This Is Exactly How Cultivation Works

Chapter 975: My Lord, you came at the right time

Views:

After Lu Bei withdrew from the morning court, he went straight back to the imperial study and took a nap while it was still early.

After waking up, he casually ordered thirty-six dishes of imperial cuisine, ate and drank as much as he could, and then continued reading.

The palace has a large collection of books, including Taoist classics, but there is not a single book that can give people immortality or make them immortal.

The Shang Dynasty established the Si Tian Jian, which was responsible for astronomy, calendar, weather, and calendar calculation, and also taught students. Du Yuanxian, the Grand Tutor of the Si Tian Jian, was a veteran minister of three dynasties. He was loyal and devoted to the Shang Dynasty.

Needless to say, such a loyal old minister would not have a good ending.

As it turned out, it was true. He discovered that there were evil spirits lurking in the harem and suspected that Daji was a monster. He tried his best to persuade her, but King Zhou ordered him to be beheaded.

Lu Bei didn't know how, so he summoned Du Yuanxun to the imperial study to meet the emperor.

"This old minister greets your majesty."

Du Yuanxian came with orders and saw that the king had stayed up all night, his eyes were red after catching up on sleep, he ate and drank a lot with oil dripping from his mouth, he looked weak inside but strong outside, and he became very worried.

Honest advice is unpleasant to the ear. Like all loyal ministers, Du Yuanxun's words were not pleasant. He was obsessed with beauty when he opened his mouth, and was lustful when he closed his mouth. Lu Bei's head was buzzing when he heard it.

Looking at the face of old farmer Qin again, I wish I could let him retire and return to his hometown to farm.

Forget it, let Qin Laonong be Qin Laonong, he is better than Lin Buyan and Zhan Lexian.

"Master Du, please stop thinking. I know that you have great magical powers, so I specially invited you here to ask for some Qi training techniques. My request is not high. Eight or ten is not too much, and seven or nine is not too little. You are a loyal minister who has served three dynasties and is patriotic. You will definitely not refuse me, right?"

As he spoke, he pulled out the sword hanging in front of the desk and began to dance with it.

He was a boxer and had never practiced swordsmanship properly. He struck with full force, and the whistling sound of his sword scared Du Yuanxun so much that he knelt down and begged for mercy.

He was not pleading for himself, but for King Zhou. The swordsman had accidentally cut his neck. How could an old man like him bear such a shock

Seeing that Du Yuanxian sincerely admitted his mistake, Lu Bei forgave him for the time being, put away his sword and said: "Tell me, what magical skills and secret manuals do you have in your hand? I'll say this in advance, don't bring out the little tricks like the Eight or Nine Mysterious Skills to embarrass yourself."

Du Yuanxuan smiled bitterly. He had never heard of the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

After the conversation between the emperor and his minister, Lu Bei was greatly disappointed. Although Du Yuanxun was a cultivator, his Taoism was shallow. Not to mention immortality, he was not even third-rate and was essentially an ordinary person.

Growing vegetables during the day and watching the stars at night is not as mysterious as the outside world says.

Wow, you are acting like yourself!

Lu Bei had no choice but to drive the man away and put his hope on Wen Zhong, who would return to the capital within three months.

Kong Xuan is very powerful. His five-colored divine light shines on everything. Neither Randeng nor Lu Ya can subdue him. Only a person with great supernatural powers at the level of a leader can suppress him.

But Kong Xuan was a peacock, a member of the demon clan. Humans and demons had different methods of cultivation, so even if he was summoned to Chaoge, no one could get the truth out of him.

Nowadays, monsters are very wary of their connections, and if they ask a few questions out of the blue, Kong Xuan might just resign and run away.

Lu Bei never had the habit of attending the morning court. This was the case in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, and it was no exception in Chaoge. He spent every day in his study, enjoying himself, leaving the civil and military officials at a loss.

The previous king spent his days in idleness and ignored state affairs. The current king spends his days reading books and still ignores state affairs.

You say he is stupid, but at least he has given up sex and has not been to Shouxian Palace to show his affection to Daji for several days. You say he is ambitious, but come on, as an emperor, your main job is to govern the world. How can you read books all day long

Fei Zhong and You Hun sent their daughters to the palace, and Lu Bei happily summoned the two beauties. At first glance, they were beautiful, but not the Bai Jin and Zhan Hong Qu he had been thinking about day and night.

