"Yes!" Tianying nodded, but then frowned again, wondering in confusion, "Did he call us over just to tell us that he was leaving? Why didn't he tell the maids directly? Does he have any special intentions?" Her eyes flickered with confusion and curiosity, as if she wanted to explore his true intentions through the mysterious veil of Zihuang.

Shen Longyuan was also confused. He looked at the direction where Zihuang disappeared and muttered to himself, "Zihuang's style of doing things is really unfathomable and difficult to understand. He always seems to appear at the critical moment, and then leave quietly, leaving one mystery after another."

"Forget it, I don't want to think too much about it." Tianying shook her head gently, trying to dispel the doubts in her heart, "Xuanxin is coming back soon, this is good news, we must tell Mammy quickly, she has been immersed in worry and self-blame during this period of time."

Shen Longyuan looked at Tianying tenderly, thinking that he felt the same way. Ever since Lu Xuanxin was abducted, they both fell into deep self-blame and worry, as if they were shrouded in an invisible haze. Until Zihuang appeared, they were still worried that he was coming to call for punishment. But now, knowing that Xuanxin had news, the haze in their hearts finally dissipated a little.

On the way back, the sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves onto the ground, creating mottled light and shadows. Gui Jianxiao and the others had just put away the elixir and were sitting together discussing the mystery and power of the purple bamboo. Li Yu was quietly healing on the side. Her face gradually became rosy and her breath became more stable. Tian Ying stood quietly on the side, afraid to disturb her.

After learning Xuan Xin's true identity, Lu Murongzi felt much more relaxed. She was no longer weighed down by Elder Ji's death, but was filled with anticipation and joy for Xuan Xin's return. She and Tian Ying smiled at each other, with happiness in their eyes. Ying also occasionally interrupted, and the three of them were having a great time, as if they had returned to their carefree days.

Not long after, they stopped again. A burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the forest.

"You slut, why don't you have eyes when you walk?" Yun Yan'er stood not far away, one hand on her waist, the other hand pointing at Xuan Xin and the other two, and cursed angrily. Her face was ferocious, her eyes were red, as if she was engulfed by an invisible rage.

Murong Zi got angry when she heard this. She quickly stepped forward to confront Yun Yan'er: "Are you crazy? We are so far away from you, how could we possibly run into you? What are you crazy about?" There was anger and confusion in her voice, and she was obviously irritated by Yun Yan'er's sudden attack.

"You bastard, you dare to talk back! You're courting death!" Yun Yan'er was extremely angry. A long whip instantly appeared in her hand and she swung it towards Murong Zi's face. Her movements were swift and fierce, as if she wanted to pour all her anger on Murong Zi.

Murongzi was horrified. She didn't expect that this gentle-looking beauty was actually a lunatic. She wanted to dodge, but her body seemed to be frozen and couldn't move. It was obvious that her cultivation was suppressed, her Qi was locked, and she had nowhere to escape. A trace of fear and despair flashed in her eyes.

Seeing this, Ying quickly stretched out his long arms and pulled Murong Zi out of the danger zone. His movements were agile and powerful, like a black lightning streaking through space. Xuanxin and the other three also hurriedly retreated, fearing that they would be affected by Yun Yan'er's anger.

"Enough!" Shen Biyao arrived in time to stop Yun Yan'er and took away her whip. She looked at Yun Yan'er with great sorrow and said, "Yan'er, why have you become so crazy? You were not like this before!" Her voice was filled with sorrow and confusion, and she was obviously shocked by Yun Yan'er's change.

"Never mind your business!" Yun Yan'er was furious and took out her long sword and rushed towards Xuan Xin and the other two. There was a crazy flame flashing in her eyes, as if she wanted to burn everything to ashes.

Ying wanted to step forward to stop them but was stopped by Xuan Xin. Xuan Xin picked up an ordinary wooden stick from the side with a deep look in her eyes and prepared to fight. Her eyes flashed with determination and courage, as if she was not afraid of Yun Yan'er's anger.

