Early in the morning, Liu Yunyan sat in the hall polishing her sword.

Mu Sinan walked in with a bad look on his face. Liu Yunyan teased: "What's wrong? You look so bad this morning."

"I'm almost mad at Su Nanyuan. What does she mean? I've been so humble, but she still treats me like this," Mu Sinan got angry when he thought of Su Nanyuan's attitude.

Liu Yunyan rolled her eyes at her and said, "I'm not responsible for emotional issues. I don't want to affect your mood. Go find someone else."

I don't know what Mu Sinan was thinking. In order to win back Su Nanyuan, he came up with a bad idea he heard from somewhere and actually found another girl in order to make Su Nanyuan jealous. Liu Yunyan felt that Nanyuan leaving her might be the right choice.

Mu Sinan was disappointed and left on his own initiative.

Wuqi came with morning dew on his body, "Miss, there is news from the palace that Lin Yuxuan was killed in the Heavenly Prison last night."

"Okay, I understand," Liu Yunyan continued to wipe the sword calmly. Her precious sword was stained with dirt, so she really needed to wipe it thoroughly.

"Miss?" Wuqi looked at Liu Yunyan with some doubt, "Why don't you look excited at all? After those people knew that Lin Yuxuan was killed in the Heavenly Prison, they beat gongs and drums at the gate of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, almost catching up with setting up a stage for a play. The Duke of Protectorate fell into a coma after hearing the news, and now the whole Duke of Protectorate's Mansion is in chaos."

Liu Yunyan continued to polish her sword calmly, "It is not a pity that a person like Lin Yuxuan should die, and the Protector of the Country should pay the price for doting on his child. He cannot do whatever he wants just because he is in a high position. They have clearly seen everything Lin Yuxuan has done over the years, but no one has stopped him. Why did they panic only after something happened? What were they doing before?"

"Miss is right, but I didn't expect someone to actually break into the prison and kill people," Wuqi was silent, "It's just a pity for Lin Xuanyu, who was born in such a family."

"Is she pitiful? She may not be unaware of what Lin Yuxuan has done over the years," Liu Yunyan said coldly, "No matter how well a person hides himself, there will always be a time when he is exposed. Living in the same family, seeing each other every day, she must know a little about Lin Yuxuan's dirty deeds."

"Then why did the lady still help her?" Wuqi didn't understand. Why would she still help when she knew that the other party had problems?

"Wuqi, you have to understand that these are just our assumptions. Moreover, the biggest culprit in this matter is Lin Yuxuan. Now that he is dead, this matter may come to an end," Liu Yunyan's eyes were heavy, "Maybe she really has nothing to do with these."

Liu Yunyan was more inclined to the latter. When talking to Lin Xuanyu, she was sincere in her words and did not seem like the type of person who had a lot on her mind. Lin Xuanyu might know something, but she could not just watch the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion fall into complete decline. Liu Yunyan could understand that.

"We should still think of people more simply," Wuqi nodded.

There were footsteps outside, and Mu Siyu, who had been guarding outside the house, walked in. "Yanyan, the latest news came from Jingzhao Yinfu. The more than 200 female corpses have all disappeared."

Liu Yunyan's eyes widened. "Corpses? All gone?"

"Yes, the people from Jingzhao Yinfu said that when Lin Yuxuan died, they asked the people from each family to claim the bodies of the women. But who would have thought that when they opened the room where the bodies were kept today, all the bodies disappeared, and the remains that were fished out from the bottom of the lake were gone too."

Liu Yunyan said in disbelief: "Are there still people stealing corpses these days? No, what do they want these things for?"

So many dead bodies disappeared overnight. Who would believe it if I told them?

"Are there any clues left?" Liu Yunyan didn't believe that so many bodies were taken away overnight without leaving any traces.

"Yes," Mu Siyu took out a letter from her bosom, "This is also the reason why Jingzhao Yinfu revealed this news to us. They left a letter. Take a look."

Liu Yunyan opened the letter curiously: I sincerely invite Su Nanyuan to meet in southern Xinjiang.

"They want Nan Yuan to go to Southern Xinjiang?" Liu Yunyan thought of the portrait of the woman from Southern Xinjiang in the secret passage in the palace and the inexplicably missing bodies. She was afraid that they were really related to Southern Xinjiang. "Nan Yuan is not in good health now. It's probably not a good idea for her to go now."

"I want to go," Su Nanyuan stood at the door without knowing when.

"Nan Yuan, I'm worried that your body can't take it. Your injuries haven't healed yet. The journey to Southern Xinjiang is long, I'm afraid..." Liu Yunyan was a little worried.

"I must go. Southern Xinjiang is my master's hometown. Maybe I can find some clues there, so I must go there," Su Nanyuan said firmly. "I know my own physical condition better. It's no problem."

"If you really want to go," Liu Yunyan knew Su Nanyuan's temper, "let Wuqi and the others accompany you." Wuqi and the others' kung fu are far superior to Su Nanyuan's, so safety is the top priority.

"No," Su Nanyuan and Wuqi said at the same time.

"Wuqi is the one who protects you, Yanyan, and I can't let him leave you because of me," Su Nanyuan said bluntly.

"My mission is to protect your safety, young lady. It has nothing to do with others," Wuqi said.

"Yanyan," Feng Yu walked in quickly.

"Is there any problem in the secret passage?" Liu Yunyan asked Feng Yu and Leng Yan to guard the two ends of the secret passage yesterday and observe in the dark. Feng Yu's return could only mean that something went wrong.

"Yesterday you asked us to guard there and nothing happened. But early this morning, the Sixth Princess entered the secret passage and brought a few palace maids with her. Later, she knocked those palace maids out and handed them over to the people outside. I followed them quietly and found out that the people outside were actually from southern Xinjiang," Feng Yu told Liu Yunyan exactly what he encountered today.

Southern Xinjiang again?

"Have you informed His Majesty about this?" Liu Yunyan asked Feng Yu.

"I asked Leng Yan to notify him. He should be back soon," Feng Yu nodded.

There are really many secrets hidden in southern Xinjiang. First, Liu Yunfeng's men were made into medicine men, and then so many female corpses were stolen. Now Yun Ruoyao is involved again, and even Su Nanyuan is asked to go over.

"Watch over Nanyuan and don't let her go out," Liu Yunyan instructed several people. Her heart suddenly started beating wildly. Southern Xinjiang was extremely dangerous and Su Nanyuan could not be allowed to go there.

"Yanyan, you can't do this, I must go to Southern Xinjiang," Su Nanyuan shouted unwillingly while being pulled by Mu Siyu.

"Yanyan, this is also for your safety. Nanyuan, you should not go anywhere recently," Mu Siyu knocked the man unconscious and carried him into the room.

"Keep an eye on her and don't let her leave."
