Volume 2, Chapter 133 – Thank You, Xian’er

Of course, there was another reason.

At the very beginning, Lu Zhuxin hadn’t guarded against her.

When using the Dream-Entering Technique on Song Shiyuan, she hadn’t concealed it either.

She had been completely open to a certain System.

“Your Majesty… who are you cursing at?” Hu Xian’er asked, covering her ears.

She remembered this name was the false name Your Majesty used to deceive Song Shiyuan.

So, was Her Majesty cursing herself?

Lu Zhuxin looked at Hu Xian’er with an expressionless face.

“Didn’t I tell you to block your hearing?”

“Your Majesty, Xian’er can’t hear what you’re saying,” Hu Xian’er said.

But she had heard everything!

“I was cursing an extremely curse-worthy fox,” Lu Zhuxin said flatly.

“…” Hu Xian’er looked at Lu Zhuxin with a complicated expression.

She pressed her lips together, her voice slightly hoarse. “Your Majesty, I know you’re unwilling. But this can’t be blamed on you. If you want to curse someone… curse Xian’er instead.”

“What are you imagining now?” Lu Zhuxin said irritably. “I told you to block your hearing, but you didn’t listen.”

“Your Majesty…” Hu Xian’er looked aggrieved. “This is Xian’er’s dreamscape. Every move you make in the dream, Xian’er can clearly sense. Even if you want Xian’er to block her hearing, Xian’er can’t do it.”

“Forget it…” Lu Zhuxin rubbed her forehead. “Let’s talk about the actual matter.”

“Alright, Your Majesty.” Hu Xian’er nodded. She obediently sat down in front of Lu Zhuxin.

Lu Zhuxin’s expression became serious.

After confirming that events within the dream wouldn’t be detected by that System, Lu Zhuxin’s plan had become more complete.

“You should have already guessed earlier that regarding Qu Qingtang, I have a plan.”

Lu Zhuxin pondered.

“She’s lying right beside me now. So the next steps of the plan can only be entrusted to you.”

“Only you can accomplish this, Xian’er.”

Hu Xian’er’s eyes reddened. “I know Your Majesty is feeding herself to the tiger, not willingly submitting.”

“To deal with Qu Qingtang, Xian’er also had a plan.”

“Oh? You also have a plan?” Lu Zhuxin chuckled lightly. “Why don’t we write our plans on our palms and see if we’re thinking the same thing?”

“Your Majesty, you’re joking again.” Hu Xian’er shook her head. “Xian’er only thought of this plan recently.”

“And Your Majesty… when you had Xian’er search for the ancient Bliss Sect ruins, you had already begun this plan, hadn’t you?”

Hu Xian’er looked at Lu Zhuxin with burning eyes.

Extraordinary intelligence, far-reaching plans—this was the Fox Clan’s Fox Monarch.

And the master Hu Xian’er was willing to sacrifice everything for.

“As expected, you can guess my plan,” Lu Zhuxin sighed.

Hu Xian’er was truly intelligent.

Sometimes, Lu Zhuxin felt this white fox was very much like her.

Even without explaining explicitly, with just a few simple hints, this white fox could understand what Lu Zhuxin wanted and what she intended to do.

“Yes.” Hu Xian’er nodded.

“Xian’er can guess some of Your Majesty’s thoughts, but not much.”

“Please tell Xian’er the detailed plan.”

Lu Zhuxin nodded and continued. “I’ll tell you the general plan. The rest can only be left to you to perfect.”

“Yes.” Hu Xian’er responded. “Xian’er will work hard.”

The two discussed for a while.

“…Your Majesty.” Hu Xian’er furrowed her brows, her expression solemn. “This plan is far too bold.”

Lu Zhuxin said, “A Sword Sect Venerable Saint cannot be judged by common sense. To deal with such an existence, we can only use extraordinary means.”

“Xian’er understands. The opponent’s combat power is impossible to match… A Venerable Saint cannot be restricted by ordinary methods.”

“There are still many difficulties…” Hu Xian’er frowned.

After discussing with Lu Zhuxin, Hu Xian’er found her own plan was still too superficial, with many areas difficult to resolve.

But Lu Zhuxin had provided even bolder solutions.

“A Venerable Saint’s perception far exceeds ordinary Eighth Realm powerhouses,” Lu Zhuxin said.

“If we summon powerhouses on a large scale, with a Venerable Saint’s perception, she will certainly sense it.”

“So this time, we cannot summon powerhouses from other races.”

Shock flashed through Hu Xian’er’s eyes as she smiled bitterly inwardly. “But the fox clan’s weak combat power is an undeniable fact. If the plan goes awry, how can we guarantee Your Majesty’s safety?”

