Chapter 606: Chapter 550: Iron Official Criminals, Butterfly Immortal Affiliates

Rustle, rustle, rustle...

By the shores of the Great Ming Lake, a fine misty rain still lingered.

After enjoying the splendid banquet prepared by Duke Bingling, Wang Yuan and Huang Wu reaffirmed the details of their subsequent plan before taking their leave.

Sheltering under an umbrella that exuded the allure of worldly desires, they walked with ease over the hundred-zhang corridor bridge erected along the lakeshore.

The famous scenery of the lake and mountains of the entire Red County Shenzhou failed to catch their eyes.

At this moment, both of them were pondering the warning that Duke Bingling had emphasized several times.

"Be wary of the black hand hidden in the crevices of history!"

The avatars of Duke Bingling, akin to the tentacles of an octopus, were deeply entwined with all the trades of the Human Dao, and he had lived long enough.

Even the most oblivious could not miss the abnormal twists in major historical events, and he had even engaged in several covert battles with the West King Holy Mother.

But without the Xuanyuan Mirror, they were always on the defensive.

They didn’t know where or when the twists would come from, nor did they know who the key figures in the next Human Dao Torrent would be.

Most covert battles, without a doubt, ended in failure.

The Human Dao had stumbled along thus far amidst the grappling of both parties.

Moreover, Duke Bingling knew more of the inside story than did Wang Yuan and Huang Wu.

From the dream realm of the ancient Twelve Corpses, the two had only noticed the Nine-Tailed Foxes that appeared and vanished unpredictably.

In reality, the closer they got to modern times, the more tools at the West King Holy Mother’s disposal.

Time is the best friend of those seeking longevity.

The Nine Soldiers could confirm that the power in the hands of this Heavenly Official was not limited to the "Peach God Tao."

The lords in the Vassal States, the reformist ministers with outstanding merit, the Champion Marquises with illustrious military achievements... and even the beggars holding broken bowls would sometimes drop dead inexplicably.

Often, the Human Dao had already changed before they realized that the West King Holy Mother had made her move.

Wang Yuan guessed that it was exactly these historical twists that led to the complete disappearance of many dynasties and figures he was familiar with after the Hundred Schools of Thought, leaving the entire history unrecognizable.

But Duke Bingling also mentioned that a Nine-Tailed Fox named "National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance" was the most insoluble of the many methods used.

In the eyes of others, that beauty could seem perfectly normal and fail to distinguish her identity as a Nine-Tailed Fox.

Yet, there has never been a target that could resist her charm.

Not once!

As they walked, Huang Wu raised her slender arm and nudged her Taoist partner, teasingly batting her radiant eyes and saying:

"Hey, Wang Xiaoyuan, what are you thinking about?

In the dream realm of the ancient Twelve Corpses, you played with the ’Foolish King Experience Card,’ enjoying the role of King You of Zhou setting ablaze beacons to deceive the vassals.

You enjoyed the company of Bao Si, the genuine Nine-Tailed Fox, for several years, even fathering a Crown Prince.

What was that term you told me about before? Oh, a ’seasoned driver’, right? The same trick won’t work on a seasoned driver a second time.

If that enchanting Nine-Tailed Fox really comes knocking, with your determination you should be fine, right?"

"That’s not necessarily the case!

Last time it was a dream woven by the Yellow Millet Demon. How much of the Nine-Tailed Fox’s real abilities were preserved is dubious."

Wang Yuan, holding the umbrella in one hand and wrapping his other around his partner’s willowy waist, inhaled the scent of moon laurel from her hair and said with utmost seriousness:

"Coach, I think I need some hands-on intensive training!"

The girl in Wang Yuan’s arms looked up with her beguiling jade mask, and coquettishly rolled her eyes at him:

"After carefully observing Xing’er’s portrayal of the National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance look, I’ve had some new insights lately.

It’s not that I couldn’t arrange for it.

Nvjiao, Chunhu, Meixi... Bao Si, not just a one-stop service, but why not use the ’Mirror Separation’ to learn twice the knowledge in one go?

Do you have any particular request for the outfit? Western Regions dancing girl, Miao girl, wealthy young lady, Thief Cao’s matching outfit, and... those silk stockings that you secretly asked Xiao Fu to make? Crystal shoes?"

The more Wang Yuan heard, the brighter his eyes shone.

"As for the textbook, well.

I’ve quietly intercepted some of the precious collectors’ editions that those beasts have been burning for Old Master Wang.

’Leisure Banquet,’ ’Spring Competition Scroll,’ ’Spectacle of Six Wonders,’ ’Mandarin Duck Secret Manual,’ ’Fengyue Mechanism’... they seem to be genuine works from masters.

Xiao Yuan, how about we study together... oh, should we criticize them instead?"

"What? How dare they burn such things for Old Master Wang? Criticize! We must thoroughly criticize!"

Wang Yuan, looking into his sister’s watery phoenix eyes, her cheeks slightly flushed, felt his heart thumping rapidly, nodding his head repeatedly like a pecking chicken.

Whether he could withstand the Nine-Tailed Fox was uncertain.

But if Huang Wu were to use her Seduction Technique on him, he would be completely defenseless against her!

Yet thinking about it from another angle, his confidence surged.

The Nine-Tailed Fox, just an old sister from a matriarchal society who had lived until now, could she play as floridly as I, Old Master Wang?

Pride!

Though it was still early, Wang Yuan had no intention to keep strolling.

Apart from the Nine-Tailed Fox, whose arrival time was unknown, they still needed to strive to conquer Yan State or Dai State as soon as possible, to collect a pair of Yin Yang Tripods.

He was about to pull Huang Wu back to prepare for the battle.

"Stop right there, young master!"

A sudden shout came from behind.

Wang Yuan’s eyebrows twitched, and he halted, casting a cold glance over his shoulder.

On the lakeside corridor.

A young master dressed in dark, lavish clothes, surrounded by a large group of Iron Clad Daoist Soldiers, instantly turned pale and involuntarily stopped in his tracks.
