He quickly took out the sound transmission note from the space, and heard the anxious voice of Zi Xi from the other side.

"Miss, Miss, I have lived up to your expectations and finally found out the whereabouts of the Master. However, I can sense the direction of the Master, but I still cannot find the Master. It's strange, the bird of prey pointed to this place, how could it be **?"

Ling'er suddenly thought of something and was about to speak when she heard a man's voice on the other end of the sound transmission note.

"Who is sneaking around here?"

Then a fight was heard and the note transmission was disconnected.

"Zi Xi? Zi Xi!" The bad thoughts in his mind became increasingly difficult to suppress, and he hurriedly re-awakened the sound transmission note, but no one answered the call.

Could something have happened to Zi Xi

Without thinking too much, Ling'er started to act. All the speculations at the moment were useless, the only way was to quickly find information about Dream Island, and then go find Zi Xi and Emperor Shi Tian.

Because Yao Lao had just woken up from a serious illness, he had to take medicine on time every day. Ling'er quietly added some sleeping pills to the medicine soup, and only started to act after Yao Lao fell asleep. Sure enough, she successfully got the key to the library.

The process of entering the library was unusually smooth, and there seemed to be no obstacles at all, which made Ling'er feel a little strange.

In an old wooden box at the top of a shelf, find a book called Dreamlike.

"It's really easy to get it." Ling'er quickly flipped through the book with her photographic memory, then put the book back where it was and quietly left the library. After Ling'er left, a figure appeared next to the bookshelf, looking at the person who had walked away with deep eyes.

Although Ling'er knew the general location of Dream Island, she didn't know where the entrance was, nor how to enter as an outsider. So for now, she had to find Zi Xi first. Fortunately, she had left a soul-chasing guide on the voice transmission talisman, which could find the last place where Zi Xi appeared.

Following the instructions of the Soul Chaser, Ling'er came to a small town. The town was remote and sparsely populated, and the streets were not very busy. This narrow path was where Zi Xi appeared last.

Ling'er looked around and found the sound transmission note she had given to Zixi in an inconspicuous corner.

"How did it fall here?" Did it fall accidentally during the fight? Or was it a clue that Zi Xi left for her on purpose

She remembered Zi Xi said that she could sense the presence of Emperor Shi Tian here, but she couldn't find anyone. Looking up, the sky was high and the clouds were light. Looking down, the bumpy road was inconspicuous.

Could this be the place Zi Xi was talking about? She looked up, down, left, and right. No matter how she looked, this place didn't look like a place where people could hide.

Suddenly, a white light flashed on his wrist, "Xiao Zi, did you find something?"

"Spirit-blocking powder, there is a smell of spirit-blocking powder here." Spirit-blocking powder is the pollen scattered by a unique plant on Dream Island after it blooms. It has an excellent effect of hiding the smell. As long as this powder is used, even a dog with a keen sense of smell will find it difficult to capture the correct information.

"It's so magical. It seems that there are many good things on this dream island."

"... "

Master, is this the point? The spirit-blocking fans completely concealed the news of the person they were tracking. "Master, what should we do now?"

"Just serve it cold."

What is the method of cold salad? Xiao Zi was still wondering in her heart, only to see Ling'er walking forward leisurely, then found an inn and stayed there...

Yes, you heard it right, we are staying here!

Xiao Zi was almost deformed by shock! At such a critical moment, the master was still in the mood to stay in the hotel! What happened to the promise to compare favors with the master? What happened to the promise to treat Zi Xi like a sister? It seems that since both of them are missing, she is not in a hurry at all.

"Master, I'm not being nosy, but I just can't bear it, so I want to ask you what's the meaning of your staying here. Then we won't look for you, Lord, and Miss Zixi."

Ling'er was eating the food that the waiter had just brought. "This taste is far worse than what we make every day."

As he said this, he put away his chopsticks and took out some exquisite pastries from his personal space.

"No, master, can you hear me?" He is still eating with relish, what a big heart he has.

"I heard it, I'm not deaf." He put a piece of cake in his mouth and savored it carefully. This is what food is, the taste is amazing.

"So, what are we doing?"

"I'm eating. I'm not going to the toilet. Xiao Zi, have you lost your intelligence recently? How can you ask such a stupid question?"

"What? I wanted to ask when we should go to rescue His Majesty and Miss Zixi. Master, you clearly know it, but you still deliberately bully us, humph!"

"To save people, we also need to know where they are, you know?"

"I... I don't know."

"Then where do you want me to go to save people? I can't just shout on the street." It seems to make sense.

"But we can't just do nothing." It seems a bit unkind of us to eat, drink and have fun knowing that they are in imminent danger.

"This inn is the only way in and out of this town. Since I can't find anyone, I can only wait and see until they come to me."

