The improved female villains regained their memories.

boom!

Another heavy impact.

Xu Anyin grabbed Ling Yan'er's hair, as if he were seeing his younger self.

That cowardly version of myself.

"I've surpassed myself!!!"

She roared and slammed Ling Yan'er's head against the ground again, red spiritual energy even spreading from her hands.

"Stop, Xiao Yin."

A hand grabbed her arm.

Yang Pingsheng stood to the side, his face indifferent, and said:

"You've gone too far."

Chapter Eighty: The Way is One Foot Higher

"Oh, the Grand Tutor has arrived."

Xu Anyin calmed down immediately, let go of her hand, and stood up as if he hadn't done anything.

She knew Yang Pingsheng was coming, and she had anticipated his arrival. She had given instructions beforehand, so the Twelve Zodiacs did not stop him and allowed him to approach.

Ling Yan'er is going to die, of course, but not now. Both Ling Yan'er and Yang Pingsheng bear the mark of the Wenxian Sect. Once these two die, their life tablets will shatter, and the Wenxian Sect will realize something is wrong and immediately intervene.

Xu Anlu hasn't lost her mind yet. Torture is torture, but she definitely can't kill him. It's better to do a test to see what the old man is up to.

Seeing Yang Pingsheng holding his hand, Xu Anyin smiled and asked, "Is the Grand Tutor here to plead for this woman?"

Yang Pingsheng shook his head: "I've said that many times already. I won't stop you from taking revenge. I just want you to learn the way of the king."

"The way of the king, ah..."

Xu Anyin shook off Yang Pingsheng's hand, took a few steps back, and kicked Ling Yan'er at his feet.

The other person is unconscious and has passed out.

She looked up at Yang Pingsheng again, a half-smile on her face: "What does the Grand Tutor want?"

"Don't kill Ling Yan'er. You can't kill her now."

"I understand. In the end, the Grand Tutor still wants to plead for her."

She smiled and opened her arms: "Alright, Grand Tutor, I owe you a life, and now I'm returning it to you."

Yang Pingsheng looked down at the girl's face.

She's different now than before. No, or rather, this is her true self.

"Xiao Yin".

He lowered his eyes: "One day, you will understand what I mean."

"To achieve extraordinary feats, one must use extraordinary means. This is what you said, Grand Tutor."

Yes, that's what he said, but it's what he's going to tell Xiaohua and Xiaozhu, not Xu Anyin.

"Xiao Yin".

He shouted, and the cold wind mixed with rain blew by, making him seem even older.

Xu Anyin watched, feeling inexplicably irritated. He stopped looking at Yang Pingsheng and walked away.

"Grand Tutor, you're getting old, you should go back and rest."

With a wave of her hand, her red hair fluttered in the wind, exuding an aura of dominance.

"They've withdrawn."

Their figures disappeared completely. Xiao Hua glanced at Yang Pingsheng, a slight fluctuation in her eyes, but she still retreated with the main force.

At the empty palace gate, only Yang Pingsheng and the unconscious Ling Yan'er remained.

The system said, "Let's go."

Xu Anyin's revenge has only just begun.

Thunder's methods were carried out quietly in the darkness.

A month later, everyone was shocked to realize that the entire court had been brought under Xu Anyin's control.

Even Yang Pingsheng's forces were dismantled, with only a few remnants hiding away. Yang Pingsheng himself was placed under house arrest in the palace, and Xu Anyin specially assigned one of the twelve zodiac animals to watch over him.

That person was none other than his student, Xiaohua.

Xiao Hua had changed; she was no longer stiff, but had become indifferent. Yang Pingsheng's tentative inquiries only yielded distant replies.

Xiao Hua also took over his daily life. Xu Anyin did not arrange any servants for him, for fear that he would send someone to inform others.

Time passed, and Yang Pingsheng was imprisoned alone in the palace, with no one to rely on.

Fortunately, he still had the system.

The courtyard was bathed in sunshine and filled with fresh air.

The leaves are densely packed, and flowers bloom in mid-air, exceptionally beautiful. When the wind blows, the bushes creak, and small red flowers are interspersed among them, creating a striking combination of red and green.

Yang Pingsheng lay on the rocking chair, feigning sleep. Xiao Hua stood on the eaves, hands behind her back, like a sculpture.

With a slight adjustment to his eyes, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the leaves. Yang Pingsheng reached out to block the sunlight, ostensibly to shield himself from the sun, but actually to block Xiaohua's gaze from his lips.

