Chapter 110: The Nation’s Beauty, the Dragon Mother

“Little girl, go back!” cackled the two women as they fled and pursued, already hundreds of miles away from Zunlong City. Yet for the White Jade Fan, distance was no obstacle. With a mere flick, the resisting Xuan Nu would return to the palace, falling once again beneath the naked lecher’s grasp!

As the White Jade Fan’s glow intensified, the endangered Xuan Nu suddenly smiled, bowing gracefully toward the space behind her opponent.

A strand of hair at the nape of the White Fan stirred forward. Sensing the danger, the Princess of the Earth Realm instantly flipped her wrist, decisively swinging her fan backward without hesitation.

“Whoosh…” A mighty gale surged forth, scattering clouds and mist, dimming even the moonlight. Yet this earth-shaking wind could not budge the divine, peerless figure of the Queen of Heaven!

The Dragon Mother—the Sea Sovereign, already a Golden Immortal—had finally arrived. The peerless beauty smiled serenely amidst the wind, gently opening her jade-like palm to reveal a radiant golden pill.

“Ahh, the Calming Wind Pill!”

“Little girl, go back! Hehe…” The two women had been chasing and fleeing for hundreds of miles away from the Dragon City, but for the White Jade Fan, distance was no issue. With just a gentle wave, the resistant Mystic Maiden would be returned to the palace, back under the control of the rogue.

As the light of the White Jade Fan gradually increased, the Mystic Maiden, in peril, suddenly laughed and bowed gracefully towards the space behind her opponent.

The hair near the fan’s neck moved forward, and the sensitive heartstrings of the Earth Realm Princess made her wrist flip, decisively waving the fan heavily backward.

“Whoosh…” The fierce wind swept by, dispersing the clouds and mist, even dimming the moonlight, but the tempest that could uproot the heavens couldn’t move the ethereal figure of the peerless beauty.

The Dragon Mother—the ruler of the four seas at the level of a Golden Immortal—finally appeared. The peerless beauty smiled faintly in the wind, her jade palm gently revealing a golden, shimmering immortal pill.

“Ah, the Wind-Calming Pill!”

The fan’s eyes narrowed, and the cunning demoness immediately stepped onto the fan and fled, not daring to leave even half a word.

All things in nature have their counterparts. Just as there is the invincible mystical wind of the White Jade Fan, there is also the Wind-Calming Pill from the Wind-Calming Mountain’s Wind-Calming Sage.

Having endured enough from the fan today, the Mystic Maiden flew in pursuit as soon as the demoness tried to escape. Before the clouds could move, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas called her back.

“Don’t chase, you’re no match for her! Ugh!” Before the words could finish, a muffled groan escaped the Dragon Mother’s lips, and a flush of abnormal redness flashed across her jade-like face.

“Dragon Mother, are you injured?” Due to her master’s relationship, the Mystic Maiden was particularly close to the Dragon Mother. In front of her, she shed the coldness of the Pure Maiden’s Technique, revealing her human side.

“Sigh… The White Jade Fan is indeed formidable!”

After a moment, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas caught her breath. With a sigh, she raised the Wind-Calming Pill to her eyes again, “Although this pill was meticulously crafted by the Wind-Calming Sage, it cannot withstand the White Jade Fan. Under the heavens, only the Wind-Calming Pearl can subdue the White Jade Fan!”

Pausing slightly, the Dragon Mother’s eyes lifted with emotion, glancing towards the direction the fan had fled. Holding the Mystic Maiden’s hand, she flew side by side, speaking solemnly, “Let’s go, I need to find a place to heal. If the demoness realizes the deception and returns, we’ll only end up harming each other. It’s better to seek the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire Pill to save your master.”

The Mystic Maiden nodded quietly. With a movement of the Pure Maiden’s Technique, she finally dispelled the turmoil in her heart. The normal Purple Mansion Saintess accompanied the Dragon Mother, quietly flying back to the Dragon City.

※※※※※※※

For three consecutive nights, the Jade Concubine’s palace was filled with revelry.

The Jade Concubine took turns inviting all the imperial concubines, and without the interference of the Purple Mansion Saintess, the rogue’s plan to corrupt the palace proceeded smoothly. One by one, the beautiful royal consorts submitted under his control.

After three days, without being summoned, the concubines came on their own to pay their respects to the Jade Concubine. The waves of debauchery grew higher and higher. Fortunately, the old emperor, fearing for his life, had fled the palace, or he would have been driven to madness by the mountain of green hats!

On this day, while Qiao San was in his room playing “horseback battles” with several imperial concubines, the Jade Concubine quietly arrived at the National Preceptor’s residence, meeting the Earth Realm Princess who was in deep contemplation.

“Sister Jade Concubine, there’s been a change. The plan must be advanced immediately!”

The Jade Concubine’s heart pounded, suppressing her excitement as she asked solemnly, “Sister, what do you mean…”

Similar temperaments made the Jade Concubine understand the command of the Demon Princess, but different levels of courage made her heart tremble, her eyes widening instantly.

“Without ruthlessness, one cannot be a true man; brute force alone cannot achieve success! To be a great woman, you must be even smarter!”

The White Jade Fan then detailed the command: “Killing the Empress is simple, but there are thousands of women in the world, and they cannot all be killed. The best method is to turn resistance into assistance; use Bold Three to deal with the Empress, and then we can make the useless old emperor disappear at any time!”

