Just as Ji Yuan was trying to explain himself to the maidens that had gathered, the Lovely Empress had quickly put on her gown and had bolted away, without leaving any explanation for anyone. She had bolted so fast that she was even displaying her full cultivation realm and it was the realm of a peaked great saintess.
Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "You are all at the door, why didn't you stop her?"
Ling Feiyue had asked him, "Did we all come at a wrong timing?"
Ji Yuan could only laugh weakly, "She is probably our clue to finding the hideout of the masterminds of this den. I was so close to getting one of her clothing and to sniff her hideout with my nose."
All the maidens: ???
Ji Yuan explained breathlessly, "She is a fake. The Lovely Empress in the day isn't her. Wait for me here."
With that he had sped off after her. That was after he had quickly left behind a quick explanation to the maidens.
