Black Silk Female Police Detective Exorcist

She becomes partners with a pure and innocent holy maiden of the demonic sect who remains untainted by the mud, and launches a powerful attack against the righteous sect leaders who have done all sorts of evil deeds in secret.

Wielding the power of divine punishment in human form, Yuan Tingxue in her dream pursues absolute justice, using the invincible Five Elements Divine Thunder to shatter all sins, becoming the strongest in the cultivation world. Countless cultivators from both the righteous and evil paths both admire and fear her.

Just when Yuan Tingxue was only half a step away from achieving perfect enlightenment and transcending the world, she encountered the most difficult choice of her life.

Her Daoist partner, the pure and innocent Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, committed a grave mistake.

In order to resurrect her mother, who died in an accident, the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect used forbidden and evil methods, sacrificing the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in the entire city, and bringing her mother's soul back to the mortal world intact from the underworld.

Such sins are intolerable to Heaven and Earth and cannot be absolved. Yuan Tingxue, who cultivates the Way of Heavenly Punishment in her dream, must personally execute her Daoist partner in order to achieve the perfection of her Dao heart and take the final step.

Having experienced pain and inner turmoil, in the end, after a grand finale as a farewell, Yuan Tingxue in the dream still chose to kill her wife to prove her Dao, personally summoning heavenly lightning to obliterate her Daoist companion.

After completing this step, Yuan Tingxue in the dream indeed achieved perfect enlightenment and transcended the dream... and woke up.

Objectively speaking, Yuan Tingxue's performance in the dream was definitely resolute. She remained steadfast in upholding the path of acting as the embodiment of divine punishment, even when facing her Daoist partner in the end.

However, this was, after all, a competition to choose a wife for a princess, yet Yuan Tingxue killed her wife to prove her virtue... How could she still get third place? Qin Huanyu couldn't even imagine how bad her and Wang Ruoxi's performance must have been.

While lost in thought, Qin Huanyu noticed that Yuan Tingxue seemed absent-minded and a bit distracted, so she curiously leaned over and asked:

"Tingxue, what's wrong?"

"……Why."

Yuan Tingxue completely lost her usual seemingly innocent demeanor; her eyes were deep and unfathomable.

"Ayu, do you think that if I also achieve perfect enlightenment and transcend in reality, it will be like waking up from a dream, with a different identity?"

"Ah this..."

Qin Huanyu thought for a moment, then just shrugged with a wry smile:

"I'm sorry, I don't know. I haven't studied philosophy much, so I can't answer this question."

During their casual conversation, Linglan had already completed her fourth attempt to exhale and exhale white mist. This time, the water surface transformed into a screen, displaying Qin Huanyu's dream experiences.

It's yet another completely different dream world, set in a fantasy world. In the dream, Qin Huanyu is a high school girl who has been summoned to this fantasy world to become a hero.

Qin Huanyu, a high school girl, was originally very ordinary, but after becoming a hero, she was immediately blessed with invincible power.

In her second year in the other world, Qin Huanyu in the dream defeated the Demon King who led four Demon Generals and a million Demon Soldiers, becoming the true savior and gaining a group of loyal followers.

The human royalty and nobles in the magical world feared her power and tried to harm her through moral blackmail, ruin her reputation, weaken her influence, and seize her power.

Faced with such a shameless betrayal, Qin Huanyu in the dream chose to abandon morality and not play any legal games with those nobles. Instead, she used her invincible power to wipe them all out and distributed their castles, manors, and wealth to her underlings.

In her dream, Qin Huanyu became the queen of a magical world, but she had no interest in governing the country. She distributed all the power to her subordinates and had a luxurious palace built for her, where she spent her days eating, drinking, and indulging in pleasure.

She was extremely extravagant, not only having her underlings help her gather a large number of rare treasures and delicacies, but also having them present her with many beautiful women.

Under her leadership, her former followers who had fought alongside her in the demon realm gradually degenerated, and some of their actions were even worse than those of the demons who had previously occupied human territory.

Those depraved underlings remained extremely loyal and respectful to Qin Huanyu in the dream world, offering her the finest treasures, delicacies, and beautiful women.

Those who could no longer bear the oppression rose up, stormed into her luxurious palace, denounced the crimes of her underlings, and hoped that she would uphold justice.

But amidst the gentle embrace of more than a dozen beautiful women, she lazily said:

"We defeated the demons and saved the world, can't we at least enjoy ourselves? Show the guests out, then we'll continue dancing, drinking, and having fun!"

The angry people, of course, would not give up easily, and they gathered together to overthrow her rule.

She used the power she once possessed to save the world to suppress the rebellion, and designed a variety of powerful new weapons for her followers to use. The rebels were no match for her.

