A girl with unparalleled beauty appeared in Li Ming's mind.
She wore light red gauze, liked to wander barefoot around the palace, and liked to sleep on the throne.
He immediately opened the Boundless Bowl and projected Wu Xiao of the Wu Dynasty.
Want to know what she's doing now?
Wu Xiao wore a black veil over her face and a tight-fitting black dress that perfectly accentuated her figure, making her look like a lotus flower in the night.
She darted swiftly through the night, followed by the White Night Bird and the Three-Legged Golden Crow.
The White Night Bird and the Three-Legged Golden Crow are the ten divine birds of the Hundred Birds Palace, and are currently two of the most capable assistants in the Wu Dynasty.
This time, the information they brought back was not about the forbidden area of the sacred mountain, but rather an unexpected discovery that a military general was trading with the Yinshan Kingdom, and they planned to go and investigate.
The Wu Dynasty's strongest warriors have all been dispatched abroad, leaving them with no resources, so Wu Xiao had no choice but to take matters into his own hands.
“Your Majesty, actually, Ninth Sister and I can complete the mission,” said the three-legged golden crow.
“That general is very strong; you are no match for him. I need to ask him personally why he colluded with the Yinshan Kingdom.”
Wu Xiao moved swiftly through the dark night.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they emerged from the inner city of the palace into a luxurious restaurant in the outer city.
Wu Xiao sat cross-legged on the ground, stretched out his palm, and every movement of the entire restaurant was reflected in his palm.
Half an hour later, a military general dressed in plain clothes appeared. He was very low-key and went into a room. The person in the room was a female corpse general from the Yinshan Kingdom.
As soon as the military general entered, a smile spread across his face. He grabbed the female corpse general's slender waist and the two began to whisper sweet nothings to each other.
Li Ming, Wu Xiao, Bai Ye Niao, and the Three-Legged Golden Crow almost had a heart attack from watching this.
Two minutes later, we finally got to the point.
"How's the investigation going?" the female corpse asked, sitting on the general's lap with her arms wrapped around his neck seductively.
"I have investigated the information you requested. The two who fought against your Corpse Lord were the Ten Divine Birds of the 'Hundred Birds Pavilion' organization, which was secretly trained by the Empress."
They are Bai Ye Niao, ranked ninth, using the alias Bai Ye.
The fifth-ranked three-legged golden crow is known by the pseudonym Jinwu.
Both of these are very strong. I've heard that Jinwu is especially strong; it can reflect the sun and draw upon its power.
The female corpse will ask, "Do you have a list of the ten divine birds of the Hundred Birds Palace? Could I have a copy?"
The male military officer said, "I've only been able to find two of them. The others are not in the Wu Dynasty for most of the time, so I don't know where they are."
"Wu Xiao is indeed a remarkable figure. In less than two hundred years, he transformed the isolated Wu Dynasty into one of the top 100 powerful nations in the Eastern Continent of Zuzhou, and also cultivated the Hundred Birds Pavilion."
"Actually, her most powerful people aren't the Hundred Birds Pavilion, but the villagers of the Retirement Village. Those are the most powerful," the male warrior said.
What's the story behind the villagers in the retirement village?
The female corpse also knew about this matter. It is said that the villagers were very fierce, and the village chief's wife drove out a few domestic geese to wipe out an entire village.
"I don't know the specifics, but she was found in this village when she was a child. The villagers are all her elders, and everyone in the village is crazy."
"If we want to destroy the Wu Dynasty, is it impossible to bypass the Retirement Village?"
“Yes.” The male general nodded firmly, his eyes serious, and said, “However, there are even more powerful ones.”
The female corpse smiled alluringly, kissed the male general's cheek, and said with a smile, "As expected of the third-ranked general of the Martial Dynasty, tell me, what other secrets do you have?"
The male general pondered for a moment and said, "I suspect that there is an extremely powerful person by her side."
The female corpse will ask, "What do you mean?"
The male general said, "I am one of the three generals by her side. I can observe her every move. Sometimes she talks to the air, and sometimes she laughs like an idiot, as if she is talking to someone."
"Such a thing exists?" The female corpse felt that she had uncovered quite a few secrets today.
...
The same restaurant.
Bai Ye stared at the empress dressed in black: "Now that he mentions it, I've also noticed this problem. Your Majesty, you do sometimes laugh foolishly and talk to yourself. Are you talking to someone?"
Jinwu stared at the Empress and said, "I noticed that too."
"I didn't," the Queen waved her hand.
“You definitely have it. You’ve been talking to yourself and giggling for a long time now.” Jinwu stared into the Empress’s eyes.
"Really, no."
"Look me in the eye when you speak?" Jinwu and Baiye said at the same time.
"Let them look." The Empress stared into Bai Ye and Jin Wu's bird eyes, because they were still in bird form and were not afraid at all.
Although Jinwu couldn't see anything amiss, he still said, "Your Majesty, you definitely have a problem."
Bai Ye pouted and said, "No wonder all the officials have been trying to help you find a husband, but you never listen. It turns out you've been secretly having an affair with someone else. Tell me, who is that person?"
"No." Wu Xiao blushed. Was she supposed to be having a romantic conversation with thin air? She was speechless.
"Look, your face is red."
"..." Wu Xiao didn't speak, her face turning even redder, but she quickly regained her cold expression and said, "Do you still remember what we came here for today?"
Jinwu and Baiye kept quiet.
He just stared at the Empress with a strange expression, secretly thinking that he must find out the Empress's beloved.
We'd like to see who this person is.
...
As Li Ming watched this scene, a smile slowly appeared on his lips, a very happy smile.
The black dog at the door glanced at Li Ming a few times. This guy always grinned like an idiot; he definitely had something wrong with his head.
Li Ming was overjoyed. He went out and beat up the black dog before returning to look at the projected image in the Boundless Bowl.
...
Restaurant.
Wu Xiao, Jin Wu, and Bai Ye all stared intently at the male general and the female corpse general in the room, wanting to hear what other schemes or plots they might have up their sleeves.
