Cursed Mountains and Seas

Chapter 147 Senior Sister's Advancement! Supernatural Power Cannot Overpower Power

“Fugui, have you noticed? Actually, the names of my father’s disciples are quite interesting.”

The eldest brother is named Zhang Quan. I joined the sect earlier and ranked second. My maiden name is Ruyi. The third brother is Zheng Qian. You are the fourth brother, Wang Fugui.

"Power, money, Wang Fugui. Isn't that a coincidence?"

Shen Yueye followed Wang Cheng through the winding streets of Jinyufang, chatting as they walked, without any of the awkwardness one would feel when meeting a stranger for the first time.

"You know what, it really is a coincidence. Perhaps it's fate, and the Three Officials Emperors are blessing our lineage so that it will surely prosper."

My senior sister's given name is even more beautiful. If one's life can truly be wealthy and fulfilling, without needing to be a king or tyrant, then life can be considered complete.

Wang Cheng listened with a smile, employing the skills he had learned from Uncle Dong Piao, never letting a single word slip by.

After all, scientific research shows that looking at beautiful women every day can prolong life, and chatting with beautiful girls is a pleasant thing in itself. His tense nerves have relaxed a lot during this period.

Shen Yueye has a lively and cheerful personality. She was going crazy from being cooped up outside for several months while pretending to be someone else.

After confirming his junior brother's identity, he chattered on and on like a lark, but he felt that this junior brother, who kept talking about "dominating the world," was a bit too arrogant.

"By the way, Fugui, my father said that you only became a disciple last November. Before that, you were studying at Lianjiang Academy in Rongcheng, the capital of Minzhou. After completing your apprenticeship, you were suddenly sent to Yingzhou on official business."

She even told me to take good care of you.

How did you find a place to stay so quickly? And in a place like Jinyufang where every inch of land is precious?

"Senior sister, let me tell you, putting aside the fact that both the rituals for the Bai Shui Lang and Chao Feng Lang emphasize 'embracing all rivers,' even just for the sake of getting married in the future, you need to be thrifty and know how to manage your finances."

Wang Cheng smiled and nodded repeatedly in agreement:

"The place to stay doesn't cost any money."

"Senior sister, we've arrived!"

Shen Yueye looked up and realized that she had unknowingly followed her junior brother to a corner of the Jinghai Prince's palace, with a small door in front of her for purchasing personnel to enter and exit.

She quickly grabbed his hand and whispered:

"You're incredibly audacious! You've only just arrived in the East Sea Kingdom, do you even know where you are? How dare you wander around like this? Come with me right now!"

This junior brother seems to be shrewd at times, domineering at others, and sometimes a bit dull. I'm pulling him along to get away from here as soon as possible.

At that moment, a young monk with rosy lips and white teeth, and an excellent appearance, suddenly pushed open the door and came out.

He glanced at Shen Yueye with curiosity, said nothing, and waved for them to follow quickly.

Shen Yueye was stunned for a moment before Wang Cheng forcibly pulled her inside.

The three of them passed through the palace, which was many times more heavily guarded than before, taking advantage of pre-arranged gaps, and encountered no one to stop them.

Shen Yueye couldn't help but tiptoe around like a sneaky little fox, always wanting to escape.

They soon entered the Pear Blossom Palace, which Shen Yueye had visited once before, and took their seats in a side hall.

The young monk pointed to the tea and snacks that had been prepared on the table, then turned and left, leaving them behind.

Even though Shen Yueye possessed the Cleopatra's Golden Veil and was confident she could escape with her junior brother, she couldn't help but feel filled with doubt:

"Junior brother, what's going on? How do you know people from the Jinghai Prince's palace? And why did you get him to bring us in?"

Wang Cheng didn't answer her question. Instead, he pointed to a fat orange cat sunbathing on the stone steps in front of the door and feigned surprise:
"Look, a backflip!"

Shen Yueye turned her head and saw that he was indeed not lying.

But the surprise lasted only a moment before she pouted her rosy lips slightly, realizing that she had been tricked.

A dignified sixth-rank official like Bai Shuilang could easily make a cat perform a backflip, let alone stand up and do the Hu Xuan dance. It wouldn't be surprising at all.

I raised my hand and patted his arm:
"Hey, this cat must be expensive, right? Don't let it get damaged."

