She affectionately took her hand as if meeting an old friend, her eyes filled with surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why have you suddenly come to the Imperial City? I invited you so many times before and you never came, it’s such a surprise!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yaoyao smiled softly, \"Aren’t I here now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your hair...\" Xuanyuan Muqian suddenly noticed that Lu Yaoyao’s once-black hair, tinged with silver, had turned completely silver-white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s due to my cultivation technique, nothing to worry about.\" Lu Yaoyao explained casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flicker passed through Xuanyuan Muqian’s eyes, \"You’re becoming more like my mother consort, but unfortunately...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, her expression turned somber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Consort Chen was imprisoned, she hadn’t been able to see her mother consort for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yaoyao noticed the change in her mood, and just as she was hesitating whether they had come at a bad time, Xuanyuan Muqian once again smiled warmly, shifting her gaze to the two people behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A silver-haired woman, veiled though she was, exuded a serene aura and an invisible majesty that made Xuanyuan Muqian feel like she was facing the Emperor himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside her, a blond youth was nonchalantly picking his nose. Seeing her glance over, he hastily stuffed his finger into his robe, as if something inside took a slurp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he gracefully saluted, \"I am Shen Yunzhou, greetings to the Little Princess!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuanyuan Muqian nodded slightly in acknowledgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yaoyao seized the opportunity to ask, \"Sister Muqian, I have something to ask you. Have you seen my Brother Zhou recently?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuanyuan Muqian smiled knowingly, \"I knew you were here for that. I have seen him, but that was two or three years ago, and we haven’t met since.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where did you last see him?\" Lu Yaoyao’s eyes lit up as she eagerly inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the residence of my Seventh Imperial Brother,\" Xuanyuan Muqian replied, making a gesture of invitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t stand outside talking, come in and we’ll discuss it in detail.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two hours later, under Xuanyuan Muqian’s guidance, they arrived in front of the Seventh Prince’s Yiyun Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Shen Hanyi was nowhere to be found this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mansion door opened, and the Seventh Prince Xuanyuan Yichen came out to welcome them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he saw it was Lu Yaoyao, his expression briefly froze, a peculiar glint in his eye, but he quickly regained his composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he flashed a gentle smile, \"So it’s Miss Lu. What brings you to the Imperial City so suddenly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuanyuan Muqian interjected, \"Brother, I already asked her that. They’re here looking for Brother Zhou. Have you seen him recently?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuanyuan Yichen understood, \"I see. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen Brother Zhou since we last parted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the disappointment on Lu Yaoyao’s face, he enthusiastically stepped aside to invite them in, \"Please, do come in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You were often troubled at the Taiqing Sect before. Now that you’re here in the Imperial City, I should show you some hospitality.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the reception hall!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuanyuan Yichen detailed the circumstances of Zhou Qing’s last visit, including the matter of the Ghost Mastiff, and how he had been secretly maneuvering all along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, right!\" Xuanyuan Yichen suddenly remembered something, retrieving a jade scroll from his storage bag and handing it to Lu Yaoyao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the practice notes of a Level 4 Array Master at the Array Hall, though it’s just the opening section.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He explained, \"At that time, Brother Zhou was in a rush to find Brother Ghost Mastiff and had no time for this. If you find him, kindly pass it on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If he truly has an interest in studying it, he can come to me anytime. I still have a tributor spot available and can bring him into the hall for learning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yaoyao accepted the jade scroll with both hands, her eyes full of gratitude, \"Brother Zhou and Master Ghost Mastiff are truly fortunate to have formed such a close friendship with Your Highness!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Highness not only thinks of them in every way but also goes to such trouble arranging things, this friendship, I will surely convey.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuanyuan Yichen waved his hand with a hearty laugh, \"It’s a trifling matter, not worth mentioning. It’s my fortune to be able to do a little for my dear friends like Brother Zhou and Brother Ghost.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a bit more small talk, Lu Yaoyao rose to take her leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuanyuan Yichen personally saw them off, and as their figures receded into the distance, the smile on his face vanished abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze turned icy as he fixed it on the back of Shen Yunzhou, his eyes coldly glinting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Swish, swish—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two shadows silently appeared behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As black robes billowed, they revealed two elderly faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder on the left had a faint, dark vertical line emerging and disappearing on his forehead, while a vicious knife scar slashed across the face of the one on the right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were Chen Xuanming and Wu Yuanshan, who had been responsible for the retreat after the Seventh Prince left the Nangong Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it him?\" Xuanyuan Yichen’s thin lips moved slightly, his voice condensed into a single line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xuanming squinted his muddy old eyes, \"Judging by that silhouette, it’s likely, especially with that conspicuous blond hair...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No doubt about it!\" Wu Yuanshan’s facial scar twitched violently, a voice squeezed from between his teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That night we lost so many brothers, and after all the toil for that bone box, he was the one to reap the benefits! I’d recognize him even if he turned to dust!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuanyuan Yichen squinted, speaking coldly, \"Shen Yunzhou? Ha, a name is just a label. What matters is... after taking our things, we must retrieve them, with interest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1105,"2026-06-09T06:34:24.727Z",1,"novelbin.me","d6e3b36cac6cb498d46f2bc8258c885d204cfe8e596f510f904574fb1c8fa9b8","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-1165","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-1163",1176,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-cover.jpg"]