He waved his hand, sent back the unopened goods, and drafted an edict, rewarding Fei Zhong and You Hun with twenty lashes of the cane each.

There was no other meaning, and it was not directed at their faces. It was simply that Lu Bei disliked treacherous ministers. He wanted to be a wise ruler and would not tolerate insects in his eyes.

The two unfortunate guys were beaten so hard that they cried loudly. With new wounds adding to their old ones, they couldn't understand why they had fallen out of favor.

The treacherous ministers have a hard time, and the same is true for the wise ministers. Seeing that the king is obsessed with books all day long, they feel anxious.

Stop reading, please, take some time out once in a while to attend the morning court!

Just one, and we all kneel down to you!

The ministers asked King Zhou to stay away from beautiful women, meaning that he should not dote on Daji too much. Lu Bei was very straightforward and gave up all lust. He even stopped seeing the virtuous Queen Jiang.

He was afraid of making mistakes.

Queen Jiang forced him into a corner, but he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and gave in.

There is no such thing as a chance of that happening. Lu Bei knows himself too well and is the best at finding excuses to shirk responsibility. As long as Queen Jiang seduces him a little, he will 100% lie down and enjoy the ride.

After the incident, they still said that it was Queen Jiang who started it first.

Since that’s the case, it’s better not to meet.

Lu Bei didn't see Queen Jiang, so Queen Jiang had to take the initiative to find him. Although she didn't know what new problem the king had, husband and wife are one, and as the mother of a country, she had the responsibility to persuade her husband to be a good ruler.

"Your Majesty, I will host a banquet in the Central Palace. Concubine Huang and Concubine Yang will also attend..."

Queen Jiang attended the meeting in a very proper manner. She was a good queen and knew that her husband intended to distance himself from her, so she asked her palace maids to deliver food boxes to her several times. Since that night, the two had not seen each other for half a month.

Queen Jiang complained to herself, distressed that her husband treated her like an outsider, but she didn't know that Lu Bei was even worse off than her. How could he abstain from sex? He was just a lowly person.

Every time Lu Bei saw Queen Jiang, he had an impulse that he could not control. The man with the feather fan and the bad guy whispered in his ear, saying that this is your wife, not a terrible beast, and cannot be confused with that person, they just look alike.

Be more confident. There are so many people who look like you in this world. It’s okay.

Lu Bei couldn't bear to hear this, and with all his willpower he blocked Queen Jiang's charm. He buried his head in a book, waved his hand and said, "I know, I will go tonight to pretend. I mean, I will go to the banquet. Queen, go back and rest first. You don't need to wait here."

Queen Jiang felt a lump in her throat and almost burst into tears. Lu Bei couldn't bear it and had to keep her.

It’s okay to pinch his shoulders, but don’t do the same as last time and sneak attack him and give him a head shock.

Queen Jiang burst into laughter, with a bit of sadness, and moved behind Lu Bei, pressing down with her white hands to relieve his fatigue.

"Your Majesty, I have also invited Lady Su from Shouxian Palace to tonight's banquet."

"Why invite her? Send her away. If she goes, I won't go."

"… "

Queen Jiang was choked up for a moment, lamenting the great changes in the harem. Some time ago, the Shouxian Palace was under the scorching sun every day and it was a dangerous place everywhere, but now it has been frosty for years and it has become like a cold palace.

So, what did Daji do wrong

"Your Majesty, although Lady Su is arrogant because of her favor, she is the daughter of Jizhou Marquis Su Hu after all. She is virtuous and kind, and is a good woman. Everyone makes mistakes. If she makes mistakes, it is because she loves Your Majesty so much. I hope Your Majesty will not neglect her."

"???"

A string of question marks crossed Lu Bei's mind, and he turned to look at Queen Jiang. So this was the mistress of the harem, and she really had the demeanor of a mother of the country.

However, you are just courting death by doing this: a chicken paying New Year's greeting to a weasel!

"Why, the Queen won't scold me for being greedy and lusty today?"

"I dare not."

