Several people worked together to carry the coachman, Qingfeng and Hongye onto the carriage.

You Huang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since the capital is not peaceful now, we should all go home as soon as possible."

Shen Huainian hesitated for a long time before asking, "Cousin Youhuang, I always feel that something big is going to happen in Tiandu recently. Since you are from the Xuanmen, can you give me some advice?"

"There is a powerful thing in Tiandu, and we are trying to find a way to deal with it." You Huang didn't dare to say it too clearly, and said to the three brothers and sisters: "If you don't have anything to do recently, try not to go out at night, and don't tear up the talismans I gave you."

"Understood, let's protect ourselves."

Shen Huainian bowed to Youhuang. He had just witnessed the power of the mysterious art with his own eyes and now believed it without a doubt.

For fear that others would come over and continue to question him, Youhuang did not dare to stay any longer. After Chu Youyou came out, he drove the carriage back home himself.

Chu Yunduan and Chu Yunze followed behind, leading Qingfeng and Hongye's horses respectively. No one spoke along the way. Chu Youyou was so scared when she saw the three people fainted that she squeezed together with Youhuang.

Return to the Wushenhou Mansion.

You Huang ordered his men to settle the three people, and then went to report the situation to Shen Zhaojun.

Shen Zhaojun pondered for a moment and said, "I'm glad you're all okay. It seems someone couldn't help but attack you."

"Oh, by the way, someone gave me this thing." You Huang took out the box and opened it, saying, "Two Buddhist relics. I plan to find the person who gave them the gift and return them to their original owner."

"Who gave you such a valuable gift?" Shen Zhaojun asked in surprise as he looked at the relics in the box.

"Mr. Yin said it was a middle-aged man, but he didn't see his face clearly." You Huang stared at the relic and asked, "Are there any relics missing from Xueyuan Temple or Fenghua Temple?"

"I haven't heard of any relics in those two places, and there hasn't been any news of any eminent monk passing away recently..." Shen Zhaojun thought carefully and said, "You are quite familiar with the Tianji Pavilion. Ask them to help you find out. It's better than us just guessing here."

"Ok."

Youhuang was too lazy to think about it.

After putting away the relic, Youhuang sat there in a trance.

Tian Ling hurried in from Tianji Pavilion and said, "I just received a message that a demon cultivator took control of Chu Youhuang's driver and guards. The three of them teamed up to attack Chu Youhuang, but luckily the little girl easily resolved the situation."

"Who is so desperate as to launch a sneak attack on Chu Youhuang?" Guangbai asked with a smile.

"It's a test." Xue Zun said calmly: "Gu Xi has started to attack the cultivators, reminding everyone to be careful when going out."

"He is really brave." Bian Chen sighed, and Xue Zun snorted coldly: "The one who is brave is the master behind him, who dares to let the dog he feeds out for a walk."

"Are people from the demon world supporting this?"

"It's not clear yet, but..."

Xue Zun paused and said, "Xu Sibai said that the customer who bought the Zhatian is no longer alive, and the mask is nowhere to be found."

They immediately understood that a powerful demon from the demon world had also come to Tiandu. Bian Chen sighed and said, "If the other party doesn't take action, our plan may be disrupted at any time."

"I am worried that they will make a feint to the east and attack in the west."

Xue Zun expressed his concerns: "When we put all our efforts into dealing with Gu Xi, they will definitely take action."

He could feel that there was a dark hand behind everything, but he didn't know whether that person's purpose was his life or the artifact on the little girl.

The next day.

Youhuang went to school as usual.

Qingfeng, Hongye and the coachman were very weak after waking up.

Chu Ce personally escorted his daughter to school. It was no small matter that his daughter was ambushed by someone.

When passing the place where Gu Ziru died, You Huang felt a pair of eyes staring at their carriage.

He lifted the curtain and looked outside, but found nothing. Chu Yunduan came over and said, "Huang'er, what's wrong? Did you find anything?"

"I feel like someone is spying on us." You Huang answered truthfully. Chu Yunduan immediately glanced around and said, "There's nothing suspicious going on. Don't be nervous."

"Maybe I'm overthinking it."

Youhuang knew that the other party would not give up easily and would definitely look for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

When they got outside the palace school, Chu Ce said to his daughter, "Daddy will pick you up in the afternoon. Just listen to the class and don't worry about what's happening outside."

"Remind the family members not to go out unless necessary. Also..." You Huang thought for a moment and said, "Tell Fourth Uncle to return to Tiandu as soon as possible after finishing his work outside. Demons are rampant now, and it is not safe for him to be outside alone."

"I understand. You can go in."

Chu Ce handed the book box to his daughter and watched her enter the gate before going to court.

When they got outside the palace gate, Minister Li came over and said, "I heard that Lingshou almost got into trouble yesterday. I wonder who did it?"

"The coachman and the guard were possessed by evil spirits and attacked the master. Fortunately..." Chu Ce lowered his voice and said, "Fortunately, my daughter knows some mysterious techniques and cleared the evil spirits from the three people in time, so that no bigger commotion was caused."

"The world is really in chaos nowadays..." Minister Li also lowered his voice and said, "I heard that Prince Fu's grandson was found, and he has turned into a mummy."

"This..." Chu Ce was so surprised that he was speechless.

"Prince Fu's old wife has just gone in to see His Majesty. It seems that His Majesty is having a headache."

Minister Li thought about it and said, "A person who kills people and then turns them into mummies is definitely not an ordinary person. Your Majesty is afraid that there is nothing you can do about it."

After some thought, Chu Ce said, "I have heard from my daughter that when practicing magic, cultivators will absorb the flesh and blood of living people. The younger the person, the greater the power contained in the flesh and blood."

"really?"

"really."

Thinking of his daughter's reminder, Chu Ce said, "Magic cultivators prefer to be active at night, so try not to go out at night."

Minister Li immediately bowed, and seeing that the time was almost up, the two of them walked into the palace gate with their officials. It was unknown what issue they would discuss today.

Royal study room.

The empress rubbed her brows with a headache.

Looking at the old princess kneeling down and crying, he said, "I am also very sad about Cheng Xuan's death. I have sent a message to the government office, asking them to send more people to investigate."

"Xuan'er wasn't killed by anyone. The people in the government office couldn't catch the murderer..." Prince Fu's old wife gritted her teeth and said, "He was sucked dry of blood and flesh by a demon. The daughter of Marquis Wushen is the disciple of Fairy Xuehai. Only she can slay demons and exorcise monsters."

The empress was displeased when she heard this: "Uncle, the world is clear and bright under the emperor's feet, where can there be any demons?"

Seeing that the empress did not believe it, the old princess of Prince Fu immediately said, "Your Majesty, if you had seen Xuan'er's body with your own eyes, you would have believed that there really are demons in the world."

"Xuan'er is not the first person to be sucked dry..." The old princess of Prince Fu hesitated and said, "Two bodies were found in the government office not long ago. One was from the dining hall of the palace school, and the other was a servant in the house of Duke Qi's beloved daughter. If we don't stop it in time, more people will be killed."

"Please allow me to think about this matter again..." The empress also had a headache, and after a moment she said, "I will be attending the morning court soon, so I will ask for your opinions."
