His Majesty is plotting a rebellion? Quickly, summon the Imperial Advisor!

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, host! You have obtained the title: Calamity of the Crows]

[The Calamity of the Crows: The host possesses the ability to control crows and the capacity to perceive all crows at once. Crows belonging to the host will receive enhancements in flight and claws. The host will also gain the power of crow affinity.]

[Additional Attributes: Charisma +5, Prestige +2]

A series of electronic sounds rang out.

Xu Bing's eyes lit up. He already possessed fifteen spirit crows, which was equivalent to having fifteen eyes and ears.

However, this ability to share vision is an innate ability of the crow and does not belong to Xu Bing.

In other words, if wild crows were tamed by Xu Bing, it would be difficult for them to share a field of vision.

However, after obtaining the 'Crows' curse, the situation changed, which meant that Xu Bing now had the means to raise crows.

If possible... his eyes would be everywhere in Da Xi City.

"As expected of a weekly sign-in, it's really impressive, and the quality is definitely higher than that of a daily sign-in."

"The additional attributes are also extremely important."

Xu Bing muttered to himself as he opened the system interface.

[Prestige: 99]

【Charm: 104】

Having absorbed the essence of "The Calamity of the Crows," Xu Bing's charm was enhanced, and the mysterious "evil" aura in his temperament deepened. Coupled with his strikingly handsome and aggressive appearance, it was impossible not to remember him at first glance.

You can tell at a glance that he's a bad man.

However, it doesn't give off that kind of insane "evil" vibe; rather, it's more like an extension of mystery.

Normally, one hundred is the maximum charm value, which is already maxed out.

Whether you are a Qi cultivator or an ordinary person, those who can reach level ninety are absolutely one in ten thousand, extremely rare.

In this world, there's no such thing as all Qi cultivators being handsome men and beautiful women; at most, they just generally have better skin.

The human body is formed by nature and is difficult to change after birth.

However, Xu Bingnai was a perfect mortal, and for him, there was no upper limit.

In terms of appearance alone, it's already approaching its limit. No matter how much it grows, it can't blossom into something extraordinary; a nose is still a nose, and eyes are still eyes.

Thinking about this, Xu Bing couldn't help but feel a little curious about what would happen if his charm value were higher.

……

Xu Bing slowly walked towards the room where Ji Yuan was.

open the door.

Ji Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked intently. He saw a tall figure standing at the doorway, nine feet tall, whose appearance was self-evident.

Even in Ji Yuan's eyes, which were originally filled with fierceness and anger, a ripple of emotion flickered for a moment.

In that moment of distraction, even the fierceness in his eyes was somewhat diminished.

It has to be said that the factor of appearance in this world is indeed undeniable.

Countless beautiful women have caused men to fall at their feet, and emperors to lose their empires.

The same principle applies here as well.

When charm reaches a certain level, even those who are detached from emotions and desires may be moved.

Besides, we are all just ordinary people, and we are all just common folk.

Even Xu Bing would be captivated and aroused by the allure of Ji Yuan's beauty.

He just managed to control himself.

Ji Yuan was in the same situation at that moment.

In fact, Xu Bing also came last night. She had been mentally prepared beforehand, but seeing him again still inevitably affected her to some extent.

I initially thought I was seeing things.

How come this guy has changed so much? He actually looks quite presentable now... Ji Yuan looked away, her breathing becoming heavier, but she pretended to be indifferent and said, "What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me again?"

"No, I just wanted to see if you were behaving yourself." Xu Bing looked you over carefully and nodded in satisfaction. "You're much more behaving yourself than you were a few days ago."

He opened the monarch panel.

Ji Yuan

[Identity: Empress of the Great Xi Dynasty]

[Martial Arts: Tongxuan Ninth Level]

[Status: Unable to move, overwhelmed by his handsomeness, heart racing, maintaining composure, anxiously waiting, restrained (medium)]

[Fortune: The Fortune of Nine Dragons Gathering in the Cauldron]

[Destiny: Extreme Imperial Destiny]

......

Xu Bing was detained here for several days. To his surprise, Ji Yuan actually found his good looks quite appealing.

But it’s right to think about it.

Without being immodest, I do have a pretty good appearance and figure.