“Your sister obeys!”

The Jade Concubine left with excitement, and the Demon Princess was secretly pleased. If the plan was carried out step by step, the Eastern Victory Divine Land would fall into chaos, and the turbid human aura would rise, turning this land into a territory of the Earth Realm.

Closing her eyes slightly, the scheming demoness fell into contemplation again. The cunning Demon Princess couldn’t help but mutter to herself, “Now, only the Dragon Mother and the Mystic Maiden remain—the final obstacles. How to get rid of them? Hmm…”

In the Northern Palace family, Beigong Zheng, who had just returned home, entered his father’s study. Shortly after, a strong objection was heard from the room.

“Father, I don’t want to enter the palace. Find someone else. There are more suitable people to be a spy in the palace than just me!”

With a loud “bang,” the door trembled, and the angry fake young master stormed out, his straightforward personality making his fake eyebrows particularly striking.

“Zheng’er!” The Marquis of Beigong called out, but failed to bring Beigong Zheng back. The Yin-Yang Divine Detective raised his hand, then slowly lowered it. A flash of confusion and a hint of understanding passed through the shrewd detective’s eyes.

Although Zheng’er was quite resistant to the Empress, his reaction shouldn’t have been so resolute. Could it be because… he was supposed to deal with Bold Three?!

“Young master, young master…” A servant from the Beigong family ran up to Beigong Zheng, who had just left the study. “Young master, Chiya is looking for you everywhere. Should I…”

“No need!” Beigong Zheng abruptly interrupted the servant’s words, his frown deepening at the thought of Chiya’s persistent pestering, making him even more irritable.

The stunned servant had just retreated when a tall figure entered Beigong Zheng’s view.

“Junior sister, so you’re here. Have you just seen Uncle?” The enthusiasm of the Young Master Chenyuan was unaffected by Beigong Zheng’s cold demeanor. His eyes shone as he swaggered over, fan in hand, thinking himself suave.

“Young master, please call me ‘junior brother’!”

Beigong Zheng emphasized the word “junior brother” heavily, stepping back to distance himself from Chiya. Before the other could approach further, he coldly stated, “Young master, it’s late. I need to rest!”

“Junior… brother, didn’t Uncle Beigong tell you about our matter?”

Chiya’s pupils contracted, a flash of anger passing through, but he forced a smile and said to Beigong Zheng, “When I came down the mountain, my father wrote a letter to Uncle Beigong. From now on, we are…”

“There’s no such thing!” Beigong Zheng’s fingers tightened at his sides. He was no ordinary young lady. Before Chiya could finish his excited words, the long-legged beauty had already turned away coldly.

“Bang!” The study door was pushed open again. Beigong Zheng stood at the doorway, unmoving, facing the slightly surprised Marquis of Beigong. After a moment of confrontation, he abruptly said, “Father, I’ll enter the palace tomorrow!”

Coming and going like the wind, Beigong Zheng left with a simple statement, leaving the Marquis of Beigong and the chasing Chiya to exchange bitter smiles.

In the natural order of all things, for every yin there is a yang. If there is the unmatched magical wind of the White Jade Fan, then there must also be the Calming Wind Pill of the Calming Wind Immortal of Calming Wind Mountain.

“Little girl, go back! Hehe…” The two women, one fleeing and the other chasing, had already traveled hundreds of miles away from the Zunlong City. However, for the White Jade Fan, distance was no issue at all. With just a gentle wave, the Xuan Nu, unable to resist, would be returned to the palace, back under the control of the naked rogue!

As the light of the White Jade Fan gradually increased, the Xuan Nu, in a perilous situation, suddenly laughed and gracefully bowed towards the space behind her opponent.

The hair near the fan’s handle moved slightly, and the sensitive heartstrings of the Earth Realm Princess caused her wrist to flip, decisively swinging the fan backward with great force.

“Whoosh…” The fierce wind swept through, dispersing the clouds and mist, even dimming the moonlight. However, the overwhelming gale could not move the ethereal figure of the celestial beauty!

The Dragon Mother—the ruler of the Four Seas, already at the level of a Golden Immortal—finally appeared. The peerless beauty smiled faintly in the wind, her jade palm gently opening to reveal a golden, shimmering immortal pill.

“Ah, the Wind-Calming Pill!”

The eyes of the White Jade Fan narrowed, and the cunning demoness immediately stepped onto the fan and fled, not daring to leave even a single word of farewell!

Nature creates all things, with mutual generation and mutual restraint. Just as there is the invincible mystical wind of the White Jade Fan, there is also the Wind-Calming Pill of the Wind-Calming Master from the Wind-Calming Mountain.

Having endured enough of the White Jade Fan’s arrogance today, the Xuan Nu saw the demoness trying to escape and immediately gave chase. Before the clouds could move, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas called out to her.

“Do not chase, you are no match for her! Ugh!” Before the words could finish, a muffled groan escaped from the Dragon Mother’s lips, and a flush of abnormal redness flashed across the jade-like face of the peerless beauty.

“Dragon Mother, are you injured?” Due to her master’s relationship, the Xuan Nu felt particularly close to the Dragon Mother. In front of the Dragon Mother, she set aside the cold aloofness of the Su Nu’s technique, revealing her human side.

