface, just a farm.

Some ordinary people also live in Tianyong City.

These ordinary people, eager to embark on the path to immortality, chose to live near the spiritually rich Tianyong City, and have lived here for generations.

Lou Fuyue and Huo Qingfeng walked past the ordinary people who were resting in the farm and came to a hidden small courtyard behind the farm.

In order not to attract attention, there were no obvious guards guarding the yard. There was only an elderly man and a maid. The people sent by the Huo family to guard were hiding in the dark.

However, these guards in the dark and the restrictions set up around the room were obviously not enough for them.

After exchanging a glance with Huo Qingfeng, Lou Fuyue cast a talisman to conceal herself, then left him behind and rushed into the house.

Although he does not have the spiritual power that can go unnoticed like Chao Zhao, he does have his own special abilities.

Huo Qingfeng smiled silently and followed.

——The restrictions set by the Huo family are naturally useless to him, who has the blood of the Huo family.

The yard was silent, and there was only a dim light from a candlestick in Jiang Xueji's room.

When Lou Fuyue sneaked in, what he saw was Jiang Xueji sitting in front of the dressing mirror, combing her hair mechanically and silently.

"........."

He paused, thinking that it was a good thing that his junior sister didn't have to see this sad scene.

Jiang Xueji's eyes were empty and numb. She repeated the action of combing her hair over and over again, as if she was tireless.

Lou Fuyue noticed the black bracelets bound her limbs. They should have been given to her by the Huo family to suppress her madness.

Just at this time Huo Qingfeng came to him, and Lou Fuyue gestured to him to cover her.

Huo Qingfeng shrugged his shoulders to show his agreement.

Lou Fuyue's figure appeared behind Jiang Xueji like a ghost, with the crimson color in his eyes flowing with shimmering light, as if just one glance could captivate people.

"Jiang Xueji."

A ghostly voice sounded faintly, but Jiang Xueji was still staring at herself in the mirror, unmoved.

But Lou Fuyue leaned down slightly, and his blurred face also appeared in the mirror, with only the blooming crimson waves remaining.

A strange red light flashed in Jiang Xueji's empty and numb eyes, and she gradually slowed down her hair-combing movements.

At this moment, she was like a puppet, allowing Lou Fuyue to spy on her secrets.

After a moment, Lou Fuyue murmured strangely: "...Strange."

He frowned slightly and turned back quickly.

"Walk."

With the tacit understanding of each other for two hundred years, Huo Qingfeng quickly understood his intention, and the two of them left the villa quietly.

After they left, the controlled Jiang Xueji returned to her previous state.

She picked up the wooden comb on the table again and combed her hair.

However, this numb and mechanical movement seemed strange as the smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her lifeless face.

"I'm not wrong..."

The light voice flashed by like a ghost, and disappeared in an instant, "Anyway, there can only be one person left in the Jiang family, and that can only be me."

......

"what have you found?"

After returning to the Twelve Floors and Five Cities, Huo Qingfeng couldn't help but ask him.

Lou Fuyue glanced at him: "Nothing."

"...Please at least reveal a little bit."

Huo Qingfeng's mouth twitched.

"This is the truth."

Lou Fuyue shook her head. "She is indeed crazy, but there is nothing else unusual about her."

He also thought about exploring her memory directly, but given Jiang Xueji's current condition, if he searched directly, he was afraid that her consciousness would not be able to withstand it and her body would explode and die.

What's more, he still vividly remembered the moment when the master of Pingjian Peak disappeared in front of him when Jianhua Immortal Sect used the pupil technique. Lou Fuyue didn't want to alert the enemy for the time being.

"That's strange..."

Huo Qingfeng's eyes flashed with a faint light, "Even your ability can't detect anything, the water behind this is really deep."

They both believed that the Jiang family's demise was definitely not a simple matter.

"The Huo family must have one too."

Lou Fuyue sneered.

Huo Qingfeng raised the corners of his lips helplessly: "Being born into such a family is not something I can choose. It's not just me, my sister is the same."

It's just that his sister was much more decisive and brave than him, but in the end she ended up dying.

"Your sister..."

Lou Fuyue frowned slightly, as if thinking about something, "Fu Xunying's mother?"

"Yes."

Huo Qingfeng nodded.

"I advise you to pay more attention to her in the Huo family. Chao Zhao has mentioned the things in the secret realm to me several times."

"Ok?"

Huo Qingfeng's eyebrows were slightly solemn, "What's the matter?"

He was not good at dealing with juniors, and Fu Xunying was not the kind of child who would cry and complain about her grievances, so he could not take care of her in many places.

"The taming bell."

Lou Fuyue raised the corners of her lips lazily, "In the secret realm, Huo Aoran has been forcing Fu Xunying to use the Taming Bell."

The Beast Taming Bell is the treasure of the Xunxin Sect. Although it is not a true magic weapon, it can be considered half a magic weapon.

Any spiritual weapon that is crowned as a divine weapon contains a certain amount of luck.
