I, the peerless enchantress, and those decent fairies

Normally, only Qingyun had seen her like this. It would be a very shameful thing for her to walk around in front of others in her snow-white animal form.

But I started to act in the form of an animal. This was a matter concerning the safety of both of us, and I must not be restrained by the shame in my heart.

Her task now is to release those animals. When Qingyun checked what was in the cargo box one by one, she clearly felt that some of the animals could actually rival the Jindan powerhouses, and the worst one had the strength of Ruan Yi now.

If it weren't for the sturdy cages made of black iron and the cloth covering the cages being cast with a sleeping spell, all the animals would have fallen into a deep sleep.

I'm afraid that even those near the cages will be in danger. Ruan Yi's task now is very simple. Ruan Yi hides in the warehouse and uses her claws to tear the cloth that is cast under the sleeping spell.

Let those powerful spirit beasts wake up, and then release some weak ones to attract the attention of the empress's subordinates, so that the empress's government can come and take these animals away directly, instead of going through the procedure of handing over the money and the beasts in a few days.

This can directly cut off the time for the manager to tamper with the matter.

Chapter 47: Promise Yourself

The Empress loves animals.

In the world of immortal cultivation where entertainment facilities are extremely scarce, some people usually entertain themselves by either sticking together with their partners to create life, reading and playing chess, or raising small animals. There are only a few ways to do this.

The empress has always been alone, whether now or before she became the empress. It's not that she has never made friends, but for her long life, making friends is really not a good choice. Reading books and playing chess is not a good choice for the empress. Although she has superior martial arts, her knowledge and political skills are also good. There is no need for her to study books written by mortals.

It is not incomprehensible that the empress likes animals, but it is really heartbreaking that she likes them but cannot touch them.

After the phoenix's aura was mutated by killing, no animal was willing to get close to her.

But the world is so big, what if there is something strange? This is why the empress always buys animals and keeps them in the imperial garden every once in a while, hoping to see if there will be any miracles.

If it happens less frequently, you might not notice it, and people around you won’t think there is anything unusual. This has been going on for decades, and every once in a while, the price of animals in the market will soar dozens of times.

Even the airtight palace of the empress would leak out some rumors, and the empress especially liked rumors about animals.

This also means that the Holy Church, which has always wanted to subvert the world, has gotten the opportunity. Since the empress likes animals, they will give her an animal that is not afraid of her at all.

The ferocious beast Qiongqi looks like a tiger and has wings on its back.

However, its bloodline is not pure, but this is the most suitable creature they can find, enough to rival the immortal cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage. The most important thing is that it is strong and not ugly, but it is extremely evil and murderous.

It is the most suitable choice to assassinate the empress. If the assassination fails, it can also test what the empress's current realm is.

It has been hundreds of years since the empress last took action, and no one knows what her current level is. However, I heard that the empress has been unable to move forward because of the aura on her body, but I don’t know whether it is true or not.

When Ningyan saw that the little saint knew such a plan, she almost laughed out loud.

Because this plan is outrageous, a great holy religion actually has to rely on a ferocious beast to complete the task in the end. But this also shows that the empress and her friends really have no other way to deal with it.

Although many spells were cast to conceal the beast's aura and hide its true strength, anyone who detected it would only get the result of the Golden Core Stage, which would not attract anyone's attention.

Now the moon is bright in the sky and the surrounding streets are extremely quiet. Not to mention people, there is not even a mouse.

Moreover, the public security in the capital can be said to be the best in the world. Anyone who is so bold as to cause trouble here would probably want to die.

But even the person in charge still asked them to guard here all night.

"I don't know what's in the warehouse that we have to guard it all night and wait until the government comes to take over before we can leave."

"I originally thought that since I had come to the capital with the team, I could have a good drink here. You know, the wine here is very delicious and it is simply the best in the world. I really want to live here forever."

"What are you thinking about? Daydreaming about the housing prices and consumption here. Living here for one day is enough to spend all your savings in a year."

The two guards were standing at the door of the warehouse chatting loudly. Ruan Yi, who had now turned into a little fox, was crawling forward. The sewer area of ​​the warehouse was very small, barely enough for Ruan Yi, a small animal not much bigger than a palm, to enter.

Ruan Yi is now holding the broken blade of Qingyun's sword in her mouth. The material of Qingyun's accessories is higher grade than black iron, which is enough to easily make a hole in the black iron and let the spirit beast trapped inside escape.

It was also enough to tear through the extremely strong coverings and then run back through the sewers before the animals woke up.