“It’s fine,” Lu Zhuxin said. “To deal with such an existence, we must stake everything on one throw.”

“The fox clan is weak and won’t be taken seriously by a Venerable Saint. This is also the fox clan’s greatest advantage.”

“Large-scale fox clan movements won’t even draw her attention.” Lu Zhuxin stroked her chin.

“Moreover, inside the Fox Palace, I’ll also try my best to occupy her attention, giving you enough time and opportunity.”

“Your Majesty…” Hu Xian’er’s words caught in her throat.

However, she continued following Lu Zhuxin’s topic. “There’s also the matter of formations. The fox clan doesn’t have particularly powerful formation masters…”

“Have Huang Xifeng go,” Lu Zhuxin said.

“But… if Huang Xifeng leaves the Fox Palace, who will protect Your Majesty’s safety?” Hu Xian’er said urgently.

“It’s useless,” Lu Zhuxin said. “Whatever Qu Qingtang wants to do, no one can stop her.”

“Huang Xifeng staying in the Fox Palace has no meaning.”

Hu Xian’er bit her lower lip. “Tomorrow, I’ll find a pretext to have Huang Xifeng leave.”

“But this way, Your Majesty will truly have to face Qu Qingtang alone.”

“Don’t worry.” Lu Zhuxin’s eyes darkened slightly. “I have my limits.”

“Alright… Your Majesty, I’ll arrange it as soon as possible.” Hu Xian’er nodded solemnly.

“By the way…” Lu Zhuxin looked around and asked, “How many people’s consciousnesses can such a dreamscape hold?”

Hu Xian’er answered, “Generally speaking, dreamscapes are limitless. But if you want multiple people to enter the same person’s dream simultaneously, then the person serving as the dream’s foundation must have a sufficiently powerful divine soul.”

Lu Zhuxin pondered for a moment, then a smile curved at her lips. “I have another idea that can guarantee the safety of this operation.”

“What?” Hu Xian’er asked in confusion.

Lu Zhuxin shared her thought.

“Do you think it’s feasible?” Lu Zhuxin asked.

“Your Majesty…” A trace of astonishment flashed through Hu Xian’er’s eyes. “Perhaps… it’s believable.”

“But no one has ever tried it before…”

“If we can succeed, then even against a Venerable Saint… we might have a chance to…”

Hu Xian’er’s breathing gradually became rapid. She felt her body trembling lightly.

Both from fear and from excitement.

Not long ago, Hu Xian’er would never have imagined that they, these weak fox clan members, would actually have a day when they could scheme against a Sword Sect Venerable Saint.

Illusions, dreams, pheromones.

Lu Zhuxin’s plan utilized the fox demons’ innate talents to their utmost.

“In that case, I’ll leave the rest to you, Xian’er,” Lu Zhuxin said.

“Yes.” Hu Xian’er nodded.

Lu Zhuxin had entrusted all her trust to Hu Xian’er.

If anything went wrong anywhere, it would be total defeat.

Hu Xian’er felt heavy pressure.

Both fear of the powerful enemy and excitement at personally scheming against a supreme powerhouse.

“Your Majesty… Xian’er will definitely do her very best!” Hu Xian’er said solemnly to Lu Zhuxin.

“Xian’er, you’re truly wonderful,” Lu Zhuxin said softly.

She stood up, approached Hu Xian’er, and hugged her tightly.

“Eh? Your Majesty.” Hu Xian’er was somewhat at a loss.

The warmth from Lu Zhuxin’s body and that rich fragrance almost completely enveloped her.

Though it was a dream, the dreamscape constructed by a fox demon was almost identical to reality.

“Thank you, Xian’er.” Lu Zhuxin leaned close to Hu Xian’er’s ear and whispered.

“Without you, I truly wouldn’t know how to face all this alone…”

The white fox had truly helped Lu Zhuxin so much.

Hu Xian’er was surprised. She calmed down and hugged Lu Zhuxin back.

Though it was a dream, this was also her first time being this close to the monarch in her heart.

“Your Majesty… with Your Majesty’s trust, Xian’er will certainly not disappoint you.”

“Good.”

Lu Zhuxin hugged her tightly. After savoring the obedience of the fox beauty in her arms for a while, she reluctantly released her.

After stepping back half a step, Lu Zhuxin pressed her lips together, her eyes darkening.

“Xian’er, it’s time to wake from the dream.”

“Yes.” Hu Xian’er nodded and raised her hand to disperse the dreamscape.

The surrounding snowy mountain scenery began to rapidly dissolve.
