Seeing such a way of controlling subordinates and the mentality of an emperor, Li Qiushui could only secretly sigh in admiration and feel inferior to him.

Chapter 496: Strict military discipline! Friendly rule! Long time no see!
She had also considered whether it was her senior sister or the rebel leader who was suspected to be the descendant of the Xiaoyao Sect who had used the [Life and Death Talisman] to subdue all the rebel commanders, but after thinking about it carefully, she denied this speculation.
The Life and Death Talisman was indeed incredibly mysterious and unpredictable. Once planted, even the most resilient would find it difficult to endure the recurring pain and torture! Without a corresponding solution, even the most profound internal energy would be useless. However, this method was not a panacea. For those with extremely high skills, they might not be able to remove the Life and Death Talisman immediately, but with extremely strong internal energy, it was possible to suppress the pain when the Life and Death Talisman was activated.
As for the commanders of the rebel army, let's not talk about others. Just the commander named Zhou who defeated the imperial army of 100,000 with 5,000 elite soldiers. His various battle records and the combat power he demonstrated show that his martial arts have reached an extreme level. It is hard to say whether the life and death talisman can be effective on such a person. As for the other commanders, they can command tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Judging from the elite level of the rebel army and the fact that all of them are martial arts masters, it can be inferred that they are all extremely powerful.
In this case, the deterrent effect of the Life and Death Talisman on them may not be very great.
Moreover, by using this method, there will be power, but there will be no favor.
There is no problem if it is used in a martial arts sect, but if it is used to govern a country and command the government and military affairs, it is somewhat treacherous and cruel, with an imbalance between kindness and power, and it will not last long.
Furthermore, the various commanders' behavior did not seem to indicate any rebellious intentions or desire to establish their own power...
I don’t know how this leader of the rebel army managed to absolutely control his subordinates even though he was thousands of miles away.
Coming back to the present, Li Qiu Shui became very interested, guessing that the person entering the city might be the leader of the rebel army.
Observing carefully in secret.
But I discovered another strange thing.
Generally speaking, when important people travel, ordinary people are not allowed to approach them.
Clear the road in advance, send the attendants away, add ceremonial guards and bodyguards, and set up all the necessary arrangements. This is the proper procedure.
However, the rebels obviously did not pay too much attention to this. The elite armored soldiers only stood on both sides of the road, and did not deliberately clear out the surrounding civilians. They just retreated to the side of the road.
"The strict discipline of this righteous army and their closeness to the people they govern are truly rare in the world!"
It's even the only one!
Li Qiushui sighed inwardly. Although she usually didn't care about the common people, with many years of experience, she knew that having such an army would greatly increase the people's hearts.
Needless to say, the rebel army was able to sweep over half of the Song Dynasty in just four months! This was not only due to the strong military force, but also the people-friendly policy was a very important factor.
The carriage passed slowly.
The people around were intimidated by the elite armored soldiers and dared not make a noise, but they could not help but watch from afar. Li Qiushui stood on the top of the building and also frowned slightly to watch carefully.
I want to see clearly the person riding in the carriage.
Unfortunately, the carriage separated the inside and the outside, so she was unable to achieve her wish.
All they could do was watch the carriage of this obviously distinguished person pass by and gradually go away.
Li Qiushui pondered for a while, glanced at the elite soldiers who were still standing there, and could only secretly give up the idea of following them to spy.
Although she is an excellent martial arts practitioner, facing so many top masters, if she is accidentally discovered and surrounded, it will inevitably be dangerous.
Li Qiushui was a little annoyed and sighed: "What a pity..."
"What's a pity?"
A clear and gentle voice, yet with awe-inspiring majesty, came, making her feel vaguely familiar.
"Um!?"
Li Qiushui's pupils shrank, her mind was shaken, and her expression changed drastically!
who is it! ?
He came into the room so silently, and with her martial arts skills, she didn't even notice it!
How can this be! ?
Without thinking, Xiao Wuxiang used all his internal strength to protect his body. Li Qiushui turned around and looked, wanting to see the face of the person who was speaking.
It would have been fine if I hadn't seen it, I was just shocked. But when I saw it, my pupils instantly trembled, my scalp went numb, and I was terrified!
“You! You!?”
Wu Xingyun was sitting on the bed in the room, looking at Li Qiushui with a half-smile on her face. Seeing that she looked like she had seen a ghost, she couldn't help but stand up slightly, showing off her extremely graceful and voluptuous figure. She smiled and said, "Junior sister, although we haven't seen each other for a long time, you can't be so stupid as to not recognize me, right?"
Li Qiushui felt dizzy and her mind was in a mess...
Shocked, surprised, puzzled, amazed, jealous...
