"I didn't expect Han Zhao to have something like a living corpse on his body. But now that I think about it, the poison that Han Zhao poisoned me with didn't seem like something that should have been done on the Savage Continent. If I hadn't consumed the Nine Transformations Poison Pill in time, I'm afraid that I would still be lying on the bed, unconscious and awake at the same time." Han Xiangtian was the first to speak.

Han Xiao couldn't help but ask after hearing Han Xiangtian talk about how he was poisoned, "Oh yeah, how did you get poisoned, Imperial Father?"

"At that time, I was infected with a type of mixed poison, which was separately placed in my room's incense and in my daily tea. Because the two poisons were colorless, tasteless, and could be absorbed without incident, I didn't notice it at all. When I found out that I was poisoned, the poison had already seeped into my lungs and it would be difficult to expel it."

"Mixed poisons." Han Xiao said with a thoughtful expression. He had always thought that mixing poison was something that would only appear in novels, but he didn't think that it would actually appear here! Furthermore, Han Xiangtian had been poisoned because of this.

"Then grandpa must be faking his death. But, what I don't understand is why grandpa doesn't want Carefree Gorge to know about your faked death." Han Xiao asked.

Seeing Han Xiao mention the matter of faking death, Xiao Ba Ya gave a bitter smile and said: "I'm not faking death, but I really nearly died."

"What grandfather? What do you mean?" Han Xiao asked in surprise.

"Don't forget the meaning of my name for the Xiao family's army, I think that Han Zhao took a fancy to this point, that's why he let the people from the Devil Shadow Sect come and get rid of me, because at that time I hadn't eaten for almost a month, and I originally didn't have the strength to eat, and the person who came to kill me was a Spirit Transformation cultivator of the Devil Shadow Sect, so I was almost killed by him. Later on, it was the emperor who rushed over and killed the person who came to save me, and saved me. Xiao Ba Ya said.

"I was wondering why grandpa would suddenly die like this, and why the Xiao family's mansion was burnt down like this. So it was just a play after all." Han Xiao nodded.

"I already betted with Yan Tian that you would definitely guess that there was some secret behind the death of the Xiao Family's Duke. Now, it seems that I won the bet." Han Xiangtian said with a faint smile.

Hearing Han Xiangtian use this matter to bet with Han Yan Tian, Han Xiao's mouth twitched. Why did he have the misconception that Han Xiangtian was very happy that things had progressed to this point?

"Father, can this sort of thing also be used as a bet?" Han Xiao said helplessly.

"It wasn't a big deal back then, but since Xiao'er has come back, then come back to the palace with me tomorrow." Han Xiangtian said.

"Return to the palace? Go back like this? " Han Xiao asked in surprise.

Of course not, the imperial palace of the Yun Ming Dynasty has been here for so many years, and there are secret passages. I left the palace through this secret passage this time, and tomorrow, you will return with me through the secret passage. As for your two friends, you can also bring them together. A trace of calculation flashed across Han Xiangtian's eyes.

Hearing Han Xiangtian say this, Han Xiao immediately understood Han Xiangtian's meaning. Xiao Ke Er was, after all, the daughter of the president of the Abyss Academy. With her status, even the sect master of the Devil Shadow Sect would not dare to rashly touch her.

"Imperial Father, Ke Er and the others are my friends. I don't want them to get into danger so easily, and I also want to investigate the people in the Devil Shadow Sect first. If possible, I can deal with some unnecessary people outside." Han Xiao said.

"You can ignore the people from Devil Shadow Sect for now. I want you to return with me to the Cloud Imperial Palace mainly to get you to come with me to the ancestral hall. I think it's time to give you some things." Han Xiangtian said.

"Royal brother, have you really decided?" Hearing that Han Xiangtian wanted to bring Han Xiao to the sect hall, Han Yan Tian's expression changed as he asked this.

"I've already made my decision. Xiao'er, if you don't want your friends to be in danger, then let them stay here for the time being. Follow me back to the Cloud Imperial Palace." Han Xiangtian said.

"But …" Han Xiao originally wanted to refuse, but after seeing Han Xiangtian's expression, he could only nod his head and say, "Okay, Royal Father will follow you back to the Cloud Imperial Palace tomorrow. As for Ke Er and the others …"

"There's Yan Tian here, you don't have to worry." Han Xiangtian said.

"Yes, then Father, I'll follow you back to the Imperial Palace tomorrow morning after I've finished talking to Ke Er and the others." Han Xiao nodded.

Seeing that the matter had been settled, Xiao Ba Ya and Han Yan Tian did not say anything more. They looked outside and saw that it was almost time for Zi to arrive, Han Xiangtian simply told Han Xiao to rest in his room for the night, while Han Yan Tian and Xiao Ba Ya also went back to their own rooms.

