garden to their side.

“What are they doing here?” Leng Ruoxue asked in puzzlement.
They didn’t have much of a relationship.

“I don’t know.
They refused to tell me,” Leng Ruohan said helplessly.
He understood Xue’er’s temper very well.
He knew that the Huo family had already offended his precious sister, so Xue’er didn’t want to meet them at all.
But their grandfather wanted him to come, so he had to come!

“Freak, let’s go to the palace to see Big Sister Mo!” Leng Ruoxue turned to Freak and suggested.
She was not in the mood to see the Huo family now.
She had even turned away Huo Qing, let alone others!

“Okay.” Freak nodded in agreement.

“Quill, take us to the palace.” Leng Ruoxue let Quill out.
Then she and Freak jumped onto Quill’s back.

“Yes, Master,” Quill replied.
He flapped his wings and soared into the sky.
With a whoosh, he instantly transformed into a small black dot.

Looking at his willful baby sister, Leng Ruohan shook his head helplessly and left the garden to report to his grandfather.

In a side palace of the Eastern Lagoon Empire’s imperial palace…

“Little girl, why do you have time to see this old man today?” the old man, who was tending to the flowers and plants with his head lowered, asked curiously.

“The Huo family came to my house, so I had to hide,” Leng Ruoxue said bluntly while sitting on a stone bench by the garden and leaning against Freak.
She originally wanted to go to Big Sister Mo’s place, but Li Yuan was there.
She didn’t want to be a third wheel, so she had to come to the old man’s place.

“So my place has become your refuge?” The old man glared at her with slight displeasure. This girl is really infuriating.
She’s finally come to see me, but she didn’t come specially to coax me! The old man complained in his head.

“Not every place can become my refuge,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly while looking at the old man who liked to throw tantrums.

“Well, that’s true,” the old man agreed.

“By the way, little girl, is there any news about that old thing Xu Xing?” the old man continued asking.
But he didn’t stop what he was doing as he carefully and cautiously moved his beloved flowers and plants to another place to replant them.

“Not yet.
Ask Li Yuan and the others to keep a low profile so as not to attract trouble,” Leng Ruoxue reminded.
With the Huo family making such a big fuss, they would definitely not be able to escape when Xu Xing came for revenge.
After all, one was in the open, while the other was in the dark.
It would be too easy for Xu Xing to take revenge.

“Don’t worry.
I told them long ago.” The old man was still very assured about Li Yuan, a more sensible descendant.
This was also the main reason why he didn’t stop Leng Ruoxue and the others from usurping the throne.

“Old man, we’ll be going first.
Be careful.” Leng Ruoxue looked at the sky and felt that it was about time, so she stood up and prepared to leave.

“Go!” The old man waved at the two people who had already sat on the black eagle.
Then he lowered his head and continued with his work.

After a short while, Leng Ruoxue and Freak returned to the general’s mansion.

When she got down from Quill’s back, she happened to meet the steward.

“Steward, has the Huo family left?” Leng Ruoxue asked.

“They left a long time ago.
Miss, why did you only return now? Old Master was so worried!” The steward kept nagging.
