I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

It's not that Yan Qingqiu can unleash the power of the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl; what's frightening is how she obtained these treasures.

But Jueying didn't say that.

She distrusted neither Lan Yu nor Gu Tinglan.

Immortals cannot trust one another. As Lin Yi said, they are not sure if they have any methods left by the immortals. Therefore, maintaining suspicion towards each other is the right way to survive.

Jueying knew more, and she didn't want Lanyu to know either.

Lan Yu didn't think of the second layer at this moment, and thought that Yan Qingqiu might really be powerful because of the treasure, but she overlooked the logical loophole in Jueying's words.

Does the fact that her treasures are powerful negate the fact that she herself is powerful?

"It seems we're not going to get out today."

Gu Tinglan sighed, and Jueying said irritably, "Just agree to her. Do you really think I would leave evidence after killing someone?"

Jueying felt that this was simply an insult to her abilities.

How could a goddess who specializes in assassination kill a few mortals and still leave behind evidence pointing to her crimes?

"My refusal was also for the princess's sake. People's hearts are unpredictable, and that vixen was clearly not a good person."

We're afraid that she'll use our knife to betray us.

So what if there's no evidence? Can't they at least frame someone?

"You're thinking too badly of people. If she locks us up now and then goes to commit murder herself, can't she just pin the blame on us?"

Lan Yu felt a headache coming on as she listened to the two arguing.

But both sides have valid points, so what should she do?

"How about this? If they really try to smear us, we'll kill Gu Tinglan and then sue the Southern Qi court. That way, our story will be more credible."

Lan Yu offered a suggestion, which Gu Tinglan immediately called a devil.

So, the world where only I am hurt is now over?

The two men Lin Yi sent were not guards; they were clearly here to kill!

The thought that these two people might have been arranged by Lin Yi made Gu Tinglan feel even more aggrieved.

I've never done anything wrong, so why do people still want me dead?

Is this fair?

Gu Tinglan bit her lip, suppressing the sadness in her heart.

Jueying looked at Lanyu speechlessly. "You really are a little genius."

"I suggest you don't offer any suggestions. Let's just wait and see!"

Blue Rain: "..."

Is my suggestion outrageous?

The effect should be quite good, right?

Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to her.

The three remained silent. Yan Qingqiu chuckled and casually tucked the pearls into his sleeve.

These three people are too stupid. Did they really think that she had no other way but to kill indiscriminately?

"Someone, go and bring me the Emperor's jade seal."

When Yan Qingqiu gave the order, Xiao Se happened to pass by and heard the words, his veins throbbing.

It is said that demons fear the dragon energy of humans, and the imperial seal is the core of a nation's destiny. Yet this fox spirit is not afraid at all, treating her imperial seal like a toy.

What are you planning to do now?

Xiao Se pushed the door open and entered. Yan Qingqiu chuckled and said, "There are two documents that need to be stamped with the imperial seal. One is the document to appoint the empress, and the other is the document to launch a campaign against Wei and suppress the rebels. Would you like to take a look?"

Xiao Se had no interest in the document appointing the empress, but she was quite interested in another document. When she took a look, she was impressed by the fox spirit's literary talent.

Needless to say, her writing style and use of allusions are superb; the fox spirit's writing is first-rate, and she is truly talented.

But the key to this kind of writing lies not in its rhetoric, but in its argumentation.

The article first argues that the nation came first, and then the state.

Having demonstrated this point, we can then discuss the relationship between Liang and Qi, arguing that when the emperor is incompetent, the ministers can establish themselves, which is something that has existed since ancient times. Why can the Sima family and the Liu family do it, but the Xiao family cannot?

Moreover, the Xiao family's ruler was personally abdicated by his own brother, making the Southern Liang dynasty's acquisition of power legitimate.

Xiao Yue is now in exile, starting her own business – that's her skill. And since the Liang family now shares a common enemy, the Northern Wei, there's nothing wrong with the two families temporarily joining forces.

Brothers may quarrel within the walls, but they unite against external threats.

Here, we will further elaborate on the rationality and correctness of the alliance.

Next, the true intentions of the officials in the court were revealed: some were acting out of self-interest, while others were colluding with the Northern Wei, and the evidence was irrefutable.

In conclusion, the treacherous officials must die, the Northern Wei Dynasty must be destroyed, and the Han Dynasty must be restored.

