Villain: At The Beginning, He Cut Out The Heroine's Pupil With A Knife

"Old Qu, I know, so I won't act rashly for now. But what should we do next?"

"I originally hoped to win the championship at the Hundred Sects Conference, and with this reputation, Lord Wei would have a reason to pull you into the Longmen Guard, but now it seems... it's hanging."

"All this is because of Yin Wuji!"

Qin Yang punched the stone wall fiercely.

"Okay, there's no point in talking more. Now I'll find a way to restore my soul strength first, and then reshape my body. When I return to my peak, it will be easy for you to break the Supreme."

"So the most important thing at the moment is to find those things that can nourish the soul."

"Old Qu, I know, I will go to the sect to investigate now and see where there are natural treasures that can nourish the soul."

...

Chen Yuan's study.

The desk is already full of various files.

But Chen Yuan seems to be tireless and is still flipping through them word by word.

"Master, it's so late, it's almost time to rest..."

You Ruo behind him felt a little distressed.

"You are not in good health, take a rest first, don't worry about me." Chen Yuan said, still carefully checking these files. If the empress wants to plant a hidden player in the Shen family, then the identity of this hidden player cannot be too low, because if the identity is too low, it will not be able to access the secrets of the Shen family. Therefore, this hidden player can only be a senior member of the Shen family. Therefore, Chen Yuan checked the information of each senior member of the Shen family all night to see who is most likely to betray the family. But Chen Yuan was distressed that, in terms of information, he could only simply exclude two elders. The seventh elder and the eighth elder. These two elders secretly have a grudge against the royal family, so they will never betray. Because of the plot, although Shen Bin is also an insider later, he can still be excluded for now. But there are ten elders in the Shen family elder hall, that is to say, in addition to these three people, there are seven elders who are obviously suspected! Seven! How to check this? And they are elders of the Shen family. Chen Yuan tapped the table with his index finger, frowning and thinking. If the emperor wants to persuade the elders of the Shen family to betray the family, then the price the royal family will pay must be huge, so huge that the elders will be accused of betraying the family.

With the current foundation of Northern Qi, they should be able to persuade at most one person...

But the problem is... Chen Yuan looked at the information of the elders on the table.

Which one is it?

Just when Chen Yuan was thinking hard, there was a cry of an owl outside the window.

Chen Yuan frowned slightly, and he naturally heard the messenger night owl he raised in Yinxu Valley.

He opened the window, scanned the area, let the night owl fall into his hand, and then took out the secret letter on his leg.

After reading it, he turned the secret letter into dust.

"Is the Demon Cult so fast? But with Shi Zhuo and others around, there will be no problem."

Immediately, Chen Yuan sat cross-legged and circulated the Zhou Tian.

Chen Yuan's experiment has been verified. As long as the protagonist's destiny and luck are reduced, his pupil power can be improved.

As his pupil power gradually increased, it affected his own spiritual power, giving Chen Yuan a faint sign of a breakthrough.

Feeling the surging spiritual power in his body, Chen Yuan channeled it to the meridians and bones.

Instantly, his spiritual power began to transform.

Chen Yuan's whole body was also glowing with a new spiritual power fluctuation.

Chen Yuan sneered, he knew that he had successfully broken through, it was not as difficult as he imagined, but it was a natural process without any obstacles.

After the breakthrough, Chen Yuan once again restrained his spiritual power and suppressed his cultivation to the state of half-step supreme.

This is his biggest trump card, and it cannot be exposed as soon as possible.

With Chen Yuan's personality, there must be many restrictions around his room, and the vision of breaking the supreme is also hidden by the formation. As long as he doesn't say it, no one can even know that Chen Yuan has advanced from half-step supreme to the real supreme tonight!

...

At the same time, the imperial city.

The envoys sent by the empress have returned, and with them came a broken holy pill newly refined by the Wanyao Dan Sect.

The empress took the broken holy pill.

"Eunuch Li."

"This old servant is here."

"Starting tomorrow, I will retreat to the Supreme Saint, so the court meeting will be suspended for a while."

"But... Your Majesty, the drought in Yanzhou is urgent. If we don't find a way to relieve the disaster as soon as possible, there may be a mutiny if we delay for too long..."

"I said I want to retreat, don't you understand? Or do you want to teach me how to do things?"

"This old servant is terrified!"

Eunuch Li knelt down quickly.

With a cold snort, the empress stepped out from his side, then turned into a divine rainbow and fled away.

After entering the cultivation pool, taking the Saint Breaking Pill, he sat cross-legged and refined the pill power.

"I must break the saint and become a saint! I can't allow Chen Yuan to be so presumptuous and blaspheme the imperial power!"

Tonight, there is a sign of breaking the saint in the imperial city.

…

The next morning, the ministers could not help but talk about it when they saw that the empress did not come. Eunuch Li also announced the news that the empress was in seclusion. The morning court was temporarily put on hold. It would be held again when it was appropriate. The empress would come out of seclusion and discuss it again.

"Have we made it clear? Since it has been made clear, there is nothing else to do. You adults can just disperse."

Chen Yuan thought secretly.

Chen Jian and Chen Dao had just reported to the Wanyao Dan Sect that they had refined another Saint-breaking Pill for the empress. Today, the empress began to retreat. I guess she was retreating to become a saint.

Can't wait? Or did I put too much pressure on her?

Thinking of this, Chen Yuan also arrived at Luoxia Palace. After dismissing everyone as usual, Chen Yuan took Doctor Zhou into the little princess's room.

"Doctor Zhou, let's treat the little princess as usual today..."

…

I don't know how long it took. After completing today's treatment, the little princess was playing and frolicking with Chen Yuan happily again.

"Little Princess, did Her Majesty ask you how I cured you?"

Princess Qianrou tilted her head.

"Prime Minister, you are amazing. It's exactly as you expected. Sister did ask me how you cured me. How could you guess that?"

Chen Yuan did not answer and continued to ask.

"Then did you say it as I taught you?"

"Of course! I told you that every time you cured me, you used the Thousand Illusionary Spiritual Eyes to nourish my soul. I didn't tell you that your treatment method required me to fall asleep."

Chen Yuan raised the corner of his mouth: "That's good. Since the little princess is so obedient, I will tell you three stories today."

"No, no, you still owed me a story yesterday, so you have to tell me four today!"

Chen Yuan rubbed her little head: "Okay, then four..."