All kinds of emotions came flooding back.
He was horrified by the strength Wu Xingyun displayed. She had actually been able to enter the room without anyone noticing. If she hadn't made a sound, he might not have even noticed. If she had harbored murderous intent during this time, how could he have survived?!
She was also surprised by this. Even though her senior sister's martial arts skills were better than hers, they couldn't be so advanced that they were beyond common sense, right?
Almost ghostly!
What was puzzling was the appearance of the senior sister in front of him. She had actually grown up!?
Didn't I ruin her foundation so that she would never grow up?!
Why has he grown into this twenties figure today!
And still so...
Li Qiushui gritted her teeth secretly, her eyes reddened. She had known that her senior sister would be very beautiful when she grew up, and what she saw now indeed confirmed her long-held guess. However, her otherworldly temperament, like that of a fairy or goddess, really made her jealous.
Why!
My appearance was originally slightly inferior to hers at 5.3, and my face was disfigured. Originally, she had never grown up, and we mocked each other, but we could still remain calm. But now, I am still disfigured, while she has completely recovered and has grown into such a beautiful figure with fairy-like appearance and charm!
Li Qiushui was jealous in her heart, but at the same time, due to her instinctive love of beauty, she couldn't help but be amazed.
certainly......
All sorts of emotions surged through him at once, but they quickly turned into pure terror.

Chapter 497 Li Qiushui: No wonder Senior Sister is willing to help the leader of the rebel army, this is a harmonious relationship between husband and wife!
Of course Li Qiu Shui was frightened!
Her senior sister must have had some great fortune that improved her foundation and greatly increased her cultivation, which is why she is so powerful. Now that she has come looking for me, how will she torture me?
She wanted to turn around and run away, but her mind told her that with the ability her senior sister had shown, it was impossible for her to escape. Instead of making a hasty and embarrassing move and making a fool of herself, it would be better for her to maintain her composure and be decent.
Although the outcome won't change anything, at least it won't be so embarrassing.
Seeing Li Qiushui gritting her teeth, her face gloomy, but silent, Wu Xingyun sneered, "Junior sister, have you lost your courage? You don't even dare to speak?"
Li Qiushui took a deep breath. After all, her mood was not bad. Her expression quickly returned to calm. She smiled slightly and said, "Senior sister, you are joking. I was just stunned for a moment. I never thought I would meet you here."
As she spoke, she sighed softly, "Sister, you are really something. You didn't even tell me you were coming. You scared me so much that I'm a little uneasy now."
Looking at Wu Xingyun, staring at her face intently, Li Qiushui felt a surge of anxiety, her eyes wandering downwards, her breathing stagnating. A surge of nameless anger rose, her teeth itching with hatred, yet her face was filled with shock and sighs. "Senior Sister, look at you now. Have you recovered completely? Oh~ You are so beautiful! I, your junior sister, am far from being able to compare to you. What a pity~"
Wu Xingyun found it amusing and said with a half-smile, "What a pity!"
Li Qiushui sighed, "It's a pity, Senior Sister, although your foundation has been restored and your body has grown, and you've become so beautiful, like a goddess from heaven! But now your youth is fading, and I'm afraid you don't have many years left to live. What good does it matter if you're beautiful?"
Wu Xingyun raised his brows slightly. "Junior sister, you know you can't escape, so you use these words to stab me? Even before you die, you're still trying to show off your eloquence? Should I say you're not afraid of death? Or should I say you're quite courageous? But you think saying that will make me angry? You're really underestimating me, your senior sister."
She might have been angry before, after all, what he said was like rubbing salt into the wound, a precise finishing blow, but now she has a good husband, and it involves the method of immortality, so living for another few hundred years is not a problem.
It's ridiculous to talk about the passing of time!
Seeing that her sarcasm had no effect, Li Qiushui no longer bothered to pretend and snorted coldly, "Kill me or chop me up, it's all up to you! Junior Sister, I accept defeat. But before I die, I have a lot of questions. Senior Sister, for the sake of our fellow disciples, could you please answer a few of them?"
Wu Xingyun smiled and said, "Tell me about it. I'm in a good mood, so I might even show some mercy and tell you, so that Junior Sister won't end up being a fool on her way to the underworld."
Li Qiushui was secretly annoyed at her lack of leniency, having mocked her before even trying to kill her. But there was no point in retaliating now, so she simply asked everything that puzzled her: "Sister, how did you recover your foundation? If my guess is correct, your Eight Desolations and Six Directions, I Am the Only One, is nearing its thirty-year end. With your attitude, does that mean you don't even need to disperse it? And what about your current martial arts level... what realm is it? Have you surpassed Master?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the elite soldiers standing outside and continued, "Was the rebellion in Jiangnan planned by Senior Sister? What was the purpose? The leader of the rebel army is called Fang Han, right? Could he be the successor of the Xiaoyao Sect? What is your relationship with him? Is he your disciple..."
