[Fantasy] A Eunuch Breaks into the Inner Palace (Complete) - 24

In Chapter Sixteen of Part Two, the tongue of dental

psychologist Li Xiaomin, like a dentist's drill, deftly probed into the moist, delicate cherry lips, parting the pearly teeth and entwining with the beautiful woman's fragrant tongue. Saliva mingled, their tongues locked in a fierce battle, causing Yan Fei's delicate body to tremble and her whole body to heat up. If Li Xiaomin hadn't held her slender waist, she would likely have collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
Li Xiaomin's hands slowly released her, allowing the beautiful woman's delicate body to slide limply to the ground, kneeling softly at his feet.
Gently stroking her high, dark hair and smooth cheeks, Li Xiaomin's hand pressed behind the beauty's head, and with a gentle pull, he pressed her burning cheek against his crotch.
The beautiful woman's bright eyes suddenly widened, surprised by the firm feeling on her face.
Her hand trembled as she raised it, involuntarily stroking it through her trousers. She could clearly sense that the young man before her was not the eunuch she had always lamented, but a surprisingly whole man!
Her pretty face slowly lifted, and she knelt on the ground, looking up at the handsome young man with a face full of sympathy, her beautiful eyes filled with terror.
Li Xiaomin smiled slightly, feeling that this "shock therapy" had taken effect. This lonely beauty no longer carried the premature weariness of her age, but rather a vibrant energy emanating strongly from her youthful body. This could be felt from her excited expression, her rapid breathing, and her trembling body.
As an excellent psychologist, guiding patients to heal themselves is their noble duty. Li Xiaomin's hand guided Yanfei's slender hand to untie his jade belt, letting the beauty watch helplessly as his casual trousers fell down, revealing his complete set of therapeutic tools for treating "lonely beauty syndrome."
Yanfei stared wide-eyed at the object before her, her heart pounding. Her thoughts froze for a moment, and she was like a beautiful jade sculpture kneeling on the ground, unable to move, only her rapid, warm breaths hitting the instrument before her.
At this moment, the psychotherapist's instruments were ready. Li Xiaomin watched with satisfaction as his spirited assistant embraced the beauty's head and, with the professionalism of a doctor, positioned her correctly. Like a dentist drilling a hole in a tooth, he swiftly probed into her warm, moist mouth.
Under his skilled and professional guidance, Yanfei began to suck and swallow in a daze. Her cherry lips sucked, her tongue entwined, bringing the doctor boundless pleasure. Li Xiaomin, while treating and saving a patient, also received his due reward, making him deeply sigh, "Helping others is the source of happiness"—truly a profound truth!
He raised his head, looking around with satisfaction. In this vast, colorful garden, there were only the two of them. Amidst the vibrant flowers, they were tightly intertwined. Handsome men and beautiful women, a hundred flowers in full bloom—such a scene was rarely seen, even in heaven or on earth.
The palace gardens were vast, with moon gates on all sides for entry and exit. Li Xiaomin frowned, thinking, "The most important thing in treating psychological problems is to avoid external disturbances. If someone were to witness this, the female patient's psyche would be severely impacted, which would be detrimental to the treatment! If she were to suffer severe psychological trauma as a result
, it would be counterproductive!" To prevent any unsuspecting eunuchs or palace maids from barging in and disrupting their intimate moment, and also to test whether his newly practiced restriction technique had made any breakthrough progress, Li Xiaomin muttered an incantation. An invisible yet powerful wave emanated from his body, enveloping the entire garden. Reinforced by his incantation, a powerful restriction gradually took shape. Neither people nor sounds could freely pass through this restriction; even floating ghosts and birds in the sky were no exception.
Li Xiaomin was uncomfortable with ghosts spying on him while he treated patients, so he had long ago ordered all the ghosts under his command to leave the garden, lest they actually be cursed and grow styes. His curse technique had also become somewhat effective; a few days ago, Yue Niang really did grow a sty, scaring her so much that she dared not peek again. This time, he had left in a hurry and forgot to bring her soul-collecting jade when he changed into civilian clothes, thus eliminating one of his voyeuristic third wheels.
Having set up the protective barrier, Li Xiaomin felt at ease, his hands cupping the beautiful woman's head beneath him, his eyes slightly closed, enjoying the caresses of her soft, smooth tongue and cherry lips.
Below, Consort Yan carefully swallowed, her heart still reeling from the shock, but she was gradually regaining her composure. With her exceptional intelligence and quick wit, she soon deduced that the Grand Secretary had infiltrated the palace. Such a serious matter, if revealed, would cost countless lives. To avoid being silenced, she had to please the Grand Secretary. If he was pleased, he would not only spare her life but also take better care of her, making her life in the palace much easier, and even her family would benefit.
Moreover… having such a handsome young man by her side would add much more interest to her future days…
Consort Yan's pretty face flushed slightly, and she could only conceal her shyness with vigorous movements.
In this breathtakingly beautiful garden, the lush flowers bloomed brilliantly, and the two exceptionally handsome men and women, one standing and one kneeling, moved in harmonious and natural harmony, making one marvel at the most beautiful moment of nature's masterpiece.
Just as the beautiful scenery was breathtaking, a crimson cloud suddenly drifted across the sky, rapidly expanding and enveloping the garden in its swirling crimson hue.
Li Xiaomin warily raised his head, gazing at the pinkish-red mist surrounding him and his companion. A peculiar fluctuation of magical power drew his attention involuntarily to the pinkish-red smoke.
Within the mist, a beautiful woman seemed to materialize, standing in the air, nodding and smiling.
Li Xiaomin looked up at the indistinct figure, his hands pressing against the head of the woman beneath him, his mind sharp and wary, unsure of who this was.
The beautiful woman in the air gradually solidified from the pinkish-red mist into a gigantic human form, raising her arm and pointing sharply downwards!
In that instant, all the smoke transformed into a giant arrow, hurtling downwards, its target Li Xiaomin and the beautiful woman beneath him, completely unaware of the impending doom!
Li Xiaomin broke out in a cold sweat. Just as he was about to concentrate on defending himself, the giant arrow came with tremendous speed and immense magical power, suppressing his immortal power and rendering him unable to cast any spells! The
beautiful woman from before also transformed and pierced through the giant arrow, crashing to the ground with even greater speed. The arrowhead was aimed directly at the point where Li Xiaomin and Consort Yan were joined together!
A deafening roar followed, and dust billowed everywhere. Li Xiaomin closed his eyes and cried out, "It's over! This arrow has really turned me into a eunuch! Alas, poor beauty, I can survive without a penis, but what will happen to her without her head!"
The giant arrow struck, creating a large hole in the ground, causing his body to plummet rapidly, as if falling into a bottomless abyss.
Li Xiaomin felt his body falling faster and faster in despair. Suddenly, a strange feeling welled up in his mind: "Strange, why did I only feel a little pain after being hit by that arrow, and even feel a pleasant sensation like before?"
With a thud, the two of them fell to the ground, the soft earth causing the handsome couple to roll around in a heap.
In the vast, empty cave, Li Xiaomin opened his eyes and looked up, only to see a small hole above him, far away. He couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate that he hadn't died on the spot after falling from such a height!
But how could there be such a large hole beneath the ground of the palace garden? Li Xiaomin held the trembling Consort Yan, gently patting her back, and looked around.
The first thing he saw made him break out in a cold sweat: because he clearly saw the face of an absolutely beautiful woman!
Li Xiaomin was used to seeing beautiful women's faces and would never be so frightened by them. What really surprised him was that this beautiful woman's face was many times taller than him!
A gigantic face loomed close to him, smiling. Even though the face was stunningly beautiful, it held no appeal for Li Xiaomin. He hurriedly hugged Yanfei's trembling body, sat down, and, forcing himself to remain calm, loudly demanded, "What kind of evil spirit are you, daring to seek out my great master? Aren't you afraid of my divine magic causing trouble?"
The beautiful woman smiled at them, her crimson lips parting slightly as she uttered a clear sentence from her gaping maw: "Little master, you fell from a great height. If I hadn't caught you, you would have been smashed to pieces. Why don't you repay my kindness and instead speak ill of me like this?" (

Part Two, Chapter Seventeen: The Giant Beauty)

Li Xiaomin was startled. He stood up, still holding the trembling beauty in his arms, and looked around. He realized he was in a huge cave. Judging from where he had fallen, this cave was below the imperial palace gardens, or perhaps even larger, with the Qin Zheng Hall possibly above it.
And this beautiful woman was not just a face. Her entire body was tall and elegant, more than a hundred times the height of Li Xiaomin. Her snow-white, naked body radiated a faint glow.
Despite her height, standing tall in the cave, she didn't appear cramped at all; instead, the space seemed vast, with a considerable distance between her and the cave entrance above, demonstrating the immense size of the cave.
Although this beautiful woman was tall, her skin was as smooth as cream, her breasts high and firm, a pair of prominent jade peaks enough to arouse anyone's desire. Her slender waist swayed gently to the rhythm of music, her exquisite figure indescribably beautiful, simply stunning. Coupled with the ethereal aura emanating from her, she appeared like an alluring goddess. The intense temptation emanating from her naked body far surpassed any human or ghostly beauty Li Xiaomin had ever known.
And Li Xiaomin and his companion now stood on her jade-like palms. She carefully cradled the couple, looking at these tiny humans, a hint of excited joy appearing on her luscious red lips.
Her face flushed slightly with excitement, radiating a peach-pink glow that was undeniably alluring. Her tongue darted from her cherry-like lips, lightly licking them. Li Xiaomin's throat went dry at the sight; he almost wanted to reach out and lick her lips, perhaps even nibble on her tempting tongue.
He quickly regained his composure, becoming wary. This woman's allure was so intense, practically irresistible, making her an absolute beauty, utterly seductive. Her magical power was, of course, immense. From his own observation, compared to his own, her power was like the moon compared to candlelight. If they were to fight, he feared he wouldn't even be able to withstand a single blow.
He coughed lightly and said in a deep voice, "May I ask your esteemed name, young lady, and why you reside beneath the palace?"
The tall, beautiful woman's face showed surprise, and she asked doubtfully, "Is this the underground palace? So humans have begun to have their own emperors now? Interesting!"
Li Xiaomin was puzzled, unable to guess her origins, but the beautiful concubine in his arms was nearly fainting from fright. She clung tightly to his waist, trembling uncontrollably, her delicate fingers unsure of what to grasp, and ended up gripping his exposed medical instruments tightly, causing him pain.
Li Xiaomin, seasoned by experience, was no longer shy, and naturally reached out to pry open her tightly clenched fingers. He bent down and casually pulled up his trousers, covering what was inappropriate to be exposed to a strange woman. While fastening his belt, he said gently, "Thank you for saving our lives, young lady. Please take us up there. We can talk about it when we get up there!"
The beautiful woman's fair face showed a mournful expression. She said softly, "But I can't get up there! This body I'm in isn't my real body; it's just something I conjured with magic. The sunlight up there is so intense, it seems even stronger than the blazing sun of yesteryear. If this magical body of mine goes up, it will be overwhelmed by the yang energy inside." "It'll melt away completely, not a single drop will be left!"
Her large, watery eyes fell on Li Xiaomin's trousers, a captivating allure emanating from them. She spoke softly, "What were you doing just now? Keep going, okay? Actually, I only found out there was a man like you up there, with such abundant yin and yang energy, because I was disturbed by what you were doing. That's why I broke the ground's barrier and brought you in. Hurry up, maybe my hope of escape really lies with you!"
She opened her lips and slowly exhaled a gentle breath towards the couple on her jade palms.
Her breath was like orchids, fragrant and intoxicating. But because of her height, the breath was strong, like a gentle breeze flowing past them, enveloping the handsome couple in a fragrant embrace.
Within that fragrance seemed to carry an extremely strong allure; the couple on her jade palms immediately blushed, their gazes filled with desire. Consort
Yan was the first to succumb, tightly embracing Li Xiaomin and ripping off his newly put-on trousers, vigorously kneading him.
Li Xiaomin fared somewhat better, struggling to resist the lust coursing through his veins, secretly astonished: "What powerful aphrodisiac abilities! Compared to her, Yue Niang is worlds apart! What is her background, how can she possess such strong magic and aphrodisiac abilities?"
Seeing him embracing the mature woman, his lower body throbbing with desire, yet making no further move, clearly resisting his own lust, the stunning beauty let out a surprised "Eh," opened her crimson lips, exhaled another fragrant breath, and her rosy tongue darted out from her mouth, gently licking Li Xiaomin's genitals with the tip of her tongue.
As the tip of his tongue was licked by a huge, red tongue, Li Xiaomin felt a surge of heat, his blood seemingly boiling. Unable to endure any longer, he pushed Yanfei to the ground, pouncing on her like a wild beast, tearing her magnificent palace dress, parting her jade-like legs, and forcefully thrusting into her body!
Yanfei let out a soft moan, her mature, beautiful body, untouched by years of intimacy, tightly entwining herself around Li Xiaomin's body, her jade-like legs wrapped around his waist, intertwined with his. Her body trembled, she moaned with closed eyes, her face flushed, her entire being immersed in the intense, earth-shattering stimulation.
On the jade palms of this stunning beauty, a handsome couple, about ten years apart in age, were engaged in passionate lovemaking. A faint pink aura emanated from their naked bodies, turning into wisps of smoke, which the beautiful woman, her eyes gleaming with excitement, inhaled deeply.
The stunningly beautiful woman's face was filled with excitement and joy. Her delicate nose, greedily inhaling the rosy scent, almost pressed against their bodies. The tip of her jade-like nose gently nudged Li Xiaomin's bare buttocks as she sighed in ecstasy, "Excellent! Finally, we've found such a suitable man who can help us escape this predicament! Ah, so this is how people in this era do things too, seemingly no different from those of the past!"
Li Xiaomin, pressed against Yanfei's beautiful body, listened to her delicate moans and cries, his heart burning with desire that nearly overwhelmed him.
But every time he pulled his hips back, he bumped into something, something quite elastic. He reached back and grasped something soft, firm, and smooth as jade.
Li Xiaomin turned around in surprise and found himself holding a huge nose tip. The owner of that jade-like nose was wrinkling her nose, looking at him with amusement, her bright eyes larger than the combined eyes of all the beautiful women he had ever seen.
At this moment, Li Xiaomin was already burning with lust from the stunning beauty's magic. Forgetting his fear, he forcefully pushed away Qiongbi, then flipped the beauty over, pressing her tightly against his large, soft jade-like hands. He pounced on her, launching another frenzied assault.
Yanfei knelt on the beauty's jade-like hands, her voice trembling with soft moans. Driven to ecstasy by the young man's frenzied thrusts from behind, she felt a pleasure so intense that she wouldn't trade it for even a celestial being.
Their frenzied lovemaking lasted for over an hour, until Consort Yan's beautiful eyes rolled back and she fainted several times before Li Xiaomin finally finished. He held her naked, rosy body, panting heavily.
After a long while, reason finally returned to Li Xiaomin. He looked up in horror at the stunningly beautiful woman, who was intoxicated by the scent of pink, but he was too weak to get up. He could only lie back on her jade-like palm and said in a deep voice, "May I ask, miss, who are you, and why did you use magic to make us do this?"
The woman opened her eyes, looking alluringly at the naked boy in her palm, and apologized with a coquettish smile, "I'm so sorry! I've been trapped for too long, and in my haste, I didn't ask you before making you do this."
Li Xiaomin asked curiously, "You were trapped? Trapped where?"
The stunningly beautiful woman glanced down and said resentfully, "Right down there! My current body is a simulation I created with my remaining magic power. If I hadn't obtained powerful energy from your desires, I'm afraid it would be difficult to create a physical body next time."
She looked pitifully at her palm. The young man on the platform said in a trembling voice, "Please help me. Bring more women here to make love so I can have enough energy to break free of my shackles and return to the world, okay?"
Li Xiaomin's eyes darted around, and he sighed, "What good will it do me if I help you? You won't even do 'that' with me!"
The stunningly beautiful woman said urgently, "Why wouldn't I? I'm willing! If you want me to do it, I'll do it with you. It's just not possible now. My current magic power isn't enough for that. How about we wait until my true form appears and I can make you feel good?"
Her jade-like face flushed slightly, and she lowered her eyes, saying softly, "Actually, I've never done anything like this before. If you rescue me, I'll agree to whatever you want!"
These words, spoken from her fragrant mouth, carried endless allure, igniting Li Xiaomin's desire.

