After creating a huge commotion with Crown Prince Hong, Ye Lingyue told Lan Cai'er about the incident.
Lan Cai'er seed inevitably worried upon hearing this.
"Ling Yue, Crown Prince Hong is a nitpicker; you better be careful. If he really wants to play dirty, you'll be in danger."
Lan Cai'er had clashed with Crown Prince Hong before and suffered losses.
Being a high-ranking Crown Prince, if he truly wanted to marry Ye Lingyue, the Lan Residence wouldn't have a way out.
"I think there's only one way to deter Crown Prince Hong once and for all, and that's to have your father arrange a marriage for you soon. I think the Sixth Prince isn't bad, and neither is Heir Qinghai."
For so reason, Lan Cai'er, seemingly out of nowhere, blurted this out.
As long as Ye Lingyue's engagent is set, even if marriage is delayed, Crown Prince Hong wouldn't dare to harm soone already betrothed.
"Sister, what nonsense are you talking about?" Ye Lingyue chuckled.
Lan Cai'er's personality was so much like General Lan's; both father and daughter possessed the sa bizarre logic.
"You don't like either of these two? Actually, Prince Feng is also a good choice, only that he's a bit frail, plus he's from Beiqing. If you marry him, you'll have to move to Beiqing," Lan Cai'er said with a frown.
If Ye Lingyue moved to Beiqing, she would be unbearably bored.
As soon as Prince Feng's na was ntioned, Ye Lingyue fell silent.
Recalling Prince Feng's atypical behavior during the day, Ye Lingyue beca sowhat disturbed.
After what had happened, she felt ashad to face Prince Feng anyti soon.
Lan Cai'er kept chattering on while Ye Lingyue was lost in her thoughts.
Fortunately, the following day, Sword Slave quickly made a second visit to the Imperial Hospital, informing Ye Lingyue that Prince Feng's health had recovered, though he remained slightly weak. He would need to recuperate quietly at the Hot Spring Palace and could not be disturbed for so ti.
Relieved upon hearing this, Ye Lingyue also had Sword Slave take back several bottles of nourishing Elixir Pills.
"Miss Ye, that day, it was Sword Slave who was impulsive." Before leaving, Sword Slave awkwardly scratched his head; it seed he had more to say, but after thinking it over, he ultimately kept quiet and strode out.
After several days of contemplation, Ye Lingyue finally decided to join the He Brothers and head to the Taiyi Secret Realm.
After all, Hong ng Heaven was very important to her, and to maintain it, obtaining the Sky Bright Crystal was essential.
Ye Lingyue arranged the affairs of the Imperial Hospital and Ghost Sect, then told the people of the Lan Residence that she would be traveling far away with Master Long Yu to search for several rare dicinal herbs.
Given that Master Long Yu was also about to go into seclusion to refine a new Elixir, no one would suspect the truth of Ye Lingyue's words.
Everything being arranged, Ye Lingyue bought several fine silk robes and disguised herself as Thirteenth Young Master before heading to the Treasure Cave.
Knowing that Ye Lingyue was willing to accompany them to the Taiyi Secret Realm, the He Brothers were exceedingly delighted and decided to set out imdiately.
The ancient Taiyi Sect's Taiyi Secret Realm was located in the Kuocang Mountain Range, a long journey away, and the three would need to travel via flying beasts.
Upon looking over her shoulders, on the right sat Little Zhiyo, and on the left stood Little Wuya.
One looked fluffy and incredibly adorable, and the other, albeit scruffy and awkwardly cute.
Seeing those two small beasts, Boss He and Third Brother He couldn't help but mutter to themselves.
This trip to the Taiyi Secret Realm was ant to be an adventure, yet Ye Lingyue seed more like she was setting out for a leisurely journey, especially with those two small beasts whose combat abilities appeared quite ordinary. Bringing them to the secret realm might beco a liability.
"Thirteenth Young Master, you're here; now we can depart," Boss He said, and with a gesture, Ye Lingyue felt several long cries emit from the sky.
Three Sixth Rank Red Electric Eagles landed on the ground.
The Taiyi Secret Realm is far too remote; travelling on foot would take at least half a year, but with Flying Beasts, it would only take ten days.
These Red Electric Eagles, living high above in the clouds, could freely move through the layers and had a lightning-shaped mark on their foreheads. With their fastest speed covering a thousand miles a day, they are superb flying creatures.
"These Red Electric Eagles, having grown up with us three brothers, if Thirteenth Young Master wishes, you can ride the one belonging to my second brother, but be cautious as his Red Electric Eagle is quite temperantal," Boss He, worried that Ye Lingyue didn't have a Flying Beast, thoughtfully prepared one.
After the strange weather in Hong ng Heaven, both Little Zhiyo and Little Wuya stayed by Ye Lingyue's side. Seeing those massive creatures, several tis larger than themselves, Little Wuya shook its fur and glanced at the Red Electric Eagle in front of it.
The proudly held head of the initially defiant Red Electric Eagle suddenly seed disdainful upon seeing Little Wuya.
This ugly and unremarkable little thing, how could it even be called a bird?
Being so obviously discriminated against, Little Wuya was displeased.
It suddenly opened its mouth, emitting a series of calls.
Feeling an invisible pressure, the Lightning Eagle imdiately lowered its head and wings, lay on the ground, and didn't make a sound.
The He Brothers were stunned, but Ye Lingyue just smiled, mounted the Red Electric Eagle, and the three of them slowly ascended into the night sky, heading west.
After days of flying, the trio had already left the borders of Daxia.
"Fly one more day and night, and we'll reach Kuocang Mountain. It's unexpected; Thirteenth Young Master can really endure hardships," Boss He praised, having learned from Second Brother He that Ye Lingyue was a woman, and possibly a close companion of Prince Feng.
He'd thought that traveling day and night would exhaust her, but over these few days, sharing als and lodgings with Boss He and Second Brother He, she never complained once.
Both old n, mbers of the Miao Shou Kong Kong Thief Sect, were used to roughing it with their ager als and slept outdoors often; ordinary people could hardly withstand such conditions. Thus, Ye Lingyue's endurance and hardiness won their favor.
The two old n were gradually growing fond of this young yet resolute girl.
While they were speaking, Ye Lingyue suddenly frowned.
"Be careful, gentlen."
"What?" Boss He imdiately commanded the Red Electric Eagle to slow down.
Among the three, Ye Lingyue was the only Alchemist.
Unlike Martial Artists, an Alchemist's spiritual power could be used for attack and defense, and also for scouting ahead.
This was why this journey to the Taiyi Secret Realm with Boss He and Third Brother He inevitably required the help of an Alchemist.
With Ye Lingyue's skills as a Five Rank Alchemist, her spiritual power could scout several miles ahead.
"There's sothing unusual ahead," Ye Lingyue looked forward.
It was now dusk, the sun was slowly setting beyond the horizon, and the sky bore clouds stained blood-red by the remaining sunlight.
