Lady Night Emperor hadn't expected Su Qingfeng to guess her identity, and she suspected he had ulterior motives, perhaps even possessing her portrait. Suppressing the urge to attack, she asked:

"Oh? How did you guess I'm the Night Emperor's wife?"

Su Qingfeng sensed the murderous intent in the Night Emperor's wife, but calmly picked up his tea and took a sip. He wasn't afraid of her making a move now—this Night Emperor's wife was quite arrogant, probably thinking he was already a fish on a chopping board, unaware that if Su Qingfeng really wanted to leave, she couldn't stop him.

"It's an intuition. I have many enemies, but none of them have a Celestial Realm expert backing them. But Chu Liuxiang is different. His master is the Night Emperor, and you, the Night Emperor's wife, are also a Celestial Realm immortal. The one who would impersonate my wife to approach me must be you."

"However, I'm a little curious. Since you are at the Celestial Realm, if you wanted to kill me, you could have simply barged in. Why would you impersonate me? Could you tell me why?"

Lady Ye nodded slightly at Su Qingfeng's speculation, but when she heard him mention "impersonating Lady Ye," her face flushed. This was the most shameful thing that had ever happened to her, and she felt extremely regretful.

"Pah! Who's impersonating your wife? That's just your daughter's wild guess; I've never admitted to it!"

"Really?"

"What do you mean? With my abilities, do I need to impersonate your wife?"

"need."

boom!

"Su Qingfeng, do you want to die?"

Lady Night Emperor felt that Su Qingfeng was simply mocking her, but she couldn't produce any evidence.

Su Qingfeng suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and the surrounding tables and chairs were shattered into pieces by the force unleashed by the Night Emperor's wife.

Seeing her anger, Su Qingfeng quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it to her with a smile:

"Madam, please calm down. Getting angry ages you quickly."

Lady Night Emperor was taken aback. She clearly intended to kill him, yet this man was not only unafraid but also smilingly pouring tea? She couldn't understand it for a moment.

"Lord Wu Xiang, what exactly do you mean?"

Su Qingfeng was also helpless. Right now, he could only say some nice things. If he could coax the Night Emperor's wife to deal with that alien expert, that would be even better.

"With such beauty, Madam must be kind-hearted as well. I don't believe she would kill someone as kind as me."

"You think you're kind? You're kidding me!"

Lady Night looked at Su Qingfeng, utterly at a loss for words. How could a nobleman commanding hundreds of thousands of troops have the audacity to call himself kind?

Can kindness really cause trouble in the Song Dynasty?

Does kindness grant one the ability to command hundreds of thousands of soldiers and wage war across the Sui Dynasty?

Is it possible to win over almost all the girls on the martial arts ranking list with kindness?

Looking at Su Qingfeng's demeanor, Lady Night Emperor really wanted to kill this shameless man on the spot. She had seen all sorts of people, but she had never seen anyone so thick-skinned. This man's skin was thicker than a city wall, and Lady Night Emperor didn't want to say another word to him.

"Ahem, Madam..."

"Shut up, don't call me Madam. Call me Madam Shui Rou."

The Night Emperor's wife felt extremely uncomfortable upon hearing him address her as "Madam." The way he used "Madam" sounded completely different from how others addressed her; it was as if he were implying that she was his woman. The Night Emperor's wife felt that this lecherous man was verbally abusing her.

I'm so...

Why is the Empress acting so strangely this night? What's the difference between calling her Madam Shuirou and just calling her Madam?

So the Night Emperor's wife is named Shui Rou? Su Qingfeng really didn't know that. It's a nice name, but it doesn't quite suit her.

On the other side, Pang Ban was taken aback by Yan Jing'an's direct rejection and said after a moment of surprise, "Miss, I sincerely want to be friends with you and get to know you."

Oh my god... Could this alien be interested in me?

Yan Jing'an looked at Pang Ban and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

She's already in her fifties or sixties, how could she be targeted by a foreigner? Although she still looks young and beautiful, she doesn't want to be coveted by a foreigner at all.

Yan Jing'an was both angry and annoyed. She would rather be favored by that scoundrel Su Qingfeng than be entangled with this silly foreigner.

