After dinner, Shangguan Wan went out to find the salted tree, not letting anyone follow her.

She had verified all the wood in the vicinity of the Hall of Return of the Phoenix. Now, she had to continue searching elsewhere.

Ai, I really don't know which damned person built this palace so big.

The sun faded and the jade toad gradually appeared.

Shangguan Wan seriously 'drew blood', the pain in her right palm was faint.

She knew it was like looking for a needle in a haystack, but there was no other way.

Perhaps, there was no such thing as salted wood in the world. Perhaps, even if there was, it was not in the Palace of Xuanding.

But, didn't people live with a glimmer of hope? So did the demons.

As the night descended, the sky was filled with stars. The bright moonlight scattered across the ground like a layer of white frost.

Unknowingly, she had been searching for four hours when she heard the sound of knocking not too far away.

"Time to go back." She murmured softly and turned to walk, but she bumped into someone.

After entering the palace for the past few days, she had not encountered anything worth being happy about. Today, however, she was very lucky to have come to visit an old friend.

This old friend's name was Rong Xiu, and they grew up together.

The person who had told her about the incident with the Aral Dawn Wood was him.

"Luoluo, are you okay?" He transformed into a humanoid cultivator with delicate and handsome features. He had a gentle, refined, and modest appearance.

Luoluo was the nickname he had given to her when he was a child. He had originally thought that when he grew up he would change his name, but he had no idea that he had long since gotten used to it.

"Very good!" In front of him, she could temporarily return to the world.

"Oh yes, how is sister? Is she well? You should persuade her to go out and get more sun. " Because of the birthmark on her face, her elder sister, Yun You, rarely went out to see people. Over the past few hundred years, the number of times she had come out of the fox cave could be counted on one hand.

"She's fine. She asked me to come and see you, worried that something might have happened to you."

Actually, he was worried about her as well. He had always been worried about her.

He had once regretted telling her that there was such a thing as the Salt Spring Wood in this world. He knew that she would not hesitate to help him find it. The affection between the two sisters was truly unfathomable.

In the past three hundred years, she had never left Qing Qiu. To her, this trip to Mystic Rest was an extremely big challenge.

He could not bear to see her suffer, but there was nothing he could do.

Yun Luolang smiled, her round eyes were even clearer under the moonlight. "Rest assured, you can help me tell my sister, I'm really good."

Rong Xiu noticed the bandages on her hands. His gentle smile disappeared from his cheeks. How could she be okay if he used his blood to find the Arrowhead tree?

Just as she was about to open her mouth to say something, she heard someone not far away berate her: "Shangguan Wan!"

Yun Luo looked back, only to see Nangong Yu furiously rushing over, his steps trembling with rage.

Rong Xiu left tactfully. How could he stay and cause trouble for her?

In the blink of an eye, Nangong Yu appeared in front of her. He had an exceptionally ferocious expression on his handsome face, and the aura around his was extremely cold, so cold that it seemed as if it would freeze one's heart.

She immediately regained her identity and bowed to him, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

All of his originally good mood vanished into thin air because of his arrival. It had to be said that he truly was a person who had ruined his mood.

Nangong Yu stood with his hands behind his back. Under the moonlight, his eyes were extremely evil and his voice was cold and serious: "Shangguan Wan! How dare you! "He actually tried to steal people from us!"

Ridiculous! This was simply absurd to the extreme! No matter what, she was still the mother of a nation. Even though he did not want to admit this fact, he could not put on a green hat because this would only embarrass him!

"I didn't." Shangguan Wan's answer was very calm. Against him, speaking loudly might not win, because he didn't even know how to listen, so she didn't bother to explain.

"Do you think I'm blind?" This damnable woman was challenging his limits yet again.

Shangguan Wan met his eyes, she was neither humble nor haughty as she said: "Still, I hope the emperor will not just look at the surface."

It was laughable to say that even though the emperor was an enlightened ruler with a pair of discerning eyes, but he was not a very competent emperor and would always be puzzled by appearances.

"Are you using what happened last time to refute me?" Nangong Yu sneered. It was true that he was the one who had been confused when the empress dowager's illness occurred, but this time it was different. He had truly seen her chat with a man, and when he rushed over, that man had already disappeared.

"Your majesty, I'm tired." With that, Shangguan Wan started to leave.

Nangong Yu stared at her back, stunned for a moment. "What?" He did something bad and left just like that? As if nothing had happened? This was indeed his style.

But then again, why was she so angry? In any case, she might not be the real princess, which meant that she was not even his wife in name. What in the world was she supposed to be if she was so angry?

When the emperor returned to the palace, he found it difficult to sleep.

How could he, who had never experienced anything like this before, know what it was like to be jealous?