The cake was thrown into her mouth again, her mouth was satisfied, and her expression became peaceful. However, the worry in her heart did not decrease at all, she was just holding on.

The sky was covered by darkness, but the stars could not illuminate the moon. Today's night sky seemed a little cold, and the tiny stars could not illuminate the night, but made people feel cold to the bone.

The wind moved, and Ling'er sat up.

"What happened to the master?"

"Someone is coming." And they are masters, at the peak of blue and purple levels. And she couldn't even see through the strength of one of them.

"Is it the one who captured Zi Xi?"

"It shouldn't be. If they had such strength, they wouldn't be so sneaky." After all, in this era, martial arts is respected, and people with strong strength speak directly with strength.

When Xiao Zi heard that it was not the person they were waiting for, she instantly lost interest.

"Since this isn't the person we're waiting for, I'd better go back to sleep."

"I'm afraid I can't sleep." Although they were not the people she had seen before, she could feel the same aura, which meant that these people came from the same place as them.

"Come on, we have to catch up."

As she spoke, Ling'er had already changed into a black nightgown, jumped out of the window, and quietly disappeared into the dark night.

The group of people were moving very fast, and Ling'er didn't dare to get too close, so she could only follow them carefully from a distance.

Suddenly Kenshin stopped, "Lord Kenshin, what happened?" his subordinates asked immediately.

Kenshin did not speak, but turned around and waved his hand towards a corner behind him. A blue-white light like a sword flew out of his hand, and the thick tree trunk in the corner broke with a sound.

"It's okay, let's go." Maybe he was overthinking it.

Ling'er was hiding in the corner, motionless, holding her breath, fearing that she would be noticed by that person.

Fortunately, she had the ability to teleport, otherwise the tree that was broken into two pieces would not be the same tree.

"Master, that man is so powerful. I can still vaguely feel the sense of oppression from him."

"So we can't act rashly. Our original plan to find the person and rescue him has to be put on hold." Facing a powerful opponent, she couldn't act rashly before she knew the other party's background clearly. Xia Ling'er would not do such a thing that would result in loss of both the wife and the army.

It just so happened that she was worried about not being able to find a way to enter Neverland.

"Boss Jian, why are you here?" Mo Feng sensed someone approaching and came out to investigate. As soon as he went out, he saw Jian Xin, the manager of Lingxi Palace.

Jianxin is the most powerful person in Lingxi Palace besides the Palace Master. Even Mo Lingling, the young master, has to show respect to him.

Mo Feng stepped forward and asked politely and respectfully.

"I am here to check on the young master's condition on the orders of the palace mistress."

In fact, even if Jianxin didn't say it, everyone knew in their hearts that they must have come for Mo Lingling. The palace mistress still loved Mo Lingling very much.

It seems that the letter I wrote to my father has fallen into the hands of the Master of Lingxi Palace.

Because what was written in the letter was not true, Mo Feng felt guilty at the moment. Lingxi Palace was different from the Mo family, so they had no reason to forgive his deception.

"Lingling, she seems to have fallen asleep. Otherwise, Mo Feng should go and call her over."

"No need, I can go there myself." He walked straight past Mo Feng who was blocking the way and went towards Mo Lingling's room.

Because of the warrior's advanced perception, Jianxin can directly find Mo Lingling's location without Mo Feng leading the way. Mo Feng followed behind, feeling a little nervous and even able to feel his heart pounding.

The two finally stopped at the door of Mo Lingling's room.

In just a moment, the door opened.

However, the person who came out was not Mo Lingling, but her maid Chunying.

"I, Chunying, greet Master Jian." Everyone in Lingxi Palace was in awe of Jianxin. Not only was he a close confidant of the Palace Master, but his strength was also unfathomable.

"Where is the young master?"

"To reply to General Jian, the young master is feeling unwell and has taken medicine and gone to bed. I... I really don't dare to disturb her."

"Yes, Mr. Jian, it is really late now. Lingling is a girl after all, and it is really inappropriate to enter a girl's bedroom in the middle of the night."

Kenshin is a typical straight man. He only knows how to carry out the orders of the palace master and is not interested in these complicated things.

But listening to Mo Feng's words, it seems to make some sense.

"Forget it, let's do it tomorrow." He turned around and said, "Tomorrow morning, when the young master wakes up, come and inform me immediately." After saying that, he left.

Chunying and Mo Feng looked at the people who were gradually disappearing and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Every time I face Mr. Jian, I always feel scared.

"Okay, Haru-Yakura, I won't bother you anymore."

"Farewell, His Majesty."

After everyone had gone away, Chunying stuck her head out and looked around. After making sure that there was really no one there, she slowly closed the door.

