Limited-edition new skin

Good heavens, the strongest summoning spell! Daddy, save me, okay?!

What did Yin Yunze say when he saw Zhou Hongxia shout that?

Actually, it wasn't too surprising.

After all, Zhou Hongxia wasn't particularly strong, nor did she seem like a hothouse flower who had run away from home.

The reason her family could let this silly girl run around freely was either because Zhou Hongxia had a protective treasure or because her elders were nearby.

However, seeing this situation in reality and hearing the little girl scream also gave Yin Yunze a strange feeling.

"Xia'er, don't panic! Father is here!"

As Zhou Hongxia used the Father Summoning Technique, a burly figure sped towards them from afar.

Leaving a trail of smoke, the man arrived in front of Yin Yunze a dozen breaths later, shielding Zhou Hongxia behind him.

This was a man who looked to be in his early forties, with resolute features and a thick beard.

His attire, however, differed from Zhou Hongxia's, who was dressed in casual red clothes. It was clearly a formal, official uniform.

If there are no surprises, it should be the proper uniform of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau.

However, similar to Zhou Hongxia's initial situation...

After the middle-aged man with a thick beard appeared, Yin Yunze did not see any trace of the Dynastic Karmic Luck on him.

Clearly, this method of concealing the Dynastic Karmic Luck is also a capability or a special feature of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau.

This is indeed a useful little trick, whether it's for concealing one's identity and strength, or for launching a sudden attack.

"I am Zhou Changqing, of the Bing Three of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau. May I ask who you are?"

After Zhou Changqing appeared, he did not immediately attack Yin Yunze to protect his own, but instead politely cupped his hands in greeting.

Seeing this, Yin Yunze nodded slightly and replied softly, "Hello, I am—"

However, this might just be normal practice for members of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau.

After greeting everyone this Zhou Changqing, Changqing immediately activated his Supernatural-Breaking Dharma Eye.

However, unlike Zhou Hongxia, who needed some time to perform the hand seals and chant incantations.

Zhou Changqing, however, opened and closed his eyes, and a purple light appeared in them.

Then, a gaze far more intense than Zhou Hongxia's fell directly upon Yin Yunze.

Although Yin Yunze was not actually harmed, the aggressive gaze made Yin Yunze frown and stop his self-introduction.

"You—you are—Nine-Tailed Fox, with nine tails? You are Ao—"

Unlike Zhou Hongxia, whose skills were not yet refined and who could not see through the illusion, Zhou Changqing easily saw through Yin Yunze's true form, which was not disguised by Illusion Technique.

After seeing clearly Yin Yunze's appearance as a girl with fox ears, nine tails, white hair, and green eyes.

Zhou Changqing's expression changed, and he shouted, "Stop!"

"What?"

Yin Yunze was slightly taken aback by Zhou Changqing's sudden remark.

Some people didn't understand what Zhou Changqing meant by that, since Yin Yunze wasn't planning to make a move.

The next moment, Yin Yunze understood.

Because Yin Yunze truly experienced the feeling of having his Avatar pierced by a sharp blade.

It didn't hurt much, just a very peculiar scraping sensation.

Looking down at the long sword protruding from his chest, Yin Yunze couldn't help but say, "I hate people like you—"

However, before Yin Yunze could finish speaking, the attacker behind him twisted his longsword, and Yin Yunze's Avatar shattered into countless points of light.

"Master—something feels wrong!"

At this moment, the tall, thin man who had shattered Yin Yunze's Avatar with his long sword looked at Zhou Changqing with some confusion.

"Yuanlang! Didn't I tell you to stop?!"

Unable to resist teasing Zhao Yuanlang, Zhou Changqing shook his head and sighed with a grim expression, "Oh no, oh no!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Seeing this, the little leopard demon who had witnessed the scene couldn't help but laugh loudly, "You're doomed!"

"What are you saying, you little monster!"

Seeing this, Zhou Hongxia couldn't help but ask a question.

Seeing the little leopard demon's attitude of being not afraid but rather delighted, Zhou Hongxia vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

"Your backer was killed by my senior brother Zhao! Although—even if he wasn't dead, my father is here! Are we afraid of that fox demon?!"

In the end, Zhou Hongxia couldn't continue speaking.

After all, the way Yin Yunze Avatar the scene didn't look like he had been killed at all.

Hearing Zhou Hongxia say that, Zhou Changqing's face turned even more bitter.

"That woman is not my backer! What merit do I possess to be worthy of the Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens Goddess as my backer!"