“Sigh… the White Jade Fan is indeed formidable!”

After a moment, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas finally caught her breath. With a sigh, she once again held up the Wind-Calming Pill before her eyes. “Although this pill was meticulously crafted by the Wind-Calming Master, it is no match for the White Jade Fan. Under the heavens, only the Wind-Calming Pearl can subdue the White Jade Fan!”

Pausing slightly, the Dragon Mother’s eyes, filled with emotion, looked up and gazed in the direction where the fan had fled. Holding the Xuan Nu’s hand, she flew side by side, speaking solemnly, “Let’s go. I need to find a place to heal. If the demoness realizes she’s been tricked and returns, it will only result in mutual destruction. We must find the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire Pill to save your master!”

The Xuan Nu nodded quietly. With a movement of the Su Nu’s technique, she finally dispelled the turmoil in her heart. The normal Purple Palace Saintess, accompanying the Dragon Mother, quietly flew back to the Zunlong City.

On this day, while Qiao San was in his room playing “horseback battles” with several imperial concubines, the Jade Concubine quietly arrived at the residence of the National Preceptor, meeting the Earth Realm Princess who was in deep contemplation.

“Sister Jade Concubine, things have changed. The plan must be advanced immediately!”

The Jade Concubine’s heart pounded with excitement as she suppressed her emotions and asked solemnly, “Sister, what do you mean…”

Similar temperaments allowed the Jade Concubine to understand the command of the Ten Thousand Demons Princess, but her different level of courage made her heart tremble, her eyes widening instantly.

“To be a great woman, one must be ruthless and cunning! If you want to be a heroine, you must be even smarter!”

The White Jade Fan then issued detailed commands: “Killing the Empress is simple, but there are thousands of women in the world, and they cannot all be killed. The best way is to turn resistance into assistance. Use Bold Three to deal with the Empress, and then we can make the useless old emperor disappear at any time!”

“Your sister obeys!”

The Jade Concubine left with full excitement, and the Ten Thousand Demons Princess was secretly pleased. If the plan were to be implemented step by step, the Eastern Victory Divine Continent would surely fall into chaos, and the turbid human aura would rise, turning this land into a territory of the Earth Realm.

Closing her eyes slightly, the scheming demoness fell into deep thought once again. The cunning Ten Thousand Demons Princess couldn’t help but mutter to herself, “Now, only the Dragon Mother and the Xuan Nu remain—the final obstacles. How to get rid of them? Hmm…”

In the Northern Palace family, the recently returned Northern Palace Zheng entered his father’s study. Shortly after, the room echoed with Northern Palace Zheng’s strong objections.

“Father, I don’t want to enter the palace. Find someone else. There are many suitable candidates to be a spy in the palace, not just me!”

With a loud “bang,” the door trembled, and the angry fake young master stormed out, his straightforward personality making his fake frown particularly prominent.

“Zheng’er!” The Northern Palace Marquis called out, but failed to bring Northern Palace Zheng back. The Yin-Yang Divine Hunter raised his hand, then slowly lowered it. A flash of doubt and a hint of understanding appeared in the shrewd hunter’s eyes.

Although Zheng’er was quite resistant to the Empress, his reaction shouldn’t have been so firm. Could it be because… he was supposed to deal with Bold Three?!

“Young Master, Young Master…” A servant from the Northern Palace family ran up to Northern Palace Zheng, who had just left the study. “Young Master, Young Master Chiya is looking for you everywhere. Should I…”

“No need!” Northern Palace Zheng decisively cut off the servant’s words. His frown couldn’t hide the crease in his brow. The thought of Chiya’s persistent entanglement only added to his irritation.

The stunned servant had just retreated when a tall figure entered Northern Palace Zheng’s view.

“Junior Sister, so you’re here. Have you just seen Uncle?” The enthusiasm of the Dust Fate Young Master was not at all affected by Northern Palace Zheng’s cold demeanor. His eyes shining, he swayed over with a fan, thinking himself suave.

“Young Master, please call me ‘Junior Brother’ Northern Palace!”

Northern Palace Zheng emphasized the word “Junior Brother” heavily, while stepping back to increase the distance between himself and Chiya. Before the other could approach further, he coldly stated, “Young Master, it’s late. Northern Palace needs to rest!”

“Junior… Brother, didn’t Uncle Northern Palace tell you about our matter?”

Chiya’s pupils contracted, a flash of anger passing through. Forcing a smile, he said to Northern Palace Zheng, “When I came down the mountain, my father wrote a letter to Uncle Northern Palace. From now on, we are…”

“There’s no such thing!” Northern Palace Zheng’s fingers tightened at his sides. He was no ordinary young lady. Before Chiya could finish his excited words, the long-legged beauty had already turned away coldly.

“Bang!” The study door was pushed open again with force. Northern Palace Zheng stood at the entrance, unmoving, facing the slightly astonished Northern Palace Marquis. After a moment of confrontation, he suddenly said, “Father, I will enter the palace tomorrow!”

Coming and going like the wind, Northern Palace Zheng left with a simple statement, striding away once more, leaving the Northern Palace Marquis and the pursuing Chiya to exchange bitter smiles.

