After hearing this, Xiao Se's expression instantly grew heavy. He closed his eyes slightly and began to seriously consider the possibility of this matter. His mind surged like a tidal wave, with various clues and details constantly intertwined. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Mo Luyi said was not without reason.

Finally, Xiao Se slowly opened his eyes, his gaze firm and profound. He bowed deeply to Mo Luyi and Zhao Yuzhen and said respectfully, "Thank you for your guidance, Senior Mo, Senior Xuan Jianxian, this matter is of grave importance. I have important matters to attend to, so I cannot remain for long. I will take my leave now." With that, Xiao Se turned and left, his figure gradually fading away, disappearing from their sight.

When Xiao Se gradually walked away until his figure disappeared, Mo Luyi slowly turned her head, her beautiful eyes fixed on Zhao Yuzhen beside her, and she said softly, "I've been thinking about something. I wonder if I should go to Tianqi City and eliminate those eunuchs who are committing evil and causing chaos to the people. But then I thought, these are ultimately disputes within the royal family. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to let them deal with them on their own. I just don't want the people to be plunged into war again."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuzhen tenderly extended her right hand and gently grasped Mo Luyi's delicate, boneless hand. She whispered, "They have their own destiny and paths of experience to walk, and there's no need for us to interfere. Besides, their injuries have healed now. As for who will ultimately take the supreme position, it will surely be a good outcome for either of them. However, if that happens in the future, it won't be too late for us to intervene. For now, you should consider carefully when you're ready to marry me."

Mo Luyi blushed slightly upon hearing this. She gave Zhao Yuzhen a coquettish look and whispered, "Hmph, that's wishful thinking! Even if I'm willing to marry you, I'll have to get past my brother."

Zhao Yuzhen looked puzzled and asked, "Brother?"

Mo Luyi blinked and said with her red lips, "Didn't I tell you?" As she spoke, her eyes fell on Zhao Yuzhen's face full of doubts, and a feeling of guilt surged in her heart.

She lowered her head slightly, fiddling with the skirt in her hands, and continued in a soft voice: "My brother is on Penglai Island. He is the guardian of the East Territory! So, if we want to get married, why don't we go to Penglai to hold the wedding? The scenery there is picturesque, like a fairyland." At this point, Mo Luyi raised her head, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks, and her beautiful eyes looked at Zhao Yuzhen affectionately, as if expecting his response.

Zhao Yuzhen's eyes flickered with surprise when she heard Mo Luyi's suggestion. "Penglai Island? The legendary Penglai Island? That would be fantastic. I just wonder what your brother's personality is like?" He looked at her nervously.

Mo Luyi smiled cunningly, "As for my brother...as long as you treat me sincerely, I believe he will agree." At most, we can stay there more often to accompany her in the future.

Zhao Yuzhen breathed a sigh of relief, gently squeezed Mo Luyi's hand, then raised his hand and swore, "I swear that the heaven and earth can bear witness to my feelings for you..."

Mo Luyi put her hand over his mouth and said, "No need to swear. Actions count, not intentions. As long as you do it, that's all."

......

Here, Xiao Chong met Ye Ruoyi. Ye Ruoyi originally wanted to pretend not to see and just walk past, but she didn't expect Xiao Chong to see her now. So when she just walked in front of him, Xiao Chong said, "Miss Ruoyi."

Ye Ruoyi paused, then bowed and said, "It's been a long time since we last met, Your Highness the Second Prince."

Xiao Chong: "If I hadn't smelled the unique fragrance of the Ye family's Shenguang Yougu, and hadn't recognized Miss Ruoyi, would Miss Ruoyi have just walked away like that?"

Ye Ruoyi smiled and replied, "I haven't seen Your Highness for many years. I just felt that your face was familiar, but I didn't dare to recognize you."

......

However, the five major supervisors of Tianqi City have gathered to discuss these matters. However, without Xiao Yu, they have no candidates for the time being. They have set their sights on Xiao Lingchen, the son of Xiao Ruofeng, but this person is nowhere to be found for the time being.

So they went to Baixiaotang to gather information, and also planned to seek information from the former Anhe, now the Mingkun Escort Agency. Unfortunately, plans couldn't keep up with the situation. When they approached Su Changhe, they were met with rebuff. It turned out that Su Changhe simply didn't want to be drawn into the internal strife of the imperial court and fled without a word. Desperate, they could only pin all their hopes on the stubborn and taciturn Su Muyu. It's easy to imagine that with these difficult individuals and the taciturn Su Muyu, who couldn't muster a single word, those seeking information would soon give up.

As Su Changhe walked along, fiddling with his old dagger, his mind drifted to the words his subordinates had reported to him. It was said they had once encountered Mo Luyi, accompanied by a handsome man. The description suggested a close relationship between the two, their every gesture revealing a warm affection. This intrigued Su Changhe: what kind of man could have captured the heart of such a young woman?

Now free from the heavy pressures of the past, Su Changhe has completely relaxed, seemingly returning to the carefree, free spirit of his youth. His personality remains virtually unchanged, as uninhibited as ever. After considerable effort, everything is now back on track, and the vast majority of the underworld believe they have reformed and returned to the right path.

Su Changhe mused, "Since that's the case, it's time for me to step back and leave all matters to Su Muyu, Mu Yumo, and the others." However, the thought of Mu Yumo made him chuckle. This guy often neglected his duties, constantly visiting the Tang Sect. He wondered what charm Tang Lianyue possessed that could keep her obsessed with him, even after all these years. With that thought in mind, he headed towards Xueyue City.

On this side, Lei Wujie came to find Xiao Se and asked him to accompany him to find Ye Ruoyi. However, Xiao Chong was at Ye Ruoyi's place, and she was a little unhappy for a moment, but she still sat down at Xiao Chong's suggestion.
