They arrived at Jiuling City in just a few hours, at the crack of dawn.

Feng Ning changed into ordinary makeup and clothes, and when she turned around, she saw Ye Yuan's indifferent expression.

"Could you please change your clothes? You'll stand out too much if you go in like this."

"Isn't this pretty?"

"It's because it's so beautiful! If you go in like that, it's impossible not to attract attention, right?"

Ye Yuan continued walking forward, seemingly oblivious to the fact that it looked good.

They then went directly into the city.

Feng Ning was also helpless, but fortunately, after they entered the city, apart from being investigated by others, they did not cause too much trouble.

She breathed a sigh of relief, inquired about the Liu family in Jiuling City, and then headed in that direction.

What are you going to do?

Feng Ning sighed, "Of course, we should nip bad news in the bud."

Then, he recounted in detail how Gu Wenlang had threatened them with Liu Yuanxiu's mother.

Ye Yuan chuckled lightly, "You're really useless."

Feng Ning rolled her eyes in anger, not wanting to pay any attention to him, and turned to leave.

Ye Yuan simply followed behind without saying anything.

The two stopped when they reached a spot not far from the Liu family's house.

Knowing that she possessed a three-elemental talent, Feng Ning didn't hide it and directly used the Netherworld Ghost Manual.

She slightly raised her fingertips, and many small black shadows appeared in her hand.

"Qingsi, go find Liu Yuanxiu's mother."

One by one, small shadows leaped out of her hands and rushed towards the Liu family's house.

Like a wisp of smoke, a strand of hair, it catches you completely off guard.

Some even entered the underworld by following someone else's shadow, doing so openly and honestly, making it impossible to guard against.

Before long, several young boys came running back to report the news.

These strands of hair were like her eyes. If her divine sense swept into them, they would easily be detected by the powerful beings inside. However, if a single hair drifted in, it would not attract any attention.

Feng Ning was delighted to receive the message.

But she soon became conflicted again. She had heard Liu Yuanxiu say that his family also had a Nascent Soul expert in charge. How could she bring the person out quietly?

Seeing his hesitation, Ye Yuan asked, "Didn't you find anyone?"

"I found her, but how can I bring her out quietly?"

"I can pass on your message."

Feng Ning's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Sure, but whether she's willing to believe you is none of my business."

"It's okay, you just need to send the message in."

She immediately took out paper and pen to write a letter, and without saying much, told her that someone was threatening Liu Yuanxiu with her life.

Feng Ning placed a small piece of green silk on his shoulder. "It's green silk; it can help you find your way."

Ye Yuan took the letter and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Once inside, Xiao Qingsi, a tiny little person about the size of a little finger, pointed the way for him, and looked extremely cute.

Ye Yuan was speechless. "She used such a good dark-type talent so poorly. It's really something."

Xiao Qingsi immediately put her hands on her hips, looking quite angry.

Ye Yuan tapped it on the head. "I'm telling you, you're still not convinced, are you? Look at you, as weak as a leaf, what can you do to help her?"

Little Green Silk was still unconvinced, but since she didn't have a mouth, she couldn't curse anyone.

She could only turn away, refusing to look at him.

Ye Yuan smiled and stopped teasing it; he had already reached his destination.

He went directly into Liu Yuanxiu's mother's courtyard.

Liu Yuanxiu's mother was sitting in the courtyard drinking tea, with a maid standing beside her.

He knocked the maid unconscious with a wave of his hand before going inside.

Liu Yuanxiu's mother was named Qi Cuihe, a young lady from a small family in Jiuling City. It was a marriage alliance.

She noticed that the maid had been knocked unconscious and immediately became alert.

"Who is it? Come out!"

Ye Yuan enveloped himself in a cloud of white mist and casually tossed the letter in front of her.

"Who are you?" she asked Ye Yuan warily.

"Read the letter."

Qi Cuihe hesitated for a long time, knowing that he couldn't beat the person in front of him, so he might as well take a look at what was written in the letter.

She opened it and immediately stared in shock, "How could this be? Did Yuan Xiu offend someone?"

Ye Yuan didn't answer, but asked, "If you're leaving now, go pack your things. Someone will be waiting for you outside."

Qi Cuihe hesitated for a long time, then shook her head. "I can't leave here. This is my home. Where do you want me to go?"

Ye Yuan frowned. "What about your son? If you're not safe, he'll always be threatened."

Qi Cuihe bit her lip, looking very hesitant.

"But what about my husband? If I leave, won't he be in even greater danger?"

As she spoke, as if she had made up her mind, she said, "I can't leave. If I leave, my master will be in danger. As for Yuan Xiu... he is in the Tianxuan Sect now. I believe the sect will protect him."

After hearing her words, Ye Yuan destroyed the letter and disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.

As Qi Cuihe watched him disappear from the spot, she felt as if a piece of her heart had been emptied.

She clutched her chest, feeling a vague discomfort in her body.

Just as Ye Yuan left, the maid who had been knocked unconscious woke up.

After realizing what was happening, they quickly checked on Qi Cuihe's condition.

"Madam, are you alright? How did I faint?"

Qi Cuihe shook her head. "I'm fine."

"Madam, did something happen just now? Why do you look so pale?"

"Xiao Hong, someone is threatening Yuan Xiu with my life. Yuan Xiu sent a message telling me to leave as soon as possible. What should I do?"

Xiao Hong was also stunned, but after she came to her senses, she quickly pulled her towards the room, "Madam, what are you still hesitating for? Hurry up and pack your things and let's go."

Qi Cuihe had been following her inside, but upon hearing her words, he immediately stopped in his tracks.

"No! What will happen to the master if I leave?"

Xiao Hong's eyes were red. "Madam! Master treated you like that, how can you still be thinking about him? You should think about the young master. Let's go quickly."

Qi Cuihe shook her head and took a step back. "No, I won't leave. No matter what he did, I still love him. We've been husband and wife for a day. How can I leave him alone?"

Xiao Hong looked at her in shock, "Madam, what about the young master? Are you just going to watch someone threaten him and make him do things he doesn't like?"

Qi Cuihe thought for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Impossible. He is a disciple of the Tianxuan Sect, so naturally the Tianxuan Sect will protect him. No one can harm him. It is Master who needs me more."
