On the dragon throne sat Her Imperial Majesty.
Beneath the dragon throne, standing in the hall, was another Her Imperial Majesty!
Chang Ming glanced at His Majesty not far beside him, then at the one in the hall. Apart from a slight difference in build, their faces were identical.
"Your Majesty, she..."
Long Tianliu ignored Chang Ming, her sharp gaze fixed directly on Yu Linglong.
"Did Mister die from practicing this forbidden art and falling into a demonic trance?"
A face change! How was this achieved? And in such a short time.
"Your Majesty, this is merely a minor trick my master practiced. It can deceive people for a while, but not forever."
Yu Linglong's words caused Long Tianliu's expression to immediately darken. She said displeasedly, "A mere illusion technique, and you dare to play tricks before me!"
"Your Majesty, this is no illusion technique. If Your Majesty does not believe me, I can come over and show you now."
How could Wu Chenzi's sorcery be compared to ordinary illusion techniques?
Yu Linglong stepped forward, one step after another, walking towards Long Tianliu.
Chang Ming immediately became vigilant again, "Presumptuous! You are not allowed to approach His Majesty!"
Long Tianliu, however, waved her hand, signaling him to step back.
When Yu Linglong reached a spot not far in front of her, she could finally see Yu Linglong's face clearly.
It wasn't an illusion technique, yet even she couldn't see any flaws.
It was an exact replica of her own face.
"This is merely using a specially made medicinal solution to reconstruct the skin on my face. However, this medicinal solution has a time limit, and it will revert to my original appearance before long."
After letting her see that it wasn't an illusion technique, Yu Linglong turned and slowly returned to her original position.
Turning back to face Long Tianliu, she smiled and said, "But this medicinal solution, only my master knows how to prepare it. Your Majesty, this thing is not of great use, it is merely to prove my identity. I hope Your Majesty will not mind."
She said the medicinal solution's effect would not last long, and it was indeed true.
In the time it took for this exchange and a few words, the medicinal effect on Yu Linglong's face was already gradually fading.
That face, little by little, was returning to its original appearance.
It was the same young woman as before!
Long Tianliu's mind raced through many possibilities. Finally, she nodded and said, "I now believe that you are indeed a descendant of Wu Chenzi. Speak, where is Feng Ye Xuan?"
"He is in your enemy's army."
Yu Linglong said with a smile, "Has Your Majesty not noticed the Asura God of War in Chu Qianli's army, who is victorious in every battle and seemingly invincible?"
"You mean..." Long Tianliu lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then suddenly her eyes shot up!
"You mean that... Asura God of War wearing a mask? You're saying he is the Northern Underworld God of War, Prince Xuan?"
Is it really Feng Ye Xuan?
Long Tianliu was astonished.
After thinking for a long time, she finally calmed down.
No wonder! No wonder!
She had fought for so many years and had never heard of an Asura God of War wearing a mask.
This Asura God of War had appeared out of nowhere.
He was originally unknown, how did he suddenly become so famous! Even the soldiers in her army were terrified at the mere mention of the Asura God of War's name!
So, it was Feng Ye Xuan!
It was the Prince Xuan of the Northern Underworld, already famous on the battlefield!
"But isn't Prince Xuan currently in Yitie City, fighting the army of the Rouyi tribe?"
There was clearly a Prince Xuan in Yitie City, so why was this Prince Xuan appearing on their battlefield?
Especially since this General Feng Si had been in the Longteng Kingdom for quite some time!
He hadn't arrived suddenly!
Yu Linglong took a step forward, leaned in, and said, "The general defending Yitie City is not Prince Xuan. That is merely Prince Xuan's younger brother, the Fourteenth Prince Feng Jin Rui."
Long Tianliu remained silent.
Yu Linglong continued, "That day, I was ordered to accompany Prince Xuan on the expedition. However, because I understood Prince Xuan too well, I quickly discovered that the general who wore armor and a helmet all day in the ranks was not Prince Xuan at all."
"Prince Xuan had left the army long ago and, under the guise of Feng Si, followed Chu Qianli to Longteng."
Upon hearing this, Long Tianliu's fingers, gripping the single-barreled handle of her sword, instantly tightened.
Feng Si, it really was Feng Ye Xuan!
They had joined forces to deal with her!
With Feng Ye Xuan here, could her army still have a chance to win?
Was Prince Xuan someone so easy to deal with?
Long Xinghe had left, taking her personal guards with him. Wei Xian had made a comeback, gathering a group of loyal old subordinates of the late Emperor.
The current Long Tianliu was already in a state of isolation and helplessness.
Upon hearing that Prince Xuan was in the enemy camp, her heart sank to the bottom.
Looking at Yu Linglong, who maintained a smile throughout,
Long Tianliu's fingertips slowly relaxed. She narrowed her eyes, staring at Yu Linglong's face.
"You were able to come here to find me and tell me this, so have you already thought of a solution for me?"
Otherwise, her coming here would be of no use.
And she could be captured and torn apart by five horses at any moment for angering her.
After all, Yu Linglong was also from the Northern Underworld Kingdom!
Long Tianliu asked in a deep voice, "What do you want?"
"Linglong has no special requests. I merely wish to return to Prince Xuan's side."
"What do you mean?" Long Tianliu's expression immediately turned very unpleasant!
Yu Linglong, however, smiled and said, "Your Majesty, please do not be angry. Linglong does indeed like Prince Xuan very much and wishes to be with Prince Xuan. However, at this moment, Prince Xuan only has Chu Qianli in his heart."
Long Tianliu did not speak, but she understood.
For the sake of a woman, he defied imperial orders to come here, and even handed over his own army to others.
This showed that Chu Qianli was indeed very important in Feng Ye Xuan's heart.
More important than his own life!
Could such a relationship allow for anyone else?
Yu Linglong continued, "Your Majesty, I have a way to make Prince Xuan leave the Longteng Kingdom, but it requires Your Majesty's cooperation."
"Tell me."
"Your Majesty only needs to write a letter, persuade the King of Fusang to join you in a frontal assault on Yitie City, and Your Majesty must also truly dispatch an army to engage in battle."
"With three armies attacking the city simultaneously, given the command of the inexperienced Fourteenth Prince, he will surely not be able to withstand it."
"Of course, Your Majesty does not actually intend to attack Yitie City, nor do you wish to make enemies on all sides at this time."
"Therefore, after sending out the state letter, Your Majesty simply needs to secretly send someone to deliver the news... With Your Majesty's intelligence, you will surely know how to make Wei Qiong believe that this news was passed on by someone under her watch."
"Once the news reaches Feng Ye Xuan's ears, Prince Xuan, for the sake of his brother and the people, will surely return to Yitie City to defend it."
"At that time, with Prince Xuan gone, how can Your Majesty not capture Chu Qianli's army?"