"Latest update: Xu Anyin has killed the Grand Tutor, the Emperor's most trusted advisor. In the original plot, she could have turned him into a puppet, but unfortunately, one of the two slots was given to Xiaohua, and the other was given to Xiaozhu first and then to Gu Zi'ang. Now Xu Anlu has no way to control the Grand Tutor, so she can only kill him."

As the system's voice faded, Yang Pingsheng, observing Xiao Hua's movements, moved his lips and asked in the softest possible voice:

"Didn't that Grand Tutor have any connection with the Wentian Sect?"

"Of course there are, but not as deep as your connection with the Wentian Sect."

"Does the emperor have no reaction?"

"Ling Yan'er has fallen, and our greatest support is gone. What kind of reaction do you expect from the emperor?"

Xiao Hua sensed something and lowered her head. Yang Pingsheng below had already lowered his hand and was lying on his side. From her angle, she still couldn't see his mouth.

"Is the plan about to fall apart?"

"That's right, once she becomes empress, we'll do this here and that there, imprison her for a few years, and then we'll be done with it!"

Although the world's plans are endless and suffocating, that's only the early stage. In the middle stage, one can simply be a caged bird and then put on a good show in the later stage, and the world can be done.

"I'm afraid it'll be another tragedy," Yang Pingsheng thought, and couldn't help but sigh.

The system had already started thinking about traveling to the next world. As it was thinking, it suddenly realized something, paused, and said, "I think I've overlooked something."

"what?"

"Hmm...wait a minute, it seems to be a problem with the reception. Could it be that the energy was unstable in the early stages, so the Heavenly Dao Project didn't receive all of it?"

For some reason, Yang Pingsheng's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously asked, "Are you reliable or not?"

"Reliable, reliable, wait a moment, let me check."

When the system had plenty of energy, it squandered it and forged a bunch of weapons for Xu Anlu. But because they were so realistic, Xu Anlu couldn't use them, and they were all wasted. In the end, Yang Pingsheng had to find a blacksmith to make them himself.

Could it be that too much energy was wasted at that time, causing some to be missed in the planned reception? The system pondered and checked carefully, finding that there was indeed no problem.

But for some reason, it always felt like it was missing something.

"Is the investigation finished?"

"It's all set, no problem, don't worry."

"It should be fine," the system thought.

The Heavenly Dao's scheme is already clear. If Xu Anyin dares to launch a major purge, she will have fallen into the Heavenly Dao's trap. When the net is closed, all sorts of things like the "Kingly Way" will come into play, and Xu Anyin can only watch helplessly as things spiral out of control due to her arrogance, filled with regret.

嗏

That unease lingered, as if there was something it shouldn't have ignored, but had overlooked.

At that time, it stubbornly believed that there was no problem, and it wasn't until many years later that it finally understood.

definition.

The initial definition of a female villain given by Heaven was ignored by both Heaven and Yang Pingsheng.

This oversight turned into a disaster.

Chapter 81 The Devil is One Step Taller

The people in the government and the public were shaken.

At first, there was some opposition, but people only began to quiet down as the blood flowed from the execution platform all the way to the gate of the execution ground.

In the era of immortals, the political power of humans has been weakened. Without intervening in the political arena, Xu An'yin, who commands twelve immortals, is undoubtedly the most powerful figure in the court.

She swept through the court with an overbearing attitude, and with the help of intrigue and trickery, people surrendered at the mere sight of her, and no longer had the will to resist.

But she wasn't satisfied.

The court officials were horrified to discover that the princess's killings were erratic. They could understand why she had killed her opponents, but when she turned her blade on those who had already submitted to her, they were completely baffled.

What's going on? Opposition won't work, surrender won't work, so what can they do to save their lives?

Many officials, in order to avoid trouble, retired and returned to their hometowns. Xu Anyin smiled and agreed, but on the eve of their departure from the city, he massacred them all.

Slaughter, slaughter, a frenzied slaughter.

From the imperial court to Yong'an City, a blood-red storm swept through this ancient country.

The king, who was on the throne, could not stop all of this and could only watch helplessly as this little girl, who was about to turn thirteen, went around killing people like a madwoman.

An official entered the emperor's bedchamber late at night, tearfully telling him that he was determined to fight Xu Anyin to the death. The emperor wrote an edict in blood and gave it to them, instructing them to find a way out and call on the people of the world to punish the traitor.

Unfortunately, Xu Anyin had already laid out a reconnaissance-type immortal technique, and these people were all killed before they could even leave the palace gates.

The emperor himself rode in a carriage, armed himself, and stormed out of the palace gates, shouting for the traitors. He was then stabbed in the throat by a guard who caught up with him and fell to the ground dead.
