Madam, please listen to my explanation.

Chapter 94 I still prefer the way you were when you were furious.

"The Qiyun Sect has captured the teacher."

I then smashed their hideout!

bang-

The courtyard gate was slammed shut, and the hundred-plus people left under the cover of night.

Across from Yun Ci, a dense crowd remained silent, staring straight ahead.

If it weren't for the obvious rise and fall of their chests, she would have even suspected that these were just statues that looked like people!

This is too bizarre.
An intelligence organization directly under the emperor himself appeared to be even more well-trained than the iron-willed soldiers in the border fortresses.
Stared at by those pairs of eyes, Yun Ci unknowingly broke out in a cold sweat.

With a wave of his arm, he draped the black official robe over his shoulders.

She put on a hat to cover her face.

"Everyone, let's go and rest first!"

"Yes, cameraman!"

Using the black veil around her face to conceal herself, Yun Ci subconsciously swallowed.

Perhaps I've misunderstood.

These people, rather than being well-trained
Rather, they are more like a group of puppets controlled by the same consciousness!
Sigh. This isn't the time to think about these things.

Now that 'Sister Zhuang' has gone out to search, I should also do what I'm supposed to do.
-
That night, the western part of Yanjing was brightly lit.

More than a hundred people dressed in black and with their faces covered by black cloths swaggered through the city.

The leader had his hands behind his back, and the exposed half of his face was as white as jade.

Her long hair was piled high, and the more than one hundred torches behind her made the entire western city flicker with light.

Along the way, the Imperial Guards patrolling for security had blank stares and brushed past the group of people without noticing them.

They rushed into a small alley and stood before them a stone statue with one finger pointing to the sky, its head bowed and its face showing compassion.

"What are you going to do!"

"Get away! Don't come here!"

There are actually more than twenty households living in this small alley.

They sensed something was wrong and, carrying kitchen knives, table legs, and other items from their homes, blocked the way for the group.

Even when faced with such a huge disparity in numbers, they refused to back down in the slightest.

Facing those bloodshot eyes, Zhuang Yuning remained expressionless and waved her slender hand:
"Smash!"

The shadowy figures behind them swarmed forward.

She skillfully controlled her strength, preventing her subordinates from killing these controlled and brainwashed masses.

Even so, the battle was resolved very quickly.

Several men in black lifted the stone statue high and slammed it down onto the ground again and again!

Until it was completely smashed into pieces, so that no human form could be seen anymore.

Without saying a word, Zhuang Yuning turned and led the group away.

After some time of investigation, she had become intimately familiar with the locations of the stone statues that the people had spontaneously erected.

In this western part of the city alone, there are no fewer than a hundred!
Tonight, she is no longer the head of the Mirror Bureau.

As long as the other party doesn't show up, she will smash every single stone statue she sees, leaving none behind!
You vixen, I've heard you're vengeful, haven't you?

Come find me!

Above the sea of ​​clouds.

Gu Niaoniao stood high in the sky, her clothes fluttering.

Zhou Jin was unceremoniously grabbed by the collar and lifted up by one arm.

"Interesting. This rascal has a good way with women. He's got the style I had when I was young."

After saying that, he glanced furtively at his junior sister beside him.

He remained expressionless, his eyes like a stagnant pool.

So boring.
If that doesn't work, try teasing her again!

"I understand, Niao Niao. Are you planning to wait for that Southern Border demoness to appear, and then watch them fight to the death, so that no one will compete with you for that little brat surnamed Xu?"

No, if I remember correctly, Xiao Qi seems to be deeply in love with him too.

Gu Niaoniao's expression finally changed slightly:

Why did you rob Xu Jinhuan?

"what?"

A fierce gale blew incessantly through the clouds.

The tall and imposing Zhou Jin swayed back and forth in the strong wind like a pendant.

Half of his buttocks were still exposed, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"You were so nervous just now, like you wanted to fight me to the death. Doesn't that mean you like him?"

Gu Niaoniao frowned slightly: "Xu Jinhuan is very smart. He can always help me handle some issues that my master didn't explain clearly."

I just don't want him to die.

After saying this, the two people in mid-air were both stunned.

Zhou Jin smiled like a cunning old fox who had succeeded in his scheme.

'I don't want him to die.'

'A person whose emotions, thoughts, and preferences were erased by his master's hand actually doesn't want someone to die.'
If the old man heard these words, he would probably be so angry that he would jump out of the cold jade coffin!
Should we tell him?

I can't wait!

"By the way, Niao Niao, there's something I've always been curious about."

"please say."

"How exactly did Zhao Jingqian succeed in his rebellion?"
He was not of Yan-Zhao blood, and since he harbored ill intentions towards the emperor, he should have been executed on the spot.

Yet you're letting this go unchecked, aren't you disobeying Master's orders? And what kind of attitude is this? You haven't called me "Senior Brother" for over an hour!"

scoff-

A slight tearing sound suddenly came from the back of Zhou Jin's collar, which startled him!
Gu Niaoniao's tone was utterly calm, reverting to her usual indifferent attitude:

"First, all actions shall be guided by the will of the Yan-Zhao Emperor." "Second, if the Yan-Zhao royal family were to engage in conflict, we shall stand idly by and not interfere."

