Marrying a playboy? She turned the tables and used a magical talisman to become famous throughout th

"Your Majesty, please have a seat."

Yin Liuli remained indifferent and helped the Empress sit down.

"Yin Liuli!"

Cheng Yi pointed her finger at Yin Liuli's nose, gritting her teeth as she spoke.

"I order you to go and rescue them, do you hear me?!"

Yin Liuli remained indifferent. "I heard you, so what?"

Cheng Yi was furious.

"You heard me, why haven't you made a move? Do you know the consequences of disobeying my orders?!"

"Does Your Highness know that the vengeful ghost summoned by Yin Yuzhu is the king of ghosts, and it seeks to drain the vital energy of the living?"

Yin Liuli gave a cold laugh, "This humble woman dares not act rashly! If I make a mistake and it comes over to suck Your Highness's vital energy, this humble woman cannot bear the consequences."

"Since Your Highness is so worried about Yin Yuzhu, why don't you go and rescue her yourself?"

"you……"

Cheng Yi's heart skipped a beat, her face tightened again, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Aren't you very capable? I don't believe you can't subdue it!"

Yin Liuli and Yin Yuzhu are from the same lineage, blood relatives! To stand by and watch them die—your heart is far too cruel!

Yin Liuli mercilessly exposed her past.

"Eighteen years ago, His Highness stole Sun Rong's marriage and refused to give up. He secretly spread rumors to ruin her reputation and bullied her by bringing her to his face to humiliate her personally."

"How could I, your humble servant, compare to Your Highness's ruthlessness?"

"presumptuous!"

Cheng Yi slammed his hand heavily on the table, furious.

"Who do you think you are, daring to lecture me! What did Sun Rong give you to make you help her like this!"

"What could Sun Rong, a mere spirit of the underworld, possibly offer me, or what benefits could she possibly bring?"

Yin Liuli retorted sarcastically, "Are you suggesting we give away three sticks of incense that Your Highness destroyed before they even finished burning?"

Cheng Yi's face turned pale and then red, her voice trembling with anger.

"Guards...guards! Yin Liuli has disobeyed me and committed treason! Drag her away..."

"Mother, please calm down!"

Gu Jinyan quickly stepped forward and said slowly,

"Only Liuli here can deal with that Ghost King. If we capture her, and the Ghost King drains Yin Yuzhu's vital essence, won't we be next?"

Cheng Yi shuddered violently, her legs went weak, and she collapsed into the chair.

Yin Liuli gave Gu Jinyan a subtle look, "Well done!"

"Giggle giggle..."

At this moment, Yin Yuzhu made a difficult sound from her throat, and her terrified eyes rolled upwards, revealing no trace of her pupils.

Yin Yuzhu's mind went blank.

She was on her last breath, about to die.

"Liuli, this place is, after all, a sacred Buddhist site."

The Empress saw the cold arrogance in Yin Liuli's nature and gently advised her.

"Regardless, she is still a life. If we just stand by and do nothing, allowing the vengeful spirit to create bloodshed and pollute the sacred land, wouldn't Buddha be angry?"

Yin Liuli nodded and said calmly,

"Your Majesty is wise and understanding; I obey your command."

Yin Yuzhu's vital essence was almost completely drained by the Ghost King.

If it weren't for the sliver of true energy still protecting him, his three souls and seven spirits would have already left the ghost cave and entered the ghost king's belly.

Even if they were saved, they would be crippled.

Yin Liuli didn't necessarily want her dead, but she and Gu Jinyan put on a good show of "switching the beams and pillars" to achieve this effect!

Yin Yuzhu was clearly beyond saving.

Yin Liuli flipped her fingers, and a flash of inspiration appeared at her fingertips.

She walked slowly behind the Ghost King and tapped him on the head.

That's enough.

The Ghost King was greedily sucking the vital essence of the living, and the evil aura around him was like a misty fog, growing increasingly dense and terrifying.

