Full-Scale War and Soul Annihilation

The situation is quite awkward. The baby girl never expected that there would be a Entering Sainthood Ninth Grade outside after she came out. It's unbelievable.

"Why are you bringing a child out?" Chief Mu glanced at Liu Qingfeng, not taking it seriously, and looked at the baby girl in Xu Bai's arms.

The next moment, Chief Mu's eyes widened suddenly.

"A demonic body, a human soul—what kind of filthy thing is this?"

He almost shouted it out loud; even with his keen eyesight, this was the first time he had ever seen such a strange thing.

Xu Bai coughed and recounted the entire process of the Demon-Strange Entity Market. When he mentioned Liu Qingfeng's actions, Chief Mu took a deep breath.

"Hiss--"

This feeling has nothing to do with strength, nor with age or personality; it's a unified feeling of utmost admiration.

"You were so bold back then that you turned yourself into this, and now you're bold enough to do that kind of thing." Chief Mu looked at Liu Qingfeng and said, "You're truly something else. By the way, is it really possible for this to be born?"

Xu Bai's lips twitched. "How would I know? I was just saying I'd ask you, thinking you knew."

"I'm just a Qi Fortune Master, at most a very strong Qi Fortune Master. How could I possibly know everything?" Chief Mu said, spreading his hands.

This thing is completely beyond human comprehension. If you think about it carefully, there is a human and a demon, and then the two of them do some things and have a child. The child's body is that of a demon, but its soul is that of a human.

What is all this nonsense?! Xu Bai looked down at the baby girl. "Come on, it's your turn to explain. I went through all the trouble of bringing you here, you can't just leave without saying a word, can you? See this old man over there? He's extremely cruel."

The baby girl looked at Xu Bai with innocent eyes, made two soft "ah ah" sounds, but didn't say anything.

Xu Bai shook his head and said, "Your eyes gave you away from the start. Stop pretending. There's no point in pretending anymore. Otherwise, do you really want to die?"

Upon hearing this, the baby girl finally shut her mouth. Then, her innocent eyes gradually changed, revealing a sense of vicissitude.

"Oh..."

A child's laughter rang out, and the baby girl finally spoke.

"If I said I never intended to harm you, would you believe me?"

"I don't believe you." Xu Bai answered decisively, "First, you have to tell me what exactly you are."

"I am Sun Lan," the baby girl said.

Xu Bai: "???"

Sun Lan?

Chief Sun? If she is Sun Lan, then who was she who we met before? This is getting more and more confusing. Xu Bai pondered for a long time, then his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of something.

"You've come out of the Demon-Strange Entity Market!"

Based on all the information he had received, this was the only possible outcome he could think of.

When he asked the question, the baby girl nodded directly.

"That's right, I'm the only one in the entire Ghost Market who can use this method."

"From now on, I can grow up like a human being; to be precise, I am a human being."

"I know you want to know all this, so I'll tell you everything."

This was the first time Xu Bai had ever seen a demon cooperate so readily.

Actually, not cooperating is not an option either, because if they find out, not cooperating will only lead to certain death.

Not to mention Chief Mu, even Xu Bai could easily manipulate her.

As Sun Lan recounted her story, everything slowly unfolded.

After hearing this, Xu Bai only had one word to say.

--show!

This story begins with Sun Lan's unusual circumstances. She died while pregnant with a baby girl and transformed into a demon.

After her death, she kept thinking about how to get out of the Demon-Strange Entity Market.

Finally, she saw Liu Qingfeng and came up with a brilliant idea.

Sun Lan is a demon, and her profession is a demon soul master.

The defining characteristic of this profession is that it allows the soul to leave the body and possess another person's physical body.

When she saw that Liu Qingfeng had no soul, she thought of taking over Liu Qingfeng's body and then using Liu Qingfeng to get out.

But she was no match for him, so she tried everything she could to arouse Liu Qingfeng's instincts, and the two spent a passionate night together on the mountaintop.

Unexpectedly, when she was about to swallow Liu Qingfeng's body, she discovered that Liu Qingfeng's body had a large hole in it, and no soul could stay inside for long.

Fortunately, she managed to escape quickly in the critical moment, thus saving her life.

After that night, Liu Qingfeng also left. Unexpectedly, she unexpectedly established a spiritual connection with the fetus in her womb.

