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

Luo Jingqian fell from his horse, but fortunately Han Cuiyin arrived in time, preventing him from falling and damaging his handsome face.

“You didn’t even make thorough preparations before coming out to chase after someone,” Han Cuiyin said, cradling his head and giving him a pill, then pouring him a cup of spiritual spring water. “Just eat this for now. I don’t have any merit to improve your constitution this time.”

He held up a green bamboo umbrella with one hand and cradled Luo Jingqian's head with the other.

When Qinghe emerged from the water, soaking wet, this was the scene he saw, and he dared not make a sound to disturb him.

He wanted to be invisible, but Han Cuiyin wouldn't give him that chance. "Why aren't you coming over! Knowing he's not in good health, how can you leave him exposed to the elements for so long and just abandon him!"

The ulcers on Luo Jingqian's hands and ears disappeared quickly.

When he opened his eyes, through the thin veil, a beautiful, angry face came into view.

"Cuiyin, what brings you here?" Luo Jingqian wanted to play the victim for a while longer, but Han Cuiyin pulled her hand away, and if he continued to pretend, he would fall to the ground.

"Qinghe, can you capture him?" It was as if he had just seen it. Water droplets were dripping from Qinghe's clothes, seemingly expressing his helplessness.

"My lord, Lianji's brother has run away with his men." Qinghe had asked Madam Meng some questions and already knew the man's identity.

Luo Jingqian got up from the ground and took the bamboo umbrella. "They got away? With so many of you, you still can't catch those ordinary people?"

Needless to say, Qinghe's strength is not comparable to Qingshan's, but it's not enough for them to let people escape.

He had done a good job in his previous tasks and rarely made mistakes.

"I accidentally fell into the water and was held back by those people, so I couldn't exert any force. That person named Ei-o is not like an ordinary person. He is extremely fast. I guess he deliberately let those people fall into the water, leaving behind a few burdens and getting rid of me."

Qinghe voiced his guess and lowered his head in shame.

My junior brother can't even handle such a simple task. What if he replaces me when we get back to the capital? There are still ten people eyeing him, eager to follow him!

The other two were unaware of Qinghe's worries.

"Qinghe, have someone escort the Meng family back to await my mother's judgment. Later, you will join us in the pursuit." Luo Jingqian dismissed the man and took Han Cuiyin aside to talk.

"To make a long story short, this Ei-o might be a demon! That Rei-hime must have gone to the capital. I suspect they are connected to Madam Luo the Second."

Luo Jingqian's expression changed. "It's her again? That thing on my father's body might also be related to her."

"Yes, the day your mother divorced, I said she suffered a backlash, meaning someone was protecting your younger brother behind the scenes! After your father recovers, it would be best to thoroughly investigate whether the son born to Madam Luo is his biological child."

After Han Cuiyin finished speaking, she was certain that her guess was very likely true.

"Fine!" Luo Jingqian said with difficulty, "My mother has been deceived by these people all these years, they deserve to die!"

His aura grew increasingly cold, and his killing intent intensified, causing leaves to fall to the ground.

Han Cuiyin asked in surprise, "You broke through?"

In such a harsh training environment, this person's talent is truly terrifying.

He reached the peak of Qi Refining in just one year, and with another opportunity, he will be able to establish his foundation. He is no less than the geniuses of the Longevity Realm.

"Hmm." Luo Jingqian didn't say anything more, glancing around. "Do you know where Meng Zhiping is?"

He was well aware of Han Cuiyin's formidable skills.

As their relationship grew closer, he naturally didn't hold back.

"They've headed towards Changyong County's capital. Let's go after them! You and Qinghe's horses can be taken back by them. I'll lead the rest of you to catch up."

After giving his instructions, Luo Jingqian glanced at the people around him who were fighting the flood, but didn't say anything more.

He did come up with a solution, but since this was the Second Prince's job, it was best not to interfere too much.

Moreover, if they want to help these people, they need Cuiyin's help.

"No need to look, I can't control it. If I make a move, a bolt of lightning will turn me to ashes."

Seeing his expression, Han Cuiyin directly refused, silencing his attempt to ask for help.

She repaired her wooden fish in the cold pool. Although the cracks were not visible on the outside, her internal strength had not actually recovered.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have used the Jade Five Elements Staff for transportation.

After all, this jade staff is merely a magical artifact used for treasure hunting in the Realm of Immortality.

It's barely usable here.

"Some things should be governed by the laws of nature. Don't interfere lightly, or you'll get involved in cause and effect, and neither side may end up well."

Han Cuiyin knew that the tradition here had been broken, so she couldn't help but give him a few pointers.

“Yes, the Second Prince has already come to inspect, so the situation here shouldn't be any worse. Right now, we should focus on finding the two who escaped. Once we catch them, we can talk about other things. Also, if you interfere rashly, they might not appreciate it and might even think you're trying to steal their credit!”

When Qinghe returned after finishing his business, he happened to overhear their conversation.

Han Cuiyin stretched out her hand, and three branches fell from the tree. "Let's go, let's cross the river."

The flood was fierce, and several towns in Changyong County were affected. The river in front of them was hundreds of meters wide.

Fortunately, the weather has cleared up recently, and there is no sign of it widening further; otherwise, the homes of the nearby residents would be in danger.

People on the bank saw them throw the branches into the river and then lightly leap onto them.

"Huh, these people want to go to the other side like this? What a pipe dream! If they fall in, no one will dare to go down and rescue them."

Someone on the shore said.

They had tried to dissuade that family from crossing the river on a raft.

They won't force people to listen; good advice is hard to persuade.

What happened next stunned them.

A girl in a green dress, standing on tree branches, rides the waves.

Two men followed closely behind.

They were too shocked to react as the person in charge came over to urge them to get to work.

When they looked up again, the three people were gone.

Qinghe was still a little dizzy when he reached the shore. "Junior brother, how come Miss Cuiyin knows so much!"

Previously, when he chased after the Meng family, he dared to show his skills in front of others because the distance was not far, and these mortals only regarded him as a knight-errant.

Three thin branches carried them to the other side with ease, something they never dared to imagine.

Han Cuiyin took out a personal seal, "Go!"

"Chase!"

Luo Jingqian had witnessed her tracking skills during the Ghost Festival and did not hesitate.

The three moved extremely fast, only slowing down when they reached populated areas.

"It's nearby, let's split up and search." Han Cuiyin put away the seal, not caring about the displaced people in the vicinity.

There are so many pitiful people in the world; she doesn't have the energy to save everyone. The imperial court has already provided disaster relief; she doesn't need to interfere.

The three split up.

Luo Jingqian, carrying a bamboo umbrella and wearing a mask, attracted a lot of attention.

"This man has a similar air about him to that imperial envoy. Could he be a noble young master from some family?"

Luo Jingqian acted as if he hadn't heard anything and went straight towards the horses and carriages parked there.