But the sewer smell is really bad.

When Ruan Yi first entered the warehouse from the sewer, all the snow-white hair on his body became extremely dirty.

[Host, rest assured, the dry cleaning roll can even wash away your body odor, so you don't have to worry about these.]

[Don't talk too much.]

Ruan Yi complained a few words to the system in her head and then returned to her reality. She changed back into human form, picked up the broken blade that she had been holding in her mouth, and started her current task.

The stains that were originally on the hair were now all on the clothes on the body. Ruan Yi had anticipated this, so she only wore the lowest-grade coarse clothes, which she would throw away directly when they got dirty without any regrets.

“Meow~ meow~~”

(You came back to save us. I knew you wouldn't abandon us! Sister Fox.)

When Ruan Yi turned back into human form, she heard the sound of a cat coming from a corner of the warehouse. After the real-time translation in her head, she wanted to complain about the translation of the system in her head. How could the other party say so many words when he had only added twice?

However, after a systematic detection, it seemed that the cat was weaker than himself, and even if it ran away, it would not cause any trouble.

Moreover, Ruan Yi has always been upset about the little black cat biting her tail.

Ruan Yi chose another powerful spirit beast

But the little black cat did not give up and kept meowing like crazy.

"I see that you are all white, and I am all black. According to the law of yin and yang, we are definitely a match made in heaven. Although I have not yet experienced the breeding season, if you rescue me, I promise to tell you when spring comes, as a way to repay you for saving me."

"..."

Ruan Yi probably understood what the kitten meant. She would marry the kitten as long as she saved it, but... "I'm sorry, I don't like animals."

Who would fall in love with an animal? He must be either a fool or a abnormal person.

As a boy in his previous life, Ruan Yi of course likes a sweet and fragrant girl like Qingyun, not a pitch-black cat.

Chapter 48 - Belong to Si Huang

Although the buildings where the empress lived in the palace were beautiful and luxurious, they were all palaces built by previous rulers. As far as the empress was concerned, she hated such gorgeous things very much because they were useless.

The empress's room exudes a cool atmosphere, and the layout of the room is more lifelike than that of other previous rulers, but even so, it looks like it has not been touched for a long time.

The empress's room was fully stocked with the four treasures of the study, including music, chess, calligraphy and painting. However, as she didn't need to handle anything herself, she never touched them on a normal day.

She is the high and mighty empress. Now all she has to do is to be a good empress. Whatever she wants to do, she just needs to tell the maids around her and it will be done quickly.

The most noble person in the world, no matter who he is, he will be called Your Majesty or Empress. If it weren't for the animal collar with a sign made of redwood and three words engraved on it: [Belongs to Si Huang]

Something belonging to Si Huang.

If her name had not been engraved on the wooden plaque, the empress would probably have forgotten her real name.

The collar the empress is holding in her hand is for her pet.

Unfortunately, even now this collar has no real owner. I used to wear it with me thinking there would be opportunities in the future, until now.

But now the empress has never put a collar on any animal.

In the early morning, when the empress was washing and changing clothes with the help of her maid, she heard the voice of her maid Hongtang.

"In the early hours of this morning, an animal that I was planning to take over tomorrow had an accident, but it was dealt with quickly. There were always a lot of animals, but..."

When Si Huang heard what his maid Bai Guo said, he was silent for a while before speaking, "Since it's not lost, why say but?"

"Not a single animal was lost, but we found traces of others."

An ice box suddenly appeared in Baiguo's hand, with a few snow-white hairs inside. The snow-white hairs were as smooth as silk but much softer than silk.

But what can one or two hairs tell us?

After all, no one is as serious and careful as the maid in front of her, so meticulous that she can even notice one or two hairs.

This kind of thing is dispensable. When doing things outside, it is not worth noting that an animal has hair of other creatures on its body. This is why the maid Baiguo was a little hesitant when reporting just now.

Si Huang looked at Bai Guo, the maid who had taken care of him for a hundred years. Bai Guo was very cautious in her work and would not let go of even a speck of dust.

There is a big difference between her character and the brown sugar who is now serving her to dress herself.

Si Huang naturally had no reason to blame such a dedicated and responsible maid.

"If you want to investigate, I will allow you to do so, but you must not let anyone know about the creatures in the warehouse. Do you understand?"

"Yes."

After Baiguo walked out the door, Hongtang, who had been helping Si Huang change clothes, now told him something he had just learned.

"The Sword Sect has been very arrogant in Suzaku City these days. Do we need to warn them? After all, that is one of the Four Holy Beast Cities."

