Xiao Qing nodded in response and walked inside with the Eldest Princess and the others. The Azure Face Ghost cautiously followed behind. The Eldest Princess had someone serve tea, then smiled and said, "No wonder you are not affected by Dragon Qi; it turns out you are from Difu."
Xiao Qing chuckled and then asked curiously, "Is the capital really that dangerous?"
The Eldest Princess's expression turned serious. "It is very dangerous. We have enmity with the Emperor, and the National Master is a Great Demon close to transcending."
Xiao Qing's smile vanished, replaced by a grave look. "Is that true?"
The Eldest Princess nodded solemnly. "Why would I lie to you?"
Xiao Qing furrowed her brows and murmured, "No wonder the master wanted me to inform him." She then looked up at the Eldest Princess and reassured her, "Don't worry; with me around, I will definitely keep you safe."
The Eldest Princess smiled lightly. "It's not that dangerous yet. You should stay at the residence for now."
Xiao Qing accepted without hesitation and nodded. Soon after, the Eldest Princess arranged for Xiao Qing to settle in.
This left only the Eldest Princess and Guan Mama together.
The Eldest Princess's expression darkened. "Mama, what do you think is the relationship between Feng Er and Lu Pan and Cui Pan?"
Guan Mama was taken aback for a moment, hesitating before replying, "Your Highness, I can't tell either, but he doesn't seem to harbor any ill intentions towards the young master."
The Eldest Princess frowned. "Can you guarantee that?"
Guan Mama stiffened; how could she dare to make such a guarantee? She fell silent.
The Eldest Princess coldly stated, "Lu Pan and Cui Pan must have some ulterior motives. I wonder if Feng Er will suffer because of his cooperation with them." Worry etched across her face.
Guan Mama hesitated before saying, "Your Highness, the young master is very clever; he shouldn't fall into any traps."
The Eldest Princess shook her head. "It's not that simple. After all, he is still too young; how could he possibly contend with demons?"
Guan Mama's eyes flickered; she didn't think Qin Feng was an easy character to deal with.
It seemed as if the Eldest Princess had made a firm decision. "I can't wait any longer; I need to leave the capital. I don't feel at ease without keeping an eye on Feng Er."
Guan Mama was taken aback. "Ah, Your Majesty definitely won't let you leave the capital."
The Eldest Princess's eyes glinted with coldness. "He won't be able to pay attention to me for long. The National Master should be losing patience as well."
Guan Mama was startled, sensing that the princess was about to do something significant. "But isn't there someone protecting us? We could use their strength to make things a bit easier," she said in a low tone.
Guan Mama looked at the Eldest Princess with a sense of awe, as if the fierce and decisive princess from before had returned.
In Guobei County, Bai Suzhen stared blankly at the young man lounging on the chair. Wasn't he the one shown on the Three Lives Stone?
Qin Feng slowly sat up, slightly surprised that Bai Suzhen had arrived so quickly.
Hei Jiao had been unaware of the situation in Difu these past few days. "Miss, barging into someone else's residence is rather impolite," Qin Feng remarked indifferently.
Bai Suzhen suddenly snapped back to reality, looking at Qin Feng with uncertainty. She realized why the Judge had sent her here. It turned out that the Judge knew she was looking for someone here.
Her heart raced with both surprise and joy; she had thought it would take a long time to find him, but it seemed she had located him so soon.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Suzhen stepped forward slowly. "I have come to meet you, Young Master."
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow. "Go ahead, who are you? What do you want?"
Bai Suzhen quickly replied, "I am here on the Judge's orders to protect you."