She waved her hand, startling the big, fat orange car away, then turned around and glared with her alluring, yet harmless, fox-like eyes, saying fiercely:
"Fugui, how come you're so friendly with everyone?"

If you make them angry, they might chop you up in a fit of rage!
Luckily, I know the prince here, so I'll say a few nice words to him and then we'll leave quickly.

I'm telling you, that prince of this family is in grave danger; we'd better not get arrested as assassins. Too bad he's so handsome... cough cough."

"Amazing, amazing! Senior sister, you have such a wide network of connections!"

Wang Cheng felt uneasy seeing how cute his senior sister was and couldn't bear to tease her any longer.

He pressed Shen Yueye's shoulders and pushed her back into the chair, then poured her a cup of pink perilla drink.

"Senior sister, just wait here patiently. I'll go check on the gift I prepared for you."

There's a surprise coming up later!

He winked at her, then turned and strode away.

Shen Yueye watched as her junior brother strode out of the side hall like a local master, her narrow fox-like eyes narrowing slightly, a hint of suspicion flashing in them.

The illusory fox shadow appeared on her body, and she transformed back into her original, captivating appearance.

Fox eyes, beauty mark, gold veil, peacock dance skirt, gold-embroidered shoes—she was as beautiful as a Dunhuang mural.

Sipping his perilla drink, he waited quietly for a while, but his junior brother did not return.

Just as she was about to activate [Cleopatra's Golden Veil] to find him, she suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside again.

A young man, led by a young monk, entered the adjacent palace and respectfully greeted the monk:
"I am Liu Yuankai, and I pay my respects to Your Highness. This small gift is of little value."

Upon hearing this voice, Shen Yueye abruptly stood up from her chair.

"It's him!"

Although she was using a pseudonym, she recognized the owner of the voice instantly. It was clearly her mission target—the oath-breaker Liu Jianzhen!

The hardships, grievances, and frustrations of the past few months surged into his heart, and a fiery red flame suddenly appeared in his emerald fox eyes.

But it was immediately replaced by another question.

"Why did he suddenly come to the palace? Could it be that he switched allegiance from Peng Laosheng to this prince? If I kill him, will the prince stop me?"

She was puzzled, but Liu Jianzhen was actually even more puzzled than she was.

Just now, Peng Laosheng suddenly told him that the Prince of Jinghai wanted to see him and asked him to go to the palace immediately.

The Liu family wielded considerable influence in Dazhao, but a mere daimyo in Yingzhou could easily control them, let alone the Prince of Jinghai, who nominally ruled over most of the nine islands.

He had to come, whether he wanted to or not.

Wang Cheng, sitting in the main seat opposite him, was very polite to him.

"Manager Liu, I've invited you here today to ask if you could do me a favor?" Liu Jianzhen was overjoyed to hear this.

The steward said that my grandfather and father were plotting something big in the East China Sea, trying to sabotage the imperial court's initial plan to open the seas, but I was not qualified to know the inside story.

If we can get in touch with the Crown Prince, how can we not achieve great things?

"It's good that you have needs. With needs, I can quickly infiltrate the upper echelons of Wufeng Banner and then slowly destroy you all!"

He readily agreed.

"Your Highness, please give your orders. I have some wealth and manpower, and I will go through fire and water for you."

Wang Cheng clapped his hands in satisfaction.

"That's wonderful. We don't need your wealth or manpower, just you will suffice."

He called out to the neighbor next door:
"Sister Fox, did you hear that? Manager Liu has agreed."

Liu Jianzhen wondered:
Who is he talking to? Who wants to see me?

Suddenly, he smelled a strange fragrance, and felt his whole body go numb. He collapsed to the ground with a thud.

A graceful figure flashed before him, the gleaming gold medallion of "Straight Age" at her waist piercing his eyes.

"You're that Zhi Sui Tang official who's been chasing me for months?! What are you doing here?"

Upon seeing this figure that was etched into his memory, he was instantly terrified.

Shen Yueye didn't bother to look at the target she had been chasing for months; after all, the fish on the chopping block was no longer a threat.

His eyes were only on the incomparably handsome prince, who also had a hateful smile on his face.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, noticing something in him that was both different from the last time and strangely familiar.

The same address I heard that day still echoed in my ears:

"Pretty fox sister, see? I told you, if you're in trouble, just come to me, you won't regret it, right?"

