Your Highness, please stop chasing me.

Mu Xue suddenly looked at Cang Lin with a serious expression and said, "Uncle, come here, I want to show you something."

Seeing Mu Xue's serious expression, Cang Lin knew the situation was serious. He quickly went to Mu Xue's side and asked, "What's going on?"

Mu Xue slowly raised her left hand and placed it in front of Cang Lin. Before she could speak, Cang Lin had already grabbed her hand.

Cang Lin stared at Mu Xue in shock, asking incredulously, "How did this Panlong Ring end up with you???"

Seeing Cang Lin so agitated, Kang Mama looked at Mu Xue with some concern.

Mu Xue gave him a reassuring look and said to Granny Kang, "Granny, you should go back to your room and rest. I remember everything you said, and I will take good care of myself. Don't worry about anything and just rest."

Seeing Mu Xue nod, Kang Mama had no choice but to stand up and bow, saying, "Then this old servant will take her room."

After Granny Kang had walked away, Mu Xue spoke up, "This was left behind by my mother."

Upon hearing that Shen Wan had stayed behind, Cang Lin gradually calmed down.

He nodded knowingly and said, "It really is with your sister. Since she left it for you, keep it safe. With this ring and the Vast Expanse Technique complementing each other, you'll have a great time using it."

"Uncle, don't you plan to take it back?" Mu Xue asked.

This statement indicates that she already knows whose it is.

Cang Lin shook his head, released Mu Xue's hand, and said with relief, "This is something my elder brother left for my elder sister, so it belongs to her. Now that she's leaving it to you, it's yours. Besides, this ring is also a token of my status as the Lord of the Demon City. The Demon City will be yours sooner or later. This is perfect, it's all rightfully yours!"

"What? For me? That won't do!" Mu Xue was shocked. This was actually from Shanghai. She hurriedly tried to take it off, but no matter what she did, she couldn't get it off.

Seeing that her fingers were red from shaking, Cang Lin quickly slapped her hand away and said, "Are you crazy? Don't you want your own fingers anymore?"

"Why can't I take it off???" Mu Xue said anxiously.

"Legend has it that the Dragon Ring and the Vast Technique are the essence of all things in heaven and earth, and are truly magical. It seems that you have been chosen to be their master. What do you want to do with them?" Cang Lin asked.

“But this is a token from Shanghai, it must be very valuable, I have to return it to you!” Mu Xue said.

"Little Xuexue, this is indeed a token from Shanghai, but it was also left to you by your older sister, so it's yours," Cang Lin said without any room for argument.

"Isn't this a bad idea?" Mu Xue said with difficulty.

“Big Brother came to Xiyu Kingdom back then for Sister’s sake. He must have had his reasons for leaving this ring for her. So, Little Xuexue, just accept it.” Cang Lin said, patting Mu Xue’s head.

Mu Xue wasn't one to be difficult, so since she couldn't take it off anyway, she decided to accept it.

She nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll keep it with me and return it to you when I'm able to pick it."

Cang Lin smiled but didn't say anything. He had originally planned to bring Mu Xue to Shanghai to take over his position anyway.

Is this also Cang Feng's intention? Is this also the will of Heaven?

"You don't need to feel burdened by what your sister left for you and what I gave you; just accept it with peace of mind," Cang Lin said.

Mu Xue nodded. She suddenly realized that the ring was quite magical, as it could actually help her release her martial arts power, which she couldn't release externally yet. She asked, "Uncle, is this ring very famous? Won't many people recognize it and try to steal it?"

Hearing Mu Xue's question, Cang Lin chuckled and said, "Naturally, only the people of Shanghai are most familiar with the token of my Shanghai. Outsiders only know it by its name. There are very few people who can actually recognize it. Besides, this ring has been missing for nearly twenty years. There are hardly any people left who recognize it."

Mu Xue was relieved. She couldn't take it off now. If it were still a treasure that everyone recognized, she would be hunted down every day!

Cang Lin saw through her little scheme, smiled, and said nothing.

Mu Xue clapped her hands and said to Cang Lin, "Ren Yuan isn't here, so I'll have Ye Yi accompany me to the Mu residence. Uncle, aren't you going to deal with matters in Shanghai? You can go and do your thing!"

When Mu Xue and Ye Yi arrived at the Mu residence, it was already an hour later.

Mu An and others waited at the gate and immediately went to greet Mu Xue when they saw her.

He bowed respectfully and said, "Master Gu, there is news."

Mu Xue nodded and said, "Lead the way."

Yoruichi asked in a low voice, "Master Ancient Physician, isn't this news coming too fast? We weren't even allowed to leave the mountain yesterday, and now we have news?"

“It’s not surprising, this news must have been spread from the Mu family.” Mu Xue said with certainty, and Ye Yi suddenly realized what was going on.

He looked at Mu Xue in disbelief and said in a low voice, "Could it be that there are people from the Southern Frontier in the Mu family?"

“Didn’t I tell you? The people who cast the curse couldn’t be too far away, but they should have accomplices,” Mu Xue said.

"Them? The Ancient Physician already knows who they are?" Yoruichi asked in surprise.

"General Mu should already know who it is, but he doesn't know what the purpose of the person behind it is that they called us here," Mu Xue explained.

Mu Xue didn't lower her voice; she was saying this to Mu An as well.

Upon hearing Mu Xue's words, Mu An was greatly surprised. This ancient physician was indeed insightful.

Ye Yi understood, and asked Mu An, "Steward Mu, has the General placed anyone under guard?"

Mu An respectfully replied, "Reporting to Lord Ye, the master did not make any move to alert the enemy; he simply sent people to keep a close watch on them."

Ye nodded, then asked, "How is Young Master Mu's health?"

When Mu An mentioned Mu Feng, his face was relaxed. He cupped his hands and said to Mu Xue, "Thanks to the ancient physician's miraculous healing, my young master looks much better and was able to get up and eat on his own this morning."

"That's good." Ye Yi thought to herself, Miss Mu's medical skills are indeed amazing.

When Mu Xue and Ye Yi arrived at Mu Qinghe's study under Mu An's guidance, they suddenly heard an angry shout coming from inside.

"This is outrageous!" Mu Qinghe's voice rang out next.

Mu An glanced at Mu Xue and Ye Yi, and said, "Perhaps it's news from the capital."

Yoruichi was a close confidant of the Regent, so it was alright for him to know the news from the capital.

Seeing that there was no movement in the study, Mu An carefully stepped forward, knocked on the door and said, "Master, Doctor Gu and Master Ye have arrived."

Soon footsteps were heard, and the study door was opened.

Mu Xue looked at Mu Qinghe, who appeared at the door. His face was still contorted with rage, making him look somewhat frightening.

This was the first time Mu Xue had ever seen Mu Qinghe so angry.

For a moment, she was in a daze.
