The man whose hair was grabbed by Zeng Wenyu shrank his neck. At the same time, a pulling pain was transmitted to his scalp from the top of his head, causing a painful expression on his face.

"Um... Senior, I am just a small cultivator. How could I have any bad intentions?"

"Hahaha..." Zeng Wenyu sneered a few times. He suddenly inserted his left hand into the snow and pinched the cultivator's right hand. "You don't really think I don't know what this snow is like? Snow that can block spiritual energy, how can a small cultivator resist it? Moreover, you have been moving forward under the snow, and the spiritual energy in your body should have been consumed a long time ago. How could you still be practicing magic under the snow?"

The monk whose right hand was grabbed turned pale: "Senior, I was just kidding you! I am really a young cultivator of the human race. The seal I just made was just... just a spell to prevent my body from becoming unstable in such cold weather."

"Are you still not telling the truth? This snow that blocks spiritual energy will only block the human cultivators' sensitivity to spiritual energy. It is of no use to any race other than the human race. Moreover, the one who arranged this snowfall is at least a cultivator in the late stage of the Tribulation Realm. Any human who practices Qi Refining will be affected by this snowflake. And the fact that you can perform the magic formula proves that you are not a human!"

The monk's face turned even paler when he heard Zeng Wenyu's words. His body began to tremble and he began to shrink back. If Zeng Wenyu had not still grabbed his hair with his right hand, he would have escaped long ago. However, the hair on his head had grown with great difficulty. If Zeng Wenyu really tore off a large piece of his hair because of his escape, it would not only be a matter of his scalp being torn and bleeding.

Zeng Wenyu also saw that the monk in front of him valued his hair very much, so he gently raised his right hand upwards. The monk immediately reacted and said quickly: "Senior! I am a rabbit-rat spirit! As you know, rabbit-rat spirits are good at digging holes, and the snow above is slippery and difficult to walk on..."

"Rabbit-rat spirit?" Zeng Wenyu looked at the cultivator in front of him. He couldn't figure out what the relationship was between this cultivator and the rabbit-rat.

"Yes, senior! Please wait a moment, senior."

The monk looked around and saw that there was no one around. He raised his left hand and pinched his nose to exhale. Then he shook his head gently a few times. The human ears turned into two furry ears standing up. At the same time, his mouth turned into three lips, and two rabbit teeth protruded from the upper lip.

"I can see the rabbit's appearance, but the rat..."

Before Zeng Wenyu finished speaking, a long, thin tail appeared from under the snow. It really looked like a mouse's tail, and the tip of the tail was still shaking.

"Senior...you see...I really am a rabbit-rat spirit."

"Okay, I recognize you as the Rabbit Rat Spirit," the Rabbit Rat Spirit heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what Zeng Wenyu said. However, before he could relax, Zeng Wenyu continued, "Your identity can be proven, but what is your purpose in coming here? Why did you run straight to that tent? What is your purpose?"

The Rabbit Rat Spirit was silent for a while before speaking: "Senior, I am here to look for someone, but as for who I am looking for... I cannot tell you..."

He stared at the rabbit-rat spirit for a long time, and the rabbit-rat spirit's eyes kept dodging, but he refused to say who he was looking for.

There were only Mu Zhi and Princess Xianglan in that tent. If the target of the rabbit-rat spirit was really that tent, then Zeng Wenyu could only think of one possibility. The rabbit-rat spirit was looking for Princess Xianglan. As for Mu Zhi? Mu Zhi had just been released from the cage not long ago. She knew only a few people. If she was sent by Mu Qiao, she would not sneak into the tent secretly.

Pulling the rabbit-rat demon out of the snow, he asked, "Are you here to look for Princess Xianglan?"

"No! I don't even know any Princess Xianglan!"

"..."

Looking at the excited rabbit-rat spirit in front of him, Zeng Wenyu was particularly speechless. If he was not so excited, Zeng Wenyu might really have a chance of believing him. However, the way the rabbit-rat spirit in front of him concealed his feelings was too obvious, and Zeng Wenyu didn't believe him at all.

He took out a rope from his storage ring, tied up the rabbit-rat spirit with it and held it in his hand. Zeng Wenyu walked to the tent of Mu Zhi and Princess Xiang Lan and said, "Sister Mu Zhi! Sister Mu Zhi! Please call Princess Xiang Lan."

Soon there was movement in the tent, and not long after, Princess Xianglan and Mu Zhi both walked out of the tent.

There was not much expression on Mu Zhi's face, but Princess Xianglan's face was a little bit dazed as if she had not woken up yet. It seemed that she had just been woken up by Mu Zhi.

"What's wrong, brother? Who is this rabbit-rat monster you caught?"

After Mu Zhi finished speaking, Princess Xianglan saw the cultivator in Zeng Wenyu's hand: "Rabbit Rat Spirit?"

The moment he saw Princess Xianglan, the rabbit-rat demon suddenly struggled, his whole body swaying in Zeng Wenyu's hands: "Princess Master! Princess Master! It's me! I'm Sniff!"

“Xiu Xiu?” Princess Xianglan looked at the monk in front of her in surprise. The monk suddenly became smaller in the eyes of the three people. A rabbit rat the size of a palm fell on the snow and ran towards Princess Xianglan. Princess Xianglan squatted down and looked at the rabbit rat, holding it in her palm. “It’s really Xiu Xiu! Xiu Xiu, how did you escape from the imperial city?”

"Wow... Master, I miss you so much!" Rabbit Rat rubbed his head against Princess Xianglan's fingers. "Back then, I saw with my own eyes that you were cursed and turned into a black dragon. I knew you were not dead. I have been looking for you all these years, and finally found you today!"

"Princess Xianglan, is this really your pet? Are you sure?"

"Well, it was my pet when I was in the palace. I would take it with me wherever I went. I thought it was dead when I was killed, but I didn't expect it to survive."

"Master, Master! I know who cursed you! I heard it all when the master was holding a funeral for your body! It was the Third Prince who did it! He wanted to frame the Crown Prince. The curse in your body was cast on you by a man in a black robe beside the Third Prince!"

"It was my third brother?" Princess Xianglan had never thought that she would know who attacked her back then, and it was the third prince who did it, which was beyond her expectation. "How could it be my third brother? My third brother dotes on me so much, how could he attack me?"

"Master! What Xiu Xiu said is absolutely true. Xiu Xiu saw it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears. The Third Prince and the man in black robe said that they wanted to weaken the power in the hands of the Crown Prince little by little. This would make it easier for the Third Prince to control the entire New Kingdom."
