Just then, a slight sound of footsteps was heard. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw an imperial physician slowly walking in with a bowl of steaming hot medicine that exuded a strong medicinal aroma.

The imperial physician came to the bedside, bowed to Emperor Mingde, and then carefully handed the medicine bowl to the attendant beside him. After the attendant took the medicine bowl, he gently helped Emperor Mingde to stand up so that he could drink the bitter medicine smoothly.

Not long after drinking the medicine, the effect of the medicine began to take effect. The eyelids of Emperor Mingde, who was originally unconscious, trembled slightly a few times, and then he slowly opened his eyes.

At first, his eyes were a little confused, as if he was unfamiliar with everything around him. But soon, he came to his senses and saw the people waiting by the bed. When he saw Xiao Se, in particular, a weak smile appeared on his face.

But Xiao Se didn't give him a good look. Seeing that he woke up, he didn't stay for long and turned around and left. Seeing this, Xiao Yu didn't know whether he should leave as well, but it was not a good idea.

But Emperor Mingde's eyes were all on Xiao Se's back. A hint of sarcasm flashed across his face, and he followed Xiao Se out.

Emperor Mingde saw Xiao Yu's back and asked Sikong Changfeng beside him, "Was that Old Seven just now?"

Sikong Changfeng: "It is indeed His Royal Highness the Red King."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Mingde sighed softly, his eyes filled with complex emotions. "My children are probably quite resentful of me. Envoy Suzaku, do you think I've been a terrible father?"

Sikong Changfeng stood aside and said after a moment of silence: "Your Majesty, Your Highnesses may just be impulsive."

Emperor Mingde shook his head and said, "I am not a competent father." Then he coughed again.

At this moment, outside the towering and imposing palace gate, Xiao Se was striding forward hurriedly, as if something terrifying was chasing him. Xiao Yu followed closely behind Xiao Se, looking a little tired, but still refusing to give up.

"Sixth brother, wait for me! What are you going to do why you are walking so fast?" Xiao Yu shouted loudly to Xiao Se in front of him while panting.

After hearing the voice, Xiao Se paused for a moment, turned around and gave a cold look at Xiao Yu who was running towards him breathlessly, and said impatiently: "What on earth do you want to do by following me so closely?"

Seeing this, Xiao Yu quickly raised his eyebrows, a look of dissatisfaction and grievance on his face, and retorted: "Sixth Brother, this is your fault. We are brothers after all, how can you be so cold and heartless to me?"

However, Xiao Se just snorted disdainfully, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and responded with a mocking tone: "I don't remember that there was any friendship between us."

After saying that, he continued to quicken his pace without looking back and walked straight towards his own Snowfall Villa.

Seeing Xiao Se walking further and further away, Xiao Yu thought for a moment and decided not to return to the Chiwang Mansion which made him feel depressed.

So, without hesitation, he set off, following closely behind Xiao Se as they headed towards Xueluo Villa. Along the way, neither of them spoke again, and the atmosphere was unusually dull and solemn.

Mo Luyi and Zhao Yuzhen planned to go to the Imperial Observatory, because Feixuan and Li Fansong were both there at the time.

Now that they have arrived in Tianqi, it is natural for them to go and take a look. Moreover, they had promised Mo Yi that if they arrived in Tianqi City, they would help him say hello to Senior Brother Qi.

Therefore, this trip was imperative no matter what. However, just as the two were about to leave, they suddenly caught a glimpse of Jin Xuan standing opposite them, staring at them intently.

Jin Xuan's face was gloomy as water. He slowly asked, "I wonder what it is that you two have come uninvited and barged into the Beili Imperial Palace so brazenly? What is your purpose?"

Hearing this, Mo Luyi's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a sly smile, and she responded lightly: "If I tell you that we just happened to pass by, would you believe it?" After saying that, she blinked at Zhao Yuzhen, seeming quite satisfied with her answer.

Upon hearing this, Jin Xuan's expression instantly became uglier. He snorted coldly and shouted angrily: "Hmph! Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? How dare you fool me with such absurd words? It's obvious that you are intentionally looking for trouble here!" As he spoke, an invisible pressure emanated from him, heading straight towards Mo Luyi and the people beside her.

But for Mo Luyi and Zhao Yuzhen, this pressure was just a breeze on their faces.

Mo Luyi folded her arms across her chest, her expression calm and composed, showing no trace of fear at all. She said coldly, "Eunuch Jin Xuan, looking at your posture, are you trying to stop us?"

Jin Xuan's heart sank when he saw that the pressure he released had no effect on the people in front of him, but he still forced himself to remain calm, raised his palm, and slapped them hard without hesitation.

In fact, Mo Luyi had already thought about coming to Tianqi City to completely eliminate the so-called "Purple Potato Spirit" Jin Xuan.

However, considering that young people should be given some opportunities to hone their skills and grow, I suppressed this idea for the time being.

But who could have expected that she had clearly given him a chance, but Jin Xuan was so ignorant of the danger that he insisted on running around in front of them, which really made Mo Luyi feel that not taking action would be disrespectful to his appearance.

In a flash, Mo Lvyi suddenly raised her hand and swung out a palm. Jin Xuan saw this and hurriedly raised his hand to try to block it. Unfortunately, in the face of Mo Lvyi's absolutely powerful strength, Jin Xuan's resistance was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, overestimating his own strength.

With a loud bang, Mo Lvyi's palm wind surged like a tidal wave, slamming fiercely into Jin Xuan's body. Jin Xuan suddenly felt a huge force coming at him, and the whole person flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily to the ground.

Not only that, his body was severely injured, and his arm suffered a severe comminuted fracture. Even more fatally, Mo Luyi's palm strike destroyed his years of martial arts training, leaving him instantly disabled and powerless.

Mo Luyi glanced coldly at Jin Xuan who was lying on the ground groaning in pain. She felt annoyed even to look at him for another moment, and then she walked past him as if she was stepping on nothing more than an insignificant ant.

However, at this moment, Zhao Yuzhen, who had been standing aside and watching coldly, suddenly noticed the unwillingness in Jin Xuan's eyes.
