"En!"

Suddenly, Lin Wan'er seemed to realize that something was wrong. She snapped out of her stupor, opened her eyes and raised her head to look. She just so happened to meet Xiang Yun's eyes, containing a mocking, playful smile.

After staring blankly for a while, Lin Wan'er suddenly exclaimed.

She hurriedly let go and jumped out of Xiang Yun's embrace. As she sat up, she discovered that she was actually sleeping on the same bed as Xiang Yun!

For a moment, Lin Wan'er was like a frightened little rabbit. Her arms were crossed, and she was curled up into a ball on the bed. She looked both shy and scared. She looked really cute.

She quickly recalled what had happened yesterday. She suddenly remembered that after she saw Xiang Yun, she seemed to have cried herself to sleep. Naturally, it was Xiang Yun who had placed her on the bed.

Lin Wan'er's following words were barely audible, but judging from her expression, it was obvious that she wanted to say, "Why did you also crawl into bed?"

"Sigh, I don't want to go to bed either, but last night I covered you with a blanket, and you suddenly hugged me." Sigh, I didn't want to go to bed either, but last night I covered you, and you suddenly hugged me.

Xiang Yun was even purposely showing a sad expression!

"Ah!"

When Lin Wan'er heard this, she was immediately startled. That was because last night, she had indeed dreamed of Xiang Yun. In her dreams, she had found it difficult to control herself and had hugged Xiang Yun, calling him 'Your Highness' nonstop.

But I don't think I have taken off His Highness' clothes. Could it be that I have really done such a shameful thing in my sleep?

For a moment, Lin Wan'er's blus.h.i.+ng face was as red as a cloud of fire. She looked like she was about to bleed.

"I was drunk and messed around. Why are you still so dishonest after sleeping? I came last night to cover you with a blanket out of good intentions, who would have thought … Ai …"

At this moment, she couldn't stop thinking about what had happened in her dream. Had she really done it with the Crown Prince, and on her own initiative? But why couldn't he remember anything?

Xiang Yun was still unwilling to let her go as he grudgingly said, "Wan'er, you're really bad. Why were you so crazy last night? How could I have suffered so much? Now that my innocence has been taken away by you, what do you think?

Lin Wan'er was, after all, still an inexperienced girl. When she heard Xiang Yun's straightforward and naked words, how could she bear it? Finally, she shyly covered her ears as she kept mumbling to herself.

As she spoke, she quickly ran out of the bed, put on her shoes and prepared to leave.

"Aiyo, Wan'er, aren't you responsible for me anymore?" Xiang Yun smiled as he followed her down the bed, shouting out something behind her!

Hearing this, Lin Wan'er panicked and ran even faster.

"Wan-Er, if the servants outside see you running out in such a hurry, they will definitely know about it."

"Let's sneak out. There shouldn't be anyone coming this early."

"Alright!" Lin Wan'er nodded, keeping her head low.

Unexpectedly, when the door was pushed open, Old Liang, who was leading the way with a wine gourd in his hand, was followed by Butler Zhang San and guest elder Liu Hong.

The three of them had just stepped onto the bluestone staircase and arrived in front of the door of the chamber when the door opened. The two parties were separated by a doorstep and looked at each other, stunned!

Old Liang choked on the wine he just drank and began to cough. Zhang San and Liu Hong widened their eyes with faces full of astonishment!

Lin Wan'er placed her hands on the door, her face as lifeless as a statue. Xiang Yun, on the other hand, reacted the fastest as he shushed the three of them.

Zhang San and Liu Hong understood each other, exchanged a glance, and nodded their heads, pretending that they didn't see anything.

However, Old Liang, who had just swallowed a mouthful of wine, immediately shouted with a red face and a thick neck!

"Oh my G.o.d, Lady Wan'er, Your Highness, you woke up early. Why don't the three of us go back first and you two go back to sleep?"

Lin Wan'er's body quivered. She was so shy that she blushed. She lowered her head and said, "I'll prepare breakfast for the crown prince!"

With that, she ran out of the courtyard like a fugitive.

"Wan'er!" Xiang Yun wanted to stop her, but Lin Wan'er was unwilling to stay here any longer, so she ran even faster.

