I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Time passed by unnoticed, and back in the human world, at Lin Yi's clone's location, Xiao Yue was also getting anxious.

The fall of Luoyang is something to celebrate.

As agreed beforehand, neither she nor Daliang would accept surrender. After the city fell, they pursued each other to the north and east, each reclaiming the former Han territory.

This matter was destined to take a long time to complete, and Xiao Yue wasn't in a hurry. However, the envoy she had sent to the capital a few days ago had not yet replied, which made Xiao Yue somewhat uneasy.

Gu Tinglan is Lu Yuanhua's disciple. If something happens to her outside, she won't be able to explain it to Lu Yuanhua.

In addition, according to the information sent back by Hua Nianrou's spies, Gu Tinglan has been out of contact since entering the palace and must be being held there.

Xiao Yue was furious when she found out. After thinking it over, she decided to talk to the Ghost-Faced General.

She felt that the masked general was still upright and friendly, and might be able to help her.

But to see Jiang Linglong, he had to bring this wind-element senior along.

However, for some reason, Senior Feng hope suddenly became listless and dazed.

It made people wonder if something was wrong with her.

Xiao Yue didn't want to bother her unless it was absolutely necessary.

Xiao Yue didn't rush into leaving Feng hope behind. The lesson Lin Yi taught her most was to be careful and cautious.

Never go alone when you can bring someone to protect you.

She is not just an individual, but the hope of the entire Chang'an. She carries too much on her shoulders, so of course she must be careful.

The current situation is truly perplexing.

"Senior Feng, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Yi's network connection has been interrupted and he has been disconnected.

It's already difficult for a spirit to take over in the underworld, and then going into the illusion of the Goddess of Mount Tai creates another layer of separation from the outside world.

At this point, the distraction could no longer be sensed.

Without the control of the original body, the clone fell into a deep sleep, as if it had gone offline.

However, after Xiao Yue called out several times, Feng hope's body did respond.

Her eyes brightened, as if she had suddenly woken up.

"Senior Feng, you're finally awake."

Xiao Yue was delighted to notice the change in her.

What's the matter that's so urgent?

The voice seemed slightly different, but Xiao Yue didn't think too much about it. She told Senior Feng what had happened and finally asked her to come with her.

After listening, Feng Xi calmly said, "Don't panic. They wouldn't dare kill the envoy. If they did, it would actually benefit you."

“Senior, Mr. Lu has contributed a great deal to my business. How can I allow his disciple to take risks for my own benefit?”

My master would be furious if he knew I had done this. Please help me, senior.

Although Xiao Yue was somewhat dissatisfied with these words, she did not react. She simply explained why she could not do so and asked for help again.

Feng Xi nodded and said, "Go if you want to. There will be no danger on this trip."

As she spoke, she stood up and placed her hands on Xiao Yue's shoulders.

Xiao Yue and this Senior Feng had always maintained a polite and distant distance, and this was the first time they had been so close, making Xiao Yue feel a little uncomfortable.

Immediately afterwards, "Feng hope" lowered his head and kissed Xiao Yue on the forehead, leaving Xiao Yue completely stunned.

But since everyone was a girl, she didn't think there was much of a problem, just that it seemed a little strange.

"Senior Feng, what's wrong with you...?"

"Giving you a blessing may sometimes have an unexpected effect."

The road ahead is yours to walk alone; do what you believe is right!

"Senior Feng..."

Xiao Yue felt as if she was saying goodbye, but "Feng hope" just closed her eyes and seemed to fall asleep again.

Xiao Yue couldn't help but worry. She knew that something must have happened to Senior Feng, and he probably needed to rest and recuperate now!

Xiao Yue quickly lifted her onto the bed and looked after her for a while, but couldn't figure out what was wrong.

She didn't invite any ordinary doctors either, since Senior Feng was a celestial being, and mortal methods would definitely be useless against her.

Since she didn't give any instructions beforehand, it's best not to do anything reckless now.

The most urgent thing is to see Jiang Linglong.

She hadn't acted rashly before because she was afraid of encountering danger, but now, with Senior Feng's instructions, she was no longer afraid.

However, just to be on the safe side, she still brought a team of guards before going to find Jiang Linglong and question her about the envoy.

