Chapter 634: Chapter 634: I Never Call for Backup in Fights_1

"Yes,"

"There’s nothing incomprehensible about it, the Empress had some entanglements with Emperor Gaozong, and although a thousand years have passed, some things simply cannot be changed."

"But the question is, I just can’t figure out whether the Empress is doing this to help Li Muyun or to harm him."

Dong Qingxuan looked at her sister, a hint of sternness flashing in her eyes, "As a servant, presuming to guess the master’s intentions is a sign of disrespect. From now on, you only need to do as your master commands and must not make such foolish mistakes again."

"Oh."

That night, Xi Yu furrowed her brows as she handed the freshly received invitation over to Wu Qiyi.

The invitation contained only a few words, but after reading it, Wu Qiyi’s delicate eyebrows slightly knit together, her face displaying a hint of displeasure.

"Miss, why would the Empress specifically invite you and Miss Zhao’er to go abroad at this time?"

After her expression changed, Wu Qiyi eventually let out a light sigh, "It seems big trouble is about to knock on our door."

Upon hearing this, Xi Yu’s stunningly beautiful face revealed an intense sharpness, "The Empress goes too far! Even though her Imperial Alliance is powerful, our Luanfeng Pavilion is not to be trifled with!"

"No, this time her target isn’t Luanfeng Pavilion."

Xi Yu was extremely intelligent, and upon Wu Qiyi’s remark, she quickly grasped the key issue, her expression one of surprise, "Could it be that someone is planning to move against Master Li?"

"Mm."

Xi Yu fell silent then, standing quietly by Wu Qiyi’s side, her eyebrows deeply furrowed.

Wu Qiyi looked up slightly, her face still as calm as ever, "Have you thought of a way to deal with this?"

"First," Xi Yu pondered, "we need to know who the enemy is and their strength. After filtering through individuals and forces that have had grudges with Master Li, there are two suspects that stand out as the most likely."

"Let’s hear it."

"The first is the Cen Family of Yenjing. Miss, through Master Li’s assistance, you turned the Cen family’s Old Lady’s painstakingly groomed successor into an idiot. With such a deep hatred, she will definitely not let it go."

"Hmph, let it go?"

At that moment, Wu Qiyi released a terrifying oppressive aura. This pressure alone made Xi Yu, standing by her side, tremble all over, hardly able to remain standing, and finally, she sat down on the couch, her smooth forehead beading up with large drops of cold sweat.

"The Cen family owes me a debt from the last time, which nearly trapped me in the Heavenless Hell forever. They will pay back this grudge a thousandfold eventually!"

To most people, Wu Qiyi was viewed as a peaceful and non-confrontational goddess, perfect in appearance, temperament, and family background.

With her disposition, she could face anything with equanimity, even life-and-death crises, turning danger into safety with her unique powers.

However, with the Cen family, specifically Cen Xiaodan’s actions that time, which resulted in Wu Qiyi’s near death and soul detention, if not for you, she might have been imprisoned in the Heavenless Hell forever.

Although she was not a person to hold grudges, she had never forgotten that incident and had mainly left the matter to you; otherwise, she would have already taken thunderous measures to uproot the Cen family entirely!

As the oppressive aura receded like the tide, Xi Yu finally let out a long sigh of relief, "However, I believe the probability of the Cen family being involved is extremely low, and it is more likely another old and established family from Yenjing."

"The Liu Family, Liu Bai?"

"Yes."

"Mm, if it is Liu Bai, that could indeed be troublesome," Wu Qiyi mused, lowering her head.

"Miss, I don’t understand why the Empress would take you and Zhao’er together."

Without a second thought, Wu Qiyi said, "Inviting me, of course, means she doesn’t want me to use Luanfeng Pavilion’s influence to help Mu Yun; as for Zhao’er, well, it’s simple, not many can survive a slap from her. She squashes those so-called experts as if they were mosquitoes."

"If that is the case, then both Miss and Zhao’er definitely shouldn’t go."

Letting out a soft sigh, a look of struggle appeared on Wu Qiyi’s face, "It’s clearly stated in the invitation, if we don’t go, the Empress will personally cause trouble for Mu Yun. For his sake, we have no choice but to go."

"But..."

"Never mind, given Mu Yun’s personality, even if enemies come, he wouldn’t agree to me taking action, let alone Zhao’er." After thinking for a moment, Wu Qiyi picked up her mobile phone from the desk beside her and dialed your number.

At this time, you were sitting in the dormitory, shooting the breeze with Yang Kai and the others. Hearing the phone ringing, you couldn’t help but pick it up and take a glance.

Huh?

Looking at the time on the phone, you couldn’t help but say, "It’s almost ten o’clock, why would she call me at this time?"

Every girl who loves beauty has the habit of sleeping their beauty sleep, Wu Qiyi was no exception.

Zhao’er would automatically go to sleep at eight o’clock due to her physical condition, and Wu Qiyi would sit on the sofa in her bedroom, comfortably dressed in pajamas, reading for half an hour, and then go to bed.

This was an unshakable habit of hers.

Pressing the answer button, you spoke with a hint of confusion, "Calling at this time, it must be something important, right?"

"Mm."

"Related to you?" You were a bit nervous when you said this, after all, in your heart, you hoped she would be happy and well.

"No, it’s about you."

Upon hearing this, the unease in your heart grew.

Could it be that she was no longer going to keep silent and had decided to confess?

While you were lost in wild guesses, Wu Qiyi couldn’t help but laugh softly, "Are you thinking that I am going to say something that will put you in a difficult position?"

"Cough, cough cough..."

She saw right through you, what a shrewd woman!

As Wu Qiyi heard you use a cough to cover up the nervousness inside, her laughter intensified, "If I really said what you’re thinking, how would you respond to me?"

"Well... that... this..."

What else could you say at a time like this?

Of course, play dumb!

"Alright, I’ll stop teasing you." Hearing the slight rush in your heartbeats as you spoke, Wu Qiyi seemed to be in a very good mood, "I have something to tell you."

"Mm."

"Tomorrow morning, Zhao’er and I will be making a trip to New Zealand."

"New Zealand? What are you going there for, such a far place?"

Your eyebrows furrowed immediately; it wasn’t easy to reunite with Zhao’er, and you didn’t want to be separated from her again.

"Can’t help it, the Empress issued an edict and I must go."

As soon as it was about the Empress, your temper flared instantly, "Damn! What the hell does that woman want?"

"She probably knows that someone is going to make a move on you, so she deliberately sent me and Zhao’er away, cutting off your external aid."

"Gan! When have I ever needed external aid in a fight!"

Just mentioning the Empress got you infuriated.

"Once she’s made a decision, there’s no changing it, so tomorrow morning, Zhao’er and I will leave. However, it’s precisely because of this that you must be extra careful. The person likely to make a move on you this time should be Liu Bai."
