It's truly like walking on thin ice while serving a ruler.
Fortunately, Zu'an was prepared: "Your Majesty, if it weren't for the help of Lady Yu's subordinates, I would probably have been killed by Han Fengqiu; as for Prince Qi's side, I was only able to deal with him by relying on the 'Sunflower Illusion' technique that Old Man Mi taught me to dodge."
"Even the most amazing movement techniques have their limits. If your cultivation hadn't reached the seventh rank, how could you possibly have managed to contend with him?" The emperor snorted, clearly not believing his explanation.
Zuan could only say with a troubled expression, "Your Majesty is wise. Actually, it was Old Man Mi who wanted to possess my body, but for some reason he failed. He died and his cultivation dissipated, but a portion of his power remained in my body, which is why my progress has been so fast."
The emperor wore an expression of certainty: "As expected, I've long suspected you possessed Xiao Mizi's cultivation level."
Zu'an respectfully replied, "Your Majesty is wise!"
But in my heart I was thinking, if you knew the truth, you'd probably be so embarrassed you'd want to crawl into a hole.
The emperor nodded in satisfaction: "You may leave. Remember to investigate the Demonic Cult's strongholds."
"Yes!" After leaving the Imperial Study, Zu An immediately found a place to change into a set of Gold Medal Eleven clothes, and then led the Embroidered-Robed Envoys who were already fully dressed and waiting to rush towards the secret stronghold.
When the Embroidered-Robed Envoy rushed in, the people inside the stronghold were all shocked. They had been secretly sold by Yun Jianyue, so their reaction did not reveal any flaws.
Then a fierce conflict broke out. This stronghold was full of experts from the Demonic Cult, but Zuan didn't even have to make a move. His silver and bronze embroidered envoys joined forces to suppress the entire stronghold.
He was secretly alarmed. The embroidered-robed messenger's formation was incredibly well-coordinated, especially the soul-hooking chain, which was impossible for even experts to defend against.
After bringing the prisoners back to the Embroidered Uniform Guard's prison, Zu'an finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the emperor would no longer suspect him.
After leaving the palace, he returned home easily, but he was stunned as soon as he reached the door.
There seem to be signs of someone breaking in!
But the other party didn't break the courtyard's defensive formation. Could it be that their cultivation level has reached an unbelievable level?
Having just fought against a peak ninth-rank opponent, he was now highly skilled and daring. Instead of backing down, he sneaked in.
Inside the room, a man and a woman were chatting. The man had red lips and white teeth and was even more handsome than the woman, while the woman was exceptionally beautiful.
At this moment, the boy said, "Sister, your brother-in-law is a very dishonest guy, you have to be careful."
The pretty woman asked in surprise, "Did he bully you?"
The boy blushed slightly and hurriedly said, "No, no, it's just that he's been flirting with other women outside, and he doesn't even try to hide it from me."
The pretty woman frowned: "That guy is alright in other aspects, but he's really outrageous in this one!"
The thought that he had slept with her best friend filled her with rage.
Anger from Chu Chuyan: +233+233+233...
"Exactly!" The boy chimed in, stirring up trouble. "Sister, do you think he's staying out so late? Did he spend the night at some vixen's place? I saw him exchanging glances with that woman in the carriage during the day. Maybe they've already arranged to meet tonight."
