"Qingyin, where should we escape to?" Xu Chen said.

"For now, let's run out of the Western Twelve Palaces first!" Qingyin replied.

"We can't delay this! Let's go quickly!" Xu Chen hesitated, "Qingyin, do you need to take anything from this room?"

"These are all ordinary things, the important items are already in my storage bracelet!" Qingyin said.

"Then which route should we take to escape?" Xu Chen asked, "It's best to plan ahead!"

"No, let's go through the main gate!" Qingyin said, "I am the master of the Time Palace, I have freedom of passage. Except for the Western Emperor, no one else knows that we will be punished tonight!"

"But won't the Western Emperor monitor the Twelve Palaces?" Xu Chen asked.

"Indeed, as long as the Western Emperor notices any movement here, he will know. But let's just go out openly and make up a reason, saying that we will come back at night!" Qingyin said.

Qingyin and Xu Chen went outside, and the two female demons immediately followed.

"My sister and I need to attend to some private matters, you don't need to follow us," Qingyin said.

"Yes!"

Seeing that they didn't follow, Qingyin and her group walked straight to where the Ice Phoenix Car was parked outside.

"Princess Qingyin!" Suddenly, a sharp voice came from behind.

Qingyin was startled and took a deep breath. Then she turned around and frowned, "Master of the Jade Sword Palace?"

The person who arrived was a woman in her twenties with short emerald green hair, wearing a white battle dress and a short skirt. She carried a jade-colored sword on her back.

"Master of the Time Palace, long time no see," the master of the Jade Sword Palace said, her voice seemingly sour.

"Heh, yeah," Qingyin replied coldly, and turned to leave. She already disliked this woman, and now she had no time to deal with her.

"Master of the Time Palace, weren't you just back? Where are you going again?" the master of the Jade Sword Palace asked.

"Heh, I have my own matters to attend to. By the way, has the master been calling for you?" Qingyin asked.

"Well, what about it?"

The master of the Jade Sword Palace saw Xu Chen beside Qingyin and said, "Ah! I heard you found a sister, she must be her, right?"

"Yes."

"Heh, one mature and sexy, one pure and lovely, you really are a great pair of sisters! I heard the master named her Night Star Fairy the first time they met, it seems he really likes her! With you two beautiful sisters accompanying the master, I'm afraid he has forgotten all about me, the master of the Jade Sword Palace. How can I not be free!" The master of the Jade Sword Palace said with bitterness.

Seeing this, Qingyin realized that this woman was competing with her out of jealousy. What a ridiculous situation! Qingyin was busy trying to escape, where would she have time to argue with her? If you have the ability, why don't you capture the heart of the Western Emperor so that I can be free from your harassment!

"Master of the Jade Sword Palace!" Qingyin spoke in a serious tone, "You don't have to worry! My sister and I serve the master, we're not selling ourselves! Unlike some people, who have held the position of master for thousands of years without actually doing anything, only thinking about how to compete for favor! Although I have no interest in competing for favor, as a woman, I would like to remind this kind of woman that she should maintain her dignity. That way, men will be more interested in her. Don't always be so eager, such women can only make the master disgusted!"

"You... you..." The master of the Jade Sword Palace was so angry that she stomped her foot and her face turned red, unable to say a word!

"Let's go!" Qingyin deliberately said those words to make it seem like they were competing out of jealousy, so that the Western Emperor would naturally let them leave. It seemed reasonable!

So, under the pretense of a quarrel between the two women, Qingyin and Xu Chen boarded the carriage naturally and flew away from the Western Emperor's hall without encountering any obstacles. The Western Emperor didn’t seem to suspect much either.

"Lord Western Emperor!" At this moment, one of the demons following Qingyin sent a message to the Western Emperor, "Princess Qingyin has left the Western Emperor's hall with her sister. Should we send someone to follow?"

"No need!" The Western Emperor, who was in meditation, said, "Let them go! After all, they will come back at night!"

After leaving the Western Emperor's hall, Qingyin and her group accelerated on the Ice Phoenix Car.

"Qingyin, where should we go next?"

"I don't know, let's escape from the Golden Toad Country first!"

"Right! Can we go to the Fire Tree Country? There is a Star Maiden in the Star Moon Cave. I have a feeling that she might be one of our sisters!" Xu Chen said."Alright! Let's go there!" Qingyin said, and she controlled the Ice Phoenix Cart to hurry towards the Fire Tree Country.

At this moment, in the mountains to the northwest of the Fire Tree Country, orange clouds and mist were swirling, and among the black peaks, there was a cave. Outside the cave, many strong monsters and warriors were kneeling all year round.

"What are these strong monsters doing?" a banished celestial soldier who occasionally passed by asked a little monster who was mining nearby.

"Hehe, these warriors and monsters are all proposing to Star Dance!"

"Proposing?"

"Yes! Star Dance said that men not only need to be strong, but also need to endure! Whoever kneels in front of her cave for the longest time, she will marry him!" the little monster said.

"Such a strange thing exists?"

"Yes! It is said that the one who has knelt the longest has already knelt for five hundred years...." the little monster said.

"Hmm... compared to Star Dance, she must be an exceptional beauty! Unfortunately, if I kneel now, it's too late. I'd better go elsewhere and try my luck!" the celestial soldier sighed and continued to climb mountains and cross ridges, hurrying on his way.

At this time, although the stench of male monsters filled the air outside the cave, inside the Star Moon Cave, there was smoke, flowing water, and a lingering fragrance.

Beside a pool in the cave, there was a very beautiful place with a curtain of green gauze. Behind the curtain, there sat a stunning beauty wearing a white Miko outfit, revealing her fragrant shoulders, with long deep blue-purple hair flowing down one side.

That beauty was none other than Star Dance, one of Xu Chen's enchanting sisters.

"Hehehe, how foolish! Originally, they all wanted to come and snatch me! But as a result, I made this arrangement, and these monsters all kneel outside to show their sincerity! Now, if later monsters want to enter the cave, the ones who kneel first will naturally obstruct them. With this accumulating, it has actually become the protection here! Monsters are just monsters, no matter how developed and strong their limbs are, their brains are still doltish! I hate stupid men the most! Unlike Xu Chen, that little brother, he's smart and adorable..." Star Dance thought, her face blushing.

"But, when I came to this ancient demonic realm, cultivating both the celestial and demonic paths, although my talent is extremely high, after five hundred years of cultivation, I have only reached the level of Heavenly Lord or Demon Lord. I still cannot leave the cave recklessly. Also, when I arrived here, I subconsciously acquired this secret technique. Although this technique is extremely amazing, I still can't see its use!"

Star Dance saw a lotus flower blooming beside the pool and said, "As expected, it turned back into a flower after a day! Truly, a remarkable technique of yin and yang interchange. With this technique, regardless of whether it's a person, animal, or plant, as long as it's yin, I can transform it into yang. If it's a flower, it can transform red petals into green leaves, and if it's a person, it can transform women into men. However, I can only use it once a month, and each time it can only last for one day before reverting back... I really can't figure out why I was given such a strange supernatural talent, and what use it has! Moreover, there are side effects..." As she said this, Star Dance's face turned slightly red, and her breathing became deep and long...
