“I just need a few drops of blood. I won’t hurt you.” Yun Feng grabbed Little You Yan’s slippery body with both hands and spoke to it patiently and gently. Little You Yan struggled very violently and the sound it made was very rapid. Its expression that said “I don’t want to die” made Yun Feng too helpless.

“Ze Ran, come and collect the blood yourself. Be quick.” Yun Feng grabbed Little You Yan’s body tightly. “It’s constantly secreting liquid. I can’t hold it anymore!”

Ze Ran didn’t dare to delay any longer. His fighting energy immediately turned into an invisible blade and aimed at the side of Little You Yan’s tail. He slashed gently and a shallow wound appeared. Little You Yan, who had a wound, shivered and twisted even more fiercely. It looked at Ze Ran with its big watery eyes and opened its mouth, as if it wanted to bite him.

Ze Ran quickly took out a small bottle and put a few drops of blood in it. After about a dozen drops, Ze Ran quickly put away the bottle and said, “That’s enough!” Yun Feng originally wanted to let go, but Little You Yan in her hand turned around and bit her fiercely with its relatively sharp teeth. Yun Feng cried out in pain and loosened her hands. Little You Yan ran away and its body had already left the room quickly. Yun Feng looked up and saw that it was already gone.

“Is the wound alright? I’ll go get it back for you right now!” Ze Ran turned around and was about to chase after it, but Yun Feng shook her head. “You don’t have to chase after it. It’s not mine to begin with. It’s fine.”

“But…” Ze Ran was a bit guilty. Yun Feng chuckled. “I’m telling the truth. It just came to me by chance.”

Ze Ran looked at Yun Feng’s hand with a hint of heartache in his black eyes. He quickly walked over. “Are you alright? Will its bite cause any trouble?”

Little You Yan bit a crescent-shaped mark on Yun Feng’s hand. For Yun Feng, it was just a superficial wound. Seeing Ze Ran’s worried look, Yun Feng burst into laughter. “I’m not some delicate princess who can’t be hurt. It’s just a superficial wound.”

“But… you’re a girl.” Ze Ran said as he stared at the wound with his black eyes. “It’s never good to have scars.”

Yun Feng was helpless. “It’s fine. It’ll heal automatically. My body is already very different from before. You really don’t have to worry.”

Ze Ran looked up and finally compromised. “I’ll believe you if you say it’s fine.”

Yun Feng smiled. “It’s always good to help you out, or I’ll feel bad as a friend.”

Ze Ran’s lips moved slightly, but he didn’t say anything in the end. He only raised the corners of his mouth slightly with a complicated expression. “You’re right. It’s always good to be able to solve a burden. I can also focus on helping you.”

Yun Feng patted Ze Ran’s shoulder. “There are some things I’ll wait for you to tell me. As long as you’re willing to tell me, I’ll be your listener.”

Ze Ran was stunned. “Yun Feng, you…”

“Alright, your matter is settled. I can focus on preparing my plan next.” Yun Feng took a step back with a faint smile. Seeing that she had already changed the topic, Ze Ran nodded. She said, “I’ll go out of the city to prepare. I’ll come to find you when I come back. Then, you can spread the news.”

“It’s better if I go with you. It’ll be safer,” said Ze Ran. Yun Feng shook her head helplessly. “You need to be in the capital. If you’re discovered when you move with me, even if there are any clues, all our efforts will be in vain. Just wait for my news in the city. I need you to help me observe the movements of the royal family of the Chili Tribe and see if there will be any changes, especially the son of the relatives and the power behind him. Also, don’t let Yanran ruin anything.”

Ze Ran completely understood after hearing this. “Alright, I’ll help you do everything in the city. Be careful.”

The next day, Yun Feng left the capital. After putting on the Thousand Shadows Mask, she showed Ze Ran’s token and left the capital successfully and quickly. The guards at the gate were extremely respectful. Yun Feng counted the days. The Transformation Potion she gave Yanran could only last for four days at most. Yun Feng didn’t know if she had left the capital. If she still hadn’t left, she would be taking a risk.

A week later, Yun Feng prepared everything and returned to the capital. When she entered the capital again, she found that the inspection was obviously much stricter. The passage of the Chili clan was even more so. Luckily, Yun Feng had Ze Ran’s token. Even though it wasn’t too strict, she still didn’t relax.

“What happened in the capital?” Yun Feng asked in confusion. The guard smiled wryly. “Madam, you just came back. A few days ago, someone from the Qitun Tribe broke into the royal palace! That person from the Qitun Tribe was quite cunning and escaped forcibly. The king was enraged about this matter. The inspection is much stricter. Many brothers were implicated and punished.”

Yun Feng’s black eyes glittered. She had already thought of who the intruder of the Qitun Tribe was. Yanran had indeed taken a risky move. Luckily, she was as good as she said back then. She still had the ability to escape if she couldn’t beat them. Thinking of the layers of defense in the royal palace, Yun Feng smiled. Yanran would probably be discovered before she got far. Otherwise, even if she had the ability to escape, she wouldn’t be able to withstand the encirclement of so many masters and powerhouses.

Yun Feng returned to the yard where she used to live. As expected, Ze Ran’s people were waiting there. Seeing Yun Feng come back, the people waiting there were obviously relieved. Not long after she left, Ze Ran had already rushed over. Before Ze Ran said anything, Yun Feng said with a smile, “This trip went very smoothly. I’ve already arranged everything. Don’t worry.”

Ze Ran swallowed all the questions in his mind and smiled awkwardly. He knew that he was worrying too much. What could possibly happen to Yun Feng? Even if something happened, she had Mu Canghai and Ao Jin by her side and her contracted Magic Beasts. She would be fine.

“But something seems to have happened in the capital?”

Ze Ran nodded. “Yanran of the Qitun Tribe broke into the royal palace. Luckily, I took the initiative to chase after her at that time and deliberately slowed down so that she could escape. Will this disrupt your plan?” Yun Feng was very grateful when she heard this. “No, you did me a huge favor. If it were any other powerhouse, it would probably be a disaster. Yanran should be able to return to the Qitun Tribe safely. After she goes back, the Qitun Tribe and the Chaoling Tribe can only wait for the right time. Whether this situation can become chaotic or not depends on us.”

“However, the Qitun Tribe members are much more vigilant against outsiders. They’re even vigilant against me. Will it affect your plan?”
