Yun Canglang was relieved to see Yun Sheng come back safe and sound. Together with Yuan Shahu, he went to the Yuan Residence, and perhaps it was his deep love confession to Yuan Shahu earlier that greatly improved the impression Yuan Wuqu and Madam Yuan had of this son-in-law, and the family joyfully accepted Yun Canglang, also treating Yun Sheng very kindly. Yuan Shahu did not expect such a twist in events and felt a tinge of melancholy amidst her happiness. Yun Sheng noticed this and sneaked up to Yuan Shahu’s side: "Hello Second Auntie, I’m Yun Sheng, the beloved niece of your husband. Do you have something on your mind, Second Auntie?" Yuan Shahu was embarrassed to be called "Second Auntie" by Yun Sheng and retorted: "Who is your Second Auntie, you sly little girl, be careful or you might not be able to get married in the future." "A good girl never worries about marriage, besides, I already have a fiancé," retorted Yun Sheng, pursing her lips. Yuan Shahu was slightly taken aback, she had inquired just now and learned that Yun Sheng was not yet nine years old. To have a fiancé at such a young age? Yun Sheng didn’t say much, just gazed at Yuan Shahu, "Second Auntie, are you unhappy because of your face?" Yuan Shahu did not expect Yun Sheng to perceive her deep thoughts, she remained silent for a moment and then nodded. In the past, when she witnessed Yun Canglang’s disfigurement, she felt immense guilt. After returning to Emperor Hong City, she was persistently harassed by Xuan Wuji. In desperation, she decided to disfigure her own face. At that time, she thought that there was no chance of rekindling her relationship with Yun Canglang, so she no longer cared about her appearance. But now that she and Yun Canglang had reunited, her face had become her biggest anguish. Women dress for the ones who delight in them. She knew Yun Canglang did not mind her scars, but she did not want others to mock Yun Canglang because of her. "I have a way to heal your face, but we need to make a trip to Xianju Country," Yun Sheng spoke of the Life Water to Yuan Shahu, and Yuan Shahu’s reaction was identical to that of Emperor Hong City Lord. She also disagreed with Yun Sheng going to Xianju Country. Elves are a very special race, they have an aversion to humans, and even more so when Yun Sheng and others are seeking their Holy Water, the Life Water. "It’s too dangerous, it’s not worth the risk for my face," Yuan Shahu knew that in Yun Canglang’s heart, Yun Sheng’s status was probably no less than her own. She was very empathetic and did not want Yun Sheng to take this risk for her. "Second Auntie, not to conceal from you, my search for the Life Water is imperative. You must have heard about Old General Yun’s condition, and Xuan Meimei’s face, they all require the Life Water for treatment. To completely resolve the feud between Emperor Hong City and the Yun Residence, we must find the Life Water," Yun Sheng heard from Xia Wenxu about the miraculous effects of the Life Water, how it could purify one’s body and also had powerful healing properties. She had examined the scars on Yuan Shahu’s face, which were inflicted with a blunt instrument, revealing the ferocity of Yuan Shahu’s self-disfigurement. Since the Life Water had such potent effects, Yun Sheng even thought that it might also cure the strange poison within Yun Canglang’s body. After consideration, the Emperor Hong City Lord decided that, for the sake of Xuan Meimei, they would still send people to Xianju Country in search of the Life Water. To dissolve the grudge between Emperor Hong City and the Yun Residence and to cement the relationship between Yun Canglang and Yuan Shahu, the Life Water was essential. After hearing this, Yuan Shahu realized Yun Sheng’s determination, and she considered, "How about this, I will discuss with Bu Po and have him accompany you to Xianju Country." Upon hearing he would be going with Yun Sheng, Yuan Bupo agreed without hesitation. At the City Lord Mansion, Emperor Hong City Lord also decided to send people to Xianju Country to find the Life Water. Xuan Meimei somehow found out that Yuan Bupo was also going with Yun Sheng, and she adamantly refused to be left behind, insisting on accompanying them. Yun Sheng didn’t really mind; she remembered that Divine Wind was in Xianju, and being a Prince of Xianju Country, he might be able to help her with the Life Water matter. Yun Canglang had also planned to go, but just then, a letter arrived from Great Zhou. The letter stated that the Sky Hunting Corps had received an A-level mission, and Zhou Quan alone was uncertain about handling it, so he wrote to ask Yun Canglang to return immediately. This was the first time the Sky Hunting Corps had been assigned an A-level mission, and as the Commander, Yun Canglang had no choice but to rush back. Knowing her second uncle would feel guilty, Yun Sheng comforted him with kind words. She also asked Zong Ren to accompany Yun Canglang back to Yujing, and handed over the Blood Cloud Beast ring to Yun Canglang as well. Yun Sheng still had the Divine Artifact, Summoning Demon Hand, in her possession. She was confident that she could certainly wrest the Life Water from the Elf. Yun Canglang and Yuan Shahu had not been reunited for long before they had to part again, reluctant to leave each other. That day, Yun Canglang left Emperor Hong City. The Emperor Hong City Lord personally selected a group of elite soldiers from the city, totaling over thirty people. Yun Sheng understood that with so many people accompanying her, the Emperor Hong City Lord still didn’t fully trust her; these people were said to be following her, but it was more as though they were there to oversee her. The group stayed in Emperor Hong City for another two days before embarking on their journey to Xianju Country.

Considering the journey to Xianju was even longer than before, the Emperor Hong City Lord prepared dozens of Chongming Birds. Most people from Emperor Hong City had their own mounts, leaving Yun Sheng as the only one without one. As most Chongming Birds in the city were wary of strangers, Yuan Bupo considerately offered his tamed Chongming Bird to Yun Sheng. "Brother Bu Po, why should you give your mount to her," Xuan Meimei complained with a hint of jealousy. Just as Yuan Bupo was about to get angry, the Red and Blue Ice Fire Phoenix perched on his shoulder flapped its wings and landed affectionately on Yun Sheng, playfully pecking at her hair. The bird’s behavior couldn’t have been more fawning. Yun Sheng had the Linglong Beast Tower hidden on her person, and the Ice and Fire Phoenix liked to be close to her, using that proximity to increase its cultivation more quickly. However, this affectionate gesture seemed to have an unusual meaning in the eyes of Yuan Bupo and Xuan Meimei. A light flashed in Yuan Bupo’s eyes, and he looked at Yun Sheng with even greater fervor. Despite the small size of his Ice and Fire Phoenix and that it hadn’t been hatched long, its wildness was still intense. Even if Yuan Bupo’s parents approached it, the phoenix would at the very least chirp incessantly, and at most simply fly away, ignoring them outright. To see it being so affectionate like it was today was truly a first. From this, it was clear that the Ice and Fire Phoenix was very fond of Yun Sheng. Xuan Meimei snorted and went up to pet the Ice and Fire Phoenix’s feathers, trying to win it over: "Little Red and Blue, come to me, I have some delicious Demon Beast Meat here." As her hand approached, all of the Ice and Fire Phoenix’s feathers stood on end. It resembled a rooster ready to fight, stretching its neck out and fiercely pecking at Xuan Meimei’s hand. This peck frightened Xuan Meimei, making her lose color in her face, and it was too late to retract her hand. Instantly, a deep wound appeared on her hand, with blood continuously oozing out.