Lady Night Emperor noticed that Su Qingfeng seemed lost in thought, and then she noticed that the alien Celestial Realm expert had blocked the woman beside Su Qingfeng. She immediately felt that there was going to be a good show.

With a hint of amusement, she reminded Su Qingfeng:

"Lord Wu Xiang, it seems your young lady is being held back. Aren't you going to rescue her?"

"Um?"

Su Qingfeng turned around and saw that Yan Jing'an had indeed been stopped by that alien Celestial Realm Land Immortal. He immediately got up and walked towards Yan Jing'an—Yan Jing'an couldn't be allowed to get into trouble here.

Although he disapproved of some of Yan Jing'an's actions in the original work, this was a world of martial arts, and Yan Jing'an had not yet done those heartless things, nor had he given his disciple Jin Bingyun to Pang Ban.

Su Qingfeng walked to Yan Jing'an's side, pretending not to know that the other party was a Celestial Realm expert, and asked:

"Yan Jing'an, what's going on?"

Yan Jing'an hadn't expected Su Qingfeng to come to her rescue, and her impression of him improved slightly. However, the alien in front of her was clearly stronger than her, and Su Qingfeng's appearance at this moment was too dangerous; she didn't want a conflict to break out between them.

"It's nothing. This person from another race wanted to get to know me, but I've already declined."

Su Qingfeng looked at the expert at the Celestial Realm and asked with a smile, "May I ask how you are addressed?"

Upon seeing Wu Xiangjun appear, Pang Ban immediately wanted to kill her, but Yan Jing'an was present, and he did not want her to see his violent side—from the moment he first met Yan Jing'an, he was inexplicably attracted to her, a feeling he had never experienced before.

"Pang Ban"

Is this middle-aged alien Pang Ban? The demonic master Pang Ban who cultivates the Dao Heart Demon Seed Technique?

Su Qingfeng's heart tightened. Pang Ban was cold-blooded, extremely shrewd, and unpredictable. At this moment, he couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Previously, Yan Jing'an mentioned that Cihang Jingzhai had invited Pang Ban of the Great Yuan Dynasty, but unexpectedly, they met here. Pang Ban's trip must have been ill-intentioned, and he might even attack me, so why hasn't he made a move yet?

Su Qingfeng glanced at Pang Ban, then at Yan Jing'an, and suddenly realized: Pang Ban had indeed fallen for Yan Jing'an, just as in the original story. But he was the Grand Preceptor of the Yuan Dynasty; he could have any woman he wanted. How could he fall in love with this nun at first sight?

Yan Jing'an felt dizzy upon hearing Pang Ban's name, realizing she was doomed. Pang Ban was an accomplice invited by Cihang Jingzhai; if he returned and told Jingzhai that she had helped Su Qingfeng, she would likely be punished by her sect immediately.

She hurriedly approached Su Qingfeng, her heart pounding with anxiety, fearing that Pang Ban might suddenly attack her and Su Qingfeng. Only then did she understand why Su Qingfeng had urged her to leave earlier; she had misunderstood him.

"Ahem, Yan Jing'an, don't be nervous, and don't get so close to me."

Su Qingfeng was quite helpless—as soon as Yan Jing'an approached, Pang Ban's face darkened.

He felt that Pang Ban must have misunderstood his relationship with Yan Jing'an, and he dared not offend this terrestrial immortal of the Celestial Realm at the moment.

Seeing that Yan Jing'an was still standing close to him, Su Qingfeng had no choice but to ignore her. Since Pang Ban was an enemy and not a friend, he knew that a battle was inevitable, so he stopped paying attention to Yan Jing'an.

Su Qingfeng looked at the Night Emperor's wife, then smiled and spoke to Pang Ban:

"Pang Ban, as the Grand Preceptor of the Yuan Dynasty, what brings you to the Sui Dynasty?"

"Lord Wu Xiang, are you interrogating me?" Pang Ban asked coldly, suppressing his anger as he stared at Su Qingfeng without changing his expression.

Seeing that he seemed about to lash out, Su Qingfeng coughed lightly:

"That's not what I meant. I'm just curious, did Princess Zhao Min know about the Imperial Preceptor's trip to the Sui Dynasty?"

