That believe there is a true dragon.
To be honest, Su Hanyuan isn't ugly; he has a square face, sharp eyebrows, and bright eyes. It's just that his actions are incredibly despicable.
After Shen Qiexing jumped down from the ceiling again, he couldn't hold back any longer. He suppressed his nausea, flashed into Su Hanyuan's arms, leaned lightly on his arm, and said with seductive eyes, "Your Majesty."
“We can’t go on like this. How about we drink a toast together?” He raised a cup of sake, his breath sweet as orchids.
Bewitched, Su Hanyuan naturally obeyed him in everything. Taking advantage of the moment when the two were exchanging cups, he didn't forget to take advantage of Shen Qiexing, stroking his exposed forearm with his fingertips.
Shen Qiexing almost couldn't resist slapping him across the face.
After drinking, Su Hanyuan's steps became unsteady, and he swayed as he pointed at Shen Qiexing, seemingly wanting to say something, but he fell into a deep sleep before he could utter the first syllable.
"Mission accomplished!"
From the corner, Baozhu appeared and beckoned Shen Qiexing to help her get Su Hanyuan onto the bed.
"Are you sure this will work? He won't remember anything after he wakes up, right?" Shen Qiexing asked cautiously.
“Does the God still not believe me?” Baozhu kicked Su Hanyuan, a sly smile spreading across her face. “I have filled his memory with false information, that is, the things you did together, and he remembers nothing else.”
Shen Qiexing's expression turned horrified. "So what do we do next?"
Baozhu pondered for a moment and said, "Although Su Hanyuan has lowered his guard against me, with my strength, I am still unable to read his sealed memories."
"What do you mean by that?" Shen Qiexing narrowed his eyes. "His memories are sealed?"
Baozhu nodded and continued, "One day after he fell asleep, I tried to enter and read his memories, and accidentally discovered an area that I could not touch at all."
"I kept increasing the range and intensity of the illusion, but it was all in vain. He had deliberately sealed that memory. With my current strength, not only could I not see through it, but there was also a risk that he would discover it. So I had no choice but to withdraw."
Shen Qiexing stroked his chin and said, "In such a vast dragon clan, surely Su Hanyuan isn't the only one who knows the dragon emperor's whereabouts?"
"Yes, that's what I was just thinking. Although I can't do anything to Su Hanyuan, perhaps I can start with others."
"who?"
“An Ziyi”.
Shen frowned in confusion, "Who is An Ziyi?"
“An Ziyi is Su Hanyuan’s most trusted confidant. To put it this way, there may be things in the Tianpin Sea that even the God Venerable or Su Hanyuan do not know, but there is certainly nothing that An Ziyi does not know.”
"But An Ziyi is taciturn and extremely pedantic. He will not listen to anyone's orders except for Su Hanyuan."
Baozhu hummed twice and snapped her fingers. "Normally I have no reason to approach him, and he never gets close to anyone. He always has this icy face. It just so happens that the God has come, so we used you as an excuse to visit him, and I took the opportunity to release an illusion to enter his memories."
"Okay, whatever you say."
As Shen Qiexing was about to leave, Baozhu grabbed his wrist. He looked at her in confusion and saw her pick up a bone blade and cut her palm without hesitation, letting the blood drip onto Su Hanyuan, who was lying there.
"Alright, Your Majesty, let's go."
Baozhu casually tore off a piece of her skirt, hastily wrapped it around her hand, and let out a long sigh.
This makes it look more real; that's what she did on her first night too.
Their skill is so adept it's almost heartbreaking.
—
"No, no, open your eyes wider."
"That's a bit much. Why don't you try pursing your lips again?"
Shen Qiexing and Baozhu squatted in the grass nearby, trying to make different expressions.
"That works! The Divine Lord can just use that expression when facing An Ziyi; that'll surely charm him to death!"
Shen Qiexing sighed and continued practicing on his way to An Ziyi's residence, afraid that he would forget it later.
"Knock knock".
Baozhu took a deep breath and knocked on the door of An Ziyi's residence.
"They must be asleep by now," Baozhu muttered, half-squatting and pressing her ear against the door. "He's usually so quick to respond when Su Hanyuan calls him..."
Before she could speak, the wooden door was suddenly pulled open, and she didn't have time to dodge, so she fell face-first into the dirt in front of the person who came in.
An Ziyi looked down at her expressionlessly, "Is Miss Baozhu alright?"
"It's alright, it's alright," Baozhu quickly got up, pushed Shen Qiexing out from behind her, and smiled, "I'm sorry to bother you in the middle of the night. Actually, Miss Qiu has something to ask you."
Caught off guard by being pushed out, Shen Qiexing immediately switched to the expression he had practiced many times before, and said softly and weakly, "Brother An."
“Brother An, it’s like this. At 1:15 PM tonight, the King summoned A-Zhu to his bedchamber. However, A-Zhu was new here and didn’t remember the way. She accidentally came here and happened to meet Miss Baozhu. So A-Zhu asked Miss Baozhu to lead her there. But halfway there, she suddenly felt unwell. I wonder if she could rest here with Brother An for a while?”
