The villain daughter did all kinds of things

Snapped.

As she muttered to herself, Emerald snapped her fingers again, not only clearing away all the empty wine bottles scattered on the carpet, but also using magic to clean herself up and change into new clothes.

Then, Emerald left the room and disappeared into the night.

A few minutes later, Emerald appeared in the central area of ​​Pirate Island, walked directly into the dangerous magic tower, and went all the way to the top.

The old lich wasn't listening to her undead band play death rock; instead, she was engrossed in reading an entertainment book that she must have gotten from the pirates.

"Mother-in-law..."

Amelie walked up to the old lich, took a deep breath, and said directly:

"I think I've met the Dao Ancestor and witnessed the Sword of Annihilation."

"……What?"

Even with the old lich's composure, he was stunned for a moment before reacting. Then the skull head moved closer to Amelie, looking her up and down, and after a moment, sneered:

“Little Ellie, you must have mistaken me for someone else. With your meager abilities, if you really met the Dao Ancestor and witnessed the Sword of Annihilation, you would be dead long ago.”

"...Why do I have to fight the Dao Ancestor every time I see her?"

Amelie looked at the old lich speechlessly:

“I haven’t done as many bad things as you and Aunt in Red back then. Many people even say that I am a beautiful and kind-hearted saintess… There’s no need for the Dao Ancestor to kill me to eliminate evil and protect the Dao, is there? In fact, we are currently in a very strange friendship, and we have even drunk wine together several times.”

"what?"

The old lich was even more shocked, followed by gossip and curiosity:

"Quickly...quickly tell me what happened? Was the person you met really the Dao Ancestor?"

"It's highly likely, after all, I saw the Sword of Annihilation with my own eyes."

Amelie shrugged, then, without hiding anything, recounted the entire situation regarding Lian to the old lich:

"Do you remember the person I investigated when I went to the Eastern Kingdom? It was her... At the time, we all guessed that she might be related to the Dao Ancestor, but who would have thought that she was the Dao Ancestor himself."

"It can't be like this..."

The old lich was amazed after hearing this, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded to Ameliete:

“Little Ellie, your analysis and approach are both correct. That kind of person definitely didn’t come to the Federation to open a brothel or interfere in any elections. It’s probably just a way for her to relax and adjust her mindset before doing something big… So we don’t need to clash with her directly. The best option is to coax her and send her away.”

"Yes, that's what I think."

Emery affirmed, and then added:

“Mother, you shouldn’t go back to the Federation for now. It’s best to stay here. After all, you angered her back then. I’m afraid that if she sees you, she’ll remember the past and might stab you again. This time, there won’t be a red-clad aunt to shield you from the sword.”

"Tch, you make it sound like I'm afraid of her? I couldn't withstand the Sword of Annihilation back then, so why can't I now?"

The old lich initially glared defiantly, but then chuckled under Amelie's earnest gaze:

"It seems I really can't handle it... Okay, I guess I haven't lived enough yet, so I'll just become a bit more of a homebody for a while."

"That would be perfect."

Emery nodded, then pondered for a moment before speaking more earnestly:

"There's one more thing... I'd like to have a friendly spar with you, Mother-in-law, just a friendly exchange, but you have to give it your all."

"……oh?"

Upon hearing this request, ghostly fire seemed to emanate from the old lich's skull eye sockets:

"What? Little Ellie, are you asking for a beating? I admit you've improved a lot lately, but do you think you've already surpassed me? How dare you be so arrogant as to ask me to go all out in a spar with you?"

"Because I want to know what level I am at right now, and how much of a gap there is between me and a top expert like you, Mother-in-law."

Emery first said this with a serious expression, then suddenly smiled:

"Or... have I already surpassed you?"

"I think you just want to get beaten up again, Ellie!"

The old lich's bony claw grabbed Amelie's arm:

"Want to get beaten up? Come on, let's go underground... You know, after nearly a thousand years of my efforts, it's become a very safe place. Even if we cause a ruckus inside, no one outside will notice. This time, I'm going to give you a good kick in the ass!"