It doesn’t matter whether you dare or not, don’t change, just continue to scold, I like to hear it.

"I have my own ideas about Lady Su. The Queen doesn't need to worry about this matter. She will be at the banquet tonight, but I won't. That's it."

Lu Bei made the final decision. He disliked Daji, and it had nothing to do with the fact that she had a foxy face.

He has a very good relationship with his eldest brother. This face will not affect his close relationship with his friends in any occasion. The key is not the face, but the vixen nature of Daji.

Daji had no love for King Zhou. Everything was her master's task. For details, please refer to Bo Yikao. Literary young men were the favorites of the vixen.

If it weren't for Daji's big brother look, Lu Bei really couldn't bring himself to do it, and would have asked the executioner to drag the evildoer out of the Meridian Gate and behead him.

Therefore, as both were faces that could not be touched, Lu Bei avoided Queen Jiang for fear of an accidental conflict, while he would rather ignore Daji than be bothered by her.

Seeing her husband's firm attitude, Queen Jiang was both happy and worried. She was happy because she hated Daji and was happy to see her fall out of favor. But she was worried because if Daji, who was so beautiful, fell out of favor, how would the other people in the harem cope with the situation

As the mistress of King Zhou's harem, Queen Jiang was good at managing her subordinates and had a very good relationship with Concubine Huang of the West Palace and Concubine Yang of the Xinqing Palace. They treated each other like sisters and never had any quarrels.

Simply put, the eldest sister has meat to eat, and the sisters’ soup is indispensable.

Now that she saw that Daji had fallen out of favor, she was happy but also felt sympathy for her. If possible, she hoped that her husband would regain his favor for Daji and not spoil her as much as before.

Lu Bei had no idea what Queen Jiang was thinking. Even if he knew, he would only laugh at her for seeking her own death. He flipped through a book and occasionally chatted with his wife. When it was getting dark, he put down the book, prepared to take a bath and go to the banquet.

In the bath, Lu Bei was leisurely and contented, looking down on the decadent upper class society, and allowed the two palace maids to wash his body.

But after a moment, a fragrant breeze blew, and the two palace maids left, and Queen Jiang took over to brush away the dust for him.

The Queen's...

What kind of clothes can I wear when taking a bath? All I can say is that I know a lot about circles, trigonometric functions, and the Pythagorean theorem. I am an excellent student in both arts and sciences.

Lu Bei: |_′一)

Lu Bei quickly hid behind the pillar, looking straight ahead, feeling a little panicked and a little embarrassed.

Queen Jiang saw this and became even more puzzled. She confirmed through eye contact that her husband was being ambivalent towards her and did have feelings for her, but whenever she took the initiative, her husband would stay away from her.

Is this a like or a dislike

"Your Majesty..."

"go out!"

"Your Highness..."

"go out!!"

"… "

Queen Jiang did not leave, but sat by the bathtub and cried silently. Lu Bei could not bear such a scene and would rather suffer the injustice himself than let her cry.

He gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and quickly slid down into the bathtub. With a fearless spirit of sacrifice, he turned his back to Queen Jiang and said, "You can rub my back, but don't go too far. I've been indulging in alcohol and sex for some time, and my body is getting weaker and weaker. Now is the time to take care of my body, so you must not break the rules."

There was no response. Lu Bei only heard the rustling of clothes, then the water ripples and a fragrant breeze blowing from behind.

It's gonna be bad!

Lu Bei's eyes widened. This place was dangerous, and if he didn't leave, he would suffer heavy losses.

Without waiting for Queen Jiang to approach, he stood up and strode out of the bath.

He failed to leave as he was pulled and hooked by the little hand, and immediately fell into the warm arms. The blood in his heart gathered together, and he had to close his eyes and let her do whatever she wanted.

After a while, Queen Jiang blushed and obediently changed Lu Bei's clothes.

The latter had a solemn and unyielding look on his face. He glanced at the queen several times and subconsciously glanced at her small, rosy mouth. His eyes were too revealing, making the queen even more embarrassed.

After pulling up his pants, Lu Bei felt quite upset. He couldn't understand why he was so possessed. If he had just endured it a little longer, he would have gotten through it.

This is what the villain looks like!