“Don’t chase her. You’re no match for her! Uh!” Before the sentence could finish, a stifled groan escaped the Dragon Mother’s lips. A sudden flush of unnatural redness swept across her beautiful face.

“Dragon Empress, are you injured?” Because of her master, Xuan Nu was especially close to the Dragon Mother. Before her, she dropped the cold detachment of the Su Nu Technique and revealed her true, human side.

“Sigh… The White Jade Fan is indeed formidable!”

Moments later, the Dragon Mother caught her breath. After a sigh, she once again raised the Calming Wind Pill before her eyes. “Though this pill was painstakingly refined by the Calming Wind Immortal, it still cannot rival the White Jade Fan. Only the Calming Wind Pearl in all the heavens could possibly subdue the White Jade Fan!”

“Little girl, go back! Hehe…” The two women, one fleeing and the other chasing, had already traveled hundreds of miles away from the Dragon City. But for the White Jade Fan, distance was no issue at all. With just a gentle wave, the Mystic Maiden, unable to resist, would return to the palace and fall back under the naked rogue!

As the light of the White Jade Fan gradually increased, the Mystic Maiden, in peril, suddenly laughed and bowed gracefully towards the space behind her opponent.

The strands of hair near the fan’s neck moved forward, and the sensitive heartstrings of the Princess of the Earth Realm made her wrist flip without hesitation, sending a heavy gust backward.

“Whoosh…” The fierce wind swept through, dispersing the clouds and mist, even dimming the moonlight. Yet, the celestial figure of unparalleled beauty remained unmoved by the earth-shaking gale!

The Dragon Mother—the ruler of the Four Seas, already at the level of a Golden Immortal—finally appeared. The peerless beauty smiled faintly in the wind, her jade palm gently opening to reveal a golden, shimmering immortal pill.

“Ah, the Wind-Calming Pill!”

The White Jade Fan’s eyes narrowed, and the cunning demoness immediately stepped onto the fan and fled, not daring to leave even half a word!

All things in nature are interconnected; just as there is the invincible mysterious wind of the White Jade Fan, there is also the Wind-Calming Pill of the Wind-Calming Master from the Wind-Calming Mountain.

Having endured enough of the White Jade Fan’s antics today, the Mystic Maiden saw the demoness trying to escape and immediately gave chase. Before the clouds could move, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas called her back.

“Do not chase, you are no match for her! Ugh!” Before the words could finish, a muffled groan escaped the Dragon Mother’s lips, and a flush of abnormal redness flashed across her jade-like face.

“Dragon Mother, are you injured?” Due to her master’s relationship, the Mystic Maiden felt particularly close to the Dragon Mother. In front of her, she shed the cold aloofness of the Pure Maiden’s Technique, revealing her human side.

“Alas… the White Jade Fan is indeed formidable!”

After a moment, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas caught her breath. With a sigh, she once again held up the Wind-Calming Pill before her eyes, “This pill, though meticulously crafted by the Wind-Calming Master, cannot withstand the White Jade Fan. Under the heavens, only the Wind-Calming Pearl can subdue the White Jade Fan!”

Pausing slightly, the Dragon Mother’s eyes lifted with emotion, gazing in the direction the fan had fled. Holding the Mystic Maiden’s hand, she flew side by side, speaking solemnly, “Let us go. I need to find a place to heal. If the demoness realizes she’s been tricked and returns, it will only result in mutual destruction. We must seek the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire Pill to save your master.”

The Mystic Maiden nodded quietly. With a movement of the Pure Maiden’s Technique, she finally dispelled the turmoil in her heart. The normal Purple Mansion Saintess, accompanying the Dragon Mother, quietly flew back to the Dragon City.

On this day, while Qiao San was in his room playing “horseback battles” with several imperial concubines, the Jade Concubine quietly arrived at the National Preceptor’s residence, meeting the Princess of the Earth Realm, who was in deep contemplation.

“Sister Jade Concubine, things have changed. The plan must be advanced immediately!”

The Jade Concubine’s heart pounded, suppressing her excitement as she asked in a serious tone, “Sister, what do you mean…”

Similar temperaments allowed the Jade Concubine to understand the command of the Demon Princess, but different levels of courage made her heart tremble, her eyes widening slightly.

“To be a great woman, one must be ruthless; brute force alone cannot achieve success! If you want to be a great woman, you must be even smarter!”

The best method is to turn resistance into assistance. Use Bold Three to deal with the Empress, and then we can make the useless old emperor disappear at any time!”

“Your sister obeys!”

“Father, I do not wish to enter the palace. Find someone else. There are many suitable candidates to be a spy in the palace, not just me!”

With a loud “bang,” the door trembled, and the angry fake young master stormed out, his straightforward nature making his fake frown particularly striking.

“Zheng’er!” The Marquis of Northern Palace called out, but failed to summon Northern Palace Zheng back. The Yin-Yang Divine Detective raised his hand, then slowly lowered it. A glimmer of doubt and understanding flashed in the shrewd detective’s eyes.

Although Zheng’er was quite resistant to the Empress, his reaction shouldn’t have been so firm. Could it be because… he was to deal with Bold Three?!

“Young Master, Young Master…” A servant of the Northern Palace family ran up to Northern Palace Zheng, who had just left the study. “Young Master, Young Master Chiya is looking for you everywhere. Should I…”

The stunned servant had just retreated when a tall figure entered Northern Palace Zheng’s view.

