Villain: I am not good at fighting.

Liu Muqing kept tapping the table with her fingers until dawn, thinking. In the early morning, the sunlight shone through the gaps and shone onto the table, covering it with a layer of non-dazzling silver.

The sound of morning bells came from afar, melodious and long, with thirty-six rings in three waves and a resonance of one hundred and eight rings. At that time, the palace gates were wide open and all officials entered the palace to pay homage.

Liu Muqing then spread out his spiritual sense and scanned the entire imperial city. He saw that all officials were in order, and there were many cultivators in the Qi Refining realm among the court ministers.

They looked respectful with passion in their eyes as they knelt down towards the throne of the Supreme Emperor, shouting "Long live the emperor!"

The throne of the Emperor was empty except for the Holy Dragon Queen Xiaoxiao, who stood quietly beside him. All the civil and military officials in the court knelt before her again.

"The Holy Dragon Lady is merciful and compassionate. She saves people from suffering and protects all directions."

Religion controls the temple, the king is not a king, and the ministers are not ministers. It is really ridiculous. After watching for a while, when he was about to retract his spiritual sense, Liu Muqing's eyes flashed and he discovered something unusual.

The Holy Dragon Queen was small and ruled on behalf of the emperor, issuing one order after another, including the coronation ceremony of the new emperor. All the civil and military officials in the court had no objection.

There was no objection, not even a subconscious argument...

"Brother Bian, are the disciples of Midie Mountain good at illusion?"

All the civil and military officials in the court were like puppets, and the only way to achieve this was with spiritual skills, such as illusion.

"To be precise, it is a phantom sword technique, but the possibility of an illusion cannot be ruled out."

Like Luoxia Mountain, Midie Mountain mainly practices the Taixuan Sutra. The Taixuan Taoism that the mountain master, Master Midie, comprehended is called the Huanjianshu, which includes some illusion techniques.

With Wang Xiaoxiao's cultivation level at the initial stage of foundation building, it is not difficult for him to use illusion to control Qi-refining monks and some mortals. Bian He just feels that this is not in line with Wang Xiaoxiao's previous style.

"Junior Sister Liu, is there a problem?"

"No, I'm just curious about Senior Sister Wang's methods. Senior Brother Bian, let me go out for a walk."

Liu Muqing felt that she had grasped the reason for Long Ye’s disappearance and urgently needed to verify it.

"I will go with you."

"No, I'm just going to take a walk and won't leave the capital."

No matter what is done in the capital, it cannot escape Wang Xiaoxiao's spiritual gaze, and vice versa, they can also know what Wang Xiaoxiao does.

He used magic to control the civil and military officials, seized control of the court situation, and ordered the Ministry of War to muster all the troops to rush to the capital within seven days to enthrone the new emperor and participate in the grand event.

Everything seems to be in order, but there is a paradox in it.

Luck is an invisible force, mysterious and profound. It can be influenced by many factors such as fame, prestige, and public opinion, and can be concentrated on a certain person or object.

However, people whose souls are manipulated do not have strong cognition. They cannot become tools for creating momentum, nor can they gather good fortune.

The fastest way to gather good fortune should be to brainwash people with religion, create fanatics, and then use the fanatics to influence the general trend, spread the faith, and gain the recognition of the common people.

The Dragon Cult usurped the Cambrian Kingdom. It had previously used religion to pollute the temple, but now it is using illusion to manipulate the civil and military officials in the court...

Put the cart before the horse.

A month ago, Cambrian transformed into a dragon, and the emperor was a puppet with a male body and a female appearance. A month later, a new emperor was enthroned, and the emperor was still a puppet with a male body and a female appearance.

In the people's perception, the emperor is the same person, so how could a new emperor ascend the throne?

The two clues conflict with each other. Liu Muqing basically confirmed that Wang Xiaoxiao's purpose was not to gather luck.

Long Ye’s disappearance may have nothing to do with luck or the black dragon. The root of the problem lies with the puppet with a male body and a female appearance.

