The Lord God is kneeling on the washboard again

At that moment, the atmosphere within the once peaceful and tranquil Qingfeng Sect suddenly grew tense. News had just arrived that the formidable Sun and Moon Palace Master, Xing Xuanli, was about to visit! And the first to receive this astonishing news was none other than the Qingfeng Sect's leader.

The moment he heard this news, the Sect Master's previously calm face instantly broke into a joyful smile. His eyes sparkled with excitement, and his heart was filled with anticipation. He thought, "The Sun and Moon Palace Master's visit must be about something important to discuss. Perhaps this will be a great opportunity for the development of Qingfeng Sect."

When An Lingyan learned that Xing Xuanli had come to Qingfeng Sect, she ran to the Sect Master with great joy and shouted anxiously, "Father, Father, I heard that Sister A Li is coming. Is it true?"

Her face was filled with anticipation, her eyes sparkling, she pulled the sleeve of the sect leader and shook it continuously, as if wanting to get an immediate affirmative answer from her father.

On the other side, in the Regent's Palace, Xing Xuanli was in the Yuxiao space, concentrating on refining the Peiyuan Pill.

A rich spiritual energy permeated the Jade Flute space, and the surrounding stone walls were inlaid with exotic gemstones, emitting a soft glow. Xing Xuanli was dressed in a simple and elegant dress, her sleeves fluttering, and her face appeared particularly focused and solemn in the light.

Before her, an exquisite alchemy furnace stood, a flame blazing beneath it, emitting a strange hue. Xing Xuanli formed seals with her hands, casting spells one after another, precisely controlling the flame's temperature and the rhythm of the alchemy.

As time went on, a roaring sound rose from the alchemy furnace, and the spiritual energy it emitted grew stronger and stronger. Xing Xuanli's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, but her eyes remained firm, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Finally, amidst a burst of brilliant light, the lid of the alchemy furnace slowly rose, and a rich medicinal aroma filled the air. Xing Xuanli smiled with satisfaction. She carefully took out the successfully refined Peiyuan Pill and examined it carefully, her eyes filled with satisfaction.

After Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) finished his meeting with Lin Luochuan and the others, he dragged his slightly exhausted body back to Liyue Courtyard. He pushed open the door with great anticipation, hoping to see the familiar figure of Xing Xuanli immediately, but the room was empty.

A trace of loss flashed in his eyes, his brows slightly furrowed, and he paced back and forth in the room, wondering in his heart: "Where will she go?"

Yun Mohan walked to the window and looked at the scenery outside. Anxiety gradually spread in his heart. He recalled every little moment he had spent with Xing Xuanli. Those warm memories made him even more anxious.

"Did something happen?" This thought flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.

But he saw little Mu Han playing with the phantom fox by the lake. Yun Mo Han (Nangong Han) walked over, squatted down, and asked softly, "Mu Han, where is your mother?"

When little Mu Han heard his father's voice, he stopped playing, raised his head, blinked his bright eyes, and replied in a baby voice, "Daddy, I don't know. I didn't see Mommy when I woke up."

Yun Mohan frowned, stood up, and looked around, but still couldn't see Xing Xuanli. He became more and more worried, and looked at little Muhan and said, "Muhan, be good, keep playing. Daddy will go find your mother."

After saying that, Yun Mohan turned and walked in another direction, calling Xing Xuanli's name as he walked, his voice echoing in the empty lake.

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) turned around and prepared to look for Xing Xuanli, but saw Xing Xuanli slowly walking towards the lake.

Her figure was graceful and her steps were light, like a blooming lotus swaying in the breeze. The sunlight shone on her face, casting a soft halo, making her look even more beautiful.

Yun Mohan's eyes lit up instantly, and the worry in his heart dissipated. He quickly walked forward, his lips curled up unconsciously, and said, "Where have you been? I was so worried."

Xing Xuanli smiled slightly and replied softly, "I just went for a walk nearby. Seeing that you were in a meeting, I didn't disturb you."

Their eyes met, each filled with affection and concern.

Xing Xuanli said softly, "How did the discussion with Big Brother and the others go?" Yun Mohan asked with concern and curiosity in his eyes.

Xing Xuanli frowned slightly, sighed softly, and said, "The situation is a bit complicated. The ideas and demands of each party are different, so we need to consider it carefully."

Yun Mohan gently held Xing Xuanli's hand and comforted her: "Don't worry too much, there will always be a solution."

Xing Xuanli nodded, her eyes revealing determination: "Well, I understand, but the trade-offs in this matter do require some thought."

The two stood by the lake, the breeze blowing, their hair fluttering, the atmosphere was quiet and warm, and they temporarily forgot about all the troubled affairs.

On the other side, in Lingxiao Sect, Luo Lingshan was not so happy. She was severely punished by Luo Nanyang.

Luo Lingshan lowered her head, her face filled with grievance and resentment. Luo Nanyang's face was serious, his eyes filled with sternness and disappointment. He shouted, "You have committed such a serious mistake. If you are not severely punished, how can we restore the reputation of our Lingxiao Sect?"

Luo Lingshan bit her lip and tried to defend herself: "Father, I...I didn't do it on purpose."

"Shut up!" Luo Nanyang interrupted her, "Your mistakes have caused serious consequences. No matter how much you try to defend yourself, it's all in vain."

Luo Lingshan's eyes were filled with tears, and her body was trembling slightly. She knew that this mistake had infuriated the Sect Master, but she also felt somewhat wronged. The surrounding disciples were silent, and no one dared to plead for her.

Luo Nanyang waved his hand and said, "From today on, you will go to the back mountain and reflect on your mistakes. Without my permission, you are not allowed to take a single step out!"

Luo Lingshan turned around in despair and slowly walked towards the back mountain. Her lonely and desolate back looked extremely desolate.

Luo Lingshan no longer has any system help.

Once, the system was her greatest reliance. No matter what difficulties or obstacles she encountered, the system always provided her with solutions, allowing her to overcome many difficulties. But now, that mysterious and powerful system disappeared without a trace, and she felt as if she had suddenly lost her most solid shield.

Luo Lingshan felt utterly lost and helpless. Problems she had once easily overcome now seemed incredibly daunting. Without the system's prompts and guidance, she felt like a headless fly, floundering through her predicament. Every step was fraught with uncertainty and risk, and her former confidence was gradually eroding.

She tried to solve the problem on her own, but repeated failures left her devastated. Luo Lingshan began to reflect on her past over-reliance on the system and tried to find new methods and solutions to regain her confidence, but the road ahead was still full of fog and unknown challenges.

Luo Lingshan said secretly: "Xing Xuanli, I will not let you go!" Her eyes were burning with flames of anger and resentment, and her clenched teeth showed her inner determination.

In this dark corner, Luo Lingshan raged alone, Xing Xuanli's image constantly appearing in her mind. The scenes of being suppressed by Xing Xuanli repeatedly haunted her like nightmares. She clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, but she felt no pain.

"One day, I'll make you pay for everything you've done!" Luo Lingshan's voice was particularly sinister in the silence, as if squeezed out from between her teeth. Every word was filled with deep malice and determination for revenge.

At this time, Luo Lingshan's mind had been blinded by hatred. She wanted to take revenge on Xing Xuanli at all costs, completely ignoring the dangerous situation such obsession would lead her to.
