System invasion, Queen fights monsters to upgrade, kills the system

It was already the middle of the night when Xu Zhoujiao brought the Night Wanderer back to the general's mansion.

The entire general's mansion was silent. Only the gatehouse's lantern was still lit. Even the candles in the study had been extinguished.

Xu Zhoujiao gently pushed open the door and tiptoed over the threshold with Night Wanderer.

The candle in the study was suddenly lit, and the two people who were tiptoeing were nailed to the spot, still maintaining their sneaky appearance...

"Jiaojiao, are you back?"

Hearing someone calling her, Xu Zhoujiao turned her head towards the candlelight, and it turned out that the person who had just lit the candle was Yinshan Du.

Xuzhou Jiao breathed a sigh of relief and returned to her original posture.

"Brother Xiaodu, you haven't slept yet."

Yinshan Du lit all the candles in the study: "I was afraid that someone might spy on us in secret, so I extinguished the candles in the study to give them the illusion that we were resting."

Xu Zhoujiao looked around and didn't see her parents, so she asked, "Where are my parents?"

"The general took Aunt Ying and hid in the inner room behind the shelf."

He looked at the person behind Xuzhou Jiao and asked, "Jiaojiao, who is this?"

Xu Zhoujiao looked at the Night Walker who was still tiptoeing behind her and kicked him, saying with disdain for his intelligence: "He has seen you, so stop being so sneaky."

Night Walker muttered in his heart: It was you who said that everyone should rest and keep their voices down...

Xu Zhoujiao pointed at the Night Wandering God in black clothes and answered Yinshan Du's question: "Brother Xiaodu, he is the Night Wandering God of our capital."

"It was him and the Sunward God who had been monitoring the General's Mansion."

The Night Walker took out his Night Patrol badge and handed it to Yinshandu for inspection, smiling flatteringly: "This is my badge, please review it, Your Majesty."

"I am the Night Wandering God of Kyoto. All the previous orders were given by the City God. I am just an errand boy and I cannot disobey."

"But now, under your guidance, I have changed my ways and turned from evil to good. I will only follow your footsteps and obey your orders for the rest of my life."

After saying that, he looked at Xu Zhoujiao with a flattering expression: "Isn't it, sir?"

Xu Zhoujiao nodded: "That's right, very well said."

The Night Wanderer immediately straightened his back, held his head high and stood behind Xu Zhoujiao, showing his position in all directions.

Hearing the noise, the Xu couple came out from the inner room and looked at the extra person with confusion.

Xuzhou Chuang looked at the man who was following his daughter like a lackey and spoke hesitantly: "Jiaojiao, is this your new... subordinate?"

The Night Walker was suddenly happy: He said that he had a clear positioning, you see, it was discovered by others at once.

The Night Wanderer took out his Night Patrol badge again and handed it to Xuzhou Chuang: "General, I am the Night Wanderer of Kyoto. I was forced to monitor our General's Mansion before, but now, under your guidance, I have changed my ways and turned from evil to good. I will only follow your footsteps in my life and obey your orders first."

"General and Madam, if you have any problems in the future, please feel free to order me around. I will be honored."

Xu Zhoujiao looked at the Night Wanderer who was actively promoting himself, and couldn't help but stroke his forehead, doubting himself for a moment: What the hell did she get...

Yin Shandu standing by also had a look in his eyes that was hard to describe: Where did such a talented person come from...

Faced with such an enthusiastic night wanderer, Mr. and Mrs. Xu didn't know what to say and could only nod and smile awkwardly.

Only the person involved himself is still unaware of it.

The Night Wanderer looked at Xuzhou Jiao and asked for credit: How was it? I didn't embarrass her, did I?...

Xu Zhoujiao felt extremely tired.

She smiled and said to the conspicuous bag, "Night Walker, I have something to tell my family. Can you go out and help me keep watch?"

The Night Wanderer put away his flattering smile and replied seriously, "Night Wanderer, I obey your command."

After saying that, he opened the door, looked around, and then quietly closed the door.

Xu Zhoujiao pointed at the closed door and said to the three people in the study: "He still has many advantages, doesn't he?"

In order to save her own face, she tried hard to make amends for the Night Wanderer.

The three people in the study also tried their best to agree with her for Xu Zhoujiao's sake:

Yinshandu was the first to respond: "Yes, yes, he listens to you very much, which is his greatest advantage."

Xuzhou Chuang also nodded and said, "Yes, remembering to close the door is a good thing. For example, your deputy uncle never knew to close the door. Dad has told him many times, but he just won't change. Night Wanderer is especially good at this."

When it was Ying Tian's turn to praise, she was stuck: "Yes, the Night Wanderer, he, he, he..."

