Rowland sighed, understanding the situation.

"When are you leaving?"

"Now."

Ruo Lan looked at the disgruntled expression. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She urged, "Go early and come back early."

For some unknown reason, a feeling that was difficult to describe suddenly surfaced in Xiao Yan's heart when he saw Ruo Lan's faint smile. It felt somewhat warm, but also a little bit sour.

"Wait for me."

As the sound of his voice faded, he slowly stood up and walked out of the great hall.

His black monastic robe fluttered in the wind, bringing with it a touch of bright and beautiful colors.

In the night, his handsome body suddenly rose from the ground. After letting out a soft whistle, he disappeared into the night sky.

After looking at the night sky for a long time, Ruo Lan slowly lowered her head.

Suddenly, she noticed something moving in the corner of the wall.

With a thought, her body turned into a blur and she instantly appeared at the corner of the wall.

Before the little thing in the corner could react, it was lifted up by a slender jade hand.

"Eh, it's actually a Fire Fox?" Rowland muttered in surprise.

One had to know that in the Ye Kingdom's imperial city, it was rare to see something like a fire fox.

To a small animal like Fire Fox with beautiful fur, this Imperial City was an extremely dangerous place.

The Fire Fox struggled and let out a series of creaking sounds.

Ruo Lan frowned. She suddenly had an idea. She felt a vague magic power from this Fire Fox.

Without thinking any further, she picked up the Fire Fox and went straight to the back of the hall.

As soon as he entered, he saw Li Qianqiu walking out.

"Li Qianqiu." Ruo Lan called out to him.

Li Qianqiu hurriedly greeted her and bowed in greeting. "Greetings, Miss Ruo Lan." As the sound of his voice faded, he suddenly saw the Fire Fox in Ruo Lan's hands.

Fire Fox struggled and trembled in Ruo Lan's hands. When she felt the divine aura of this woman, she was scared out of her wits.

Li Qianqiu cried out involuntarily, "Miss Ruo Lan, how did this beast offend you?!"

Ruo Lan shook her head and said with a smile, "No, I saw it hiding in a corner, so I brought it here. I wanted to ask if you know this little guy."

Li Qianqiu took the Fire Fox in both hands and held it in his arms.

Fire Fox didn't seem to be afraid. After being in Li Qianqiu's arms for a few moments, she propped up her two hind legs and laid on Li Qianqiu's shoulder, letting out a series of creaking sounds.

Moments later, it stomped its leg and jumped into a nearby field of flowers and trees.

"What's going on?" Rowland asked curiously.

Li Qianqiu respectfully replied, "This is my clan's messenger, the Fire Fox. He has come to deliver a message to me."

If Lan Deng's heart was touched, his eyes would light up as he anxiously asked, "Is this news from Jun Wu You?"

Li Qianqiu was a little embarrassed as he scratched his head and said, "Reporting to Miss Ruolan, this is not my lord's news. That little fox said that something strange has happened in the Cloudsoaring Mountain recently, and it asked me if I wanted to take a look. "

With that, Li Qianqiu angrily said, "My family members shouldn't even look at the situation, how would I have time to leave …"

Luo Lan was disappointed, but she was also curious. "What strange phenomenon appeared on the Cloudsoaring Mountain?"

Li Qianqiu frowned and said, "I heard that there's some sort of treasure that's about to appear."

A treasure was born?

This kind of thing sounds very ticklish.

Moreover, if he were to leave now, even if he stayed in this mansion, he wouldn't be able to tell that Ye Yifan, that fatuous monarch, would agree to watch this evil Taoist's request and allow him to return to the palace.

The palace was quiet and depressing, how could it be any fun outside the palace?

If he didn't find an opportunity to slip away now, wouldn't he be a fool?

Besides, if he could sneak out and find a chance to meet him, that would be even better.

Thinking up to here, Ruo Lan's face was full of excitement. She smiled and asked, "Where is the Cloud Floating Mountain?"

Li Qianqiu stared at Ruo Lan with a strange expression for a while, before replying, "Six hundred kilometers north of the Imperial City."

Ruo Lan nodded and said in a low voice, "Very good. "Not too far away, not too close …"

"Miss Ruo Lan, you …" Li Qianqiu asked hesitantly.

A strong smile appeared on Ruo Lan's face, and her eyes curved into two crescent moons.

"In the next few days, I will leave the training of the Lin siblings and those hundred children to you!"

Li Qianqiu couldn't help but ask, "Miss Ruo Lan, are you going …"

Ruo Lan smiled and said, "Is that so?" Naturally, it is the Floating Cloud Mountain that is looking for treasures! "

Li Qianqiu was extremely depressed in his heart. If he had known this would happen, he would've been burdened even more.

Moreover, she was going to steal him away to play in the Cloudsoaring Mountain, yet he couldn't go with her. How could this not make his heart itch?

Unfortunately, Ruo Lan had already given the order, so he couldn't resist. Who asked my lord to say that Ruo Lan's orders are the same as my lord's, sigh …

The poor little fox could only stay in the capital and continue to be his training teacher.

Floating Cloud Mountain, located six hundred miles north of the imperial city of Ye, was one of the sixteen views of the country.

The mountain was over three thousand meters high, and it shot straight up into the sky, towering into the clouds.

The top of the mountain was surrounded by clouds and mist all year round. From afar, the entire area under the cloud was covered in white mist. Only the part that had burst through the clouds remained.

Hence, the word "Floating Cloud" was given to him.

In the past few days, the inn at the bottom of the Cloud Floating Mountain had become a bustling business. Not long ago, there was a strange sight on the Cloud Floating Mountain.

