Chapter 300 Li Xian'er

"It is easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature. Even if one takes human form and wears a human skin, the essence of a demon is still that of a demon."

Ning Fusang said, "I saw it secretly bite the chicken's neck and drink its blood."

Humans would not behave in such an unusual way.

But precisely because of this, Ning Fusang guessed that its self-awareness might be about to awaken, and it would be best to kick it out of the game as soon as possible.

Bai Ni nodded, "Okay, I understand."

After explaining everything, Bai Ni left.

The dark-faced old woman watched her retreating figure, her eyes flashing with a sinister light, thinking disdainfully, "That Ugly Sunflower is getting bolder and bolder, even seducing a maid from Warm Flower Pavilion..."

She suddenly paused, a thought suddenly dawning on her: "If I were to expose the scandalous affair between Chou Kui and this maid, wouldn't it be satisfying if the master, in a fit of rage, had Chou Kui beaten to death?"

"However, I certainly won't be able to meet such an important figure as the Prefect, and Miss Xian'er is kind-hearted, so she won't punish Chou Kui severely..."

After much deliberation, the black-faced woman's plan was ultimately thwarted.

Ning Fusang noticed the dark-faced woman's absent-mindedness, as if she were plotting something, and couldn't help but snort coldly.

The dark-faced old woman avoided her gaze, took out her embroidered handkerchief, and casually wiped her face.

Ning Fusang didn't have time to deal with the old woman right now. After returning to his room, he began to constantly deduce the dream.

Although both she and Bai Ni believed that Miss Li Xian'er of Luhua Pavilion was the master of dreams, this was just speculation. If they were wrong, they would be wasting their time and effort on her.

Only with the calculated results would Ning Fusang and Bai Ni feel at ease.

Huangque County.

Zhang Huan summoned all the generals and strategists to his study for a meeting.

“Grand Preceptor, you have just arrived in Huangque County and must be tired from your journey. Why don’t you rest for a while, so I can host a welcome dinner for you? There’s no need to rush the attack on Xuandu County,” the county magistrate said.

“Yes, Grand Preceptor, Xuandu County is a large county, comparable to three Huangque Counties. Shouldn’t we reconsider our actions to avoid unnecessary casualties…” The county magistrate’s advisor said worriedly.

Zhang Huan scoffed, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes. "An illusionary thing, once it's dead, it's dead. What's there to regret?"

What he wanted was to destroy the An Kingdom as quickly as possible, support the ruler of the Siluo Kingdom, and unify the territory. As for how blood flowed like rivers and the land was devastated in the illusion, Zhang Huan didn't care.

His subordinates came out and rebuked the magistrate of Huangque County: "How the Imperial Preceptor conducts his duties is none of your business! You all just need to follow orders and not hold him back!"

This person was a demon lord of the demon race. He saw the notice from the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion and went to meet Zhang Huan.

The demon race looks down on the human race, while the human race despises the demon race. This demon lord is so convinced of Zhang Huan's abilities and obeys his orders. Besides the orders of King Gai Yinling, it is also because Zhang Huan is indeed capable.

The magistrate of Huangque County nodded obsequiously, saying, "This humble official will certainly obey your orders."

Zhang Huan gave a faint "hmm" and made the arrangements.

The meeting did not end until dawn.

The Demon Lord, having exhausted his options, stood a step behind Zhang Huan and asked, "Strategist, you've posted the notice for so long, yet few demons from my clan have come looking for you. Could they not be in the Kingdom of Siluo, or perhaps they haven't awakened yet?"

"And those two women you asked me to find, I did not see them in the country of Silo."

Zhang Huan looked up at the horizon, at the stars that were about to disappear, and said indifferently, "It doesn't matter anymore."

He held a high position, enjoyed the deep trust of the Queen of Siluo Kingdom, and possessed military power. Unless the other party entered the ant illusion and became a cultivator with the power to move mountains and seas and the ability to conjure soldiers from beans, no one could possibly oppose him or ruin his plans. However, Zhang Huan knew very well that those in the ant illusion were all ordinary people.

Even the Grand Preceptor of the Kingdom of Siluo only knew a little bit of the art of observing qi, and could see good and bad fortune.

They lost so many demons just to obtain some superficial information from the termite illusion. Based on their information and descriptions, Zhang Huan took some defensive measures, which is why he woke up so early. As for the two women, they are probably still lost in their dream and unaware of their true selves.

Ning Fusang and Bai Ni, who were far away in Xuandu County, were naturally unaware of what was happening in Huangque County.

Time flies in dreams; Ning Fusang felt that it was dawn before long.

With Qian Yuan's help, Bai Ni replaced Qing Zhi and became Li Xian'er's personal maid. When she accidentally saw the white scales on Li Xian'er's neck, she finally understood why this noble lady never saw outsiders.

She is a half-demon.

"Am I ugly like this?" Li Xian'er said sadly.

Bai Ni shook her head.

"You don't need to comfort me. I've known since I was a child that I'm different from other people."

“Miss Xian’er, Shu Yan didn’t comfort you,” Bai Ni said.

She herself is a demon, how could she be afraid of a half-demon?
Moreover, to be honest, Li Xian'er's face is not ugly at all; on the contrary, it is quite beautiful.

Anyway, she thinks she's prettier than Yao Ling.

Li Xian'er's white scales are only on her neck, which can be covered by her clothes. However, the Dragon Transformation Pool water scars on her and Yao Ling's bodies are on their faces. If this Miss Xian'er saw them, she might faint from fright.

However, neither she nor Yaoling were people who cared much about appearances. Apart from the wounds from the Dragon Transformation Pool water that would expose their identities, there were no other inconveniences.

After Qingzhi's death, Bai Ni gradually gained Li Xian'er's trust.

Through her enticement and matchmaking, coupled with Qian Yuan's secret assistance, Ning Fusang had the opportunity to take Li Xian'er out of the mansion to see the outside world.

Li Xian'er was always happy, and her smile became more frequent, but Ning Fusang was not very happy.

Because she took Li Xian'er out of the mansion, the dream did not change.

Is it because this dream is too stable?

Ning Fusang was lost in thought when Li Xian'er called out to her, "Chou Kui, I want to go to Qingning Mountain, is that alright?"

Qingning Mountain is outside the city, and it was already quite late. Ning Fusang had originally intended to refuse, but in the end, she agreed.

What if the changes in the dream happen in Qingning Mountain?

There should be cuckoos on Qingning Mountain, right?

The two left the city, and night fell. The mountain road was not easy to travel. The young lady, who had never left Luhua Pavilion before, became bolder and bolder in her recent sneaking out.

Ning Fusang picked up a wooden stick to make a walking stick for Li Xian'er. Suddenly, her vision went black for a moment, and in her mind, she heard Bai Ni's voice: "Li Xian'er is not the master of dreams."

The brief dream left Ning Fusang in a daze. She looked at Li Xian'er with complex emotions in her eyes, making Li Xian'er feel unfamiliar with her.

However, Ning Fusang quickly composed herself, lowered her eyelids, and said, "Miss Xian'er, let's go back to the mansion first thing tomorrow morning."

Since Bai Ni deduced that Li Xian'er was not the master of the dream, she was most likely right.

Who exactly is the master of the dream world in the termite illusion?

Li Xian'er didn't know why Chou Kui had suddenly become cold and distant towards her. She said softly, "Okay."