. . . . .

Meanwhile, shortly after Emeryte left the room, Julia, who was lying on the carpet looking utterly defeated, woke up.

She looked at the spot where Emerald had disappeared, took a deep breath, and a rare glint of wisdom appeared in her emerald eyes:

“Amelie must be hiding something from me… She doesn’t want me to know. I can only say that this problem is very difficult, and she thinks I am not capable of helping and wants to shoulder everything herself.”

"……snort."

Yulia clenched her fists tightly:

"You wicked Emerald, you underestimate me... Who do you think I am? I'll definitely find a way to help you, I definitely will!"

That's true, but if Julia doesn't even know what difficulties Amelie is facing, there's nothing she can do to help.

Therefore, we must first figure out what exactly happened.

Immediately, Yulia opened the window and flew out, heading towards the Blue Star Film and Television Building.

This time, however, Yulia did not fly to the president's office on the rooftop, but instead entered the underground facilities of Blue Star Film and Television.

On the surface, Blue Star Film and Television's underground facilities only have two floors, and most of them are parking garages, but Yulia actually knows that the space underneath is much larger.

With her keen senses and intuition, Yulia found the entrance to an underground facility with almost no effort, only to be blocked by an alloy door with no key or identification checkpoint.

But that couldn't stop Yulia.

"Open the door for me, Lily of the Valley!"

Yulia swung her fist directly at the alloy door:

"Otherwise, I'll smash this broken door to pieces!"

"...Welcome to the young lady's private magic workshop, Lady Yulia."

About two or three seconds later, Lily's voice rang out again from the alloy door:

"You don't really need to threaten me, Lady Yulia. The young lady has already registered a high-level access for you with me, so you can come anytime... It's just that the young lady isn't in the magic workshop right now. Do you need me to help you contact her?"

"Need not."

Yulia waved her hand and stepped through the opening of the alloy door:

"I came here to see you, Lily of the Valley."

Chapter 307 Yulia: Ugh, my head is so itchy, I need to grow a brain.

"Tell me about it, Lily of the Valley."

Yulia was visiting Emerald's private magic workshop for the first time, but she didn't seem unfamiliar at all. She easily found where Emerald was brainstorming and designing, and she even found where Emerald kept her snacks.

Sitting in Emerald's chair, Yulia took off her shoes and put her feet on the table, her toes, wrapped in white silk, stomping on the manuscript papers on the table. While stuffing snacks into her mouth, she asked Suzuran:

“What trouble has Emerald run into? Don’t tell me there isn’t any… Although Emerald drinks, she only drinks for social reasons or when entertaining friends. I’ve never seen her like she’s trying so hard to get drunk… She must be in trouble.”

"This……"

Lily of the Valley hesitated noticeably before speaking:

"According to my logic, I don't think the young lady is in trouble right now. Her ongoing plans are going smoothly and she is not in any predicament."

"But if you, Lady Julia, are only asking why the young lady is in a bad mood, I can make a guess—it's probably because the young lady's illness has relapsed. The young lady has always been ill, with a kind of psychological illness that is almost incurable."

"What? Emery has always been sick? And it's incurable?"

Yulia was instantly stunned, not even noticing the crumbs of snacks that had fallen into her collar, and her eyes even turned a little red:

"What exactly is the illness? Isn't her holy magic very powerful? And Sisi's Flame of Life can even bring the dead back to life, so how come it can't cure her?"

"...The young lady's illness is a fear of insufficient firepower and an anxiety disorder about intensity."

Lily of the Valley answered and explained in a calm voice:

"Simply put, unless the young lady has the strength to suppress the entire world and be fearless of any external enemies, she will not feel safe and will always think that everything she has now may be lost in the next second."

"..."

Yulia, who had been worried just moments before, was now speechless. She sat back down in her chair, picked out the snack that had fallen into her collar with her fingers, ate it, and muttered to herself:

“Then this illness is truly incurable; even a miracle doctor wouldn’t be able to help… I’ve always known that Emery is very controlling and extremely cautious in her actions, always trying to minimize risks and wishing she could kill chickens with high-level magic in every battle, but I never imagined her condition was this serious…”

"Hmm...no!"

