All beasts submit, and the peerless imperial princess is about to defy the heavens!

Then you see the Hai family members on the other side defining the nature of the matter with their words.

It was clearly Feng Ning who killed Xiao Yi, but they twisted it into the story that she intentionally murdered him.

They insisted that the person had just died more than ten days ago, claiming that the body had been destroyed and there was no evidence left.

When they all reached a consensus and turned their anger towards Feng Ning.

Feng Ning suddenly burst out laughing.

Hai Chenghao glanced at her sideways. "What are you laughing at?"

Feng Ning clapped her hands.

"I laugh at how well you planned this, how flawless it was, but didn't you consider what if it failed? Or what if I left behind evidence?"

Hai Chenghao sneered, "These are all people from my Hai family. They can testify for me that you intentionally killed my son and destroyed the body. You have a grudge against my Hai family, so naturally you cannot testify. The woman next to you is your senior sister, a cut above the rest, so she also cannot testify."

Feng Ning's smile deepened. "So you people are brainless, aren't you? Why didn't you look up before saying these things?"

The group looked up with some suspicion, but found nothing.

Feng Ning turned to look at the Hai family head, "No way, the Hai family head is a late-stage Nascent Soul expert, how come he can't even understand such a small barrier?"

The head of the Hai family felt a chill run down his spine, a sense of foreboding washing over him.

He looked up and then swung his palm, splitting the barrier open.

Immediately afterwards, a curtain of water appeared in the sky.

The Hai family panicked immediately, so everything they said and did was seen by the people outside.

Feng Ning could tell what they were thinking just by looking at their expressions.

He simply nodded. "Not only that, the one in the sky is not only Hunyuan Chengyou, but also the cities we've passed through along the way, and even the various sects. I released one in every city I visited, so everything you said and did just now was relayed to everyone's ears without missing a single word."

Hai Chenghao suddenly felt a surge of powerlessness.

"You! You're such a slut!" Xia Man suddenly lunged at him, cursing loudly.

Her eyes were red-rimmed, and she charged straight up with her sword.

"I shouldn't have sent you away in the first place. I should have killed you immediately! I've left myself with this trouble for nothing! Why don't you just die? Since you've become that jinx, you should just die! Why did you live until now? Why did you harm my son? I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you."

Feng Ning frowned, her thoughts suddenly becoming somewhat chaotic.

"Was it you who sent me away from the Hai family?"

Xia Man was taken aback, but after realizing what she had said, she decided to just go all out.

"So what if you are! You're just a bastard who came from who-knows-where, and you dare to dream of being a child of the Hai family? You're dreaming! How could someone as divine as Brother Yao have a son like you? Don't even think about tarnishing his reputation, you should just die!"

"I was going to send you away, to make you bear the name of a jinx, and to make you suffer a terrible death for the rest of your life. It's a pity that the old bastard by your side insisted on protecting you, and you managed to escape. But since you left, why did you come back! Why don't you just die?"

She was so engrossed in venting her frustrations that she didn't realize what she was saying, nor did she notice her husband's increasingly dark expression.

Feng Ning dodged while listening to her words.

In order to hear the whole story, she barely fought back, just wanting to hear her finish speaking.

It wasn't until she intermittently revealed the truth, until she could say nothing more and kept cursing, that Feng Ning finally intervened and subdued her.

It didn't take much effort; they trapped the person in the formation with just two moves.

Feng Ning didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and she didn't blame her.

On the contrary, it was fortunate that she left the Hai family; otherwise, if she had stayed in such a family, who knows how much sin she would have committed and how much suffering she would have endured.

It's better to stay outside.

Fortunately, the original Feng Ning was raised by wolves until she was five years old and did not suffer much. After she turned five, she started fighting in the slave market.

She didn't care about any past grievances between their parents.

She looked at the head of the Hai family, "Head of the Hai family, if there's nothing else, keep an eye on your people and don't let her bite like a mad dog again. I won't be so polite next time."

Then he waved to the sky and said, "Thank you all for witnessing this. Consider it a show for you."

With that, he glanced back at the head of the Hai family, gave him a look that said "good luck," and then left.

The Hai family had few descendants. After Hai Xingwei died, only Hai Lingruo remained as a grandson; the others were from collateral branches.

With Hai Lingruo in that state, the Hai family is doomed sooner or later, so he's not in a hurry to take action. They've already brought this upon themselves.

After that, several more demons were discovered.

After thoroughly investigating the people of Hunyuan City, they went to Xuanwu City.

This is the source of all the demons.

There is also a very important problem.

They didn't know whether the Xiao Yi had possessed a person from a secret realm or had already appeared on the Xuanling Continent.

If they had been there earlier, their decision to come out of the Xuanwu Secret Realm might have been a coordinated attack from within.

The most likely place for the Xiao Yi to reside is Xuanwu City.

After arriving in Xuanwu City, the two split up to search for Xiao Yi's whereabouts as quickly as possible.

While she was engrossed in her search, Ye Yuan suddenly woke up.

He appeared beside her in a flash.

Feng Ning looked at him in surprise, "You recovered so quickly?"

Ye Yuan nodded. "It has recovered a little."

Feng Ning didn't care how much he meant by "a little".

Ye Yuan thought for a moment and said, "If I remember correctly, you fell into the river outside Xuanwu City and were then taken back by a pack of wolves."

Feng Ning searched her memory, but it was very vague.

Anyway, from the time she could remember, she had been with a pack of wolves, and as for whether there was a river or not, she couldn't remember clearly.

"How did you know?"

Ye Yuan looked towards the direction outside the city, "When I was sealed away, I was also thrown into the river. It was you who fell in and woke me up. After I woke up, I sent you into the river so that you could live."

Feng Ning's eyes widened. "So you mean I saved you, and then you saved me?"

Ye Yuan nodded, "Yes."

Feng Ning's mind raced, and she quickly figured out the intricacies of the situation.

"Later, when I ran into you in Xuanwu City after I escaped, was it also because you came specifically to find me?"

"Yes."

"Then why did you come to me? And why did you offer to help me?"
