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

Duan Menghua jumped up excitedly, "Great! We've finally broken through! Let's hurry back, I need to find her!"

Liu Yuanxiu quickly stepped forward, "Let's go together."

Yao Feibai stopped Liu Yuanxiu, saying, "You can't go."

"Why?" Liu Yuanxiu asked, somewhat displeased.

“Gu Wenlang and his group have wicked intentions. If we escape, they will naturally not let it go. If they can’t catch us, they will target the people around us. They can’t target the people around us, but you are different. You are a citizen of the Holy Feather Kingdom. Don’t forget that they threatened you with your mother before.”

Liu Yuanxiu's expression turned somewhat grim. "Then I'll go back."

Duan Menghua nodded. "Go back now. If anything happens, remember to let us know."

"it is good."

Liu Yuanxiu nodded and left, his expression full of anxiety.

Mother, please don't let anything happen to you. If something happens to you, I will never be able to forgive myself for the rest of my life.

In the end, only Duan Menghua and Yao Feibai remained and went back the way they came.

The flying artifact can fly automatically. The destination has been set and cannot be changed halfway. They have no choice but to let the flying artifact fly back on its own.

The two of them jumped off halfway and ran back on their swords.

Feng Ning and Ye Yuan flew on their swords and used an acceleration formation, making them extremely fast.

Three days later, the four met.

Duan Menghua was so angry when she saw her that she gritted her teeth and took out her nine-section whip, cracking it loudly.

"Feng Ning! Do you even consider me a friend anymore? You told us to run away on our own when we were in danger. Are you looking down on me?"

Yao Feibai's expression was equally unpleasant.

Feng Ning looked at them helplessly, "I knew the formation couldn't stop you."

Ye Yuan stepped forward and shielded the two behind him, his cold gaze sweeping over them, instantly immobilizing them.

A powerful pressure forced the two of them to the ground.

Feng Ning was startled and grabbed Ye Yuan's arm, "No, no, no, this is one of our own."

Ye Yuan's expression was icy. "She wants to make a move."

Feng Ning looked at Duan Menghua, then at the nine-section whip, and said, "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding."

Ye Yuan looked at her with some skepticism, but after seeing her serious expression, he withdrew his aura.

Feng Ning quickly ran over and helped the two of them up. "Sorry, he was a little nervous."

Duan Menghua rubbed her aching shoulder, a hint of fear in her eyes, and asked softly, "Feng Ning, who is he?"

Yao Feibai patted the dirt off his clothes and looked at Ye Yuan across from him with some wariness.

Feng Ning thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out what their relationship was.

She glanced back at Ye Yuan and whispered, "His name is Ye Yuan, and he's... a friend of mine."

Duan Menghua shrank back. "Your friend is really strong, but he can't just resort to violence all the time. What a waste of such a good-looking guy."

Feng Ning smiled awkwardly, "He has a bad temper, don't be angry."

Then they took out ten array plates from their spatial storage, placing five in each person's hand. "These are acceleration arrays that can double the speed. Consider this my apology."

The two put the things away without saying anything more.

Ye Yuan's face darkened. "Didn't I?"

Feng Ning's lips twitched. "At your speed, I can't even catch up to you at twice the speed. Do you still need this?"

This thing is for escaping, okay? With your strength, if you were to actually fight someone, the other person would be the one needing to run for their life.

Ye Yuan stared at her without saying a word.

Helpless, Feng Ning could only take out five array plates and hand them to him. "Alright, alright, here you go. Don't be angry. Tell me if you want anything in the future, and I'll make it for you."

His expression softened somewhat when he heard that he could ask her for help anytime.

The other two don't seem to receive the same treatment as him.

Only then did Duan Menghua have time to ask about anything else.

Did they catch you? How did you escape?

Feng Ning nodded, "I caught up with them. I used an array to hold them off for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and that's when I ran into Ye Yuan. He saved me."

Duan Menghua breathed a sigh of relief, "Your friend is so strong, he should be fine."

After saying that, his expression turned serious again. "But you mustn't do that again next time. If there's any danger, we'll face it together. I don't believe they'll dare to do anything to me!"

Yao Feibai nodded, "We won't abandon our friends. If there's any danger, we'll fight together."

Feng Ning smiled and said, "In the end, it's because of me that you've been dragged down. How can I let you be in danger because of me?"

She asked with some confusion, "Where is Liu Yuanxiu?"

Duan Menghua said with a grin, "Oh, Yao Feibai said he should go home and check on his family. Gu Wenlang was able to threaten him with Liu Yuanxiu's mother, so who knows what extreme things he might do next."

Feng Ning frowned. "I had already been to Jiuling City before I came here, and I also met Liu Yuanxiu's mother."

"You went there? Then why didn't she come along?"

Feng Ning helplessly shrugged. "I don't know either. She only said she wanted to stay at home and be with her husband."

Duan Menghua didn't think there was anything wrong with it. "If they don't want to come, they don't have to. They are one of the four major families. Even if they are from a branch family, they should have an ancestor in charge. There shouldn't be any problems."

Everyone else shared the same opinion.

Ye Yuan suddenly spoke up, "There is a Nascent Soul stage cultivator in their family."

Yao Feibai nodded, "Then there's no problem."

Upon hearing him speak, Duan Menghua glanced at him, focused her mind, and tried to use her innate abilities.

As soon as I looked over, my eyes were stung painfully.

It felt as if something had slapped her in the sea of ​​consciousness, and the pain made her face turn pale.

Feng Ning was standing right in front of her. Seeing that she was about to fall, she quickly went up and helped her up.

"Duan Menghua, what's wrong?"

Yao Feibai was also a little nervous, "Are you alright?"

Nothing dangerous happened along the way, so how did this suddenly happen?

Duan Menghua clutched her head in anguish, remaining silent.

In a mansion thousands of miles away, a middle-aged man seemed to sense something and suddenly sat up.

"Damn it, someone come quick! Hua'er is in danger!"

Ye Yuan looked at Duan Menghua but said nothing.

He walked straight to Feng Ning's side, took her hand, and stood up. "She's alright."

Feng Ning looked at him suspiciously, "How did you know?"

Ye Yuan pursed his lips. "She just saw something she shouldn't have seen, and it backfired on her."

"What shouldn't I see?" she asked, even more puzzled.

The four of them were standing here just now, and Duan Menghua didn't even move her feet. How could she have had a chance to see anything else?

And it even backfired and turned into this?
