Chapter 454: Linglong made a sound and the pill came out
“Report!” A guard rushed to the hall. Before he could kneel down, he said hurriedly, “A group of Taoist priests are outside the hall, challenging us, saying…”

The next words seemed very indecent, and the guard was in a dilemma, not knowing whether to say it or not.

But how could Yinghua stand it? She hated it most when people told her to keep half and half.

“Useless thing! What did you say?”

“Tell… tell…” The guard hesitated, and suddenly made up his mind: “The Demon Lord is hiding in the palace. I’m afraid he is a coward. If you have the guts, go out and have a good fight…”

The guard finished his words very quickly, as if he was in a hurry to be reincarnated, for fear that if he spoke too slowly, the good family would be robbed.

“what?!”

Yinghua was furious and stepped forward, raising her hand to hit the guard. The guard closed his eyes and quickly explained:
“General, spare my life. It wasn’t me who said that. It was the Taoist priests outside who said that!”

“Get off!”

Yinghuan kicked the guard angrily, and the guard crawled out of the palace.

“Yo~”

Just as she was about to turn around and report back, a long string of notes sounded at an extremely inopportune moment. The tune was so loud that it was almost two miles away. When she heard it, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

It’s that damned tone again. I know who it is without having to think.

“Ah! How come there’s a Taoist priest in the palace? He’s even in front of the palace gate,” Lingxiang said, sighing, imitating the drama master, pretending to be at a loss: “Oh my, what should I do?”

Shut your mouth!
Huanhuan glanced at the pretentious Lingxiang and bowed to the Demon Lord.

“Your Majesty, those bird Taoist priests are so arrogant that they actually bullied us. If that’s the case, there’s no point in sitting back and watching. I beg you to capture those Taoist priests and avenge the Demon Lord.”

A sneer came again at an inopportune moment, and the tone was as if someone had heard a huge joke.

“What are you laughing at?” Huanhuan was so angry that she didn’t care about the etiquette of respect and hierarchy.

Besides, Yinghuan had never revered Lingxiang as a master. She despised Lingxiang from the bottom of her heart.

“Of course I’m laughing at you for talking so irrationally.”

“What do you mean?”

“Means nothing.”

“What do you mean it’s not interesting?”

“It’s literally true.”

Yinghuan frowned, took a step forward, but then realized something was wrong and quickly stepped back.

Damn girl! Are you still quibbling with me?
Lingxiang smiled contemptuously again: “What do you mean? It’s so simple, but the general doesn’t understand it? Has the general never been to school?” She said with an understanding look: “No wonder, after all, the general is not a human, it’s normal that he can’t understand human language.”

hiss!
There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with what he said, but why does it sound so unpleasant?

“Then please teach me, Princess.” Yinghuan reluctantly pretended to bow.

I want to see what kind of teeth can come out of your dog’s mouth.

Lingxiang sighed, as if reluctantly:
“We humans value reciprocity the most.”

“The demons have been guests to Yuanqing three times, so Yuanqing naturally cannot lose his manners. Otherwise, if the news gets out, how will this great sect survive in the Dao world in the future?”

“Besides, life can only last long if there is give and take, right?”

What a mess! Bullshit!
A mere mortal is worthy of being compared with the demons? How ridiculous!
The bitch’s son is indeed a bitch, full of fallacies and heresies, spreading mischief!

Yinghuan glanced at Lingxiang with disgust. She was too lazy to even argue with Lingxiang and asked the Demon Lord for help again.

But Lingxiang seemed to have heard a huge joke. She laughed so hard that she fell backwards in an exaggerated and artificial manner, without paying any attention to the Demon Lord who was present.

“I’m afraid the general must have said this more than once or twice, right? But every time the general wanted to take my life, he was defeated by me in the end. Not to mention that he was beaten by Wuyang and his true identity was revealed. What kind of nonsense is this ‘I will definitely not fail in my mission’?” Upon hearing this, Yinghuan panicked immediately, and the Demon Lord also frowned.

The Demon Lord looked very displeased. He valued Lingxiang very much. After all, he still needed her to refine the “Return to Heaven”. How could he possibly take her life?

But Yinghuan pretended to obey but secretly disobeyed, and now that the plan has failed, she is naturally panicked.

After the Demon Lord took over Ling Xiao’s body, he became moody. Yinghuan knew his temper very well.

Damn girl, this is going to kill her!
Lingxiang watched everything leisurely, unable to suppress the smile on her lips.

When Yinghuan took a wrong glance, she saw the proud Lingxiang and almost couldn’t suppress the urge to kill.

Just as the Demon Lord was examining Yinghua lying on the ground, the Great Situ, who was watching coldly, suddenly spoke.

“The attempt to murder the princess is a heinous crime and should be punished with the death penalty in order to maintain the dignity of the royal family.”

After hearing this, Yinghuan became even more furious.

This old man actually adds insult to injury!
But Lingxiang heard a different meaning in these words.

Murder is murder, what is “intention”? The crime is so heinous, why do we need “actual evidence”? If it should be dealt with, then it should be dealt with. Isn’t “should” redundant? If we want to maintain dignity, why do we need to say “only then”?
This old man is quite good at talking. If I’m not mistaken, the latter part is his real intention.

“But the current situation is worrying. With a powerful enemy at hand, there are only a few people available. If we convict him now, we will be cutting off our own wings.”

Lingxiang remained silent and waited for what was to come.

“In my humble opinion, it is better to record this matter first. When General Yiyou quells the rebellion of the Taoist sect, it can be regarded as a compensation for his merits and demerits.”

Sure enough, it’s a good idea to first suppress and then praise. I admire it. It turns out that the older you are, the more experienced you are.

Yinghuan kowtowed repeatedly, repeating the words of forgiveness.

I used to be very angry with Da Situ, but after hearing these words, I felt that he was not so hateful anymore.

Old radishes are not necessarily all bad.

“Although this method may be a little unfair to the princess, I think the princess will be able to consider the overall situation and show some understanding.”

Lingxiang smiled without saying anything, glanced at the Demon Lord who was in deep thought, and immediately understood.

I originally wanted to kill Yinghuan today to remove some burdens from the Taoist sect, but now a great Situ suddenly appeared.

It seems that this scourge, Huanhuan, cannot be killed today.

Forget it, forget it. If you sow the seeds, you will reap the fruits in the future.

Besides, it is still unknown whether this group of demons will have a future!
Well, I’ll just sell it for now, and I can live a more comfortable life the rest of the time.

“Oh~ I just said it casually, why are you accusing me of a crime? What’s the big picture? It’s just a joke, why take it so seriously? It’s scary.”

Lingxiang said this as she stirred the charcoal fire in the alchemy furnace – it looked like the elixir was about to come out.

“That’s all in the past. General Yiyou has served me well during the past two years as a slave. I am very satisfied with him. How can I blame him?”

He raised an eyebrow and looked at Da Situ.

“And now that I’ve said that, I can’t refuse the Grand Master’s preference. I’m doing you a favor, so you can’t deny it!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Da Situ didn’t say anything, but Yinghuan’s eyes widened.

What does “the Grand Master’s preference” mean? How could she possibly hook up with this old man?

Damn girl! You actually slandered me!
Just as Yinghuan was about to get angry, she heard a dull sound coming from the alchemy furnace. Everyone’s eyes immediately focused on her, and the Demon Lord’s gaze was even more blazing.

This is……

The pill is out!
