The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

The next day, Su Qingning and Mo Lintian went to the inn to find Xuan Shiyi, and then the three of them set off together to return to the imperial capital.

As for Xie Yichen and the other three, they entered Su Qingning's space last night and found that the concentration of spiritual energy in the space was several times higher than that of the outside world. They refused to come out and insisted on staying in the space to practice in seclusion. Su Qingning had no choice but to let them do as they pleased.

It would take at least seven or eight days to travel from Tianyun City to the capital of the Longteng Empire, no matter how fast or slow you rush; however, Su Qingning did not show any sign of anxiety, and was even in the mood to travel and enjoy the scenery.

If Suzaku had not woken up from his slumber on the third day after they set out, even with Su Qingning's leisurely pace, they would not have reached the imperial capital even if they had walked for another seven days.

Since Suzaku has awakened, Su Qingning plans to let Suzaku take her back to the imperial capital; however, there is a problem. This arrogant little bird, Suzaku, refuses to carry anyone other than Su Qingning, not even the future male owner.

Su Qingning had a headache, and helplessly, she could only let Mo Lintian and Xuan Shiyi go to her own space.

A day later, a petite figure appeared outside the imperial capital of the Longteng Empire. She slowly walked through the city gate with the crowd and stepped into the imperial capital.

At this time, it was noon, the sun was shining brightly, and the imperial capital of the Longteng Empire was as bustling as ever. A young man in a green robe walked among the bustling crowd. His ordinary face did not attract anyone's attention.

This young man was Su Qingning in disguise. She had changed into men's clothes, her jet-black hair was tied up high, and she wore a human skin mask on her face. She was the familiar freckled boy, Yun Ning.

Su Qingning walked through the crowd. She did not return to the Su family, but went to Baihua Tower.

It was daytime now and Baihua Tower was closed to visitors. Su Qingning did not go through the main entrance. Instead, she climbed over a low wall somewhere as if she was familiar with the place.

However, when she walked up to the third floor, she happened to run into Zi Yi again. However, this time Zi Yi had learned her lesson. She did not attack immediately, but looked at Su Qingning in confusion and asked, "Who are you?"

"It's me." Su Qingning didn't say any nonsense and directly said her name, "Su Qingning."

"Third Miss?!"

Zi Yi was surprised and relieved. Phew~ It’s a good thing he didn’t do anything, otherwise he would be scolded by his master again.

"Is Yuebai here?" Su Qingning asked.

"Yes, yes." Zi Yi said quickly, "The master is resting in the room."

"Yeah." Su Qingning nodded, then walked past Zi Yi, walked to the door and knocked gently.

Hearing the knock on the door, Yuebai, who was lazily lying on the couch with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes and said with his thin lips: "Come in."

"Squeak~"

The door was pushed open from the outside. Yuebai looked in the direction of the sound and saw a thin green figure walking in. The boy had freckles on his face and his appearance was ordinary, but his eyes were black and bright, as beautiful as gems.

Moreover, I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Yuebai always feels that these eyes are particularly familiar.

"Who are you?" Yuebai asked, "Who asked you to come up here?"

Su Qingning glanced at Yuebai indifferently, without answering his question, but walked straight to the chair opposite and sat down, picked up the teapot on the table beside her, and poured herself a glass of water.

Looking at the other party's arrogant and familiar actions, Yuebai couldn't help but twitching his eyes. He seemed to know who the young man in front of him was.

"Third Miss?" Yuebai called out tentatively.

Su Qingning took a sip from the teacup, then looked up at Yuebai and said in an appreciative tone, "Well, you have a good eye. You recognized it."

"Hehe~ Miss Third, you're too kind."

Yue Bai smiled awkwardly, but couldn't help rolling his eyes in his heart. How could he not recognize her? In the entire Demon Martial Continent, there was no one else besides Su Qingning who dared to be so arrogant in front of him and not take him, the master of the Dark Pavilion, seriously.

"Okay, I won't be polite with you anymore." Su Qingning put down the teacup and said, "I came to you today to ask you about the current situation of the Su family."

Yuebai had long guessed that Su Qingning came to him about the Su family's affairs, so he told her everything he knew without hiding anything.

"Five days ago, Su Huaiyang joined forces with Liu Canghai and led the Tiandao Sect in an uprising. They removed your grandfather from his position as patriarch and placed him under house arrest. The rest of the Su family tried to resist, but during the fight, they suddenly lost their spiritual power and fighting spirit, losing their ability to fight. In the end, they were all captured."

"Now, the Su family has been controlled by Su Huaiyang and Liu Canghai. These days, they have used coercion and inducement, and several elders and many Su family disciples have betrayed your grandfather and joined them."

After hearing Yuebai's words, Su Qingning's expression did not change at all, and remained indifferent, as if she was not the young master of the Su family and the affairs of the Su family had nothing to do with her.

"Miss San, aren't you angry?"

Yuebai was really curious. He didn't know what happened to Su Qingning in her previous life, so he couldn't understand why she was so calm now. After all, in his opinion, Su Qingcang was Su Qingning's grandfather, and the blood relationship between them could not be severed. As a granddaughter, she should have been worried when she learned that her grandfather was in danger!

"Angry? Why would you be angry?" Su Qingning was puzzled. She said, "The Tiandao Sect did a good thing, didn't they? I should thank them for helping me find the person with ulterior motives in the Su family and giving me the opportunity to clean up the mess."

Uh……

Yuebai was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it for a while, he understood what Su Qingning meant and felt that what she said seemed to make some sense.

"Oh, right." Su Qingning seemed to remember something and asked, "How are my mother and the others?"

"Don't worry, Miss Third, Madam and the Seventh Young Master are safe now. I have arranged for them to live in the house under my name." Yuebai replied.

"That's good." Su Qingning nodded and thanked him, "Thank you for your help this time."

Upon hearing this, Yue Bai quickly waved his hands and said, "Miss Third, you are too polite. This is what I should do."

Su Qingning nodded without saying anything. The room fell into silence. Yue Bai paused before asking, "Miss San, do you want to go see the Madam and the Seventh Young Master? I'll take you there."

Su Qingning shook her head. "No, I'll pick them up after I've settled the Su family's affairs."

Su Qingning stood up and walked out, saying, "I'm going to the Su family to check on the situation. As for my mother and Xiaoyu, I'll ask you to take care of them. Also, don't tell them I'm back. I don't want them to worry."

"Yes," Yuebai nodded, "I understand."