Part Two, Chapter Eighteen: Paying Off Gambling Debts with Flesh.

He suppressed his lust and was about to ask the woman about her origins again when he saw her anxious expression. She quickly said, "Time is almost up. This hour is one of the weakest points of the restriction. Soon the restriction will strengthen, and my Dharma body will disappear. You should leave quickly. Next time, at this time, you must bring some more girls so I can accumulate even stronger magic power!"
The beautiful woman's face showed a pitiful, affectionate look. Her pink tongue emerged from her lips and gently licked Li Xiaomin's naked body, instantly covering most of him like a thick, head-colored blanket, gently licking and sucking away his fluids.
Under her lick, Li Xiaomin's erection received the greatest stimulation, pressing hard against her red, moist flesh, making her blush and hurriedly withdraw her tongue.
She smiled gently, and her tall, slender figure suddenly soared into the air. Her pink robes fluttered, like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, carrying an awe-inspiring and enviable noble aura. She flew into the sky, her jade-like hands cradling Li Xiaomin and the unconscious Consort Yan, extending from the cave to gently place them on the ground.
Sunlight shone down, illuminating her crystalline jade hands, which hissed and vanished. Her entire body transformed into a wisp of peach-colored smoke, shooting straight into the dark abyss below.
In the palace garden, there was a huge hole in the ground, its bottom dark and unfathomable. Li Xiaomin lay beside the hole, staring wide-eyed down, but could see nothing. The hole had swallowed the stunning beauty whole, leaving no trace.
After watching for a long time, Li Xiaomin stood up dejectedly and sighed.
Scratching his head, he thought to himself, "The restriction she mentioned earlier definitely wasn't the one I set up. With her powerful magic, what restriction could she possibly be afraid of? And who set that restriction? Also, what is her background?"
He pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. He could only turn around and pick up the unconscious Consort Yan, covering her naked body with her tattered palace robes. Looking at the satisfied smile on her pretty face in her unconscious state, he knew that he had used all his strength to satisfy her for a whole hour, and that he had satisfied all the pent-up resentment he had accumulated over the years. His psychological knots would likely be untied. He, however, was exhausted, his back aching, and he needed to go back and rest. Such a selfless doctor, disregarding his own fatigue, was probably the only one like him in this era.
The next day, Li Xiaomin didn't arrive as promised. His levitation technique wasn't good enough; jumping into such a large hole would be very dangerous, not to mention he had to bring a beautiful woman with him. Moreover, he wasn't entirely sure what this stunningly beautiful woman was up to. It was best to be cautious.
For safety's sake, he ordered his ghost guards to dig a tunnel through the side wall of the large cave, so he could enter from a gentler passage. However, the chilling aura emanating from the cave was unbearable for the ghost guards, who could only dig while trembling. Progress was slow. Fortunately, the further away the tunnel was from the large cave, the lighter the chill became, allowing the ghost guards to dig faster.
While they were digging, the stunningly beautiful woman never appeared, as if she knew Li Xiaomin wouldn't come and therefore didn't bother to show herself.
That day, Li Xiaomin accompanied Princess Zhenping to Empress Zhou's palace.
Although she already knew Princess Zhenping's illness was improving, seeing her appear so cheerful and lively still surprised Empress Zhou, filling her with immense joy.
After the ceremony, Empress Zhou joyfully embraced Princess Zhenping, who was kneeling on the ground. Tears streamed down her beautiful face as she trembled and said, "It's good that you're better! It's good that you're better!"
Princess Zhenping nestled in her mother's arms, secretly smiling, her heart filled with immense joy. However, she still felt a slight unease, wondering if her mother would grant her request.
A beautiful and adorable little girl nearby, seeing this, was also overjoyed. She ran to her sister's side, hugged her, and chattered loudly, exchanging pleasantries and small talk.
But her gaze, passing by Princess Zhenping, fell upon a young minister standing at the door. Though outwardly respectful, a smug, wicked smile played on his lips. This caused Princess Zhenping's face to change slightly; she bit her lip in alarm and looked back at her mother, seemingly seeking her assistance.
But what she saw was her mother looking at the wicked eunuch with gratitude, her voice trembling as she said, "Xiaominzi, it's all thanks to you! Zhenping recovered so quickly, all thanks to the power of your elixir!"
Li Xiaomin thought to himself, "It's not just the elixir, there's also the power of the 'immortal chicken,' you didn't even mention it! Alas, to heal the sick and save lives with such selfless dedication, I'm truly unique in the world!"
But on the surface, he remained respectful, bowing deeply and saying solemnly, "Your Majesty is too kind. This humble subject was merely fortunate; everything is thanks to Your Majesty's blessings!"
Empress Zhou looked gratefully at this capable minister, but a faint worry rose in her heart. She knew that the more humble Li Xiaomin was in front of others, the more vigorous he would be in bed at night, often demanding she do extremely shameful things to maintain his psychological balance. The thought of possibly fainting several times tonight made Empress Zhou tremble; thinking of tomorrow's morning court, she feared she wouldn't have the strength to attend.
Therefore, she quickly calculated in her mind and hurriedly smiled, "My dear minister, you are too modest. Whatever your request is today, please make it now, and I will certainly grant it."
Li Xiaomin's heart stirred. He looked up at Empress Zhou, then at her two daughters, until Princess Anping shrank back in alarm before he looked away. He didn't mention that he would give the Empress or any of the princesses to him as a memento of his medical treatment. He simply said humbly, "This humble subject has no need. I only regret that I was too illiterate in my youth to pass the imperial examinations. Although I am now serving the country, I still have regrets. I beg Your Majesty to allow an additional special examination this year, so that this humble subject may serve as the chief examiner and select talented individuals for the country. That would be enough for me."
Princess Zhenping turned around, looking at Li Xiaomin with heartfelt gratitude. She had just asked her younger sister, Princess Changping, to speak with her close friend, Xiaomin, to request that their mother add an extra imperial examination so that her lover could legitimately participate. Xiaomin, true to his word, seeing Princess Changping take her there, immediately patted his chest and guaranteed to petition Empress Zhou for an extra examination. With such a high-ranking official as him on the case, Empress Zhou's agreement was naturally much easier.
Empress Zhou hesitated slightly, considering the Qian Song case, which implicated many, and the need for new officials to fill the gaps in the bureaucracy, and nodded in agreement: "That's fine. Xiaomin, this matter is entirely your responsibility."
Li Xiaomin bowed and accepted the order, secretly chuckling to himself, "Testing myself, this exam is truly interesting!"
After casually submitting a few memorials, Li Xiaomin excused himself and left, waiting at the door, determined not to let Princess Anping slip away.
Princess Anping, as expected, had a guilty conscience. After exchanging a few words with Empress Zhou and Princess Zhenping,
she feigned illness and said she needed to go back to rest. Empress Zhou, upon hearing this, was indeed very anxious and urged her to go back and rest quickly, lest she fall ill like her sister.
Princess Anping secretly slipped out through the back door, looking around cautiously. Seeing that the wicked eunuch was no longer nearby, she ran off and disappeared into a dense peach grove not far away. Thinking that the wicked eunuch couldn't possibly catch up, she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly,
a pair of hands reached out from behind, grasping her small, heaving breasts and boldly caressing and kneading them.
Princess Anping screamed in fright, turning around to see the handsome young man, smiling wickedly, tightly hugging her from behind—who else could it be but the wicked eunuch?
She struggled fiercely, but Li Xiaomin held her tightly, his hands comfortably kneading her breasts beneath her silk robe. He closed his eyes, enjoying the wonderful sensation, a smug smile playing on his lips.
Princess Anping was startled and unable to break free. She raised her foot and stomped hard on Li Xiaomin's big toe!
Li Xiaomin cried out in pain, jumped back, clutching his foot and hopping around wildly before collapsing to the ground. Pointing at Princess Anping, he angrily rebuked, "How could you do this! What's wrong with touching it a couple of times? And then you stomped on it!"
Princess Anping was so angry that tears streamed down her face as she covered her face and cried, "You wicked eunuch, you...you did this to me again!"
Li Xiaomin struggled to his feet, clutching the tree trunk and whimpering in pain, "Alright, I've come to talk to you about our bet from last time!"
Upon hearing this, Princess Anping's expression changed slightly, but she forced a smile and said, "What bet? I don't remember."
Li Xiaomin immediately became anxious, hands on his hips, and shouted, "Hey, you surnamed Lai?" "You promised me, and now you want to go back on your word?"
Princess Anping shook her head and giggled, "No, no, I just didn't! If you dare to complain to Empress Nu, I'll tell my mother that you touched my, my..."
Li Xiaomin glared at her and sighed, "People's hearts have really changed. Even an innocent and lovely little princess like you has learned to lie and deceive! Alas, since I'm going to be bound and executed for insulting a princess anyway, I might as well finish it off quickly, so that my suffering won't be in vain!"
With that, he pounced on her like a wolf, pinned the pretty little girl down, kissed her face all over, and took the opportunity to slip his hands inside her clothes.
Princess Anping screamed in shock, feeling his incredibly nimble hand already inside her clothes, grasping the girl's most precious and mysterious forbidden zone. Overwhelmed with shame and indignation, she grabbed Li Xiaomin's head, pounding him with her small fists, crying, "You bad eunuch, I'll beat you to death, you bad eunuch!"
Li Xiaomin was enjoying the wonderful touch of the girl's soft skin. He endured the pain of being punched a few times, then simply got up and pressed her down, holding her arms as well. His other hand then roamed freely inside her clothes, caressing every tender part of her small, delicate body, leaving no spot untouched.
As her demonic hands touched her body, Princess Anping's body quickly heated up and softened. She no longer had the strength to fight him, and could only sob, "No, no!"
Li Xiaomin thought to himself, "You'd be better called 'Ya Mei Die,' that way I'd feel like I'm in a movie!"
However, he was only teasing the little girl to retaliate for her beatings and humiliations. Now that he saw he had frightened her enough, he lifted his head from her small, soft breasts, sighing with a sorrowful expression, "Your Highness, I value my promises above all else. Since you've promised me, how can I go back on my word? I absolutely cannot allow such a thing to happen. Even if it costs me my life, I will make sure you fulfill your promise!"
Princess Anping exclaimed, "I didn't promise you anything! Don't talk nonsense! But what you just said..." "I remember now. You said you'd heal my sister, and you've done it. Now, tell me, what reward do you want?"
Li Xiaomin's spirits lifted, and he smiled warmly. "Actually, you can just ask Her Majesty the Empress for any reward you want. What I want is for the princess to promise me one thing."
Princess Anping, eager to escape, hurriedly cried out, "Alright, tell me quickly, what is it? I promise you!"
Li Xiaomin's face flushed, and he excitedly said, "Actually, it's nothing much, just please promise me, Your Highness, that whenever I want to kiss you and there's no one else around, you can allow me to kiss you to my heart's content!"
Princess Anping was shocked, her face turning bright red with embarrassment, and she trembled as she said, "How can you do that! You...you're going too far!"
Li Xiaomin didn't say anything, and his hand once again slipped inside her palace dress, reaching downwards.
Feeling his devilish hand slip inside her clothes, gently caressing the most private part between her legs, his nimble fingertips lightly teasing and prodding, Princess Anping sobbed weakly, "Alright, alright, I promise you! Just take your hand out!"
Li Xiaomin reluctantly withdrew his hand from her clothes, staring blankly at the dewdrop on his fingertip glistening in the sunlight.
Seeing him lost in thought, Princess Anping quietly pushed him away, scrambled to her feet, and without even brushing off the dust, tried to sneak away from behind.
Li Xiaomin snapped out of his daze, jumped up and chased after her, embracing Princess Anping from behind. He gently kissed her jade-like neck and smiled, "Your Highness, where are you going?"
Princess Anping blushed deeply and said in a trembling voice, "I'm going back to rest for a while. Aren't you going back to rest too?"
Li Xiaomin reached out and carefully touched her breasts while shaking his head and laughing, "I don't want to. According to our agreement, I want to kiss you now. Please turn around, Your Highness, and let me kiss you to my heart's content!"
Princess Anping looked around in alarm at the edge of the woods and whispered, "There are too many people here. Don't let anyone see us. Let go!"
Li Xiaomin smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't worry. The whole palace is filled with my trusted men. Who would gossip? Besides, we're in a dense forest. No one can see us!"
Princess Anping was slightly alarmed. According to him, he could even control the safety of the palace. If she didn't comply, she feared that the wicked eunuch might suddenly become vicious and even harm her and her daughter!
With a slight hesitation, Li Xiaomin turned her delicate body around and, without a word, pulled her into his arms, lowering his head to kiss her cherry lips.
Princess Anping let out a soft moan as her fragrant lips were enveloped by Li Xiaomin's warm, moist lips. His smooth tongue probed between her lips, parting her pearly teeth and entwining with her small, sweet tongue.
This long, wet kiss, this intense entanglement of lips and tongues, made Princess Anping's body heat up. A strange feeling she had never experienced before rose from the depths of her heart. Her small, delicate body involuntarily embraced the slightly older boy, her breath coming in ragged gasps, her strong, sweet fragrance wafting onto Li Xiaomin's face.
Li Xiaomin smiled softly, embracing the delicate young girl. He kissed her deeply, sucking on her cherry lips and fragrant tongue, while carefully reaching out to caress her small breasts, slender waist, and soft, girlish buttocks. Princess Anping, having been kissed for the first time by the girl, was so captivated by his kiss that she didn't resist much, letting him take advantage of her.
However, when Li Xiaomin loosened her sash and reached out to grope and pinch her breasts, her small nipples hurt from his fingers, and she woke up with a start. She pushed Li Xiaomin away forcefully, crying, "You, you broke your promise! You said you'd only kiss me, why are you touching me now?"
Li Xiaomin touched his nose and chuckled dryly, "Ah, I forgot for a moment, alright, I'll just kiss you then!"
He hugged Princess Anping tighter again, kissing her small, tender face, her snow-white neck, and gradually moving down until he kissed her breasts, which were exposed by her open clothes.
Princess Anping initially let him off the hook, seeing that he had changed his ways. However, he became increasingly strange, even kissing his breasts and biting down on the small, rosy nipples, sucking hard, causing her pain and numbness. She hugged Li Xiaomin's head and cried, "What are you doing? This is... Take your mouth off me!"
Li Xiaomin raised his head, looking innocent, and said, "Your Highness, I'm doing this exactly as agreed! Didn't you say I could kiss you to my heart's content? This is how I can kiss
you to my heart's content!" After saying that, he lowered his head again, kissing and sucking on the smooth breasts, taking the newly developed, tender nipples into his mouth and sucking on them wantonly, his tongue teasing them from time to time.
Princess Anping was both laughing and crying, her delicate body weak with embarrassment. Finally, she could only sob, "Alright, stop kissing me! What do you want from me?"
Li Xiaomin looked up, wrapped his arms around her slender waist, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly nodded, "I know! The reason I did this is because of it!"
Princess Anping asked curiously, "Who? Who's causing this?"
Li Xiaomin pulled down his pants, pointed to the thing that had once made his mother scream, tremble, and cry, and sighed, "This strange thing... I don't know why, it's suddenly grown a lot these past few days. It's probably because of it that I was so disrespectful to the princess."
Princess Anping had never seen anything like it before and didn't know what it was. She looked fearfully at his erect member, hid behind him, and shrank back, saying timidly, "What should I do?"
Li Xiaomin turned around and patted her head, comforting her, "Actually, it's nothing. " "Just make it smaller, and as for how to make it smaller, just look, this is all you need."
He took the girl's slender hand and guided her to place it on it, gently stroking and kneading it. He sighed comfortably and praised, "Not bad, not bad, Your Highness, you are so clever, you learn so quickly. In a little while, it will shrink."
Princess Anping looked at the strange thing with a mixture of curiosity and fear. Her slender, white hands gently stroked and played with it. After a while, seeing that there was nothing unusual, her curiosity grew. She touched it all around, laughing with curiosity, and murmured, "What a strange thing!"
Li Xiaomin, on the other hand, felt extremely comfortable. Standing in the peach grove, he held the most favored princess of the court tightly, enjoying the caresses and play of her slender hands. He lowered his head and kissed her cherry lips deeply, his body gradually stiffening.
Princess Anping, eyes closed, tilted her head back and kissed the young eunuch deeply. Their lips and tongues intertwined, exchanging sweet saliva. Her small, jade-like hands were also busy, moving incessantly below. Gradually, her mind drifted away, lost in a daze.
Suddenly, she cried out in surprise, her hands trembling violently. She looked down in astonishment at the pulsating magical artifact in her hands, completely bewildered.
Li Xiaomin gripped her fragrant shoulders tightly, his eyes closed, moaning softly. He could only feel the pleasurable sensation of holding this beautiful girl tightly; his body was completely immobile, except for that one part.
Princess Anping stared blankly for a few moments until strange fluid splattered onto her hands and face. Only then did she cry out and jump away, looking down at her beautiful clothes, which were now stained with some white substance. Li Xiaomin stood there, eyes closed, as if he were completely paralyzed.
Princess Anping was furious that he had dirtied her beautiful clothes. Taking advantage of the situation, she kicked him hard in the leg, making him fall to the ground and cry out in pain. Princess Anping turned and ran out of the peach grove, shouting fiercely as she ran, "You bad eunuch, just wait till I get my hands on you!"
Li Xiaomin clutched his leg, and it took him a while to get up. He felt the exhilarating pleasure he had just experienced, a pleasure he could never have had with his mother.
Yue Niang suddenly appeared out of nowhere, quietly looking at Li Xiaomin, and said softly, "Master, what did you just do?"
Li Xiaomin blushed, raised his hand, and touched the tall, elegant beauty's hair, coaxing, "Good girl Yue Niang, you must have been peeking again, right? Never mind, I don't understand you. Come, clean me up!"
Yue Niang sighed softly, knelt in front of him, placed her hands on his hips, and carefully cleaned him with her fragrant tongue.

Part Two, Chapter Nineteen: Tigers Attack the City.

