Zhonglingqi stood in front of the mountain gate, stopped Yu Shiqi who was about to go down the mountain, and said with care: "If there is no accident when you arrive at the villa, come back early, Xiao Meng and Dong'er, I will wait for you in the imperial capital."

"I understand, I won't delay the promised painting for the royal family for you." Yu Shiqi replied, walking around him and walking towards the stone steps down the mountain.

Zhonglingqi turned around and looked at his back and scratched his hair, and smiled bitterly: "It's not because of this... the scenery in the imperial capital is good, you should see it."

"Don't cause trouble in the imperial capital. I promised my mother to take good care of you. Now I can't follow you anymore. I hope you can do it yourself." Yu Shiqi walked down without looking back, and the voice came back from the Ye Feng.

Zhonglingqi grabbed his hair even more awkwardly. Meng Yuzhou next to him couldn't help laughing: "Son made his father do his best. This is the first time I have seen him in my life. Zhonglingqi, you are a father who is quite a failure."

"Oh..." He sighed, thinking that he had never felt that he had succeeded.

"Zhier's sense of responsibility and justice is obviously what I like." Meng Yuzhou smiled and looked at the two people down the mountain and said softly, "Yining gave birth to a good son for you."

"Isn't this more thanks to the teachings of the head of Tongfeng Sect and the wife of the head?" Zhongling Qi shrugged.

"That's right." Meng Yuzhou nodded and smiled.

Zhonglingqi was silent for a long time, and suddenly slowly held her hands, pressing against each other's palms. Meng Yuzhou could feel his mood seemed a little uneasy.

"What's wrong? Are you worried about Zhi'er?" Meng Yuzhou shook his hand gently and said softly in his heart, "If you can't worry, let's catch up. The imperial capital was bored many years ago, and it doesn't matter whether it goes or not. Besides, this time I originally planned to accompany Zhi'er to the imperial capital, right?"

Zhong Lingqi was silent for a moment and shook his head: "I'm not particularly worried about Zhi'er, I just vaguely... I have some bad premonitions about this trip to the imperial capital..."

"Traveling to the imperial capital..." Meng Yuzhou looked at him in confusion and asked carefully: "Are you still planning to rescue the emperor?"

Zhonglingqi did not hesitate much and quickly replied: "How can I let Yining and Zhier worry about me again? Mu Zhiren and my destiny may have gone to their respective divisions when I chose to give up becoming the commander of the Jinyiwei."

Meng Yuzhou breathed a sigh of relief. If Zhonglingqi insisted on sacrificing his life for his emperor friend, she would have no other choice except to support him with all her strength. Now Zhonglingqi can see through and let go of this worry, there should be no change in this trip to the imperial capital.

...

Yu Shiqi and Yu Youci walked along the way, leaving Yunling overnight to the location of the deserted villa in Yuezhou. On the morning of the third day, the two entered the mountain and crossed the last cable bridge to the gate of the villa.

They were traveling day and night, and they had almost no rest for one day and two nights, which made them both look a little tired.

Because Yu Shiqi is no longer the identity of Yun Zhongjian, when he entered the villa, he was carefully checked by the guard guards guarding in front of the door. If Yu Youci had not explained to the guards with the stainless steel seal talisman of Yun Zhongjian, he would have almost never been able to let Yu Shiqi enter the door smoothly.

"The villa's guard seems to be more strict than before." Yu Shiqi said with emotion after crossing the gate.

"After all, that incident happened not long ago..." Yu Youci replied in a low voice.

The "that thing" she mentioned naturally refers to the accident where Qiu Wanding escaped from the dungeon as bloodthirsty as life.

The bluestone road extends forward, and at the end is the Red Fort, and the sect leaders will most likely stay there when they have nothing to do.

"With my qualifications, I'm afraid I'm not qualified to enter the Red Fort Conference Hall." Yu Youci accompanied him to approach the Red Fort and said nervously: "When you get there, we should be stopped. What are you going to do then?"

"My mother is inside, and I have to go in and see her first." Yu Shiqi's answer was simple and straightforward.

Yu Youci was stunned for a moment, laughed secretly, and soon returned to his calm expression: "I think... I'd better go and find Teacher Bushuchuan for help. After all, Red Fort is a major land in the desolate sect, and it may not work if you want to break through."

Yu Shiqi thought about it and it was the same. Although it seemed that there were only a few guards in the clouds outside the Red Fort, Wan had a conflict and misunderstanding, and maybe he could see the spectacular scene of the elite guards in the villa. That would not be fun at all.

"At this time, the teacher should be in the practice field. Let's go and take a look."

After two years of violation, Yu Shiqi was already a little unfamiliar with the roads inside the villa, and many places were quite different from those in his memory. I believe that in order to ensure the overall defense, the roads inside the villa had changed in the past two years. Yu Youci took him along a path he had never walked before, and soon arrived at the first training ground located west of Hongbao.

When the two arrived, they met a handsome man who walked out of the training ground. He was handsome with his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and was covered with snow-embroidered fur and clean and tidy. He was a white-shaped jade pendant hanging on his waist. He turned out to be Bai Yi, the current acting leader of the Desolate Sect.

Yu Shiqi still had an impression of this person and hurriedly saluted Bai Yi with Yu Youci.

"Master Master."

"Yeah." It seemed that because of the cold weather, Bai Yi's hands were tightly placed in his sleeves. He nodded slightly to the two who saluted him and passed by them. Suddenly, the light from the corner of his eyes fell on Yu Shiqi's sword, his expression was stunned and his steps stopped.

"Are you a swordsman of Yunzhong Sword?" Bai Yi asked behind Yu Shiqi.

Yu Shiqi slowly turned around and replied, "Master, I am Yu Yanzhi, the person who left Yunzhongjian two years ago."

"Leaving Yunzhongjian two years ago... I have a little impression of you saying this." Bai Yi nodded, "Why are you back?"

Yu Youci spoke to him: "Master, my brother has important matters to discuss with the Sect Master Jiuque and Sect Master Poxiao, but we have no right to enter the Red Fort, so we want to ask the teacher for help."

"Is that? Then you are wrong. The two Teng Sect Masters are not in the villa now." Bai Yi said regretfully, "They just set off yesterday."

"What...they left? Where did they go?" Yu Shiqi asked in surprise.

Unexpectedly, my mother and Fuji Antong left before he and Xiaoci came. By the distance, they had only returned not long after. Is it an important task to leave the villa again immediately?

Bai Yi frowned and said, "You are no longer Yunzhongjian. You shouldn't inquire about the whereabouts of the two sect masters."

"Yes...but..." Yu Shiqi had to admit that his words made sense. As an outsider, it was really hard to inquire about the actions of the sect leader. In order to let Bai Yik tell his mother's whereabouts, he planned to confess his identity.

Bai Yi asked with a serious look before he explained that he was Teng Yining's child: "Yu Yanzhi, can you show me the sword you are carrying?"