The next morning, Han Xiao opened his eyes before Yin could speak. He glanced at Han Xiangtian, who had been sitting cross-legged across from him, and saw that Han Xiangtian had opened his eyes the moment he moved.

"Xiao'er, since you've woken up, let's go out and eat breakfast." Han Xiangtian looked at the slightly bright sky and said.

Knowing that Han Xiangtian was in a hurry to return to the Cloud Palace, Han Xiao nodded his head, packed his things, and followed Han Xiangtian out.

Han Xiangtian's room was on a separate, two-story building, surrounded by neat rows of houses. In front of the small building were a few lightweight flower trees, and because it wasn't the season for lightweight flowers to bloom, he couldn't appreciate the beautiful scenery.

Walking along the gravel path on the left side of the building was a long corridor, through which a semicircular arch could be seen. Han Xiao felt his field of vision widen as he passed through the arch. Right in front of him was a wide lake, with an artificial small island in the middle and an octagonal pavilion on the small island.

Han Xiao could already imagine what it would be like to have two long corridors on both sides of the lake, the one on the left was a golden color, and the one on the right was a red color. Although the colors were different, it still looked very similar.

The two corridors were about fifty meters long. They converged into one corridor right in front of the lake. There was a fan-shaped archway in the place where the two corridors met. Layers of buildings could be seen through the archway.

"Royal Father, this can't be Duke Yun's Palace, right?" Han Xiao asked.

He really couldn't imagine where he was other than the King's Palace of the Cloud Battlefield.

"No, I intentionally covered this place for your mother back then, because your mother liked the flower, so I planted the flower next to the lake." No, I specifically covered this place for your mother back then, because your mother liked the flower, so I planted the flower next to this lake, and the Han Xiangtian's eyes were filled with nostalgia.

Seeing Han Xiangtian act like this, Han Xiao didn't know what to say. He had been born with Xiao Yun'er's death, so it could be said that he had indeed killed Xiao Yun'er.

After a while, Han Xiangtian came back to his senses and saw that Han Xiao was also patting Han Xiao's head, "Forget it, Yun'er has already left. This can't be changed by anyone. Xiao'er, let's go eat."

"Yes." The front courtyard had a total of twenty buildings, each of which were decorated extremely magnificently. From afar, it gave the impression that they were in the palace, but compared to Hua Mei in the front courtyard, the small building that they lived in seemed very simple and crude, so much so that it couldn't even be said that it couldn't fit onto the stage. However, it was precisely this kind of small building that couldn't get onto the stage that Han Xiangtian and Xiao Yun'er loved more. Han Xiao thought that the reason why Han Xiangtian and Xiao Yun'er loved the small building was so much was because the houses in front were too gorgeous.

Walking through the corridors, Han Xiao followed Han Xiangtian to the parlour. When they arrived, Han Xiao discovered that Xiao Ke Er and Xiao Moke were already there, and Xiao Moke was eating without a care in the world.

"Han Xiao, you're finally here." The moment Han Xiao stepped into the parlour, Xiao Ke Er saw it. She didn't care about the others as they quickly walked to Han Xiao's side and grabbed his arm.

"Ke Er, you two got up really early." Han Xiao said this with a smile. At first, he thought he had gotten up early enough, but when he saw that he was still the last one to get up, Han Xiao immediately felt as if his heart was struck by a heavy blow.

"Ah, Han Xiao, Emperor Yun Ming." Xiao Moke put down the chopsticks in his hand and stood up after seeing Han Xiangtian.

"Since you are Xiao'er's friends, there is no need to be so polite. You can all sit down and eat." With a faint smile, Han Xiangtian followed Han Xiao to the table and sat down.

After Han Xiao sat down and carefully looked at the dishes, he realized that they were his favorite dishes. He felt a warmth in his heart as he picked up the chopsticks to taste this rare delicacy.

After the meal, Han Xiao followed his agreement with Han Xiangtian and directly returned to the Cloud Imperial Palace. Although Xiao Ke and Xiao Mo unanimously requested to follow, he was stopped in the end by Han Xiao because Xiao Ke was very angry with Han Xiao.

Originally, Han Xiao wanted to disguise himself before leaving, but he was led by Han Xiangtian to a house and entered a room. Only then did Han Xiao know that there was a tunnel that led to the Cloud Imperial Palace, and Han Xiao also understood why Han Xiangtian could leave the Cloud Imperial Palace so easily.

Han Xiao saw the door that was slowly opening. He hesitated for a moment before following Han Xiangtian into the tunnel, and then stepped onto the Yun Imperial Palace that he had left for half a year.