Yingtian really didn't know what to praise, so looking at her daughter's embarrassed eyes, she made the final conclusion directly: "Anyway, he is very good, really, Jiaojiao, you are a good person."

Xu Zhoujiao was extremely embarrassed, but had to greet him with a smile: "Haha, right, hahaha..."

The Xu couple could only laugh along with their precious daughter: "Hehehe... yes, yes..."

Yinshan Du looked at the family who were smiling awkwardly and tried hard to suppress the upward curve of his mouth.

He decided to change the topic away from the Night Wanderer and rescue Xuzhou Jiao completely: "Did Jiaojiao see Shi Jun?"

When Shi Jun's name was called, Xu Zhoujiao finally couldn't help laughing out loud: "Hahahaha, Brother Xiaodu, you don't know, I really tortured him tonight! Hahaha..."

She took out Shu Yanyu's dagger and waved it: "I used Sister Shu's dagger to scratch his statue. It hurt so much that he couldn't even straighten his back."

"His face is as white as a ghost..."

"He even knelt on the ground to apologize to me and said he would bring a valuable gift to our house to make amends."

Listening to how much fun her precious daughter was having in the City God Temple, Yingtian took her hand and asked her to tell her in detail.

The three of them were so delighted by Xu Zhoujiao's vivid description, especially when Wu Wenshu couldn't pull out the dagger no matter how hard he tried, and Shi Jun was in so much pain that he was almost dying, the three of them burst into laughter.

Ying Tian laughed and clapped her hands, completely abandoning her image as the mistress of the general's mansion, and said that she was happy, relieved, and very happy...

"Such a scum should be tortured slowly. It would be too easy for him to be killed directly."

"It's such a relief, Jiaojiao, well done!"

Xuzhou Jiao felt light-hearted when she heard her mother's praise.

Xuzhou Chuang was silently thinking about a question, and Yinshan Du, who was sitting opposite him, noticed it and asked, "General, have you thought of anything?"

"Your Majesty, according to the Night Wandering God, this Shi Jun knew what Jiaojiao would do before she even left the tomb, and he knew Xiaohe's whereabouts very well. I think there is either a master behind him, or he can foresee the situation."

Yinshandu nodded in agreement: "I think differently from the general. Jiaojiao said that Shijun talked to her about the underworld, but he only knew the first half, and the second half was basically a guess. I think if there is really an expert behind him, he should not be so half-informed. At best, he can only be regarded as having spies in the underworld, and the spies can only detect Xiaohe's return to the body with the help of dragon energy. He has no way of knowing the second half, or it is not convenient for him to follow."

"The most likely possibility is that he has used some magic to spy on the secrets of the heavens and found out where Xiao He's soul has gone. As for Jiao Jiao's identity as the Chosen One, when Jiao Jiao was in the tomb, immortals often came to visit her. Anyone with some magical powers would have noticed it. Shi Jun has contacts in the God Realm and the Underworld, so it's not difficult for him to find out Jiao Jiao's details."

Xu Zhoujiao also agreed with his inference: "I think what Brother Xiaodu said is right. He may have just got some advantage and knew everything in advance. He is using us to plan and achieve his own goals."

"If there really is such a master behind him, then wouldn't all my opportunities be exposed under his nose?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the four people's expressions changed.

Yes, if this person really exists, wouldn’t Jiaojiao be in danger?

Xuzhou Chuang comforted everyone: "It's too early to worry about this matter now. Maybe he is a friend rather than an enemy."

"The fact that he allowed Jiaojiao to grow up without interfering is the best proof."

"Yes, what the general said makes sense. This person most likely wants to use Shi Jun to provide us with information, but Shi Jun mixed it with his own purposes."

"Perhaps because the goal has been achieved, Shi Jun has become a discarded pawn."

After hearing this, everyone's anxious hearts began to slowly calm down.

Xuzhou Chuang took over the conversation: "It is precisely because Shi Jun was abandoned that he could only rely on his own spies to learn about Jiaojiao's whereabouts, and even took the risk of arranging Night Wanderer to continue to monitor the General's Mansion."

Ying Tian also nodded: "That makes sense."

Now that I know Shi Jun has been abandoned, I feel relieved. Yes, if the master behind Shi Jun was still there, why would he let Jiaojiao torment him yesterday.

As for who is the person behind the scenes, it doesn’t matter as long as he doesn’t interfere in Jiaojiao’s affairs.

Because it was already very late, Yinshandu and Xuzhou Chuang had to attend court tomorrow, so everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Back in the room, Xu Zhoujiao couldn't fall asleep lying on the bed. She connected all the clues today and found that some of them overlapped.

She picked them out separately and found that they were all about the dragon girl and the only daughter of the old city god.

If the dragon was the only daughter of the old city god, why did she smell like dirt? And why was she never seen?

Since there was no one there, how did Shi Jun get in touch with her?