“Junior Sister, so you’re here. Have you just met with Uncle?” The enthusiasm of the Young Master of Dust Fate was unaffected by Northern Palace Zheng’s cold demeanor. His eyes shone as he swaggered over, fan in hand, thinking himself suave.

“Young Master, please call Northern Palace ‘Junior Brother’!”

Northern Palace Zheng emphasized the word “Junior Brother” heavily, while stepping back to increase the distance from Chiya. Before the other could approach further, he coldly stated, “Young Master, it’s late. Northern Palace needs to rest!”

Coming and going like the wind, Northern Palace Zheng left with simple words, leaving the Marquis of Northern Palace and the pursuing Chiya to exchange bitter smiles.

Xuan Nu silently nodded. Activating the Su Nu Technique, she finally dispelled her inner turmoil. Restored to her normal self, the Purple Mansion Holy Maiden accompanied the Dragon Mother as they quietly returned to Zunlong City.

※※※※※※※

For three consecutive nights, the Palace of Imperial Concubine Yu resounded with music and revelry.

Imperial Concubine Yu changed her entertainments daily, inviting every noble concubine in the palace in turn. Without the interference of the Purple Mansion Holy Maiden, her plan of licentious debauchery proceeded smoothly. One after another, the beautiful royal beauties surrendered beneath her.

Three days later, without even needing to summon them, the concubines came to her chambers voluntarily, their cries of lust rising higher and higher. Fortunately, the old emperor, fearing for his life, had hidden outside the palace. Otherwise, he surely would have died of rage beneath the mountain of green hats!

On this day, while Qiao San was inside playing horseback games with several imperial consorts, Imperial Concubine Yu secretly arrived at the Grand Diviner’s Mansion and met with the Earth Princess, who was in deep meditation.

“Imperial Concubine, younger sister, circumstances have changed. We must move forward the plan immediately!”

Imperial Concubine Yu’s heart pounded. Suppressing her excitement, she whispered, “Elder sister means…”

With similar minds, Imperial Concubine Yu understood Princess Myriad Demon’s command immediately. But differing in courage, her heart trembled, her eyes widening slightly.

“Without cruelty, one cannot be a true hero. Brute force will not accomplish our goal. If you wish to become a woman of great resolve, you must become even more clever!”

Then, the White Fan gave further instructions: “It’s easy to kill the queen, but there are countless women in the world that cannot all be eliminated. The best approach is to turn resistance into support. Use Da Gan San to control the queen, and then we can make the useless old emperor disappear whenever we wish!”

“Understood, elder sister!”

Imperial Concubine Yu left, filled with excitement. Princess Myriad Demon also secretly felt pleased. If the plan proceeded as intended, the Eastern Victory Divine Land would surely fall into chaos. The impure energies of the mortal world would rise, transforming this land into territory of the Underworld.

“Little girl, go back! Hehe…” The two women, one fleeing and the other chasing, had already traveled hundreds of miles away from the Dragon City. However, for the White Jade Fan, distance was no issue at all. With just a gentle wave, the Xuan Nu, unable to resist, would return to the palace and fall back under the control of the naked rogue.

As the light of the White Jade Fan gradually increased, the Xuan Nu, in a perilous situation, suddenly laughed and gracefully bowed towards the space behind her opponent.

The strands of hair near the fan’s handle moved forward, and the sensitive heartstrings of the Earth Realm Princess caused her wrist to flip, decisively swinging the fan backward with great force.

“Whoosh…” A fierce wind swept through, dispersing the clouds and mist, even dimming the moonlight. Yet, the devastating gale could not move the ethereal figure of the stunning celestial beauty.

The Dragon Mother—the ruler of the Four Seas, already at the level of a Golden Immortal—finally appeared. The peerless beauty, serene in the wind, smiled faintly and gently opened her palm, revealing a golden, shimmering immortal pill.

“Ah, the Wind-Stabilizing Pill!”

The eyes of the White Jade Fan narrowed, and the cunning demoness immediately stepped onto the fan and fled, not daring to leave even a single word behind.

Nature creates all things, with mutual generation and restraint. Just as there is the invincible mystical wind of the White Jade Fan, there is also the Wind-Stabilizing Pill of the Wind-Stabilizing Mountain’s Wind-Stabilizing Sage.

Having endured enough of the White Jade Fan’s arrogance today, the Xuan Nu saw the demoness fleeing and immediately gave chase. Before the clouds could move, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas called out to her.

“Do not chase, you are no match for her! Ugh!” Before the words could finish, a muffled groan escaped from the Dragon Mother’s lips, and a flush of abnormal redness flashed across her jade-like face.

“Dragon Mother, are you injured?” Due to her master’s relationship, the Xuan Nu felt particularly close to the Dragon Mother. In front of the Dragon Mother, she set aside the cold aloofness of the Su Nu’s Art and revealed her human side.

“Sigh… The White Jade Fan is indeed formidable!”

After a moment, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas finally caught her breath. With a sigh, she once again raised the Wind-Stabilizing Pill to her eyes. “Although this pill was meticulously crafted by the Wind-Stabilizing Sage, it cannot withstand the White Jade Fan. Under the heavens, only the Wind-Stabilizing Pearl can subdue the White Jade Fan!”