Beneath the walls of Jinling City, in a vast, abandoned underground sewer near the city walls, countless rats gathered, a dark, imposing mass, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the rats for a meeting.
After a long wait, finally, an old rat with gray fur appeared on a platform at the highest point, its face glowing. It excitedly shouted in rat language, "My little ones, a great hero has appeared in our great rat clan! He knocked a human to the ground with a single punch! This great hero has now arrived in Jinling City, please give him a round of applause!"
Most of the rats present were not yet fully developed and lacked intelligence. Hearing the old rat's words, they clapped their hands in a rapid, rhythmic clapping. Though the sound was soft, the combined force of thousands of rats clapping created a powerful roar that shook the sewers.
Among the rats, a robust and burly rat stepped forward, walked onto the stage, smiled, waved, and loudly proclaimed, "Brothers, there's no need for such formalities! I'm just like you, a rat, and I've only reached this point through my own cultivation. This is inseparable from your support. Now, I'll tell you all about my cultivation experience..."
The rat demon then launched into a long, eloquent discourse, recounting its centuries of cultivation, its words flowing freely, captivating the rats who listened with rapt attention, some even dozing off.
Normally, it would stand below the stage, listening to the Eastern Mountain Ghost King's loud pronouncements, filled with envy. Now that it had the chance to speak, it certainly wouldn't let it pass. It spoke at length on the stage until its throat was dry, and seeing that the rats below were almost asleep, it finally stopped and got to the point:
"I've come to Jinling this time to find a treasure!"
The old rat, who admired heroes, finally heard its purpose and perked up, quickly asking with its paws clasped, "Great hero, what treasure are you looking for?"
The rat demon smiled and said, "No one knows exactly what this treasure looks like. However, I can say that it's buried very deep beneath Jinling City! This treasure is enormous; you can keep digging down, and you should find it!"
The old rat was slightly startled, its face showing difficulty, and sighed, "Great hero, you don't know, but the area beneath Jinling City is very strange. If we dig down ten zhang (approximately 33 meters), we'll feel a chill all over our bodies." "It's impossible to dig any deeper! Especially near the city center, if we don't dig very deep, we'll freeze, our hands and feet will tremble, and we'll feel scared. We can't dig very deep then!"
The rat, however, shuddered and became excited, shouting, "That's right! That's because the treasure is underground! Don't be afraid, listen to me, keep digging, we'll definitely find it!"
It leaped upwards, reaching the highest point, and roared, "Fellow elders and brothers, if you can find the exact location of that treasure, I will reward you handsomely! Even ten thousand catties of rice and flour will not be spared!"
Those rats were of low intelligence, but they could still understand the words "rice" and "noodles" in rat language. They cried out in delight, clapping and cheering, each one rubbing their hands together, ready to rush underground and make a big splash, determined to find that so-called treasure!
One rat smiled to the sky, thinking fiercely, "You dog eunuch, I'll let you have your fun for a few days. If you find the treasure, the King will wipe out your entire city of Jinling! If you don't find it, I will issue an order to turn Jinling upside down, never letting you have a moment's peace!"
On the Qinhuai River, two wealthy guests arrived at the pleasure boat of Qin Xian'er, the top courtesan. They booked the entire boat, refusing to entertain any other guests.
Inside the cabin, the beautiful courtesan Qin Xian'er, appearing to be in her early twenties, sat solemnly before a table, playing an ancient melody on her zither for her guests' enjoyment.
Opposite her, behind the table, sat Princess Zhenping, dressed as a man, curiously watching this famously beautiful courtesan. Since their last meeting, Qin Xian'er seemed even more mature and beautiful. Although she appeared older, she was more alluring, radiating feminine charm that even she, a woman herself, couldn't help but be captivated by.
Beside Princess Zhenping sat Li Xiaomin, his skin dark, disguised as Li Bai. Slightly embarrassed, he watched Qin Xian'er playing the zither, inwardly groaning. If Princess Zhenping hadn't insisted on hearing Qin Xian'er play, he wouldn't have brought her, lest their rivalry intensify.
However, Qin Xian'er didn't seem particularly angry; her playing simply carried a hint of fierceness, making Li Xiaomin tremble with fear.
The zither Qin Xian'er played was a gift from Li Xiaomin, one of the ancient zithers unearthed from the ground, its sound exquisite. Princess Zhenping was mesmerized, pounding the table in admiration.
She had come here because she remembered Qin Xian'er's beautiful music, and had forced her lover to bring her here. After listening to the piece, Li Xiaomin discussed poetry and songs with Qin Xian'er for a while. When his interest waned, he took his leave.
Li Xiaomin saw her off first, then suddenly excused himself and quietly ran back to the pleasure boat. He found
Qin Xian'er coldly tidying up her guqin at the table. He circled behind her, intending to embrace her and explain what had happened that day. Suddenly, Qin Xian'er spun around and delivered a flying kick. Her embroidered shoe foot slammed heavily into his chest, sending Li Xiaomin flying. His back slammed against the wall with a loud crack, almost shattering the wooden frame. A trickle of blood involuntarily flowed from his mouth.
Staring at Qin Xian'er in agony, Li Xiaomin weakly said, "What are you doing? It's me!"
Qin Xian'er hurriedly withdrew her foot, ran to Li Xiaomin's side to support him, and said with concern, "Does it hurt? I'm so sorry, I didn't know it was you. I thought it was some lecherous scoundrel trying to take advantage of me, so I kicked a little too hard!"
Li Xiaomin almost spat out another mouthful of blood, thinking to himself, "This is called a little hard? I think you used every ounce of your strength! Only I could have done it. If it were anyone else, you would have broken their spine! Humph, I bet you're just taking revenge on me, aren't you?"
But he couldn't say this directly, because Qin Xian'er could deny it, so he could only angrily... He swallowed the blood in anger and forced a dry laugh, "Xian'er, I've come this time with confidential information for you!"
Qin Xian'er's spirits lifted, and her attitude softened considerably. She diligently wiped the blood from his mouth and said with a smile, "Husband, what important information do you have to tell me this time?"
Li Xiaomin snorted and said, "My chest feels really tight, can you rub it for me?"
Seeing that he was being coy, and knowing that she had indeed kicked him too hard, Qin Xian'er had no choice but to help him sit down, stroking his chest and softly saying, "Husband, I used a little too much force just now, are you alright?"
Li Xiaomin groaned and didn't speak. After she rubbed his chest until he felt better, he took her hand and stroked it downwards.
Qin Xian'er blushed, massaging his lower abdomen while asking with concern, "Husband, what kind of information is it?" She was determined that if he dared to lie to her, she would throw him into the Qinhuai River!
Li Xiaomin scoffed, "It's nothing, just that some countries want to attack Shu. It's no big deal."
It turned out that many merchants had come to Jinling City these past few days, purchasing military equipment and supplies. Their targets were corrupt officials in the Ministry of War, who sold them a portion of the Tang Dynasty's stockpiled weapons and other goods, the proceeds of which were then divided among the officials.
Li Xiaomin wasn't unaware of this, but he couldn't be bothered to care. He was currently building a new arsenal, and all the old stock had been sold off. The money earned from these sales was initially deposited in the homes of those officials; he planned to raid their homes later and take all the money for himself.
He ordered his subordinate, Ghost, to capture a merchant. Under severe interrogation, they learned that he was an arms dealer sent by the Chen Kingdom. Because Chen Kingdom's weapon-making technology was relatively backward and its iron ore reserves were scarce, they had to purchase weapons from other countries. Besides purchasing weapons from their ally, Northern Zhao, they also stole weapons from enemy states Western Shu and Southern Tang to prepare for the upcoming war. However
, the target of this war was not Southern Tang, but Western Shu. According to the arms dealer, Chen and Northern Zhao had reached an agreement to jointly attack Western Shu, splitting the territory in half upon victory.
Qin Xian'er was shocked and angry, but Li Xiaomin smiled and said, "Xian'er, don't worry, these merchants won't be able to return to Chen! A band of bandits will attack their returning merchants, robbing them of everything they carry. They won't be able to take anything to Chen, allowing Chen's soldiers to use it to attack Western Shu!"
In the court, behind the beaded curtain, the peerless beauty parted her lips and said gently, "The world today is in dire need of talent. This year, a special imperial examination will be held. What do you, my lords, think?"
Li Xiaomin hurriedly stepped forward, holding his tablet, and presented his memorial. "Your Majesty is right," said Ding Guan, Minister of Revenue. "I also believe that with the current shortage of officials
in the capital, it is very necessary to hold a special imperial examination to demonstrate the Emperor's boundless grace." Ding Guan, the shrewd and resourceful Minister of Revenue, seeing that both Empress Zhou and Li Xiaomin agreed, stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, the Grand Secretary's words are absolutely correct. Moreover, this matter should be handled sooner rather than later; how about holding the examination next month?"
Empress Zhou nodded and said, "Very well. This special imperial examination will be presided over by Minister Li and Minister Ding. You two will handle all the arrangements."
The two bowed and accepted the order. Ding Guan was overjoyed, knowing that this opportunity would allow him to further strengthen his relationship with Li Xiaomin.
After descending from the palace, Li Xiaomin and Ding Guan discussed the imperial examinations. As they approached their carriages, Ding Guan suddenly said, "Your Excellency, if you don't mind the simplicity of my humble abode, why don't we come to my residence for a simple meal and discuss this matter together?"
Li Xiaomin nodded in agreement, and the two boarded their carriages. The two processions, in a grand procession, headed towards Ding's residence.
Inside Ding's residence, a lavish banquet was prepared for the Grand Secretary and Lord Ding to feast together.
Li Xiaomin sat behind the table, drinking with Ding Guan while secretly pondering, "This Minister of Revenue, back in our time, would be a high-ranking official, wouldn't he? He'd be considered a high-ranking cadre, standing high above the people, using their hard-earned money to enrich himself. I wonder what his wife looks like?"
His thoughts drifted back to his visit to Bai Suzhen's house yesterday:
a beautiful woman dressed in mourning, wielding a mourning stick, had once again driven out the well-meaning, incognito Grand Secretary who had come to offer condolences, angrily rebuking him, "Sir, we are a humble family, we dare not entertain a court official like you! If you really enjoy seeking amusement, why not go to that gossipy Minister Ding? His wife is also famously beautiful!"
Li Xiaomin was taken aback, then retorted, "Hey, what do you mean by that? Are you trying to frame someone else? Is this how a virtuous woman should act?"
