"Although it's somewhat effective, it's still not enough." Sei Itō glanced at Li Mi, who was lying on the ground and looking at him with a ferocious expression, and said with some dissatisfaction.
"How is it? Are you alright? " Sei Itō then turned around and looked at Zhen Ye, who had returned to his adult appearance and was tidying up his clothes.
"I'm fine," Zhen Ye replied.
"But then again, it's been a long time since I've seen you as a child. You're really cute," Sei Itō looked Zhen Ye up and down and teased.
"I can't be bothered with you," Zhen Ye unhappily snorted and turned around to walk toward Ya Ye.
Sei Itō retracted his gaze and looked at Li Mi, who had already stood up from the ground, and said indifferently, "You guys watch over him. I'll deal with this guy first." Then, without giving Li Mi, whose expression had changed slightly after hearing his words, time to react, Ye Xiwen directly released his powerful mental power and sent it straight into Li Mi's forehead, whose mind had become unstable due to the current situation. Using the loophole in his mind exposed by his injury, Ye Xiwen created the illusion that was most in line with his ambitions, and then secretly hypnotized Li Mi.
Sei Itō's luck was not bad. While he was hypnotizing Li Mi, no one came to report it, causing the attack to be exposed and causing a commotion in the camp. Therefore, after half an hour, Sei Itō successfully finished hypnotizing Li Mi.
Then, just like how Sei Itō treated others in the past, he used the omnipotence of the God of Life to extract an omnipotent life energy and projected it into Li Mi's body, helping him heal the internal injuries caused by Zhen Ye's True Dragon Style Needle Forging Technique.
"My Lord," Li Mi, whose complexion had regained its rosy color under the nourishment of the life energy, greeted with cupped fists.
"Yes," Sei Itō slightly nodded and accepted Li Mi's greeting.
"Send someone to call Wang Bodang, Zu Junyan, and Shen Luoyan here." Sei Itō ordered after using psychokinesis to put the table and chairs back in their original positions and spontaneously walked to the left and sat down.
"Yes." Li Mi respectfully accepted the order, and then walked out of the central army camp. He casually found a soldier to pass on his order to wang bodang and the other two.
In less than five minutes, a broad-shouldered man, who looked like he was wearing silver armor, strode into the tent in a hurry. When he discovered that there was an outsider in the tent, he stopped. With a calm expression, he stopped and bowed, "Greetings, Duke Mi!"
"Boldang, please take a seat first." Li Mi, who was sitting upright on the high seat, said with a smile.
"Thank you, Duke Mi!" The man whom Li Mi called Bo Dang bowed again, then strode to the third chair on the right side of the tent and sat down. He raised his head, and a pair of eyes that flickered with a sharp light and filled with doubt looked at Sei Itō and the others. Finally, he stared at Tsuki Emieli who was carrying a Japanese style longbow on her back.
At the same time, Hui Meili's gaze also landed on the silver-armored man with a beard. With a fair face and a faint scholarly aura, wang bodang looked at him, and a sharp aura gradually spread out between the two of them.
"Could it be some kind of divine archer's profound sense?" Sei Itō, who noticed the change in aura between Tsuki Emieli and wang bodang, looked at the two of them with interest and thought to himself.
However, just as the battle of auras between the two of them became more and more intense, a man and a woman walked into the tent together.
The man was six feet tall, although he could not be considered to have a tiger's back and a bear's waist. However, he could still be considered handsome. His face was white without any beard, and he wore a dark blue scholar's robe. His eyes were black and white, bright and mysterious, and he gave off a shrewd feeling.
Needless to say, this man was Zu Junyan. It was just that his appearance was short and small compared to the appearance recorded in history. His speech was inarticulate, and it was completely different!
As for the woman, she was Shen Luoyan. As expected of her name of Luoyan, she had such a beautiful appearance that could captivate fish and beasts. She was more than twenty years old, at most four or five years old. She was tall and looked to be about 1.65 meters tall. She wore a plain yellow female warrior's robe. She had an oval-shaped face, skin like jade and snow, eyes like autumn water, long and slender eyebrows, and tender red lips slightly curled up, as if she was smiling at people all the time. Her long black hair was casually tied up with a gold and jade hairpin. However, the most attractive thing about her was the confident and noble temperament that she exuded. Not only would it make ordinary men feel ashamed of themselves, it would also make arrogant men want to conquer her.