After paying the price of countless lives, the remaining people finally faced reality and chose to give up resistance and accept their fate.

However, people's love and worship for the savior completely turned into hatred and fear.

The heroine Qin Huanyu and her followers in the dream also completely degenerated in this shift in public opinion.

In her dream, Qin Huanyu herself became the new Demon King, her underlings became Demon Generals and Demon Soldiers, and her favorite concubines became Succubi.

The Demon King and succubi indulged in pleasure in their luxurious palaces every day, while the Demon Generals and soldiers used every means to exploit ordinary people... The entire dream world was shrouded in darkness.

Finally, Suzuran, who was in charge of constructing and observing the dream world, couldn't stand it anymore, so she arranged for an invincible hero to descend, wanting to kill the Demon King and wake him up from the dream.

However, Qin Huanyu in the dream seemed to be very attached to her life in the dream. She actually used her original power without any memory of reality, defeated the new hero, and turned the heroine into a succubus to play with at will.

So Linglan tried to shut down the dream world directly, but unexpectedly, the demon king Qin Huanyu in the dream world awakened some of his real-world abilities, hacked Linglan's control over the dream world, and wanted to use his computing power to digitize and realistically construct the dream world and put it into the Jade Network as a resort.

Frustrated and exasperated, Linglan resorted to her ultimate move, taking out her golden needle and stabbing Qin Huanyu in the real world several times before finally managing to forcibly awaken her.

Without a doubt, Qin Huanyu failed this test of willpower... As a hero, she failed to uphold her principles, succumbing to luxurious indulgence and becoming the new Demon King.

Everyone looked at her with a teasing gaze, except for two people.

Yi Youyou pinched her, her cheeks puffed out in anger:

"How is it to be served by dozens of favored concubines at the same time?"

"I do not know!"

Qin Huanyu cried out loudly that she was innocent:

"Dr. Linglan is so unfair! She won't even let us retain the wonderful memories of our dreams... Youyou, don't you also not remember anything from your dreams? Besides, the me in the dream doesn't have any memories of me in reality. She's not me at all! How can what she did be attributed to me?"

"Hmph, that's just your nature."

Yi Youyou was still pouting, but her complexion was noticeably better.

Linglan rolled her eyes at Qin Huanyu, clearly annoyed.

"I'm not letting you retain your dream memories, isn't it for your own good? Don't be fooled by the fact that only half a day has passed in reality; you've experienced decades in your dreams... What if the dream memories cause cognitive confusion?"

"Well... that's true."

Qin Huanyu chuckled awkwardly, not daring to shift the blame onto Linglan any further.

Another person who didn't have time to joke with Qin Huanyu was Wang Ruoxi, who came in last place.

At this moment, she was not in the mood to watch the fun at all. Instead, her face was pale and her eyes were full of disbelief. If Qin Huanyu was so depraved and only ranked 4th, then how heinous must her behavior in the dream be?

As the lily of the valley released white mist into the water in the basin for the fifth time, Wang Ruoxi's dream experience unfolded like a movie.

This dream world is probably the most similar to reality; it's a modern urban world.

However, its national conditions are vastly different from those of the Holy Zhou Kingdom, and it is more like the White Eagle Federation across the sea.

In the dream, Wang Ruoxi is still a member of a privileged family, and she has shown amazing artistic talent since childhood, making her very famous in the industry.

Unlike the Holy Zhou Kingdom, Wang Ruoxi in the dream, while receiving more financial support, also faced more temptations.

Before long, she lost her original passion for pursuing artistic excellence, and her various calligraphy and painting creations gradually became capitalized and commercialized. She would even endure disgust and create the types of works she hated the most for the sake of profit.

In her dreams, Wang Ruoxi tried using drugs to get high and participated in intense group sex, creating a large number of vulgar works that she despised in reality.

However, the highs and indulgence in nightlife come at a price. Before she was even 30, the once-genius young artist had already lost her spark, her body had become a withered flower, she was abandoned by all her investors, and finally died a miserable death in a garbage dump in an alley, ending her dream.

"Oh no...this isn't me!"

Wang Ruoxi's face turned pale when she was observing the dream replay, and now her vision went black, she vomited blood and fainted on the table.

Bai Ling, at Ling Lan's prompting, quickly stepped forward to treat Wang Ruoxi.

The others didn't laugh at Wang Ruoxi's performance in the dream; instead, they seemed thoughtful.

Wang Ruoxi's current achievements are largely due to the protection she received from her family and the national environment... She can focus wholeheartedly on art without being disturbed or corrupted by the outside world, which makes her seem somewhat naive and saintly.