Bai Suzhen was speechless, enraged and embarrassed. She turned around, grabbed a pair of scissors, and grabbed Li Xiaomin, stabbing him. Li Xiaomin couldn't dodge in time and almost pierced his hand. Even though he dodged quickly, his clothes were still torn, greatly angering him.
At that moment, Li Xiaomin was helpless and didn't want to force himself on her. He could only sigh, dodge Bai Suzhen's pursuing scissors, and turn to leave, muttering sullenly, "I just came to relieve your boredom, kindly helping you to dispel your sorrow, and you still act like this? It's like a dog biting Lü Dongbin! It's a pity you're not a white snake, otherwise this humble monk would have used boundless magic to subdue you snake demon! Humph, isn't it because you blamed Minister Ding for saying your sister was beautiful that you caused all this trouble? Later, I'll definitely promote him, give him a raise, and oh right, I'll also have to see if his wife is really that beautiful!"
Sitting in Minister Ding's house, Li Xiaomin suddenly remembered this incident again. Raising his cup, Li Xiaomin laughed drunkenly, "I heard last time that Lord Ding's wife is very beautiful. Is it true? I'm really curious. Could I possibly meet her?"
Lord Ding, already half-drunk, was startled to hear the Grand Secretary want to see his wife. He was about to refuse when he suddenly remembered, "It's just a meeting, nothing serious. Besides, although he likes women, he's still a eunuch. What could possibly happen?"
He looked at Li Xiaomin with pity, nodded in agreement, and turned to his servant, saying, "Quickly, go and fetch the lady!"
Actually, there was no need to go far. The lady was hiding in a nearby room, peeking at the famous Grand Secretary through a curtain.
Most people were very curious about this renowned Grand Secretary, but Lady Ding was especially curious, constantly wondering how a eunuch could have achieved such a great feat. Hearing that he was currently feasting at his home, she couldn't resist her curiosity and secretly watched from the side. Indeed, seeing was believing; this Grand Secretary was extremely handsome, a hundred times more beautiful than any of the servants in her household. It was a pity he was a eunuch; otherwise, marrying him would be a truly fulfilling life!
Just as she was feeling a surge of heat, she suddenly heard the Grand Secretary say he wanted to see her. Overjoyed, Madam Ding hurriedly went out the side door, circled around a distance, and returned to the banquet hall with her maid. She curtsied to Li Xiaomin and said sweetly, "This concubine greets the Grand Secretary!"
Li Xiaomin, slightly drunk, looked over and saw a beautiful woman standing inside. She appeared to be over thirty, yet still exceptionally beautiful, her body alluring and seductive, exuding the charm of a mature woman.
Li Xiaomin was slightly taken aback, then swayed as he stood up, laughing drunkenly, "Please sit, Madam!"
Madam Ding smiled charmingly, sat down at the table, not too close, not too far from Li Xiaomin, raised her cup to drink with him, and chatted casually.
Although Ding Guan didn't like his wife talking to others, this was the Grand Secretary, and a eunuch at that, so he didn't interfere. Instead, he joined in with a few jokes, and the three of them enjoyed themselves immensely, drinking to their hearts' content.
That night, Li Xiaomin, like the last time at Di Renji's house, got very drunk. He lay on the table, fast asleep, unable to get up.
Ding Guan had also drunk quite a bit and had long since crawled under the table. Madam Ding, however, was not to be outdone by any man. Even half-drunk, she stubbornly insisted on staying.
Seeing that the two were both drunk, Madam Ding instructed the servants to help Minister Ding to rest. As for personally helping the Minister, she refused. Because of his fondness for younger women, Ding Guan hadn't visited her room for several years. Moreover, the two had argued a few months ago about the Minister's favoritism towards a concubine, and hadn't reconciled yet. Therefore, they rarely spoke, except today when a guest of interest arrived, so they could avoid revealing their true feelings.
However, things were different for Li Xiaomin. Madam Ding personally helped the heavily drunk Li Xiaomin to his feet, and with several maids, escorted him to the guest room. She ordered the maids to quickly attend to the Minister, while she herself closed the door, took a towel, soaked it in warm water, and carefully wiped Li Xiaomin's face.
Li Xiaomin, feigning drunkenness, secretly observed the beautiful woman through his slits. He saw that although she was over thirty, she was still radiant and had a stunning figure. He couldn't help but secretly reach out and lightly touch her full buttocks.
Madam Ding was turning around to wet a towel when she felt a hand touching her body. Startled, she turned and saw Li Xiaomin still fast asleep with his eyes closed. Puzzled, she didn't think much of it, wiping his face clean with the towel. Staring at his handsome features, she was mesmerized.
Such a handsome young man was her favorite. However, the Ding household rules were strict; even servants weren't allowed to freely enter the inner quarters, let alone Madam Ding have the opportunity to be close to a man. This time, she had only been able to be alone with this handsome young man because of Ding's drunkenness. Unfortunately, the young man was a eunuch, and even alone in a room, she couldn't satisfy her desires.
Thinking of this, she suddenly became curious and thought, "Since he's asleep, I might as well take off his clothes and see what a eunuch's body is like, then I can put them back on later!"
Slightly drunk, emboldened by the alcohol, she reached out her soft hands and gently caressed Li Xiaomin's body.
Li Xiaomin pretended to be asleep, closing his eyes and ignoring her. He felt her hand already on his belt, and couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, marveling at how lonely this Minister's wife was, not even sparing a lowly eunuch like himself.
His thoughts then turned to the Minister, thinking, "Hmph, high-ranking officials like this, who drain the people's wealth, are the people's mortal enemies. Since I have the opportunity, of course I must teach them a lesson—that's what a righteous person does!"
With a righteous heart, Li Xiaomin remained motionless, feeling a slight chill in his lower body, only to find that Madam Ding had already removed his clothes.
Seeing the handsome young man's manhood, the beautiful woman in her thirties was dumbfounded, sobering up considerably.
What she saw before her was truly terrifying; this alone was enough to cause countless deaths, and countless families would be wiped out because of this secret!
Madam Ding stood there stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought, "If he finds out I've discovered his secret, he might kill me to silence me, or even wipe out my entire family!"
In a panic, Madam Ding hurriedly reached out with trembling hands to pull up Li Xiaomin's trousers. Her eyes immediately fell on that terrifying thing, and she swallowed hard, feeling her mouth go dry, almost wanting to reach out and grasp it.
Her hand involuntarily touched it there, and she knew something was wrong. She looked up in alarm and saw Li Xiaomin staring at her with wide eyes.
Madam Ding couldn't help but scream, and just as she was about to run away, iron-like hands gripped her shoulders tightly, rendering her immobile.
Madam Ding's beautiful face was filled with panic and fear as she screamed, "Don't kill me! I didn't see anything!"
Li Xiaomin chuckled inwardly, but frowned, saying, "Sigh, what a hassle. Madam actually saw it! I'm not a heartless person, but I really can't rest easy knowing that Madam knows this!"
Madam Ding stared at him with wide, bright eyes, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration. She lowered her head and swallowed the forbidden object whole!
Her fragrant tongue swirled, her red lips sucked, and Madam Ding savored it for a while before raising her head and saying sadly, "Lord Chancellor, now, you should believe me, right?"
Li Xiaomin inwardly praised her shrewdness. This move was called "pledge of allegiance." Knowing the secret meant he had also committed a crime, making her an accomplice, so he naturally wasn't afraid of her informing on him. Even if he hadn't intended to kill her to silence her, this clever and beautiful woman would have completely extinguished his murderous intent.
But he still frowned and sighed, "Madam Ding, this matter is of great importance, and I still cannot rest assured!"
Madam Ding stared blankly at him, noticing the smile in his eyes, and realized what he wanted to do. She felt extremely embarrassed and reached out her slender hand to stroke his body, thinking to herself, "Such a handsome young man, it is my blessing to spend a night with him! It's just that he is more than half my age, which is really a bit embarrassing."
Seeing that she remained motionless for a long time, Li Xiaomin frowned, his eyes flashing with cold light. Madam Ding was thrown into a panic, hastily removing her clothes, revealing her snow-white and sexy body. Trembling, she climbed onto Li Xiaomin's body, her slender hands groping and carefully supporting her, slowly becoming one with him.
"Roar!"
A shrill roar echoed in the wilderness outside Jinling City. The roar was so loud that even the guards in the distant city were startled.
Immediately afterward, the frenzied roars of tigers resounded throughout the wilderness. The guards on the city walls trembled upon hearing it, wondering how many tigers had come from outside the city.
At this moment, behind a small hill outside Jinling City, dozens of tigers with white foreheads and bulging eyes roared and howled wildly in the wilderness, baring their fangs and claws, each with fierce eyes, as if they wanted to devour someone.
A colossal tiger, more than twice the size of its kind, stood atop a hill. Its massive muscles seemed poised to burst from its rough hide. High on the summit, it roared fiercely towards Jinling, its eyes blazing with savage malice, its chilling aura palpable.
Gazing at the bustling city, the tiger roared again, leaping down the hill and landing easily. It then strode off towards Jinling.
Suddenly, a yellow shadow drifted down from the sky, flew onto the giant tiger's back, and forcefully grabbed its tail, crying out in a panic, "Tiger Boss, don't panic, let's talk this over!"
The giant tiger, its brow furrowed and its face contorted with ferocity, lashed out with its tail, knocking over the monkey that dared to climb onto it with a thud. It roared, "You damned monkey, what are you doing climbing onto this general's body?"
The monkey screamed and collapsed onto the tiger, dizzy and disoriented. Just as it was about to answer, it saw the thick tail stand up again. Startled, it tried to dodge, but it was too late; the tiger's tail fell like a pillar, striking it with a thud. The tiger slapped the monkey's forehead, causing it to scream again. The monkey pounced on the tiger's back, clutching its fur and hissing, "Tiger Boss, don't touch my tail! Let's talk this out!"
The tiger raised its head, gazing at the distant city, and roared, "Speak quickly! I don't have time to waste!"
The monkey rubbed its aching head, groaning, "Tiger Boss, you're too cruel! I have two big welts!"
After catching its breath, seeing the tiger's renewed impatience, it hurriedly said, "Tiger Boss, I was thinking, since the little mouse has already gone into the city, shouldn't we wait and see if he has any news?"
The tiger roared... "You mean that dead rat? Bah! That thing is no better than that dead monkey! Master has been waiting here for so long, and it hasn't made a sound. Does it expect Master to wait here forever? Dream on! When has General Tiger ever waited for a sneaky little rat? Bah! Today I'll go into the city, bite off that eunuch's head, and bring it to the King. Why bother with all this trouble!"
Seeing the tiger's anger, the monkey general didn't dare to speak recklessly and could only smile obsequiously, "Boss Tiger, shouldn't we wait a couple more days? Maybe the rat still has something it hasn't finished doing inside? Besides, the King has given orders... " "We have to take it one by one!"
