Chapter 20 The Emperor's Suspicion



Seeing that all the people in the martial arts world had followed Mu San back to the city, Dark Moon Fairy said to Sword Soul and Ghost Hand, "Take your men and clean up Dragon Bone Village. This will serve as the headquarters of the Dark Moon Pavilion. Dragon Bone Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack, so it's a good place!"

Just as she was about to leave, she turned to them and said, "Take inventory of the gold, silver, and treasures in the bandit den, and run the Dark Moon Pavilion as before."

Sword Soul asked hurriedly: "Then how can we contact the Pavilion Master?"

Dark Moon Fairy thought for a moment, then flew up a tree and caught a beautiful little bird. She stared at the bird's eyes for a moment, then handed it to Sword Spirit: "Don't kill it. Let it come to me if anything happens!"

The ghost hand touched his nose: "Master! What about me?"

Dark Moon Enchantress glanced at him and said, "How dangerous is it for you to steal things alone? Do you want to contact me to help you steal things?"

Ghost Hand lowered his head in shame and said nothing. Suddenly, a mouse was thrown into his arms.

Dark Moon Fairy said calmly, "Keep it, and let it come to you when something happens! You don't have to be restrained in front of me, I won't interfere with your work. Remember this! Nothing is more important than your life!"

After saying that, she flew up the tree, raised her eyebrows and looked at Blood Shadow: "Are you still going to follow me this time? I have also destroyed the token, so I can't return it to you." She looked like she was going to fight you if you are not convinced.

Xueying raised the corner of his mouth: "The token is useless to me. As long as you answer one question of mine, we will write off your theft of the token!"

Dark Moon Enchantress said impatiently: "Ask!"

Xueying asked: "Why aren't you afraid of Ding Kun's poison powder?"

Dark Moon Enchantress laughed and said, "I am born immune to all poisons!" Then she flew down the mountain.

This time, Blood Shadow didn't follow him. This Dark Moon Fairy's martial arts were unfathomable, and the things she knew were mysterious. Blood Shadow didn't need to mess with her!

Dark Moon Fairy made sure no one was following her, so she returned to the White Horse Temple. After changing her clothes, she carefully removed the mask. She wouldn't tell Blood Shadow that she wasn't afraid of the poison powder because she had the mask.

After she had finished dealing with the blood-stained dress and mask, and was sure there were no flaws, she turned around to wake up the two maids.

Luo Lingyue complained to Liuli and Linglong, "You said you would accompany me to the back mountain to pray for blessings, but you ended up sleeping all morning! Humph!"

Linglong quickly apologized to Luo Lingyue: "Miss! It's my fault! Don't be angry!"

Luo Lingyue pouted and said, "I don't care. I want to go to Tianxianglou for dinner! You two pay!"

Linglong and Liuli were at a loss for words. They quickly said, "Okay! Miss, just order whatever you want. We'll pay for it."

Ever since Luo Lingyue fell into the water, her temperament had become better and better. She wasn't rude at all anymore, and would occasionally act like a spoiled brat towards them. Normally, she was very kind to them.

In the past, Linglong and Liuli also served her wholeheartedly, but she often beat or scolded Linglong and Liuli.

Now the two little maids like their mistress more and more. She cares about them, considers many things for them, and protects them in front of outsiders.

Luo Lingyue and her two maids boarded the carriage. Linglong sniffed Luo Lingyue and asked, "Miss, why do you smell so strongly of blood?"

Luo Lingyue said calmly, "You were confused from your sleep, weren't you? How could there be a smell of blood in a peaceful Buddhist place?"

Linglong sat up straight and changed the subject awkwardly: "Miss, I don't have much money, and the food at Tianxianglou is very expensive!"

Luo Lingyue smiled and said, "Don't worry! If you don't have enough money, I can just pawn Liuli to Tianxianglou as a waiter!"

"Miss! You bully me!" Liuli shouted with a pout.

When they arrived at Tianxianglou, the boss came to greet them: "Miss Luo, the downstairs is full. Please go to the private room on the second floor."

Linglong looked at the place filled with people from the martial arts world and asked the boss, "Is today the martial arts conference?"

The boss's face was full of smiles: "Hey! Don't you know? The whole city knows that the leader of the Dark Moon Pavilion, Dark Moon Fairy, has wiped out all the bandits in Dragon Bone Village! All these people in the martial arts world are celebrating here!"

Linglong and Liuli were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths: "This is too amazing!"

The three of them went upstairs to the private room. Linglong said to Luo Lingyue, "This Dark Moon Pavilion Master is really doing a great job of getting rid of this evil for the people! You know, even the imperial court can't do anything about this Dragon Bone Village!"

She was afraid that Luo Lingyue wouldn't like to hear about these Jianghu stories, so she didn't continue. However, she saw Luo Lingyue listening to the gossip of the Jianghu people downstairs with great interest...

In the imperial study, Emperor Wen was shocked after hearing the secret guard's account. There was actually such a powerful figure in the martial arts world! He frowned and asked, "Is she from our Dazhao Kingdom?"

The secret guard replied, "Your Majesty, we still haven't figured out this person's origins. Her disguise is incredibly skilled, and her martial arts are incredibly powerful. Our men haven't been able to track her down!"

Emperor Wen waved his hand and let the secret guards go. As long as the affairs of the martial arts world did not involve the court and did not shake his imperial power, he would not interfere!

Eunuch Gao came in and said, "Your Majesty! The Minister of Justice, Lu Zheng, and the Prefect of Jingzhao, Lang Ming, request an audience!"

Emperor Wen sat on the dragon throne with a calm expression: "Let them in!" The two men probably had discussed the matter. They did not participate in any power struggle among the princes. Emperor Wen still trusted them very much!

After the two came in, Lang Ming reported: "Your Majesty, today the leader of the Dark Moon Pavilion, Dark Moon Fairy, destroyed the Dragon Bone Village!"

Emperor Wen said calmly, "Well! What do you two think about this?"

Lu Zheng said: "Your Majesty, this is a good thing!"

Emperor Wen narrowed his eyes. "A good thing? What if this Dark Moon Fairy is a spy for Bei Liu or Yue Wu? Oh! And You Li! Is that still a good thing?"

Lu Zheng sweatdropped. "This... I'll have someone monitor the Dark Moon Pavilion!"