The fetus has a spiritual connection with the human body and can freely switch between different states. Moreover, when the human soul enters the fetus, it is actually a human soul.

However, if the fetus were to be transported out, the person would be completely powerless.

She then thought of Liu Qingfeng. If Liu Qingfeng Liu Qingfeng to take the fetus out, he would surely take care of it based on his instincts.

But to everyone's surprise, Liu Qingfeng disappeared without a trace.

She had been enduring it, but she couldn't bear it any longer. The baby girl was born, but she was rejected by the Demon-Strange Entity Market.

Fortunately, thanks to the demon's body and her use of her Demon Heart to stabilize the situation, everything calmed down. After that, what happened to Xu Bai and the others took place.

Xu Bai couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder he's an old man who's lived for so many years, he still has such a method."

"Now that you've said your piece, go die."

The news has been received, and there's no need to keep her around.

This thing is essentially a monster, so why keep it?

"Wait!" Sun Lan interrupted, "I now possess a human soul, so I am no longer a demon, nor do I feel any aversion to the living. Moreover, I am of use to you!"

"Oh?" Xu Bai stroked his chin. "What's its function?"

Sun Lan answered quickly, afraid that if she answered too late, Xu Bai would snap her neck, "The Ghost Market and the Human World will have a war sooner or later, it's just a matter of time. But I know a lot of secret information about the Ghost Market, and I can do good for the Human World!"

Xu Bai: "..."

When Sun Lan uttered those words, Xu Bai felt increasingly uncomfortable listening to them.

He looked at Chief Mu Chief Mu, as if asking him how to handle the situation.

This matter should involve the Bureau of Surveillance, and has nothing to do with him.

Chief Mu said, "Leave it to me."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Sun Lan spoke up.

"He's terrifying, I don't want to be with him!"

This person is Entering Sainthood Ninth Grade, and there are only nine such individuals in the entire Demon-Strange Entity Market. Sun Lan does not want to fall into his hands.

"You have no choice." Chief Mu took the baby girl and said, "But don't worry, I always keep my word. As long as you are of use to us, we will not only not kill you, but will also give you the same treatment."

"Really?" Sun Lan asked.

"Does it matter whether it's real or fake? You're already in such a state." Chief Mu didn't answer, but his words revealed the point.

Sun Lan stopped talking; she knew this was her only way out.

Beside him, Liu Qingfeng was still suppressed by the aura, his face blank with a dazed expression.

"Kill him?" Chief Mu asked.

Xu Bai shook his head, indicating that he didn't need it.

In the past, Xu Bai would have agreed, after all, this guy was an unstable individual who had even attacked him before.

But things are different now. With Xu Bai's Overturning Heaven Blade Technique, he can completely control the situation, so keeping it around is still useful.

For example, Liu Qingfeng played a key role in the Demon-Strange Entity Market not long ago, so let's keep him for now.

Chief Mu didn't say anything and withdrew the luck.

Driven by instinct, Liu Qingfeng fled at top speed.

Another person was missing. Xu Bai looked at the Demon Heart in the baby girl's hand and took it.

Is this it?

This is the key to this trip; putting everything else aside, for Xu Bai, this is the real gain.

Chief Mu glanced at it and nodded. "As long as the Evil Eye is inserted into it, it will be successful."

"But I must remind you that if you want Evil Eye to unleash its power to slay Extraordinary Rank 9, you can only make one strike. After that, the sword will cease to exist."

Xu Bai knew, but he didn't say anything.

Compared to Eunuch Wei's life, this priceless sword is nothing special.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai drew the Evil Eye from his waist, placed the Demon Heart on the blade, and forcefully inserted it.

The next moment, Xu Bai saw the Demon Heart turn into blood and merge into the blade.

"It's done!" Chief Mu laughed. "Now give the luck back to me."

Xu Bai felt something being drawn out of his body—the destiny of the Great Chu Kingdom.

"So, I can then break through to the Entering Sainthood Ninth Grade?" Xu Bai examined the Evil Eye in his hand and asked, "How do I operate it?"

"Do you see the eyes above?" Chief Mu said, "Just transfer your power into them and unleash the strongest strike of your life, and that will be enough."

I see.

Xu Bai murmured something to himself and then sheathed the knife.

