y father, he had a backup plan. To obtain high-grade crystal cores, he secretly raised zombies. This is what we discovered from his files in his secret room when his house was raided."Ying Yi's eyes f...Xiao Huai, burdened with a great mission, has left. Lian Ri is beginning to write the legacy of Fu and Zhen. The main reason is that there is no jade slip here, otherwise, directly recording it with divine sense would be faster.

Three days later, Zidian and Zijang sat cross-legged on the Leiyao Sword, ripples swirling around them. This was their first time traveling by sword, and looking down at the shimmering giant sword beneath them, envy practically materialized in their eyes. This was the power of a Golden Core cultivator.

While the ripples focused on controlling the Lei Yao Sword, they hurried along at top speed.

Three days ago, when she used her ascension tribulation to seize some evil artifacts, Shiju reminded him that the mission progress had advanced to two-thirds, which meant that once she subdued the hilt of the evil artifact taken to the capital for sealing, this world's mission would be completed.

She just felt that things were going too smoothly, so she kept replaying her departure from the capital in her mind.

Five days later, Lian Yi put away her ancestral sword and brought the two of them to just outside the capital city. They didn't rush into the city.

"Both of you, the current situation is unclear. It's best that you don't go see Ziyun right now."

Before the ripples and the two parted, a piece of advice was given.

"Thank you for reminding us, Lu Yao Fairy. We have taken note."

The ripples flickered and vanished before the two of them.

"Brother, what do we do now"

"First, enter the capital city and find a place to stay. Then we'll see the situation and decide what to do!"

We only contacted Senior Brother Ziyun eight days ago. If we appeared before him now, it would inevitably arouse his suspicion. With our cultivation level, we wouldn't be able to reach the capital in such a short time.

Zi Dai also immediately reacted, realizing why Lu Yao had told them to temporarily refrain from seeing Zi Yun. If they had gone, it would have certainly implicated her.

Ripples went straight to Li's Mansion, which was now a notorious haunted house. It couldn't be sold or rented out. In less than half a year, the entire courtyard had been abandoned.

The ripples went directly to the Huayuan, and with a flick of her fingers, she isolated this courtyard as her temporary residence.

That night, she sat cross-legged on the rooftop, gazing towards the direction of the palace. A purple light flashed in her eyes, and then she noticed that the golden dragon energy above the inner court of the palace had weakened by two points. Two-thirds of it had been eroded. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before the dragon energy disappeared completely, and the palace would become a place to strengthen the evil artifact.

"Wow, that's fast!"

Ripples sighed with emotion.

"Messenger, perhaps you could take a stroll through the city tomorrow. You might be able to enter the palace legitimately that very day."

The stone mill suddenly made a noise and announced.

"What does that mean"

"Do you still remember what happened in Huayue City"

Which one specifically

Ripples asked, she had done quite a lot in Huayue City.

During the Plum Blossom Festival, a young master surnamed Wang claimed to be skilled in painting and wanted to paint your portrait. You refused.

"Well, that's true. So what"

Although you refused him, that Young Master Wang couldn't forget about you. He painted a picture of you with a veil covering your face, and this artwork spread from Huayue City. It was eventually seen by an influential person who was selecting brides for the emperor. They were captivated by it and began searching for you. They have been looking for over a month now.

So what you're saying is that things have ultimately returned to the way they were before, and this time it wasn't the Li family who sent me into the palace, but myself

"You can't say that either. At least you have reversed the passive situation of your original self being forced into the palace. Now you are entering the palace to complete a mission, and this method is not easy to alarm others."

The stone mill spoke immediately.

Ripples sighed helplessly, but still accepted the millstone's advice.

"The painting came from Huayue City. How would they find it in the capital Shouldn't they be looking near Huayue City"

They imprinted your likeness, everywhere you go, as long as you show your face, you'll find it.

When you arrived at Lingyun Heavenly City, your maidservants and attendants didn't follow you. And while you were in Ziyun Palace, you didn't appear in the city, so no one saw you. Naturally, you weren't discovered. When you returned to the capital, you flew on your sword, so no one would have seen you either.

Okay, I got it!

The next day, Lian Yi only covered her face with a thin veil and went to the dentist's office alone, expressing her desire to buy the original Li Mansion's courtyard.

All the people in the dental clinic were shrewd. Coupled with Lian'er's attire, they immediately associated her with the woman in the portrait. In order to receive the reward, the mistress of the dental clinic calmed Lian'er down while dispatching someone to send a message.

"Miss, I see you're not short on money. Why buy that haunted house"

"How did it become a haunted house I think the location is good, and people around here say the yard has been empty for half a year."

Liàn Yī held her teacup, feigning ignorance as she asked, "What is it"

"How could they tell you the truth It's because this haunted house has affected the prices of their houses, making them drop. Naturally, they'd try to coax you into buying the house."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The old woman looked like she knew the inside scoop and was waiting for you to ask her. This made Ripples look at Coke with amusement.

But before the old woman could finish explaining the haunted house's origins, a squad of royal guards entered the pawnshop. A guard captain marched towards Lianyi holding a portrait in his hand.

The guard captain glanced at the surprised woman, then back at the painting in her hand. He nodded slightly and bowed to Lian'er.

"Miss, please come with me."

"Sir, what have I done wrong Why are you taking me away"

Ripples got up and asked in a very puzzled tone.

"Your Majesty wants to see you!"

The captain of the guard didn't want to waste time and directly unleashed his ultimate move.

"Huh This... "

Her ripples of beauty widened her eyes, looking utterly bewildered.

"Miss, the sedan chair is waiting outside. Please come with us!"

Ripple feigned composure, then turned to the tooth lady and said:

"My maidservant has gone to buy me some snacks, and we agreed to meet at the dental shop. If she comes, please let her know where I am."

The ripples indirectly explained why she was alone there.

Yes, wife, I've taken note.

The tooth fairy immediately said, then watched Ripple leave.

"Wow! This young lady is really going places."

"Well, Your Majesty is at an age where one knows their destiny. One's grandson is already grown, and I see that girl could be his granddaughter."

"Caution! The Emperor is seeking immortality by choosing a Holy Maiden. If this girl is clever, she might have a chance."

The discussion gradually subsided.

Lianshi rode in a palanquin into the palace, but seeing the emperor wasn't easy. She had to go through many rounds of screening.

The ripples of emotion were so intense that the eunuchs were at a loss. They immediately summoned the imperial physician for a diagnosis. After all, this was the beauty who had captured the Emperor's heart after seeing her portrait, and there could be no room for error.

With a little trickery, Lian Yi fooled both the imperial physician and the maidservants and eunuchs. That night, she followed the trail to the place where the evil energy was most concentrated.

Who comes here Why trespass upon my sacred grounds of seclusion

A powerful voice sounded.

Immediately, a man in a black Taoist robe and with youthful appearance despite his white hair walked out from behind a door.ake over the orphan's property! They actually had the face to say such things.Upon hearing the reports from Li Guan and Mrs. Li, a fleeting look of ferocity flashed across Li Qin's haggard face. She a...
