Your Majesty, you don’t want your secret to be known, do you?

Chapter 97 The unreasonable empress

"I'm not looking down on you, I'm just a little worried..."

Li Yunshu's sophistry seemed feeble.

Pei Xuanji, on the other hand, said nothing and chose to smash this guy's face with actual actions.

"Stay away."

"Yes."

Hearing this, Li Yunshu did not dare to say anything more and immediately stepped aside.

After a stick of incense.

boom!
As a puff of black smoke emerged, Li Yunshu immediately held his breath.

He now regrets that he should have just exited the alchemy room.

It's just that he cares too much about the success or failure of the elixir, so he wants to watch it here.

However, now he felt like it was wrong for him to stand in this room and even breathe.

Sure enough - just as he expected.

The empress suddenly turned her head and glared at him.

"Tsk! I told you not to disturb me!"

Li Yunshu didn't dare to express his anger. He was already standing at the door without saying a word. How could he throw the blame away?

The first time he failed, if he messed up the empress's mind, I would admit it.

The second failure can only be said to be a technical problem.

"I'm guilty, I'm going to resign."

With that said, he bowed and exited the alchemy room.

The empress is also a woman, and she is still unreasonable after all.

After exiting the alchemy room, Li Yunshu did not leave, but listened to every move in the room.

inside the house.

Pei Xuanji looked at the black smoke that had not yet dissipated. Although she was a little tired, she felt strong in her stomach. She insisted on refining this green magic pill.

After two sticks of incense, Li Yunshu stood outside the house and faintly smelled a medicinal fragrance.

He felt happy and rushed into the alchemy room as soon as he stepped forward.

However, as soon as he raised his foot, he suppressed it again.

Hold on tight.

I don’t know if the elixir has been refined yet. If I break in at the last critical moment, I will have to take the blame again.

When the time comes, not only will he not be able to get his hands on the Qing Huan Dan.

The empress would never admit that her alchemy skills were not good, and would only blame him for this.

After a while, the Queen's voice came from inside the house.

"Get out yet."

"Yes."

Hearing the empress' arrogant tone, Li Yunshu knew that his Qing Huan Dan was ready.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw the empress's back which was wet with sweat.

His heart felt inexplicably tight and his steps stopped.

Seeing no movement, Pei Xuanji turned to look at Li Yunshu, who was standing at the door with some confusion.

After reacting, Pei Xuanji immediately took out a handkerchief and wiped her face.

"Is there something dirty on my face?"

She had just blown up the oven twice, and she didn't notice whether she was exposed to the smoke.

Noticing that the empress' hair at the temples was wet with sweat, Li Yunshu stepped forward step by step.

"Thank you."

These two simple words did not contain the respect and flattery of a courtier, but only the sincerity from the heart.

"you--"

Seeing Li Yunshu like this for the first time, Pei Xuanji's heart trembled.

However, Li Yunshu succeeded in the next moment and complimented him with a flattering look on his face.

"Your Majesty's alchemy skills would put you to shame even if Sun Shichang were alive."

"..."

Pei Xuanji waved her sleeves and all the sweat on her body evaporated, then she raised her chin slightly and accepted the flattery from this guy calmly.

She put the elixir into Li Yunshu's hand and then said.

"You can refine this elixir here, I'm exhausted."

"As ordered, I send you off to your Majesty." Li Yunshu looked at Pei Xuanji's leaving figure until he disappeared from sight, and then his eyes fell on the pill in his hand.

Is it the guidance given to me by my master to turn falsehood into reality? I will know after taking the elixir.

He sat cross-legged next to the elixir furnace, opened his mouth and drank the elixir.

As the elixir entered his stomach, its power quickly spread to his limbs and bones.

At the same time, he only felt that his mind was clear, and the contents of the Illusion God Art were turned over in his mind page by page.

This mysterious feeling made him suddenly understand what he had been puzzled about in the past, and his understanding of the magic of illusion went to a higher level.

As his eyelashes trembled slightly, he seemed to see his master sitting in a quiet room, writing the words "Illusion God Art" one stroke at a time.

call--

As he finished writing the three words "Illusion God Technique", he suddenly opened his eyes.

At the same time, that mysterious feeling disappeared without a trace.

Even if he closed his eyes again, he couldn't capture that feeling.

Looking at the alchemy furnace in front of him, he slowly closed his eyes, and then stretched out his palm.

With the release of divine consciousness, the alchemy furnace made a slight trembling sound.

After a moment, he gasped and opened his eyes.

Looking at the alchemy furnace that still existed, he couldn't help but shook his head secretly.

Although it is one step closer to turning truth into fiction, it has not yet succeeded.

But one thing is for sure, the Green Magic Pill is indeed very effective in improving his illusion skills.

He couldn't help but look at the sky outside the house and murmured.

"Master, is that you?"

……

Late at night, Yuanlai Inn, second floor.

Li Yunshu stood by the window, opened a crack, and then stared outside carefully.

In the room, the empress sat at the table and poured herself a cup of tea.

She let out a light sigh as the tea entered her mouth.

"This tea——"

Li Yunshu glanced at the empress behind him from the corner of his eye, and then explained.

"This is the tea that His Majesty often drinks in the palace."

The corners of Pei Xuanji's mouth curved slightly, this guy was quite thoughtful.

"If you had put all these thoughts into cultivation, you would have stepped into Yuanying long ago."

"..."

"No need to stare. Even if that person comes, you probably won't be able to see him with your eyesight."

"That may not be... coming!"

As soon as Li Yunshu finished speaking, a figure disappeared on the second floor of Yuelai Teahouse.

At this time, the empress had already teleported to his side.

Since there was only a crack in the window, the two people were very close to each other.

After seeing the man's back clearly, she stood at the window for a long time without saying a word.

Li Yunshu also stepped aside wisely, observing the empress' reaction from the corner of his eye.

It seems that the empress does not know who the leader of the Demon Sect is.

However, that person was the closest person to the empress - Shangguan Shuangyue.

His most trusted subordinate turned out to be the leader of the Demon Sect, and he was stirring up trouble in Da Chu.

The empress's trust was undoubtedly trampled upon by Shangguan Shuangyue.

hum!
Pei Xuanji's figure disappeared in a flash. Li Yunshu's eyelids twitched and he immediately chased after her.

Yuelai Teahouse, second floor.

Shangguan Shuangyue looked at Gao Gong sitting in the room, feeling that something was wrong.

"What on earth is going on that you have to see me in person?"

Gao Gong immediately stood up, his tone full of respect.

"It's not that I want to see you, but someone wants to see you."

"Someone wants to see me?"

After hearing this, Shangguan Shuangyue immediately realized that something was wrong. She flashed and teleported out of the window.

However, as soon as she stepped out of the second-floor window, the space around her suddenly became solid, and a jade hand was printed on her chest.
