Chapter 186: Lady Dongjun Gets Furious, Whoever Dares Intervene Will Die! Making Puppets!
Resting his head on his left shoulder was a woman so beautiful she could ruin a country.
On his right sat a dignified, noble beauty.
But her poetic and picturesque face held a gaze as cold as ice.
Hadn’t she just been burned to death by the fire?
In an instant, Feng Daji felt a chill in his hands and feet.
Cold sweat poured down his body like rain.
Even the dumbest person could see that everything that had happened just now was a lie!
There was no fire in the tent, and the demon woman hadn’t rescued him.
He hadn’t completed the task either!
Not only was there no beauty bestowed upon him, but he had also been exposed!
But how did they do it?
Everything from before had felt so real.
The scorching heat of the flames, the terrified screams, the chaotic scene.
Each moment had seemed as real as if it had happened.
Even now, he could still feel the burning sensation on his face.
Feng Daji released the burly man in his arms and touched his cheek.
Strangely, it felt swollen.
Hot and swollen, it felt as if he’d been slapped multiple times.
“Feng Daji, or should I call you Feng Lao San, that’s your real name, isn’t it?”
Everything Feng Daji had said and done just now had been observed by Meng Tian and his men.
Meng Tian, already furious, quickly rose to his feet.
His tiger-like eyes glared at Feng Daji.
Yan Lingji’s Fire Charm technique was extraordinary; it could coax someone into revealing their deepest obsessions.
The scene of the burning tent was an illusion she had created.
It wasn’t just targeted at Feng Daji.
From the moment she manipulated the flame from the oil lamp, everyone present had fallen under her illusion.
This was similar to how Lady Mingzhu and Lady Hu drugged the Emperor of Han.
It was a type of illusion magic from Baiyue.
The difference was, Lady Mingzhu needed drugs to perform her magic, while Yan Lingji could do it with just fire.
“Seize him!”
Meng Tian’s angry shout snapped Feng Daji back to reality.
When he looked clearly, he saw several soldiers with long spears closing in on him.
Feng Daji’s pupils contracted—how could he just sit there and die?
With a quick step, he moved beside a soldier.
With his level-seven strength, he was far superior to ordinary soldiers.
He grabbed the long spear from the soldier’s hands.
Glancing briefly at Li Mo, he coldly laughed: “If I’m going to die today, I’ll take you down with me!”
He had long been envious of Li Mo.
A blind man rising to the rank of National Adviser was one thing, but to be accompanied by two stunning beauties?
Sure, he looked a bit more handsome, but what did he have that I don’t?
Jealousy twisted his features as Feng Daji lost his sanity, charging towards Li Mo with a deranged expression.
He knew he wouldn’t escape, but if he could take down the Qin State’s National Adviser before he died, it wouldn’t be in vain.
“Protect National Adviser!”
“Stop him now!”
Soldiers quickly rushed over.
But Feng Daji’s sudden attack, backed by his superior strength, was something they couldn’t stop.
As he neared Li Mo, a sinister smile played on his face.
The spear gleamed, swinging like a full moon in the air.
The spearhead aimed straight for Li Mo’s throat.
The opposite Li Mo and the demon girl who would start a fire seemed already scared stiff by him.
The two remained motionless, maintaining their sitting posture.
“Go to hell!”
He roared, his expression nearly deranged, as if he could already see Li Mo’s head falling.
However, suddenly, a huge pressure came.
It felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him, making his whole skeleton tremble.
Although he was less than a zhang away from Li Mo, it was as if a chasm separated them, making it impossible to get any closer.
“What’s going on?”
Feng Daji was shocked!
Why couldn’t he move at all?
Before he could figure out the reason, his entire body was lifted uncontrollably into the air.
It seemed as though countless invisible ropes were wrapped around him, lifting him up.
Feng Daji floated in the air, as if he was in a muddy swamp.
His whole body couldn’t move, completely out of his own control.
“Wha…what’s going on?”
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and this strange scene filled him with immense terror.
He couldn’t move his limbs or torso at all; only his fear-filled eyes could barely move a little.
He struggled to move his eyeballs, looking ahead.
Immediately, his face changed drastically!
He saw an exceptionally beautiful woman in a black and yellow long dress standing up.
One jade-like hand was quietly placed at her lower abdomen.
The other hand was raised, with five fingers forming a virtual grip.
Her eyes were emotionless, and her delicate face carried a hint of coldness.
“It’s her?”
Feng Daji was greatly shocked!
He remembered the two buckets of hot water that floated into the tent during delivery before.
“So, Bai Xianwu sent you?”
Fei Yan spoke indifferently, her voice as cold as a machine.
Just now, Feng Daji mentioned the three words “General Bai”, leaving no doubt about the answer.
“You… you’ll never get any clues from me.”
It seemed as if an iron hand was clutching his throat, making it difficult for him to breathe and causing his face to turn purple.
