However, to Nan Qu's surprise, as soon as she saw the city wall, she saw Taya standing on the high platform at the very top of the castle.

Nan Qu thought she was worried about her and was about to wave happily when she suddenly saw that Taya was tied up there.

Nan Qu was taken aback, and carefully made her way through the woods to a corner of the city wall.

Looking at the almost right-angled city wall, Nan Qu once again despised his three months of internal energy.

Just as she was about to enter the castle through the city gate, she discovered that there were many armored knights inside the castle whom she had never seen before.

Nanqu had a bad feeling.

Nanqu had previously heard Anqi and the others say that this was Taya's territory, and the king was Taya's father. Taya's father had three wives and five children.

In the Kingdom of Joyful Melody, there can be a queen, so Taya also has the right to inherit the throne.

In addition, in the Kingdom of Yueyun, men have always been physically stronger than women. However, this strength has its drawbacks, namely, that they are more prone to irritability as they get older.

The only way to calm them down was through the woman's singing.

This is precisely why, even in countries where men are dominant, women still hold half the power.

Of course, a woman's singing ability is not innate; it is initially taught by her mother. To truly learn to sing and soothe people's hearts requires a year of training.

Every woman in the Kingdom of Music and Melody learns; it is a national regulation.

Not everyone can guide women to unleash their potential, and in this country, the one who does is Princess Taya.

This undoubtedly provided a strong factor for Taya to become queen.

It was precisely because of this that Taya was framed by her brothers and sisters and sent to guard the most dangerous dragon's dwelling place, all in order to suppress her.

Of course, what followed wasn't said by anyone, but rather something Nanqu came up with herself.

With her current strength, defeating a single armored knight would be easy, but defeating an entire squad would be difficult. There are so many people here.

There's no hope of sneaking in from the front.

Nanqu walked to a corner of the city wall.

Looking at those incredibly high city walls, Nanqu was speechless.

Is it so high to prevent attacks from dragons? Dragons can fly, so being this high can only block her, a martial artist with only three months of internal energy cultivation.

Wait, the dragon can fly!

How could she have forgotten about this?

Nan Qu immediately pulled the giant dragon out of the space: "A Lei, grow bigger and send me up!"

Just as Regal was about to refuse, he saw Nanqu take out a poison pill: "Send me one up, and I'll give you another one after this is over!"

What's there to hesitate about? We've got two extra, and with another one tonight, we'll have three today!

......

"Sister Wang, please don't blame me. It's just that Father only thinks you're good."

Taya looked at her younger brother, the most cowardly of the five siblings, who turned out to be the most ruthless of their father's children.

"Did the dragon awaken prematurely because of you?"

Leo grinned smugly: "Yeah, it's your fault, you actually went easy on those lowly people and fought the dragon alone. Now those people have been sent to the sanctuary by you and are under the control of my men."

Taya trembled with rage. She was about to unleash a torrent of curses when she suddenly looked behind her with disbelief, then regained her composure: "If you kill me, no one in the Kingdom of Joyful Clouds can put the dragon to sleep. Aren't you afraid that the dragon will destroy all the cities?"

Leo laughed even harder: "Afraid? Do you know why the dragon awakened ahead of schedule? It's because I obtained a magic flute! When the time comes, as long as I play the magic flute, the dragon will obediently listen to me. With the dragon in my hands, this world will naturally be mine!"

"Oh? Is that so?"

The sudden, unfamiliar voice startled Leo: "Who! Who's speaking!"

However, as soon as Leo turned around, Nanqu struck his pressure points.

Leo could only stare wide-eyed as the giant dragon stood right in front of him, face to face, and he couldn't move at all.

Seeing the knights around him poised to attack, Nanqu glanced at them and said, "If you move again, I'll have the dragon devour you. Devour you alive."

Seeing that the black-armored knights dared not move, Nan Qu jumped off the dragon's back and immediately began to grope Leo, finding a flute on his lower back as expected.

Leo's eyes widened, he was so angry he was practically fuming, but he was powerless to do anything about it and could only watch helplessly as the little girl who had been holding his chest took away his precious magic flute.

"Ah, you mean this flute? Is it really that amazing?"

Nanqu looked at the flute in her hand, and was about to put it to her lips to try it out, but then she remembered that the flute had been played by someone else, and she put it away with some disgust.

Only then did he brazenly go over and untie Taya's ropes.

Taya looked at Nanqu with great excitement: "How did you do that? The dragon actually listens to you, it's incredible."

Nan Qu was speechless: "Hey, big sister, shouldn't the most important thing right now be arresting these people?"

Taya then realized, "Oh, right."

The thought of being able to borrow the tiger's power made Witaya very excited: "You lot, tie yourselves up together, or the dragon will eat you!"

After saying this, Taya excitedly glanced at the dragon, but the dragon was waiting there for Nanqu to give it the sugar pill.

Finally, the people and knights of the territory were released, while Leo and his men were imprisoned in the dungeon.