"Greetings, Duke Mi!" Zu Junyan and Shen Luoyan, who had also discovered the existence of other people in the tent, stopped at the same time, cupped their fists and greeted.
"Sit first." Li Mi pointed at the two empty chairs that wang bodang had vacated and said.
"Yes." Zu Junyan and Shen Luoyan looked at each other. Following his words, they walked to the chair on the right.
It was also at this time that Sei Itō's right index finger landed on the armrest of the chair and lightly tapped the armrest. Following that, a muffled thump sounded, and the air in the tent suddenly shook. Then, the restriction that had been opened to welcome wang bodang, Zu Junyan, and Shen Luoyan closed again, isolating the tent from the outside world.
At the same time, Zhen Ye, Ya Ye, and Fu Junzhuo jumped out from behind Sei Itō and found wang bodang, Zu Junyan, and Shen Luoyan, who were completely unaware of what was going on, and used their methods to attack the three people.
"Duke Mi!?" Shen Luoyan, who was barely able to block Ya Ye's attack, cried out in disbelief.
Wang bodang, who had always been loyal to Li Mi, and Zu Junyan, who was Li Mi's right-hand man, had the same expression as Shen Luoyan.
However, no matter what the three of them were thinking, the situation in front of them made them have no choice but to deal with it wholeheartedly. Even so, the gap was still there. In addition to the mental turmoil caused by this matter, as well as the influence of Sei Itō and the others who were sitting on the side, Shen Luoyan and the other two did not last for a few rounds before they were knocked down to the ground by Zhen Ye, Ya Ye, and Fu Junzhuo, and had their acupuncture points sealed.
"Duke Mi, why!" Shen Luoyan stared at Li Mi and asked.
"No reason." Ito Sei, who was at the side, said indifferently. Then, he extended his hand and beckoned, wang bodang's body immediately flew in front of him uncontrollably, and was pressed against his forehead by Ito Sei's index finger.
After saying that, he ignored Shen Luoyan and Zu Junyan who were looking at him and closed his eyes to focus on hypnotizing wang bodang.
Among wang bodang, Zu Junyan, and Shen Luoyan, who was the most difficult to hypnotize? Wang Bodang, who was wholeheartedly loyal to Li Mi, was a tacit subordinate. Although this fellow's martial art skill was not mixed, in the end he was still a high-ranking military officer, his willpower was very firm, moreover, his loyalty to Li Mi was completely unquestionable. Even in history, when Li Mi was defeated, wang bodang followed closely by his side until he was powerless to reverse the situation and died together. It was not something that Zu Junyan, who later joined the Tang Dynasty, could compare to. At the very least, Zu Junyan did not have the resolve to stay on a branch until death.
As for the beautiful Military Advisor Shen Luoyan, because of her complicated thoughts, the difficulty of hypnotizing her was even lower than Zu Junyan's!
Of course, in the current situation where they were ruthlessly betrayed by the loyal Li Mi. Their hearts were dead, and the holes in their hearts were infinitely enlarged, making it easier for the three of them to be hypnotized than usual.
Therefore, not long after, about ten minutes or so, wang bodang was completely hypnotized by Sei Itō, and a spirit seed was planted in the core of his consciousness.
"Sir." Freed from the psychic power, wang bodang saluted Sei Itō and called out.
"En." Sei Itō nodded and received wang bodang's greeting. Then, he used his psychic power to wrap around Zu Junyan, whose eyes were beginning to flicker, and pulled him in front of him like wang bodang.
"Wait, I'm willing to surrender." Just as Sei Itō's finger was about to touch Zu Junyan's forehead, Zu Junyan suddenly said loudly.
"Oh?" Sei Itō looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, and a soft moan came from his throat.
"Although I don't know what you did to wang bodang, I think it's a kind of mind control secret technique. I'm guessing that the reason why Duke Mi didn't kiss or listen to us when we were captured was also because he was affected by this secret technique. Therefore, instead of being affected by this secret technique and becoming a puppet, I, Zu Junyan, am willing to offer you the power of a dog and horse in order to obtain freedom of thought. "Zu Junyan said with a stern expression.
"You really know how to read the situation." Sei Itō said with a smile that was not a smile. "But that's good too. It'll save me some trouble."
Seeing that Sei Itō had agreed, Zu Junyan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. However, before he could completely release it, Sei Itō's next move made his expression change slightly, and his eyes flickered.