He then turned his head and instructed the young monk standing beside him:

"Bald monk, go find a few maids to clean up the Qiluan Pavilion next to my bedchamber. Let Sister Fox stay at the palace tonight; I want to drink and have fun with her."

The young monk nodded in agreement:
"Yes, Your Majesty."

Looking at Wang Cheng's face, which made one blush and their heart race, Shen Yueye took light steps to stand in front of him and suddenly gave him a charming smile:
"Okay. My junior brother who came with me will also stay here tonight, right?"

However, there's no need to go through the trouble of preparing an extra place; I can just stay in the Crown Prince's bedroom.

"This place seems quite spacious; it could easily accommodate three people, let alone two."

"what?"

Wang Cheng only meant to make a joke, but he didn't expect this fox-like senior sister to go so far.

What's most infuriating is that, looking into his senior sister's alluring fox-like eyes, he felt an overwhelming sense of anticipation for the suggestion, and his bones seemed to lighten.

In an instant, he finally experienced firsthand what it meant to be a vixen who brought ruin to the country and its people. Even knowing she was a "vixen," he simply couldn't resist her charm.

Question King Zhou, understand King Zhou, become King Zhou, and surpass King Zhou!
【Heart Moon Fox】Shen Yueye definitely has the potential in this area.

Which man could withstand such a test?

As for whether his master will break his dog legs? That's a matter for later.

Anyway, it was my senior sister who made the first move.

But he wasn't exactly a seasoned player in the game of love, and he hesitated for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"Aren't we moving a little too fast? Shouldn't you ask your elders for their opinions first?"

But at that moment, Shen Yueye, with lightning speed, reached out and grabbed his ear tightly.

"Wang Fugui!!! Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by your master?!"

"Too fast? Ask the elders? How about I have a couple of kids for you, giving my dad two grand-disciples?"

"You actually conspired with that old man to trick your own senior sister?!"

Ever since I received the news, I've been worried sick about you!

While I was hiding my identity and could only eat salted fish and rice balls with them, you were having a great time in this palace.

I knew something was wrong. Why were you so nice to the assassin you were meeting for the first time?
And that day, the Thunderbolt you used to kill the traitor looked familiar. Actually, it was originally the old man's inventory, right?
"You dare to toy with your senior sister's feelings, Wang Fugui, you deserve to die a hundred times over!"

Although the bald donkey next to him was a donkey spirit, he was not a brute, but the first novice monk of Zhaojue Temple, who had captivated countless female pilgrims.

Instead of helping, he nodded approvingly at Wang Cheng.

To win a woman's heart, you must first make her remember you deeply. The more intense the emotional fluctuations, the better. The young master is a natural at this, clearly a Casanova just like me.

I've always been all about physical attraction, not emotional connection, but perhaps the young master can cultivate both, surpassing his teacher!

"Keep it up! When Buddha puts some donkey-hide gelatin in your food one day, I guarantee it will all fall into place."

Amitabha, well done, well done. "

He silently offered a word of encouragement, then went outside to disperse the guards near the Pear Blossom Palace, telling them not to get in the way.

Only Wang Cheng, Shen Yueye, and the defeated Liu Jianzhen remained.

After being bombarded for a while, Wang Cheng, his ears red, grabbed Shen Yueye's slightly cool hand and begged for mercy:
"Senior sister, senior sister, I was wrong. Let's take care of business first and secure the money."

Shen Yueye thought what he said made sense.

She released his ear, and with a flick of her slender hand, a gold-inlaid jade ruyi appeared in her palm.

Recite the mantra:

"May everything go as I wish, as I desire, change as I please!"

The Ruyi lost its physical form and transformed into a beautiful ivory-handled, gilded musket.

However, it is one of the four secret and orthodox methods in "The Record of Listening to Treasures in the Toad Palace" [Seven Treasures Wish-Fulfilling Mantra], and the sleeve sword and fire gun are two of the seven treasures she has forged.

"A person without integrity is worthless. If all living beings hand me the knife, I will take the punishment myself!"
You betrayed us and murdered our business partner. My punishment for you is—annihilation!

He aimed at Liu Jianzhen's head and pulled the trigger.

boom!
With a gunshot, the oath-breaker fell to the ground, and the pass that had been holding Shen Yueye back for so long shattered.