Fei Yan’s face remained expressionless, and her jade fingers gently pinched.
Crack!
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound.
Feng Daji’s right arm twisted like a pretzel.
The long spear in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
“Ah…uh!”
Before Feng Daji could finish screaming, he felt the iron hand clamping his throat again, cutting off the latter part of his scream.
The surrounding soldiers turned their heads to look at Fei Yan.
They saw that this once gentle and beautiful woman now had a cold and murderous look.
If she was like a fairy before,
then now, she was a female demon from the Asura hell.
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
Such a dignified and elegant woman turned out to be incredibly terrifying!
Fei Yan had never shown anger in her life.
Having killed so many people, she had never exhibited such a strong killing intent as she did today.
For her, killing someone was done with a flick of the hand.
Why be angry at someone destined to die?
That’s why she could kill with such calmness.
As if casually plucking a weed by the roadside.
But today, she was enraged!
This man first tried to poison her, and after being exposed, charged straight at Li Mo.
Touching her weak spot twice, Fei Yan had already lost control of her emotions.
Yan Lingji turned her head, her eyes widened in shock at her.
Even she was scared, her heart pounded rapidly.
Fei Yan always appeared dignified, elegant, and gentle in front of them.
As if she would never get angry.
But now that she’s angry, she’s terrifying!
“Oh my goodness~”
Yan Lingji stuck out her tongue, moving closer to Li Mo.
She regretted smacking her butt the previous few nights.
What if she got mad? She could kill someone with her anger!
She wouldn’t dare to smack it again.
At most… at most, she would smack softly, making sure not to hurt her!
“What is your superior’s contact information?”
Fei Yan asked again, her voice still cold.
“Ha…ha… Go ahead and kill me if you dare!”
Feng Daji felt the iron hand clutching his throat loosen as he forced out a few words.
Fei Yan’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, her gaze filled with murderous intent.
Her jade fingers gently trembled a few times.
Crack~Crack~Crack~
A series of crisp sounds could be heard.
Feng Daji’s left arm was broken inch by inch like a ruler.
The intense pain drained the color from his face.
Large beads of sweat covered his pale cheeks.
Yet, his throat seemed blocked, unable to make any sound.
“Show mercy!”
At this moment, Meng Tian suddenly spoke up.
Seeing that Feng Daji was barely breathing, Meng Tian knew if Fei Yan killed him, their clues would end.
As soon as he finished speaking, Fei Yan cast a cold glance at him.
The most enticing mouth uttered the most ruthless words.
“Those who plead for him, die.”
Even Meng Tian, who was accustomed to the slaughter and death of the battlefield, felt a chill run down his spine.
He was certain that if he didn’t explain clearly, this woman would definitely kill him too!
That look held no regard for kin or relationships.
Meng Tian instinctively swallowed hard and explained, “Madam, don’t misunderstand. I have interrogation methods in the army that will surely get results.”
Hearing this, Fei Yan retracted her fierce gaze from him.
Indifferently, she said, “There’s not much time.”
This Feng Daji had perseverance beyond ordinary people, and even if they were to interrogate him, who knew how many days it would take?
However, Li Mo’s plan was to figure everything out before they entered the pass tomorrow.
Couldn’t speak? Did he think she had no way of finding out?
Meng Tian was left speechless, opening and closing his mouth without saying more.
At this time, it was best not to say too much.
Anyone could see that this woman had already lost control!
Even the Yin-Yang School members coming to stop her would die!
Oh, National Master, what kind of wife have you found!
Hurry up, your wife has lost it, and no one dares to advise her!
If you don’t intervene, this person will be tortured to death.”
Meng Tian kept signaling to Li Mo with his eyes, seemingly forgetting that Li Mo couldn’t see it.
Li Mo clearly sensed Meng Tian’s gaze.
But he remained unmoved.
Madam is in a bad mood right now; why should I force her to suppress her anger?
If she killed him, so be it. At worst, they won’t ask anything.
It didn’t affect the situation much.
Most importantly, he believed that Fei Yan had her own discretion.
Dangling in mid-air, Feng Daji’s body convulsed violently as the intense pain reddened his eyes.
Being broken to pieces would feel just like this!
Suddenly, his trembling body began to move through the air.
A jade finger enlarged in his eyes, finally lightly tapping on his sweat-covered forehead.
A faint light glowed at her fingertip.
Feng Daji seemed to have his soul extracted, becoming stiff and immobile in mid-air.
The glow at her fingertip didn’t last long.
As the light faded, Fei Yan lowered her hands.
The vacant-eyed Feng Daji fell to the ground like a sack with a thud.
Fei Yan’s face turned slightly pale, but she let out a relieved breath.
Affected by the side effects of the Soul Exchange Technique, her delicate body swayed slightly.
At that moment, a warm touch suddenly covered her soft waist.
“Madam, please sit down and rest.”
Li Mo held Fei Yan’s waist, helping her to sit down.
