Now This Is a Madwoman
"Huh?" Feixiao was clearly taken aback by the answer.
Illusion Moon snorted dismissively, "A virgin wife is truly unheard of."
"That's because Liu Bai usually likes to take unconventional paths," Yelan without flinching.
Anyway, these two were obviously recruited by Liu Bai.
They're not enemies, so what can they do if they're exposed?
"..."
Yelan's confident answer left Illusion Moon speechless.
Illusion Moon considered himself capable of countless transformations and manipulating countless people's hearts, but a woman as shameless as the one before him was quite rare.
At this moment, Liu Bai's door was opened again, and this time a black-haired fox came out.
... According to Guinaifen, fox spirits in the universe should be called Foxian?
"The Shogun and the Grand Prince are blocking the entrance..."
"Of course we're waiting for you, Tingyun, since we came together." Feixiao laughed heartily. "Ah, Miss Yelan, let me introduce you. My name is Feixiao, this is Illusion Moon, this is Tingyun, and this is Miss Yelan, who seems to be Lord Liu Bai's wife."
Tingyun looked slightly surprised, but still nodded.
Yelan, on the other hand, stood tall and proud, with an expression that said, "That's right, it's me."
"I'm probably the only person in the universe who is being waited for by both the Xianzhou General and the Lord of Destruction, right?"
"It's alright. The person standing in front of you might be the only person in the universe who survived facing the Nihility Emissary a blade."
Seeing that Tingyun didn't want to talk to her, Yelan struck up a conversation and patted Tingyun's shoulder affectionately.
"Void... Oh, La Signora Acheron." Feixiao immediately recognized the person.
She couldn't discern much, but she could clearly sense the aura of a powerful figure emanating from Acheron.
Illusion Moon remained silent.
She hated the Acheron —or rather, she loathed the feeling of being destroyed.
No, when applied to the Acheron, it should be called "annihilation".
"Is that so?" Tingyun was adept at handling Yelan's overly familiar manner and subtly avoided Yelan's claws.
(Unsolicited kindness is always suspicious; there's no smoke without fire.)
Yelan didn't put her arm around Tingyun's shoulder, nor did she show any other expression; she still wore a smile.
"Speaking of which, the three of you came together, so why did you come out later, Tingyun?"
"Lord Liu Bai instructed me on some matters," Tingyun replied with a slight bow, a strange expression on her face.
"Lord Liu Bai told me to protect my neck and not to provoke Illusion Moon."
Tingyun was a little confused about these things.
Provoking Illusion Moon?
Is she crazy or is the world crazy?
Although the Xianzhou and the Antimatter Legion are also enemies, when a Lord of Destruction personally lowers himself to show goodwill, the Xianzhou, if not to reciprocate, will at least cease fire to see what the other party is planning to do.
Despite being enemies, Xianzhou didn't really want to get involved with lunatics like the Antimatter Legion.
Because once a war breaks out, it can easily turn into a full-scale war where Emanator fight each other—for example, the historical battles between Yaoqing, Zhuming Fanghu Xianzhou, and Celenova.
So how could a weak woman like her, who couldn't even kill a chicken, have the guts to provoke Illusion Moon?
Even if someone were to provoke someone, it would General Feixiao who would dare to do so, right?
After all, Feixiao is Yaoqing's general.
"...It really doesn't make any sense, does it?" Feixiao glanced at Illusion Moon.
Feixiao felt that these words were not meant for Tingyun to hear, but rather were meant for Tingyun to relay.
"What are you looking at me for? Do you really think I would lay a hand on such an ant?"
Illusion Moon's voice turned cold.
"Of course I don't think so," Feixiao immediately laughed it off.
To be honest, Feixiao thinks Illusion Moon might actually do that.
Because this person is not a fighter, he won't specifically target the toughest opponents like other Lord of Destruction.
It's perfectly normal to start with the weak—but Feixiao wouldn't be that lacking in emotional intelligence.
"Are there still people inside?" Feixiao changed the subject. "The judge from Luofu?"
"They are catching up with their sisters. If there's no rush, I think it would be better to wait a bit." Tingyun bowed slightly.
This group consists of her, Feixiao, Illusion Moon, and Hanya.
You could say they were lucky; the three of Xianzhou native, and there weren't many barriers between them.
It's just that Illusion Moon is too heavyweight.
"Illusion Moon, what do you think?"
"I don't care."
Feixiao gave him face, and Illusion Moon returned the favor by giving Feixiao face in return.
Feixiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, it's Illusion Moon who's standing here.
Based on his disgusted impression, Feixiao thought the Antimatter Legion were lunatics on par with the Denizens of Abundance —although this was not much different from the general public's opinion.
