The White Pagoda is a towering tower with a completely snow-white surface. It has a total of 9981 floors from top to bottom. According to the legend passed down by word of mouth among the people of Daxuan, this White Pagoda is made of the bones of evil cultivators and disobedient people.

Regardless of whether these rumors are true or false, the boss of the Daxuan Bu Tiansi who has lived in the White Pagoda for a long time, the "Mysterious Bu Tian Tai Shi" Qixing Zhenren, does not have an official official title of Bu Tiansi like "Zhu Zhuan" and "Fortune Teller". Because he is in charge of the affairs of the Daxuan gods and ghosts, people who know the existence of Bu Tiansi will call him "National Master".

Officials within the Bu Tian Si would call the Seven Star Immortals "Immortals".

Because compared to the mundane honor of "national teacher", Qixing Zhenren prefers the term "Zhenren" which represents the pursuit of immortality.

The White Tower is generally divided into three parts. The first to eighteenth floors built underground are dungeons used to imprison monks with serious sentences. Every inch of the building is covered with soul-forbidden formations and other formations to prevent prisoners from escaping. At the same time, a large number of Bu Tiansi monks who specialize in attack patrol day and night to ensure that nothing goes wrong. Overall, the dungeon of the White Tower can be described as an iron barrel, making it impossible for the monks imprisoned inside to escape.

The 19th to 80th floors in the middle are where the monks of the Bu Tian Si live and work. The number of floors they live in is allocated according to the monk's official position and level. The higher the level of the Bu Tian Si monk, the higher the floor, because they firmly believe that the closer they are to the Seven Stars Real Person, when the Seven Stars Real Person ascends to heaven, they will be able to follow the Seven Stars Real Person and "ascend to heaven" and transcend the secular world. Therefore, the internal competition of the Bu Tian Si is also very fierce.

The highest eighty-first floor is naturally where the boss of the Bu Tiansi, the Seven Stars Immortal, resides. Although everyone knows that the Seven Stars Immortal has been staying on the eighty-first floor, not many people are lucky enough to see the true appearance of the Seven Stars Immortal, because except for the few times in history when the Seven Stars Immortal has left the tower, the rest of the time, only the current Emperor Daxuan can step onto the ladder to heaven after burning incense and bathing, and come to the eighty-first floor where the Seven Stars Immortal is located to kowtow to this hard-working and meritorious "national teacher".

The way that the Seven Stars Immortal communicates with other fortune tellers is very mysterious. The fortune teller only needs to briefly report the matter to the Seven Stars Immortal through the brass pipes installed on every floor of the White Tower. As for the Seven Stars Immortal's reply, it is also transmitted through such pipes. No one knows how he manages to handle so much information every day.

By the way, the construction of the White Pagoda was participated in by the rational scholars of Shanhai Academy, so the architectural style is somewhat similar to the "brass punk" in Jiangning.

At this moment, Shao Shuang'er's hands were locked with rune shackles, and several soul-sealing needles were inserted into the acupuncture points on her back to restrict the circulation of her meridians as much as possible.

Shao Shuang'er had disheveled hair and was wearing a plain white prison uniform, but her face showed no fear at all. She sneered at the Imperial Capital Army, the Bu Tiansi, and the Geological Survey officials who were standing by in battle formation, and said, "If you had used the energy you put into dealing with the Fu Tian Army instead of guarding against me, Da Xuan wouldn't have been defeated. Oh, no, the enemy is at the gates now?"

"You are such a bunch of losers, just like someone else, you are all losers who only know how to bully others at home."

All the soldiers and monks turned a deaf ear to Shao Shuang'er's words.

They were now standing in the part of the white tower that was built on the ground, which was also Bu Tiansi's office. Shao Shuang'er looked around fearlessly, commenting from time to time: "It's really ugly."

"Is this the prisoner who will be imprisoned today?" Just as Shao Shuang'er was still making her offensive remarks, a group of monks wearing black uniforms with red sun, moon and star patterns painted on them flew out from a huge window about eight stories high. They held chains and a strange knife in their hands and landed steadily in front of Shao Shuang'er.

There is a huge flat hook in front of the knife, with blades both inside and outside the hook, a bit like a sickle, but more curved than a sickle, and about a semicircle. If you compare the width of the hook and the human head, you can easily figure out the function of this knife - it can cut a person's neck from behind as easily as cutting wheat, and then pull hard, and a fresh and hot human head can be made quickly and easily.

The monk who was in charge of escorting Shao Shuang'er hurriedly trotted a few steps and whispered something to the leader of the black-clothed men. The expression on the leader's face did not change, and he was still silent, but he stretched out his hook knife, hooked Shao Shuang'er's shackles, and said expressionlessly: "Let's go."

Shao Shuang'er looked the woman up and down. She was about forty years old, with a scar running through both sides of her face. The scar almost cut her eye. The purple-red scar made her look extremely hideous and terrifying, which really matched her identity as "Bu Tiansi Prison Head".

Shao Shuang'er smiled and said, "This sister has all these skills, why does she stay here every day, working for these people who are taking advantage of her? The country is in crisis right now, and the frontline needs more help."

The woman ignored Shao Shuang'er, and raised her ferocious eyes slightly, staring at Shao Shuang'er like a hawk, and said coldly: "I am loyal to the king, so stop talking nonsense and take him away!"

Shao Shuang'er groaned and was pushed hard from behind by the woman. However, Shao Shuang'er, who was restrained by the spirit, just swayed. Her lower body was solid and she showed no signs of falling, which made the woman let out a soft "Hmm?"

But this little episode did not attract many people's attention. They were just following orders. As for whether the relationship between His Majesty and His Majesty was just a romantic flirtation or a deep hatred that could not be resolved until one died, that had nothing to do with them.

But this Qiu Jiu, hehe...it would be best if she could severely offend His Majesty so that he can dismiss her from her post and take her life.

No colleague reminded Qiu Jiu of the identity of this special prisoner because they all wanted Qiu Jiu to die.

Aren't you the most impartial and just? Aren't you the most just and unwavering? Then let's see if His Majesty and His Majesty's wife will fall for your tricks!

Therefore, when they handed over Shao Shuang'er's documents, they wrote that Shao Shuang'er's crime was "disrupting the government", a crime probably used to detain political prisoners, and was not on the same level as those extremely vicious evil cultivators. Even if Qiu Jiu was outrageous, he would not use severe torture on a political prisoner.

But the Empress, a delicate woman, would cry even in the lightest prison, right? By then, when His Majesty regrets and takes back his order, and the Empress whispers in his ear, won't Qiu Jiu be doomed?

After all, almost no one in the entire imperial capital knew Shao Shuang'er's true identity. They all thought that Shao Shuang'er was just a casual cultivator who had learned some rustic magic.

On the surface, Shao Shuang'er pretended to be full of resentment and seemed very unconvinced, but in fact, she kept estimating the strength of the shackles and the forbidden spirit in her mind, and trying to determine how to get out quickly.

"This woman is the strongest present, but her strength is not top-notch." After all, Shao Shuang'er is someone who has seen the world. In her opinion, the level of cultivators in the entire imperial capital can only be considered average. What really allows Daxuan to gain a foothold in this world is actually the number of people.

"Maybe, I can try to defeat them one by one." Shao Shuang'er was thinking, and suddenly felt a chill on her back. She turned her head abruptly, but saw nothing.

"This is weird. Could it be that my spirit has been confined and my perception has decreased? I clearly felt the cultivator's prying eyes just now."

Just when Shao Shuang'er was confused, a pair of "eyes" were staring at her, but she did not see the other party's shadow!
