The cannon fodder heiress trembled with fear after being recognized as a member of her family.

This was the first time Han Cuiyin had ever seen an inhabited house in Konoha.

Don't the people living here notice?

Mo Changdao is the Imperial Advisor and a powerful expert at the Innate Realm. He should be able to sense the inappropriate handling of his own residence.

These black wisps didn't appear to have appeared suddenly; they seemed to have been accumulating for a long time.

No wonder the Mo family is dwindling in number. Living here every day, no matter how strong one's body is, one will be affected by this black energy.

It was truly fortunate that Mo Changdao was able to cultivate to the Innate Realm.

For the sake of bloodline continuation, Mo Changdao now had a ready-made reason to harm those people.

Han Cuiyin's gaze grew colder, and she became increasingly annoyed with this classically elegant house.

As the sun rose, the Great Sun Tathagata Bright Flame Sutra began to circulate, and flames began to gather in her palms.

Just then, a group of guards rushed to the front yard. "The Imperial Advisor said someone has broken in. Everyone split up and search."

"We were discovered so quickly?" Han Cuiyin was startled, and the flame in her hand dissipated.

Suddenly, a divine sense swept across the front yard, examining almost the entire yard without missing a single detail.

Even from just a wisp of divine sense, Han Cuiyin felt a chill run through her body.

A chilling, destructive aura spread and lingered in the spot where she was for a long time.

The guards searched the area but found nothing. "Let's go and report to the Grand Preceptor. There are no strangers in the front courtyard."

The guards also had black energy on them, but it disappeared in an instant, as if it had been absorbed into their bodies.

Han Cuiyin dared not move, and did not keep staring at those people, letting that divine sense examine her.

However, she wore jewelry made entirely of top-grade spirit stones and secretly drew invisibility and concealment talismans on her body.

She has improved it, adding the Sun Flame, so that even those at the Tribulation Transcending stage would have difficulty detecting the flaws.

After calming down a bit, my body gradually warmed up.

Mo Changdao also came here, but he frowned and looked around.

At that very moment, the black energy entered his body and was expelled by him.

Han Cuiyin glanced at him coldly, then quickly looked away, certain that Mo Changdao knew about the situation of her house.

“Ancestor, there is no one in the front yard. Are you sure you’re not mistaken?” Mo Changdao spoke to the air.

Slowly, the black mist condensed in front of him, gradually forming a human shape, but it was not stable and seemed to be about to dissipate at any moment.

"I can't be wrong. Have you checked the formation?" The Mo family patriarch looked in Han Cuiyin's direction again, staring at it for a long time without looking away.

"We've checked it, and found nothing wrong. Ever since Fan'er went to the border, the old ancestor has been restless. The Yan family has already received news, so the body you desire will certainly not have any more problems."

Mo Changdao spoke with absolute certainty, continuing to assure the Mo family patriarch.

"Go take a look over there!" Black Mist pointed in Han Cuiyin's direction, signaling him to investigate.

Mo Changdao had no choice but to comply. "Ancestor, there's no one here. Aren't you worrying too much? One member of the Yan family has already walked right into our trap. If we can't catch the younger one, we can use his body for now. Why bother—"

"Quick, it's right there!"

Han Cuiyin was upset when she heard about the Yan family's affairs, but she was discovered by the Mo family patriarch, and a cloud of black energy rushed straight to her face.

Fortunately, I didn't make any rash moves just now. Otherwise, if I had gone into the lotus space and someone had discovered the spatial fluctuations, who knows what would have happened.

At that moment, she had only one thought: to escape from here first.

This patriarch of the Mo family is somewhat strange; she is no match for him at this moment.

Han Cuiyin remotely extracted some black energy, enveloped herself in it, and quickly left from the front yard.

If she goes into battle now, she will definitely be captured. She knows exactly what the Mo family patriarch did with the formation just now.

“That person’s aura has disappeared, but he hasn’t left, and the formation hasn’t fluctuated.” The Mo family patriarch snorted coldly. “Since you’ve come in, don’t even think about leaving unscathed. I’d like to have a good look at this person. I haven’t encountered such an expert in so many years. I really want to have a contest.”

If he were in his prime, dealing with petty thieves wouldn't have required so much effort.

The Mo family patriarch gave Mo Changdao a disdainful look. "Why aren't you going to ask about the Yan family's affairs? What are you standing here for? You're waiting for me to do everything. What use are you?"

Mo Changdao was inexplicably scolded again, and although he was unhappy, he did not show it on his face. "Ancestor, please let me know if you need anything."

He then bowed and took his leave.

The Mo family patriarch snorted coldly and began to use his divine sense to search for people. He searched everywhere except the courtyard where the ancestral hall was located.

Han Cuiyin dodged and hid until she finally breathed a sigh of relief when she entered a sparsely populated courtyard with little blackness.

The flames in his palm rekindled, and the black mist dissipated.

Just then, Mo Changdao stormed in, looking furious.

Mo Han, soaking in the bathtub, asked with concern, "Master, did the Ancestor get angry with you again?"

"It's alright, it's just that the Ancestor suspects someone has come in, but can't explain why, so it's normal for him to get a little angry." Mo Changdao suppressed his anger. "You shouldn't have acted rashly yesterday. Your junior brother has already sent word from the Pinglian Mountains. We'll just wait."

“The old patriarch’s temper is unpredictable. If he hadn’t suddenly lost his temper with you, I wouldn’t have taken action. However, there’s something strange about the Yan family estate. When I was keeping watch, I didn’t see the person who fought with me. There was also a woman at the Yan family’s place at night, and the Yan family members have disappeared.”

Mo Han was soaking in the bathtub, with only his head sticking out, talking about the Yan family.

Mo Changdao said quietly, "The person who saved you is called Yan Sui. He is from a collateral branch of the Yan family, and his father is Yan Qingping. The ancestor was looking for them. The direct branch is nowhere to be found for the time being, so Yan Sui is just there to fill the gap. It's just that he has bad luck and had to run into our Mo family."

Yan Sui? Han Cuiyin, who was outside, was shocked to hear this. This person was actually still alive.

Wouldn't that mean the location of Xiajing'ao is about to be exposed?

Before she could even think about it, the wisp of soul reappeared in the room.

"What have you accomplished all these years? You went to so much trouble to bring Mo Fan back to life, and he got away with such a perfect vessel! You didn't take on a single disciple with spiritual roots, only two useless ones! What have you accomplished? Where is Yan Sui? Take him to the ancestral hall, I'm going to possess him right now."

After the Mo family patriarch finished speaking, he reappeared in the ancestral hall as a cloud of black mist.

Having witnessed the entire event, Han Cuiyin already had a bold idea in her mind.

If implemented correctly, it can kill two birds with one stone.

Mo Changdao gritted his teeth and instructed:

"Mo Han, you stay in the water for now. The smell on your body needs to dissipate within twelve hours. I'll be right back."

Han Cuiyin did not move, but secretly surveyed the courtyard.

After Mo Changdao carried Yan Sui into the room in the ancestral hall, she quietly crept over.

"No, I know there's another young member of the Yan family's direct line, living in the capital. His name is Yan Xiao, and he lives in Ping—"

Yan Sui coughed up blood, lay on the ground, and died.