The couple arrived at the Central Palace, which was Queen Jiang's bedroom. As the host, she held a banquet and, in addition to inviting her two sisters, she also called her two sons.

Queen Jiang is a frugal mother of a country, and she is worthy of the title of virtuous and kind. Although her bedroom is gorgeous, it is far less extravagant than Shouxian Palace. Just like her, she is dignified, generous, elegant and decent.

When Lu Bei met King Zhou's two sons, the eldest son Yin Jiao and the second son Yin Hong, he slowly felt relieved.

It’s not Huang Yu and Feng Yi’s face, it’s just too good.

Just as he was feeling happy and thanking his luck, Concubine Huang and Concubine Yang came forward together to pay their respects. The former had the face of Little Yellow Fish and the latter had the face of Gu Mi. Seeing the three of them addressing each other as sisters, Lu Bei's eyelids twitched and he didn't know how to complain.

Hey, who are you calling sister

Also, this is Chaoge City, not the Demon King City, and the number of demons in his harem is ridiculously high.

Lu Bei raised his hands to cover his face and sat on the main seat without saying a word. The scene was too beautiful. He had never dared to think about it before, but now that it had come true, he felt deeply sinful.

It's unbearable to watch. It's really unbearable to watch.

Concubine Huang and Concubine Yang were secretly worried when they saw His Majesty's cold attitude.

The former is the daughter of the Huang family, a descendant of a military family. She has an elder brother and a father. As for the latter... According to the current monopoly of the upper class society, she should be from the family of Yang Ren, a senior doctor.

Queen Jiang looked at her two sisters and said, "After trying, the king is indeed sick, but he has not really given up women. He just has some quirks that are difficult to talk about."

"Your Majesty, don't just eat the food, drink some wine!"

“I’ve quit.”

"Sister, why don't you pick up your chopsticks? These dishes are your favorites, right?"

"She's full."

Queen Jiang's face suddenly turned red, and she cursed Daji inwardly for being shameless, for causing her husband to learn some unorthodox methods, which was so shameful.

Seeing her like this, Concubine Huang and Concubine Yang suddenly realized what was going on. They chuckled in front of her and chased after her to ask what kind of meat her sister had eaten just now.

The table immediately became lively.

After the banquet, Lu Bei, in keeping with the temperament of a tyrant, spent a lot of money to reward the two filial sons. Faced with the queen's hesitation to speak, he simply chose to ignore her, put his left arm around Concubine Huang and his right arm around Concubine Yang, and went to the West Palace to stay overnight.

Thank God, I finally found my own people.

It would be great if you two could show up earlier, even an hour earlier!

It is so irresponsible to talk with your pants pulled up.

This was a tough time for Queen Jiang. She watched her husband leave and sighed. She had to stay alone in her empty bed again tonight.

Half a month passed in a flash. Lu Bei stayed in the West Palace and Xinqing Palace every night. Whenever he passed by the Central Palace, he would escape quickly. He was very doting on Concubine Huang and Concubine Yang, especially Concubine Huang, and he obeyed her in almost everything.

If this trend continues, there will be no place for Daji in the future. Concubine Huang will be the culprit for King Zhou's neglect of state affairs.

On this day, Lu Bei was reading in the imperial study when he heard laughter and chatter outside the window, as if there were some girls playing and fighting.

He frowned, guessing that it was Daji coming to seduce him, and thought to himself that it was boring. He hoped that she could look in the mirror and see what she looked like before seducing him.

Lu Bei had no intention of paying any attention to them, but the sweet sounds of the girls were so alluring and charming that he felt itchy in his heart as if he was being scratched by a cat.

The vixen used magic!

Lu Bei suppressed his restlessness and looked out the window, where he saw three beauties chasing and playing in the garden.

Fox Three, Fox Two, and Zhu Xiushi.

The Wu Zhou content in Chaoge City is also quite high!

Lu Bei rolled his eyes. Among these three faces, two were his brothers and one was his mother. What was they doing here

My interest was totally gone, and all my enthusiasm was gone.

The nine-tailed fox brought chaos to the court. It all started when King Zhou went to Nuwa Palace to offer incense, he went crazy for some reason and wrote a blasphemous poem.

But if I can get the charming girl to move, I can bring Changle back to serve the king.

