Ye Yao snatched the portrait and glanced at it suspiciously, frowning: "What do you want from me?"

The soldier stammered and couldn't explain what was going on.

Ye Yao looked at the portrait again and found that the clothes and hair accessories drawn seemed to be what she wore on her first day here.

Palace...

"Is it Mu Heng?" she asked.

Upon hearing this, the soldier immediately bent down in shock and said, "Young lady, be careful with your words. You cannot address His Majesty by his name."

Ye Yao rolled her eyes: "There are so many troubles."

After saying that, she pulled Cang Jue's sleeve again.

"It seems I've gotten into a little trouble again."

Cang Jue glanced at the portrait and lowered his eyes slightly: "Who is Mu Heng?"

Ye Yao thought for a moment and replied, "He should be the emperor here. Isn't Mu Xue Ning his sister?"

Only when another name was mentioned did Cang Jue understand.

But he still lowered his eyes and said, "If you don't want to see me, you don't have to."

This is just short of saying: If you don't want to see me, go kill him.

The content of this conversation was too horrifying, and every sentence was punishable by death. The soldier was so scared that he looked up at the sky. At this moment, he just wanted to pretend that he was deaf.

Ye Yao was about to speak when a familiar but unhappy woman's voice came from behind her.

"It's you, Ye Yao. You really are restless wherever you go."

Ye Yao secretly exchanged a glance with Cang Jue, and all the soldiers guarding the city beside them knelt down as agreed.

The noble and luxurious sedan was wrapped in gauze all around, and a gem as big as a head was inlaid on the top of the sedan.

As if to show the noble status of the person in the sedan chair, in addition to the eight people carrying the sedan chair, there were no less than thirty guards and maids following neatly on both sides.

The door of the sedan chair was separated by a bead curtain. As the people carrying the sedan chair walked, the bead curtain swayed gently, and the true face of the woman in the sedan chair could be vaguely seen.

She wore a golden jade crown on her head, a peony flower painted between her eyebrows, and a luxurious palace skirt on her body. She sat with her hands on her chest. It was a beautiful painting of a noble lady traveling.

"What a grand ceremony." Ye Yao couldn't help but said with envy.

Her status as a tasker is not as important as that of the vicious female supporting role, which is a big failure in her writing career.

I looked down at the pink gauze skirt that I thought was quite girlish. As expected, cuteness is nothing compared to elegance.

A group of people stopped in front of Ye Yao and Cang Jue, and then lowered the sedan chair steadily together.

Two maids, who were also well-dressed, opened the beaded curtain for the person in the sedan chair, and a guard offered his arm for her to help her get out of the sedan chair.

Ye Yao quietly pulled Cang Jue's sleeve and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Do you think I can be more impressive than this in the future..."

Cang Jue sneered.

"I don't know."

Ye Yao curled her lips. What's wrong with being ignorant? She had only written about it and had never experienced it. It was normal for her to be envious.

"That portrait always seemed familiar to me, but I never thought it was really you."

Mu Xue Ning was supported by the guards and walked in front of her, looking at her proudly.

Then he set his gaze on Cang Jue and smiled with contempt.

"You actually gave up your engagement with Tianyu for him. I don't know if you are blind or stupid."

Cang Jue's eyes flashed and he stared at her fiercely.

Ye Yao frowned disapprovingly, and without hesitation raised her eyelids under Cang Jue's chin to look at his face seriously.

"He's quite handsome. How is he inferior to Tianyu?"

But she obviously couldn't understand how passionate a fan was about her idol.

Mu Xue Ning glanced at Cang Jue with contempt, then raised her hand and the guards beside her surrounded them.

"Since my brother has given the order, I, as his younger sister, cannot just stand by and watch. We are from the same sect, so please follow me to the palace."

Ye Yao’s eyes almost rolled up to the sky.

"I'd better not put on such a big show in the future. It makes me look too proud."

Her voice was not loud, just loud enough for everyone present to hear.

Cang Jue was originally angry, but was suddenly amused.

He turned around, took her hand and was about to rush out.

Suddenly, more soldiers surrounded them. Cang Jue was about to attack. Mu Xue Ning said coldly:

"Just do it. I know who you are hiding from. As long as you make a move, they will know your whereabouts within an hour. I want to see how you can escape."

This piqued Ye Yao's interest.

She turned around and smiled: "What good will it do you if your Senior Brother Tianyu finds me? Logically speaking, you should be happy that I ran away from marriage."

Mu Xue Ning snorted lightly, "I want him to know that choosing you over me is a wrong choice. Even if you have learned the Beast Taming Sutra, you are just a country woman on the top of the mountain. There is a huge difference between you and the royal family of this princess!"

Ye Yao took a deep breath and felt that she could not agree with her weird idea.

After looking at Cang Jue, he said lazily: "Well, I don't want to trouble you too much. Since you have invited me so kindly, we will be honored to refuse."

Cang Jue knew that she was doing it reluctantly, and a ball of black mist had already formed in his hands. With a slight release, all the soldiers would fall down.

But she couldn't let him do that.

The world itself is one of mutual checks and balances. Humans and beasts do not interfere with each other and do not compete for profit. The immortals who have achieved enlightenment are at the top.

Once the beasts break this balance first, all the so-called immortals who claim to be acting on behalf of heaven will completely destroy the beasts in the guise of gods.

After all, only beasts are scary in everyone's eyes and should not exist.

It is precisely because of this that even though Qingtian is so powerful that all ordinary sects are afraid of him, he has never thought of acting recklessly on the human race's territory.

So Ye Yao would not let Cang Jue be the exception.

She raised her hand gently and extinguished the black mist in Cang Jue's hand.

Cang Jue glanced sideways, and Ye Yao explained: "Since we don't know where to go, let's just go to the palace and walk around. When we get bored, we can slip away."

His eyes swept across Mu Xuening's face, and Cang Jue nodded slightly: "It's up to you."

The palace was even more magnificent than Ye Yao had imagined, but she had no interest in seeing it.

Since knowing that she was going to enter the palace, Mu Heng sent many palace maids to ask her what she likes and dislikes. The face of Cang Jue next to her has been changing from white to green and from green to black for a long time.

In order to protect his young heart, Ye Yao leaned close to his ear and coaxed: "He doesn't understand me at all, and doesn't even know that I like you."

Cang Jue's face flushed and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up again.

System: Favorability +10~

Ah~ So good to comfort~

"What's your favorability now?"

System: Currently 80, but the main storyline of the hero has begun to deviate. The manager will gradually bring it back on track. Please keep calm and continue to complete the task.

Yes, she almost forgot about the main plot.

In the original book, at this time Cang Jue had been controlled by Tian Yu. While other sects were killing people indiscriminately, she was driven down the mountain and lived a life of begging.

Who could have thought that I would end up in the palace accidentally.
