A good night passed, and when Murong Ling woke up, it was already broad daylight. She packed and went out, only to find that everyone was awake, and that Miao Yin was talking to Ming Xiu full of energy. Qian Lan was the first to see her, and greeted her with a smile.

Li Cangmin walked over the moment he saw her, "You woke up so early?"

Actually, it was already not too early. Murong Ling did not sleep for a long time, it was hard to avoid falling asleep. However, thinking of the pillow she found when she woke up, she felt a little helpless. "Didn't you say that you only have one blanket left?"

Li Cangmin said while looking left and right, "It's getting late, let's go back!"

Murong Ling glared at him, too lazy to bother with him. After Ming Xiu packed the tent and the other items, she asked, "Junior brother Ming Xiu, do you still want to collect the materials needed to make the talisman?"

"No need, thank you for your good will, Senior Murong."

Ming Xiu shot a glance at Li Cangmin. He had collected all the blood and beast skins from the beasts that had barged in last night, and since the harvest had exceeded his expectations, he was no longer in a hurry to make the talisman paper from the logging. Currently, Miao Yin's injuries were more important than most, "Senior Sister Murong, I had already sent a sound transmission to Royal Father yesterday to prepare the spirit medicine needed for the Muscle Life Pellet.

There was still plenty of time to return, and after agreeing to it yesterday, Murong Ling left the mountain range of clouds and mist. After bidding farewell to Qian Lan, he headed towards the Yunqing Palace with her two siblings.

After over a dozen generations of emperors repairing and building it, the Yunqing palace was even more magnificent and domineering than the Great Zhou.

He was a tall, slim, and astute middle-aged man. He cupped his hands towards and and said very politely, "My son has already explained everything that happened, thank you two Immortal Master s for saving my daughter's life."

"It's fine, it's just a small matter." Murong Ling returned the greeting, "I wonder if Your Majesty can prepare all the spirit medicines?"

"Everyone's here, this way, please."

There was a natural difference in level between mortals and cultivators, so even if the emperor were to meet the Immortal Master, he would still act with courtesy, but because he had the support of a large force behind him, Emperor Kang Ping became more confident and brought Murong Ling to the Bedchamber, "Fairy lady, twenty sets of spirit medicine are already prepared inside. If there's not enough, please let the palace notify them again."

Twenty points of spirit medicine, even if the success rate was even lower, would still be enough to refine a batch of Muscle Pills, not to mention the fact that Murong Ling's success rate was not low at all. It was written in the books that the alchemist with five levels of Immortal Cultivation World was already a genius, but Murong Ling had eight levels of success rate!

Therefore, Murong Ling concocted Four Furnace Muscle Pill and kept the remaining four portions of spirit medicine inside the Spatial Ring. She also gave the remaining ten percent spirit medicine and four bottles of Life Muscle Pill to Emperor Kang Ping.

"I did not disappoint you. The Muscle Meridian Rebirth Pill has been refined."

He immediately had a whole new level of respect for her. Although he was a mortal, he still had a good understanding of cultivators, and the family behind the Yunqing probably didn't have such a good alchemist.

Hence, his attitude towards Murong Ling became even more respectful, and he secretly made his people add another layer to Xie Yi, before cupping his hands towards Murong Ling and thanking him, "Thank you fairy for your help, such a small gift, unworthy of respect. Fairy, please accept it."

When Emperor Kang Ping saw that she accepted it, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "We have already instructed the palace people to prepare a banquet, I wonder if the two Immortal Master s would have the time to honor us with such a banquet?"

"Thank you Your Majesty for your kind intentions. My husband and I have urgent matters to attend to and thus, we are unable to participate. Please forgive us."

When he heard that this was the Element Building Stage, he sighed in his heart, knowing that it would be difficult to force it out, so as to avoid becoming enemies, he politely smiled and said, "This way, we won't urge you to stay any longer. If you two Immortal Master have the time to frequent Yun Qing, we will definitely welcome you with enthusiasm."

After refusing Miao Yin and Ming Xiu, the two of them went back home, once again passing through the familiar array formation. The two of them had complex feelings, walking around the array for a long time, but were unable to find anything, so in the end, Murong Ling could only give up and head back to meet up with Bai Mu.

However, when he arrived at the agreed location, he didn't see anyone.

"What's going on?" Murong Ling walked around the house in shock. She did not find any useful information, "Could it be that you have met with danger?"

This was the Burying Flowers Palace private house, and there was no one living here normally. They had only bought a place to stay, and before leaving, they had discussed with Bai Mu that they would reunite here.

Li Cangmin did not know the reason either and sent out a signal flare. Not long after, a guard under Burying Flowers Palace rushed over, "Your subordinate greets Palace Lord."

"What about Left Protector?"

The subordinate hurriedly replied, "The day before yesterday, Left Protector was ambushed by an assassin and lost track of his whereabouts. He was currently searching for someone in the palace."

Li Cangmin frowned, it seemed that there was someone who wanted to kill him, "What is the identity of an assassin?"

"There are two groups of people. One group is the people from the Immortal Alliance, while the other group is still uncertain. The Right Protector suspects that they are Disobedience Marquis's secret guard." The subordinate looked at his master carefully, "Actually, ever since you left the capital, Palace Lord, a total of four groups of assassins followed you. Those two groups were left behind by Protector Zuo."

The moment they left the capital, the assassins rushed forward step by step. The Immortal Alliance and the assassins from the Disobedience Marquis Palace were not the least bit surprised, but they did not know who the other two groups were, so they hid themselves quite well.

"Where did the White Guard disappear to?"

Leng Qiu went on a journey with Bai Mu, and Bai Mu went missing. Presumably, her situation was not any better, "Is there anyone who found him?"

That subordinate looked at Murong Ling and roughly guessed her identity and called her Madam. Seeing that the Palace Lord did not object, he finally made up his mind and continued to report, "Reporting to Madam, they have all disappeared by the cliff outside the city."

Outside the city, on a cliff.

The place where Bai Mu and his went missing was still filled with traces of a battle. The carriage wheel had left a clear mark on the side of the cliff, but the frame of the carriage was nowhere to be seen. Looking carefully at the direction of the carriage, they had obviously fallen off the cliff together.

"Has anyone been sent to the bottom of the cliff to search?"

The subordinate awkwardly nodded and shook his head, "He has already been sent out. It's just that there are four sides surrounding the mountain and we can't find the entrance."

Murong Ling nodded in understanding. She had the same thoughts as her, she sent her subordinates away, but just as she was about to go down, a change occurred. A crossbow arrow pierced through the air and flew towards Li Cangmin!

"Be careful!"