Her words paused slightly, and the Dragon Mother’s gaze lifted with emotion, looking towards the direction the fan had fled. Holding the Xuan Nu’s hand, she flew side by side and said solemnly, “Let us go. I need to find a place to heal. If the demoness realizes she has been deceived and returns, we will only end up harming each other. It is better to seek the Nine Heavens Mystical Fire Pill to save your master.”

The Xuan Nu nodded quietly. With a movement of the Su Nu’s Art, she finally dispelled the turmoil in her heart. The normally composed Purple Palace Saintess, now restored, flew quietly back to the Dragon City alongside the Dragon Mother.

※※※※※※※

For three consecutive nights, the Jade Concubine’s palace was filled with music and revelry.

The Jade Concubine, in various ways, invited all the imperial concubines in turn. Without the interference of the Purple Palace Saintess, the rogue’s plan to corrupt the palace proceeded smoothly, and one by one, the beautiful royal consorts submitted to him.

After three days, without being summoned, the concubines came on their own to pay their respects to the Jade Concubine. The waves of debauchery grew higher and higher. Fortunately, the old emperor, fearing for his life, had fled the palace, or he would surely have died of rage from the mountain of green hats!

On this day, while Qiao San was in his room playing “horseback battles” with several imperial concubines, the Jade Concubine quietly went to the National Preceptor’s residence and met with the Earth Realm Princess, who was in deep contemplation.

“Sister Jade Concubine, things have changed. The plan must be advanced immediately!”

The Jade Concubine’s heart pounded with excitement as she suppressed her emotions and asked solemnly, “Sister, what do you mean…”

Similar temperaments allowed the Jade Concubine to understand the command of the Ten Thousand Demons Princess, but different levels of courage made her heart tremble, and her eyes widened instantly.

“Without ruthlessness, one cannot be a true man; brute force alone cannot achieve success! If you want to be a great woman, you must be even smarter!”

The White Jade Fan then issued detailed commands: “Killing the Empress is simple, but there are thousands of women in the world, and they cannot all be killed. The best way is to turn resistance into assistance. Use Bold Three to deal with the Empress, and then we can make the useless old emperor disappear at any time!”

“Your sister obeys!”

The Jade Concubine left with great excitement, and the Ten Thousand Demons Princess was secretly pleased. If the plan were to be carried out step by step, the Eastern Victory Divine Continent would surely fall into chaos, and the turbid energy of the mortal world would rise. Then, this land would become a territory of the Earth Realm.

Her eyelids slightly closed, the scheming demoness fell into deep thought once more. The cunning Ten Thousand Demons Princess could not help but mutter to herself, “Now, only the Dragon Mother and the Xuan Nu remain—the final obstacles. How can we get rid of them? Hmm…”

In the Northern Palace family, Northern Palace Zheng, who had just returned home, entered his father’s study. After a while, a strong voice of opposition rang out from the room.

“Father, I do not want to enter the palace. Find someone else. There are others suitable to be the palace spy, not just me!”

With a muffled “bang,” the door trembled, and the angry false young master stormed out, his straightforward personality making his false eyebrows particularly striking.

“Zheng’er!” The Northern Palace Marquis called out, but failed to bring Northern Palace Zheng back. The Yin-Yang Divine Detective’s hand lifted, then slowly lowered. A flash of doubt and a hint of understanding appeared in the shrewd detective’s eyes.

Although Zheng’er was quite resistant to the Empress, his reaction shouldn’t have been so resolute. Could it be because… he had to deal with Bold Three?!

“Young master, young master…” A servant of the Northern Palace family ran up to Northern Palace Zheng, who had just left the study. “Young master, Chi Ya is looking for you everywhere. Should I…”

“No need!” Northern Palace Zheng decisively cut off the servant’s words. His furrowed brows could not hide the tension in his forehead. The thought of Chi Ya’s persistent pursuit only added to his irritation.

The stunned servant had just retreated when a tall figure entered Northern Palace Zheng’s line of sight.

“Junior sister, so you’re here. Have you just met with Uncle?” The enthusiasm of the Dust Fate Young Master was not at all affected by Northern Palace Zheng’s cold demeanor. His eyes shining, he swayed over with a fan, thinking himself suave.

“Young Master, please call me ‘Junior Brother’ Northern Palace!”

Northern Palace Zheng emphasized the words “Junior Brother” heavily, while stepping back to create distance from Chi Ya. Before the other could approach further, he coldly said, “Young Master, it’s late. Northern Palace needs to rest!”

“Junior… brother, didn’t Uncle Northern Palace tell you about our matter?”

Chi Ya’s pupils contracted, a flash of anger passing through. Forcing a smile, he said to Northern Palace Zheng, “When I came down the mountain, my father wrote a letter to Uncle Northern Palace. From now on, we are…”

“There is no such thing!” Northern Palace Zheng’s fingers tightened at his sides. He was no ordinary young lady. Before Chi Ya could finish his excited words, the long-legged beauty had already turned away coldly.

“Bang!” The study door was pushed open again with force. Northern Palace Zheng stood at the entrance, unmoving. After a brief standoff with the slightly surprised Northern Palace Marquis, he suddenly said, “Father, I will enter the palace tomorrow!”

