As for the situation with the fourth Stargate, Miao Yi wasn't in the mood to think about it for the time being. After being trapped for so long, he finally got out after much difficulty. He couldn't very well run back to Hell again. He decided to think about it later. He couldn't leave the Heaven's Origin Planet for too long. He decided to return to the Heaven's Origin Planet as soon as he could.
However, when he was still halfway there, he suddenly received a message from Murong Xinghua.
Miao Yi asked, "What is it?"
Murong Xinghua: My Lord, a guest wants to see you.
Miao Yi: Who is it?
Murong Xinghua: Lord Tianyuan.
Miao Yi was speechless. He asked, "You specifically came to look for me?"
Murong Xinghua: Yes, when will Sir be back?
Miao Yi estimated the time and replied, [I'm on my way back. I'll need another three days before I can reach.]
Murong Xinghua: Sir, please hurry. The Marquis said to wait for you!
After putting away the Star Bell, Miao Yi muttered to himself, 'Why are you looking for me? It can't be because of Madam Biyue, right? Why would Madam Biyue look for me when she's missing? It can't be that it has something to do with me, right?
With the other party's identity, it was indeed not good to make them wait for too long. Miao Yi couldn't care less about hiding his identity, so he simply removed his disguise and released Charcoal. Then, he urged Charcoal to rush back at full speed.
In less than two days, Miao Yi had already arrived. He descended from the sky and landed outside the northern city gates. None of the guards dared to stop him as he flew straight into the city and landed outside the Northern District Commander's Manor.
When Murong Xinghua heard the news, he personally came out to welcome Miao Yi, and brought him to the inner courtyard.
In the courtyard, under the moonlight, the Marquis of Tianyuan stood beside the flower bed with his hands behind his back. Beside him stood a short and thick guy. It was Murong Xinghua's husband, Cao Wanxiang.
From the looks of it, Cao Wanxiang had personally accompanied him here.
Miao Yi quickly stepped forward and cupped his fists in greeting. "Greetings, Marquis. Greetings, Commander Cao."
Cao Wanxiang replied with an "En" and quickly gave Murong Xing Hua a meaningful glance. The husband and wife left together and left.
Now that there was no one else, Marquis Tianyuan slowly turned around and asked coldly, "Have you contacted your Master in the past few years?"
Miao Yi replied, "No. Head Town Lord has instructed that the Second Chief Steward will temporarily be in charge of Dong Hua Main Town Manor. She told us not to disturb her examination unless there is something particularly important."
Marquis Tianyuan said, "Contact her immediately and tell her that I have something to discuss with her."
Miao Yi obediently took out the Star Bell and shook it for a while to contact it. After a long while, he finally said in bewilderment, "Marquis, I can contact him. But the Head Garrison Commander isn't responding."
Little did he know that this was what Marquis Tianyuan was most worried about. It would be great if he couldn't get in touch with Madam Biyue to confirm her death. He was afraid that Madam Biyue would fall into the hands of the traitors and be used by them. If Madam Biyue turned to the traitors and did something humiliating to the Heavenly Court in order to survive, then he would really be a piece of sh * t.
Based on her understanding of Madam Biyue, Madam Biyue wasn't a chaste woman, nor was she a tough nut to crack. Besides, it didn't matter how tough she was when she fell into the hands of the traitors.
However, this kind of thing couldn't be made public before the result was confirmed. The reason was very simple. If Madam Biyue came back safe and sound, and this place was in an uproar, then Madam Biyue might be suspected of being a prisoner of the traitors. Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?
Because of this, he personally went out in secret and searched almost all of Madam Biyue's important subordinates. He held on to the last glimmer of hope to see if anyone could communicate with Madam Biyue. Once it was confirmed that something had happened, he could prepare in advance.
It was the same on Miao Yi's side. His hopes were dashed.
After a moment of silence, Marquis Tianyuan said in a low voice, "Who told you to leave your post without permission?"
Miao Yi replied, "I just went out to visit a friend. I didn't delay my official business."
Marquis Tianyuan was in a bad mood, and his expression was also unpleasant. He directly reprimanded, "You're so troublesome in Donghua Town Manor. I'm warning you, don't think that I can't deal with you just because your Head Garrison Commander isn't here. Behave yourself. If you cause any more trouble, I'll make you pay!"
His attitude towards Miao Yi had been changing, sometimes even a little crazy.
"Yes!" Miao Yi respectfully answered.
"Also, don't tell anyone that I'm here today. Otherwise, I won't let you off easily. Do you hear me?"
"Yes!"
"Contact your Head Garrison Commander more often when you have time. If there's any news, immediately inform Second Chief Supervisor Lan Xiang."
"Yes!"
"Get lost!"
"Yes!" Miao Yi obediently retreated after being scolded.
When he walked out of the North District Commander's Manor, Commander Niu had a calm expression. This bit of humiliation was nothing, at least it was much better than a certain someone.
In view of Madam Biyue's experience, Miao Yi didn't know what to think. That night, he went to Qin Weiwei's shop through the underground tunnel. Qin Weiwei was already gone, and only Fa Yin was left.
Miao Yi's sudden visit made Fa Yin feel very strange. How many years had it been? This was the first time!
When the two people in the room met, Fa Yin looked at Miao Yi strangely. She circled Miao Yi and asked curiously, "Why are you here today?"
"Stop circling!" Miao Yi suddenly reached out and grabbed Fa Yin's hand. With a tug, Fa Yin fell into his arms and was hugged tightly.