Jiang Linglong had no idea what Yan Qingqiu was up to, but she figured she must have her own scheme. She couldn't help Xiao Yue, lest she ruin Yan Qingqiu's plans.

He simply reassured him, "I assure you, no matter what happens, the envoy's life will not be harmed."

That can be guaranteed. Two of the three envoys are Lin Yi's men, and Yan Qingqiu will not kill them.

Although they weren't entirely trustworthy allies, they were at least outwardly considered as having been recruited.

Although Xiao Yue couldn't get a result from the question, she felt much more at ease knowing that what Jiang Linglong said was the same as what Feng hope said.

I don't know what her cousin is up to. He even went so far as to detain envoys. I also heard that Xiao Se fabricated charges against disobedient ministers and then killed them with two quick strokes.

Is he going to become a tyrant?

Xiao Yue didn't understand, but she vaguely felt that Xiao Se was not on the right path.

Having nothing else to do, she bid farewell and returned to camp. This was also their last chance to meet recently, as both armies were about to set off to fight in different directions.

"I hope that when we meet again, we will not be enemies."

Xiao Yue had a vague sense of unease. Before parting, she mounted her horse and said something to Jiang Linglong.

Jiang Linglong smiled slightly and said, "Then you need to believe that as long as you remain true to your original intentions, even if our two armies are facing off, we will not be true enemies."

Xiao Yue: "..."

She could almost see the scene of two armies clashing.

When that time comes, what good will it do if she doesn't want to be enemies with Jiang Linglong?

"I hope so. I'm off."

Xiao Yue rode back to camp, and Jiang Linglong watched her leave, but her thoughts were already on Yan Qingqiu.

What exactly is she doing?

Xiao Se also didn't understand Yan Qingqiu. When Yan Qingqiu imprisoned the envoy, Xiao Se didn't deal with it immediately because she thought it wouldn't matter if he was imprisoned for a few days.

But now that Luoyang has fallen, and the two armies have split into two groups as agreed, there is no need to discuss cooperation anymore. Why not release the envoys?

With just one sentence, Yan Qingqiu left Xiao Se speechless.

"I eliminated one of your rivals in love, and instead of being grateful, you come here to question me?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Se was angry, but there was nothing he could do about Yan Qingqiu.

So, is Gu Tinglan really with Lin Yi...?

Fine, keep it locked up.

Xiao Se returned to his palace somewhat dejectedly and continued his cultivation.

She is now a complete puppet emperor, and most of her orders are carried out with the help of Yan Qingqiu, which is of course something she is willing to do.

Otherwise, Yan Qingqiu would not have been able to usurp the throne so easily.

But in the beginning, Yan Qingqiu's advice did help the country gradually recover. He wanted to use the dragon's energy to wash away the curse on his body, so he could feel it most clearly.

Under Yan Qingqiu's governance, the dragon vein's fortune in Daliang is constantly recovering.

This fox spirit is indeed capable; she can govern the country with her literary skills, command demons with her martial prowess, and is also adept at manipulating people's hearts, making them obey her every word.

This is the most terrifying enemy!

Xiao Se had no choice but to practice his skills on his own, and stop thinking about things he couldn't understand.

Unfortunately, it seems that her curse is not so easy to break.

The method her mother gave was just a suggestion, but whether it was feasible remained to be seen and would have to be verified by Xiao Se.

Unfortunately, Xiao Se now has abundant dragon energy, and the curse has indeed been weakened considerably, which she sensed in the darkness.

The curse bound to the bloodline has weakened, but even that little bit is not enough to eradicate it.

As long as she stops using dragon energy to suppress it, this curse will reignite.

"Ugh……"

Why does Your Highness sigh?

A black cat emerged from the shadows.

Some time ago, Xiao Se's cultivation improved a lot, and his perception became stronger, which allowed him to discover the dark cloud that had been hiding in the shadows.

There was no need for the master and servant to hide their farewell anymore.

But the dark clouds prefer to hide in the darkness to cultivate themselves, and the cat is rarely seen.

Xiao Se sighed inwardly, realizing that the cat's personality had changed ever since it had spent some time with Lin Yi.

She used to love being lazy and sunbathing.

Now, she spends all her time practicing in the dark.

This is clearly a different cat.

"Dark Cloud, what brings you here?"

Today is really strange.

"I've come to say goodbye to Your Highness..."