Coming and going like the wind, Northern Palace Zheng left with a simple statement, striding away once more, leaving only the Northern Palace Marquis and the pursuing Chi Ya to exchange bitter smiles.

Back at the Northern Palace family estate, shortly after returning home, Northern Palace Zheng entered his father’s study. Soon after, a strong voice of protest echoed from within.

“Father, I don’t want to enter the palace. Find someone else. There are plenty of suitable candidates for becoming a spy within the palace!”

“Little girl, go back! Hehe…” The two women, one fleeing and the other chasing, had already traveled hundreds of miles away from Zunlong City. But for the White Jade Fan, distance was no issue at all. With just a gentle wave, the Xuan Nü, unable to resist, would be returned to the palace, back under the control of the naked rogue.

As the light of the White Jade Fan gradually intensified, the Xuan Nü, in a perilous situation, suddenly laughed and gracefully bowed towards the space behind her opponent.

The hair near the fan’s handle moved slightly, and the sensitive heartstrings of the Princess of the Earth Realm made her wrist flip without hesitation, delivering a heavy backward wave.

“Whoosh…” The fierce wind swept by, dispersing the clouds and mist, even dimming the moonlight. However, the earth-shattering gale could not move the ethereal figure of the stunning celestial beauty.

The Dragon Mother—the ruler of the Four Seas, already at the level of a Golden Immortal—finally appeared. The peerless beauty smiled faintly in the wind, her jade palm gently opening to reveal a golden, shimmering immortal pill.

“Ah, the Wind-Calming Pill!”

The eyes of the White Jade Fan narrowed, and the cunning demoness immediately stepped onto the fan and fled, not daring to leave even a single word.

In the natural order of things, where all things are interconnected and balanced, the invincible mysterious wind of the White Jade Fan naturally had its counter in the Wind-Calming Pill of the Wind-Calming Mountain’s Wind-Calming Master.

Having endured enough of the White Jade Fan’s antics for the day, the Xuan Nü saw the demoness fleeing and immediately gave chase. Before the clouds could move, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas called out to her.

“Do not chase, you are no match for her! Ugh!” Before the words could fully leave her lips, a muffled groan escaped from the Dragon Mother’s mouth, and a flush of abnormal redness flashed across her jade-like face.

“Dragon Mother, are you injured?” Due to her master’s relationship, the Xuan Nü felt particularly close to the Dragon Mother. In her presence, she set aside the cold aloofness of the Su Nü’s Technique, revealing her human side.

“Sigh… the White Jade Fan is indeed formidable!”

After a moment, the Dragon Mother of the Four Seas finally caught her breath. With a sigh, she once again held up the Wind-Calming Pill before her eyes. “Although this pill was meticulously crafted by the Wind-Calming Master, it is no match for the White Jade Fan. Under the heavens, only the Wind-Calming Pearl can subdue the White Jade Fan!”

Her words trailed off momentarily, and the Dragon Mother’s eyes rose with a touch of nostalgia, gazing in the direction where the fan had vanished. Clasping Xuan Nü’s delicate hand, they soared together as she spoke with gravity, “Let us depart. I must find a place to recover. Should the demoness discover she’s been deceived and return, we would only bring harm upon each other. It is wiser to seek the Nine Heavens Xuan Fire Pill to save your master.”

The Xuan Nü nodded quietly. With a movement of the Su Nü’s Technique, she finally dispelled the turmoil in her heart. The normally composed Purple Palace Saintess returned to her usual self, flying quietly back to Zunlong City alongside the Dragon Mother.

※※※※※※※

For three consecutive nights, the Jade Concubine’s palace was filled with music and revelry.

The Jade Concubine, in various ways, invited all the imperial concubines in turn. Without the interference of the Purple Palace Saintess, the rogue’s plan to corrupt the palace proceeded smoothly, and one by one, the beautiful royal consorts succumbed to his control.

After three days, without being summoned, the concubines came on their own to pay their respects to the Jade Concubine. The waves of debauchery grew higher and higher. Fortunately, the old emperor, fearing for his life, had fled the palace, or he would surely have been driven to his grave by the mountain of green hats!

On this day, while Qiao San was in his room playing “horseback battles” with several imperial concubines, the Jade Concubine quietly made her way to the National Preceptor’s residence, where she met the Princess of the Earth Realm, who was deep in contemplation.

“Sister Jade Concubine, there has been a change in plans. We must act immediately!”

The Jade Concubine’s heart pounded with excitement as she suppressed her emotions and asked in a serious tone, “Sister, what do you mean…”

Similar dispositions allowed the Jade Concubine to understand the command of the Princess of Ten Thousand Demons, but her different level of courage made her heart tremble, and her eyes widened instantly.

“To be a true heroine, you must be even smarter!”

The White Jade Fan then issued detailed commands: “Killing the Empress is simple, but there are countless women in the world, and they cannot all be killed. The best way is to turn resistance into assistance. Use Bold Three to deal with the Empress, and then we can make the useless old emperor disappear at any time!”

“Your sister obeys!”

The Jade Concubine left with a heart full of excitement, and the Princess of Ten Thousand Demons was secretly pleased. If the plan were to be carried out step by step, the Eastern Victory Divine Continent would descend into chaos, and the turbid human energy would rise, turning this land into a territory of the Earth Realm.