Looking from afar, the entire Cloud Floating Mountain was covered in multicolored light. It didn't look like the scenery of the mortal world, but more like a fairyland.

After that, many tourists came to visit, filling up all the inns and hotels at the foot of the mountain.

Not to mention the hotels, even the houses nearby were rented for lodging by tourists.

On this day, Li Yu carried a medicine basket on his back as he sat upright by the side of an official road below the Cloud Floating Mountain.

In front of him was a white cloth with all sorts of medicine harvested from the Cloud Floating Mountain on top of it.

Speaking of which, Li Yu was born into an official family.

However, as the saying goes, once the emperor and his subjects ascended the throne, his father, who was an official in the imperial court, would return home.

The old man had not been of high rank and was a straightforward person. When he had been a government official in those years, he had been so worried that he hadn't been able to get anything out of it. On the contrary, he had been exhausted.

Ever since he'd settled down at the Cloud Floating Mountain and suffered from sickness, Li Yu's savings were all used up long ago in order to treat his father's illness. He had no choice but to learn the art of medicine by himself.

He hadn't learned anything else in the past few years, but he'd taught himself quite a bit about the art of making things difficult for others.

In the past few days, the number of visitors to the Cloud Floating Mountain Sect had increased exponentially. Li Yu pondered as he started a small business by the side of the road.

However, when ordinary people travel, who wouldn't bring some medicine with them?

If there wasn't any serious illness, then no one would walk towards Li Yu.

In these past few days, Li Yu's medicine stall was set up every day, but his business wasn't so good.

Just as he was thinking, he saw a young master with a face as white as jade riding a white horse slowly towards him.

This young master's appearance was extremely delicate and pretty. His face was like white jade and his lips were like a rosy red.

The most unusual thing was that his eyes looked like the stars in the sky. They flickered with brilliance, but they weren't intimidating at all. On the contrary, it caused others to feel as if they were falling into a trap when they saw it.

On her face, there was even a pair of faint dimples, causing one to fall in love with her at first glance.

This is bad, why would I have such feelings for a young master?

Li Yu came back to his senses and quickly lowered his head, continuing to wait for the next tourist.

Needless to say, this young master of chaotic times with fluttering white clothes was a woman dressed as a man. After she left the Imperial City, she rode the wind.

A journey of six hundred kilometers, if one walked, would take at least ten days. However, she flew with the wind. Although she was not in a hurry, she had reached the Cloud Floating Mountain in three days.

This was Ruo Lan's first time traveling alone. However, she understood that when a woman went out alone, she would encounter a lot of trouble.

As a result, in a small city near the Cloudfloat Mountain, she had already changed into a man's outfit. He even went to the market and bought a white horse before he slowly headed towards the Cloudfloat Mountain.

Although there was a treasure unearthed here, Ruo Lan didn't have much of an opinion of that treasure.

Although she already had a Divine Body and had both Divine and Demonic powers, she was still born in an ordinary family. She had only heard about treasures being unearthed in books before.

She only thought that with the appearance of the treasures and the gathering of the major forces, she might have the chance to meet the devil race and find out about Jun Wu Xi's recent news.

After all, when Jun Wu You returned to the Demon race's underground palace, she was no longer able to enter the underground palace after his awakening. Could it be that some adultery had developed between him and his so-called Night Demon Consort?

Hmph, Jun Wu You, if you dare to carry me on your back and play tricks with that adulterous concubine, I'll put on a green hat for you!

While he was thinking, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes looking at him fervently.

After Ruo Lan cultivated, her inner breath was clear. When she felt the gaze, she immediately raised her head and saw a handsome doctor looking at her from the side of the road.

Although he said he was a doctor, it was actually because there was a medicine stall in front of him, and beside it were some tools and medicine boxes for treating illnesses.

Ruo Lan burst into laughter. Along the way here, she'd seen countless small vendors, but this was the first time she'd seen one among the wandering practitioners.

Father Flower was a doctor in the Thousand Buddha Village. Although Ruo Lan's medical skills weren't great, she still had some skills. When she saw him, she immediately felt a sense of familiarity.

When she saw the husband looking at her, Ruo Lan couldn't help but smile at him.

The doctor's face turned slightly red and he quickly lowered his head.

Ruo Lan smiled and shook her head, riding her horse as it slowly moved forward.

Arriving at the bottom of the Cloud Floating Mountain, Ruo Lan realized that she had received the news a little too late.

The inn at the foot of the mountain in Floating Cloud Town was already full. Not to mention the guest rooms, even the woodshed had been cleaned out and used as a place for tourists to stay.

Fortunately, Ruo Lan had already reached the divine body. The thick mist below the Cloud Floating Mountain was extremely cold to the bystanders, but to her, it wasn't a big problem.

Moreover, the mountains and rivers here contained a faint amount of spiritual energy, which was of great benefit to her.

Ruo Lan frowned and pondered as she stood at the village entrance of the Floating Cloud Town and raised her head to look at the Cloud Floating Mountain that was so high up in the sky.

The seven-colored light did not appear every day. It was said that in the past month, it appeared a total of six times, causing countless people to stop and watch every time.

However, no one knew when or when it would appear.

As he was thinking, he suddenly heard cries of alarm from the surroundings.

He saw that the surrounding tourists and villagers were all looking at the Cloudsoaring Mountain with amazement.

Ruo Lan was stunned. She raised her head to look, and saw that at the peak of the floating cloud peak, a faint cloud had suddenly rose up. In an instant, the cloud had transformed into the shape of a cauldron.