"Young Palace Master, General Jian is here in person." Since someone from Lingxi Palace has come, it means that the Palace Master has already known about this. General Jian is still very smart. As long as he sees the Young Palace Master tomorrow, he will not be able to hide all this.

Although the light in Mo Lingling's room was on, she was sitting on the bed soberly. It was obvious that Chunying had lied to Jianxin just now.

"No, Master must not know about this." Although Master loved her very much, he would never tolerate her repeatedly violating his principles. Master was a very principled person. She still clearly remembered that once when she went out for training, she killed a nest of small animals and was severely punished by Master.

The master always said that bullying the weak is not acceptable, that demons and evil spirits should not be associated with, that stealing is not allowed, and that people should have a kind heart. Moreover, the master had verbally instructed her to destroy that thing. If the master knew that she not only disobeyed his order and kept it, but also used it without authorization, the consequences would be disastrous.

But now that Jianxin is here, how can she cover up this matter? She really needs to think about it...

"Oh, I remember there is a very special poisonous grass on our Dream Island. It looks very similar to a spiritual grass. If you are not an experienced pharmacist, you can't tell the difference between the two. If you eat it by mistake, the spiritual sea will dry up and the dantian will be broken. At the least, most of the spiritual power will be consumed and you will suffer serious internal injuries."

"Is the Demonic Grass that Young Palace Master is talking about?"

"That's right."

"Young Palace Master wants Chief Jian to believe that you have eaten the Magic Grass by mistake? But it would be difficult for Chief Jian to deceive, right?" Otherwise, he would not have become the top leader under the Pavilion Master.

"Since Chief Jian was sent by the Palace Master, he must have seen the letter from His Highness Feng. He must have brought a pharmacist with him this time. If the pharmacist takes your pulse, the secret will be revealed, right? Moreover, Chief Jian also has some knowledge of pharmacology. He can still tell whether you have taken the magic grass or not." Although it is an idea, it does not seem to be very feasible.

"It's okay. I happen to have a magic grass in my personal space." It was given to her by his relatives as a thank-you gift after she accidentally saved a child last time.

"Young Palace Master, you want to... No, **No. Your body is already very weak. If you eat the magic grass again, I am worried... I am worried... You will not be able to bear it... **No, **No, you should think of another way."

"It's okay, I know my limits." She cherished her life very much, so she would not harm her body. She only needed to grind the magic grass into powder, soak it in a bathtub, and then bathe with the water. In this way, she would have the scent of the magic grass on her body, and she could pass the test of Jianxin.

"But even if we can hide it from Mr. Jian, what about the pharmacist? Wouldn't everything be exposed once the pharmacist takes your pulse?"

He waved to Chunying, and Chunying immediately walked to Mo Lingling and listened attentively.

After a moment, Haru Sakura signaled.

"I will do it right away."

"Go ahead."

Early the next morning, Haru Sakura came to invite Kenshin.

Mo Lingling was still lying on the bed, covered by a veil, with only a part of her arm exposed. The pharmacist used a handkerchief to feel her pulse.

After a moment, "Okay, Young Palace Master."

"Mr. Liu, how is the young palace master's condition?" Jianxin asked hurriedly.

"Looking at the pulse, the young palace master accidentally ate the magic grass, which caused the leakage of spiritual power. Fortunately, the young palace master has a high level of cultivation, and with the timely replenishment of external force, it did not cause a disaster."

Jian Xin did smell the scent of the Demon Spirit Grass on Mo Lingling and in the room. It seemed that the Palace Master was overly suspicious this time, and the matter of the Young Palace Master was indeed an accident.

"The condition of the young palace master is basically stable now. As long as he eats more spiritual herbs and medicines to replenish the lost spiritual power, he will be fine. Please rest assured, Mr. Jian and the palace master."

Hearing what the pharmacist said, Kenshin felt relieved.

"These are the medicines that the Palace Master asked Jianxin to bring with him before he left. Please take a look, Mr. Liu, to see which ones can be used."

He took off a storage bag, and then some rare medicinal herbs and bottles and jars appeared on the table. Any of these things were priceless. It was rumored that the Lord of Lingxi Palace favored Mo Lingling, and it seemed that the rumor was true.

"Wow, these are all good stuff, Master." Ling'er, who had been following all the way, was also moved when she saw these things on the roof. Not to mention Xiao Zi, who had never seen the world, was drooling over them.

Mo Lingling could deceive Jian Xin with this method, but she couldn't deceive her. After all, she had studied these poisons very thoroughly.

However, Mo Lingling was quite capable, and was able to bribe the pharmacist. Judging from Jianxin's attitude towards the pharmacist, the pharmacist's status on Dream Island should not be low.

Just as Ling'er was deep in thought, Jianxin suddenly looked up and shouted to the roof, "Who's there?"
