"But if you really want to protect this child, it's best to meet with Nangong Yin."

Su Zijun's voice was calm and soothing, carrying an innate power that could comfort the soul. Ren Qingyue was almost persuaded by her words.

But she still couldn't accept the truth Su Zijun had revealed today. Yan Zhao... was actually the child of her master and Nangong Yin. They were not only both women, but one was a prodigy among human cultivators, a righteous figure, while the other was a notorious, ruthless Demon Lord.

No one would believe that they were a pair of lovers and even had a child together.

When they met a year ago in the woods near the Dan Pavilion of the Medicine God Sect, Nangong Yin must have already known Yan Zhao's identity, which is why she had treated Yan Zhao so gently.

Ren Qingyue found it difficult to process such a vast amount of information.

Seeing that Ren Qingyue was lost in thought and remained silent, Su Zijun did not rush her.

When Ren Qingyue finally looked up from her struggle, the woman sitting behind the table had already disappeared.

On the low table, there was a small Qiankun pouch. Ren Qingyue picked it up, finding that it contained three pieces of Zi Huang bamboo.

"......"

Yan Zhao was woken by Ye Yanran.

When she woke up, she was still in the bamboo house and found herself lying on the floor. Ye Yanran was crouched beside her, gently shaking her shoulder. "Fairy Yan, Fairy Yan, wake up!"

"Mm." Yan Zhao woke up, sat up with confusion, "Did I fall asleep?"

Ye Yanran explained, "There might have been some toxic mist in the room that caused us to faint. Luckily, nothing else happened."

Yan Zhao responded with an "Oh" and started searching for her fox. "Snowball!"

As soon as she called out, a slight rustling came from the yard, and Yan Zhao immediately got up to check.

The small fox leapt into the yard, carrying a few bamboo branches in its mouth.

Ye Yanran was first stunned by the sight, then exclaimed in shock, "Zi Huang bamboo!"

Seeing the bamboo in the fox's mouth, Yan Zhao picked up the golden-purple bamboo sticks and curiously asked, "Is this Zi Huang bamboo?"

Ye Yanran came to her senses, quickly walking over to look at the bamboo in her hand. "Zi Huang bamboo grows only one inch in five hundred years. These three pieces could be auctioned for twenty million spirit stones at the Treasure Pavilion!"

Hiss. Such a precious find.

Yan Zhao gasped and quickly put away the Zi Huang bamboo.

Ye Yanran was still incredulous, looking at the small fox with suspicion. "The Sect Master only gave us three hours, and looking at the sky, not even half of it has passed. Finding one piece of Zi Huang bamboo would be a miracle. Where did you get three?"

The small fox pretended not to understand, swishing its tail and making little noises beside Yan Zhao's legs.

Yan Zhao immediately bent down to pick it up, petting its head and generously praising it, "You're amazing, Snowball! No wonder you're my fox!"

Snowball: "......"

So good at flattering itself.

As they left the yard, Ye Yanran glanced back, feeling that today's events were too bizarre. They had fainted inexplicably and then found the Zi Huang bamboo just as mysteriously.
