Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

With that, the white wolf put the scroll in its mouth and walked up to Ying Yufu.

Everyone held their breath in suspense, but Ying Yufu was not afraid at all. She took the scroll directly from the white wolf's mouth, unfolded it, and was immediately stunned.

"White Wolf, are you sure the person in this painting is me?"

Ying Yufu looked at the white wolf, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

The white wolf glanced at the painting, then looked at Ying Yufu and replied, "Goddess, this painting depicts you. I recognized you because of this painting!"

A hint of confusion appeared in Ying Yufu's eyes.

She couldn't help but look at the painting again. It depicted a dark human figure with thick eyebrows, large eyes, a bulbous nose, and a square mouth that looked as if it could swallow a cow whole.

Ying Yufu's expression stiffened, and she put the scroll away. "I'm putting this scroll away. Do you agree?"

The white wolf said, "Goddess, do you also like this portrait? I agree, you can keep it. Anyway, our wolf clan has many more portraits of you."

Not only us, but all kinds of beasts have it; now it's spread everywhere.

Ying Yufu's vision went black in an instant.

Her eyes widened, and she looked like she was about to shatter.

"Goddess, we'll be leaving now. Look, your friend is so scared he can't even stand up straight."

The white wolf is very considerate and genuine.

Following the white wolf's gaze, Ying Yufu saw Young Master Jiang and his three companions sitting on the ground, shivering. A tattered tent covered their bodies, leaving only their heads exposed.

Ying Yufu said, "Alright, you can go now."

Watching the white wolves leave, Ying Yufu looked down at the painting again.

At this moment, the White Tiger Army lowered their guard, and they looked at Ying Yufu with utmost respect.

The little master truly lives up to her reputation as a goddess; she can communicate with wild beasts and even command their utmost respect.

However, it is unknown what is depicted on that scroll.

Behind Ying Yufu, Shangguan Fei took a deep breath, excitedly grasped Ying Yufu's hand, and said, "Fu'er, come with me."

Ying Yufu returned to the tent with Shangguan Fei, only to find Shangguan Fei's expression serious. "Fu'er, who knows about this ability to communicate with wild beasts?"

Ying Yufu immediately understood Shangguan Fei's concerns. She said, "Don't worry, Big Cousin. I only recently acquired this ability. I didn't have it before, so only those present today know about it."

Shangguan Fei breathed a sigh of relief, looked outside, and her eyes sharpened.

Seeing the murderous glint in her eyes, Ying Yufu couldn't help but remind her, "Big Cousin, you can't touch that Young Master Jiang and Miss Jiang."

Shangguan Fei said, "I know, they have special identities."

Ying Yufu said, "Big Cousin, don't be afraid. The fact that they can communicate with wild beasts is unbelievable. Even if they tell others, no one will believe them."

Besides, compared to being able to communicate with wild beasts, the fact that auspicious snow fell from the sky before me is obviously more astonishing. I'm not afraid.

Shangguan Fei said, "We still need to warn them; it would be best if we could shut them up..."

"I have a way," Shangguan Sheng's voice came from outside.

He lifted the curtain and walked in, his eyes gleaming with a deep, dark light. "All we need to do is place a Gu on them to stop them from talking nonsense."

Ying Yufu disagreed, saying, "Sheng'er, if you use Gu worms to control others, you will also have to pay the price. Unless absolutely necessary, I do not agree with you using Gu lightly."

It's just the ability to communicate with wild beasts; don't worry about it. My reputation as a goddess has already spread, so one more thing won't make a difference.

Shangguan Fei and Shangguan Sheng looked at her with concern. Ying Yufu chuckled softly and said, "Moreover, the people who know about this are probably not just those we've met; there are others as well."

"Is there someone else?" Shangguan Fei's heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously looked outside the tent, her expression wary.

Shangguan Sheng's expression darkened, and he looked outside.

Ying Yufu lifted the curtain and went out. She stood outside the tent and called out into the woods, "Come out, it's the third tree from the outside, the fourth tree, fifty meters away."

Everyone stared at Ying Yufu in surprise.

A hint of surprise flashed in Yu Li's eyes; her young master's five senses were too strong.

"Miss Mu is indeed extraordinary."

Two people swooped down from the third tree fifty meters away. The one who spoke was Rong Qing.

He knew Ying Yufu's identity, yet he called her Miss Mu, which was his way of telling them that he had been secretly following her since the beginning of the inn.

The other person was dressed in black and landed a few steps behind Rong Qing; he was probably Rong Qing's guard.

Just then, another man in black leaped down from the fourth tree fifty meters away and stood behind Rong Qing.

These two, including Rong Qing, were both experts, so it's no wonder they followed them secretly without being noticed.

Ying Yufu was surprised, "Young Master Rong, is that you?"