Not to mention, your writing is pretty good.

Nuwa was no pushover. She had status and position, so how could she tolerate such humiliation? She was blocked by the luck of the Shang Dynasty when she tried to kill King Zhou alone. In a rage, she summoned the three monsters from Xuanyuan Tomb.

Nine-tailed fox spirit, nine-headed pheasant spirit, and jade pipa spirit.

It seems that Fox Er turned into a chicken spirit, and Zhu Xiushi got what he wanted and turned into a piece of jade here.

Lu Bei thought to himself that it was outrageous. Among the three fairies, there were two fox people, and the negative buffs were fully stacked. It would be a miracle for him, King Zhou, to favor Daji.

Looking at it from a positive perspective, Fox Three only offered his mother, Fox Two, and did not bring his wife, Mu Jiling, which was already very decent.

"Bah, vile!"

Lu Bei closed the window and called the soldiers outside the door to drive away the three women who were playing and fighting.

It's broad daylight, and you're talking so loudly. Don't you want to catch up on your sleep, my king

If I don’t make up for the sleep, how am I going to deal with Concubine Huang tonight!

He is a descendant of a military family, has martial arts skills and great endurance.

Just like that, Daji was driven away with a look of devastation on her face. The three fairies looked at each other in amazement, especially Daji, who looked at her two beautiful sisters, unable to understand why.

Why is Your Majesty indifferent to beauty

"Sister, King Zhou is blind and doesn't recognize the beauty of us sisters. What should we do?"

"The Queen's order cannot be disobeyed, and it must be carried out even if it is impossible!"

Daji gritted her teeth and thought about sneaking into the imperial study tonight and using all her skills to expose the lustful and tyrannical emperor.

She just didn't believe it!

He had no choice but to believe it. Lu Bei liked Little Yellow Fish so much that he went to the West Palace before dark and was obsessed with Concubine Huang's beauty. This made the latter happy but also quite guilty.

It is great to win the emperor's favor, but Queen Jiang treats her very well. It is unreasonable for a younger sister to be well fed and well-dressed while the older sister is left alone in an empty room.

How about getting the king drunk tomorrow and then calling my sister over

This plan works!

"Your Majesty, there is trouble in the battle in the North Sea. General Kong was defeated before the battle and is now missing."

"What the hell?"

On this day, Lu Bei received bad news from the front line. Kong Xuan, the general of Sanshan Pass, who he had placed high hopes on, was captured alive by a wild Taoist who passed by before the battle, and no one knew where he had been taken to.

Lu Bei's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself that there was indeed something wrong with the chaos in Beihai.

He took the battle report and read it quickly.

Kong Xuan, the general of Sanshan Pass, received an imperial order, assembled a team of soldiers and rushed to the north to meet the Grand Tutor Wen Zhong.

He came with an imperial edict, and Wen Zhong appointed him as the vanguard officer. He won ten battles in a row, and taking the heads of generals from an army of millions was as easy as taking something out of a bag. In just three days, he captured alive thirty-six of the seventy-two princes.

Wen Zhong was overjoyed and praised Kong Xuan as a loyal minister to the country. Kong Xuan was humble and said that the king had the ability to judge people.

Just as the rebellion in Beihai was about to be settled, a Taoist priest with mixed hair jumped out from nowhere, pointed at Kong Xuan and said, "It's fate."

After a fight, Kong Xuan was knocked out of the body of a peacock demon, his five-colored divine light magical power was defeated, and he was ridden away by the Taoist priest.

Before leaving, the Taoist recited a poem.

"No wonder Wen Zhong has been gone for more than ten years. Even the invincible Kong Xuan has fallen..."

Lu Bei put down the battle report expressionlessly, closed his eyes and pondered in silence. Wen Zhong would not be able to come back in a short time. If he insisted, the Grand Tutor might be stuck in a maze and spend his whole life on the road riding on horseback.

As for the wild path that took Kong Xuan away, he could guess with his toes who the other person was. He kept talking about fate all the time, so who else could it be but Zhunti.

"What a great Western religion! We will never let you off!"

Lu Bei took a deep breath. He was just an ordinary man and could only swallow his anger in front of a powerful master of the leader level. However, things have changed over time and one should not bully a young man who is poor. This vengeance must be taken sooner or later.