For two hundred years, I have never disobeyed my master's wishes.

And just now outside the city, didn't you personally tell me that I wasn't allowed to call you "Senior Brother"?

"."

Zhou Jin was speechless.

"Niao Niao."

"please say."

"Senior brother still prefers the way you were when you were outside the city, with your hair standing on end in anger."
-
Zhuang Yuning worked tirelessly, destroying more than twenty stone statues of the Celestial Master. The sky was already beginning to lighten with the first light of dawn.

Just as she was about to head to her next destination, a figure blocked her way in the middle of the alley.

'finally come! '

"My dear sister, we meet again."

"It's the middle of the night, and you're hiding like this, smashing other people's things. Isn't that impolite?"

Looking at that alluring and graceful figure, Zhuang Yuning felt a stinging pain between her brows.

It was as if countless voices were shouting hoarsely in my ear.
Kill her
Kill her! ! !

In recent days, at least several hundred people in the capital have been killed by the Qiyun Sect and that old tortoise.
Just a few days ago, she had experienced the profound despair of being devoured alive by the giant tortoise and having her soul stolen by evil magic time and time again.

"Get her!"

Fueled by the fury of countless dead souls, Zhuang Yuning shouted, and more than a hundred men in black rushed forward!

Wu Yao sneered and walked gracefully forward into the black tide.

The bells at her waist jingled wildly, their clear sound reaching everyone's ears.

As if a switch had been flipped, eerie purple runes began to spread rapidly upwards from the palms of the men in black.

They collapsed to the ground, howling in agony, their bodies contorted and trembling with immense pain.

In an instant, less than one-third of the men in black were still standing in the alley!

Zhuang Yuning was horrified to discover that only the whites of the eyes remained in the pupils of the person who had fallen to the ground.

They were drooling, and their vitality was visibly fading away.

Those who were still alive were terrified, but they did not stop and rushed towards the demoness!

Using her photographic memory, Zhuang Yuning quickly understood.

Without exception, all those who fell to the ground were the very people who had just personally smashed the stone statue.
The other party actually left a backup plan on the stone statue!
Without any ability to perceive, she couldn't even catch the movements of the other party and could only watch helplessly as the men in black fell one after another.

Soon, only the two of them remained standing in the alley.

Wu Yao was still barefoot, and her pale gold veil was stained with blood.

"What a pity, all the handsome guys you brought are dead."

Zhuang Yuning looked flustered and began to back away step by step.

"do not come!"

"I only smashed some idols; I have plenty of reasons to negotiate."

"You've killed so many members of the Mingjing Division; even His Majesty can't overcome the public outcry and save your life!"

"Hahaha"

Wu Yao laughed so hard her waist trembled.

The next moment, the scene from that night was repeated.

Flames suddenly burst forth from the black-clad body lying on the ground.

Their bodies were visibly burned to ashes by the purple flames.

It was about to turn to ashes.

Wu Yao flashed and was already beside Zhuang Yuning.

Her palm rested on the back of the other person's neck, and she gently squeezed it:
How could my sister slander someone's innocence out of thin air?

"Where are these black-clad members of the Mingjing Division? You and I haven't seen them at all tonight."

Zhuang Yuning lost consciousness instantly and fell straight down.

Due to the angle, Wu Yao couldn't see the smug smile on the other person's face.

'Sir, I've come to see you.'
-
In the dungeon.

From afar, Xu Jinhuan could smell the pungent odor emanating from Wu Yao.

Soon, clanging sounds began to echo throughout the dungeon, and he hurriedly resumed his previous foolish act.

"Greetings, Celestial Master Wu!"

Wu Yao arrived at the cell where Xu Jinhuan was being held. His gaze was unfocused, fixed on the ground in front of him.

Upon closer inspection with his divine sense, he saw the woman being carried on the other person's shoulder.

'Zhuang Yuning?'

With the wedding imminent and Ruoxi about to return, these two scoundrels shouldn't be targeting the Mingjing Division.

Has he woken up?

"Master, it's always been like this!"

The two guards at the prison gate responded.

Wu Yao looked at the tortoise shell beside her, and the old tortoise slowly poked its head out from inside.

Just as it was about to make a move, a blue phoenix shadow suddenly appeared before it, staring down at it!
A chill ran down the spine of the old tortoise once more, and it quickly shook its massive head before shrinking back into itself.

Wu Yao spat lightly, signaling the guards to open another cell door, and threw the woman on her shoulder into it.

"Keep a close eye on him. Let me know as soon as he wakes up."

"Yes!"

As Wu Yao left, a voice suddenly called out in Xu Jinhuan's ear:
'Sir, are you over there?'

After just a few days apart, they've even learned to communicate using their divine sense.
How did you end up here?

"That's great, I'm so glad you're alright, sir."