The giant tiger roared angrily, "Bullshit! I think you're asking for a beating, aren't you? Do you think I don't know you're afraid I'll kill the eunuch and steal your thunder, so you're trying to find an excuse to stop me, right?"
The monkey's face changed drastically, and he chuckled dryly, "Tiger Boss, look at what you're saying, we're brothers from the same mountain, how could you have such thoughts! Come, come, let me groom your fur, so you won't be so angry!"
Its monkey paws carefully stroked the tiger's coarse fur, all the way down to its rump, smoothing the fur on the tiger's buttocks as it stroked it.
Enraged that the monkey had touched its rear, the tiger roared furiously, its tail sweeping like an iron rod, knocking the monkey to the ground with a thud. With a flying kick, it sent the audacious monkey flying. Turning back, it roared, "Men, follow me! Let's raze Jinling to the ground!"
Dozens of tigers roared in unison, following behind the giant tiger, charging swiftly towards Jinling City!
The monkey fell to the ground, groaning in pain. Looking up at the large group of tigers rushing away, it gritted its teeth and said, "You stupid tiger, you bit Lü Dongbin! I wonder how you'll explain this to the King if you fail!"
A rabbit suddenly appeared beside it like a ghost, grinning and sneering, "Monkey! Have you lost your mind? You dare touch a tiger's butt?"
Hearing this, the monkey perked up, lying on the ground and laughing loudly, "That's right! I wanted to touch the tiger's butt! People say 'don't touch a tiger's butt,' but today I reached out and touched it directly, and nothing happened, right? Haha, ouch!"
But this laughter aggravated its wound, causing it to clutch its injury and curl up on the ground, howling in pain.
The rabbit leaped onto the monkey's back, stood on tiptoe, and watched the tiger's retreating figure. It sneered, "Foolish tiger! A fool is a fool. Doesn't he think things through? If that eunuch were so easy to deal with, would the King have sent so many monsters to fight him?"
The tiger horde galloped wildly, soon entering the vicinity of Jinling. It was
early morning. A traveler was walking along the road, carrying a heavy load on his shoulder—a villager from outside the city rushing into the city to sell his goods.
A tiger's roar came from behind. The traveler's face changed color. He turned around and saw an enormous tiger roaring furiously, charging towards him. Terrified, his hands and feet went cold. He dropped his load and fled towards the city gate.
He hadn't run far before the tiger appeared, leaping like it was riding the clouds, roaring repeatedly. In a few strides, it caught up with the traveler, grabbed his shoulder, and slammed him to the ground.
The pedestrian screamed in agony, but before he could even struggle, the giant tiger lowered its head and bit down hard, tearing half his head off with a snap. Blood and brains splattered all over the ground.
The soldiers guarding the city walls, witnessing this horrific scene from afar, were terrified, their hands and feet turning ice-cold, their bodies trembling violently. Under the orders of their squad leader, they shouted for their brothers guarding the gates outside to escape into the city, quickly raised the drawbridge, and closed the city gates.
The giant tiger, having killed the pedestrian with a single bite, didn't bother to eat him. It opened its blood-red maw, spat out half its head with a "plop," and roared wildly, shaking the distant city walls. Then, it sprinted away, reaching the moat in the blink of an eye, where it roared and howled at the soldiers on the opposite city walls.
The soldiers on the city wall, trembling with fear, breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the giant yellow tiger stop by the moat. They were thankful they had closed the gate in time; otherwise, their entire squad might not have been enough for this one tiger.
Before they could even finish celebrating, the tiger roared, spread its four paws, and leaped. A few wispy yellow clouds appeared beneath its feet, carrying its massive body across the moat and landing outside the city gate. Being
a demon, its magical power wasn't strong enough to create clouds like the powerful demons of its predecessors who had cultivated for thousands of years, but it still possessed some flying abilities. Leaping across the wide moat was a piece of cake.
Without pausing, its massive head slammed into the high drawbridge outside the city gate with a deafening crash that shook the entire gate, nearly knocking the soldiers on the wall to the ground.
The soldiers on the city wall gasped in shock, staggering and crying out in panic, fearing that the giant tiger would smash a hole in the city gate.
They clung tightly to the wall, barely maintaining their balance, and peered down to see the giant tiger with its piercing eyes and white forehead clutching its head, groaning in pain on the ground outside the city, as if it had been badly injured.
With its immense strength and steel head, it wouldn't have been impossible for it to smash a hole in the drawbridge and the city gate together; however, centuries ago, the sorcerers of the Turtle Mountain Sect had reinforced the city gate with magic, and thereafter, they had reinforced it every ten years. No demonic power could damage the city gate. Otherwise, how could the Tang capital have been safe for centuries?
Now, although the Turtle Mountain Sect had been completely wiped out, the magic on the city gate remained. Even with the giant tiger's demonic power, it couldn't cause any damage to the gate; instead, it was left dizzy and disoriented, almost suffering a concussion.
It clutched its head, rolled on the ground for a while, then lay down, panting heavily.
Seeing an opportunity, the captain of the city guards hurriedly ordered, "Fire arrows! Shoot it dead quickly! Don't let it block the gate, or we'll all be trapped!"
The soldiers agreed and hurriedly drew their bows and fired arrows at the giant tiger.
Arrows rained down like locusts, ricocheting off course and striking the giant tiger, yet failing to pierce its flesh. They were deflected by its thick, steel-like hide and fell to the ground.
To the tiger, this was merely a tickle, but it ignited its ferocity. With a roar, it leaped to its feet, wildly lashing its claws, slashing away the incoming arrows. It strode towards the city wall, howling as it climbed upwards.
Its claws, like steel hooks, slammed into the wall with a deafening crash, sending debris flying. The sturdy wall was riddled with holes from its claws, its sharp, steel-like nails protruding into them. Its
other claw also lashed out, gripping the wall. The two claws alternated their upward clawing motion, while the lower claws, not idle, used the holes created by the front claws to quickly climb upwards. In an instant, it had reached the foot of the wall.
The captain defending the city, his face pale with fear, shouted an order for his men to attack.
The soldiers trembled, frantically thrusting their spears from the crenellations at the white-browed tiger!
The sharp spear tips pierced its body, carrying the frenzied power of the soldiers' terrified counterattack—fiercely powerful, yet utterly harmless to the tiger. With a crack, the spears snapped. One soldier, exerting too much force, crashed headfirst into the city wall. Had it not been for the wall's protection, he would have fallen to his death, his brains splattering.
The tiger swiftly climbed the wall, swung its paw, and slammed it down on the soldier's head. A scream rang out; the soldier's brains, splattered with white fluid, had not escaped its fate of exploding.
The tiger, standing atop the wall, steadied itself, and with a swipe of its paw, scooped up the soldier who had just stabbed it, roared angrily, and tossed the body behind it, far over its shoulder. A long time later, a thud was heard; the soldier had landed outside the moat.
Meanwhile, the dozens of tigers had also reached the moat, roaring and baring their fangs across the river, using their roars to embolden their leader and intimidate the enemy soldiers. However, the moat was quite wide, and not wanting to get their fur wet, they waited patiently, knowing their leader would surely find a way to get them across.
Seeing the soldier thrown from inside the city, the tigers roared with delight, knowing this was a treat from their leader. They pounced, pinning down the half-dead soldier, tearing and biting him mercilessly, quickly devouring him until only half remained.
On the city walls, the frenzied battle continued. Giant tigers charged into the crowd, attacking the panicked soldiers. With each swing of their claws, screams of agony rang out. Soldiers had their weapons broken by the sharp claws, and with another swipe, their skulls were crushed. Those who survived were left with broken bones and limbs, writhing and howling in agony on the ground.
The tiger's rough fur was like incredibly sturdy armor; swords and spears could not even tear a small wound against it. Instead, under its massive, swift claws, the fur snapped in two with a crisp crack, looking like inferior pieces of thin wood.
Fighting such an impenetrable foe, watching their comrades fall one after another to its claws, the defending soldiers were terrified. With a shout, they turned and fled, desperately trying to escape towards the city walls. Several soldiers, in their haste, lost their footing and tumbled into the wall, breaking their legs. Clutching their broken legs, they howled in agony.
The tiger pursued, clawing and biting, claiming several more lives. Then, it stopped its chase, turned to the drawbridge's iron chains, extended its massive claws, turned the winch, and lowered the drawbridge.
Among the fleeing soldiers, some dared to look back, only to be horrified to see the tiger performing this physically demanding and skillful task. They gasped in shock, their eyes filled with bewilderment and panic, wondering if they were dreaming. How could tigers become so intelligent? With such clever tigers, could humanity possibly survive? With
a crash, the drawbridge collapsed, sending a cloud of dust billowing across the ground.
Dozens of tigers outside the moat roared with joy, leaping onto the drawbridge and charging towards the city gate.
Before they even reached it, the gate slowly opened. Inside the city, a massive figure, beaming with joy, greeted them—who else could it be but their leader, the tiger general?
Standing inside the city gate, the tiger general stretched out his massive body, raised his powerful forearms, and roared, "My little ones, charge with me! Let's storm the imperial palace and devour the eunuchs and all the officials, leaving nothing but dust. Even the emperor himself will have to be bitten first!"
Dozens of tigers roared in unison, following behind the giant tiger, galloping excitedly along the main road towards the city center.
The people inside the city were doing business on the streets when they suddenly saw a group of soldiers running in from outside, crying and screaming in panic. They were terrified, wondering if there was another rebellion. Then, they saw a group of tigers baring their teeth and roaring as they ran down the street. They were all terrified, their faces turning pale, and they fled in panic, crying out loud.
Some clever ones turned and fled, scrambling into any house for refuge; others, however, found themselves behind the walls of wealthy homes, unable to find a way in, and terrified, ran frantically through the streets, kicking off their shoes without daring to pause.
The tigers raced along the streets, not biting those beside them or behind them, but chasing after the fleeing crowds, tearing and biting, knocking them to the ground, trampling them underfoot, not even bothering to look at their remains, just charging forward towards the imperial palace!
The fleeing soldiers cried out in despair, watching the pack of tigers closing in, their roars seemingly right beside them, their faces turning deathly pale, screaming and crying, knowing their lives were about to be devoured by these tigers!