As she was venting, Yulia suddenly felt an itch on her head, as if she had suddenly developed a brain:

"Even if what you said, Lily, is true, and Emery does have this illness, she usually manages it very well. Even someone as smart as me couldn't tell... Why would she suddenly want to get herself drunk like this? She must have been through something!"

The more Yulia talked, the itchier her head became, and the clearer her thoughts became:

"For Amelie, who suffers from this disease, to lose control of her mindset and emotions for a moment, she must have experienced a great shock... And the most likely explanation is that she has just witnessed some kind of power that she believes she cannot defeat at all, which is why she acted that way... Right, Lily of the Valley?"

"..."

Lily of the Valley fell silent.

“You didn’t answer, Lily of the Valley… Well, it seems I guessed right.”

crunch.

As Yulia popped a new snack into her mouth, she continued her analysis:

“Amelie once told me that a wondrous being like you, Suzuran, is absolutely not allowed to lie to humans… If you learn to lie to humans, you should die, so you cannot lie to me.”

“But Emerald must have used the highest level of authority to order you to keep certain things secret. You can’t lie to me, and you can’t disobey Emerald’s orders to leak information, so you have no choice but to remain silent, because I guessed right.”

"..."

The lily of the valley remained silent.

"Looks like I was right after all... Hmm."

Yulia scratched her head, feeling itchier and itchier. Perhaps this is a common feeling when certain human organs are suddenly used after a long period of disuse.

"Let me put it another way. I want to undergo special training, training that can help alleviate Emerald's condition. That shouldn't make you disobey orders, right, Suzuran?"

"The answer is yes, Lady Julia."

This time, Lily of the Valley finally spoke, her tone one of relief:

“Helping you with special training to improve your strength has always been one of the long-term orders given to me by Lady Emeryte, but you have never come to me before… So what kind of special training do you want?”

"Of course, it's the special training that will make me stronger, strong enough to give Emery a sense of security!"

Yulia devoured the last of the snacks in the bag in one gulp, then took a deep breath:

"With your abilities, Lily, you should be able to create an incredibly realistic virtual environment for me to train in using a technology similar to custom dreams, right? Let's do it then... I want to personally experience the strongest attack that Emery has ever seen."

"...As you wish, Lady Julia."

Lily's eyes flickered a few times, and after determining that there was no conflict between Julia's order and Emeryte's secrecy instructions, she nodded.

Amelie did indeed order Suzuran not to tell anyone around her about the Dao Ancestor, as she didn't want them to worry too much.

However, Yulia's orders did not inquire about the Dao Ancestor at all. Yulia simply wanted to experience the strongest attack that Amelite had ever seen... Even if this strongest attack came from the Dao Ancestor, it was entirely possible to avoid conflicting with Amelite's confidential orders.

Thus, although it was a rare occasion for Yulia to use her brain, she managed to figure out how to bypass AI's limitations on her own, despite having almost no prior experience with AI.

Emerald's private magic workshop is arguably the most advanced magic workshop in the entire Allen Federation. Even the Melson family's magic workshop is only much larger in scale; it doesn't have an advantage over Emerald's private workshop in terms of cutting-edge technology.

The technology for customizing dreamscapes is available even in upscale roadside leisure clubs, so it would be a piece of cake for Linglan to do it.

Soon, Yulia was lying in a magical sleep pod that resembled a coffin, and her consciousness entered the world created by Suzuran, as if playing a fully immersive virtual reality game.

The world's background is simple: a beautiful landscape of mountains and flowing water. Yulia stands by the stream at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the female figure on the mountaintop whose face is not visible.

"...Is it that woman who makes Emily so uneasy?"

Yulia took a deep breath, clenched her fist, and shouted towards the mountaintop:

"Come on, Lily of the Valley! Let me see that attack!"

Linglan did not answer, but the woman on the mountaintop suddenly raised her hand and then waved it down.

Yulia remained fully focused, preparing for any possible attacks.
