89: A strange feeling

"Yuer, what's wrong?"

Noticing the change in Nangong Yu's expression, Shangguan Yuexi asked.

Nangong Yu shook his head, "It's nothing, Mother, let's go inside!"

"Greetings to Grand Consort Your Highness! Greetings to Little Prince!"

The voices of the guards at the entrance rang out, carrying into the Princely Manor. Aunt Shen and the others rushed over upon hearing the news.

"Greetings to Grand Consort Your Highness! Greetings to Little Prince/Young Master/Master!"

"Dispense with the formalities!"

Shangguan Yuexi waved her hand slightly and walked inside with Nangong Yu.

Seeing this, Aunt Shen followed, bringing Qing Ling and Sparrow Sprite, the two demons.

Aunt Shen followed closely, speaking softly, "Grand Consort Your Highness, people from the Imperial Palace came by. They asked a few questions and left. I wonder if they found the person who harmed Yuer?"

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yuexi looked slightly helpless and instructed, "Aunt Shen, please make arrangements. From now on, whenever Yuer enters or leaves the kitchen, have someone specifically follow him. Don't let him eat random things."

Hearing this, Aunt Shen was slightly stunned. She lowered her head and glanced at the innocent-looking Nangong Yu, and finally understood.

So, there was never a culprit in the first place, and everyone was just overthinking things?

Understanding this, Aunt Shen quickly nodded slightly, "Yes, Grand Consort Your Highness, I will arrange it immediately!"

"Also, prepare properly. Tomorrow, send Yuer to the Supervision Office to study for a period of time."

Since Nangong Yu also wanted to go and see, Shangguan Yuexi naturally wouldn't stop him; she would even be very happy.

Aunt Shen was slightly startled, but she immediately nodded, "Yes, Grand Consort Your Highness!"

Shangguan Yuexi squatted down and looked at Nangong Yu, "Yuer, why don't you play with your Spirit Beast for a while? Mother needs to discuss and arrange some matters with Aunt Shen, alright?"

"Okay!"

Nangong Yu nodded, turned, and walked towards the backyard with Qing Ling.

As for Sparrow Sprite and that little white snake, they naturally jumped onto Qing Ling's shoulder.

The two demons were only in the Grotto Heaven Realm, had not yet taken human form, and were not large in size, so they naturally followed Qing Ling.

That white snake, to be precise, was a White Flood Dragon!

The White Flood Dragon hatched from that White Flood Dragon Spirit Beast Egg, and Nangong Yu named it Silver Frost!

The two demons had already signed a Master-Servant Contract with Nangong Yu, becoming his Spirit Pets.

Originally, there was only the White Flood Dragon, as Sparrow Sprite had been fed by the Spirit Beast Pavilion for a year and still hadn't stepped into the Body Tempering Realm, so Shangguan Yuexi and the others didn't pay much attention.

They hadn't planned on wasting a Contract Talisman on it. After all, the lowest grade of Contract Talisman was Grade Five, and there were no lower-grade Contract Talismans, so they naturally didn't want to waste it!

But Nangong Yu understood Sparrow Sprite's situation!

The Mutated Spirit Beast, Seven-Colored Illusory Feather Sparrow!

A species almost extinct on the Xuanling Continent, and one that was currently undergoing Bloodline Awakening.

This was also the reason Nangong Yu bought it!

Not long after buying it back, Nangong Yu had Ying Mei feed it a low-grade spirit marrow, using the Spiritual Qi of the spirit marrow to help her Awaken her Bloodline!

This Little Fellow lived up to expectations, Awakening a Saint Grade Bloodline after a year with Ying Mei's help!

Afterward, it surpassed Silver Frost, reaching the Peak of the Grotto Heaven Realm in its current cultivation!

When she Broke Through the Body Tempering Realm and her cultivation advanced rapidly, Shangguan Yuexi noticed the anomaly. With little hesitation, she used a Grade Five Contract Talisman to have it sign a Master-Servant Contract with Nangong Yu.