Seeing that An Ziyi remained silent, he covered his mouth, coughed softly twice, and looked at An Ziyi pitifully again, only to find that his gaze was fixed on Baozhu, who was covered in sweat and felt so guilty that she wanted to lower her head to the ground.
Did he see through something?
Shen Qiexing secretly gathered his strength, ready to make a move at any moment, but just then, An Ziyi finally withdrew his gaze and slowly said, "Please come in."
He gestured for the two to follow him, and Baozhu, like a monkey that had been suppressed under the Five Finger Mountain for many years and was suddenly freed, jumped up.
“You scared me to death,” she whispered in Shen Qiexing’s ear. “I thought he had figured out that we were working together to mess with him.”
"What's so scary about a tiny serpent?"
Shen Qiexing raised an eyebrow. "Let alone An Ziyi, even if Su Hanyuan came, he couldn't do anything to us."
Just as the two were talking, An Ziyi finally stopped in front of a house. "Please come in and rest, ladies. I'll head back now."
"Wait a moment!"
Baozhu stopped him in time, touched Shen Qiexing's forehead in front of him, and sighed exaggeratedly, "Miss Qiu seems to have a fever. I have heard that Young Master An is skilled in medicine. I wonder if Young Master An could examine Miss Qiu?"
But where did his fever come from...?
Shen Qiexing glanced at Baozhu silently, and seeing her winking and making faces at him, he had no choice but to use a trick to fool her.
An Ziyi frowned slightly, but had no choice but to follow the two into the house.
"Miss Qiu is fine, just a little unwell due to the change in environment. She will recover in a few days."
He put away the handkerchief and was about to leave when Baozhu stopped him again. This time, however, Baozhu had a cup of water in her hand and said, "It's late at night and a bit cold outside. Young Master An, please have a cup of hot water before you go."
An Ziyi stared at the glass of water for a long time, so long that even Shen Qiexing couldn't help but wonder if he had noticed anything amiss. He then took the glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Sure enough, within three seconds, he too collapsed onto the table like Su Hanyuan and fell into a deep sleep.
"I'll go outside and keep watch for you. Hurry up."
After saying this, Shen Qiexing quickly walked out, closing the door behind him. Baozhu closed her eyes, quickly forming hand seals, and a wisp of pale blue light drifted from her fingertips to An Ziyi's brow.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, she suddenly opened her eyes, a slight smile playing on her lips.
She searched the room and finally found paper and pen. She left a message for An Ziyi and quietly left.
"alright?"
“Hmm,” Baozhu said softly, “Let’s go back first, and I’ll explain it to you in detail later.”

Shi Xu did exactly as Lu Yixin planned and won a great victory.
This is the first great victory achieved by the Peace Party after such a long stalemate in the war.
So Shi Xu took charge and held a grand banquet, partly to celebrate the victory in the war and partly to boost morale, hoping to maintain the momentum and defeat all the pro-war parties in one fell swoop.
Lu Yixin also came out for some fresh air, poured herself a cup of tea, clinked glasses with Shi Xu, and said with a smile, "Finally, a major worry has been resolved, and you can rest for a few days now."
"Thanks to you, Xin Xin," Shi Xu said, beaming with joy, "If it weren't for you, how could the White Lion have been freed so quickly!"
“Mrs. Sandalwood came to check on me yesterday, and she said I’m almost fully recovered.”
Lu Yixin wrinkled her nose and snorted at Shi Xu, "I don't have to lie in bed anymore, I can help you share the burden."
Shi Xu smiled and ruffled her long hair, saying gently, "Alright, alright, we'll do whatever our Miss Xin Xin says, okay?"
"Speaking of which," he put down his glass, as if suddenly remembering something, and asked curiously, "Have you ever thought about marriage? Is there a boy you like?"
Lu Yixin looked at him in astonishment, "Your question is a bit too sudden."
It was somewhat sudden... If Li An hadn't happened to see Lu Yixin when she came to visit a few days ago, he wouldn't have brought this up.
But that kid Li An's behavior was too obvious; only Lu Yixin probably couldn't see it.
"So you have someone you like?" Shi Xu asked, his voice rising at the end.
Could it really be Li An?
"What are you thinking, Brother Shixu? I'm not thinking about anything," Lu Yixin said with a playful laugh, putting her arm around his shoulder and raising a finger. "I won't consider this issue until you get married."
"I will not get married," Shi Xu said through gritted teeth as she was pressed down on him, almost unable to breathe. "Even Chu didn't get married, so I certainly won't either."
"I will always learn from Lian Chu."
"I won't do that either!"
Lu Yixin chuckled and climbed onto his back. "Grandpa has always told me to follow your example since I was little. Whatever you do, I'll do. I can't go wrong by following in your footsteps!"
He was happy to let Lu Yixin follow in his footsteps, step by step.
Even if the sky falls, he'll hold it up; his little sister will live a carefree life forever.
