Inside the Nan'an Palace
Concubine Chen drove out all the palace maids and eunuchs, and sat alone in front of the dressing mirror combing her hair.

As she was combing her hair, she suddenly threw the comb to the ground in anger.

"Why are you so angry?" Yin Snake's casual voice came.

“I’m not angry, I’m annoyed.

The people from the Nan family failed. For some reason, the people from the Wanfa Sect intervened in this matter and seemed to have known our plan in advance.

Now the Lord Emperor is furious and is investigating the reason for the leak of the information.

We were also ordered not to fail, or we would both die if we failed."

Concubine Chen couldn't be happy now as long as she thought that her life might be in danger at any time.

Who could have thought that a small Nan family could actually defeat the Gui clan.

"Although those guys failed, at least they helped us eliminate a wrong answer."

There was no emotional change in Yin Snake's voice, as if the threat of death was nothing to him.

In other words, he has enough confidence in himself and knows that he will not fail.

“This is all I can think of now, but I never thought that the Nan family would put things in the secular world.

Although we failed to destroy the Nan family, at least we have determined where the thing is."

This is the only good news.

Jiang Li was unaware of what was happening in the palace.

After completing the mission from the Nan family, she still wandered around on various primary tasks every day.

In a short period of time, she had become famous in the city, and people even came to her for help.

Jiang Li would help whenever she could, and would teach those who tried to take advantage of the situation an unforgettable lesson.

Gradually, those who had other purposes dared not come.

Only those who really need help will come to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li's reputation among the people grew day by day, and some people even proposed to build a temple for her, but she sternly refused.

She is not a Buddhist, so why should she build a temple?

Besides, even among Buddhists, not everyone is qualified to build a temple.

If one's understanding of Buddhism is not deep and one's merits and virtues are not sufficient, building monuments and temples will not only be unhelpful to one's practice, but may be harmful.

As a Taoist practitioner, Jiang Li finds things like incense and offerings from the mortal world to be of no use to her.

She didn't take the path of becoming a god through incense and worship.

After two busy months, she had done almost all the good things that could be done.

She was too lazy to go out, so she had been staying in the Imperial Master's Mansion recently, and went to the training room to practice various spells whenever she had free time.

During this period, although she was completing tasks every day, she did not neglect her cultivation.

She had to go into the training room once a day to practice spells a hundred times as part of her long-term mission, and she never stopped.

Although her cultivation level seems to have not changed much, her compatibility with the Thunder God's Staff has improved a lot, and she has become more and more adept at using it.

This training room is indeed convenient. She doesn't even need to take out the Thunder God's Staff. She can just enter the training room with her consciousness and practice using the Thunder God's Staff.

There is no need to worry about being discovered.

[System, why do I always feel like I can't breathe recently? Is there something wrong with my body? ]

Jiang Li gently stroked the chest.

This breathlessness feeling has been getting worse recently. Could it be that she has been poisoned and she doesn't even know it?
[Ding! According to the system's judgment, the host has no problems and is still very healthy.]

[Really? Since there is nothing wrong with my body, is this some kind of ominous premonition? ]

【The system cannot determine. 】

[Okay, you can leave now.]

Jiang Li lay on the bed with her arms on her forehead, frowning slightly.

She had clearly made sufficient preparations. If this was really a bad premonition, could it be that she was not prepared enough? But this shouldn't be the case!

Jiang Li rolled over on the bed out of boredom and then collapsed on the bed without moving.

Suddenly, she sat up abruptly. "Did I overlook something?"

"Knock knock--" At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Jiang Li walked to the door and opened it.

The person standing outside the door was Hu Jie.

"A suspicious male cultivator has entered the city. Go check it out now." Hu Jie spoke immediately upon seeing Jiang Li, without saying a word.

"Suspicious male cultivator? How suspicious is he?" Jiang Li asked.

"You'll know how suspicious it is if you go and take a look. Go now, don't be idle all day long."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Jiang Li gave him a middle finger from behind.

"Tsk, you've been using chicken feathers as a token of authority all day long. I tolerate you and don't bother with you, but you really think I'm easy to bully.

You are the one who stays in your room all day doing nothing, and yet you still care about what I am doing, you little bastard."

After cursing under his breath, Jiang Li closed the door and walked out.

When she reached the door, she saw disciples from the Imperial Master's Mansion waiting for her at the door.

"Where is that suspicious male cultivator that Senior Brother Hu mentioned now?"

"At the east gate of the city." The disciple answered respectfully.

"Why don't you just bring the person back?" Jiang Li asked with a frown.

"That person's cultivation is at least at the Golden Core stage. We can't defeat him." The disciple said aggrievedly.

"Okay, I'll go take a look. You don't have to follow me." After saying that, he went out.

Only after watching Jiang Li pass by did the disciple breathe a sigh of relief.

"Let's leave that weird guy to Uncle Jiang. I hope Uncle Jiang can catch him. That guy is really weird."

The disciple shook his head and gritted his teeth. It was unknown what he was thinking about, and he looked a little crazy.

Jiang Li left the City Lord's Mansion and walked towards the east city gate.

There are two city gates in Annan City, one is the East Gate and the other is the West Gate.

When Jiang Li arrived at the East Gate, he found that the gate, which was always bustling with people, was now completely silent.

All shops were closed and all pedestrians locked themselves in their homes.

Even without using her spiritual sense, she could feel that many people were peeking at the situation outside through the cracks in the door.

"What happened?" Jiang Li looked around and didn't see even a soldier guarding the city gate.

She continued to move forward, and finally, she saw a blood-stained figure at the gate of the city.

This figure looks slightly familiar.

"Meng Jue!" Why is this guy here, covered in blood!

Jiang Li was shocked, very shocked.

Meng Jue was even more surprised to see Jiang Li than she was.

"Senior Sister? Why are you here?" Those black eyes were full of confusion.

"That's what I wanted to ask you. Didn't you follow Zhang Ruonan to the Nan family? Why did you come to the secular world?"

The Nan family is not very close to the Nan'an City in the secular world. How did he get here?
"I don't know either." Meng Jue's expression was extremely innocent.

Jiang Li: Haha, I guess you got lost here again.

His ability to get lost is amazing. How on earth did he manage to get lost in such a far place? (End of this chapter)