Fei Yan turned her head, and the murderous intent in her eyes receded like a tide.
The frost on her face melted away instantly.
Filled with tenderness, she smiled sweetly and said, “Fei Yan is alright.”
Although the Soul Exchange Technique had side effects, it didn’t harm her with her current strength.
After a moment of fatigue, she quickly recovered.
Sensing her calming breath, Li Mo still forcibly sat her down.
Fei Yan didn’t resist, obediently sitting down.
Then she softly said, “Really, it’s nothing.”
Li Mo poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, gently saying, “Drink a little.”
Fei Yan obediently lowered her head and took a small sip.
Li Mo’s concern filled her heart with sweetness.
Even the tea she sipped tasted sweet.
Considering this, she couldn’t help but smile at the corners of her mouth.
Meng Tian and the soldiers all had expressions like they’d seen a ghost.
Was this blissfully happy woman, who looked like a little lady, the same as the demoness from earlier?
How outrageous!!!
Only the National Advisor could subdue her.
Meng Tian retracted his gaze and looked at Feng Daji, motionless on the ground.
He asked, “Is he dead?”
Li Mo shook his head, “Not dead, just dumbfounded.”
Fei Yan had held nothing back earlier.
The Soul Transfer Technique had invaded Feng Daji’s brain.
While extracting the information, the domineering energy also destroyed his nerves.
“Ah, what a pity.”
Meng Tian sighed softly.
He didn’t know Fei Yan had used the Soul Transfer Technique and thought that with Feng Daji’s dementia, the clues were lost.
Li Mo, however, smiled and said, “My wife has already learned what she needed to know.”
Meng Tian’s eyes lit up again, and his gaze fell once more on Fei Yan, who was sipping water bit by bit.
Surprised, he said, “She knows?”
Li Mo nodded, “The Yin-Yang School has a Soul Transfer Technique that can peek into a person’s secrets.”
“But the consequence is this, leaving the person demented.”
The soldiers who had come with Feng Daji suddenly felt a wave of fear.
If that red-robed demoness had not used her illusions, but instead let the yellow-robed demoness use the Soul Transfer Technique on them,
Would they all have become idiots by now?
Meng Tian was stunned for a moment, then he sighed, “The techniques of the Yin-Yang School are indeed… cough, mysterious!”
He almost slipped and said venomous.
But changed his words instantly when he saw Fei Yan’s gaze.
Are you trying to provoke a rift between me and my husband by saying my techniques are venomous?
“In that case, what are the National Advisor’s next steps?”
Meng Tian tried to avoid looking at Fei Yan.
This woman was too terrifying!
The National Advisor was easier to talk to!
Li Mo pondered for a moment, then turned to Fei Yan and asked, “Madam, can you turn him into a puppet?”
He recalled Fei Yan mentioning that she knew a little bit of puppet technique.
Puppet technique, a technique even more sinister than the Soul Transfer Technique.
Fei Yan slightly lowered her head, her white teeth gently biting the rim of her cup.
Her beautiful eyes twinkled as she softly said, “I know a little, I can try.”
Li Mo nodded, “Then give it a try, there’s no pressure if it doesn’t work.”
Fei Yan: “Hmm~”
She put down her cup and stood up again.
Her hand grasped in the air.
With a crack, Feng Daji’s neck twisted, and he died.
Meng Tian was stunned.
Fei Yan calmly said, “Only the dead can be made into puppets.”
Meng Tian nodded, keeping his thoughts to himself the whole time.
With this woman, the fewer words exchanged, the better.
She could change her attitude faster than flipping a book!
Fei Yan closed her eyes and took a light breath.
When she reopened them, her demeanor became solemn.
Her jade-like hands moved in front of her, forming complex hand seals.
Her hands moved so swiftly that they left afterimages, dazzling everyone.
With each completed hand seal, yellow runes appeared in front of her.
These runes orderly entered Feng Daji’s body.
With each rune, his body shook slightly.
This process lasted about half a stick of incense.
Suddenly, Fei Yan formed the final hand seal, holding her hands steady in front of her.
Her eyes fixed intently on Feng Daji, her red lips murmuring rapidly.
The chants were inaudible.
“Rise!”
Finally, she uttered the word clearly.
A radiance flashed over Feng Daji’s lifeless body.
Then his body began to tremble violently.
As if controlled by invisible strings.
His broken arms seemed to reconnect with the strings, slowly correcting themselves.
After a moment of trembling, his body stopped.
Then, to everyone’s horror, he slowly got up.
His eyelids twitched before he opened his eyes and knelt before Li Mo, cupping his hands.
“Greetings, National Advisor.”
Fei Yan turned around and smiled sweetly at Li Mo.
“Husband, it worked.”
Perceiving Feng Daji, who was no different from ordinary people, even his voice was the same as before.
Li Mo pursed his lips.
“Mm.. Honey is really great.”
Just a little bit?
Is this what you call a little bit?