Old Liang didn't seem to mind and chuckled.

"I …" Xiang Yun was speechless. How could he have met such an old scoundrel like this? He couldn't even beat him, much less say anything.

"Alright, let's all come in and talk. You're disturbing Qing Meng so early in the morning, you guys really have nothing better to do."

Xiang Yun led the three into the room and walked towards the study table before sitting down on a bench. He knew that the three of them had definitely come to report on their actions yesterday.

"Reporting to Your Highness, last night, we had already investigated the City Lord's Mansion and captured more than a hundred of the thieves." Reporting to Your Highness, last night, we had already searched the City Lord's Mansion and captured more than a hundred of the thieves.

Afterwards, Liu Hong reported that in Lu Yongchang's mansion, there was actually a secret underground chamber. From it, he found more than ten low-grade cloud-type weapons, as well as over a thousand cloud crystals, and a batch of Cloud Beast Crystals.

Hearing that Lu Yongchang actually had such a treasure trove, Xiang Yun first revealed a look of surprise, but it was quickly relieved. It was not surprising for a Earth Cloud Peak expert to have such a collection.

Hearing the two's report, Xiang Yun did not give any more instructions. The old Liang took charge and ordered the two of them to immediately head to the vicinity of Silvermoon Forest and recall the people who had been searching for Xiang Yun, unaware that he had already returned to the estate.

With regards to Old Liang's orders, the two of them naturally did not have any objections as they immediately went to carry them out. Afterwards, Xiang Yun and Old Liang were the only ones left in the room.

"How is it? What's the situation inside the city?"

"It's a mess!" Old Liang only used three words to describe him.

He told Xiang Yun about the seven great sects of the righteous path, the three demonic sects, the four forbidden lands, and even the fact that he had never heard of the forces of the Pill G.o.d Valley, the Nether King Hall, and the second-rate, third-rate sects all infiltrating Qin Feng city, waiting for the right time to s.n.a.t.c.h the treasure.

However, Old Liang didn't mention anything about the beast tide, and it was obvious that he had other intentions.

Even so, Xiang Yun, who had understood the current situation in Qin Feng City, still had an extremely ugly expression on his face. Now that Lu Yongchang was dead, he, as the Deputy City Lord of Qin Feng City, naturally became the City Lord.

However, the current Qin Feng City was no longer the same pool of clear water as before — it was filled with a few fishes.

Now, it was a mess. It was almost impossible to control the whole situation!

"Old Liang, can you deal with them?" Xiang Yun asked directly.

"However, there are experts from our Wind Cloud Country who have come to intimidate them. We have already signed an agreement with them, and none of the old men will take action."

"An expert from the Wind Cloud Country?" Xiang Yun was stunned.

He naturally knew the difference between Wind Cloud Country and the other powerful empires on the continent. And the one who came was not a empire, but a sect above the empire. In the eyes of mortals, it was a fairy-like existence.

Who would have thought that there would be someone from the State of Feng Yun that would be able to talk to them and even sign an agreement with them. This made Xiang Yun curious as to who this expert was, but Old Liang clearly had no intention of informing him.

However, with this mysterious expert helping out, Xiang Yun felt the burden on his shoulders loosen. As long as those super experts did not attack and destroy his Qin Feng City, then it would be none of their business how they would fight for the treasures.

However, Xiang Yun was still rather curious, "Old Liang, why have I never heard of what a divine summons from heaven is?"

Old Liang looked at Xiang Yun with disdain, "Did you see that? Even G.o.d Descended from the Heavens doesn't know."

"Human Realm Upon Heavens?" Xiang Yun's blank expression had already explained everything.

"Legend has it that above our Seven Stars Continent, there is another world called the Outer World. It is the place where the true G.o.ds live!"

"What Heavenly Court?" Old Liang looked at Xiang Yun with a puzzled expression.

"Uh, it's nothing. Go on."

When talking about the Ethereal Sky, Xiang Yun who was an Earthling naturally thought of the Celestial Court of legends in the East, as well as those immortals who soared through the clouds and rode on the clouds, changing into a myriad of forms.

Old Liang's thoughts were not interrupted as he continued speaking.