Xu Bing didn't even dare to imagine what would happen to Ji Yuan once he turned thirty, gained more experience, and reached that age of intense desire, under the influence of worldly charms.

Xu Bing quickly pulled himself back to reality; this idea of ​​relying on "appearance" had to be completely discarded.

We dare not underestimate this emperor.

He asked, "Your Majesty, I heard... you once studied arts on Penglai Immortal Mountain? And you were quite familiar with the immortals there?"

Ji Yuan feigned nonchalance, "Of course."

Xu Bing sat down facing Ji Yuan, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the table.

The Penglai Immortal Mountain remains a potential threat.

According to the information revealed by Zhou Xiaoyou, Xu Bing knew that people from Penglai Immortal Mountain would probably arrive in about a month.

As for why it took so long... it's probably because the Penglai Immortal Mountain dares not interfere in mortal affairs, so it is extremely cautious about the matter of coming to Da Xi, and needs to conduct thorough review and consideration, which is why it took so long.

And this... is another source of Ji Yuan's confidence.

“Tell me about your senior brothers,” Xu Bing said.

Ji Yuan turned her head away with a cold laugh. He told her to speak, but who did he think she was?

But a few seconds later, he obediently and reluctantly told her.

Considering this guy's methods, whether or not to tell him is truly not up to me.

You get used to the humiliation.

Anyway, there's no one else around.

Penglai Immortal Mountain has three peaks. Ji Yuan was once valued by a peak master who wanted to take her as a disciple, but due to matters of destiny and fortune, he only accepted her as a nominal disciple in the end.

That peak master had eleven disciples, and Ji Yuan was the seventh.

There were six senior brothers and sisters ahead of him, and the impetuous Zhou Xiaoyou was the tenth.

After listening to the account, Xu Bing had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

“Xu Bing,” Ji Yuan suddenly said, “you dare not kill me, nor can you kill me.”

"The only reason you imprisoned me is because you're afraid that once I regain power, I'll order your execution, right?"

Ji Yuan's eyes held a hint of confidence.

After pondering for more than ten days, she gradually figured out her exact situation.

Only in this way can we better set conditions and negotiate.

If Xu Bing wanted to kill him, he wouldn't have needed to go through all this trouble by keeping him bound.

He was in pain, and he also needed daily care.

Ji Yuan estimated that what Xu Bing was really after was in the Da Xi.

"Oh?"

Xu Bing watched with great interest.

Ji Yuan looked over and stared directly into Xu Bing's eyes, her gaze carrying a slightly enigmatic meaning, but she quickly suppressed it.

She parted her red lips slightly, "How about this?"

"Let me go, and I won't kill you."

Ji Yuan paused for a moment, then said, "I am not young anymore, and it is impossible for me to remain childless forever. If you release me, I will make you my empress and I will not kill you. As for your appearance, it is quite good. I may tell you frankly that you are pleasing to my eye."

Her voice was slow, as if she were talking about something very ordinary.

Xu Bing glanced at her suspiciously, then opened the monarch panel to check its status.

[Status: Lust rising, attempting negotiation, rationality, attempting seduction, lying...]

Upon seeing the word "lying," Xu Bing sneered inwardly. That's more like it.

Even if the dignified Empress Da Xi had desires, she was not so easily swayed by them.

If only women like that were so easy to deal with.

Xu Bing, in his previous life, fought in the business world and knew one thing well: never be deceived by appearances, and always take the initiative.

"Your Majesty, you were already in my hands, why should I turn the tables?"

Xu Bing walked to the door, closed it, and his voice came into the room from outside, "Ji Yuan, playing such petty tricks is unbecoming of an emperor."

"Besides... if I wanted you, would you still be a virgin right now?"

"Xu Bingni!" Ji Yuan thought angrily, struggled for a few seconds, and then gave up helplessly.

She stared at the ceiling, sighed deeply, feeling utterly helpless and frustrated with nowhere to vent her emotions.

"When will I be able to see the light of day again...?"

From that moment of carelessness, she was imprisoned for a long time.

They lived in constant fear, unable to see the light of day.

Unable to stand, unable to walk... there was absolutely no freedom to speak of.
