Xie Jinglan quietly poked her head out of the kitchen door and felt a little relieved when she saw her grandfather and grandmother finally hugging each other.

The misunderstanding between the couple was finally resolved, after much effort.

If they could rescue their mother and reunite their family, everything would be complete.

Thinking of her mother who was still having her blood cut for medicine, Xie Jinglan clenched her fists tightly again, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

Anyone who hurts my mother must die!

The next day, thick smoke was still billowing from the Tianlong Sect opposite, which had been burning all night.

Xie Jinglan got up and washed up. Just as she walked out of the room, a figure suddenly flashed in front of her. It was Xiao Jinzi who had been guarding outside all night.

"Master, Gu Qi didn't show up last night. He must have run away long ago!"

"Well, he can't run away." It would be strange if this bastard dared to show up.

Xie Jinglan came to the leisure area and saw that everyone had arrived and was waiting for her to have breakfast.

With her, her grandmother, her grandfather, and Beitang Yuan's current cultivation levels, they don't need three meals a day. But because Xie Feng has lost all his cultivation and Xie Yunqing is still young, they have to eat every day.

So, she prepared a lot of food in the space. After all, things put into the space would never go bad.

"Grandpa, grandma, dad, good morning!" Xie Jinglan walked over and greeted everyone one by one.

"Lan'er, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, you must not be rude." Xie Wanying looked at her granddaughter helplessly.

Knowing that Beitang Yuan treated his granddaughter very well, he didn't care about some etiquette.

But he was, after all, the crown prince, and the boundaries between the monarch and his subjects were clear. She couldn't let her granddaughter lose her manners and propriety. After all, the royal majesty could not be offended.

Therefore, no matter what, she must remind her granddaughter to abide by her duties and not forget the difference in status because of the prince's tolerance.

"Yes." Xie Jinglan knelt and bowed to Beitang Yuan, "Your Highness greets His Majesty the Crown Prince..."

"No need to be polite." Beitang Yuan lifted her up with an invisible force. "Old Lady, Lan'er is my fiancée. She will spend the rest of my life with me and walk hand in hand with me. Her status will be equal to mine. Just because she is a woman, her status will not be lower than mine."

Hearing what he said, Zong Zhengyi and Xie Wanying, mother and son, were surprised.

In Guangyuan Continent, men are superior to women. Who would have thought that Beitang Yuan, as the crown prince, would break the traditional secular concepts and the royal ancestral system for Lan'er?

"Your Highness..." Xie Wanying was about to speak when Zong Zhengyi, who was sitting next to her, held her hand. "Our Lan'er is indeed outstanding and deserves the best man in the world.

Beitang Yuan, I hope you won't forget what I said today."

"I mean what I say." Beitang Yuan stood up and bowed deeply to the three people.

"Second Elder, Old Madam, and Prince Xie, please rest assured! Lan'er is my savior. You know, if it weren't for her, I wouldn't be standing here talking to you. Meeting Lan'er is my good fortune, and it's my destiny.

I, Beitang Yuan, swear here: I will never let her down in this life. If I break my oath today, I will be struck by lightning and will not be allowed to…"

Xie Jinglan was startled and quickly covered his mouth with her hand. "What nonsense are you talking about? Have you forgotten what we agreed to do?"

Their agreement only lasts for one year, and she will leave once her mother is rescued!

But no matter what, she will help him stabilize the world, and the Duke of Li's Mansion will have to rely on him in the future.

Beitang Yuan took her hand, his eyes shining like stars, "Lan'er, I know you don't trust me in your heart, but I will prove everything with my actions."

Xie Jinglan looked away, somewhat afraid to look him in the eye.

"I'm hungry!"

"Let's eat!" Xie Wanying said.

Hearing this, Xie Xue and Xie Yin brought breakfast.

Some steamed dumplings and congee.

"Father, please eat!" Xie Yunqing put a steamed dumpling into Xie Feng's bowl. "I heard from Sister Xie Yin that this dumpling is filled with mutton. Eat more and you'll get better soon."

"Okay, Qing'er, you eat too." Xie Feng touched his son's head.

More than a quarter of an hour later, they left here, with Beitang Yuan piloting the helicopter.

He circled over the Tianlong Sect and left after seeing that it had completely fallen into ruins.

It was not until noon that they entered the territory of Fengluo Sect and stopped outside Xihua City.

They stopped here and decided to find out about the Fengluo Sect's situation before taking any action.

Beitang Yuan and Zong Zhengyi had both been here and knew that Xihua City was like Yingjie City on Linggun Mountain, and its existence depended on Fengluo Sect.

However, when they entered Xihua City, they found that there was no one in sight and the shops on both sides of the street were closed.

It was noon, but the streets were deserted. Not only were there no pedestrians, there wasn't even a single person opening their doors for business. Every house was closed, and it looked like a deserted city, eerily quiet.

Xie Jinglan and Beitang Yuan looked at each other, and a bad premonition arose in their hearts.

“Get out first!”

The two of them flew away and left here quickly.

Standing outside the city, Xie Jinglan spread her spiritual sense, covering the entire Xihua City, but did not sense the breath of a single living person.

Zong Zhengyi also came out of the space and looked at the empty city in front of him, frowning slightly, "Did something happen here?"

Xie Jinglan shook her head. "Except for the absence of people, there's nothing unusual."

"Everyone in a city has run away. Could the people from Fengluo Sect have run away too?" Xiao Jinzi's voice came from the space.

"Let's go to Fengluo Sect." Beitang Yuan said.

The three of them flashed and headed towards Feng Luozong.

Soon, the iconic stone tablet of Fengluo Sect came into their sight.

The towering stone tablet seems to pierce the sky, giving people a sense of endless majesty.

There were three big characters "Feng Luo Zong" engraved on the stone tablet, which jumped onto the tablet like a flying dragon and a dancing phoenix, emitting a faint glow, appearing and disappearing, as if a mysterious power was flowing through it.

"Hmph!" Beitang Yuan suddenly flew up into the air.

He raised his right hand, and with an extremely powerful force contained in his palm, he slapped it out violently.

All I heard was a loud, earth-shaking "boom" that resounded through the sky, as if the entire world was shaking.

The huge stone tablet that seemed indestructible was broken in half and collapsed to the ground like a collapsed mountain.

Gravel was scattered everywhere and smoke and dust were billowing.

"Lu You, get out here for me!" Beitang Yuan's voice could be heard over a hundred miles away.

Zong Zhengyi and Xie Jinglan also flew into the air, looking down at the huge Fengluo Sect complex below.

The Fengluo Sect is also an ancient sect that has been passed down for thousands of years. Although its profound foundation is slightly inferior to that of the Tianlong Sect, it should not be underestimated.

"There's no sign of anyone either. Could they have all run away?" Xiao Jinzi flashed out and saw that the sect was empty, without a single person in sight.