Rong Qing smiled and said, "I heard that Miss Mu and her party are going south. I also want to go south and would like to travel with Miss Mu and the others, but I was afraid of being rejected, so I secretly followed them. I have no ill intentions. Please don't misunderstand, Miss Mu."

"Young Master Rong, we are not acquainted with you."

Ying Yufu said calmly.

Initially, Rong Qing was traveling with Princess Mingluan, Wu Lingduo, and Su Jinyu. She had no good feelings towards the other three. Since Rong Qing was mingling with them, Ying Yufu could not possibly develop any good feelings towards him or lower her guard.

Rong Qing sighed and said, "I know that Miss Mu has some misunderstandings about me, but I am definitely not what Miss Mu sees me as. Please give me a chance to explain my position."

Ying Yufu frowned.

Why is Rong Qing so eager to get close to her?

Seeing that she was unmoved, Rong Qing said, "Miss Mu, I am a member of the Rong family of Xilin Kingdom. After the Rong family was wiped out, I escaped."

I was with Mingluan and the others earlier only because I wanted to use their influence; there was no other reason.

Miss Mu, you may not know this, but I have a great-aunt who was once Consort Li of the Western Lin Emperor. Consort Li gave birth to a prince with naturally orange eyes, but the Western Lin Emperor was wary of her. In one night, not only Consort Li died, but the newborn prince also died.

To the outside world, Emperor Xilin said that Consort Li had a difficult childbirth, resulting in the death of both mother and child.

In fact, the midwife sent the little prince with naturally orange eyes out of the palace, so the little prince actually survived.

If we calculate his age, that young prince should be twenty-nine this year.

Ying Yufu was taken aback, and she immediately thought of her uncle.

My uncle was born with orange eyes, and he's exactly twenty-nine this year.

Ying Yufu was shocked. Could it be that her uncle was really the young prince of the Xilin royal family?

Rong Qing looked at Yu Li.

"General Yu Li, you should be aware of your own identity, right? Your orange eyes are too obvious; both the Shangguan family and Emperor Bei Xuan can see them."

Yu Li walked over, giving Rong Qing a sharp look. "What do you want to say?"

Rong Qing said, "General Yu Li, according to seniority, I should call you cousin. You may not care about the destruction of the Rong family, but you should care about the revenge for your birth mother and your own revenge, right?"

Yu Li snorted lightly, "Kid, you want me to get involved in this? You're overthinking it."

If given the chance, I wouldn't mind killing the Western Lin Emperor, but under normal circumstances, I would consider the Northern Xuan and the Shangguan family first.

Rong Qing laughed and said, "So you admit it? That's great! I wasn't asking you to do anything; I just wanted to prove to Miss Mu that we're truly on the same side!"

Rong Qing looked at Ying Yufu and said, "Miss Mu, you see, General Yu Li himself has admitted that his mother is a member of the Rong family, and I am also a member of the Rong family. We have a common enemy, and I really have no ill intentions towards you."

[Ding! The face-slapping mechanism has been triggered. Please help Rong Qing avenge the Rong family and Consort Li, and take revenge on fifteen enemies, including Emperor Xilin.]

The system's voice suddenly rang in Ying Yufu's mind.

Ying Yufu frowned. "Little Dian, why should I help Rong Qing? I can help my uncle."

Ying Yufu still didn't like Rong Qing.

Xiao Dian said: [Host, I understand you don't like Rong Qing, but it's okay, this person might help you complete another task.]

Host, have you forgotten that you have a long-term face-slapping mechanism? Within a year, you must help Chiyue ascend the throne.

[Xiao Dian, I haven't forgotten this mission, but what does it have to do with Rong Qing? Is it indispensable?]

Xiao Dian said, "It's not that he's indispensable. It's just that the powerful and influential families in Xilin Kingdom are deeply entrenched, and the destruction of the Rong family was a key factor in this."

Ying Yufu found out, and it seemed she had no choice but to help Rong Qing.

At the same time, the system voice sounded in the prince's mind.

[Ding! System task triggered. Host, Rong Qing carries a deep-seated blood feud. Please extend an olive branch to him, befriend him, and help him seek revenge. In the future, he will surely follow your lead and become your powerful follower.]

This time, the Crown Prince did not refute the Heavenly Dragon System, because he had also heard Ying Yufu and Xiao Dian's conversation and knew that Ying Yufu had agreed to help Rong Qing take revenge.

The Crown Prince thought for a moment and said, "There's no need for me to extend an olive branch. Fu'er has already agreed to help him. If Fu'er helps him, then I naturally share the same sentiment as Fu'er."

The Heavenly Dragon System screamed: 【How can that be the same thing? Host, if Ying Yufu helps, Rong Qing will only recognize Ying Yufu, not you. Do you even understand the difference?】

[The difference? What difference? Fu'er and I are one. If Rong Qing recognizes Fu'er, he will also recognize me!]

Tianlong System: [So you knew it was just a side effect?]

