But Xuanji sent someone to speak at the front of the queue. The man quickly and respectfully allowed their carriages to enter first. "Who's that person? Why is he cutting the queue?" "How obnoxious! We're hurrying to the auction! Guards, don't you want silver? Come over here. I will give you 100 taels. Let us proceed first!" One of them, a wealthy, overbearing man, said loudly. "Hoho, don't be angry, sir. Those are eminent visitors!" The guard replied respectfully. His status was not high and he could not afford to offend anyone. "What? Eminent visitors? Humph, who is it? Is it the Eighth Palace Leader?" "Impossible. The Eighth Palace Leader, I heard, has been killed!" Hua Qiyue felt quite helpless in the carriage. Once the rumors started to fly, there would be many versions. "Yes. Haha, I heard that Hua Qiyue was a female ruffian. She slew that Palace Leader

Hua Qiyue swept her cursory, indifferent eyes at the suddenly appearing Yun Shimo. At this moment, Tianci's shrill screams drew Ji Feng, Xuanji and the rest over. Even the hare appeared. While searching for Tianci, the hare had not been with Hua Qiyue. It went alone in another direction instead. "Tianci..." "We've found Tianci!" Ji Jing and the others remarked jubilantly. But the moment they set their eyes on Yun Shimo opposite them, they all quietened down. They had not seen him for over a year. Yun Shimo looked the same as before, but his eyes looking even more cold and solemn. Hua Qiyue hugged Tianci tightly, staring at the man coldly. Although they used to be lovers, they were like great enemies at this meeting. They were no longer the affectionate couple of the past. Hua Qiyue coldly lifted the corner of her lips. Tianci stared at Yun Shimo, and then at Hua Qiyue. "Mom, could you..

Tianci nodded. Although he could not understand Hua Qiyue's concerns. But he would not reject anything his mom would want him to do. Princess Qianyang brought the company tea to sober them up from wine. But Ji Jing sneered, "We don’t dare to drink your tea. Perhaps you have laced it with poison?" After all, Princess Qianyang and Yun Shimo were now a married couple. Ji Jing felt deeply aggrieved on Hua Qiyue's behalf. Her attitude toward Princess Qianyang had not improved. Princess Qianyang gave an awkward smile. "No, Jing, if you don't believe me, I will take a cup first." She poured herself a cup of tea and drank it. "Jing, you're talking nonsense again. Although Princess Qianyang has married Brother Yun, causing you to feel it unfair, she's not a wicked person. Why would she poison us?" Ji Feng said quietly. He led the company and walked over. Princess Qianyang felt deeply grateful for his kind words. She did not expect Ji Fe

Hua Qiyue glanced calmly at Tianci. She had long been accustomed to such embarrassing questions from him. "Nothing. I went to the restroom," Hua Qiyue said quietly. The gazes of the company became instantly quite peculiar and complex. Yun Shimo would not say why his face was swollen, but everyone could guess. If it were not Hua Qiyue, who else could touch Yun Shimo? Other than Yun Xuan, there was also the mysterious Xuanji. Other than them, no one else could be a match for Yun Shimo! But Xuanji and Hua Qiyue's relationship was not that special. He did not seem to adore Hua Qiyue and would not act for her. After counting them out, it must have been Hua Qiyue herself. "Come, come, let's have breakfast. Porridge will not taste good when gets cold!" Madame Yun aptly interrupted this awkward moment. Everyone recovered from their musings. Yun Shimo took over a bowl of porridge and went over t

The Man-Hunting Insect heard her, and a green glow started to gleam brightly in its eyes. Although it was only an insect, it had heard much about Hua Qiyue's deeds. When she fought the Gnawing Devils Sect, it could not yet talk, but it could understand human speech. Hua Qiyue led and was an important personage of the alliance. If she said she would get her green jade back, she would! On the seventh night, when everyone was asleep, Hua Qiyue watched Tianci sleep for a few moments and gently kissed his forehead. Then, she tiptoed out of the room. Under the guidance of the Man-Hunting Insect, Hua Qiyue traversed the woods to reach the entrance to Yun Shimo's cave. "Is he really inside?" "Yes. So is Princess Qianyang. Later, I can render her unconscious when she comes out. Madame Yun and Yun Xuan are in the innermost depths of the cave. They usually don't interfere in Yun Shimo's life. You can do anything you like. Th
