Something small happened, at least for Shangguan Wan, and that was Qin Fei's return to the palace.

No one knew where he had been during this period of time. They only knew that when he returned, his expression was even uglier than when he left.

She must have suffered some setback, Shangguan Wan thought.

Some people really could not think of this.

"As soon as the Imperial Advisor returned to the palace, he immediately ran over to my Phoenix Return Temple. I was truly flattered."

Qin Fei glanced at the waiting court ladies. Shangguan Wan understood immediately and waved them off.

It seemed that the words of the Imperial Advisor could only be spoken to him in private.

As expected, "The empress is the head of the imperial palace and doesn't even know how to restrain her subordinates. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?"

Shangguan Wan was confused, "I don't really understand what the State Grandmaster is talking about." She thought he was here to interrogate her, but she didn't know what she was doing or what she was doing.

Qin Fei laughed coldly, "Empress, don't pretend to be ignorant."

"What a coincidence. I was born dull. Please explain yourself, Imperial Advisor." Shangguan Wan's tone was playful. Although she was a fox spirit, she was still a queen. He would not even bow when he saw her. It was obvious that she did not place her in her eyes.

"I heard that the eunuchs in the empress dowager's palace were ill-mannered, daring to disrespect His Highness, the princess. I believe the empress has heard of this as well."

Shangguan Wan was stunned for a moment. This was the reason he had come this time? Hehe, it seems that his feelings for Qi He are not simple.

"I've heard of it, but there might have been some misunderstandings regarding this matter. Rather than saying 'Luo Chen is frivolous,' it's more about 'Qi and luring him'. Luo Chen's true identity must be clear to you. He has long since abandoned his emotions and desires. How could he take the initiative to commit such a heinous act?" Shangguan Wan was methodical. Luo Chen was not Qin Fei's match, so she tried her best to clear up the relationship between them.

Young Daoist, take a look. For the sake of you, I dare to offend even the Imperial Advisor.

However, the little Daoist would not know that he had put in so much effort.

"Alright, even if that's the case, he beat Qi He up. Everyone saw it with their own eyes. What can the Empress say?" When he returned to the palace and heard of this matter, he immediately went to the Phoenix Return Hall to demand an explanation. His disciple was not someone anyone could bully.

"This …" Shangguan Wan, on the other hand, didn't know how to reply. 'That Luo Chen, how could he beat up Qi He when a gentleman doesn't even speak his mouth to make a move.' Shangguan Wan, on the other hand, didn't know how to respond.

However, things didn't get out of hand in the end because Wei He must have told him about it. Otherwise, with such actions, Luo Chen's head would have fallen off ten times.

He still had to accept a master like himself for this mess.

"Since the empress has nothing to say, why don't you hand him over to this humble official? This humble subject is Qi He's master after all. It wouldn't be too much to collect debts for her." At this time, Qin Fei was still reasonable. As long as this fox spirit agreed, he wouldn't argue with her and let her be an outsider.

Shangguan Wan stood up and walked down, "Imperial Advisor, have you ever thought that if you were to punish Luochen, everyone in the world would know that Wei He was involved with a eunuch? That would be detrimental to his reputation."

Shangguan Wan was not an idiot, things like this could only be done in small ways, or else both she and Qi She would be embarrassed.

He believed that Qin Fei was aware of the severity of this matter. However, he did not want Qi He to continue entangling Luo Chen, so he came here to collect the debt.

"The empress really does know how to steal dragons and turn phoenixes. This humble official isn't from the justice courts, so it's unlikely that the world would know about the punishment of an eunuch."

Today was a rare occasion, even though they were arguing, the Imperial Advisor and the empress had talked a little too much.

"Even Qi Wei didn't care about this client of his. For the Imperial Advisor to come running over to me to denounce me, isn't he too idle?" To put it harshly, it was just asking for trouble. However, it was clear that saying so would only deepen the contradiction.

Qin Fei was unwilling to be outdone. "The empress is defending a eunuch with so much effort. What are your intentions?"

"You!" Shangguan Wan was so angry that she vomited blood. What did she and Luo Chen count as? Enemy or friend? Although he called him an enemy, he didn't seem as willing to take her in as she appeared on the surface. If she called her a friend, would that proud and aloof little Daoist be willing to admit it?

In any case, their relationship was awkward.

But she just had one thought: Protect the little Taoist.

Luo Chen did not have a bad heart. He kept hurting Qi He, but because of his special status, he couldn't blame them. Without the rules, how could he go against the rules of Mount Shu?

It was truly a wonder that the Fey and the Taoist loved each other.

There was no use in arguing. It would be better to fight.

Shangguan Wan knew that she was no match for him, but she couldn't bear to see him act so arrogantly, so she braced herself and went to the 'battlefield'.

No matter what, although it was stupid to use an egg to hit a rock, at times, a fox spirit did need to be a bit stubborn in order to live a full life.

Luo Chen had been cleaning in the side hall when he suddenly felt the power of the battle. He hastily put down what he was doing and rushed to the main hall.

The vixen is in danger, it must be.

Why do you care so much about fox spirits? It was the same last time. He really hated himself.

Indeed, the one who was having a good fight with the fox spirit was Qin Fei, the mysterious Imperial Advisor.

The reason why he was called mysterious was because of what he had said to him in the past.

Even now, he still could not understand what was Qin Fei's true identity. How could he know so much about Mount Shu?

Luo Chen didn't even think before joining Shangguan Wan to deal with him.

"You came at the right time!" Qin Fei's expression became abnormally terrifying, as if he wanted to tear Luo Chen into a thousand pieces.

It was hard to imagine that the usually indifferent man would show such an expression only because his disciple had been bullied.

"What are you doing here? Don't cause trouble for this Demon! " Shangguan Wan shouted at Luo Chen. Was he here to die? Although his actions were tantamount to courting death, it was not enough for Qin Fei to kill him. After all, she was the empress. If the empress were to die, it would shock the entire country.

Right, he didn't have that much guts to believe Qin Fei.

But she still underestimated him. His moves were deadly, and there were several times when Shangguan Wan almost died in his hands.

"You fox spirit, don't bite off Lu Dongbin. You don't recognize the kindness of others!" In such a critical moment, the little Daoist did not forget to say something.

Luo Chen did not come here to add to the chaos. As the saying goes, "three days is three days is three days." His abilities had improved a lot and helped Shangguan Wan a lot.

However, the end of the matter was not exactly satisfactory. Shangguan Wan was seriously injured and Luo Chen fell on the ground unconscious.

When Qin Fei was about to destroy their primordial spirits, someone rushed over …