"No, wait a little longer."

……

Bai Guo walked out of the empress's room and took out the hair again to take a look at it. Bai Guo began to take care of the empress since she was a child and had been watching her since she was a child. He was the person who knew the empress best except Hong Tang.

Bai Guo understands the pain and loneliness in the empress's heart, and it has always been his wish to find a suitable pet for her.

A long time ago, she slowly searched through all the animals in the capital, looking for any suitable empress.

Although the capital is very large, Bai Guo has been searching for it for a hundred years. No matter whether it is the spiritual pets raised by some dignitaries living in the capital, or other animals, Bai Guo remembers them all as long as they are animals in the capital.

And this hair seems to have never been seen before, is it a cat or a dog?

But these things have nothing to do with Ruan Yi. Now she is walking happily on the street with Qingyun.

As for the batch of animals shipped over from the black market, they were taken away just as the sun rose. Now the manager of the black market had no way to stop them and had to frame them.

He could only watch them helplessly, and then he was busy dealing with the pressure from the higher-level managers of the black market and the empress's subordinates. Doing business with the empress's government would give him the opportunity to hook up with the big guys, and the black market activities would eventually be smoother in the future.

Moreover, the black market is wondering why the prices of animals have increased. All of this is controlled by the empress, who is the manager of the black market in a small city.

The empress didn't take it seriously at all. Animals were violent and chaotic, but if one was really lost, the entire black market would have to pay the price.

The manager just now not only had to submit a report, but also faced the risk of being demoted.

As for Ruan Yi and the others... people from the black market also came to ask if there were any unexpected events. Qingyun handled these things with ease, and also secretly stepped on the manager.

Something that could have threatened the lives of two people was now resolved so easily. How could I not be happy?

"Qingyun, you are really amazing!"

Ruan Yi put her arm around Qingyun's shoulders in a coquettish manner, and Qingyun also looked at the cute Ruan Yi who was acting coquettishly in front of her. Although both of them were still wearing veils, in this capital city where the Sword Sect could not possibly launch a large-scale search, they could finally find you and act properly.

Being able to go out with Ruan Yi, Qingyun showed a brighter smile, and looked at Ruan Yi who was leaning on her in front of her with gentle eyes.

Qingyun and Ruan Yi have now arrived at the auction site. Although the auction will be held in two days, some unimportant auction items have already come out.

You can see if there is anything you want.

Qingyun will need a lot of props when she practices in the future, such as a good sword.

Ruan Yi has already planned to use the immortal-level technique given to her by the system after Qingyun is able to practice again. Although she has to start from scratch, with the support of the powerful technique, she will definitely be able to return to the peak soon.

In the past, Qingyun spent more than ten years to reach the threshold of the Golden Core Stage. I don’t know if he can reach it faster in the future if he practices again?

Moreover, he has the physique of a top-level furnace cauldron. He doesn't know if Qingyun's cultivation speed can be faster after practicing dual cultivation with her. You know, what they lack most now is strength.

However, dual cultivation is a matter between two people. Having said this, Ruan Yi looked at Qingyun beside her lovingly, and then immediately covered her face with a blush.

What on earth are you thinking about?

Chapter 49: Danger

Qingyun looked at Ruan Yi, who was blushing beside her and didn't know what was going on, and was a little confused. "Don't cover your face with your hands, be careful not to bump into others."

Qingyun's gentle voice has a certain magnetism, which is really heart-warming.

After Qingyun finished speaking, she pulled Ruan Yi's hand down from covering her face, "If you want to be distracted, then let me hold your hand, okay?"

Ruan Yi let out a cry, a little confused, but she still nodded her head.

"Then I will respectfully obey your command," Qingyun directly held Ruan Yi's hand after getting her consent.

Ruan Yi looked quietly at Qingyun in front of her. Compared to when she was in Suzaku City, Qingyun became healthier and more sunny. Both the expression on her face and the tone of her voice became much brighter. She was no longer as gloomy as when she was in Suzaku City, as if a huge rock was pressing down on her.

But this is of course as it should be. After all, when they were in Suzaku City, they had to worry every day about whether the Sword Sect would find out about the hotel where they were staying.

However, in the capital under the control of the empress, there is no need to worry about these things, no matter who you are? Even if you are the head of the three major sects, even if you come here, you have to lie down like a tiger and coil up like a dragon.

Any blockade action needs to be approved by the Empress, so there is no need to worry about encountering a sudden blockade and check, and you can walk on the streets with confidence.
