"wait?"
Yue Jiao gave a bitter smile, "How long will it take? Forget it, just stop listening to my self-pity. It will make you unhappy, and it won't be good if Mother finds out."
"I won't tell Aunt Snow."
Yue Jiao's expression seemed to improve a little after hearing this. She hesitated for a moment, then lowered her voice and said, "Xiao Yue'er, Lan Xiu must have told you about the attack on me a month ago.
Although you haven't agreed to your mother's request, you are already a prince in the eyes of others. You must be more careful when you go out."
Xiang Sheng was silent for a moment and nodded.
…
Not long after Xiang Sheng left the bedroom and returned to his residence, Lan Xiu came to him and asked, "What did the King say?"
Xiang Sheng shook his head. "Her Highness Yue Jiao is fine, Sister Lan, maybe you're just overthinking it."
"That's great."
Lan Xiu thought that Wang Zun had sent someone to investigate secretly, and her expression became relaxed. She didn't stay for long and continued to go out to work.
Xiang Sheng looked at her departing back, but there was no relief in his eyes.
Just by observing with her eyes, she couldn't see anything unusual, and there was nothing wrong with their conversation with Yueyuejiao.
But this does not mean that Yue Jiao is safe. There is another possibility.
If the consciousness that took over Yue Jiao's body could be controlled at will, it would normally be hidden deep in Yue Jiao's sea of consciousness, without any disguise on the surface. Even if the power of deceiving the heavens was used, no one would be able to detect it.
Unless, she uses her spiritual sense to explore Yue Jiao's sea of consciousness.
But in this way, if Yue Jiao really has any abnormality, she herself will be exposed as well.
Moreover, if this alarms the other party and causes them to change their original plan, what happens next will be even more uncontrollable.
It would be better to keep the troops in place and leave Yue Jiao to monitor secretly to be on the safe side.
As her mind raced, she suddenly sensed the inert stone talisman on her waist vibrating again.
She glanced at the words on it and her eyes suddenly turned cold.
"I am very pleased that you have the Demon King's trust.
The Fanlou Tower you visited yesterday is the core of the Twin Kings City's defensive formation. Find the core compass as quickly as possible and destroy it.
Once you've done this, you can take advantage of the chaos to return to Wandieping, and the position of Saint of Butterfly City will be yours."
Xiang Sheng casually replied "Yes, sir" and threw the lazy stone talisman aside.
The King of Ten Thousand Butterflies' goal was indeed to attack the Twin Kings City, just as she had expected.
The core compass is in her hands, so of course she won't destroy it. However, she can go to this Fanlou, maybe she can meet some colleagues.
Having made up his mind, Xiang Sheng called a secret guard to accompany him the next day and ran out of Silou directly.
Upon receiving this news, the Snow Demon King simply smiled and then instructed Diancui, "The little girl loves to play. Send more people to follow her secretly, but don't show up and disturb her."
"yes."
Diancui agreed, sighing inwardly. Wang Zun was truly doting on His Highness Wu Yue even more.
…
Xiang Sheng came to Fanlou and walked around the place with ease, but didn't see anyone else.
She was not in a hurry. She left a mark at the door and left Fanlou directly, strolling outside.
Half a day later, Xiang Sheng finally sensed that the mark had been triggered and immediately walked back.
At the same time, in the secret room inside Fanlou.
A blond young man with a domineering face was carefully pouring a bottle of colorless and odorless potion on the golden box in the center of the secret room.
The colorless potion touched the golden box and immediately corroded a large hole in the warning formation on the surface of the box.
"This method really works!"
The blond young man was delighted and immediately took out the box and opened it, but found that it was empty.
The blond young man's face changed drastically. When he looked up and saw the dense array patterns around him, he quickly calmed down and his face turned gloomy.
Did someone get there first? Or...
As he was thinking, he walked out of the secret room quickly. When he looked up, he saw a half-demon girl in a maid's uniform sitting by the coffee table in the inner hall, looking at him in surprise.
The blond youth was slightly shocked, but on the surface he immediately showed a look of vigilance. He asked sternly, "This is a restricted area. Who are you? How dare you trespass?"
"I'm trespassing?"
Xiang Sheng looked strange, "I think you are the thief. Where did you come out from just now?"
The blond youth's eyes turned cold, and he was about to explode, but at this moment, a secret guard hurried in, knelt down and said:
"Your Highness, calm down. Princess Wu Yue is the newly adopted daughter of the King. She does have the right to enter and leave Fanlou freely."
Your Highness?
Xiang Sheng looked at the young man and raised one eyebrow.
This lion is Wen Shen, another adopted son of the Demon King Xue Su besides Yue Jiao?
"Goddaughter Wu Yue?"
Wen Shen looked Xiang Sheng up and down, frowning slightly.
How come another adopted daughter appeared? Diancui didn't even send a message to inform him.