Chapter Twenty of Part Two: The Battle Between Man and Tiger.

It was their fate to perish. A patrol team emerged, a force of elite soldiers led by Lin Zhongli, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard. Seeing this, they were horrified and hastily ordered their men to form ranks, letting the fleeing soldiers pass. At the same time, they shouted, "Quickly, go to the palace and report this to the Grand Chancellor!"
The soldiers, overjoyed at their aid, wept with joy, supporting each other as they desperately ran towards the Golden Palace, using every ounce of strength they had.
The giant tiger, leading its men, charged forward, suddenly seeing over a hundred soldiers ahead, each wielding a long spear, arrayed in the street. The sharp spear tips all pointed forward, forming a forest of spear points directly in their direction.
Tigers hate hedgehogs most of all. Before they became demons, they couldn't even get their hands on a hedgehog. Now, seeing these people setting up a hedgehog formation again stirred up painful memories of the past, and they were filled with rage. They roared and leaped into the air, their feet creating yellow smoke as they strode up to the soldiers. With a powerful swing of their tiger claws, they snapped several spears in front of them in half.
Lin Zhongli's expression changed upon seeing this, but he refused to retreat. He shouted, "Forward! Thrust!"
These soldiers were all elite troops he had trained. Although they saw the tiger's ferocity, they gritted their teeth and shouted in agreement, stepping forward and thrusting their steel spears straight at the tiger, stabbing it hard in the body with a series of thuds.
The giant tiger roared furiously, seemingly oblivious to the pain. It swung its claws, snapping spears one by one, then slammed its paw down, striking a soldier so hard he coughed up blood and fell to the side.
Under its ferocious attack, a gap was punched through the densely packed spear formation, allowing the tiger to rush in and wreak havoc!
Lin Zhongli roared, leaping forward, drawing his saber, and slashing down fiercely. A flash of cold light, and the blade struck the "King" character on the tiger's head.
The tiger felt a deafening roar, its head spinning. This human possessed extraordinary strength, even inflicting injury on its ferocity.
Enraged, it lashed out with its massive claws, aiming for Lin Zhongli's chest. The claw's speed was unparalleled, making it difficult for Lin Zhongli to dodge. He hastily dodged, but the tiger's claws struck his shoulder, sending him flying.
The tiger general roared, about to give chase, but the soldiers beside him risked their lives, thrusting their spears to block its path. A loyal personal guard picked up the wounded and unconscious Lin Zhongli and fled to the side to save the general's life.
The tiger general slashed with its claws, sending the soldiers flying one by one. Dozens of other tigers arrived, joining the fray, scattering and felling the soldiers. Several tigers were pierced by spears, bleeding profusely, licking their wounds and roaring loudly. Blocked
by their advance, the gatekeepers had desperately fled to the front of the Golden Palace. The palace guards, seeing their disheveled state, were astonished. After checking their identification tags, they ordered them to lay down their weapons, gave them a quick search, and then brought them into the palace to report the events to the Grand Chancellor.
At this moment, Li Xiaomin was in the hall, respectfully presenting his memorial to his beautiful lover, reporting on the political affairs of the past few days, when he suddenly heard a commotion outside. He frowned slightly and turned to look.
The civil and military officials were also slightly startled and turned to look outside the hall, only to be shocked as well:
several soldiers had tumbled and crawled in from outside the hall, their bodies covered in dust and blood, all looking disheveled and their faces filled with fear and panic. They fell to the ground, shouting incoherently, too terrified to speak.
The soldier at the front remained relatively calm. After catching his breath, he turned and pointed outside, shouting, "Big, big, giant, giant, those, they..."
Li Xiaomin was bewildered and frowned, scolding, "What 'big, giant'? Explain yourself!" He couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine: "Big, giant, giant? Could it be those 'big' authors from the websites and even more famous 'giant' authors who have come to kill us? That doesn't make sense!"
The soldier, terrified by the Grand Secretary's rebuke, whimpered repeatedly but could no longer speak, only pointing outside the hall, trembling uncontrollably.
Li Xiaomin frowned, no longer questioning him, and strode out of the hall. Hearing loud howls and human screams outside the palace, he was also alarmed. He silently recited an incantation, and a faint blue cloud naturally rose beneath him, carrying him upwards.
Before the Golden Palace, the Grand Secretary ascended into the air, looking down in astonishment. The soldiers and officials below prostrated themselves, marveling at the Grand Secretary's magical powers. Even a few ministers and generals harboring rebellious intentions were disheartened, knowing they couldn't threaten the Grand Secretary's life until they found a powerful sorcerer.
Floating in mid-air, Li Xiaomin's gaze passed over the high palace walls. Looking into the distance, he saw dozens of tigers, led by a giant tiger, charging straight towards the palace gate, leaving behind a trail of bloodied soldiers' corpses. He thought to himself in surprise, "So it's giant tigers and big tigers, not those authors coming to kill us!"
Although not as unbelievable as being attacked by the authors, these tigers would still require some effort to deal with. Li Xiaomin chanted an incantation, and a light blue cloud floated beneath his feet, carrying him slowly towards the palace gate.
The giant tiger led its minions straight to the palace gates, about to pounce on the guards, when suddenly a figure descended above them. Looking up, they saw a young man dressed in court attire. The tiger roared, brandishing its claws, "Who goes there? State your name!"
The soldiers, terrified by the tiger's human speech, turned pale and hastily formed a defensive formation, trembling as they faced the strange beast.
Li Xiaomin landed on the ground, sneering, "I am Li Xiaomin, the Grand Chancellor of the Tang Dynasty! What kind of monster are you, daring to enter the imperial city? Aren't you afraid of my powerful magic?"
Hearing this, the tiger trembled, its eyes lighting up with wild joy, shouting, "So it's you, you damned eunuch! Alright, alright! It's like finding a needle in a haystack! Kill you, and Jinling City will be ours!"
Without another word, it leaped forward, wielding its claws, aiming directly at Li Xiaomin.
Li Xiaomin snorted coldly, twisted his body, and retreated to the side with lightning speed. He casually drew his soft sword from
his waist and slashed down like the wind. This sword strike was extremely fast. In a flash of cold light, the blade had already struck the tiger's claw heavily. Blood spurted out, and the giant tiger roared in pain, retreating to the side. It looked down, trembling, only to find that a finger had been severed, blood gushing out like a fountain.
The tiger general raised its head, glaring angrily at Li Xiaomin, its heart filled with horror. It knew that the sword in Li Xiaomin's hand was an extremely sharp blade capable of cutting through a hair with a single blow. Combined with Li Xiaomin's immortal power, even if it was invulnerable to weapons, it would not be able to withstand his attack.
The soldiers behind him cheered loudly, excitedly shouting that the Grand Secretary had wounded the monster with a single move.
After shouting for a while, they suddenly remembered: the Grand Secretary carried a sharp blade, yet he also carried a weapon in the palace. This was unreasonable. If it were taken seriously, the Grand Secretary might also be guilty.
Hearing their cries weaken, Li Xiaomin turned around, glared at them, and already guessed what they were thinking.
The soldiers trembled at his glare, prostrating themselves on the ground, terrified that the Grand Chancellor would silence them. Fortunately, some civilians nearby were hiding and watching; even if they were silenced, not so many could be killed, and their lives were still somewhat protected.
The tiger general extended its huge, rough red tongue, licking the blood from its claws, then glared angrily at Li Xiaomin, hissing, and pounced again, its claws swinging wildly, aiming to smash Li Xiaomin's head to pieces!
Li Xiaomin slipped away like a fish, leaping back and using his strength to fly onto a nearby tree, shouting, "Demon, dare you come this way and fight me!"
He chanted an incantation, his body floating into the air, flying far away to land on a small marble bridge some distance from the palace gate, turning back to look at the giant tiger with a slight, cold smile.
The tiger general, unwilling to let him go, remembered his boast to the Ghost King of Dongshan that he must take Li Xiaomin's head to
prove himself. Roaring loudly, he charged forward, yellow clouds rising from his feet, his speed reaching incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, he pounced on the bridge, swinging his claws at Li Xiaomin. Li Xiaomin, already on high alert, saw the tiger general approach and unleashed his diligently practiced swordsmanship, countless crystalline blades piercing the air, instantly enveloping the tiger general's massive body.
The tiger general, startled, hastily raised his claws to meet the attack. His claws, imbued with demonic power, clashed heavily with the crystalline blades, producing a clanging sound and sparks flying. Under the surge of demonic power, he was temporarily unharmed by the blades.
Li Xiaomin's sword strike, imbued with immense power, swept across the sky, slashing down from all directions. It forced the tiger general back several steps, leaving it wounded in multiple places. Although its demonic energy permeated its body, its skin was torn and bleeding profusely, staining its deep yellow fur crimson.
The tiger general roared in pain and furiously lashed out with its claws, launching a frenzied counterattack. Seeing its desperate struggle, Li Xiaomin dared not underestimate it. He parried with his sword, using a "guiding" technique to redirect its claws, before slamming his sword heavily onto the stone railing of the small bridge. A deafening roar followed, sending stone fragments flying.
Human and demon engaged in a fierce battle on the small bridge, their sharp claws and swords swung wildly in all directions, slamming heavily against the stone railing. The resounding booms and flying stone fragments quickly destroyed most of the bridge's railing.

Part Two, Chapter Twenty-One: The Heavenly Maiden of Love and Desire.

