Yi Zhao nodded. “I’m naturally assured regarding the things you do.”

Yi Yu smiled. “Actually, I thought you’d directly pass them to me today. I didn’t expect you to call on Yi Ran first.”

Yi Zhao lightly said, “He wouldn’t do it anyway. Passing this to you from there will arouse less suspicion.”

Yi Gong had always been suspicious. If he did this directly, he would definitely be suspicious.

This time, he and Yi Ran rejected it themselves, so it was fine.

“Yi Ran has always been smart. It’s a pity that he got played in his own game.” Elder Yi Yu’s smile turned lighter, and he shook his head.

At this point, how would he still be as impulsive and happy as usual? He clearly was also an old fox that thought too much!

“A certain mentor would naturally have a similar disciple.” Yi Zhao had long known what kind of people they were, so he naturally knew what methods were the most effective to deal with them.

Elder Yi Yu lowered his head slightly. “You’ve always let nature take its course. Actually, everything today was under your control.”

Yi Zhao raised his hand. “No. I didn’t think of leaving that Shangguan Yue behind at the very start.”

That was because he really didn’t expect this woman to be so gangster-ish!

“Additionally, Tuan Zi’s bloodline… is much better than what I expected.” When Yi Zhao spoke of this, satisfaction surfaced on his face. “At least you didn’t waste your efforts.”

When he initially learned that a red-gold heavenly phoenix appeared in Ling Xiao Academy, he didn’t pay much attention to it. But when he knew that it had made an agreement with a human, he wanted to call it back as soon as possible.

But after hearing about these things, he faintly figured that this red-gold heavenly phoenix was rather different.

As expected today!

Elder Yi Yu smiled. “Right? The purest bloodline hasn’t appeared in our clan for a very long time. It really came in time for us…”

“It’s a pity that it’s still too young.”

Yi Zhao shook his head. “If it can’t take human form, it can’t join the ancestral ceremony.”

Elder Yi Yu was shocked, and he raised his head suddenly. “You want it to participate in this ancestral ceremony?”

With Tuan Zi’s age, I thought that the clan leader would wait for the next time…

Suddenly, something flashed across his mind. “T-this is the reason why you agreed to Shangguan Yue?”

Yi Zhao turned around and gazed at the mural. “Since she has the guts to accept this bet, I want to see if she has the ability!”

…

The Sky-Cloud Empire.

Over many nights, Rong Xiu swiftly rushed back to the Sky-Cloud Empire without stopping.

The moment he stepped into the barrier, Yan Qing and the rest were waiting for him.

Seeing Rong Xiu, Yan Qing immediately brought them over and bowed. “Greetings, Your Highness!”

Rong Xiu raised his hand, gesturing for them to be at ease.

As he rushed toward Suming Peak, he asked, “How has the Sky-Cloud Empire been recently?”

Yan Qing looked solemn and followed. “Master, all the venerables and the 13 heads of the 28 divisions have now gathered in Tongshen Palace. 36 Respected Elder Ming is controlling the place, but… the situation is not optimistic.”

Rong Xiu squinted his phoenix-like eyes, and his thin lips curled up at an ice-cold angle. He seemed to be smiling, but the smile didn’t reach the corner of his eyes.

“They came rather quickly. The last time the Sky-Cloud Empire was this crowded, it was on the day of my ascension.”

That happened quite a few years ago.

And this time, Baili Chun was unconscious, so these people really couldn’t sit still anymore.

The moment he received the news at Ling Xiao Academy, he immediately rushed back. And these people actually acted faster than him.

“How’s the clan leader now?” asked Rong Xiu.

Yan Qing’s expression was solemn. “Jishen Palace.”

After it happened, he knew that something was amiss. Hence, he swiftly brought people to Jishen Palace and set up many guards to strictly control it.

He was afraid that someone would play a trick.

Rong Xiu lightly nodded. “You did well.”

As long as the person was still in their hands, the matter would be much easier to solve.

Then, Rong Xiu’s figure flashed and rushed to Suming Peak at even greater speeds.

…

Within the magnificent and solemn Tongshen Palace, the atmosphere was cold.

The venerables of the Sky-Cloud Empire sat on both sides.

The family heads of the 28 divisions sat in slightly lower positions.

These dozens of people could be considered to be the ones with the highest status in the Sky-Cloud Empire. At this point, they had almost all gathered here, and they clearly came for Baili Chun.

Respected Elder Yu Jing finally couldn’t hold himself back in this silent atmosphere and broke the silence first. “It’s been so long, and His Grace hasn’t come back yet. Did something delay him on the way?”

36 Respected Elder Ming sipped on a mouthful of tea and lightly said, “Ling Xiao Academy is originally far from the Sky-Cloud Empire, so he naturally can’t be like everyone and rush over in the blink of an eye once you get the news.”

Some people’s expressions changed slightly.

Respected Elder Yu Jing laughed. “You’re right. The journey is far to come back from there. Besides, Ling Xiao Academy has suffered a series of troubles recently. It’s normal for His Grace to be delayed, especially… when our new princess consort is also there!”

This sentence sounded fine, but everyone present was smart. How could they not hear the mockery?

“Speaking of the princess consort, she’s amazing. We all thought that she was still in Jishen Palace the entire time. Who knew that she would secretly change her appearance and go to Ling Xiao Academy? Her reputation has been pretty loud recently!”

At the side, Respected Elder Tong Chuan laughed and lightly said, “This princess consort is very capable. No wonder His Grace likes her.”

At this point, a cold and low voice suddenly came from outside the hall. “Of course, my princess consort is peerless.”