The Tianlong system wants to curse.

[System, why are you so agitated? Besides, why would I want him to follow me? I already have my own subordinates.]

Tianlong System: [Host, I... #￥#￥#&%&&*&……]

The Crown Prince completely ignored the Heavenly Dragon System's profanities and instead said, "Feint to the east, attack to the west, and tell those four to put on their clothes and come to my tent."

"Yes, Your Highness." The feint and the attack immediately went.

In fact, without the Crown Prince's orders, Young Master Jiang and his three companions had already put on their clothes shakily after the wolf pack left.

Soon after, the four of them, though dressed, were led into the prince's tent with disheveled hair.

The Crown Prince sat in the main seat, drinking tea while looking at Young Master Jiang with a gossipy gaze.

He launched into a devastating attack right from the start: "I wonder if Prince Qinjiang knows that Young Master Jiang has such a hobby? Oh, and of course, Miss Jiang too."

Young Master Jiang was completely stunned.

He stared blankly at the Crown Prince. "Young Master Ying, you... you know my identity?"

The Crown Prince chuckled, "Do you think I'm blind? The jade pendant you wear on your waist was a gift from the Emperor."

"Your Highness!" Young Master Jiang knelt down with a thud.

Behind him, the three men, including Young Master Yan Qi, were all startled and looked up at the Crown Prince in disbelief.

This young master Ying is actually the crown prince?

Young Master Jiang, with snot and tears streaming down his face, pleaded, "Your Highness, please, for the sake of our friendship built on our journey together, please don't tell my father, nor my uncle the Emperor!"

The crown prince looked at him with interest. "Then tell me, why shouldn't I tell them?"

Young Master Jiang's face turned deathly pale, and he was drenched in cold sweat. He looked at the Crown Prince, racking his brains, "Your Highness, how can you keep my secret?"

The crown prince smiled with interest and said, "Very well, I will ask you a few questions, and you must answer truthfully."

Upon seeing that there was a chance, Young Master Jiang was overjoyed and said repeatedly, "Your Highness, whatever you want to ask, I will tell you the truth and will not hide anything."

"Good!" The Crown Prince smiled and said, "I ask you, Prince Qinjiang sent a secret letter to the Emperor asking for help, saying that Prince Qinjiang was assassinated and that the Crown Prince and the Princess have gone missing."

When I met you, you were all perfectly fine. What was the meaning of that secret letter?

"A secret letter? I know nothing about secret letters."

"My father only told me and Zhu'er to go to the capital first and tell my uncle, the emperor, about my father's assassination attempt. That's all I know."

The prince looked at him, recalling their first encounter, and asked, "But why are you dressed as beggars?"

Young Master Jiang immediately looked bitter. "Zhu'er and I were very happy to hear that Father Emperor wanted us to go to the capital first."

We heard that there were many handsome men and beautiful women in the capital, so we stole our father's East Sea Pearl and 100,000 taels of silver and set off.

Little did we know, we were constantly being assassinated along the way.

Those who assassinated us not only stole our luminous pearl but also our 100,000 taels of silver, leaving us penniless and forcing us to sell all our valuables.

If we find out who stole our luminous pearl and silver, I will never let them get away with it.

Young Master Jiang gritted his teeth.

A hint of sympathy flashed in the prince's eyes.

This guy was probably tricked by his father. The person who stole their luminous pearl and silver was someone his father sent to do it.

Prince Qinjiang wanted the Crown Prince and the Princess to evoke his father's sympathy, not to see the two enjoying themselves along the way.

Seeing that Young Master Jiang truly knew nothing else, the Crown Prince said, "Very well, I believe what you've said. I'll temporarily agree not to tell your father and father the secret. However, whether I keep your secret for you in the future depends on your performance."

Young Master Jiang looked pale and sickly.

Meanwhile, a procession was slowly making its way towards the imperial city.

A middle-aged man dressed in brocade robes lifted the carriage curtain and looked outside. "Where's the next stop?"

"Your Highness, the next stop is Mianzhou Ridge Inn. We should arrive in about half a day," the guard outside replied.

The middle-aged man gave a faint "hmm," his posture authoritative.

A woman's gentle voice rang out from inside the carriage: "We're finally at the inn. If we don't stop soon, my body won't be able to take it."

Prince Qinjiang did not respond; he remained silent, as if lost in thought.

"What is Your Highness thinking about?" the woman asked with concern.

The middle-aged man snapped out of his reverie and said, "I was thinking, that Princess Anguo, I've heard, has supernatural abilities and is called a goddess."

At the same time, a procession of lions galloped in orderly fashion from a distance.

Upon hearing this, the woman chuckled and said, "It's just a false rumor for the sake of reputation. What kind of goddess could a little girl be?"

Only those foolish common people would believe that.

"Um?"

The pride of lions looked this way.

Is someone speaking ill of the goddess?