After reading the article, Xiao Se was also filled with excitement, but she had a question.

"I have no evidence against any of the people you listed!"

Yan Qingqiu rolled her eyes helplessly. She was just a young girl and didn't have any skills at all, even though she had taught her so many times.

“You are the emperor. If you say they exist, they exist; if they don’t, they exist. Order the arrests first. Arrest half, leave the other half. The rest will know better. After all, this court needs people to do the work.”

Xiao Se: "..."

After all that, you have nothing to show for it, you just keep rambling on.

But upon closer reflection, she found the fox increasingly terrifying.

Whether she attacks openly or covertly, once she makes a move, her prey has absolutely no chance to fight back.

Judging from her words, if the court didn't need someone to maintain order, all those in the opposition alliance would probably have been killed.

This vixen truly has the air of a wicked concubine bringing ruin to a country.

Xiao Se willingly presented the imperial seal and affixed two seals to it.

The emperor's words are the golden rule, and even if someone feels wronged, they have no way to seek redress under her powerful influence.

Because Yan Qingqiu had already aroused the anger of the Han people. Back then, they were driven to flee south in their clothes, which was a shameful thing. Who would not want to restore the glory of their ancestors?

At this time, anyone who dares to disagree is an enemy.

Moreover, there are official witnesses from the emperor confirming that these people are traitors. If they are all punished, no one will dare to plead for them or cry foul.

Anyone who dares to cry foul will be beaten along with the others.

Yan Qingqiu didn't need Gu Tinglan's consent at all; the matter was already settled.

Poor Gu Tinglan and the others are still locked up in the sea fishing.

Jueying, on the other hand, used the Heavenly Fragrance Jade Dew Cream first to remove the curse from her face.

A dark, ointment was smeared all over his face, like he'd just had a face mask, but Jueying could feel something being pulled out of his body, and some long-buried memories were gradually awakening...

The first thing that came to her mind was Yan Qingqiu's appearance.

"is her!"

"what happened?"

Lan Yu looked at Jueying with a puzzled expression, and Jueying quickly shook his head.

"nothing."

Blue Rain: "..."

Don't think I can't see you're hiding something!

The three people on the boat each had their own thoughts.

While the Southern Liang court was in turmoil, the two major camps in the north also launched their final offensive.

Upon receiving Xiao Se's secret letter, Jiang Linglong immediately arranged to meet with Xiao Yue.

She also knew that Xiao Yue was Lin Yi's apprentice, and they were all on her side, so there was no need to be too nervous.

She just hasn't revealed her identity yet.

When discussing the details of the battle, Jiang Linglong took great care of Xiao Yue, after all, she was her apprentice!

Even if Qi and Liang eventually clash, the two armies will never attack each other before Wei is destroyed.

If anyone betrays you, and this gets back to Lin Yi, he'll definitely hate them.

Faced with the combined psychological warfare of the Liang and Qi armies, the Northern Wei dynasty was powerless to reverse its fate.

He Lan Zhang Yue is not without ability.

But when he tried to sow discord, neither Xiao Yue nor Jiang Linglong fell for it.

In direct combat, Xiao Yue was unstoppable, while Jiang Linglong's formation was profound.

Tens of thousands of troops were deployed there, and the wind rose, the fog came, and the firelight appeared and disappeared.

You call this a military formation?

No wonder even the prince of the Tuoba family couldn't withstand it.

Even if he were in charge, he wouldn't be able to handle it!

In just a few days, the two armies, one to the south and one to the west, advanced on Luoyang.

The calamity of national subjugation is imminent.

Seeing that Helan Zhangyue was of no use, the emperor of Northern Wei simply gave up, ignoring state affairs and spending his days drinking and making merry in the palace, much like a final revelry before its demise.

But on this day, a burly monk suddenly appeared in the room.

"The only thing that this wicked dragon, incapable of shouldering great responsibilities, still has some use is its destiny."

The newcomer was none other than Venerable Lingxi. Seeing the Northern Wei emperor in such a wretched state, he couldn't help but sigh.

The course of the world has completely changed. Originally, no matter how incompetent the Northern Wei emperor was, there were still Northern Wei officials to support the country.

The longer the foreign tribes dominated the north, the more severely the dragon veins were eroded, and the weaker the resistance forces among humans became.
