Looking at the ridiculous scene in front of him, Great Reverend Chen's breathing quickened, and the veins on his forehead throbbed. He couldn't watch anymore, so he closed his eyes and blocked his hearing.
This little fox demon was really shameless to the extreme. If she had the ability, she should have fought with Lord Li. Why did she find a little demon that looked similar to him and shout at him? Who was she trying to disgust?
Out of sight, out of mind. He patiently waited for the hostage exchange.
Soon, Hu Jiu brought a woman over.
Great Reverend Chen opened his eyes again after sensing it with his spiritual perception.
Hu Jiu held the woman and asked, "Where's Hu Liu?"
Great Reverend Chen waved his hand, and a figure appeared out of thin air. It was a seductive and beautiful woman, but her entire body was tied up, and her mouth was gagged with a piece of white cloth.
After both sides exchanged hostages, Great Reverend Chen grabbed the woman's shoulder and left without looking at Phantom Princess again.
On the highest peak of Thousand Fox City, a Mirage Faction powerhouse asked a handsome man, "Great Elder, why didn't you capture this person? If everyone attacked together, he wouldn't be able to leave Thousand Fox City today."
The handsome man shook his head and said, "When two countries are at war, they don't kill envoys. It's not difficult to capture him, but if the brothers and sisters of Meizong Faction fall into the hands of others in the future, only death awaits …"
In the courtyard, Hu Jiu untied Hu Liu, removed the white cloth from her mouth, and unlocked her magic power shackles. She quickly asked, "Sister Liu, are you alright?"
Hu Liu spat a few times and said through gritted teeth, "I'm fine!"
Hu Jiu sighed and asked, "How did you suddenly get exposed?"
Hu Liu said angrily, "How should I know? I hid well and was still waiting for an opportunity. Princess Yunyang's residence was suddenly surrounded by Great Zhou's Great Reverend's Department. Two Sixth Realms and more than a dozen Fifth Realms appeared in front of me. What happened? Who leaked the news …"
Hu Jiu shook her head and said, "We haven't found him yet, but you don't know that Wolf Thirteen is actually a spy from the Wolf Tribe. You've misjudged him …"
Hu Liu might have returned safely, but this wasn't a good thing for Meizong Faction.
She was originally a spy with an important mission, but she was caught by the Great Zhou court and exchanged with a Great Zhou spy, causing Meizong Sect to lose an important chess piece.
In addition, they had yet to find out how Fox Six's information was leaked. In other words, Meizong Sect had a spy with an unknown identity. They didn't know when he would give them another heavy blow.
For a long period of time, many people in Meizong Sect became nervous and wary of each other because of this incident …
In the imperial study of Fairy's Capital, Great Deacon Chen was reporting on his work.
Facing the youngest and most powerful person on the continent, his attitude was extremely humble.
The mission this time was very simple. He just had to bring the fox demon to the Yao Nation in exchange for the spy of the Ju Wei. Just as he was about to leave, the Empress suddenly asked, "Did you see someone who looks like Li Mu in the Thousand Fox Nation?"
Head Reverend Chen was stunned for a moment before he nodded and said, "I saw it."
He didn't know how the empress knew about this. Did the imperial court have other spies in Qianhu Nation?
The empress asked again, "What is he doing?"
Great Deacon Chen said, "I almost forgot about this. That fox demon is really shameless. I don't know where she found a little demon who looks exactly like Lord Li. In front of me, not only did she ask that little demon to massage her legs and shoulders, but she also asked that little demon to wash her feet. She's deliberately humiliating the imperial court …"
The curtain was silent for a long time before the empress's voice was heard again. "Wash her feet?"
Great Deacon Chen nodded and said, "Yes. She deliberately asked that little demon to do these things for the imperial court. She's using this shameless method to humiliate the imperial court …"
After a long silence, the empress said, "You may leave."
Great Deacon Chen cupped his hands and left the imperial study.
After leaving the imperial study, he suddenly felt a powerful aura soaring into the sky from the palace behind him before he took a few steps.
Great Deacon Chen sighed. It seemed that the fox demon's goal had been achieved.
She was one of her favored officials, and perhaps not only that. Being ordered around by another demoness like this, not to mention the Empress, even he would not be able to tolerate it.