"It's still early. You and Eunuch Wei can go together then, and we'll definitely be able to kill him," said Chief Mu.

"Sigh, if it weren't for the fact that Eunuch Wei is not good at swordsmanship, and that other people who are good at swordsmanship would have a hard time fully controlling the chaos of this sword, I wouldn't want you to get involved."

"But we can't let Eunuch Wei know about this, otherwise he will definitely not let you go, because he's worried you'll be in danger."

Xu Bai agreed, saying he would act discreetly.

"Ahem, the treasure I gave you..." Chief Mu kindly reminded him.

Before I went in, he gave me a one-time treasure that would temporarily grant me the strength of a Saint of the Third Rank.

Judging from the situation, it seems Xu Bai is useless.

"Sigh..." Xu Bai sighed, "This trip was extremely dangerous, I've already used all my resources."

"Aren't you just lying through your teeth? I can sense my strength with ease. Give it to me now." Chief Mu stretched out his hand.

Xu Bai turned and left. "Don't even think about it, just consider it as travel expenses for this trip."

Chief Mu: "..."

In the end, Xu Bai still did not hand over the item.

With his business done and nothing else to do, Xu Bai left the place, Chief Mu also left with Sun Lan.

Having resolved such a major issue, Xu Bai finally felt relieved, and his steps became much lighter.

Back at his residence, Ye Zi had already returned to the Imperial Treasury. Xu Bai didn't disturb her, letting her learn more.

Suddenly, he felt like he had nothing to do again.

He originally wanted to go have a drink with Eunuch Wei, but the matter of the knife had to be kept secret. Eunuch Wei was a shrewd old man, and it wouldn't be good if he found out.

"What should I do?"

"Find the Ninth Princess? No way. The Ninth Princess seems to be starving and thirsty right now. I might end up being eaten alive."

"Oh, right! There's one more thing, and this might be the key to my survival in the future!"

Xu Bai suddenly remembered something, clapped his hands vigorously, and walked towards the door.

After leaving his temporary lodgings, he did not linger but went directly to the emperor's Imperial Study.

No one stopped him along the way, and he arrived at the door smoothly. Before he could even knock, he heard voices from inside.

"Come in."

The Chu Emperor's voice sounded somewhat tired, as if he hadn't slept for several nights.

Xu Bai straightened his clothes, pushed the door open and entered, then closed it behind him, pausing slightly in surprise.

The room was filled with all sorts of books.

The Chu Emperor was flipping through the pages continuously.

"Wait a moment, let me finish organizing these documents first. After all, war is about to break out, and there are many things to deal with."

He didn't even look up; he was still flipping through the pages.

Xu Bai nodded, found a place to sit down, and waited patiently.

After about half an hour, the Chu Emperor finally raised his head and turned his gaze to Xu Bai.

"I already know. I'm relieved that this matter has been resolved."

As the top leader of the Great Chu Kingdom, he naturally had excellent information access, even faster than Xu Bai himself.

"You don't need to return the jade pendant; consider it a reward," the Chu Emperor said again.

Listen to that, now that's what you call grandeur.

Look at the emperor, and then look at Chief Mu. How can there be such a big difference between people?

Xu Bai smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I have come here today with another matter that I would like to request Your Majesty's permission."

The Chu Emperor frowned and asked, "What is it?"

"Your Majesty, I wish to borrow a book that can destroy the soul, and the higher the level, the better," Xu Bai replied.

A book that destroys the soul?

The Chu Emperor was slightly surprised, as this was something he hadn't expected.

Now everyone in the world knows that Xu Bai learned a lot of diverse things, but the Chu Emperor doesn't understand why he's learning them.

"In short, this is very important to me, and I must have it," Xu Bai said solemnly.

The Chu Emperor fell into deep thought, and after a moment, nodded in agreement.

"Go back to your place first, and I'll arrange for someone to bring it over soon."

Although he didn't know why Xu Bai wanted this kind of book, he was happy to give it to him, since Xu Bai had risked his life on this trip, so it was a reward.

Xu Bai said no more. Seeing that the Chu Emperor still had many things to attend to, he took his leave.

Returning to his temporary lodgings, it was almost dark. Xu Bai ordered the maid outside to bring out a table of food and wine, and ate and drank alone.

As darkness fell, footsteps sounded, followed soon by the voice of a eunuch.

