Fairy, shut up! I'm really not blondie.

How could someone capable of leading the Dao Alliance be so indecisive?

Moreover, this was in front of several senior figures in the Dao Alliance who held positions similar to elders.

If there really is some bias.

It is estimated that after this negotiation, the Dao Alliance will undergo a major change.

after all.

The Dao Alliance is, in essence, a collaborative effort between various sects and Dao leaders, not an absolute hierarchy.

It's much more loosely organized than the imperial court.

and.

Judging from the tone of the other Dao Alliance elders.

He had no dissatisfaction whatsoever with this Holy Maiden of Taiqing.

Then there's only one possibility: they have absolute confidence in the saintess.

The current stalemate is simply because the Holy Maiden hasn't made her move yet.

Su Qing nodded her chin and narrowed her eyes.

"Yes."

He knew all too well what kind of person this Holy Maiden of Taiqing was.

and so.

The boy stood up.

He handed the other earphone to the goddess as well.

"what are you doing?"

Gu Beihan was a little dumbfounded, then seemed to realize something and asked.

"You want to enter the palace now?"

"It's impossible to make it in time."

"And in the palace..."

Before the words had even finished,

The boy vanished right before his eyes!

Gu Beihan: "..."

After realizing what this meant, Her Highness the Goddess couldn't help but show an expression of disbelief.

No.

Who told the Empress to allow foreign officials to set up teleportation arrays within the palace?

Didn't they ever consider the possibility that this foreign official might harbor ill intentions, or that he might be manipulated by someone to cause irreparable damage to himself through this formation?

Gu Beihan remained silent for a moment.

They realized they had underestimated Su Qing's control over the entire dynasty.

They've even managed to set up teleportation arrays inside the palace.

hiss.

Looking back now.

When he first plotted to seize the dynasty, his plans were riddled with flaws.

If only I had known earlier that the two of them were so close.

She wouldn't have gone to the Empress in the first place.

But then I thought about it.

If we don't look for a breakthrough from the Empress, where should we start?

Was that the thief himself?

Thinking back on the journey, I recall the astonishing strength and wisdom that the young man had displayed.

The proud and aloof goddess felt a rare sense of powerlessness.

This road is even more congested.

So to say.

Did I really have no chance from the very beginning?

A moment of melancholy followed.

Gu Beihan discovered that he was not as desperate as he had imagined.

Instead, I felt a sense of relief.

prior to.

She kept wondering if her failure was because she hadn't done a good enough job or had missed some details.

I keep thinking: if we had planned for a longer period of time and paid more attention to Su Qing, the outcome might have been different.

At least.

Chapter 461 Even if you call me "sister," I won't show any mercy.

We won't end up in a situation where we have no way to fight back against this petty thief.

but now.

I've completely given up on that idea.

Gu Beihan finally understood.

It wasn't that I was thinking too little, but rather too much—because that boy wasn't even human!

Not an opponent.

After readily admitting it.

It actually made things much easier.

However, just because she wasn't a match before or now doesn't mean she won't have a chance in the future.

A fierce fighting spirit shone in the goddess's clear, cold eyes.

Well now.

Let's see how that boy plans to deal with the situation.

suddenly.

Sound came from the "earphones".

The situation was clearly reaching a stalemate, and the Empress's side even held a firm advantage due to the dynasty's status and prestige.

Princess Dumb breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

Finally.

All those previous preparations were worthwhile.

In fact, cooperation between the Imperial Dynasty and the Dao Alliance was almost inevitable.

Both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages.

If they cooperate, they can complement each other perfectly.

The crux of the problem lies here.

What the Dao Alliance wants is a status equivalent to that of an imperial dynasty.

Once a cooperation is reached.

The lands outside the Imperial Dynasty's territory will now belong to the Dao Alliance, and the Imperial Dynasty cannot interfere.

Because of the millennia-old heritage of the Taiqing Holy Land, it had long foreseen the existence of the great calamity of heaven and earth.

and so.

In dealing with the great calamity, the Dao Alliance will take the lead, with the Imperial Dynasty playing a supporting role, primarily providing resources and territory.

There are two points in total.

The latter is somewhat acceptable.

After all, the reasons given by the Dao Alliance were quite valid.

In matters of the great calamity of heaven and earth, those who, like the Dao Alliance, dedicate themselves daily to studying transcendence and making prophecies, indeed have more authority to speak on the issue.

However, the former is a bit more subtle.

The previous dynasties were confined to a corner of the country, occupying their own small territory, and gradually their power waned.

But ever since Su Qing suddenly appeared and helped the Empress ascend to the throne.

What followed was a series of events.

The dynasty, in its decline, was showing signs of renewed prosperity.

Recently, Yi Lingqi exposed private matters in a strange and dirty way (June/Yi).

The Empress is working to bring those areas around her territory that have been loosely controlled back under her jurisdiction.

Their influence is gradually expanding outwards.

The Dao Alliance's demands clearly conflict with the future plans of the imperial dynasty.

Moreover, it is also a Dao Alliance.

Why would such a large territory be needed?

Beyond the imperial court, the world remains vast.

The worst-case scenario.

If they were to be completely absorbed by the Dao Alliance during this calamity...

in the future.

Forming a new dynasty would not be difficult.

Only this.

Ji Lanxin will never back down!

Fortunately.

The Dao Alliance is newly established, and its current strength is insufficient to contend with the entire dynasty.

and so.

Ji Lanxin was still able to maintain the initiative.

The elders of the Dao Alliance had not expected that this seemingly young Empress would be so difficult to deal with, and each of them showed a hint of difficulty.

No wonder she's the Holy Maiden's younger sister, isn't she?

It's truly remarkable.

but……

at this time.

suddenly.

Ji Lanxue's gentle and calm voice rang in my ears.

"Your Majesty is right."

The saint spoke.

The elders all breathed a sigh of relief.
