Traveling through another world to stir the emperor's heart

Chapter 201 Shadow Recognizes its Master

Feng Qingyue smiled slightly, her eyes sweeping across An Mu and the woman like a knife, her tone carrying a hint of coldness: "Evidence?"

Before she finished speaking, the woman suddenly sneered, her eyes gleaming with ruthlessness. "Shadow has recognized me as her master. The military talisman is in my hands. I am the Saint! Shadow, listen to my orders. Kill her!"

The masked woman's voice was sharp and rapid, her finger pointed directly at Feng Qingyue, her eyes full of madness.

There was dead silence, and everyone was shocked by this sudden change.

The Shadow Commander frowned, his eyes moving back and forth between the woman and the King Lan Xuanming, clearly hesitating.

Although he recognized the woman in front of him as his master, the situation was too strange.

Seeing Shadow didn't move, the masked woman's voice became even sharper: "Shadow! What are you waiting for? Kill her!"

Everyone in the Shadows looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, Feng Qingyue suddenly moved.

Her figure flashed like a ghost and instantly approached the masked woman.

Before the woman could react, Feng Qingyue had already snatched the military token from her hand.

"You--" The woman was horrified and hurriedly stepped back, but Feng Qingyue grabbed her wrist.

"The military token is in my hand, and you still want to command Shadow?" Feng Qingyue sneered, her eyes as cold as ice.

Seeing this, An Mu's face suddenly changed. He hurried forward to take back the military token, but was blocked by a tall figure.

"Deputy Leader, please stay." Gao Yunfeng stood in front of An Mu, his tone calm but unquestionable.

An Mu's pupils shrank, and his voice was filled with anger: "Elder Gao, what do you mean?"

Gao Yunfeng said calmly, "Deputy Sect Leader, it's better for you not to act rashly."

An Mu's face turned ashen, and his eyes glanced back and forth between Feng Qingyue and Gao Yunfeng. He already knew in his heart that the situation was hopeless.

Feng Qingyue held the military token in her hand, her eyes swept over the Shadows, her voice cold and firm: "Shadows, listen to my orders. I am An Qingyue, the daughter of the Black Blood Cult's Young Madam Lan Yingxue. From now on, I will lead you on behalf of my mother."

Lan Xuanming stood up suddenly, his eyes full of disbelief: "You...what did you say?"

His voice trembled slightly, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

Feng Qingyue's eyes were calm, and her tone was somewhat distant: "Your Majesty, this is a long story, and now is not the time to discuss it in detail."

Lan Xuanming had a complicated expression, hesitating to speak. Finally, he slowly sat down and whispered, "I lost my composure."

Chen Jinyu was also shocked. He glanced back and forth between Feng Qingyue and Lan Xuanming, muttering softly, "How...how is this possible? Ah Yue is actually the eldest princess's daughter?"

Seeing this, the Shadow Commander's eyes flashed with a trace of awe. He then knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice, "This subordinate greets the young master!"

Following his action, the other Shadow members also knelt down and said in unison: "Greetings, Young Master!"

Seeing this, the woman's face turned pale instantly and her body trembled slightly, as if she had lost all her strength.

She murmured, "Impossible... This is impossible..."

An Mu's expression also turned extremely ugly. He stared at Feng Qingyue intently, with a hint of unwillingness in his voice: "You...you really are..."

Feng Qingyue smiled coldly, her eyes like knives: "An Mu, today is the time for reckoning."

An Mu's face suddenly changed, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

He sneered, his tone tinged with sarcasm. "So what if you're the real Saint? The Black Blood Cult is now my power. What do you think a mere Shadow can do to me?"

Before he could finish his words, the silent Liu Xuer suddenly spoke, her voice trembling slightly: "You are the Saint of the Black Blood Cult, then who is she?"

She pointed at the masked woman, her eyes fixed on An Mu, "An Mu, are you lying to me?"

An Mu didn't even look at Liu Xuer, his tone was cold: "Lie to you? It's just a chess piece, why bother lying?"

Liu Xuer's face turned pale instantly, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

She suddenly turned her head to look at Feng Qingyue, her voice filled with self-mockery: "Then isn't the military token that I worked so hard to obtain extremely ridiculous?"

Feng Qingyue's eyes were calm, and her tone was filled with pity: "Liu Xu'er, you were used by him."

"Shadow, listen to my orders. Capture An Mu and the others."

Upon hearing this, the Shadow Leader waved his hand without hesitation, and the Shadow members acted quickly, surrounding An Mu and the others.

An Mu's expression suddenly changed, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes: "How dare you!"

He suddenly raised his hand, and the hidden weapons in his sleeves shot out like raindrops, trying to force back the shadow group.

However, the Shadow members were well-trained and dodged quickly, blocking with shields while advancing step by step.

Seeing this, the masked woman turned pale and her body trembled slightly.

She tried to retreat, but was surrounded by the Shadow members and had nowhere to escape.

Liu Xuer stood there, her eyes full of despair.

She looked at Feng Qingyue, her voice pleading: "Ayue, I... I was deceived by him, please spare my life!"

Feng Qingyue's eyes were calm, and her tone was a little cold: "Liu Xu'er, your crime will be dealt with according to the law of the country."

When Liu Xuer heard this, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, and she finally lowered her head and stopped resisting.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, An Mu's eyes flashed with madness.

He suddenly took out a black pill from his arms and threw it hard to the ground.

The pill exploded, instantly releasing thick smoke that obscured everyone's vision.

An Mu's voice could be heard faintly from the smoke: "My Saint, today's matter is not over yet! We will meet again!"

When the smoke cleared, An Mu was nowhere to be seen, leaving only the masked woman and Liu Xuer firmly controlled by the Shadow members.

Lan Xuanming glanced coldly at the masked woman and Liu Xuer, his tone carrying a hint of coercion: "Take them to the prison and keep them under strict guard!"

Lan Xuanming's expression darkened slightly, and he hesitated to speak. Finally, he whispered, "Sister... if she knew you were still alive, she would definitely be happy."

Feng Qingyue's eyes moved slightly, but she didn't respond. She simply said, "Your Majesty, the most urgent task right now is to track down An Mu's whereabouts and completely eradicate his power. As for other matters, we can discuss them after everything has settled."

Lan Xuanming nodded upon hearing this, his tone somewhat solemn, "You are right. I will fully support you. Shadow is the power left by my elder sister, and it is only natural that I return it to you now."

Feng Qingyue nodded slightly, with a look of gratitude in her eyes: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

She turned to look at the Shadow Commander, her tone carrying a hint of intimidation: "Shadows, listen to my orders. From today on, you must do your utmost to track down An Mu's whereabouts and capture him!"

The Shadow Commander knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice, "I obey your command!"