Looking at Zhou Hongxia, the little leopard demon's furry face revealed a human-like smile, "You're all doomed! Lady Yuanjun is very petty—"

However, before the little leopard demon could finish speaking, its head was stomped into the ground by a bare foot.

"Little demon, I heard you—you're saying I'm petty!" Yin Yunze gently rubbed the little leopard demon's head and said softly, "I'm not petty at all! I'm clearly a magnanimous person! How can you spread bad things about me like that!"

I'll prove it to you right now!

Removing his foot from the little leopard demon's head, Yin Yunze looked at it seriously and said, "I think you're an eight-year-old little loli with leopard ears and a leopard tail! You stutter! You have white fur and red eyes!"

As soon as Yin Yunze said this, the little leopard demon let out a scream, and its form changed from a leopard to a human girl.

Yin Yunze took out a piece of clothing and covered the Transformation little leopard demon with it. With a light kick, he sent it flying far away from the battlefield.

With this little leopard demon's strength—enough to defeat even Zhou Hongxia —it might become collateral damage if left here.

His gaze fell on Zhou Changqing and the other two. Yin Yunze flexed his fingers and said softly, "Well then, we should do some serious calculations now."

Looking at the nine long white tails swaying behind Yin Yunze, Zhou Hongxia felt like she could hardly breathe.

Only then did Zhou Hongxia understand what the white blur behind Yin Yunze that she had seen earlier was all about.

Zhao Yuanlang, his face deathly pale, cried out, "You are— Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens— "

"Oh." Looking at Zhao Yuanlang, Yin Yunze chuckled, "You recognize me, don't you? Then why did you stab me?"

"Zhou Changqing, of Zhou Changqing Bing Three of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau, greets the Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens Goddess! May the Goddess enjoy eternal bliss and boundless divine grace!"

Upon hearing Yin Yunze's words, Zhou Changqing was the first to react and immediately knelt down.

Zhou Changqing quickly pulled out two documents from the Storage Bag at his waist, presented them with both hands, and said respectfully, "We are here on the orders of the Commander of the Demon Pursuit Guard to deliver the imperial edict to the Goddess Yuanjun!"

Congratulations, Your Highness! Following a report from Prefect Lord Liu of Anqing Prefecture, the Emperor has bestowed upon you the County Princess of Qingping! Soon, a special official will come to confer the title upon you! The three of us are here on orders to inform Your Highness in advance!

Seeing this, Zhou Hongxia and Zhao Yuanlang followed suit, immediately kneeling down and bowing respectfully, saying, "Your humble servants pay their respects to the County Princess of Qingping!"

Although Yin Yunze could tell that Zhou Changqing was deliberately changing the subject.

However, it must be said that Zhou Changqing succeeded.

Compared to an Avatar that had little real impact, this imperial decree bestowing the title of County Princess of Qingping truly diverted Yin Yunze's attention.

"County Princess? What is that?"

Yin Yunze had heard of terms like princess and county princess before.

This county princess was someone Yin Yunze had never heard of before.

Oh right, Yin Yunze has also heard of a handsome immortal named Chuanzhu.

Originally, Yin Yunze wasn't particularly angry, but now, his mind was completely captivated by the title of county princess bestowed upon him.

Yin Yunze said that he had already spent more than half a year in this world.

Throughout the entire process, Yin Yunze never saw any members of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau come down to exorcise the demons.

After all, the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau is nominally responsible for apprehending all evil spirits in the world.

But in essence, the main area of operation of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau was only the vicinity of the imperial city.

The most important duty of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau is to protect the gentlemen in the imperial city from being disturbed by demons and evil spirits.

Just like the Imperial Guards in the real world, you've never heard of them voluntarily going to the countryside except when they have a mission, right?

These bureaucratic institutions never serve ordinary people.

When have you ever seen a high-ranking official of the Embroidered Uniform Guard go down to the countryside to help ordinary people solve their problems when he has nothing to do?

Anyway, ordinary people won't all die, and the capable members of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau are much more valuable than ordinary people.

Therefore, in fact, after discovering that Zhou Hongxia was a member of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau.

Yin Yunze guessed that something big was about to happen here.

Originally, Yin Yunze still held a sliver of hope that they were there to resolve the issue of Tomb of Prince Jing.

Unexpectedly, the other party was targeting him.

However, it brought about a good thing.

Yin Yunze really didn't expect that he would only ask Liu Zhengyuan to help Guo Jing get the position of Qingling County City God.

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhengyuan was so proactive that he secretly managed to get this County Princess of Qingping for Yin Yunze!

