"That's impossible!"

The Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect was filled with astonishment and disbelief.

The patriarch of the Free and Unfettered Sect, Xiaoyaozi, has imprisoned himself in the Profound Prison. He will not emerge until he resolves the flaws in his own cultivation technique. Under such circumstances, why would he release the Free and Unfettered Sect's enemies?

"idiot!"

Rong Xi glanced at the saintess; she was indeed very beautiful, but unfortunately, she didn't know how many years this old monster had lived.

"By the way, how did you get captured by the Free and Unfettered Sect?"

The Fourth Prince then changed the subject, thinking of this crucial question.

He repeatedly questioned Magpie and the others, but still couldn't find out when Rong Xi had been switched by the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect. Even though the Holy Maiden was very powerful, it was truly unbelievable that she could switch people under the noses of Granny Rui and Granny Xiang.

"I have to thank Consort Hui for this!"

Rong Xi then recounted how she had been ambushed in Consort Hui's treasury.

"Consort Hui?!"

Upon hearing Rong Xi's revelation of the truth, the Fourth Prince's expression became even more grave.

Consort Hui was one of Emperor Kangxi's most beloved consorts. Among the four consorts of the imperial harem, Hui, Yi, De, and Rong, Consort Hui was ranked first.

If Consort Hui is indeed a member of the carefree faction, this matter will definitely cause a huge uproar in the court. The First Prince is Consort Hui's son, although he is not the Crown Prince. However, there are quite a few people loyal to the First Prince in the army and in the court.

Is it difficult to do?

Rong Xi looked at the Fourth Prince and spoke softly.

The Fourth Prince forced a smile and said, "It is a bit difficult. Consort Hui is relatively easy to deal with, but it's my eldest brother who is causing some trouble!"

The First Prince's cultivation level is now only one step away from reaching the Nascent Soul stage. Once he reaches the Nascent Soul stage, he can be granted the title of Prince, and although his status in the court cannot compare with that of Emperor Kangxi, it will still be enough to govern a region. Even if Emperor Kangxi wanted to deal with the First Prince, he would have to think twice.

If a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage were to betray the Qing Dynasty, the impact would be absolutely earth-shattering.

"I don't care! If Your Highness finds it difficult, then I'll handle it myself!"

Rong Xi had no intention of letting this matter go so easily.

If it weren't for her having some tricks up her sleeve, and the fact that the system's blessed land wasn't restricted by the forbidden formation, she would definitely have died this time.

Since Consort Hui disregarded the rules in the first place, why should she follow them?

If you want to kill me, I will kill you!

What are you going to do?

"kill!"

After Rong Xi finished speaking, she walked straight outside.

"etc!"

The Fourth Prince quickly pulled Rong Xi back, "Don't be ridiculous. Even if you can kill Consort Hui, what about my eldest brother? Does he expect you to kill him too? If that happens, the court will surely be in chaos!"

"Let it be chaotic then! Who cares?"

Rong Xi's face was very cold.

No matter what the Fourth Prince says, or what Emperor Kangxi does, even if the Empress Dowager intervenes, this time, she is determined to kill Consort Hui.

Admittedly, Consort Hui was merely a tool of the carefree faction.

But so what? She'll kill anyone who tries to harm her.

"I will give you an explanation for this!"

The Fourth Prince stopped Rong Xi, "Give me some time, I need to go to the palace!"

"We should inform Father Emperor about this matter."

"Very well, I'll give you, Prince, one hour. If there's no result after one hour, I'll resolve everything myself!"

With a gluttonous beast by my side and a system at my disposal, why can't I be willful?

Seeing that Rong Xi was determined, the Fourth Prince did not delay any longer and immediately led his men to escort the Holy Maiden of the Xiaoyao Sect straight to the Forbidden City.

...

Rong Xi did not go with them, but instead asked Granny Rui to call over Xi Yue, Lian Xing, Yin Shuang, and Ao Xue. She had obtained these four girls from Yi Pin Tang, with the aim of helping them master the Four Symbols Chaos Array.

The Four Symbols Chaos Array requires four people to work together to create chaos.

Before long, the four women, Xiyue and Rongxi, were brought before Rongxi.

"This servant greets Your Highness, may Your Highness be blessed!"

Upon learning Rong Xi's true identity, the four women were utterly shocked. However, unlike Xi Que and Jiang Zi, they did not possess much loyalty to Rong Xi. Their target was the Fourth Prince.

"This princess has a special opportunity for you!"

"On the condition that you swear a solemn oath to be loyal to this Princess for the rest of your lives, and if you break the oath, may you be struck down by heaven and earth!"

In the world of cultivation, such vows made in accordance with the will of Heaven are real and effective.

For a cultivator, the cultivation of one's mental state is indispensable. If one breaks one's vow, one's mental state will inevitably be flawed, and when inner demons strike, there will be no possibility of overcoming them.

"My lady, I only wish to be a mortal, not to cultivate myself. I beg you to grant my request!"

The first person to respond after Rong Xi finished speaking was Xi Yue, whom Rong Xi considered to be destined to be with her.

"Can!"

Everyone has their own aspirations, and Rong Xi will not force others to cultivate.

Since Xiyue was unwilling to cultivate, she did not force her.

"However, this opportunity only comes once. Once you miss it, you will never have another chance to cultivate. I hope you will consider this carefully before making a decision!"

"My lady, I have already considered it. Please grant my request!"

Xi Yue's attitude was quite resolute.

Seeing this, Rong Xi stopped talking.

The Four Symbols Chaos Formation relies on these four people working together. Now that Xi Yue is unwilling to cultivate, the Four Symbols Chaos Formation is no longer possible.

"You may all leave!"

Rong Xi was originally overjoyed to create the Four Symbols Chaos Array, after all, the system had issued the task.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.

As Xi Yue and the other three were about to leave, Rong Xi turned to look at Granny Rui and said calmly, "Granny Rui, when Su Peisheng returns, have him go and find out if any of the guards in the manor are still unmarried. If so, send Xi Yue and the others away!"

She's not a saint!

When he brought Xi Yue and the other three back from Yipintang, he had his own agenda.

Now, her plans have failed, and the system's side quests have come to nothing. In other words, these four people are of no value to her.

What were these four stunning beauties planning to do with the mansion? She had read plenty of Qing Dynasty time-travel novels.

"Please forgive me, Madam!"

"Please, Your Highness, have mercy!"

"This servant does not wish to marry; I am willing to serve my wife for the rest of my life!"

Upon hearing what Rong Xi said to Granny Rui, the four people immediately became anxious. They stopped walking out and instead turned around, knelt on the ground, and begged Rong Xi for help.

Rong Xi spoke coldly and indifferently, saying, "I have my own servants. Back in Yipintang, I only lent you a hand because I felt sorry for you. Now, I have no reason to support you for nothing!"

"My lady, this servant is willing to become a nun!"

"This servant is willing too!"

Upon hearing Rong Xi's words, Xi Yue, who had just firmly stated her willingness to become a mortal, was the first to express her willingness to cultivate.

Unfortunately, just as Rong Xi said, there is only one chance!

"Take them away!"

Rong Xi didn't waste any time and directly asked them to leave.