"Your King Xu, this servant is here on His King Xu."

Xu Bai opened the door and saw a middle-aged eunuch holding a book, which he handed to him.

"Thank you for your trouble."

"It is my honor, Your Highness. I hope that when you meet King Xu Eunuch Wei the future, you will put in a good word for me," the middle-aged eunuch said obsequiously.

"Definitely," Xu Bai replied briefly.

After the eunuch left, he closed the door, returned to his seat, and, using the oil lamp on the table as a light, looked at the golden progress bar above, a slight smile playing on his lips.

What can you do in ten days? You can work on a book, but you have to work on it purposefully and prepare for what will happen next.

He had thought it over carefully and realized that besides the knife, there was another way to save his life: his own cheat code.

However, one cannot always rely on others to attack one's soul, so one must have one's own methods for attacking oneself.

Although it sounds a bit inappropriate to say it this way, it is indeed Xu Bai's idea.

If he were to go to the Great Yue Kingdom again and encounter danger that he couldn't avoid even with the Evil Eye Saber, he would have no choice but to use this method.

From then on, he would have a real trump card.

"Keep going, let's get started!" Xu Bai opened the book and stared intently at it.

The dim oil lamp flickered, and with the help of the light and shadow, the progress bar was slowly increasing.

Time passed slowly.

In the blink of an eye, the two-week deadline is drawing ever closer.

Recently, there have been various rumors circulating.

Especially at the Border Pass, there have been increasing frictions recently, all of which are instigated by the Great Chu Kingdom.

More importantly, the merchants stationed at the Border Pass always felt a tense atmosphere spreading.

Nobody knows, nobody understands, but everyone is worried.

This atmosphere of anxiety lessened the closer they got to the Capital City.

Especially in the Capital City, the people continued their lives as usual, without any sense of tension.

Inside the Imperial Palace in the Capital City.

Xu Bai sat in his temporary lodging and slowly closed the book in front of him.

"Finally... I finished the liver. Thankfully, I made it in time for the crucial moment."

Looking at the pale blue smoke in front of him, Xu Bai smiled.

The pale blue smoke gradually gathered and slowly formed a line of text, which appeared in front of Xu Bai.

[You observe and comprehend the Soul Extermination Art Soul Extermination Art.]

This time, no new text appeared; only pale blue text gradually disappeared, transforming into information that entered Xu Bai's mind.

The latest attribute panel appears before my eyes.

[Name: Xu Bai]

[Realm Level: Transcendent First Rank Loose Cultivator.]

[The Blade Sword Three Absolutes (Transcendent Tier 9): Max Level.]

[Comprehension: Max level.]

The Soul Annihilation Technique skill has a level of 9th rank of the Extraordinary Realm, which Xu Bai estimated should be enough, since he was only at the first rank of the Extraordinary Realm at the moment.

This skill is mainly aimed at attacking the soul. Although it contradicts the "Overturning Earth in his Blade Sword Three Absolutes, this one is a Level 9 Extraordinary skill.

Given his current strength, just like the "Overturning Heaven from the Blade Sword Three Absolutes, he can only use it twice consecutively.

Of course, Xu Bai wasn't foolish enough to try it now. He still clearly remembered the pain, and it wouldn't be worth it if he triggered a cheat ability while trying.

"The time is approaching, the war should be about to begin, right?" Xu Bai thought for a moment, then left without lingering.

Inside the Imperial Palace, the scene remained unchanged, untouched by the impending war.

After Xu Bai looked around and found nothing unusual, he left the Imperial Palace and headed to the Star Plucking Tower.

After navigating various streets and arriving at a secluded spot, Xu Bai looked at the nine-story building in front of him and climbed the stairs all the way up to the ninth floor.

On the ninth floor, Chief Mu was still the same as before, pretending to be playing chess with himself.

When he saw Xu Bai arrive, he didn't even look up. He was holding a chess piece, seemingly deep in thought, but Xu Bai knew that this guy was just pretending.

"Where did Ying Yue go?" Xu Bai asked.

Since returning, that was the night Ying Yue sent him a message, and after that, he knew nothing.

"The war is about to begin. She has a strong talent in intelligence, so she went to attend to her affairs again." After thinking for a long time, Chief Mu finally placed a chess piece, then took out another one from the side and fell into deep thought.

