He's spoiled rotten; that wolf cub knows how to flirt and be affectionate.

Qu Yi is currently on horseback, the horse's hooves pounding across the grass, leaving hoofprints in its wake.

She didn't leave without a reason.

She wasn't sure if she could achieve her goal on this trip, and the destination was quite far away. Since Lu Boyu wasn't in good health, she didn't plan to take him along.

Lu Baiyu, sulking in his inn: I'm perfectly healthy!!

Pacing anxiously back and forth in the room, Lu Baiyu finally stopped after a short while, sat back down in his chair, and tapped his knuckles on the mahogany table a few times, producing hollow sounds.

Yu Ming stood respectfully to one side, awaiting his master's instructions.

The tightly closed door opened, and Yu Ming came out of the room, not returning until midnight.

It was late at night, but Lu Baiyu was still not resting. He was wearing a white nightgown and sitting on a soft couch covered with a fox fur blanket. His expression was calm and unfathomable.

"master."

The door opened, and a figure slipped in, kneeling on one knee.

It was Yu Ming who had been out all day.

"How is it?" Lu Baiyu asked.

"The young lady went southwest, changed three horses, and continued forward without resting."

"Southwest?" Lu Baiyu's thin lips parted slightly, his brows furrowing. "The Jing River? What was she doing there?"

"I have sent someone to follow him, and they will send back any news as soon as possible."

"Hmm, using the warbler is too slow, let them use the hawk."

"Yes."

Yu Ming was already used to Lu Baiyu's peculiar attitude towards Qu Yi, so he wasn't surprised at all that Qu Ying was being deployed at this time.

Qu Yi was unaware that someone had been following her. She changed horses several times to speed up her journey, hoping to resolve the situation as soon as possible.

She came here for a girl.

I once heard that the wandering knight mention that he had seen a girl who was exceptionally talented. Of course, this did not mean that she was suited for martial arts, but rather that she had the ability to communicate with the heavens and earth.

There is a tribe on the banks of the Jing River called the Jing River tribe.

The Jinghe tribe produces a holy woman every hundred years.

Legend has it that the Holy Maiden possesses extraordinary abilities, knowing the past and future, and foreseeing fortune and misfortune.

This wandering knight was seriously injured years ago and went down the Jing River. He was rescued by a girl and learned about her ordeal while he was recuperating.

She was one of the most talented children in the tribe and had a good chance of winning the selection of the Holy Maiden. However, her parents died mysteriously overnight, and then her relatives suffered one accident after another, but she was the only one who was safe and sound.

The people labeled her a jinx, and if the clan leader hadn't insisted on keeping her, she probably would have been thrown out by the clan long ago.

However, she could only live on the very edge of the Jing River and could not get too close to her tribe.

Qu Yi's purpose in coming here was to see this girl.

In her memory, Yin Yuanqing deceived the original owner's feelings for his beloved Jiang Yufu. Later, the original owner angrily confronted him, and Jiang Yufu was heartbroken. Yin Yuanqing then sent someone to kill the original owner.

Since the original owner's death was caused by these two people, then dealing with these two people will suffice.

Yin Yuanqing is easy to deal with; just beat him to death. She didn't poison him last time, but later someone kindly poisoned him, which saved her some trouble.

As the future head of the Star Gazing Pavilion, Jiang Yufu is rumored to be extremely talented. Her poor health is due to practicing the Star Gazing Pavilion's "Supreme Techniques," and the more powerful she becomes, the worse her health deteriorates.

Jiang Yufu has the ability to foresee crises, but Qu Yi is afraid that it will be too difficult to take action.

In that case, find someone to replace her so that she is no longer the first choice for the future leader of the pavilion.

She wanted to see just how much love Yin Yuanqing still had after losing this identity.