Foundation building level, male body and female appearance, if he and Long Ye were two different people...

After leaving the restaurant, Liu Muqing went straight to the palace, intending to meet Wang Xiaoxiao alone and ask about the whereabouts of the puppet emperor with a male body and female appearance.

Inside the magnificent palace, Wang Xiaoxiao wrote furiously, approving various customs documents, ordering the army to enter the capital, and the garrison officials of various departments not to stop them.

"Junior Sister Liu, don't you know? I asked Senior Brother Zhou to take him out this morning."

"out?"

This time point is very ambiguous. In the morning, Liu Muqing was daydreaming and thinking about something, and her consciousness did not catch Zhou Rui's departure.

"To gather luck, one needs fame and prestige. I'll ask Senior Brother Zhou to take him to show off his power in front of others. If Junior Sister Liu is interested, she can go find him herself."

Wang Xiaoxiao raised her hand and pointed to the south, then continued to review official documents.

To show off one's abilities in front of others, in layman's terms, is to act cool, just like a courtesan who wins applause from the whole room with her erotic dance, or a plagiarist who becomes famous with his poems, all of which can be called showing off one's abilities in front of others.

The Holy Dragon Maiden killed the evil dragon with one sword. It was when Wang Xiaoxiao fought the black dragon that mortals saw her and the Dragon Cult intentionally promoted her, which made her the most beautiful woman in the world.

Of course, this world refers to the Cambrian Kingdom.

As for Wang Xiaoxiao, the story she told Liu Muqing and others was that she was defeated by the black dragon, and Long Ye came to her aid, and the two of them worked together to repel the black dragon.

"Sister Wang, are these civil and military officials in the court an illusion from your Butterfly Mountain?"

"Junior Sister Liu, don't keep us in suspense about what you want to say."

Wang Xiaoxiao put down the approval document in his hand and stared at the cute cat's head indifferently. No one would come to the palace for no reason. Liu Muqing entered the palace alone, naturally not because they were both women and came to reminisce and chat about family matters.

"Sister, killing a fellow disciple is a serious crime."

“Haha, Junior Sister Liu suspected that I harmed Senior Brother Long, but you don’t even think about it. With my cultivation level at the initial stage of foundation building, how could I possibly be a match for Senior Brother Long who is at the middle stage of foundation building?”

Wang Xiaoxiao's pretty face had a forced smile, and her tone gradually became cold, as if she was suppressing her anger.

"Then please explain, Senior Sister. A month ago, the Cambrian Emperor was a puppet with a male body and a female appearance. Why is the new Emperor who was crowned seven days later still a puppet with a male body and a female appearance?"

Liu Muqing took two steps forward, spoke sharply, and her eyes flashed with cold light as she confronted Wang Xiaoxiao.

In the people's perception, the emperor is still the same person, there is no new emperor ascending the throne at all, the new emperor's ascension to the throne is just an excuse to deceive them.

Two pairs of bright eyes met each other's gazes, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.

"Although his luck was taken away by Senior Brother Long, there is still a trace of it in his body. It is more convenient to use him to condense luck than to find a new one."

In the end, Wang Xiaoxiao gave in first. She no longer paid attention to Liu Muqing, called the guards outside the door, and gave orders.

When the guard came in, he seemed to lose sight of the cute cat head in the black robe. He took the documents and left respectfully. Wang Xiaoxiao saw that Liu Muqing had no intention of leaving.

He smiled and said:

"Junior Sister Liu, if you don't trust me, why not report this to the sect? At worst, the mission will fail and we will all be punished together."

"Senior sister, you are joking. The Holy Lady of the Divine Dragon killed the black dragon with one sword. It was so beautiful. Junior sister will not delay your business. Goodbye!"

After saying that, Liu Muqing left without looking back. She walked out of the palace in a hurry and came to an empty bamboo forest. She hugged her body with both hands and suppressed the trembling caused by excitement.

"Be patient..."

Since Wang Xiaoxiao wants to delay time, give her some time.