"Lord Wu Xiang, I am aware of your relationship with Zhao Min. But why should I, the Imperial Advisor, report my whereabouts to the Princess?"

"Oh? So that means Zhao Min was unaware of it. I guess the Grand Preceptor came for the Yang Gong Treasure Vault—in that case, the Grand Preceptor is quite interested in this vault, and perhaps he didn't even report his arrival to the Great Yuan Emperor?"

"Lord Wu Xiang, there's no need for such useless beating around the bush. The emperor never inquires about where I go or what I do. Your threats are completely ineffective against me."

"Is that so? Pang Ban, you must have come here at the invitation of Cihang Jingzhai or Jingnian Chan Temple. You should know that both of these factions are my enemies, and you should not have set foot in the Great Sui. Now that you are here, I'm afraid... it will be difficult for you to leave."

Yan Jing'an, listening from the side, was horrified and wished she could strangle Su Qingfeng. She had followed closely because she was afraid he would speak recklessly, but who knew that he would still dare to threaten her even though he knew Pang Ban was a demon master—this man was simply insane, and she was afraid he would drag her down with him.

Pang Ban was taken aback that Wu Xiangjun dared to threaten him. As a terrestrial immortal of the Celestial Realm, he was completely outmatched by these guards who were merely at the Innate Realm. What ability did Wu Xiangjun have to keep him here? Was he just an arrogant nobleman who didn't know his place?

Pang Ban had no more words to say. He could forcibly take Yan Jing'an away later, but Wu Xiangjun—he had to be killed today.

He burst into laughter:

"Hahaha, Lord Wu Xiang, you are indeed clever. But if I really wanted to kill you, could your men stop me?"

Su Qingfeng raised his hand to signal to the Night Emperor's wife, and calmly said:

"Pang Ban, you're not the only Celestial Realm expert here. Are you sure you can take my life under the protection of another terrestrial deity?"

Su Qingfeng smiled as she looked at Pang Ban, hoping that he would despise or even offend the Night Emperor's wife, so that she could use her to eliminate this enemy.

"Hmph, that woman is indeed at the Celestial Realm, but she is no match for me. I have never failed to kill the person I set my sights on."

Pang Ban didn't even look at the Night Emperor's wife.

He knew that the woman was a terrestrial immortal of the Celestial Realm, but so what?

Even if she were a Celestial Realm expert, Pang Ban wouldn't care. His Dao Heart Demon Seed technique was specifically designed to counter women. If she recklessly came to fight, Pang Ban wouldn't mind capturing her and planting the demon seed—controlling a beautiful Celestial Realm terrestrial immortal was a thought that somewhat tempted him.

Yan Jing'an was stunned again.

The woman who had just spoken with Su Qingfeng was also a Celestial Realm terrestrial immortal? This was completely unexpected. However, Su Qingfeng seemed to have had an unpleasant conversation with that woman. Would she help Su Qingfeng deal with Pang Ban?

Seeing that Pang Ban didn't care about the Night Emperor's wife, Su Qingfeng continued to entice him:

"Pang Ban, you don't think you can do whatever you want just because you plant the Demon Seed in your Dao Heart, do you? Lady Shui Rou is a powerful expert at the Celestial Realm. Your tricks won't work on her."

"Whether it works or not, we'll only know after we try," Pang Ban said coldly. "Lord Wu Xiang, will you commit suicide, or shall I send you on your way?"

Su Qingfeng was on high alert. Pang Ban was a terrestrial immortal of the Celestial Realm; the slightest mistake could cost him his life.

He suddenly pulled Yan Jing'an into his arms—he wanted to completely enrage Pang Ban, make him lose his mind and have no time to think, so that he could also drag the Night Emperor's wife into the mess.

"What are you doing?!"

Yan Jing'an was suddenly embraced, and her heart raced with panic. This bastard, instead of dealing properly with Pang Ban, was taking liberties with her at this moment, which shocked and angered her.

Pang Ban's face turned ashen when he saw Su Qingfeng hugging Yan Jing'an.

He never expected that Lady Wu Xiang would dare to touch the woman he had his eye on.
