Taiyi Dao Fruit

When the Princess opened her jade-like lips and saw with her own eyes a small glimmer flying out from her mouth, expanding to the size of a regular person, her face turned crimson.

It was out of anger.

Even when she first discovered that the intruder was Jiang Li, the Princess managed to control her emotions. Though she intended to give Jiang Li a lesson, she remained rational.

Unlike now, when true flames seemed to shoot from her eyes. Her black hair was tinged with a fiery red as she roared, making the entire world seem engulfed in flames.

"Boom!"

Every inch of space was filled with erupting flames, sweeping over Jiang Li's figure, and the surging inferno instantly ignited him.

However, how cunning was Jiang Li? The moment he left the Princess's body, he had secretly used a Mysterious Skill transformation and slipped away. That figure was merely a lifelike illusion body.

As the body was ignited, "Jiang Li" was almost immediately incinerated, collapsing into a wisp of Primordial Qi, continuously being scorched by the flames.

"Sister-in-law, let Master handle the matter afterward. I won't involve myself. By the way, the Dragon Armor Divine Chapter is still temporarily held by you, to prevent leaks—"

Without finishing the sentence, that last wisp of Primordial Qi was burned away, even the air seemed exhausted, cutting the voice short.

"Jiang Li!"

The Princess had already stood up, looking at the consumed Primordial Qi, gritting her silver teeth, "Bastard!"

All along, Feng Manlou's style was seen by the Princess as shameless, a synonym for "bastard," and now Jiang Li was honored to surpass Feng Manlou, gaining the title of "the strongest bastard" in the Princess's heart.

Thinking again about Jiang Li's relationship with that woman...

"Dog couple!"

The entire palace was set ablaze, turning into a torch, the fiery light reaching the sky, and even the afternoon sun appeared dim, coloring the vast clouds red.

In another section of the Nanli Palace, Feng Manlou watched the flames and couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"Ling Guang must be furious."

Due to the presence of the Dragon Armor Divine Chapter, Feng Manlou couldn't sense it. He looked at the fiery light consciously taking the blame, "I'm in trouble this time."

Elsewhere, a little flying insect perched on a leaf, feeling the temperature rise rapidly, and couldn't help but flutter its wings.

'Such a temper, I hope the Princess doesn't expose anything letting the older brother find out.'

If it wasn't absolutely necessary, Jiang Li really didn't want to use this method to avoid Feng Manlou's search. Although he was also a Minister of Works, he didn't have Cao Sikong's unique hobbies.

Thinking of this, the insect sighed helplessly, then flapped its little wings, slowly flying out of the Nanli Palace.

To avoid Feng Manlou's detection, it's best to use less True Qi and more physical effort. So, Jiang Li planned to fly out of the Imperial City like this.

······

······

Only after two quarters did the insect fly out of the Imperial City, landing on a hand extended from the carriage window.

Jiang Li caught his avatar, allowing it to transform into Qi and merge into himself, then closed the window, saying, "It's done."

Inside the spacious carriage, Tianxuan sat regally. Upon hearing Jiang Li's words, she nodded slightly. A gentle smile appeared on her graceful and dignified face, about to speak, when Jiang Li opened the window again.

"What are you doing?" Tianxuan frowned, asking.

"Returning to Shooting Flood Dragon Platform, it's my turn to guard the Treasure Extreme Cave Heaven." Jiang Li replied plainly.

In other words, he naturally wouldn't go back to the manor with Tianxuan.

This was Master's order, after all.

After speaking, Jiang Li's figure flickered, turning into a stream of wind, rushing out of the carriage, disappearing from sight.

Tianxuan watched Jiang Li leave resolutely, was momentarily stunned, then her smile deepened, "Feigning disinterest."

She hummed softly, expressing disdain for Jiang Li's tricks. This evil disciple was trying to counteract her deliberate punishment, aiming to regain family status.

But was it that easy?

Tianxuan lowered her eyes slightly, smiling softly, calling out, "Xiao Tian."

A dog's head peeked in from outside the carriage window.

"Tell this palace everything that happened from last night till now." Tianxuan instructed.

Xiao Tian naturally complied swiftly, planning to report in the form of Divine Thought. As for the template, naturally, it would follow Jiang Li's instructions.

Though, in truth, nothing much happened between Jiang Li and the Primordial Lord Rain Master.

Because before Xiao Tian went to the Shooting Flood Dragon Platform, they had already finished talking.

However, before Xiao Tian could transmit his Divine Thought, Tianxuan suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Xiao Tian.

In her eyes, a bizarre and multicolored scene appeared. As soon as Xiao Tian made eye contact with her, the events of the previous day flashed through his memory, including Jiang Li's instructions and the encounter with Gongsun Qingyue on the road.

Clearly, Tianxuan didn't trust this three-family dog very much, even doubting its reports, choosing instead to directly read Xiao Tian's memory using the Void Illusion Realm method.

Tianxuan wasn't just sending Xiao Tian as surveillance but essentially sending a camera over.

"Woof!"

Hanging from the carriage window, Xiao Tian let out a strange sound, feeling a sense of impending doom.

It roamed freely among three people, buttering up to each, yet today it found itself in such a perilous situation. It was over.

In Xiao Tian's eyes, a chill gradually emanated from Tianxuan's body, even her gaze becoming sharp, like two sharp swords, ready to penetrate Xiao Tian's canine head.

"Such a loyal dog, I wondered how that evil disciple managed to get the upper hand repeatedly. Turns out it was countering the Heavenly Gang with a ruse."

Tianxuan laughed coldly, "And the dream from before, you actually guided Qing Yue to it."

Although she didn't read much of the memory, it was enough for Tianxuan to understand the situation.

For instance, Xiao Tian was now exceedingly loyal, and also, earlier, it had been used by Gongsun Qingyue to act as a guide.

"Speaking of which, it was this palace that captured and gave you to Jiang Li; this palace should be your second owner, correct?" Tianxuan looked at Xiao Tian, as her gaze met its, starlight transformed into chains, once again wrapping around Xiao Tian's neck.

Since Jiang Li's promotion, this chain had disappeared. But now it appeared again, tightening gradually.

Xiao Tian immediately sweated profusely, the sweat from its dog head soaking its fur.

"Woof—"

The big dog tried its best to show a fawning smile, desperately expressing a plea for mercy.

This time it truly was a dog's life-threatening situation, having exposed such important matters.

But having already offended Tianxuan, how could it end well? Didn't it know Tianxuan was notoriously small-minded?

"Rest assured, you've become Jiang Li's Daoist Soldier. As long as he lives, you won't die."

Tianxuan spoke faintly, her gaze shifting.

"Snap—"

Xiao Tian's neck tilted, tongue hanging out, slipping from the carriage window.

Watching this three-family dog's form disappear from sight, Tianxuan slowly closed the carriage window, smirking coldly, "The evil disciple said I'm anxious, but it's he who is really anxious."

Earlier, she worried Jiang might do something unfavorable, making her somewhat anxious, but now seeing Xiao Tian's memory, she was no longer worried.

In this tug-of-war over family status, whoever showed weakness first would be the loser. It was an invisible war of nerve, and Tianxuan now thought it was time to deal with the two disciples at home.

She had originally thought about sparing time to go to the Shooting Flood Dragon Platform, but now, it seemed better to deal with the disobedient disciple at home first.

Xiao Tian didn't understand what Gongsun Qingyue's words meant, but how could Tianxuan not know?

"Feint the east, attack the west, right, ha."