"But it's precisely because you know how to read the situation. So, in order for you to not turn around and sell me out, you must sign this contract with me and drink this bottle of medicine to calm my heart. " Sei Itō flipped his hand and took out a contract scroll made from the hide of a magical beast and a test tube containing a nanomachine. He handed it to Zu Junyan.
Zu Junyan quickly thought about it, but he realized that if he didn't drink the "poison" (he thought) and didn't sign the contract, he would have to accept the other party's mind control secret technique. If he didn't accept the mind control secret technique, he would have to drink the poison. With no other choice, Zu Junyan gritted his teeth and chose to eat the poison to sign the contract.
"I don't believe that there's no antidote to this poison of yours in this world." Zu Junyan opened the bottle cap and drank the nanomachine.
Just as Zu Junyan opened the scroll and was about to find a pen to sign it, Sei Itō's voice rang out again. "Sign the contract with blood."
Zu Junyan didn't hesitate when he heard this. Opening his mouth, he bit the tip of his right index finger and signed his name on the inexplicable contract scroll! In the next moment, a faint light flashed on the hide scroll, and a dark and gloomy energy shot out from the scroll and into Zu Junyan's forehead.
Seeing this, Zu Junyan's expression changed again. He seemed to have signed something very extraordinary.
"You've heard of curses and witchcraft, right?" Ito Sei reached out and put away the contract scroll. He looked at Zu Jun Yan, whose expression changed again, and said with a smile, "Although the effects of this contract scroll are not all those, in terms of power, it is much more terrible than curses and witchcraft. You will never want to experience it."
Zu Junyan's mouth twitched. He wanted to make a smile, but he couldn't do it. He could only silently walk to the side and stand beside Wang bodang.
"This young master, could it be that you really want to do such a frightening thing to this little girl?" Wrapped in psychokinesis, Shen Luoyan's body flew uncontrollably in front of Sei Itō. She revealed a sorrowful expression as she complained.
"I've heard of the great name of the Pretty Strategist whose heart is like a snake and scorpion. Do you think I'll allow a woman like you who can stab me in the back at any time to exist? So if you don't want to die like this, unable to even realize your ambitions, then obediently let go of your mind and accept my control. " Sei Itō spoke as if he was joking with a close friend. He smiled and said gently, "Don't worry, my secret technique has always only been used to maintain one's loyalty to me. It won't control one's thoughts or personality. So after accepting my secret technique, you will still be you, Luoyan. You won't be able to change into anyone else."
"But from Luoyan's point of view, if Luoyan inexplicably becomes Young Master's person, then Luoyan will no longer be Luoyan." Shen Luoyan continued to flaunt her assets. "So if Young Master really cares for Luoyan, then don't use those frightening methods on Luoyan."
"But Luoyan can guarantee that from now on, Young Master will be my only follower. I won't have the slightest thought of disobeying you. What do you think, Young Master?" Shen Luoyan said pitifully.
Sei Itō smiled and didn't say anything. He only placed his right index finger on Shen Luoyan's forehead.
"Young Master, Luoyan will bear a grudge against you." Shen Luoyan saw this and closed her eyes slightly. She sighed faintly and said in an indistinct voice.
"It doesn't matter. I believe that you will definitely know how good I am in the future." Sei Itō smiled and said no more. He activated his psychokinesis and invaded Shen Luoyan's mind, using a hypnotic technique on her.
It was unknown whether Shen Luoyan had accepted her fate or what, but her subconscious surprisingly didn't resist at all. She very smoothly accepted Sei Itō's psychokinesis and planted a psychokinesis seed there, leaving behind a strong enough hint.
"Milord." A few moments later, Shen Luoyan opened her eyes and blinked. She smiled sweetly and bowed to Sei Itō.
"How do you feel?" Sei Itō asked with a smile.
"Just as Milord said, other than being unable to betray Milord, my other emotions haven't changed," Shen Luoyan said with a charming smile.
At this point, Li Mi's Wagang Army had been completely subsumed under Sei Itō's command, becoming one of Sei Itō's hidden pawns in unifying the Great Tang.
Since Li Mi had become a hidden pawn, Sei Itō naturally wouldn't be stingy with his help. He was prepared to help Wagang seize Xingyang in advance. Of course, this matter had to wait until Li Mi's ambush succeeded and Sei Itō smoothly controlled Qu Rang.
"Since Milord already has Duke Mi, why do you still want to keep Qu Rang?" Shen Luoyan asked.
"A unified Wagang without internal conflicts is the army I want," Sei Itō indifferently said.