But in a country like the White Eagle Federation, which is completely controlled by capital, the fate of most so-called geniuses might be to be exploited like a chicken being killed for its eggs and then discarded... If Wang Ruoxi in reality were also born in the White Eagle Federation, her fate might not be much better than in the dream.

Wang Ruoxi herself must have thought of this, which is why she broke down, vomited blood, fainted, and even her Daoist heart, which was based on painting, became somewhat unstable.

. . . . .

That night, after the willpower test ended, at the Jixian Hall of the Imperial Palace.

Empress Wu Tianyi and Princess Wu Xiqun, after a long time, were playing chess and chatting.

"……how?"

While pondering where to place her piece, the Empress smiled and said:

"Your selection of a concubine has progressed this far, you should have already seen quite a bit, and made a decision in your heart, right, Qunqun?"

"Ah."

Wu Xi's movements were quite casual, and she even ate a strawberry:

"This selection of concubines may seem like a 5-to-1 competition, but it's actually a 3-to-1 competition. Sister Yu and Sister Youyou have been in cahoots for a long time. They didn't want to win at all; they were just helping their teammates control the score... Only Sister Ruoxi is struggling miserably on her own, and she's ranked last."

"So, do you have feelings for either of them, Miss Qunqun?"

The Empress squinted and asked with a smile.

"I have designs on all of them! It would be wonderful if I could make them all my concubines!"

Wu Xi made no attempt to conceal her ambition, first gesturing as if she were embracing two women on either side, before sighing helplessly:

"But I also know that this is impossible. I can only choose one person to be the princess consort... So it's no use for me to have feelings for Sister Yu and Sister Youyou. I can't choose them. The third party is the easiest thing to ruin a relationship and cause hatred, and they are both people I need to befriend."

"good."

The Queen nodded in satisfaction:

"Since you have this awareness, I feel at ease entrusting the country to you... Who is the most suitable candidate for princess consort in your mind right now?"

"Sister Ruoxi definitely can't do it."

Wu Xiqun did not answer directly, but instead analyzed it from this perspective:

"I simply cannot imagine what it would be like to marry a saint. The empress of Holy Week could not be a saint either, at the very least not a true saint like Sister Ruoxi."

"Sister Tingxue is very nice. I like her talent and appearance very much. She also has two very beautiful younger sisters... cough cough. However, Sister Tingxue obviously prefers cultivation and slaying demons. The work and responsibilities of the empress are not suitable for her."

So there's not just one answer anymore?

Snapped.

Wu Xiqun took a deep breath and placed the final piece that would decide the outcome of the game:

"The most suitable candidate is Sister Yue. She has the ability to be a good empress, she also wants to be an empress, and she grew up with me since childhood, so we know each other very well."

"That girl, Nangong Yue... well, she's really quite good."

The Empress nodded slightly and smiled again:

"However, Nangong girl is only the most suitable person to be the empress among the candidates for princess consort, and may not be the person you feel the most for, right?"

"Is there any difference?"

Wu Xiqun took another strawberry and put it in her mouth:

"No matter who I feel most connected to, the empress can only be the most suitable person... If I don't even have this awareness and understanding, then I am an unqualified heir to the throne."

"...Alas, this is probably the destiny of our royal family."

The Empress remained silent for a while, her eyes somewhat unfocused, as if she were recalling the hidden emotional entanglements of her youth.

After a moment, the Empress gently shook her head and continued to ask with a smile:

"After you choose Nangong girl as your concubine, how will you continue to get along with them?"

"Hmmmmmm..."

This time, Wu Xiqun thought for a moment before saying:

"There's definitely no problem with Sister Yue. We've been playing together since we were little. To me, she's always been the hot and sexy girl next door. It's only natural that she'd become my wife."

"Sister Ruoxi... let's just forget about it. I really can't get along with saintly artists. Let her continue to study art."

"Sister Tingxue and Sister Youyou are both very interesting. They are beautiful and have good personalities. I will become good friends and besties with them, just like you, Grandma, and Senior Lei."

"As for Sister Yu..."

Wu Xiqun's face suddenly turned red, her legs straightened, and her toes clenched.

"...What? So you really do have feelings for Yu'er?"

The Empress suddenly said meaningfully:

"But didn't you say you didn't plan on having a third party involved?"

"I'm just saying I won't ruin their relationship by choosing one of them as a concubine!"

Wu Xiqun suddenly became a little excited, her face flushed, and her eyes became a little watery:

"But...but I really want to have an affair with Sister Yu! Originally, this thought wasn't very strong, but after imagining her marrying Sister Youyou, and me marrying Sister Yue, a strange feeling has made me almost unable to control myself! I want to have an affair with Sister Yu behind Sister Yue's back and behind Sister Youyou's back! I really, really want to!"
