Chapter 1400: Chapter 1387: Qing Yuan, Mu Fan, Reunion_1 Chapter 1400: Chapter 1387: Qing Yuan, Mu Fan, Reunion_1 Not far from the Temple Fair, there was an inn with a window on the third floor left wide open. Mu Fan stood by the window, apparently admiring the splendid night view of Liyang City. However, his eyebrows were tightly furrowed and a hint of confusion flickered in his refined eyes.
Just a moment ago, he had extended his spiritual sense and had scanned the entire Duke of Zhen's Mansion, only to find that every brick and tile, pavilions and towers, felt eerily familiar, as if he had been there before.
Why had he been having this feeling ever since he left the mountain for self-cultivation and practice?
Where could Qing Yuan be if he isn't in the mansion?
“Mu Fan.”
Baoya jumped onto the windowsill and poked her little head out to look at the bustling street below, “The Temple Fair looks lively. Let's go to the Fair.”
“I want to go play too.”
Hunao followed her closely, jumping onto the windowsill with a goofy smile on his face. “There's plenty of delicious food at the Temple Fair. I want to eat mutton skewers.”
“Hunao.”
Mu Fan looked down at Hunao, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind, revealing a glimmer of hope. “You and Qing Yuan share a mental connection, can you find him?”
“Mhmm.”
Hunao's small eyes lit up, nodding vigorously.
Mu Fan's eyes filled with surprise, “Can you take me to him?”
“Mhmm.”
Hunao nodded very seriously, jumped down from the windowsill, and sprinted down the stairs.
“Baoya, let's follow him.”
Mu Fan joyfully bent down to pick up Baoya and followed Hunao out of the inn.

“Master, Mu Fan is here.”
One person, one tiger, and one leopard left the inn, weaving through the crowded streets.
Little Kingfisher trailed them and passed the timely message to its master.
“He's finally here.”
Lin Qingluo smiled faintly, handing the fruit basket to Jin Jing, and transformed into Qing Yuan's appearance.
“Huh, why did Mother change back into a young man?”
“I don't know, but this appearance is terrible, not at all stunning. Mother is much prettier.”
“I think so too. Why does Mother hide her celestial beauty, changing into a plain young man? Isn't it better to be pretty?”
Whispers from Honey Peach echoed in the fruit basket.
Convinced their voices were low, the little sprites didn't realize their mother could hear them clearly.
The disdained young man's handsome face darkened, warning, “When you meet Mu Fan later, don't reveal Mother's identity. Whoever disobeys will be locked in The Orb for a hundred years without being allowed out.”
“Oh, oh, we got it.”
The Honey Peaches obediently closed their mouths, and the fruit basket instantly quieted down.
“Let's split up. Keep an eye on them and don't let them cause trouble.”
Qing Yuan nodded in satisfaction, smiling as he reminded Jin Jing. He then gracefully turned and left.
*
Taking advantage of his small body, Hunao deftly navigated through the crowd and saw his master. He excitedly cried out and leaped into his master's embrace.
“Qing Yuan!”
Mu Fan chased after Hunao, and seeing that it was indeed Qing Yuan, his heart skipped a beat, and an irrepressible joy welled up within him.
“Senior Brother Mu?”
Qing Yuan looked up at Mu Fan while holding Hunao, his eyes also filled with surprise, “When did you arrive in Capital City?”
“This afternoon, just got here.”
Mu Fan glanced around and subconsciously pulled Qing Yuan towards a less crowded area. “It's not convenient to talk here. Let's go across the river and find a quiet place.”
“Sure.”
Qing Yuan smoothly went with the flow, allowing Mu Fan to lead him. The two squeezed out of the bustling crowd and headed towards the Stone Arch Bridge.
“Huh, where's the master?”
Jinghong, Youhuang, and Ruoxie looked around after watching a street performance, their faces filled with bafflement as they noticed the absence of their master.
Jin Jing communicated to them telepathically, “He's across the river. Mu Fan is here.”
