After transmigrating into the book, I became the little sun of the crazy villain.

Fortunately, these evil spirits did not intend to stay long. On the day they left, the monsters of the Southern Forest rejoiced.

Even the wolves and sheep, natural enemies, embraced each other and wept with joy.

God!

They're finally gone!

Standing on the spirit boat, Yun Zhao sighed, "These demon beasts are truly loyal and righteous. They cried so sadly after we left."

other people:"……"

Are you sure you're sad?

Bai Lingxiao asked, somewhat puzzled, "By the way, we've been gone for so long, why hasn't anyone looked for us?"

Logically speaking, given Hu Guichen's habit of asking every two or three days, Master Guiyuan should have discovered that they had run away from home.

Yun Zhao and Qi Yan exchanged a glance, and she smiled mysteriously, "It's a secret!"

At the same time, Master Guiyuan looked at Mu Qianqian and Lin Shu, who were lounging in his study, and said helplessly, "I won't tell Sect Master Hu. You two can go back."

The two verbally agreed, but in reality they still clung to Master Guiyuan, afraid that he would send a message to Hu Guichen when they weren't paying attention.

"Sect Master," Mu Qianqian said with a smile, "of course we trust you, but we don't want to leave because we want to hear your teachings."

Lin Shu chimed in, "Me too."

Master Guiyuan: "..."

If you're so tough, then don't sleep on the floor in my room and spy on me tonight!

"Ugh."

Just, quite helpless.

Master Guiyuan resigned himself to his fate and let them do whatever they wanted.

Outside the study, Song Zhiyuan listened to the whole thing, then turned and quietly left.

When Xue Huairui saw Song Zhiyuan return, she asked, "Senior brother, weren't you going to find Master? Why are you back so soon?"

“Mu Qianqian and Lin Shu are in Master’s study, they must be asking him for advice,” Song Zhiyuan said. “I won’t disturb them, I’ll just send a message to Master.”

“Okay,” Xue Huairui said obediently, “Shall we set off now?”

Seeing Song Zhiyuan nod, Xue Huairui put the packed bundle into her storage bag and followed behind Song Zhiyuan as the two left Qingyun Sect.

When we arrived at the Demon-Slaying City, there was a long queue at the city gate. Because some demons could transform into human form and sneak into the city, the guards at the city gate were quite strict.

Yun Zhao quietly tugged at Qi Yan's sleeve, and Qi Yan gave her a reassuring look. Yun Zhao understood and called the others to line up.

They all disguised themselves to avoid being seen by acquaintances.

Although it's unlikely you'll run into someone you know, it's always good to be prepared.

Yun Zhao and the others waited in line, bored. On the other side of the city gate of Demon-Slaying City, a middle-aged man stood there, as if waiting for someone.

"Manager Song, you've been standing for a while, why don't you sit down and rest?"

The guards at the city gate.

Manager Song waved his hand in refusal, "Thank you, young man, but my young master should be arriving soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Zhiyuan and Xue Huairui appeared before him, and he hurriedly went to greet them, "Young Master."

Song Zhiyuan called out "Manager Song" and introduced Xue Huairui to him.

Manager Song said respectfully, "Greetings, Miss Xue. I am the manager of the Song family."

Xue Huairui greeted him and then stood silently next to Song Zhiyuan, looking somewhat shy.

Song Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Manager Song, let's go back."

Manager Song exclaimed "Yes!" and called for the carriage that had been prepared in advance to come over. Song Zhiyuan pulled Xue Huairui up, and the carriage slowly drove into the city.

A person in line nearby couldn't help but ask, "Hey brother, why aren't they queuing? The guards aren't doing anything about it. What if they're demons?"

The person he asked curled his lip: "You don't even recognize this guy? He's the young master of the Song family in Demon-Slaying City. Who would dare make the young master of the Song family stand in line? And which demon would dare to impersonate him?"

"Too."

They have no power or influence, so they should just obediently wait in line.

Xue Huairui curiously looked around the streets of Demon-Slaying City from inside the carriage. Unlike other cities, every so often there was an ancient mirror tied to a pole along the road.

She asked curiously, "Senior brother, what are those mirrors for? Are they for checking your appearance?"

Song Zhiyuan couldn't help but chuckle, "Of course not, that's the Demon-Revealing Mirror, a substitute for the Demon-Discerning Mirror. It can detect demonic energy, but it can only detect demons with low cultivation levels."

Xue Huairui suddenly realized.

"Wouldn't it be impossible to spot a demon with high cultivation levels if they managed to blend into the city?"

"Not so," Gu Dinghan said with an air of profound mystery. "Even if they manage to sneak in and evade the screening mirror, the Demon-Slaying City sends people to thoroughly investigate every so often. Very few demons can escape the inspection of powerful beings."

Yun Zhao nodded. "I see."

However, Qi Yan has a secret technique to conceal his aura, so there's no need to worry about that.

They found an inn in the city and stayed there, planning to rest for the night and talk about it the next day.

We ate dinner in the inn's lobby, and while we were eating, I overheard some gossip about the Demon-Slaying City.

For example, the head of the Song family took another concubine; the fourth young master of the He family died, and the He family was furious and was searching for the murderer; the young master of the Tong family was critically ill, and the head of the Tong family sent people to organize a marriage proposal, hoping to try to bring good luck to the young master...

Yun Zhao listened with great interest and even ate an extra bowl of rice.

They waited until the lobby was empty before returning to their rooms. Yun Zhao and Xiao Tong's rooms were next to each other, and she watched as Xiao Tong slammed straight into the door.

She quickly grabbed the child, "Xiaotong, what's wrong with you? Why are you so distracted?"

Xiao Tong glanced at her, rubbed her temples, and said, "Thank you, Senior Sister Zhao Zhao. I'm fine. I probably didn't rest well last night."

Yun Zhao let go of her hand with concern, "Then you should get some rest early tonight."

The boy agreed, opened the door, and went inside.

After returning to her room, Yun Zhao did not rest, but instead took out her notebook and began to write and draw.

According to the plot, an old nanny who served Qi Yan's mother back then is still alive. By chance, she met Qi Yan and told him the truth about what happened back then.

Qi Yan was originally only focused on developing his own power because of his mother, and he showed some leniency when he clashed with Song Zhiyuan.

But after learning that his mother had not interfered in Song Zhiyuan's parents' marriage, but was tricked into marriage by Song's father, and that there were other reasons for Song's mother's divorce and death, he went completely mad and targeted Song Zhiyuan.

The mother was innocently deceived, maliciously slandered, and even murdered, leaving her mentally impaired and confused.

This also led to him being called a "bastard" from birth, being bullied and insulted, and living in a dark and hopeless dungeon...

If Qi Yan doesn't turn evil, it would be a disservice to all the injustices he suffered!

Yun Zhao felt sorry for Qi Yan.

"Host, you feel sorry for him, does that mean you've fallen in love with him?"

“No,” Yun Zhao said, somewhat puzzled. “Is there any causal connection between the two? Does feeling sorry for someone mean you have to like them?”

The system froze. "Isn't there a saying that feeling sorry for someone is the beginning of falling in love with them?"

Yun Zhao thought for a moment, "But Qi Yan is so miserable, any normal person would feel sorry for what he has gone through, right?"
