Female lead: No, it's me again??

Chapter 265 The Palace of Slaughter

Xuan Li was even more puzzled.

"I didn't mean to be angry."

"I asked her, what is the background of that Merkes Academy?"

The maid breathed a sigh of relief. "Miss, if you don't mind, let Yiyi explain it to you."

"can."

Yi Yi pulled Xiao Lian to her right and explained to Xuan Li, "Merkes Academy is a rather unique academy in Qinghe Luozhou."

"They come from Yunbi City in Qinghe Luozhou. Qinghe Luozhou Academy is ranked in the middle to upper range, and they recruit disciples by lottery."

"Whoever draws the best lottery number will be admitted to the school."

"That's it..."

Isn't that too casual?

Xuan Li's eyes darted around. "So, who are the people who came this time?"

Yi Yi shook her head, "I don't know."

Seeing that he could not get any more information, Xuan Li said, "Alright, then you guys get back to work."

She turned around and skipped upstairs.

After the person left, Yiyi tapped Xiaolian's forehead with a hint of helplessness, "How many times have I told you? Don't make any mistakes when you meet the two young ladies, why can't you learn?"

Xiao Lian lowered her head in embarrassment, then looked at Xuan Li's departing figure with some curiosity, and said,

"Sister Yiyi, is she the young lady?"

"You've already seen the portrait, haven't you? How could it be fake?"

Only the higher-ups in the Bai family know the details of Feng Siyue's identity as 'Chu Han'.

As for the auction house, it was only after Bai Qing appeared that we learned that it was the two young ladies of the Bai family.

until now.

"Alright, alright, get back to work. A lot of people are coming this month, so let's not make any mistakes."

Xiaolian composed herself.

"it is good."

A dark and secluded palace.

The man on the throne in the main hall looked at the information presented to him, played with the dragon talisman in his hand, and remained silent.

Lou Miao knelt on the ground, and upon closer inspection, her whole body was trembling.

"Lou Miao... it seems like things are going wrong all the time on your end."

Eerie sounds of a man and a woman mingling echoed through the cold, dark palace. The woman trembled violently, her voice filled with terror.

"My lord, you can't blame me this time!"

"You said that no one on the continent would know about the sacred artifact, but who could have predicted that the son of the Bai family..."

Before the woman could finish speaking, the man suddenly opened his eyes, his dark green gaze filled with danger as he looked at the person at his feet.

"Are you questioning me?"

Lou Miao hurriedly shook her head, "No... I wouldn't dare!"

"I'm also worried that something might have happened in Zhongzhou. What if the plan fails in the end?"

"My lord, please see the truth!"

Large drops of sweat fell from her forehead, but she dared not make the slightest movement.

Inside the palace, words that sounded like affirmation rang out.

"You mean, he betrayed us."

"My subordinates dare not!"

The man closed his eyes, leaning back lazily. "Lou Miao, you personally oversee Qian Shui City. If you fail... don't come back."

Lou Miao's face turned pale instantly. "My lord..."

Letting her go at this juncture is tantamount to completely abandoning her, isn't it?

The exposure of the sacred object will inevitably lead to the discovery of ghosts and demons!

How could Chaoyang Holy Palace possibly sit idly by?!

There was only one outcome for her when she met them!

"Lou Miao, now is the time for you to prove your loyalty. The son of the Bai family... is the most suitable to nourish them after their birth."

Do you understand?

Is the Lord planning to target the Bai family?

Lou Miao hesitated for a moment, "But the Bai family can't be left without anyone to protect them..."

The man toyed with the dragon talisman in his hand, his voice eerie, "Don't rush, I'll give you a treasure, which is also your last resort."

“But once you use it, all your plans in Qinghe and Luozhou will be wasted, and I dislike failure.”

It seems like a threat, but it's also an encouragement.

He stretched out his right hand, and demonic energy surged in his palm, revealing a four-sided array plate with a black design depicting the Taotie!

Lou Miao looked up, her expression a mixture of surprise and unease.

"This is......"

"Demon-Devouring Disc".

The man glanced at the object in his palm and said lazily,

"It's an old artifact from many years ago. Once activated, everyone except the holder will be suppressed within the Spirit Sect, including peak-level sacred beasts."

"At the same time, it has another special function, and you'll understand when the time comes."

Are all people being suppressed within the Spirit Sect?

Lou Miao was overjoyed in an instant, "Yes! My lord! If I still cannot accomplish your grand plan after this, I will commit suicide to atone for my sins!"

The man's lips curled slightly as he closed his eyes for a short rest.

"Go down."

My nourishment.

"Yes!"

After Lou Miao left, a second person arrived.

A scantily clad beauty swayed as she walked, leaning against the man's lap and deliberately rubbing her forehead against his neck.

"Master~"

"Why isn't the Demon-Devouring Disc, such an important treasure, entrusted to me?"

She gently breathed on the man's neck and said, sounding aggrieved, "I definitely did a better job than her~"

One hand ripped off the already loosely tied corset around her waist.

"Oops~"

"Master~ I'm cold~"

The beauty uttered a coquettish remark, but her hands instinctively wrapped around the other person's neck.

The man gently sniffed her hair. "If I weren't trapped in this Heavenly Slaughter Palace, she wouldn't have had the chance to make a move."

The man opened his eyes, his gaze darkening as he looked at the naked woman in his arms. He grasped her waist.

"Moreover, the Devouring Demon Disc is no good thing."

Whether he betrayed them or the Bai family actually found fragments of ancient books somewhere, it doesn't matter anymore.

No one could stop him from going out.

Thinking of this, a warm, damp sensation washed over his earlobe, and a woman's voice became alluring.

"Master, love me~"
