The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

Are you really going to go see him?

The emperor's chest heaved as he spoke, his eyes reddening like the crimson of a crabapple in late spring.

His anger turned his pale face into a livid one, and the hidden aggression startled even Xiao Ba, who was engrossed in eating, causing him to look up.

Yun Yici had anticipated the emperor's reaction to the edict, but she had not expected it to be so intense.

She frowned slightly and looked at Wen Fuyue, Ning Tinglan, and Rong Xuan: "Master, Senior Brother, and Senior Zhujian, do you also think so?"

Wen Fuyue sighed softly and chose to be honest: "After hearing the whole story from Fellow Daoist Di Zhao, it was really hard not to feel resentment towards that person."

"However, whatever decision you make, as long as it's not something immoral or unethical, your senior brother and I will not stop you."

"We believe that once you make a choice, whether it's good or bad, you can bear all the consequences."

Yun Yici is no longer the little girl who needs their protection.

Zhu Jian honestly said, "That brat surnamed Shen took advantage of my vulnerability and offended me. I will definitely fight him when we meet."

"But don't worry, he didn't try to kill me that day, and I won't kill him either."

The implication was that even if Yun Yici didn't go to find Shen Huaichuan, she would still go to find him.

The emperor held his breath.

He endured a hundred years of suffering, with Shen Huaichuan, the culprit, accompanying Yun Yici day and night.

Even after they separated, Yun Yici still wanted to go find him.

The emperor decreed that he absolutely did not wish to see Shen Huaichuan.

Every time he saw that man, he would think of his own incompetence and humiliation.

He wished he could kill the other person with his own hands.

Yun Yici's inquiry into Wen Fuyue and the others' opinions was not intended to put pressure on the Emperor's decree, but rather to find a way to separate the two sides if no one was willing to accept Shen Huaichuan.

The emperor stood frozen in place, his voice choked with emotion. Reason told him that they had finally reunited, and he shouldn't go against Yun Yici's wishes.

But he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Even if he were to pretend, he couldn't fake being magnanimous.

Yun Yici was unwilling to force the emperor to express his opinion, so she went along with everyone else and said, "I understand."

"Actually, I wanted to contact Senior Shen and Yue Niang, firstly because of their century-long friendship, I couldn't leave them in the Ghost Realm unattended."

"Secondly, I have decided to take over as the acting sect leader of Lingwei Sect. Senior Shen is an elder of my sect, and I must go and bring him back."

Upon hearing this, Wen Fuyue, Ning Tinglan, and Rong Xuan stood up in surprise.

Ning Tinglan asked in astonishment, "Junior Sister, what do you mean by this?"

Yun Yici: "That's exactly what I said."

"Lingwei Sect is temporarily unable to open to the public for some reasons and would like to ask me to take charge of external affairs on their behalf."

“During my time practicing in the Lingwei Sect, I received guidance from the Lingwei Sect, which is why I took on this task.”

Rong Xuan was more worried: "Will my junior sister never come back?"

He felt a pang of sadness after asking the question. Mu Yunjian went to the demon realm and never returned.

I wonder how Wen Fuyue explained things to Headmaster Gu.

Rong Xuan was very worried that Mu Yunjian's identity would be exposed, making it difficult for him to return to Wangchen Peak openly and honestly.

Now that Yun Yici has left, Wen Fuyue, having settled her affairs, should also go into seclusion to seek a breakthrough opportunity.

From then on, only he and Ning Tinglan remained on Wangchen Peak.

Yun Yici said calmly, "No matter what my identity is, you will always be my master and senior brothers."

"After I find Senior Shen and Yue Niang, I will go to the Nanhua Sect to meet with Sect Leader Gu."

Gu Ruyi is a smart man, and Yun Yici believes that Gu Ruyi knows what kind of relationship with Lingwei Sect would be most beneficial to Nanhua Sect.

As long as one has enough authority and superior power, there is never a choice between two options in the world.

She wants them all.

The emperor listened to Yun Yici's words without saying a word, perhaps because her businesslike tone made him feel at ease.

It wasn't out of personal feelings, but because there were compelling reasons to do it; this realization gradually calmed his anger.

He calmed down and made a firm promise: "I will help you."

He will find a way to prove that he is more useful than Shen Huaichuan.

Wen Fuyue said with relief, "If there's anything your senior brother and I can do to help you, just let us know."

Yun Yici was deeply moved: "Thank you very much, Master, Senior Brother, and Senior Emperor's Decree."

After talking with Yun Yici for so long, everyone took their leave, remembering that she needed quiet time to recuperate.

Yun Yici recuperated in the Demon Palace for three days and finally fully recovered.

The lotus pattern on her forehead was also absorbed into the Lingwei Seal during the final lightning tribulation.

Three days later, Yun Yici deliberately sent Xiao Ba away and borrowed a spirit brush from Rong Xuan, intending to hand-draw any array that could find Shen Huaichuan.

With the improvement of her cultivation, the teleportation array was completed in one stroke.

The teleportation array's intricate runes were smooth and straight, radiating a pale golden hue full of power.

Yun Yici left a letter and, as he stepped into the formation, he didn't forget to use the Concealment Technique to hide his figure.

In order to avoid causing a disturbance if Shen Huaichuan suddenly appeared in a crowded place.

The magic circle lit up, and Yun Yici, having made all the necessary preparations the moment she was teleported, landed lightly and immediately took in her surroundings.

The sudden appearance of another presence beside them naturally did not escape the notice of Shen Huaichuan and Yue Niang.

The two of them simultaneously went on guard, preparing to make a move, but relaxed only when they sensed Yun Yici's familiar aura.

Yun Yici looked around and realized that Shen Huaichuan and the other person were not in the Ghost Realm Moon Maiden's shop that she was familiar with, but in an inn on the street.

Shen Huaichuan remained the same as always, but Yue Niang wore a mask.

Moon Lady said happily, "I was just discussing with Fellow Daoist Shen about going to the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons to find you, and I didn't expect you to come here."

Yun Yici asked in surprise, "How did you leave the Ghost Realm? Did the Netherworld Palace release you?"

Speaking of this, Yue Niang slapped her thigh with joy: "I have to thank Lord Yi for this."

“He didn’t leave the Book of Commandments with us. Later, the records about the Lingwei Sect mysteriously disappeared, and you were sent back into your own body.”

“In the past, we were hesitant to act rashly because we were afraid of violating the rules and regulations.

"Now that the Book of Commandments is completely blank, isn't that the best threat?"

On the day of the confrontation, Lord Yi came to retrieve the Book of Commandments, but Shen Huaichuan demanded that they be sent back to the human world in exchange, otherwise he would use the Mirror of Illumination to destroy the Book of Commandments.

Shen Huaichuan loathed Lord Yi. What gentlemanly conduct? He was already being kind by not killing Lord Yi.

The Netherworld Palace held out against them for two days before finally giving in and ordering Xiao Ji to send them to the human realm.

However, there is one requirement.

Moon Lady pointed to the mask on her face.

"Many of the people who have seen me are still alive, and I don't want my appearance to cause any trouble, so let's leave it at that for now."

Moon Maiden sighed softly; being able to return to the human world was already enough to make her happy.
