Han Cuiyin changed into Luo Jingqian's clothes while she was inside the tree. She was dressed as a man, and her face had been altered.

Therefore, Yunxiu did not recognize who the person in front of her was. They had met once before at Mingyue Terrace in the capital.

Yunxiu still looks like a golden eagle, but a smaller one, about the size of a normal eagle.

The claws were sharp as blades, yet Han Cuiyin's clothes remained unmarked.

"..."

This was the first time Yunxiu had encountered such a situation. Her claws were always sharp, and instead of being torn in two, she turned the tables and took the initiative.

Han Cuiyin didn't linger in the fight, casually parried a few moves, and took the opportunity to break away.

"Who exactly is this person? How can he be so powerful? He doesn't look like Han Yueshi, but how does he possess the True Fire of the Sun? Could it be that Han Yueshi has really been wronged?"

Knowing he was no match for her, Yunxiu did not give chase.

Yin Xing and her group also rushed over.

"Is there really a thief hiding here?" Yun Jing's expression changed. "He took our stones without us even noticing, and then let the Sun's True Fire burn this place down. Such provocation, Grand Preceptor, how do we deal with him?"

"Han Yueshi is here!" Little Li saw a woman alone, and it was Han Yueshi.

"Miss Han just arrived here?" Yun Jing gestured for them not to make any rash moves and took the initiative to step forward and ask.

Han Yueshi was already feeling unhappy. She had just collected all the stones when Yan Jue, the old ghost, said that the Divine Wood had already been exchanged.

At this moment, she was even more convinced that Yan Jue was playing a trick on her, just to vent Han Cuiyin's anger.

"I did just arrive here. I saw the fire and came to check it out." Han Yueshi wasn't as averse to Yun Jing as before. "Have you exchanged anything? Do you know who exchanged the Divine Wood?"

She managed to extract information from Yan Jue, learning that Yin Xing and his group were also interested in the Divine Wood, and began to probe them.

When she was searching for stones earlier, she saw the golden eagle transform into Yunxiu. Although she was shocked at the time, she began to guess the identities of their group.

The man before her, who claimed to be her fiancé, was none other than the famous King of Yun.

In the book, he loved Han Lingzhi deeply, to the point of obsession, and in the end, he died in the capital of Daye Dynasty, pierced by ten thousand arrows.

Yun Jing does indeed resemble the people of Yun Kingdom.

The Yun Kingdom is located in a cold region, and people eat meat year-round, so both men and women there are strong and healthy.

Food production was scarce there, so in order to survive, women, just like men, were able to take up arms and go to the battlefield.

Unlike the Great Ye Dynasty, women there had a higher social status than women here.

Han Yueshi saw that Lin Chang and Lu Yong were also leading their people to gather here. Lian Yao was nowhere to be found. She could only steel herself and pretend to drift away with Yun Jing.

"This is the true fire of the sun; the fire will only extinguish when this great tree turns to ashes."

"Miss Han, did you truly not obtain the True Fire of the Sun?" Yun Jing asked with a probing expression. "If you didn't obtain it, why were you at the ancestral hall?"

"It's all because of my dear sister causing trouble behind my back! The white and red foxes beside her are Flying Illusion Foxes. They created an illusion and tricked me..." Han Yueshi was furious when she mentioned these things. Eager to gain recognition from others, she revealed what Lian Yao had told her.

Yun Jing's eyes flashed as he looked at the Imperial Advisor behind him. Their eyes met, and they understood each other's thoughts without needing to say a word.

Han Yueshi watched their actions and sneered inwardly: Lian Yao, if you dare to leave me here unattended, you, Han Cuiyin, and those two foxes will not get out of here unscathed.

"So that's where those two foxes came from. I thought they were just ordinary foxes." Yun Jing's eyes were filled with barely suppressed fervor.

The Imperial Advisor wanted him to refine his body, but he couldn't find the right medicinal ingredient to strengthen it.

Yunxiu was originally a powerful demon, but unfortunately she refused to have her blood drained.

Almost all the demons of the Great Ye Dynasty were gathered in the immortal mountains. The demons in the mountains were all of shallow cultivation and of no benefit to him.

These two foxes are quite good. The previous two gray foxes had mixed bloodlines and were far less powerful than the bloodlines of this pair of fox siblings.

"The fox siblings have already made their way here. Jingyun, if you want to exchange for anything, you'd better hurry. I secretly saw those people stealing other people's stones; they're no good."

Yun Jing did not reveal his real name, so Han Yueshi pretended not to recognize him, assuming that he had only been lustful at the ancestral hall, and thus glossed over the matter without exposing his identity.

"Ah Xing, take a look at Minghan!" Little Li's hand had barely touched her son's back through his clothes when she quickly withdrew it, a chill running straight up her fingertips and into her whole body.

Yin Xing was overjoyed upon seeing this, "Good, good, good! My son is indeed worthy of my bloodline. He is so powerful after awakening."

Where they were, the cold air gradually spread and turned into ice.

Yun Jing was also beside Yin Xing, his face beaming with joy.

Little Li, unaware of what had happened, turned pale. Upon seeing Han Yueshi, she rushed towards her, demanding, "What kind of pills did you give me? Why is Minghan like this? If anything happens to him, his father will not let you off the hook!"

She spoke her last sentence without confidence.

Han Yueshi listened and simply smiled.

That pill was for Luo Yuan, not Luo Minghan.

Little Li persisted, clutching Han Yueshi's clothes and refusing to let go, "My son... how can my son get better? You must have the antidote, give it to me!"

Han Yueshi felt dizzy from being shaken and pushed the person away. "I never gave Luo Minghan any medicine. That pill was only meant to save the Duke of Dingguo. I was just trying anything, but who knew you had such malicious intentions and didn't care about the Duke of Dingguo's life or death."

She never expected that Lady Li would be so bold as to ask the Duke of Dingguo to raise her son.

As for the pills, she had no idea; they were all given to her by Lian Yao. They were supposedly able to control people, but Luo Minghan's condition was completely different.

The two women were fighting, while Yunxiu watched coldly from the sidelines. She didn't like either of them and let them do whatever they wanted.

"The fire is about to go out, and some people are already coming this way. Should we leave, or fight them?" Yunxiu's voice was flat. When she saw Luo Minghan, it was as if she had seen something dirty. He was just a half-demon. So what if he had awakened his bloodline? Early death was their fate.

"Leave first. Minghan is at a critical moment and cannot be disturbed." Yin Xing's voice was deep. "Once we find out who got the Divine Wood and take it back, these people will be no threat."

Ignoring the murderous glare from Madam Li, Han Yueshi left with Yun Jing.

Lin Chang and Lu rushed over only to find nothing. "She got away again!"

The sun was burning fiercely, and they had noticed it from afar, but despite their haste, they still couldn't catch the person.

"Let's keep chasing!" Lin Chang and his men left.

Following closely behind were Geng Rui and his group.

"Yin Chang, are you sure it's Miss Han?"

Han Cuiyin had already disappeared underground. "Tell me, what exactly happened?"

The green sprouts transformed into vine bracelets, tightly wrapped around her left wrist.
