Chapter 566: Glutton Xiao Xue!
Both Han Jing and Lan Ling were surprised: "How do we form an alliance? He has amnesia!"
Lian Xichen looked at the two people who were dumbstruck, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I believe that even if big brother has amnesia, our past bonds remain. As long as we get close to him and earn his trust, we can unite the Spirit Flame Sect and stand against Lingyou Hall. As for Beihan Palace... the first place we need to go is Beihan Palace."
"Yes! We must go to Beihan Palace. Back then, Yun Feng disappeared at Beihan Palace, and there’s been no news ever since. Regardless of anything, we must find out. If Han Qingjue really did something, I will never forgive her!" Han Jing said coldly.
Over the years, Han Jing hadn’t been without ideas, it’s just that they couldn’t gather any information from Beihan Palace. They had also reached out to the Yun Family, but the Yun Family Master was always unwilling to intervene in this matter. Yun Zidu was trapped in the Delusion Void Array, Yun Qingyao disappeared, and Yun Feng also went missing. The Yun Family feared that Lingyou Hall and Beihan Palace would target them next, so they decided not to bother with this matter.
Han Jing had Lan Ling search all over Beihan Palace but couldn’t find any trace of Yun Feng. Given their unfamiliarity with Beihan Palace, they had no choice but to temporarily give up.
"There’s no time to lose; let’s return to the Spirit Cultivation Realm tomorrow, and then we can calmly discuss our plans," Lian Xichen suggested.
Both Han Jing and Lan Ling nodded. Their purpose of coming to Yanjing City was to enlist Lian Xichen, and now that Lian Xichen has agreed to return with them and assist them fully, there’s no need to linger here.
"If that’s the case, you should stay at the mansion tonight. I’ll invite the Emperor to join us for dinner as a farewell since it’s more convenient here," Lian Xichen glanced at the two.
The two had no objections, so they stood up to return to the inn to pack, settle the room bills, and bring Xiao Xue back. Lian Xichen personally escorted them out.
After everyone left, Lian Xichen stood in the courtyard for a while before returning to the study.
Inside, someone was waiting.

In the evening, Qin Shutong specially had the palace’s Imperial Chef prepare an abundance of fine dishes, which were carefully sent to Marquis Yingwei Mansion, filling up an entire table.
Seeing the table full of delicious food, Xiao Xue excitedly hugged Qin Shutong, calling him uncle affectionately, which made Qin Shutong laugh heartily.
"Xiao Xue, why don’t you stay and return to the palace with me? I’ll make sure you eat such delicious food every day," Qin Shutong teased while holding Xiao Xue.
Looking at the table filled with appetizing dishes, Xiao Xue actually felt a bit hesitant. What should she do? It was too tempting!
She looked at Han Jing and the others, then at the delicious food, again at Han Jing and the others, and finally timidly asked Han Jing, "Mother, have you ever eaten anything tastier than this?"
Her intention was... if her mother hadn’t tasted anything better, then it must be the best. In that case, staying a few more days to try it wouldn’t be a problem, right? At worst... she’d return once she’d had her fill! There was definitely more tasty food here than in the Ghost Realm!
You know... sometimes when they were all in secluded cultivation, she was left alone with Grandpa Ghost, who only knew how to roast wild game for her, and it didn’t even taste good!