The tigers that had followed to cheer on the killings reached the bridge. Seeing the fierce battle on the bridge, they roared and wanted to join in. However, the bridge was narrow, and they could only see the tiger general's back, unable to pass by and attack the human. They jumped and roared in desperation.
Zhang Qing, the commander of the Imperial Guard, had arrived after hearing the news. He led a large number of crossbowmen to surround the area, aiming their crossbows at the tigers but not firing, fearing that if their lord was injured in the hail of arrows, they would be doomed.
Li Xiaomin fought a fierce battle with the tiger general on the bridge, but he held back his strength and did not fight to the death. The tiger general, however, was becoming increasingly exhausted. He thought to himself, "He is indeed powerful! No wonder even someone as skilled as the Netherworld King fell to him!"
Thinking of his own abilities, he realized that he could never match his master's sworn brother. Fear rose in his heart, and the tiger general's immense strength gradually dissipated. His bulging eyes looked around erratically, searching for an escape route.
Li Xiaomin, however, was already brimming with fighting spirit, finding the battle incredibly exhilarating. He roared, "Demon, take this!"
With this roar, his exquisite swordsmanship erupted from his hand, a furious onslaught that swept over the tiger general from all directions.
The tiger general was terrified, desperately trying to defend itself with its claws, but it was no match for the ferocious attacks from all sides. Li Xiaomin's sharp sword pierced through its defenses, slashing wildly across its body, blood gushing from its large wounds.
The tiger general trembled violently in pain, roaring and howling, its claws digging into the ground as it retreated frantically, shouting, "Minions, hold him off!"
Seeing their leader wounded, the other tigers roared and pounced, blocking the bridge and preventing Li Xiaomin from pursuing their leader.
Li Xiaomin stood on the bridge, looking down at the roaring, snarling tigers below. He smiled coldly, thinking to himself, "So many tigers, it's a pity to kill them; only in this era are there so many wild tigers. In our time, tigers were all eaten, where would we find so many? Any one of these tigers could feed a zoo for years!"
"But if we don't kill them, are we just going to let these tigers run rampant in Jinling City? This world doesn't yet have the material and social foundation to build a zoo. Anyway, there are so many wild tigers, killing a few hundred is nothing!"
A murderous intent flashed in Li Xiaomin's eyes. The handsome young man stood proudly on the small bridge, surrounded by gentle breezes and flowing water, yet unable to conceal the murderous intent on his face, chilling everyone to the bone!
He raised his head, let out a long roar, and leaped into the air, instantly bursting into the pack of tigers. His body moved like a fluttering leaf, darting about with lightning speed. The crystalline blade in his hand flashed out like the wind, striking the tigers in the chest before they could even see him, piercing their hearts with a soft thud. He then withdrew it in a flash, casually stabbing another tiger in the chest.
This handsome young man, like the wind, weaved through the tigers, dodging their sharp claws. In an instant, he had fought his way in and out of the pack seven times, then suddenly leaped back, standing proudly on the small bridge, hands behind his back, looking down at the tigers with a slight, cold smile.
The tigers, their faces drained of color, stared at each other in disbelief. Suddenly, they all let out a bloodcurdling scream and collapsed to the ground, blood gushing from their chests.
Beneath the once relatively clean bridge, tiger blood instantly stained the ground, turning the fur of a group of large, white-browed tigers crimson, a truly gruesome sight.
Soldiers and civilians, armed and on high alert, or hiding to watch, were all stunned, trembling slightly. Looking at the Grand Secretary, hands clasped behind his back and a cold smile on his face, a surge of reverence welled up within them; they almost prostrated themselves, offering the utmost respect to this extraordinary figure.
The tiger general, licking his wounds and panting heavily, was about to deliver the final blow to Li Xiaomin when he looked up and saw his men slaughtered beneath the bridge. His heart trembled with fear, and he roared to the sky, his feet creating a cloud of yellow light as he soared into the air, lunging straight at Li Xiaomin! Even at the cost of his own life, he would avenge his loyal men!
As the tiger pounced on the clouds, a cold smile appeared on Li Xiaomin's handsome, aloof face. He leaped into the air, carried by azure clouds, and shot towards the tiger general's path!
Above the yellow clouds, the tiger general roared with heart-wrenching fury, wielding its claws and lunging forward at Li Xiaomin. It had poured all its demonic power into its claws, hoping to injure Li Xiaomin with a single blow, or to slam him down with it, crushing them to pieces—that would fulfill the mission given by the king!
A gust of wind surged around Li Xiaomin, causing his long hair to fly and his robes to billow. With a powerful arm, he raised a crystalline blade high, roared, and gathered all his immortal power into the blade, unleashing a devastating attack that swept towards the tiger general!
In the sky, a flash of cold light and a series of shrill cries echoed. Soldiers and civilians watching from all sides were dumbfounded, staring up at the fierce battle, utterly shocked and forgetting everything else!
A deafening roar came from the sky, the fierce cry of the tiger general resounding through the heavens and earth!
With a thud, everyone saw a blur before their eyes as a torrent of blood rained down, flying in all directions, mixed with pieces of limbs, splattering onto the ground and onto the onlookers. The blood rain soaked many people, and even the soldiers holding shields, desperately trying to shield themselves, couldn't stop the blood from falling on them.
After the bloody light subsided, the tall figure of the Grand Secretary appeared in the sky. He smiled, hands behind his back, slowly descending from the air. Blood dripped from the sword on his back, staining the river below the bridge crimson.
His slender figure slowly descended onto the bridge. Looking at the limbs of the tiger general he had cleaved with a single sword stroke, he sneered inwardly, "Still dare to play with me? Hmph, even if I bring your whole family out, it won't do any good!"
The surrounding crowd stared wide-eyed and gaped at the Grand Secretary, speechless with shock.
Suddenly, a commoner prostrated himself on the ground, kowtowing violently and shouting, "Grand Secretary, you displayed your divine might, slaying the tiger and protecting the city! I will erect a memorial tablet for you, burning incense and kowtowing before it every day, praying only for your long life and eternal peace, that you may forever guard Jinling!"
With a resounding crash, all the commoners and soldiers fell to the ground, kowtowing frantically, loudly praising the Grand Secretary's divine achievements.
Li Xiaomin stood on the bridge, smiling and nodding, but inwardly sighing, "It's a pity I killed so easily that I didn't leave any survivors. Alas, when a country is about to perish, monsters will surely emerge. Does this mean the Southern Tang Dynasty is truly doomed?"
He sheathed his sword, slowly walked down the small bridge, stepped over the corpses of the tigers, and strolled towards the palace gate.
The soldiers and civilians blocking his way quickly made way, kneeling respectfully to his side, kowtowing in gratitude for saving him from a life-or-death struggle with the tigers.
Inside the palace, the Imperial Guards and palace attendants, seeing the Grand Secretary approaching, all prostrated themselves in awe. Seeing the Grand Secretary's imposing presence, and recalling his rigorous training and care for his family these past few days, they all felt a willingness to die for him.
Li Xiaomin slowly ascended the jade steps before the palace, his face calm, his solemn and magnificent court robes already stained with blood. The court officials, seeing this, were all terrified, bowing their heads on either side, not daring to look up at this tiger-slaying hero.
Strolling across the Golden Palace, Li Xiaomin reached the jade steps, prostrated himself, and calmly presented his memorial: "Your Majesty, I was momentarily negligent, bringing my sword into the palace, disturbing Your Majesty's presence. I beg Your Majesty to punish me!"
Behind the beaded curtain, the beautiful woman wearing a phoenix crown, captivated by his heroic spirit, sighed softly upon hearing his words.
Empress Zhou had shared his bed for so many days, and had helped him undress countless times; how could she not know he concealed a sword at his waist? She sighed inwardly, "Don't even mention bringing a sword to court; haven't you done just as much as bringing a sword to bed?"
Thinking this, Empress Zhou blushed slightly and hurriedly comforted him gently, "Your Excellency need not be so kind. You slew the demon with your sword; your merit is immense. From now on, you may bring your sword to court. If there are any more demons, you may draw your sword and slay them without reporting it! Today, you killed the tiger with your sword, protecting the Golden Palace from its attack; you deserve a generous reward. Your fiefdom will be increased by another thousand households!"
Li Xiaomin respectfully prostrated himself in gratitude, secretly thanking Empress Zhou for giving him such face. He thought tonight, he must make her happy and have a good time. Anyway, he didn't have to attend court tomorrow; he could just have a wild and unrestrained night with her.
After bowing in thanks, he prostrated himself again and said, "Your Majesty, there are many tigers outside, all of which I killed in one fell swoop. They have no infectious diseases and are safe to eat. Your Majesty, should we send them to the Imperial Kitchen and cook them into dishes for you to try?"
Empress Zhou was startled and hurriedly waved her hand, saying, "I don't eat this kind of thing! You take it and eat it yourself, to nourish yourself!"
Li Xiaomin chuckled inwardly, "So I can nourish myself to be strong and vigorous, ready for a great battle with you, leaving you weak and feeble? Humph, your husband is so powerful, why would he need any tonics!"
He respectfully kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, these tiger carcasses can be cut into small pieces and distributed to all the officials, soldiers, and civilians in the city, so that the people of Jinling may fully enjoy Your Majesty's great favor!"
Empress Zhou nodded and smiled, saying gently, "Very well, so be it!"
Li Xiaomin kowtowed in gratitude, stood up, turned around and ordered a large number of butchers to go and butcher the tigers!
Upon receiving the imperial decree, a large number of butchers quickly responded, transporting the tiger carcass back to the slaughterhouse. There, they butchered it, cutting it into pieces of varying sizes. Larger pieces were sent to officials, while smaller pieces were distributed to the city's soldiers and civilians as a way to calm their nerves.
The tiger bones and blood were also used, ordered by Li Xiaomin to be sent to the imperial pharmacy for medicinal purposes.
The city's soldiers and civilians, enjoying this rare delicacy, unanimously praised the Empress Zhou and the Grand Secretary for their benevolence. A festive atmosphere permeated the city.
However, amidst this celebration, Li Xiaomin, the Grand Secretary who held a high position and controlled the court, harbored a secret worry. He vaguely sensed a powerful enemy lurking in the shadows.
Standing on high ground, gazing at the bustling city of Jinling, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Although he didn't know who the enemy was, their formidable strength had already begun to manifest. If they were to launch a full-scale attack, it would be a devastating blow, impossible to withstand.
But life had to go on. He couldn't let this little worry keep him preoccupied and disrupt his daily life. Li Xiaomin secretly decided that for now, the only option was to appear relaxed on the outside but remain vigilant on the inside, ordering his subordinates to be on high alert and observe the situation. "
These past few days, you've had human women perform oral sex on you a little more often, haven't you?" Standing in the tall, wide, dark cave, the tall, slender, and stunningly beautiful woman held Li Xiaomin in her palm, looking at him with her large, watery eyes, and asked softly. Li Xiaomin was startled and asked in surprise, "How did you know?" A hint of a smile appeared in the beautiful woman's charming eyes, like ripples on a lake, making Li Xiaomin worry that the autumn water might suddenly overflow and drown him in her hands. With a gentle voice, the stunningly beautiful woman said softly, "I am the Spirit of Love and Desire, so naturally I can sense it." Li Xiaomin stood on her palm, looking into her bright eyes, and slowly said, "I've always wanted to ask, who exactly are you?" A slight smile appeared on the corner of the beautiful woman's long, elegant lips, and she said calmly, "I am the Spirit of Love and Desire. You can call me the Celestial Maiden of Love and Desire!" Li Xiaomin looked at her in surprise and asked, "What is your background? How did you end up imprisoned here?" The Celestial Maiden of Love and Desire smiled faintly, "That's a long story. As long as you can rescue me, I..." "I'll tell you everything." Li Xiaomin said impatiently, "Why are you keeping me in suspense? Just tell me directly!" The Goddess of Love and Desire smiled slightly and said gently in a clear voice, "As long as you can save me, I will do whatever you want with you. You can do whatever you want!" When she looked at him with her charming eyes, Li Xiaomin immediately lost control. The lust in his chest burned fiercely. He didn't care about anything else. He opened his mouth and chanted the incantation, used the levitation technique, floated into the air, and slowly flew to the Goddess of Love and Desire. He embraced her tender, huge red lips and kissed them hard! Part 2, Chapter 22: Goddess of Love and Desire (Part 2) Her beautifully shaped lips were longer than Li Xiaomin's entire height, but they were incredibly soft. Li Xiaomin gently licked her red lips, his soul drifting away. He could no longer chant the incantation of the levitation technique and fell headfirst, crashing onto the dark rocky ground. His body plummeted rapidly through the air, about to shatter into pieces, when suddenly a jade-like hand scooped him up with a swift, powerful motion. The Goddess of Love and Desire cradled him before her, smiling gently, "Why are you so eager for sex, risking your life?" Her breath was fragrant and intoxicating. This warm breath, like a spring breeze, soothed every pore of Li Xiaomin's body. He disregarded everything else, standing on the Goddess of Love and Desire's jade-like hand, embracing her red lips and kissing them passionately, first her lower lip, then her upper lip, even standing on tiptoe, determined to kiss her. As if shouting "Open Sesame," her lips parted slightly, opening like two large doors. A pink, fragrant tongue emerged from within, gently licking Li Xiaomin's face. Li Xiaomin was almost suffocated by the licking. He grabbed her thick, soft, slippery tongue with both hands, biting down hard and kissing and licking it greedily, engaging in a strange French kiss with this stunning beauty. The goddess of love frowned slightly, seemingly in some pain from Li Xiaomin's bite. However, such a small person, even with his force, wouldn't cause her much pain; at most, it would feel like an ant had pinched her tongue, causing a small blister. Her sweet saliva flowed from her tongue into Li Xiaomin's mouth. Although it wasn't much, it almost choked him. He took a few steps back, coughing loudly, but his mind cleared considerably. He muttered to himself, "Where were you last night? With you around, I didn't even need tea; your saliva alone could drown me!" After catching his breath, he looked up at the Goddess of Desire with some wariness, frowning. "You seem a bit strange. How come I lose my mind and only want to have sex with you when you just breathe on me?" The Goddess of Desire showed a slight apology on her face and said softly, "I'm truly sorry. I am the spirit of desire, born from the desires of heaven and earth in ancient times. Therefore, my slightest movement can arouse your lust and make you lose your mind. Don't worry, I will be careful to avoid making such a mistake again." "Wrong." Li Xiaomin touched his lips and chuckled, "Actually, it's nothing. Your lips and tongue taste quite good when you kiss them, it seems there's even spiritual energy mixed in. It's a pity I can't cultivate Yin and Yang with you, otherwise, maybe my immortal power could have reached another level!" The Love Desire Celestial's beautiful cheeks flushed slightly, and she smiled gently, "Really? This is my first time, you could call it my first kiss!" Li Xiaomin's spirits lifted, but he laughed, "Today's is your first kiss, but what about yesterday when you kissed my little brother? In my opinion, yesterday was your first kiss, wasn't it?" The Love Desire Celestial's jade cheeks flushed red, and she raised her other hand as if to strike, but accidentally knocked the palace beauty lying on her other hand off, startled, she hurriedly caught her and placed the two of them side by side. Li Xiaomin looked back at Consort Chen on his other jade palm, and then remembered his purpose for coming today.