Kong Xuan was already defeated, so it was useless to send other generals to the North Sea. Lu Bei once again tasted the bitter taste of fate.

In the past, he believed in fate and refused to accept it, and now is no exception. After analyzing for a moment, he found that he can only rely on himself.

But first, he must meet with the master of Jiejiao, and if possible, after establishing connections, have a face-to-face meeting with the master of Tongtian.

"If I still had the strength I had before, even if there was only one of the three sacred birds, I would have avenged this revenge right here and now."

Lu Bei was just getting angry when another palace guard came to report that a fairy had descended from the sky outside the palace, calling himself Yun Zhongzi, and wanted to see him about something important.

Yun Zhongzi, a Qigong practitioner from Yuzhu Cave in Zhongnan Mountain, became a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun of the Chan sect, and took Lei Zhenzi as his disciple. He avoided the disaster of the Nine-bend Yellow River Formation and was a rare immortal with good fortune and luck in the Chan sect.

This guy is quite weird. When all the orthodox celestials were stationed in Xiqi, he quietly came to Chaoge City, gave King Zhou a wooden sword, and while slapping Nuwa in the face, he also slapped his own master.

You may say that he knows nothing, but he was smarter than anyone else when he accepted Lei Zhenzi as his disciple, and Wen Zhong also died because of his refining of the Heavenly Divine Fire Pillar.

It's inconsistent and I don't know what he's thinking.

"Xuan!"

After a cup of tea, Lu Bei met this great master of the Chan sect, who looked quite good and was a true immortal.

"I am Yun Zhongzi, a man from outside the world, a free-spirited wanderer. Nice to meet your Majesty." Yun Zhongzi shook the whisk in his hand as a greeting.

Lu Bei was not annoyed. He ordered his attendants to seat him. After chatting for a while, Yun Zhongzi got down to business and explained the reason for coming to Chaoge City.

In a nutshell, I have nothing to do.

While he was collecting herbs in the mountains, he saw the evil spirit rising from Chaoge City. He calculated with his fingers and found that a demon had sneaked into the harem, misled the king, and murdered loyal officials. He was afraid that the country would be overthrown, so he came here specifically to subdue the demon.

Misleading the king, yes; killing loyal and good people, but that hasn’t happened yet.

Lu Bei arrived early and neglected Daji early on. When the latter fell out of favor, punishments such as burning with red-hot irons and scorpion pots had not yet been invented, and there were no wonders like the Zhaixing Tower and the Lutai.

In the eyes of Queen Jiang and all the ministers, Daji is now just a little girl who is spoiled and has no idea of her own worth.

When Lu Bei saw Yun Zhongzi coming to present the wooden sword, his eyes rolled and a plan came to his mind.

He stood up in a hurry and walked quickly to Yun Zhongzi: "Master, you came at the right time. To be honest, there are indeed monsters in the harem, and there are more than one, there are three!"

"Ah, this..."

This sudden incident left Yun Zhongzi at a loss.

That’s not right, the rhythm is wrong!

He was just looking for fun, how did he become the fun himself

"Let the Immortal know that although I am a mortal and cannot tell who is a demon, as a ruler, I have seen all kinds of scenes. I have identified the changes before and after and guessed that there is indeed a demon girl in the palace. I am half-believing and half-doubting and dare not speak out. The Immortal's appearance can be said to be a guide to the maze!"

"ah?"

"Master, it was you who pointed out who the monster was!"

Lu Bei was overjoyed, and he grabbed Yun Zhongzi's hand, saying happily: "That's great, the Immortal Master is here, Chaoge City will be saved. The Immortal Master is here, and the fortune of the Shang Dynasty can continue for hundreds of years."

Yun Zhongzi was frightened by these words. The fortune of the Shang Dynasty lasted for hundreds of years because of him. What about Xiqi? Not to mention his fellow disciples who had committed murderous acts, his master Yuanshi Tianzun alone could chop him to pieces.

No, absolutely not!

"Master, the monster lives in Shouxian Palace. She is Su Hu, the daughter of Jizhou Marquis..."

"Your Majesty, please do not make rash judgments!"