In reality, the Grand Lords of the Antimatter Legion are all quite intelligent—or rather, strategically minded.
However, this did not prevent Feixiao from breathing a slight sigh of relief.
"Then I'll have to trouble Lord Illusion Moon to bear with us."
"Um."
Illusion Moon.
Yelan, who was standing next to her, felt like she was being isolated, but she didn't know how to join in.
After all, they all looked incredibly arrogant, and only Tingyun in front of them was relatively approachable—which is why Yelan reached out to put her arm around his shoulder earlier.
Yelan wouldn't dare do that to the two people next to her.
Moreover, Yelan felt that Illusion Moon's gaze would occasionally sweep over her.
(... Although I admit I'm conspicuous, I'm still just an ant, right?)
Yelan is under a lot of pressure.
However, Illusion Moon didn't actually have any particular thoughts—she was just looking for a body to fit into.
Of course, this doesn't mean we should attack Yelan.
This is purely a professional habit.
Let's see if a mortal's identity is suitable for causing trouble.
Well, watching and stirring up trouble are both professional habits.
However, Illusion Moon is not stupid. She has a purpose in causing trouble, so she doesn't actually have any intention of causing trouble for Liu Bai right now.
"By the way, Illusion Moon, now that we're working together, could you share some information about the rest of you?"
Feixiao took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Illusion Moon, making no attempt to hide his desire to gather information.
"Oh... you really dare to say that."
Illusion Moon looked at Feixiao.
She had a very good impression of Feixiao, the general who gave her a lot of face.
So even though it was a threatening tone, Illusion Moon had a slight smile on his face.
"Do you need information about Celenova?"
"If you'd like to speak."
Feixiao laughed along with Illusion Moon.
"Although I'd love to tell you... our relationship isn't that close." Illusion Moon smiled and shook her head. "But Celenova... is still easy to encounter."
"I would prefer to catch him off guard."
"Hmph... revenge, huh?"
Illusion Moon didn't take it to heart.
Now that destruction is far removed from her reach, Illusion Moon behaves somewhat rebelliously.
"If we want to deal with Celenova, I would recommend fishing it out of the blue. It should be regretting its previous failure."
"I'm afraid what we catch might not be Antimatter Legion."
Fishing on the Xianzhou is easy and brings Denizens of Abundance.
This is quite frustrating.
Especially when a fight breaks out, it often happens on their own turf, which makes things even more difficult.
The lives of the Denizens of Abundance are worthless, but the lives of the Xianzhou native are!
The Xianzhou is now actually very "avoiding unnecessary battles," but unfortunately, the Denizens of Abundance gather every thousand or eight hundred years to fight them to the death.
The Xianzhou is also disgusting. Even though we are the avenging side, we are basically on the defensive in every major battle.
In the three wars of the Denizens of Abundance, except for the first one where Celenova led his Antimatter Legion to tear apart the Wingweavers and destroy their Wingweavers (because it was a dogfight, Xianzhou watched the whole thing without getting involved), in the other two wars, Xianzhou was on the defensive and was at a disadvantage in both.
"Then that has nothing to do with me."
Illusion Moon glanced at her fingernails, seemingly nonchalant.
"It's a bit too early to be thinking about these things now."
"Rational."
Feixiao slightly suppressed his smile, revealing a somewhat learned expression.
A short while later, Xueyi and the two sisters, Hanya, came out.
As expected, the two women were slightly startled when they saw a general and a king waiting for them. Even though they were both expressionless, they were still a little frightened.
Then, Xueyi nodded slightly to Yelan as a greeting.
"General, Your Majesty, is there anything else you two would like to discuss with Lord Liu Bai?" Xueyi asked.
"I still have some things to discuss, you can go ahead."
Illusion Moon spoke up.
"Business?"
"It's a private matter, General, you don't need to meddle so much." Illusion Moon was still looking at his fingernails, not even glancing at Feixiao.
However, the tone was already quite polite.
"Alright, see you tomorrow, Lord Illusion Moon." Feixiao nodded.
After watching Feixiao leave, Illusion Moon glanced at Yelan, who was still standing there, and said with a half-smile:
"Aren't you also here to see Lord Liu Bai?"
Chapter 360 This is the real madman
"Illusion Moon, is there anything else?"
Liu Bai, who was chatting with Acheron Cocoilia, saw Illusion Moon walk in again, followed by Yelan, and immediately interrupted their conversation.
Although Illusion Moon had his reasons for obeying his orders, he was, after all, a highly intelligent villain with a rather eccentric personality.
The Acheron can suppress evil spirits for a time, but ultimately cannot suppress them forever.
Therefore, Liu Bai doesn't mind giving Illusion Moon more attention now in order to bring the two of them closer.
