Can't find Yaoyao?
Huangfu Chen stood on the island tower and looked at the territory that Zhao Mingxiao had divided. That was the only place that he had not searched. Zhao Tianji said that he had sent someone to sneak in and search, but they did not find Yaoyao at all.

Yaoyao must have been captured by Zhao Mingxiao. Zhao Mingxiao was an ambitious and scheming person. He should know that Yaoyao was a princess. Once he established a nation, Yaoyao would be the best hostage to threaten Mo Rongzhan.
"The news of Zhao Mingxiao establishing a nation has been spread." Zhao Tianji walked behind Huangfu Chen and looked at the stone forest in the distance. "Mo Rongzhan is outside the stone array."
Huangfu Chen was stunned and looked in the direction of the stone forest. "Mo Rongzhan is here?"
Zhao Tianji nodded. "And he brought many people with him. If he can't break the array, he might be trapped in the stone array."
"He won't be trapped," Huangfu Chen said calmly and confidently. "The Zhao Family Island should be the one to worry."
"What do you mean?" Zhao Tianji raised his eyebrows and looked at Huangfu Chen. Was Mo Rongzhan an array master? The people on the island spent decades to break the stone array, and they still couldn't break it. Could Mo Rongzhan really come in?
Huang Fuchen smirked. "Do you know why I was able to break the array formation? Do you know who set up this stone array formation?"
"Our ancestor's daughter-in-law, Qi Yanling's guard. I heard that he is a descendant of the Jiang Family. His name is Ah Shi." Zhao Tianji pursed his lips. No one on the Zhao Family Island liked Qi Yanling, let alone Ah Shi who set up the array.
"That's right, it's Grandpa Jiang." Huangfu Chen pointed at the stone forest in front. "Do you think that your grandfather spent decades changing the array can stop Grandpa Jiang?"
Zhao Tianji's eyes widened. "Jiang Ah Shi is still alive? Bullshit! Is he over a hundred years old?"
"Of course!" Huangfu Chen looked at him indifferently. "Do you think that the elixir of immortality that so many people chased after the descendants of the Jiang Family?"
"…" Zhao Tianji's jaw almost dropped. "Is there really an elixir of immortality in this world?"
Huang Fuchen smiled. "Of course not. It's just some internal energy and therapy."
"Then … is Qi Yanling still alive?" Zhao Tianji was dumbfounded. The biggest enemy of the Zhao Family Island was Qi Yanling.
"He must have passed away," Huangfu Chen said with a smile.
Zhao Tianji pursed his lips, an indescribable feeling welling up in his heart. He turned his head to look at the tranquil stone forest. What kind of storm was raging outside the stone array?
"If Zhao Mingxiao uses Yaoyao to threaten Mo Rongzhan," a cold light flashed in Huangfu Chen's eyes, "he will definitely die."
"Before he starts fighting with Mo Rongzhan, I must suppress him. Otherwise," Zhao Tianji glanced around, "more islanders will be implicated by him."
"Husband, do you really want to become like this with Ah Ji?" Mu Qing looked at the man standing in front of her and suddenly found that Zhao Mingxiao, whom she had known for more than ten years, had become very strange.
Zhao Mingxiao said coldly, "Since he doesn't treat me as a brother, why should I care so much?"
"Why wouldn't Ah Ji treat you as a brother? For so many years, he left the Zhao Family Island and didn't care about what you did. Isn't that enough?" Mu Qing asked, "You're too impatient."
"You think I will fail?" Zhao Mingxiao turned around. Everyone thought he was too impatient, but he had been preparing for so many years. If he waited any longer, Mo Rongzhan's Jin Kingdom would become even more powerful, and then he would have even less chance to establish a country.
Mu Qing said, "What do you think the chances of winning are? The people on our island have never experienced war. Even if they are familiar with water, being familiar with it is different from fighting in the water!"
"All these years, do you think they have only been fishing?" Zhao Mingxiao sneered and asked, "Mu Qing, I have waited for this day for a long time and prepared for a long time. No matter who it is, they can't ruin my plans."
"Back then, it was you who replaced the letter I wrote to Huangfu Chen, right?" Mu Qing asked in a low voice.
Zhao Mingxiao's eyes were frosty. He looked down at Mu Qing and said, "Seeing him come back, you want to go back to him again?"
Mu Qing looked at him blankly and said, "Why would you think that? Since I have already married you, why would I think about anything else? You used my hand to write to Huangfu Chen and tricked him to go to the Spirit Snake Island. You set a trap on the Spirit Snake Island to kill him. You didn't kill him because you wanted to marry me, but for today, right?"
Zhao Mingxiao gently touched Mu Qing's temples and said, "Don't think too much, Mu Qing. You will be my Empress in the future. I will give you the most luxurious life and take you away from this Zhao Family Island."
But these were not what she wanted. Mu Qing smiled bitterly in her heart and said, "I have long been used to life on the Zhao Family Island. I have never thought of leaving."
Zhao Mingxiao's face darkened and he looked obviously unhappy. "Then what do you want?"
"Did you capture Yaoyao?" Mu Qing asked in a low voice.
"Ah Ji sent someone to find you, didn't he?" Zhao Mingxiao asked coldly.
Mu Qing said, "Yaoyao is innocent. Why do you have to capture her?"
"She is the princess of the Jin Kingdom. With her in my hands, she can be a hostage," Zhao Mingxiao said.
"But she is Huangfu Chen's disciple. If you do this, you will anger him," Mu Qing said hurriedly. She knew that Huangfu Chen was not as harmless as he looked.
Zhao Mingxiao impatiently waved her hand away and said, "Who does Huangfu Chen think he is? So what if I anger him? You are not allowed to see Ah Ji's people in the future. Otherwise, don't force me to lock you up."
"Husband!" Mu Qing's expression changed.
"Master!" Someone outside shouted anxiously, "Your Majesty, bad news! There are people outside the stone array. There are two warships!"
Zhao Mingxiao's expression changed and he suddenly strode out. "What did you say?"
"The guards at the stone forest came back to report that someone is breaking into the stone array."
"Do you know who it is?" Zhao Ming Xiao did not pay any more attention to Mu Qing and boldly walked outside. He wanted to see just who dared to break into the stone formation.
The person who came to report said, "The word 'Jin' is written on the war flag."
Zhao Mingxiao suddenly stopped and said, "It's the Jin Kingdom's warships!"
"It seems so. Master, can they break the stone array?"
Zhao Mingxiao snorted coldly and said, "Do you think anyone can break the stone array? Go and get Mr. Ye Shi."
"Yes."
Mu Qing stopped Zhao Mingxiao who had already walked to the door and said, "Xiao, go and find Ah Ji. If you don't join forces, how can you resist the Jin Kingdom's warships?"
Zhao Mingxiao did not say anything and turned to leave.