Yun Zhongzi raised his hand to interrupt, waved his sleeve to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and said dryly: "Your Majesty is a mortal, who is the monster, how can you randomly identify it? If you kill the loyal and good people by mistake, wouldn't it be unfair to the good people!"

"The Immortal is rigorous."

Lu Bei nodded and asked, "Master, do you mean that Su Daji is not a vixen?"

"Ah, this..."

"Master, please say something!"

"Your Majesty, please don't worry. Let me take another look. I came here in a hurry just now, and it's possible that I saw it wrongly. In fact, there is no evil spirit in the palace."

Yun Zhongzi wanted to give himself a big slap in the face. You are just looking for trouble. Now you are in a dilemma and can't get out of this situation.

"I understand. The Immortal said that Su Daji is not a monster!"

"Your Majesty, this is what you said, I didn't say it." Yun Zhongzi said hurriedly.

"I understand. The Immortal said that Su Daji is a vixen!"

"I didn't say anything either."

Yun Zhongzi raised his hand and calculated, muttering something to himself. After a while, he said, "Let your majesty know that although this demon has great magical powers, it is not worth mentioning in my eyes. Her skills of deception are not good enough, so I can kill her with a little trick."

After that, he took out a wooden sword and said, "This sword is the sword for illuminating demons, named 'Juque'. Your Majesty, if you hang it in the palace, it can suppress the demonic energy. Small demons will be destroyed without any attack, and the demon's soul will be scattered in three days."

"Three days is too long. As the saying goes, a long night brings many dreams. Immortal has boundless magical powers. Why don't you do it yourself?"

"Ah, this..."

"Master, please say something!"

"Your Majesty, it is precisely because I have great magical powers that any action I take would cause a huge commotion, that I cannot take action to subdue the demon."

Yun Zhongzi thought it was weird and just wanted to run away: "This sword is enough to subdue the demon, Your Majesty, don't worry!"

After saying this, regardless of Lu Bei's repeated attempts to keep him, he claimed that he had a furnace of elixirs in his cave and that if he didn't leave now he would be in trouble. He then hurriedly jumped onto a cloud and left.

"Humph, nothing more than that!"

Lu Bei curled his lips and looked at the sword in his hand, a wooden sword without any fairy light at all.

He exerted force with his five fingers and broke it with a snap.

"Come here, send it to Shouxian Palace and let Lady Su taste it. Tell her that it was given to her by the immortal Yun Zhongzi from Mount Zhongnan, and tell her to be a good person."

In Shouxian Palace, Su Daji saw the broken sword and was so frightened that she almost revealed her fox tail.

The Juque sword that Yun Zhongzi originally gave out did have the ability to subdue demons, but when he saw King Zhou reveal the name of the demon as soon as he opened his mouth, he was frightened and took out a fake wooden sword instead.

This sword has no power to subdue demons, but Daji has no idea. She just thinks that this is a wild Taoist priest from Mount Zhongnan who is meddling in other people's business and even dares to hit Nuwa in the face.

"Damn you, Ox Nose! How dare you ruin the good deeds of the Empress!"

She knew that she was most likely exposed, so she asked the chicken spirit to change into her appearance, left Chaoge and went to the Nuwa Temple to meet her.

My Queen, something big has happened!

Lu Bei was thinking about how to break the impasse. After a while, he raised his hand and slapped his forehead.

I thought too much before and forgot about my biggest enemy, the master of the three monsters in Xuanyuan Tomb - Nuwa.

It's not some deep hatred, it's just a weird poem. He is the host, and everyone sits down to have a meal and two drinks. At most he kneels down and admits his mistake. Lady Nuwa is very magnanimous and will definitely forgive him, an unfilial son of the human race.

"Someone, I want to leave the palace!"

Lu Bei shouted loudly, calling on the two generals Chao Tian and Chao Lei to protect him, and rode at full speed to the Nuwa Temple.

Presenting facts and reasoning, he apologized sincerely. No matter how petty Nuwa was, she had to give him some face.

Not to mention that this is a sure thing, it is definitely better than the current situation.

It couldn't be that he was like King Zhou, who was so obsessed with a figurine that he became possessed and wrote a weird poem

No way!