Xu Bai found a seat and sat down. "I'm all ready. When do we leave?"

All the necessary preparations have been made. Xu Bai came here specifically to discuss the follow-up plans.

"No rush, the war won't start for a few more days." Chief Mu put the chess piece back in its place and waved his sleeve.

As he waved his sleeve, the chess pieces on the board automatically separated into black and white, returning to their original baskets.

"Eunuch Wei is still in the Imperial Palace. You can follow him after he sets off." Chief Mu took out a red cloth from his bosom, which was only the width of a finger.

"Tie it to your wrist, and you will be able to block your aura, and even Eunuch Wei will not be able to detect it."

"You have quite a few treasures." Xu Bai took them and casually tied them to his wrist.

Immediately afterwards, he felt as if he had become invisible.

This red cloth has no other function and cannot enhance combat power; it can only conceal oneself, not completely make one invisible, but rather conceal one's aura.

"With this, combined with the Thousand Wonders Myriad Faces Art, it's entirely possible to act silently." Xu Bai pondered, "Why didn't you give me this when I went to the Great Yue Kingdom?"

If we had had this red cloth when we went to the Great Yue Kingdom, it probably would have saved us a lot of trouble.

"Your disguise technique is only effective at concealing the Saintly Realm level; nothing else can be detected. This red cloth cannot hide the Saintly Realm level either," Chief Mu explained.

"So giving it to you would have been useless, but this time it's different. You can't make a move during the whole process except at the very end. I'm just increasing your chances of not being discovered."

Eunuch Wei is very powerful and can exchange one for one with Entering Sainthood Ninth Grade.

However, his true strength is only at the Extraordinary Rank 9.

Therefore, Xu Bai's disguise was able to fool Eunuch Wei, and with the addition of this red cloth, he could be even more certain of success.

"Just follow along, what if I lose them?" Xu Bai asked again.

Chief Mu gave him a strange look. "It doesn't matter whether you get lost or not. Your goal is the same. You just need to go to the capital of the Great Yue Kingdom."

Xu Bai then understood.

Eunuch Wei's goal was to go to the capital to assassinate the emperor, and my goal was also to go to the capital. Since the two were the same, all I had to do was go.

The two chatted for a while longer, focusing on discussing the details of each implementation. Xu Bai did not return to the Imperial Palace but stayed at the Star Plucking Tower.

Several more days have passed.

A major event has occurred! The Great Chu and the Barbarian Tribe have gone to war! This battle came very suddenly, though this suddenness was only felt by the surrounding people.

Once this battle began, all the troops of the Great Chu Kingdom along the Border Pass rushed towards the Barbarian Tribe.

Aside from leaving behind a small number of soldiers, Rising Dusk King led his army to fully invade the Barbarian Tribe.

When war broke out, the most distressed Great Yue Kingdom.

At this time, in the Imperial Palace of the Great Yue Kingdom.

The Emperor of the Great Yue Kingdom looked at the silent ministers below and slammed his fist on the armrest of his dragon throne. "At this crucial moment, you bunch of useless fools just keep silent for me. Prime Minister, do you have any thoughts on this great battle?"

Originally, everyone was doing well, in a three-way balance of power. Although all three forces wanted to eliminate the other, none of them had the opportunity.

However, the situation is different now.

The Great Yue Kingdom was in constant turmoil, and the political landscape was in turmoil.

Meanwhile, the Great Chu Kingdom launched a large-scale invasion of the Barbarian Tribe, leaving the Great Yue Kingdom with only three options.

First, focus on managing your own affairs and don't meddle in other people's business. Concentrate on quelling your own internal strife.

This road has its pros and cons, but it is the most moderate one.

Everyone knows that the Great Chu Kingdom is the strongest. If the Great Yue Kingdom does nothing at this time, the Barbarian Tribe will definitely be doomed.

Secondly, while the Great Chu Kingdom was fully engaged in attacking the Barbarian Tribe, the Great Yue Kingdom launched an attack on the Great Chu Kingdom.

This is a good idea, but what happens next?

They're currently focused on eliminating the Barbarian Tribe, so this stronghold doesn't matter. Even if you take down their stronghold, they'll come back to settle scores with you after they've dealt with the Barbarian Tribe.

And most importantly, if you dare to send troops now, those restless Jianghu people within the Great Yue Kingdom will definitely turn the Great Yue Kingdom upside down.

