"It seems you need to practice fire control before you start crafting weapons."
Jun Feijue watched for a while, then stood up and said, "Let's go back to the city and buy a motorcycle. We'll travel while you practice."
After saying that, he quickly walked out of the cave.
Yu Bochun: "..."
They're leaving already?
What was the purpose of all that hard work I put into digging that hole for so long?!
Soon, a Mercedes-Benz sped steadily toward the secret palace, and a small spire suddenly appeared on the roof of the car, from which wisps of smoke occasionally rose.
Wuya Dynasty, General Baili's Mansion
"Your Majesty, I have prepared this for you..."
After nearly two weeks of recuperation, Bai Lisiyu finally woke up from his serious injuries.
She had been thinking that she would surely be punished this time, but who knew that the Empress would come to visit her in person.
This move directly suppressed all those restless factors.
"General Baili is injured, so there's no need for such formalities."
Seeing this, the Empress stepped forward and offered a helping hand, indicating that Bairisyu did not need to get off the bed, before asking, "How are you feeling?"
"Thank you for the medicine, Your Majesty. I am now much better."
As Bai Lisiyu spoke, his face full of shame, he said, "I failed to bring back Xuan Shi and that thief. I have failed Your Majesty's expectations and deserve to die."
"It's pointless to dwell on things that are already in the past. I just want to know the truth of what happened back then."
The Empress waved her hand magnanimously, then said solemnly, "General Baili, your cultivation level ranks among the top ten in our Wuya Dynasty. How could this be?"
"Chen...chen..."
Upon hearing this, recalling the humiliating scene from that day, Bai Lisi felt a stomachache; it was simply unbearable to recall.
How should she answer?
They say she was careless and was then thrown around and beaten by a five-year-old toddler whose cultivation was lower than hers?
Or perhaps, she ultimately consumed the Blazing Flame Pill but still failed to kill the other party, and even nearly got herself struck by lightning?
She couldn't bring herself to say any of them!
This is absolutely shameful!
"Just tell me the truth, it's fine."
However, the empress, eager to know the truth, was determined to get to the bottom of things. "The fact that the other party is so powerful is beyond my expectations. It was my oversight that caused the general to suffer such an injustice. But please tell me in detail what exactly happened."
"Your Majesty, actually..."
Upon seeing this, knowing that the Queen had misunderstood, Bairisyu's first reaction was to explain, but she quickly stopped herself.
If she tells the truth, not only will she be guilty of a huge crime, but she will also become the laughing stock of the entire capital. However, if she says that she failed because the other party was too powerful, her crime will certainly be reduced a lot.
Only she and the bandits knew about that battle. Of course, the bandits wouldn't tell the Queen the truth, so even if she was lying, no one would know!
"So, what do you think?"
The Queen spoke gently, and seemed to have great patience.
"Actually...that little girl was really fierce!"
All thoughts were formed in an instant, and Bai Lisiyu immediately changed his tune, saying with tears streaming down his face, "Her strength far surpasses mine, and she also possesses an unknown magic weapon that can unleash lightning. I originally thought that I could escape after consuming the Blazing Flame Pill, but who knew that I still couldn't escape."
Your Majesty, I'm sorry, but to save my own life, I had no choice but to lie to you!
Moreover, I wasn't lying, that little girl really is super fierce!