With her eyes slightly closed, the scheming demoness fell into deep thought once more. The Princess of Ten Thousand Demons, ever the strategist, couldn’t help but mutter to herself, “Now, only the Dragon Mother and the Xuan Nü remain—the final obstacles. How can we get rid of them? Hmm…”

In the Northern Palace family, Beigong Zheng, who had just returned home, entered his father’s study. Shortly after, the sound of Beigong Zheng’s strong opposition echoed from the room.

“Father, I do not wish to enter the palace. Find someone else. There are plenty of suitable candidates to be a spy in the palace, not just me!”

With a loud “bang,” the door trembled, and the furious fake young master stormed out, his straightforward nature making his fake scowl particularly pronounced.

“Zheng’er!” The Marquis of Beigong called out, but failed to bring Beigong Zheng back. The Yin-Yang Divine Hunter’s hand lifted, then slowly lowered. A glimmer of doubt and a hint of understanding flashed in the shrewd hunter’s eyes.

Although Zheng’er had always been resistant to the Empress, his reaction shouldn’t have been this firm. Could it be because… he was being asked to deal with Bold Three?!

“Young Master, Young Master…” A servant from the Beigong family ran up to Beigong Zheng, who had just left the study. “Young Master, Young Master Chiya is looking for you everywhere. Should I…”

“No need!” Beigong Zheng abruptly cut off the servant’s words. His scowl couldn’t hide the furrow in his brow. The thought of Chiya’s persistent pursuit only added to his irritation.

The stunned servant had just retreated when a tall figure entered Beigong Zheng’s line of sight.

“Junior Sister, so you’re here. Have you just seen Uncle?” The enthusiasm of the Young Master Chenyuan was undeterred by Beigong Zheng’s cold demeanor. His eyes sparkled as he swaggered over, fan in hand, thinking himself quite dashing.

“Young Master, please call me ‘Junior Brother’ Beigong!”

Beigong Zheng emphasized the word “Junior Brother” heavily, while taking a step back to increase the distance between himself and Chiya. Before the other could approach further, he coldly stated, “Young Master, it’s late. Beigong needs to rest!”

“Junior… Brother, didn’t Uncle Beigong tell you about our matter?”

Chiya’s pupils contracted, a flash of anger passing through them. He forced a smile and said to Beigong Zheng, “When I came down the mountain, my father wrote a letter to Uncle Beigong. From now on, we are…”

“There’s no such thing!” Beigong Zheng’s fingers tightened at his sides. He was no ordinary young lady. Before Chiya could finish his excited words, the long-legged beauty had already turned away coldly.

“Bang!” The study door was pushed open again. Beigong Zheng stood at the entrance, unmoving. After a brief standoff with the slightly surprised Marquis of Beigong, he suddenly said, “Father, I will enter the palace tomorrow!”

Coming and going like the wind, Beigong Zheng left with a simple statement, leaving the Marquis of Beigong and the approaching Chiya to exchange bitter smiles.

“Zheng’er!” The Northern Palace Marquis called out, but failed to stop Northern Palace Zheng. With a raised hand, he activated his Shadow Catcher technique but slowly lowered it again. The shrewd investigator’s eyes flickered with both confusion and sudden understanding.

Zheng’er had always been resistant toward the queen, but his reaction shouldn’t have been this extreme. Could it be… because he must confront Da Gan San?

“Master, Master…” A servant from the Northern Palace family ran up to the just-departed Northern Palace Zheng. “Master, Chi Ya is looking for you everywhere. Should I…”

“No need!” Northern Palace Zheng sharply interrupted the servant’s words. Even his feigned scowl couldn’t hide the furrow in his brow. Thinking of Chi Ya’s persistent pursuit only increased his irritation.

As the stunned servant stepped back, a tall figure suddenly entered Northern Palace Zheng’s view.

“Disciple Sister, so here you are! Have you seen Master Uncle just now?” The enthusiastic young master of the Destiny Sect approached, his eyes sparkling as he swaggered over with a folding fan in hand, unaffected by Northern Palace Zheng’s icy demeanor.

“Lesser Master, please call me ‘Disciple Brother!'”

Northern Palace Zheng emphasized the word “brother” particularly, stepping back to increase the distance between them. Before the other could approach further, she coldly declared, “Lesser Master, it’s getting late. Northern Palace needs rest.”

“Disciple Brother… didn’t Master Uncle tell you about our arrangement?”

Chi Ya’s pupils constricted slightly, a flash of anger passing through his eyes. Forcing a smile, he approached Northern Palace Zheng, saying with feigned cheerfulness, “When I came down the mountain, my father wrote a letter to Master Uncle. From now on, we are…”

“There’s no such thing!” Northern Palace Zheng’s fingers clenched tightly at her sides. She was no ordinary noble lady. Before Chi Ya could finish his excited words, the tall beauty had already coldly turned and walked away.

“Bang!” The study door was pushed open once again with force. Northern Palace Zheng stood motionless in the doorway, locked in a brief standoff with the slightly astonished Northern Palace Marquis, before suddenly declaring, “Father, I will enter the palace tomorrow!”

Coming and going in haste like the wind, Northern Palace Zheng left these simple words behind before striding away once more, leaving only the Northern Palace Marquis and the arriving Chi Ya exchanging bitter smiles.