Meanwhile, in the imperial study, Mr. Mei was trying his best to console the empress.
"Your Majesty, don't be rash. You can't leave the Divine Capital anymore …"
"He's enduring for the sake of the imperial court and Your Majesty …"
"If he hadn't endured these grievances, we wouldn't have caught that fox demon spy …"
"It won't be too late to make that fox demon pay the price when the opportunity arises …"
… …
Qianhu Nation.
Li Mu waited for Phantom Princess to ask him to study the Heavenly Tomes. However, Great Deacon Chen had already left for several days, and Phantom Princess hadn't mentioned it again.
Li Mu now suspected that he'd been tricked by Phantom Princess.
What she meant by "a few days later" was probably the same as the next time.
However, Li Mu really believed her at that time. For this, he even gave up his dignity.
Before this, he'd only touched Liu Hanyan's jade feet. Now, he was reduced to washing a fox's feet. He couldn't accept this. One day, he would also order Phantom Princess around like a servant for a few days to relieve the humiliation in his heart.
Li Mu was thinking about the Heavenly Tomes. When he was drinking with Hu Jiu and the others, he asked indirectly, "Brother Hu Jiu, have any of you seen the Heavenly Tomes?"
Hu Jiu shook her head and said, "The Heavenly Tomes are the Heavenly Lord's treasures. How could we have seen them? In the past, only those who made great contributions had the chance to study them."
Li Mu asked, "What's considered a great contribution?"
Hu Jiu said, "If you can take in those wolf cubs and make them subordinates of the Thousand Fox Country, you'll definitely have the chance to study the Heavenly Tomes. Or, if you can save Phantom Princess once, the Heavenly Lord will probably let you study the Heavenly Tomes. Sixth Sister risked her life to save Phantom Princess when she was in danger. That's how she got the chance to study the Heavenly Tomes …"
Taking in the Wolf Demon Clan was expanding the territory. The Wolf Demon Clan was even stronger than the Thousand Fox Country. Li Mu didn't have the ability to take them in.
As for the hero saving the beauty, Phantom Princess herself was very powerful. It wasn't anyone's turn to save her. This was something that could only be chanced upon.
Hu Jiu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged. There are other ways. If you have the chance in the future, if you can catch Li Mu, you can also study the Heavenly Tomes. As long as you can catch him, in addition to studying the Heavenly Tomes, you can also become the Heavenly Lord's disciple. The Heavenly Lord only has one disciple now …"
Li Mu drank a mouthful of wine. He also couldn't do this.
Not to mention that he couldn't catch himself, in front of the Heaven Lord of Illusions, he might not be able to continue pretending as a Snake Demon.
Before the Heaven Lord of Illusions came out of seclusion, comprehending the Heavenly Tomes and leaving this place was the safest way. Li Mu had already experienced the strength of a Seventh Realm expert. If the Empress hadn't arrived in time last time, he would have become Phantom Princess' prisoner.
Hu Jiu asked, "Why? Do you want to study the Heavenly Tomes?"
Li Mu glanced at her and said, "Didn't you say that studying the Heavenly Tomes is good for cultivation? My cultivation is too low. I want to improve …"
Hu Jiu smiled and said, "Then you should serve Lord Phantom Princess well. Maybe one day, Lord Phantom Princess will be happy and give you the chance to study the Heavenly Tomes. Or, if you have the ability to make Lord Phantom Princess fall in love with you, you can have anything you want, let alone the Heavenly Tomes …"
At this moment, Li Mu missed Li Si very much.
If he had Li Si by his side to advise him, it might not be impossible to take down Phantom Princess in a short time. Whether it was a pure young girl or a passionate young woman, Li Si had ways to deal with them.
Phantom Princess, who had never experienced love, was the easiest to deceive.
But thinking about it, he felt that he was paying too much. It was not worth it to lose his innocence for a page of the Heavenly Tomes.
For Xiao Bai, he could temporarily put down his dignity, but there were still some bottom lines that couldn't be touched.
Hu Jiu gulped down a mouthful of wine. She put her arm around Li Mu's shoulder and said sadly, "Little snake, who do you think that damn spy is?"
