The Two-Faced Venerate Emperor

Bai Li Jia Bao gave a simple introduction of the Bai Li Clan's history and the internal relationships within the clan; she described with short and precise terms and easily mapped out the entire relationship network of the Bai Li Clan to Huan Qing Yan.

It made Huan Qing Yan happy to be talking to Bai Li Jia Bao and wished that they had met sooner.

The two talked till the day turned dark before they unwillingly parted.

If not for the Clan Patriarch sending someone to call for Huan Qing Yan for her to meet an important guest, the two would likely have talked till midnight.

Bai Li Jia Bao was feeling curious because she had not heard of any important guests visiting the Bai Li Clan today.

However, she was also not sure because there had been many guests visiting the clan over the past few days. As Bai Li Jia Bao was fond of Huan Qing Yan, she did not hesitate to ask: "Want me to accompany you?"

Huan Qing Yan smiled, Bai Li Jia Bao's character was truly cute, she would wholeheartedly treat a person that she likes.

The moment they got close, she did not hesitate to look out for her.

Huan Qing Yan was touched, but she decided to decline the offer. The Patriarch sent Jia Bao over but did not mention her in the summon which likely meant that he did not want her to participate: "No need, I can go alone. I do not have much in my place, feel free to take a look around, I will return once I meet the guest."

Bai Li Jia Bao did not mind; Huan Qing Yan's Moodless Court belonged to Crazy Sage before, no one was allowed to enter in the past. Now that she has entered, she would naturally want to take a look around.

That was why Bai Li Jia Bao waved and said: "Go on, see you later."

Huan Qing Yan shook her head and instructed the serving girls to take care of Bai Li Ji Bao before heading to the Clan Patriarch's courtyard house alone.

Moodless Court was quite a distance away from the Clan Patriarch's place and required her to walk through a large garden.

Ever since Huan Qing Yan made her decision, her emotions had become much more stable than before. During the time she was in the Bai Li Clan, she had only been focusing on her training and had not found the time to appreciate the exquisite buildings and beautiful gardens.

She walked slowly, taking in the scenery with every step.

The servant who was leading the way was not hurried as well. After they walked nearly half the garden, a spirit crane suddenly appeared in front of the servant.

The servant opened the spirit crane, and a voice was heard: "Ah Qin, where did you disappear to brat? The captain is calling for an urgent meeting, come quickly,"

The servant called Ah Qin looked at Huan Qing Yan, embarrassed.

Huan Qing Yan waved her hand, "Go ahead, I can go by myself."

Ah Qin was delighted and quickly thanked her before scurrying away.

Huan Qing Yan shook her head as she watched the departing back of Ah Qin, just as she was about to continue walking, she noticed the scenery in front of her had suddenly changed.

The beautiful scenery was covered by white fog, not even her hands could be seen clearly when stretched out.

Crap! Huan Qing Yan immediately noticed something was not right and held her breath.

However, two tendrils of white fog still dove into her nose, Huan Qing Yan felt her senses becoming extremely sharp and notice mixed noises entering her ears.

Bird calls, someone talking from afar, the sound of flowing water… everything entered her ears.

The sounds were very messy and magnified, Huan Qing Yan was caught by surprise, the sudden rush of many sounds caused her to be in a daze.

However, she also created a barrier around her in reflex and she also held her head with her hands; it felt as though she was exploding and slowly, she squatted.

She circulated spirit energy around her head to reduce the discomfort while trying her best to keep herself awake.

Hoping that she could last long enough until someone from the Bai Li Clan noticed something had gone wrong.
