The Eastern Immortal Realm.

Su Yan, disguised as a white mouse, entered the Eastern Immortal Palace.

A familiar-looking man was handling the affairs of the Eastern Immortal Palace, appearing methodical and adept.

"Who are you?" Su Yan transformed into human form.

The man was startled by her, then glanced at her appearance and bowed respectfully, "Your subject, Duanmu Yunhua, greets Your Majesty the Empress."

The title "Empress" was something Su Yan rarely heard. However, for Su Yan, who already had all sorts of titles, they all sounded like names and were simply addressed as titles.

Su Yan sized her up, "...Duanmu Yunhua?"

Suddenly, she remembered that when she entered the human realm to seek the Heavenly Dao, she was the wife of Dongfang Yi, the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao. He was a great general of the Chu Dynasty, and his prime minister was named Duanmu Yunhua.

"So it was you." Su Yan looked at him, secretly asking Xiao Mei, "What level is he at?"

"Mid-stage Spirit Rank," Xiao Mei replied. "According to the current Immortal Realm ranking system, that's the lowest level, Spirit Immortal."

[His talent is not bad; after all, we only gave him a cultivation manual back then, and his cultivation was entirely up to him.]

[Among the human race, this is considered quite good.]

"Where is His Majesty?" Su Yan continued to ask.

Duanmu Yunhua replied, "They have disappeared. Along with His Majesty, two unborn oviparous princes have also disappeared."

Egg-born princes? They must be Yan Ze's two egg babies.

Su Yan said to Xiao Mei: "First, summon your offspring, then trace what happened to them through them?"

"Yes, host," Xiao Mei replied.

Soon, two baby eggs, still covered with defensive talismans, appeared in the system space.

Little Chichi woke up just then and saw her younger brother and older brother return. She tore open the defensive talisman, hugged them, and started 'sliding down the slide'.

Su Yan noticed that Xiao Qianzhi had woken up, but didn't bother to ask her how she was doing.

Raising her left wrist, she removed the hairpin from her head and pierced the companion mark left by Ziqi.

However! Ziqi did not return!

Even the mark of her partner on her wrist is disappearing rapidly!

Su Yan was startled and reached up to touch the little fox mark on the back of her neck, summoning Qing Linghuan.

Qing Linghuan appeared in front of him.

He had just fought with Yu Hao and hadn't yet learned of Zi Qi's disappearance from Yu Hao. Seeing a man standing in front of him, who looked quite respectable, he became suspicious and asked in a sarcastic tone, "Yan Yan, who is this man?"

"Don't be silly, he is Duanmu Yunhua, the Prime Minister of the Human Realm of the Ancestral Dragon," Su Yan explained.

Duanmu Yunhua was surprised that Su Yan knew that he had once been a prime minister.

Qing Linghuan understood. He had heard Yu Hao mention that Zu Long had gone to the human realm to become the human emperor, and that he had lived a very romantic and carefree life with three palaces and six courtyards.

"What shameful things has the King of Chu done? Tell me about them."

"..." Duanmu Yunhua was stunned. "This, His Majesty has been a man of great talent and ambition throughout his life, working diligently to lay the foundation for a prosperous era of five hundred years for the Chu Dynasty. There is nothing shameful about him."

“I summoned you here not because of him. It’s because Ziqi has disappeared. I summoned him, but the companion mark also disappeared.” Su Yan raised her snow-white left wrist for Qing Linghuan to see.

Qing Linghuan's expression turned serious.

“There’s one possibility,” he said, looking at Su Yan.

Su Yan's heart clenched. "Speak."

“Ziqi’s soul has left his body.” Qing Linghuan looked at Su Yan.

"What do you mean?" Su Yan asked in shock.

"He may have been murdered, his body possessed by another soul, and his partner mark erased. And this is the only way to remove the partner mark besides you, which is for the body and soul to be separate. At this time, Ziqi is said to be dead, but not completely dead. You can neither summon him nor regenerate him, and he is in a state of chaos."

Qing Linghuan looked at Su Yan and said, "It seems that the other party knows your background very well. And the one who knows your background best is none other than Zi Qi."

"You mean, the other party controlled Ziqi, learned about me, and even removed my partner mark."

"There might even be information about the children. I remember you told Ziqi about the children's talents?"

“…Yes.” Su Yan’s expression grew increasingly cold.

Xiao Mei sent the information she had traced back to Su Yan in the form of a video.

Su Yan played the video.

"These were brought back by Xiao Zhao and Xiao Che."

"Xiao Zhao and Xiao Che? Yan Ze's two sons?"

"Hmm." Su Yan looked at the video playing.

Ziqi placed the two baby eggs in the divine liquid and gave them a bath in the divine liquid every day.

Suddenly, Ziqi affixed a defensive talisman to each of the baby eggs. Judging from the markings on the talismans, they were made by Xiao Ba and had the blessing of the Ancestor.

Su Yan understood why the two egg babies had defensive talismans on them when they were summoned.

A black figure emanating a dense demonic aura appeared behind Ziqi!

Ziqi was prepared and turned around to unleash a quasi-god-level holy power.

However, the opponent was completely unafraid, caught it with his bare hands, and released a demonic domain, taking Ziqi and the two baby eggs with him.

Afterwards, the talismans on the eggshells of the two baby eggs were attacked by magic, but the talismans did not budge. The other party seemed to have no patience and wasted its time on the baby eggs. After attacking twice more, it threw the baby eggs into a pit and smashed two large rocks on top of them.

The video ends here.

Su Yan was trembling with anger. "Do you know who it is?"

“I can’t tell,” Qing Linghuan replied. “We should send Wen Jin over. There are probably only a handful of demonic cultivators in the Demon Realm who can easily trap Zi Qi. If we eliminate them one by one, we should be able to find some clues.”

Su Yan looked at Duanmu Yunhua, "Um, could you please leave for a moment?"

"Of course, Your Majesty, please proceed." Duanmu Yunhua hurriedly withdrew.

Su Yan immediately took off her top, revealing the Luo Tiandie on her back.

Qing Linghuan helped Su Yan pierce the Luo Tian Butterfly, and looking at Su Yan's bright red blood, she asked curiously, "Why isn't your blood divine gold?"

"Because I am not a god."

"...You spend all your time in the realm of gods, thinking you've already become a god."

"Almost there."

Su Yan summoned Wen Jin.

Wen Jin arrived with a spatula in his hand. He was cooking in the kitchen of the Shura Palace, and in the next instant, he was beside Su Yan.

"...Yan Yan? Aren't you in the God Realm?"

Su Yan looked at the spatula in his hand. "Something urgent came up. Are you cooking?"

"Hmm, Xiao Mumu wants to eat spicy magic shrimp, I'm cooking it right now," Wen Jin said, remembering her own dishes. "How about we go to the Asura Palace to talk?"

“Sure, sure, I’d love to try your cooking,” Qing Linghuan replied.

“It’s definitely not as good as Zulu’s,” Wen Jin said with a smile.

Su Yan frowned, but since the other party was a demon and she did indeed need to go to the demon realm to investigate, she agreed.

Upon arriving at the Shura Palace, Wen Jin served the stir-fried spicy demon shrimp on a plate.

Xiao Fengning and Xiao Mumu were overjoyed to see Su Yan arrive.

Su Yan hugged and kissed the two children repeatedly, then showed Wen Jin the video.