After several days of work, the ghost guards finally finished digging the tunnel. He then walked from the distant tunnel, carrying a torch, bringing Chen Fei along to fulfill his promise to the Goddess of Love and Desire.
Chen Fei, unaware of the situation, thought Xiao Minzi had a change of heart and wanted to comfort her lonely heart and body, so she happily followed him. Although she wondered why Xiao Minzi had brought her to such a secluded place, she didn't ask further. She was terrified by the darkness, her delicate body trembling, clinging tightly to Li Xiaomin's arm, afraid to let go.
Emerging from the tunnel, standing in the tall, wide, dark hall, a stunningly beautiful woman suddenly appeared, her figure so tall and graceful it was breathtaking. Chen Fei, already fearing a ghost might suddenly appear and devour her, fainted on the spot upon seeing this giantess.
Now, after the ordeal, she awoke, softly propping herself up, and saw that stunningly beautiful, enormous face still above her, smiling and nodding. Faced with such kindness, Consort Chen showed no gratitude, instead letting out a scream and nearly fainting again.
Li Xiaomin, already prepared, darted to her other jade-like hand, embracing Consort Chen tightly, and said gently, "It's alright, it's alright, she's not a bad person, she would never harm you!"
Consort Chen, her shock subsiding, hugged Li Xiaomin tightly and burst into tears.
The Goddess of Love and Desire, her face slightly flushed, saw that two hours had passed since the ancient restriction had slightly loosened, but dared not delay any longer. She opened her crimson lips and gently blew a breath, like a fragrant breeze enveloping the two.
With this breath, the two stopped crying and screaming, immediately stripping naked and engaging in a passionate lovemaking on her jade-like hand. The fiery and stimulating scene filled the Goddess of Love and Desire with both excitement and joy. A slight blush graced her jade-like face as she quietly watched the two handsome little figures making love in her palm. Driven by her spiritual power, their love and desire transformed into a peach-colored mist, which she slowly inhaled into her delicate nostrils, converting it into the magical power she needed to replenish the losses she had suffered during her years of imprisonment.
Consort Chen lay on her jade palm, screaming loudly, driven to the brink of death by the vigorous Li Xiaomin, fainting multiple times, until Li Xiaomin collapsed on top of her, panting heavily, before she finally passed out, her snow-white body covered with marks of their lovemaking. She lay limp on the jade palm of the Goddess of Love and Desire, as if utterly exhausted, her mind blank and unable to move.
Li Xiaomin, panting heavily as he lay on her naked body, rolled over, and lay naked in the Jade Palm of the Goddess of Love and Desire. His entire body was exposed to her beautiful, autumn-water-like eyes, yet he felt no shame, only laughing loudly, "Sister Love and Desire, how was today? Did I replenish your magic power enough?"

The

Goddess of Love and Desire laughed, carrying him and Consort Chen in her arms, and turned to walk deeper into the black cave. The path wound downwards, and after walking for a long time, Li Xiaomin was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected the great cave beneath the palace to be so deep and so long.
Finally, the Goddess of Love and Desire stopped. Li Xiaomin stood on her hand and looked ahead, astonished to see a seven-colored curtain, like a waterfall, shimmering and hanging on the cave wall in front of him.
The Goddess of Love and Desire pointed to the glowing waterfall and smiled, "Your sister came out from behind, and it's still quite a distance to go! But thanks to you, I have a chance to cross this curtain and take you down there!"
Li Xiaomin was taken aback and asked, "What's the use of taking me down there?"
The Goddess of Love and Desire smiled and said, "Of course! Only by taking you down can you meet my other sister, so that she can also obtain your true yang, replenish her spiritual power, and help us work together to break free from the restrictions! Good brother, do you know that your constitution is different from everyone else's? Your true yang is our only hope for escape!"
Hearing himself say such a great thing, Li Xiaomin couldn't help but feel secretly proud, and a sense of pride welled up in his chest. He didn't care about their desire to use his true yang energy, and generously said, "Sisters, if you want it, take it! Just name your share of my true yang energy!"
The Goddess of Love and Desire smiled as she listened to his boastful words, which had a double meaning. She looked up at the seven-colored curtain and suddenly cried out, "Two hours are almost up! My Dharma body is about to dissipate! Good brother, I must send you back!"
Her delicate body quickly floated up, retracing her steps, and soon she ran back to the dark hall through the tunnel. She raised her hands, lifted them up, and flew out of the cave.
Li Xiaomin, holding Chen Fei's naked body, watched the Goddess of Love and Desire's Dharma body gradually dissipate inside the cave. He felt a deep reluctance, gazing at her for a long time before sighing. Holding Chen Fei and her clothes in his hands, he walked out of the garden.
He had already ordered this large garden to be closed, believing that evil spirits were causing trouble inside. Upon hearing this, the palace maids and eunuchs turned pale with fright, none daring to provoke the evil spirit imprisoned in the garden. The guards, his loyal subordinates in the Demon-Suppressing Army, though afraid, dutifully stood guard at the garden gate, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.
At the garden gate, Li Xiaomin set Consort Chen down, first reciting a calming incantation to revive her, then comforting her gently, helping her dress. Once both were properly dressed, they slowly walked out of the garden.
The guards at the gate, seeing the Grand Secretary emerge, were slightly startled but dared not stop them. After kneeling and bowing, they watched the Grand Secretary and Consort Chen's graceful figures disappear into the distance, wondering what they were doing there, and were momentarily stunned.
Inside a vast underground cave, a gigantic rat stood listening to the chatter of several other rats outside recounting the battle between humans and tigers. After a moment's contemplation, it suddenly sneered, "Foolish tiger! Sure enough, it acted rashly and was killed! Hmph, disobeying the king's orders and acting on its own, it deserves to die!"
Its gaze fell upon the rats inside the cave, and it said in a deep voice, "Have you found anything while digging underground these past few days?"
Seeing its chilling gaze, the rats trembled and shook their heads. "Nothing found yet! The deeper we go, the colder it gets, it's bone-chilling, it's freezing the rats to death! We can only burrow this deep; any deeper and we get too scared to stay inside and want to escape!"
The Rat General pondered for a while, looking at the shivering rats before him, knowing they were telling the truth. Suddenly, he gave a cold smile, a resolute expression on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Fine, since you can't find it, I'll find it myself!"
He probed downwards, his body quickly burrowing into the ground, soil flying everywhere as he went. Soon, a thick tunnel appeared beneath the cave floor, and the Rat Demon's figure had vanished into the tunnel, disappearing without a trace.
Meanwhile, in Jinling, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, another imperial examination was held. Although this was a special examination ordered by Empress Zhou, it still attracted a large number of candidates who gathered in Jinling, studying diligently every day, hoping to rise through the ranks and become high-ranking officials who would bring glory to their ancestors.
Li Bai, with his slightly dark complexion and dressed in Confucian robes, sat by the window in a tavern, gazing at the jubilant candidates filling the street outside. He muttered to himself, "The Chinese just love being officials; they're obsessed with it. 'Of all professions, only studying is noble,' isn't it actually 'Only being an official is noble'? Only by passing the imperial examinations can one become an official. In ancient times, these two things were essentially the same."
He was currently a candidate himself, but Princess Zhenping had asked Princess Changping to ask the Grand Secretary Xiaominzi to forge an identity for him—a candidate from a certain prefecture and township in the Tang Dynasty. Since no one would verify the truth, if anyone dared to discover he was impersonating someone else and report it to the authorities, that person would likely be arrested and imprisoned first.
Although it violated the examination rules, since he held power, he could do whatever he wanted. No wonder everyone wanted to be an official.
Li Xiaomin's thoughts suddenly drifted back to his days publishing novels online. He seemed to recall being sued by other authors for some reason. The reason, roughly, was that he had occupied a slightly higher position on certain rankings, blocking others' path, which led to fierce complaints. Even if it was an egg, they would find something to criticize first. This made him sigh inwardly, "Alas, it's a pity I wasn't the Grand Secretary back then, otherwise, even a government minister would have been fine. Whoever dared to sue me for violating regulations, I'd lock them up in a dark room first!"
Thinking of the advantages of being an official—the ability to do whatever one wants, a truth that holds true throughout history—Li Xiaomin nodded, tossed a piece of silver on the table, clapped his hands, and strode away.
Li Xiaomin came down from the restaurant and saw a scholar approaching, accompanied by a shifty-eyed fellow who was whispering in his ear. The scholar, looking skeptical, asked in a low voice, "Really? You're not lying to me, are you?"
Curious, Li Xiaomin pricked up his ears and listened intently. The sleazy man whispered in his ear, "Don't worry, sir. These exam questions were bought from the family of the Grand Secretary. They're absolutely correct! If there's a problem, I'll compensate you double the money!"
Li Xiaomin immediately recognized this as one of those people who sold exam questions and scoffed. In later generations, those who helped cheat on university entrance exams for a fee had some real skills; at least they used high-tech methods to have the questions prepared on the spot and then send the answers electronically into the exam halls. This swindler, however, only knew such primitive methods, using fake exam questions to deceive people—truly despicable!
As for the claim that the exam papers were bought from the Grand Secretary's household, he immediately knew it was fake. He himself had never taken exam questions home; how could they have bought them from his own home? Especially since his servants were always followed by ghosts, and even when he went to the toilet, two or three ghosts would be watching him intently, trying to hide exam questions. Even if they learned the skills of the Qing Dynasty's armory guards and stuffed the exam questions into their anuses like silver ingots, it wouldn't work!
The scholar was still half-believing, half-doubting, muttering to himself. Li Xiaomin was too lazy to remind him; if he wanted to cheat, he deserved to be fooled.
Walking down the street in his Confucian robes, Li Xiaomin felt quite pleased. This era was much better than the world of the past. Without television, not so many people knew him; he didn't need to wear sunglasses like a celebrity when he went out; he could wander around as he pleased, and there were no paparazzi following him everywhere. His private life was greatly protected. Besides, he could use his immortal power to disguise himself. If future celebrities had such abilities, they would be overjoyed!
He strolled through the streets and alleys, finally arriving at Bai Suzhen's door. After a moment's thought, his immortal power surged, erasing the dark complexion on his face and reducing his height. He would still go as Li Xiaomin, only to be met with a cold shoulder.
Patiently knocking on the door, Li Xiaomin's hands were raised to protect his head, preparing to withstand the blows of the mourning stick.
After knocking for a long time, the door finally opened. A beautiful woman, as pure as ice and snow, stood inside, her eyes filled with anger. She swung the mourning stick, striking Li Xiaomin hard on the head.
Behind her back, she secretly held a pair of scissors, ready to stab him, even if it blinded him—it would be his just punishment! At worst, he could escape afterward. With the martial arts he had learned, escaping Jinling shouldn't be too difficult. Li Xiaomin's expression remained unchanged. He stretched his finger upwards, and
his fingertip touched the thick mourning stick. With a crisp crack, the sturdy wooden stick shattered like straw, scattering across the ground.