Of course, as for whether Zhou Changqing was secretly plotting something again, Yin Yunze felt that it was highly unlikely.

After all, in ancient times, Zhou Changqing's words already involved the emperor.

If it's fake, then this would be tantamount to falsely conveying an imperial edict.

This offense is far more serious than angering Yin Yunze.

This is like blowing up an entire street to put out a fire in one house.

Therefore, it's highly likely that this is true.

With a wave of his hand, Yin Yunze snatched the two documents from Zhou Changqing's hands.

At the same time, Yin Yunze asked curiously, "So, does this County Princess of Qingping have a rank? What rank is she?"

"Reporting to County Princess of Qingping— " Seeing Yin Yunze accept the two imperial edicts, Zhou Changqing breathed a sigh of relief, but still respectfully said, "Princess, these are titles of the Principal Third Rank!"

"What----"

Upon hearing that it was a third-rank official, Yin Yunze was immediately startled and almost lost control.

Principal Third Rank?

Isn't this two ranks higher than Prefect Liu Zhengyuan?

A third-rank official in the imperial court would be considered a high-ranking official.

This seemed to confirm that Zhou Changqing's words were true.

As Yin Yunze personally touched the imperial edict, a powerful Dynastic Karmic Luck descended from the heavens and landed upon Yin Yunze.

For a moment, Yin Yunze felt that all he could see were these purple energies with specks of golden light.

However, this obstruction of vision did not last long; soon, the Dynastic Karmic Luck changed on their own.

What was originally a thin film of light transformed into a solid, condensed outline, becoming a dress with a physical form.

Not only his clothes, but even Yin Yunze's hair was woven with the Dynastic Karmic Luck and adorned with various headdresses.

It sounds complicated, but in reality, the process only takes a few seconds.

What felt like a long time to Yin Yunze was but an instant in the eyes of Zhou Changqing and the others; Yin Yunze was completely transformed.

Her long white hair was styled into a formal bun, adorned with a golden phoenix ornament on top of her head, with two tassels hanging down from either side.

She wore a bright red dress with lifelike mandarin duck patterns embroidered on it.

As if imbued with the Dynastic Karmic Luck, these mandarin ducks seemed to come alive, constantly swimming and spreading their wings on the red fabric.

They are so lifelike that it seems as if these mandarin ducks will spread their wings and fly away from the surface of the clothing at any moment.

Upon discovering that he seemed to have acquired a new skin, Yin Yunze became quite interested and used the Authority over Frost and Snow to create a smooth ice mirror.

Then, in the ice mirror, Yin Yunze saw a girl with white hair and green eyes, wearing a golden phoenix crown and a bright red dress.

However, after carefully examining the golden bird crest on its head and the bright red robe embroidered with mandarin duck patterns—

No matter how Yin Yunze looked at it, he felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this outfit!

Turning his head to look at Zhou Changqing, Yin Yunze silently pointed to the golden bird crest on his head and asked, "What is this thing?"

"Reporting to County Princess of Qingping— " Zhou Changqing didn't sense anything amiss, assuming Yin Yunze was unfamiliar with the specifications of the princess's ceremonial robes, and quickly replied, "This is the princess's phoenix crown!"

Upon hearing this reply, Yin Yunze's lips twitched involuntarily.

Taking a deep breath, Yin Yunze pointed to his clothes with two fingers and asked again, "So, what's this outfit I'm wearing called?"

In response, Zhou Changqing immediately replied, "The clothes the county princess is wearing are her formal attire, called a 'xiapei'!"

"So—" Tilting his head stiffly, Yin Yunze looked at his reflection in the ice mirror, wearing a golden phoenix crown and a bright red robe with mandarin duck patterns. "So, I'm wearing a phoenix crown and robe right now?!"

"Indeed!" Zhou Changqing exclaimed, "The county princess and this phoenix coronet and wedding gown are truly a perfect match! Of all the county princesses I've ever seen, County Princess of Qingping is arguably the most suitable—"

"You're kidding me!"

With a sharp shout from Yin Yunze, a crackling sound rang out as an arc of electricity flashed past Zhou Changqing 'Zhou Changqing ear, causing his hair to stand on end.

"Speak up, who gave you permission to come and make fun of me!"

With a wave of his hand, seven Dark Heavenly Lightning Flag appeared floating in mid-air beside Yin Yunze.

"Heh, you want me to wear a wedding dress, huh! How do you all want to die!"

The phoenix coronet and embroidered robe, and the cat's robe with mandarin duck patterns, isn't this just a cat's red wedding dress!