It was struck without warning, and it immediately turned its head in fury, its blood-red eyes contorted in a ferocious and terrifying manner.

"Ugh... Who's the reckless bastard who dares to bother me!"

Yin Liuli glanced at it indifferently.

The Ghost King's aura trembled violently, and he quickly released Yin Yuzhu.

Yin Yuzhu fainted on the ground with a thud.

"My little darling!"

Upon seeing that face he dared not even dream of, the Ghost King knelt down at Yin Liuli's feet with a thud.

Just moments ago, he had a fierce and menacing look, but in an instant, he was gripped by deep fear. His eyes, which had been filled with a murderous intent, became as clear as a college student's as he hurriedly tried to explain.

"My little ancestor, my little ancestor, please understand! I didn't get out on my own; it was this little blonde girl who let me out!"

Yin Liuli gave a cold snort, "Hmm?"

"Truly! If I, a villain, were to utter a single lie, may I be struck by lightning!"

The Ghost King clasped his hands together, kneeling trembling at her feet, then suddenly pointed at Yin Yuzhu and said...

"I didn't want to absorb her vital essence, but she spoke wildly and said she would beat me to a pulp!"

My darling, have mercy! My darling, have mercy! I swear to heaven, I will never dare to do it again!

Yin Liuli frowned impatiently and handed a piece of broken jade to the Ghost King.

"Stop talking nonsense. Did you come in by yourself, or am I going to invite you in?"

"I wouldn't dare trouble you, my little master. I'll go in obediently myself!"

Seeing that Yin Liuli had no intention of dealing with it, the Ghost King felt a breath he had been holding in his throat instantly return to his stomach.

It rose shakily, and without a word, transformed into a black shadow and disappeared into the shattered jade.

Yin Liuli weighed the jade in her hand and then casually put it away.

"Liuli, why is this thing so afraid of you?"

Gu Jinyan had his third eye opened by her, and he saw everything that had just happened.

It's unbelievable. The Ghost King, who would terrify anyone with just a glance, trembles with fear the moment he sees her.

Gu Jinyan secretly curled his lip. Aren't you the Ghost King?

Where did your ferocious, menacing look, biting a living person's neck, go?

There's absolutely no hint of cunning!

Yin Liuli said casually,

"It's nothing. When I took it in, I used a little trick to punish it."

Gu Jinyan, "..."

It's easy to imagine that this seemingly small trick is anything but insignificant!

Wow, that's the wise thing to do!

If you can't beat them, join them. They stubbornly pestered Yin Liuli to become her lackey, thus avoiding being punished by her with "petty tricks"!

"Liuli, how is Ru?"

Seeing her calm and fearless demeanor, the Empress felt her anxiety subside.

Yin Liuli turned around and said calmly,

"Your Majesty, the Ghost King has been captured within the shattered jade. Please rest assured."

A look of surprise flashed across the Empress's face.

"You've already subdued them?"

Just now, Yin Yuzhu was entangled by that thing, and she was frantically making one yellow paper talisman after another, in a flurry of activity and panic.

Yin Liuli didn't do anything; she just raised her hand, and the Ghost King was subdued by her.

Although these two are sisters and both practice Taoism, their levels of Taoist skill are quite different!

"How is she?"

Looking at Yin Yuzhu, who was on the verge of death on the ground, Cheng Yi's face flashed with a hint of pity.

Yin Liuli replied calmly, "Not dead."

Compared to the arrogant Yin Liuli, Yin Yuzhu not only saved her life, but was also gentle, obedient, and very sensible.

These days, he has been by her side, taking good care of her and saying many comforting words to her.

If it weren't for the fact that Yan'er was originally betrothed to the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Yin's family, Cheng Yi would have preferred Yin Yuzhu to be his daughter-in-law.

The Empress sighed deeply.

"Liuli, you have rendered meritorious service in protecting me. Whatever reward you desire, just ask me."