As soon as she came into contact with Yun Yan'er, Xuan Xin felt the breath of the devil. She didn't know how Yun Yan'er was corrupted by the devil, but her character had become extremely violent. If she continued like this, she would probably be completely controlled by the devil and become a demon who only knew how to kill. A trace of worry and determination flashed in Xuan Xin's eyes. She knew she had to stop all this from happening.

Shen Biyao stood aside in shock. When she saw Xuan Xin, she felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy. But she didn't know why. She looked at Xuan Xin carefully and found that she looked ordinary and her cultivation was not high. This made her even more confused. She muttered to herself: "Who is this girl? Why do I feel so close to her?"

Shen Biyao thought of Xuanxin's portrait and thought that the girl who was close to her was her granddaughter. But after a careful search, she found no similarities. However, she firmly believed that her feeling was not wrong. So she decided to send a message to Yunxiao, perhaps Lin Xiaofeng could solve this mystery.

When she looked up, she saw Xuan Xin holding a wooden stick and confronting Yun Yan'er. When the sword and stick were about to intersect, she rushed to Xuan Xin in shock, not wanting to see her get hurt. She pulled Xuan Xin away from the danger zone and snatched Yun Yan'er's sword again, angrily shouting: "Yan'er! Enough! If you continue like this, you will lose control!"

"Humph! You favor this bastard and don't even care about me! If that's the case, why did you give birth to me?" Yun Yan'er screamed madly with her eyes red as blood. Her voice was filled with endless hatred and anger, as if she wanted to destroy everything.

"Auntie, stop her! It will be too late!" Xuan Xin shouted anxiously while standing in front of Shen Bi Yao to protect her. Her eyes flashed with determination and courage, as if she was not afraid of Yun Yan'er's anger.

"What did you say?" Shen Biyao looked back at Xuanxin with a gleam in her eyes. She muttered to herself, "What does this girl know? Why is she so eager for me to stop Yan'er?"

Xuan Xin was shocked by her momentum and took two steps back. She held the stick horizontally in front of her and chose her words carefully: "Auntie Yun Yan'er seems to be controlled by some kind of power. Look at her eyes, they are red with black light. This is a sign of demonic erosion. If she is not stopped, she may become a demon who only knows how to kill."

Shen Biyao looked at Yun Yan'er again and noticed something strange. As the mistress of a hidden clan, she naturally knew many secrets. But knowing and experiencing it personally were two completely different things. What's more, this matter involved her loved ones. She felt an endless pain and worry in her heart.

"Ah——" Yun Yan'er suddenly screamed towards the sky, her eyes becoming even redder. She seemed to be controlled by an invisible force, her body began to twist and deform. Her eyes were filled with hatred and anger, as if she wanted to destroy everything.

Seeing this, Xuan Xin passed by Shen Biyao without thinking. She held the wooden stick and hit Yun Yan'er's back of the head fiercely. This blow condensed all her spiritual power and determination. She must stop Yun Yan'er from losing control.

Yun Yan'er turned around and glared at Xuan Xin fiercely, her eyes full of hatred and anger. But then she closed her eyes and slowly fell to the ground. Her body gradually relaxed as if all the anger and hatred had dissipated with this blow.

"Yan'er!" Shen Biyao hugged her in grief. Her tears soaked her clothes and her heart was filled with endless pain and self-blame. She regretted not stopping Yun Yan'er from coming together, which led to such a disaster. She looked at Xuanxin with eyes full of gratitude and admiration. She knew that it was this girl who saved her granddaughter.

Although Yun Yan'er's sea of ​​consciousness is small, it is like a deep pool of water, hiding unknown secrets. Lu Xuanxin concentrated his mind and went deep into every corner of the sea of ​​consciousness. Finally, in the chaos, he found a wisp of black mist curled up in the corner. The black mist seemed to have spirituality, sensing Xuanxin's arrival, and was ready to move, but was suppressed by some force.

Xuan Xin understood that the stick just now played a key role in the black fog, preventing it from wreaking havoc temporarily. She did not dare to neglect it, and quickly urged the spiritual energy in her body, carefully wrapped the black fog, and then slowly swallowed it into her body. The black fog tried to attack back, but as soon as it reached Xuan Xin's heart, it was instantly destroyed by the power of the colorful clouds in her body, turning into a wisp of green smoke and dissipating without a trace.

