Digging up spiritual roots and seizing blood? You scumbags, wait and tremble.

"Again, let King Cheng take the lead first, and we'll watch for a while."

Liu Sicong said softly, "We can't let her continue to stand on Prince Ning's side."

Prince Ning is already powerful enough, and if Zhong Ran is added to the mix, it will be extremely disadvantageous to them.

Prime Minister Liu was silent for a long time before he said, "Then what should we do?"

Liu Sicong said softly: "Let my grandson handle this matter."

"Cong'er, no, that woman is a little weird, don't get yourself involved."

"Don't worry, Grandfather. I know what to do."

Liu Sicong stood up and said, "Grandfather, please think about whether Prince Yan's arm can be restored."

He sighed softly, turned around and walked outside.

……

The emperor leaned back in the large dragon throne and did not speak for a long time.

He also heard about what was happening outside, and for a moment he felt complicated and indescribable.

At this time, a secret guard appeared from the shadows and said softly, "Your Majesty, that person appeared at the auction at Xianhe Tower and bought a Peiyuan Pill at a high price."

The emperor looked at him suddenly, and after a while he said calmly: "Is she out of confinement? Ask her to come over and tell her that Ranran is back."

The man didn't say anything, but just left.

After a while, a pretty figure appeared silently and sat casually in the chair.

"Are you looking for me?"

The emperor looked at her. After not seeing her for many years, the woman was still as young and pretty as before, not much different from before.

If there is any difference, it is that the aura on her body is much stronger.

"Ran Ran is back, shouldn't you go see her?"

Yu Su narrowed her eyes slightly, but quickly relaxed them, a smile on her face: "Really? The young lady is back? When did it happen? Why didn't you send someone to tell me?"

"You've been in seclusion before and didn't want anyone to disturb you."

The emperor's voice was calm: "The siblings are in a bad situation, and only you can protect them."

"How did you, the emperor, do this? You couldn't even protect two children? No wonder the young lady looked down on you back then."

"You..." The emperor pointed at her angrily, his hands trembling slightly.

"Hmph! If you can't protect me, I will naturally protect you. You don't have to worry about it."

A strange look flashed in her eyes, and she stood up and walked outside.

After she left, the emperor swept all the memorials to the ground.

Eunuch Gui sighed secretly and cleaned up silently.

They are all masters who cannot be offended.

After Zhong Ran came back from outside, she asked the servants to bring her hot water for a bath.

Although cultivators don't get very dirty, she still felt uncomfortable all over after not taking a bath for more than ten days.

Soaking in the hot water, she closed her eyes and thought about how to proceed.

Leaving is inevitable, but when to leave and where to go after leaving have become issues they have to think about.

They are completely unfamiliar with this continent.

It seems that she needs to find a way to get a map and study it carefully to find out where she has the best chance of leaving this continent.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes, and a sharp look flashed in them.

"Who? Come out!"

At the same time, she quickly got up from the water, put on a piece of clothing, and looked coldly towards the door.

Yusu walked in from outside, glanced at her, lowered her head and said: "Your servant Yusu greets the young lady."

Zhong Ran narrowed her eyes and looked at her. This woman gave her a very dangerous feeling.

The soul power swept towards her, similar to the strength of the early stage of foundation building, but different.

If I'm not mistaken, it should be the strong man in the palace.

"Who are you? What do you want from me?"

She put on her clothes and looked at Yusu warily.

"I am the Madam's personal maid, my name is Yusu, and I am here to take care of the young lady and the young master."

Zhong Ran slowly walked to the table and sat down, observing her expression with his soul power.

"Madam? Are you talking about my mother?"

"Exactly!"

"Since you are my mother's close friend, why didn't you protect me and my brother for the past ten years and let us be bullied?"

Yu Su said softly, "It's not that I'm unwilling to take care of the young lady and the young master, but things were complicated back then, and I couldn't let anyone know of your existence. I could only let you fend for yourself."

"Oh? Then why do you show up now?"

"More than ten years have passed, and those who were watching have long since left."

"Those people? Staring? Who are they staring at? Who are they?"

"Young lady, it's better for you not to know those things."

Zhong Ran stared at her closely: "Who is my biological father?"

Yu Su was stunned, obviously not expecting her to ask such a sensitive question, and did not answer for a while.

After a long silence, he said, "Young lady, it will do you no good to know this now."

"Go away." Zhong Ran didn't trust this woman at all, even though she said she was the personal maid of the original owner's mother, she still couldn't trust her.

An instinctive rejection.

"Young lady, since you have returned, I will stay by your side from now on. Don't worry, with me protecting you, you won't be afraid to walk around in Tianmu Country."

Zhong Ran became interested and pointed at the chair opposite him: "Walking sideways? But I accidentally cut off the arm of the King of Yan some time ago. The Prime Minister and the Queen both wished I were dead."

"Then tell me, what should I do?"

Yu Su exuded a powerful aura and said in a cold voice, "They are just the Prime Minister and Queen of a country. If they dare to go against the young lady, then let them die without a burial place."

Zhong Ran said quietly, "But they are outnumbered, I can't defeat them."

Yu Su didn't know what was happening outside, otherwise she wouldn't have believed Zhong Ran's nonsense.

"Don't worry, young lady. Just leave it to me."

"In that case, I'll leave it to you."

Zhong Ran said calmly, "By the way, since you want to stay with me, then just stay outside from now on. I don't like those people from the Marquis' Mansion disturbing me."

Yu Su's expression froze for a moment, then she readily agreed, turned around and walked out, and indeed stood outside the door guarding it.

Zhong Ran had been paying attention to her with his soul power, so he noticed her subtle expression.

She frowned slightly, then quickly relaxed.

Her current strength is indeed not enough to match her, so she will keep her by her side for now and see what she is up to.

She had a hunch that this woman couldn't be trusted.

Or rather, because of her tragic death in her previous life, she is now suspicious of everyone except her eldest brother and younger brother.

"Yusu, help me take the water out and pour it out. I need to rest."

She said lightly, stood up and walked back to the bed, lying down to rest.

Yusu's hand in her sleeve tightened slightly, then quickly loosened. She responded softly, pushed the door open, went in, took the water out and poured it out.

Then she stood by the door again, with her brows lowered and eyes cast down, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Zhong Ran didn't care what she was thinking and went to sleep directly, but asked Xiao Ding to help her keep an eye on the woman.

After being outside for ten days or so, even though my cultivation has improved, it won’t be affected even if I don’t sleep.

But her body and mind will still be tired. She has not yet established a foundation and cannot practice true fasting.

There is a strong man guarding outside the door, so she can't sleep peacefully. It would be best to let Xiao Ding keep an eye on her.
