"But the clan leader has given that junior enough face. It's his own stubbornness that he refuses to return and serve our clan."
"Maybe what we've done is still not enough."
Dongfang Yan heaved a long sigh.
"However, this is the elder's intention. It's always right for us to follow it."
"I'm just afraid those two so - called masters are just playing tricks on us. Who knows if they really have such capabilities? Let me go in and inquire further."
As the Fifth Elder finished speaking.
Before Dongfang Yan could stop him.
He reached out his hand to push the courtyard gate.
However.
The courtyard gate seemed to disappear and become invisible in front of them.
The Fifth Elder was not weak, but he couldn't touch the physical courtyard gate anymore.
Seeing this, the other clan elders.
All let out exclamations.
"Now, you should no longer doubt the strength of these two masters."
So at the beginning, if they hadn't received their permission, they probably wouldn't even have been able to enter this courtyard gate.
The group was still in shock.
After calming their emotions repeatedly, they quickly led their people back.
In the courtyard.
Gu Hanxun smiled slightly.
"You really care about Ningning's affairs. With just a casual remark from her, you can understand so much and handle things so properly for her."
Luo Qiu retorted, "Likewise."
In the courtyard.
It returned to its former tranquility.
It was as if no one had ever been here.
Now, let's talk about the East Continent Palace.
Since Dongfang Yinuo's words at the banquet spread, whenever the people in the palace saw the so - called arrogant little princess in the rumors, they would always stop and take a look.
Dongfang Yinuo's reputation seemed to be a little different from before.
After her mother learned what her daughter had done, she was greatly relieved. Now, this precious daughter was the only one by her side. All she wished for was that her daughter could live safely for the rest of her life.
Seeing that her daughter was now acting in an orderly manner, even the maids around her praised Dongfang Yinuo a lot. Dongfang Ruoxi also felt a lot more at ease.
Her daughter was right that night.
Nowadays, there are no shortage of heartless men.
Moreover, he was now an emperor.
If she kept feeling sorry for herself and refused to take medicine or eat, she would be exactly as the East Continent King and that woman wished, allowing them to live in bliss.
She was the original wife, the queen of the East Continent. No one could ride roughshod over her.
By going on a hunger strike and being in a weak state due to illness, she was not only losing the dignity of the East Continent Queen but also the nobility of the eldest daughter of the Dongfang family.
Because of the change in her state of mind and her daughter's company.
Although Dongfang Ruoxi's illness was not completely cured, it gradually showed some improvement.
Now.
When she saw Dongfang Yinuo coming, she could sit up straight and talk to her for a few words.
Every time the decoction and food were brought to the queen's palace, Dongfang Yinuo would always carefully check them before letting the queen take them.
Seeing her daughter becoming so cautious, Dongfang Ruoxi felt both heartache and relief.
This way.
Even if she were no longer in this world.
At least her daughter would still be able to survive in this ruthless palace.
After Dongfang Yinuo fed the queen the medicine, she went into the room to check on the affairs and accounts of the harem.
She knew.
Now that her mother was seriously ill and unable to manage the harem, if she didn't handle these matters well, the power to manage the harem might be given to that woman by her father at any time.
Time.
Flew by like flowing water.
In the blink of an eye.
Three more days had passed.
During this period.
The Dongfang family had been attacked several times by some mysterious people.
But at critical moments.
All the attacks were blocked by a more mysterious force.
They knew.
It was those two masters protecting them, and they respected those two elders even more in their hearts.
However.
The stone in their hearts never truly settled.
Just as those two elders had said, they could only protect the Dongfang family for a while. After they finished their business, they would still leave the East Continent. By then, the life and death of the Dongfang family would have nothing to do with them anymore.
On this side.
The people sent by Mo Bai and Mo Yan were all turned back.
Mo Yan became vigilant.
That night.
He showed up in person.
He wanted to go to the Dongfang family to find out what was going on.
If the conflict between the Dongfang family and the East Continent royal family didn't start soon, they wouldn't be able to gather enough souls for their needs.
Raiding the fifth industry of the Dongfang family at night.
This was the plan Mo Yan had arranged for tonight.
Before this, everything was simple. Just when Mo Yan was about to burn the fifth industry of the Dongfang family to the ground, a gentle force appeared around the Dongfang family's mansion, reflecting all the refined fire he had thrown in back at him.
If Mo Yan hadn't been there, the number of his troops from the Ghost Domain would probably have decreased again this time.
Mo Yan wasn't stupid.
Even when he showed up in person, he encountered such a strange thing. He immediately guessed that there was a master helping them.
"No one can stop me from taking this small branch mansion."
Mo Yan said to the deep and dark air.
His followers were all looking blank.
A strong aura flashed by and fled straight towards the outside of the city.
Seeing this, Mo Yan.
Hastened to follow.
But when they reached the deep mountains and dense forests outside the city, the aura suddenly stopped, as if she had deliberately led him out of the royal capital.
The black - shadow in front stopped.
Mo Yan followed closely behind.
"Lord Mo Yan, long time no see."
Although it was a strange face, with such a tone and such an address, Mo Yan naturally recognized this person immediately.
It was Luo Qiu.
"Why are you stopping me? Birds of a feather flock together. We should stay out of each other's business. Luo Qiu, why do you always have to go against me?"
"Is it me who always goes against you, Lord Mo Yan, or is it that you're too ambitious and want to do some shocking things behind my back and disrupt our original plan?"
Mo Yan retorted, "I haven't."
"Lord Mo Yan has a good memory. For the past few hundred years, you've repented every day, saying how sorry you were to your sister. But now, you've come to the East Continent secretly behind my back. What for? Do you really think I don't know?"
"The Ghost Domain has discovered the Millennium Stone Soul, right? You want to use the souls we've accumulated over the years as keys to unlock the power of the Millennium Stone Soul, and then give all this power to Mo Bai, making him the master of the Nine - Continent Continent and fulfilling your ambition of these years, right?"
Mo Yan frowned deeply.
How did Luo Qiu know all this?
"Lord Mo Yan, your true feelings are really cheap. I thought that at least on the road to resurrecting our sister, we should be on the same side. But now it seems that I overestimated you. In your heart, your ambition will always come first."
Even Mo Bai, although he was his son and received some of his love, at most, was just a pawn for him to annex the Nine - Continent Continent and make it all part of the Loulan territory.