Previously, she thought that given the situation, the leader of the rebel army should not be a so-called puppet. However, after witnessing Wu Xingyun's mysterious cultivation, she became somewhat hesitant. Perhaps her previous guess was not wrong?
But no matter what, to be able to sit in the position of the leader of the rebel army, his relationship with his senior sister must be complicated. Such an honorable position that will soon lead to the throne of the emperor, cannot be sat on even by a puppet unless they have a close relationship.
So Li Qiushui had some guesses. Could that person... be the direct disciple of her senior sister?
Wu Xingyun was about to complain about her last words, but after hearing the last part, he froze in shock, his expression turning strange. "Junior sister, you really know how to tell a joke! That guy is your senior sister's husband. How can he be called her disciple?"
But don't say...
In the first life, I did teach him the essentials of martial arts. Although we were not master and disciple in name, we were master and disciple in reality. Later on, the relationship was reversed and he taught me.
They are each other's mentor and apprentice?
Pooh!
Wu Xingyun shook her head slightly. What master and disciple? She and her husband should be husband and wife. She was almost led astray by her junior sister.
Li Qiushui didn't have the mind to pay attention to Wu Xingyun at this time. When she heard what Wu Xingyun said, her mind was confused.
Senior sister's...
Husband! ?
Did she hear it wrong?
Can an old maid like Senior Sister find a husband?!
Um! ?
Li Qiushui's eyes instantly cleared up, and she looked Wu Xingyun up and down. She had been captivated by the changes in her appearance and martial arts skills, and had not noticed it for a while. But now, after a closer look, she could see that there was indeed a big difference in her senior sister's eyebrows and behavior.
980This has never happened before.
Wu Xingyun frowned, "Junior sister, the way you look at me really makes me uncomfortable. You don't want your eyes anymore, so I'll dig them out for you, okay?"
Li Qiushui regained her composure slightly and suddenly chuckled softly. She didn't care about Wu Xingyun's threat. She thought, "I'm going to die anyway, so I might as well dig." He spoke as if I could be spared just by begging. So, she paid no attention to what he said and said to herself, "Senior Sister, Junior Sister, I never thought that someone like you could find your ideal husband. Could you please open your eyes and take a look at this world-renowned sage, leader of the righteous army, and future ruler of the Central Plains and emperor? What kind of wise and powerful person is he to have won your favor and affection?"
Besides being surprised, many of my previous doubts were also clarified.
No wonder Senior Sister suddenly went south a few years ago, and all the elite members of the Nine Heavens and Nine Divisions of Lingjiu Palace were transferred away. She must have gone to find her so-called husband.
No wonder my senior sister is willing to help the leader of the rebel army. This is a harmonious relationship between husband and wife.

Chapter 498: Revolving Lantern! Imperial Palace Renovation!
Wu Xingyun glanced at her. In one lifetime, two lifetimes, and three lifetimes, every time, her junior sister couldn't control her strong curiosity and tried her best to explore her affairs.
but......
On the other hand, don’t I always have to come and scare her in person?
I can only say that it's the same for each other.
Wu Xingyun snorted coldly at Li Qiushui's words, "Junior sister, there are so many things you can't imagine. It might not be so bad to be blind. We're going to die anyway, so why bother delving into so much?"
Li Qiushui giggled, her delicate body trembling slightly, as if she had discovered something interesting. "Senior Sister~Junior Sister, I simply wanted to see your husband's heroic figure and grace, to admire him and satisfy my curiosity. Why are you so stingy? You won't even agree to such a small request. Are you afraid, Senior Sister? Are you worried that Junior Sister will steal your ideal husband? Is he so good? Why do you value him so much?"
It was full of teasing and sarcasm, but she was indeed very curious.
How fresh this is!
What kind of person could win the heart of her senior sister?
Looking at this scene, she could vaguely feel that the man's status in her senior sister's heart was such that she could call him her husband. If she didn't really love him so much and was truly devoted to him, would her senior sister call him that?
Wu Xingyun's expression was indifferent, his eyes lingering for a moment on Li Qiushui's veil. He said with a half-smile, "With your ugly face and ghostly dignity? I'm afraid of you? Haha~ I really don't know where this inexplicable self-confidence of yours comes from, Junior Sister."
If her junior sister had a perfect appearance, she would be truly commendable, but now...
Not to mention.
"you!......"
Li Qiu Shui's face was slightly stiff, and her whole body was trembling. She felt a fire burning in her chest, and she was so irritated that she was about to explode!