Xuan Xin slowly opened her eyes and let go of Yun Yan'er's hand. There was a hint of fatigue in her eyes, but more of it was determination and relief. She knew that she had eliminated a huge hidden danger for Yun Yan'er.

"Little girl, is my Yan'er okay?" Shen Biyao looked at Xuanxin anxiously, her voice trembling a little. She was too worried about Yun Yan'er, this daughter was the treasure in her heart.

"Don't worry, Auntie. My sister is fine now." Xuan Xin consoled her with a smile, "But Auntie, you must pay more attention to the people and things Yan'er comes into contact with in the future. You must be extra cautious."

Yun Yan'er's situation was obviously controlled by the black fog. But this was not a dark forest, and there was no breath of demonic energy in the mountains. So there was only one possibility, Yun Yan'er had come into contact with people or objects contaminated by demonic energy before. Xuan Xin thought to himself and decided to pay more attention in the future.

"I understand." Shen Biyao nodded with lingering fear, looked at Xuan Xin gratefully and said, "Little girl, what's your name? Thank you so much."

"You're welcome, we just met by chance, so you don't have to be so polite, auntie." Xuan Xin replied with a smile, and then stood up to leave. She didn't want to dwell on it too much, after all, she still had her own things to do.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he bumped into a pair of deep eyes. Lin Xiaofeng frowned and looked at this seemingly ordinary woman, always feeling a familiar feeling. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, as if he could see through people's hearts. Finally, his eyes fell on the dark purple bud between Xuanxin's eyebrows. The bud was looming, revealing a mysterious atmosphere. But strangely, he couldn't feel Xuanxin's spiritual fluctuations.

Before they could say anything, Lu Murongzi came up to them with a crazy look on her face, staring at the handsome Lin Xiaofeng with sparkling eyes. She looked as if she had seen her dream idol, and she didn't care about her image at all.

"Mr. Fan, we meet again." Murong Zi said excitedly, with a hint of shyness in her voice.

Xuan Xin held his forehead helplessly. Lin Xiaofeng saw Murong Zi's look, and then looked at Xuan Xin's expression, and guessed a little. He had seen Murong Zi in Jingjiang country, but she was not as crazy as she is now. He couldn't help but laugh. This woman is really changeable.

To be honest, Lin Xiaofeng and Zi Huang do look alike, and they look more and more alike. But their temperaments are completely different. Lin Xiaofeng is elegant and holy, like an immortal who fell from the sky; while Zi Huang is domineering, evil and seductive, like a poison that can lure people to death. When the two stand together, they seem to be from two different worlds.

"Ms. Lu, long time no see." Lin Xiaofeng greeted with a smile, his voice as gentle as jade.

"Miss Su... Lu?" Yun Xiao almost shouted out in excitement, and he looked at Murongzi with a complicated expression. He didn't expect to meet Murongzi here, and he didn't expect that she would be with Xuanxin.

Shen Biyao's eyes flickered, and she secretly wondered if there was any relationship between Xuanxin and Murongzi. She felt an inexplicable closeness to Xuanxin, but not to Murongzi. This feeling made her very uncomfortable, as if something was beyond her control.

Murongzi felt that the eyes of the people around her were not right, and she stepped back in fear. Although she was slow, she knew that this was not right. She smiled awkwardly, trying to cover up her gaffe.

"Everyone misunderstood, I'm not Miss Lu." Murongzi waved her hand to explain, but she felt something was wrong after saying it. She bit her lip and added, "No, I'm Miss Lu... but not the Miss Lu you're looking for." She added after secretly glancing at Xuanxin.

Xuan Xin turned her gaze to Yun Xiao, and a feeling of blood connection arose spontaneously. Needless to say, this man with extraordinary temperament was her father Yun Xiao. But Yun Xiao's eyes were too calm, as if he was looking at a stranger. Xuan Xin just nodded slightly, and wanted to turn around and leave without any expression. She knew that she could not face all this yet, and she needed time to adapt.