Fa Yin stared at him with wide eyes. She could feel the aura of a beast. She could only watch as Miao Yi carried her bridal style and carried her into her paradise. This night was truly an indescribable experience. She finally understood what it felt like to be in the bridal chamber …
Early the next morning, Fa Yin stared blankly at the empty pillow beside her. Her hair was disheveled, and her upper body was bare. She was like a round jade sculpture. Her plump breasts were as white as snow, without the slightest hint of sagging. The curves of her upper body were extremely beautiful, and her skin was as white as a baby's.
At noon, someone from Yunrong Hall came to make arrangements for her. Qin Weiwei left. Fa Yin was too naive. It would be a waste to keep this shop. Yun Zhiqiu arranged for her to stay with Ji Meili. This shop was going to be sold.
Three days later, at night, Miao Yi suddenly arrived at Yu Nujiao's shop. Just like in the past, Yu Nujiao was stripped naked again.
She thought Miao Yi was toying with her like in the past. Only when her limbs gave out and an uninvited guest barged in did she realize that she had really been taken in this time …
Three days later, the Sect Master of the Vital Qi Sect, Reverend Yu Ling, arrived at the City Guard Palace. Together with her was the founder of the Vital Qi Sect, and the current Master of Ceremonies of the Ugly Star Monarch's Manor, Reverend Qi Wu.
Reverend Qi Wu's previous position was even more leisurely. Due to the rise of the Vital Qi Grocery Store, he could now be considered someone who could frequently meet and speak with the Ugly Star Monarch. However, he wasn't good at flattery, so he didn't manage to obtain any real power or authority.
Seeing the two of them, Bao Lian, who had come out to greet the guests, was both surprised and delighted. He quickly went in to greet them.
"Sect Master Yu Ling." Inside the garden, Miao Yi cupped his fists and said, "This must be the Master of Ceremonies of the Star Monarch's Manor. Grand Commander Niu Youde of the Heaven's Avenue on the Heaven's Origin Planet greets you."
Reverend Qi Wu waved his hand and shook his head, "It's just a leisurely position. However, it's also a peaceful one. If I were to cause a ruckus like the Grand Commander, I'm afraid it would be troublesome. With my personality, I'm not suited to stay in the Heavenly Court. It's not necessarily a bad thing to be able to hide in peace."
Miao Yi smiled. He knew that Reverend Qi Wu wasn't suited to stay in the Heavenly Court after all. He knew that Reverend Qi Wu had no choice but to join the Heavenly Court. Once a cultivator from every sect in the world broke through the Rainbow Lotus realm, they would have to obediently join the Heavenly Court.
"The Master of Ceremonies sure is open-minded!" Miao Yi said politely. He then turned around and invited Reverend Qi Wu in, "Please come in!"
They entered the room and took their seats. After Bao Lian served them tea, he could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the room was a little strange.
In the end, it was Reverend Yu Ling who put down her teacup and spoke first, "Bao Lian, your Grand Master and I are here because I've found a more suitable position for you up there. I'd like to transfer you over from the Grand Commander's place. That way, it'll be easier for us to take care of you."
Bao Lian was stunned. He slowly turned his gaze to Miao Yi, only to realize that Miao Yi already knew about this from the start. He shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Grand Master. However, I don't want to go. I'm fine with staying here."
The room fell silent for a moment. Then, Miao Yi took out a jade archive and sighed, "Bao Lian, you should go. It's more suitable for you to stay with the Master of Ceremonies. I've already written the order to release you."
In truth, he was the one who approached Reverend Yu Ling about this. He'd already contacted her on his way back to Heaven's Origin Planet. He would soon have more trusted subordinates by his side. It wouldn't be appropriate for Bao Lian to stay with him. On the other hand, it was out of goodwill. His future was uncertain, and he didn't want to drag her down.
Bao Lian's expression changed. "My lord, did Bao Lian do something wrong? Is it because Bao Lian keeps complaining about Commander Xu and meddling in matters that shouldn't be handled? "
Miao Yi said, "There's nothing wrong with it. It's just that it's not appropriate for a man and a woman to be together. It'll affect your reputation in the long run. This is for your own good. There's nothing to argue about. It's settled then! " He then took out a storage bangle and placed it on top of the jade archive, then pushed it to the table. "You've been with me for so many years. It's been hard on you, but I don't have anything to repay you with. I hope you don't mind this small token of my appreciation."
Bao Lian bit his lip hard, then turned around and ran out of the room.
The three people in the room stood up at once. Miao Yi picked up the items on the table and handed them to Reverend Yu Ling. The latter sighed.
Reverend Qi Wu also took out the decree he'd received along the way. The Dong Hua Main Town Manor had also agreed to it. Even though he didn't have any real authority, he was still by the Star Monarch's side, so he still had some authority.
After handing over the items to Miao Yi, the two parties parted ways. Bao Lian didn't show his face again, and Miao Yi sat quietly in the hall with his eyes closed …
A few days later, Yang Qing, Yan Xiu, Yang Zhaoqing, and the others were transferred back from Kou Wenlan's side. They stayed under Fu Qing and Invincible Eagle for a month or so, familiarizing themselves with the situation in Sky Street. After that, Fu Qing and Invincible Eagle recommended them into the City Guard Palace, with the reason being that the Grand Commander didn't have anyone to take care of her.
With their cultivation and rank, they were only supposed to run errands inside and outside the City Guard Palace for now.
On the day they entered the palace, Miao Yi went straight to Yang Qing. Under the shade of the ivy, he asked, "I've already spoken to Xiahou Longcheng. When will you be leaving?"
Yang Qing replied, "I can leave at any time. I'm just waiting for my lord's orders."
Miao Yi said, "Then don't delay. I've also spoken to Fu Qing. Qing Feng will help you run errands."
Yang Qing said, "Xiahou Longcheng is greedy. He needs a sum of money."
Miao Yi said, "Give it to the Madam."
