Upon learning of this, the Empress rushed to the Crown Prince's palace in a great hurry.

Seeing her son in such a disheveled state, she felt heartbroken and tears streamed down her face.

"Huan'er! My Huan'er! What's wrong with you?!" The Empress cried out, trying to separate Xiao Chuhuan from the concubine, but found herself powerless to do so.

"Mother..." Xiao Chuhuan was so ashamed that he wished he could disappear into the ground.

He looked nothing like a prince at this moment; he resembled a customer caught in the act of adultery.

While sending people to search for extraordinary individuals, the Empress secretly investigated the matter, trying to find the mastermind behind it all.

She had a vague feeling that this was not a coincidence, and that someone must have deliberately framed the Crown Prince.

Meanwhile, Shen Yunxi was leisurely sitting in her courtyard, watching her two children cultivate. She and Di Xuanshang were sipping fragrant tea, listening to the various rumors coming from outside, and a smug smile appeared on their lips.

"Master, news has come from the palace that the Empress has sent people everywhere to search for a master who can solve the strange phenomenon on the Crown Prince," Lan Yu reported, based on what it had heard and investigated. "Moreover, the Empress seems to have begun to suspect that this was done on purpose."

Shen Yunxi put down her teacup, a cold glint flashing in her eyes. "So what if she suspects me? Without evidence, what can she do to me?"

"Alright, you continue to keep an eye on their movements. I'm going to cultivate." Shen Yunxi stood up and walked towards her room.

Shen Yunxi stretched, her bones cracking softly, a powerful aura surging around her, then vanishing in an instant. "After resting for a few days, my muscles and bones are a bit loose; I should go and strengthen them."

Di Xuanshang put down his teacup, his deep gaze falling on her with a hint of barely perceptible tenderness. "I'll go protect you."

Shen Yunxi turned to look at him, a hint of surprise flashing in her clear eyes. "You knew I was going to break through?"

She has been deliberately hiding her strength these days, and even Grandpa Shen did not realize her true level. How did this guy figure it out?

Di Xuanshang did not speak, but simply nodded slightly.

His deep eyes seemed to see through everything. In front of him, Shen Yunxi was like a transparent sheet of paper, with no way to hide her thoughts.

Shen Yunxi's face flushed slightly, and she hurriedly ran into the house.

The soul power that Zhiyan had previously infused into her surged within her sea of ​​consciousness, like a vast and boundless galaxy, containing endless power. Immersed in this immense energy, Shen Yunxi felt her cultivation level rapidly improve, easily breaking through the bottleneck and ultimately settling firmly at the ninth level of the Spirit Venerable realm.

"You've reached the ninth level of Spirit Venerable?" A hint of surprise flashed in Di Xuanshang's deep eyes, and his deep voice carried a trace of disbelief.

He originally thought that with Shen Yunxi's talent, breaking through to the fifth level of Spirit Venerable was the limit, but he did not expect that she would actually reach the ninth level of Spirit Venerable. This speed is simply too amazing.

Shen Yunxi smiled sweetly, her eyebrows and eyes curving like a crescent moon.

"Mmm!" she responded softly, her tone carrying a hint of pride, yet also a touch of playfulness: "Keep it a secret for me!"

She then extended her slender index finger, placed it to her lips, and made a shushing gesture, her clear eyes gleaming with a cunning light.

Looking at her lively and adorable appearance, Di Xuanshang felt a warm current surge in his heart. His thin lips curved slightly, revealing a doting smile: "Okay!"