Third, provide aid to the Barbarian Tribe, at least ensuring that Barbarian Tribe are not wiped out.

Of the three paths, this one is the safest.

There's no need to send a large number of troops; just a portion is enough to make the Barbarian Tribe ' strength equal to that of the Great Chu Kingdom.

Although this would weaken the defense of the Border Pass, it is much better than the second option.

The white-robed Prime Minister Liu Yue, stood below until the emperor asked him a question, at which point he emerged from inside.

"Your Majesty believes that we should help the Barbarian Tribe, maintain the tripartite balance of power, and then seize the time to resolve the internal turmoil within the Great Yue Kingdom."

Upon hearing this, the ministers, who had initially remained silent, all began to echo his sentiments.

The Emperor of the Great Yue Kingdom remained silent, looking at the ministers below who were actively echoing his sentiments. He was also pondering what Liu Yue had just said.

After thinking for a long time, he gently patted the armrest of the dragon throne, quieting the room down.

"There is no time to lose. Issue my decree, ordering Bai Zhong at the Border Pass to lead a contingent of troops to the Barbarian Tribe to help them."

He thought about it a lot, but in the end he decided to send troops to help, because this tripartite balance of power absolutely could not be broken.

It's okay to break at any other time, but not now, because the current turmoil hasn't been resolved yet.

"Yes!"

Since the emperor had spoken, and everyone present was a shrewd individual, they all naturally agreed.

After discussing the matter for a while, the court session ended.

The ministers went back to their own homes and to their own mothers.

Liu Yue left the Imperial Palace and went to his residence outside the Imperial Palace. He returned to his room and closed the door.

Turning around, I saw a woman behind me.

"You've got some nerve. I didn't kill you all last time, and you still dare to come looking for me in person."

Black shadows were writhing around the woman's body. If Xu Bai were here, he would definitely recognize that this woman was none other than Ying Yue.

Ying Yue said with a grin, "But the Prime Minister didn't kill me, which proves that my words still have some effect."

"Once the Emperor of the Great Yue Kingdom dies, and Bai Zhong is supporting the Border Pass, the Prime Minister can take advantage of his proximity to seize the throne."

"By then, even if Bai Zhong wanted to come back, it would be too late."

Liu Yue didn't say a word; in the dark room, his gaze remained lowered.

Although she looked just like an ordinary person and seemed relaxed, Ying Yue Ying Yue actually extremely nervous inside.

This was her mission. Even if Eunuch Wei wanted to achieve a one-for-one trade, it would take time. If Liu Yue arrived at that moment, then everything would be out of the question.

Therefore, the key issue must be addressed.

The reason she was sent here was because she was most familiar with the Great Yue Kingdom.

After about half an incense stick's time, Liu Yue finally raised his head, his gaze still indifferent.

It's done!

Seeing this, Ying Yue knew that Liu Yue hadn't killed her immediately, so there was still a possibility of negotiation.

Before she came, her father, Chief Mu, had told her that among the three major powers, there was only one that was not a monolithic entity, and that was the Great Yue Kingdom.

Therefore, this behavior is a tactic to sow discord.

Of course, they couldn't let Liu Yue deal with the emperor.

Because Liu Yue was an extremely cautious person, if things didn't go well and the emperor recovered, Liu Yue would be in absolute danger, so he would never take action.

Seeing that success was possible, Ying Yue waited quietly, anticipating Liu Yue's next words.

As expected, although Liu Yue's gaze was indifferent, he still slowly opened his mouth.

"I've gotten to where I am today not just because of my abilities. I'm not stupid; I know your plans."

"First you wiped out the Barbarian Tribe, then you turned around and destroyed the Great Yue Kingdom. I'm cooperating with you, but what will I get in return?"

"My goal is the throne of the Great Yue Kingdom. You have destroyed the Great Yue Kingdom, so where is my throne? You must at least give me sufficient conditions."

That's what I said, and that's the logic.

Liu Yue has already made it very clear.

He only wanted the throne, but the Great Yue Kingdom would eventually be destroyed.

What will happen after we are wiped out?

He can't even sit on the throne, so he's at a disadvantage no matter how you look at it.

Ying Yue smiled and said, "Prime Minister, your lifespan is probably coming to an end..."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yue's pupils contracted.