Because of this, although Nangong Yu's surface cultivation is only at the Middle Stage of the Spirit Absorption Realm, he has two Grotto Heaven Realm Spirit Pets, making Nangong Jingqi and the others envious!

The two people and two demons arrived at the backyard.

Qing Ling suddenly knelt down and said, "Qing Ling is at fault, please punish this Young Master!"

"Alright, stand up!"

Nangong Yu shook his head slightly, "What fault could you have? I just ate the wrong thing when you weren't paying attention. It has nothing to do with you, stop wrongly taking the blame!"

"I... Qing Ling should have stayed close..."

Qing Ling was about to say more, but Nangong Yu reached out and interrupted her, saying, "No one can stay close every second, and you certainly can't. Stand up, don't overthink it."

Nangong Yu said, settling down on the swing, "I might be going to the Supervision Office to study tomorrow. The three of you might need to follow me."

"We await Young Master's orders!" Qing Ling quickly stated her position, her eyes red-rimmed, her small face filled with seriousness.

"We will all obey Master!"

Sparrow Sprite and the other demon also nodded quickly.

Nangong Yu nodded slightly, said nothing more, but his gaze involuntarily turned towards the direction of the City's West Side.

'An eerie feeling, seemingly a sensation of shared origin. What is over there?'

Nangong Yu felt doubtful in his heart.

Just now, as he was following his mother and about to enter the Princely Manor, he suddenly felt a sensation of shared origin coming from that direction, which inevitably surprised him.

One must know that he had never encountered such a situation before!

Nangong Yu's heart stirred slightly. A wisp of evil light flickered in the depths of his eyes, and he could vaguely see some things.

'It's because of the Dao Yan Evil Eye. Someone over there possesses something with the same origin as the Dao Yan Evil Eye, which is why I, who possess the Dao Yan Evil Eye, sensed it.'

'This object should be on a person. This person should be a woman, appearing in male attire, and she must have recently appeared in Qingyou Imperial City!'

Nangong Yu thought to himself. This was all he could see; the rest seemed to be obscured, and he couldn't see it. Perhaps he would only know by getting close.

'As expected of something sharing the same origin as the Dao Yan Evil Eye—it can actually obscure the Dao Yan Evil Eye's scrutiny! Truly extraordinary!'

Nangong Yu sighed slightly internally. One must know that his Dao Yan Evil Eye could spy on the information of all things, investigate matters of the past and future, see clearly the world's Karma and destiny, and explore the opportunities of the Great Dao!

Even though his low cultivation suppressed it considerably, it shouldn't be possible for an existence within the small Qingyou Empire to obscure its scrutiny.

Yet, the other party managed to do it!

Nangong Yu was tempted to go and see, but he also knew that now was not the right time.

After all, he had just had an incident. If he went and was delayed and couldn't return, creating a situation where he suddenly vanished, it would be difficult for his mother and the others not to worry.

Thinking of this, he temporarily put aside the idea of going himself and secretly sent a message via thought: "Ying Mei, send a message to Disha and the others. Has anyone recently arrived at the Clear Serenity City's West Side who is a woman disguised as a man?"

"Also, there might be unusual circumstances around her, so pay attention."

"Understood!"

Ying Mei acknowledged, and immediately began remotely questioning Disha and the others.

A moment later, Ying Mei's voice came again.

"Reporting to Master, Disha has replied. A young girl has appeared on the City's West Side who matches your description!"

Hearing this, Nangong Yu's expression brightened, "What is the situation with that young girl?"

"According to what Disha said, the young girl is named Su Xingmeng, is seventeen years old, is currently at the Peak of the Body Tempering Realm, and has not yet Cultivated a Cultivation Technique."

"Su Xingmeng arrived at Qingyou Imperial City two days ago, disguised as a man. She has been practicing medicine and saving people these two days, and secretly, there is a Spirit Venerable Realm Demon Cultivator Protecting the Dao for her!"

Hearing this, a sharp light flickered in Nangong Yu's eyes. If he hadn't guessed wrong, the person who triggered the Dao Yan Evil Eye's reaction should be Su Xingmeng.

He just didn't know what Su Xingmeng had on her person?
