Chapter 4965: 5.0717 Pretty Good Tolerance

With a complex expression, the woman's gaze coldly swept towards Qiao Mu.

"You are Shentu Jing, the Third Imperial Advisor of the Duoluo Kingdom, right?" Duan Yue immediately identified the person, a chilling light in his eyes. "Long time no see, Imperial Advisor. How have you been?"

Qiao Mu detected intense hostility in Duan Yue's tone. The little stoic immediately turned her head, scrutinizing Imperial Advisor Shentu. Duoluo Kingdom? She seemed to have never heard of it. And this woman, who looked about twenty-six or seven, with a fair and blooming face and deeply furrowed brows, appeared to be an absolute beauty. Unexpectedly, she was an Imperial Advisor of some kingdom?

Shentu Jing glared resentfully at the man and woman before her, her gaze finally settling on Qiao Mu's face. She coldly taunted, "Even if you kill me, you can't stop the implementation of the Lily plan."

Qiao Mu looked utterly bewildered. What the heck?

"What Lily plan?" Qiao Mu turned to look at the furious Duan Yue, her face full of confusion. Judging by Duan Yue's reaction, he seemed to know about the transformation potion and the Lily plan?

"Seeking death," Duan Yue's cold voice reached Shentu Jing's ears, making her shiver abruptly. But the woman was stubborn, stiffening her neck and displaying a fearless expression. "Kill me or dismember me as you please. But I just want to tell you two, the Lily plan will not be interrupted by my death."

Duan Yue raised a hand, and silver-white flames flickered between his fingers. Just as they were about to land on Shentu Jing, Qiao Mu quickly pulled him back and asked, "What's going on?"

Qiao Qiao actually didn't understand. What Lily plan? Their strange conversation made her feel as if something was being kept from her.

"Nothing," Duan Yue took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the surging waves of anger in his eyes.

"There's definitely something," Qiao Mu persistently tugged at his sleeve. "Tell me quickly."

Don't you dare hide anything from Qiao Qiao!

Duan Yue glanced at her, seeing the little stoic's large, round eyes staring intently at him, and couldn't help but find it a little amusing. "Alright, I'll tell you, but please don't get angry, okay?"

Qiao Mu nodded. "Tell me, I won't get angry. You know, I have pretty good psychological tolerance."

A moment later, after Duan Yue had recounted the entire story of the Lily incident as he knew it to Lord Qiao Qiao.

Qiao Qiao's little stoic face tightened, her eyes burning with rage. Without a word, she pulled out a black ruler and swung it straight down towards Shentu Jing's head.

"Bang! Bang bang!!!"

Shao Yi and the other dark guards all covered their faces, chuckling inwardly: Oh my goodness, this is the "Crown Princess with pretty good psychological tolerance."

The Little Crown Princess, without a word, used the ruler to hit Shentu Jing until her head was bruised and bleeding. A hint of fury colored her bright eyes. As she hit, she occasionally kicked Shentu Jing. These people actually dared to scheme against her behind her back and imitate her? They had the guts to create a large batch of Lord Qiao Qiaos.

Unlike the hundred or so mechanical puppets Old Man Tiantuzi created, which were cute, harmless, and could be commanded to do work. These "Lilies" were undeniably things forcibly twisted and created. According to Duan Yue, once a "Lily" completely died, the puppeteer behind her would continue to control her with secret puppetry techniques.

Qiao Mu grabbed Shentu Jing, who was sprawled on the ground, and pulled her up.
