The Aloof Lord's Mysterious Wife-Chapter 480: Then She Should Take Care of the Idle Matters and Eliminate the Harm for the People

Chapter 480: Then She Should Take Care of the Idle Matters and Eliminate the Harm for the People

The Talisman radiated an eerie, sinister glow and exuded a chilling aura. Nanli immediately recognized that this was a remote reinforcement for an evil Talisman array.

There were guards all around, and the platform was protected by a Talisman barrier to ensure that the four practitioners were not disturbed. She raised an eyebrow.

The copper coin’s direction was certainly a divine mandate.

Since that was the case, she might as well take care of some idle matters and eliminate the harm for the people.

With a swift leap, she stepped forward, drawing out the Dark Moon Sword and slashing upward, immediately breaking through the protective barrier. Cold wind swept around.

"Thief!"

"It’s a woman! How did she break the wizards’ Talisman array?!"

"Quick, subdue her!"

The guards, seeing her, ran over with their swords drawn. Nanli threw a Body-Freezing Talisman, causing the guards to be instantly immobilized.

The wizards on the platform were terrified, sweat pouring down their faces.

Why did a young woman suddenly appear?

Her beauty aside, she was so powerful!

Realizing their serious responsibilities, they did not withdraw.

Nanli blinked and asked, "If you four don’t stop, do you want to lose your heads?"

The wizards shuddered.

How arrogant!

One of the wizards, infuriated, said, "We are wizards! We’re here on the national lord’s orders to handle important matters. If you dare to attack us, you will never leave the palace!"

Nanli’s eyes lit up with insight. "I’ve heard that you practice Taoist arts and also the Enchanting Bugs. This is why you’ve been awarded titles and have the status of wizards. Since you four are highly valued by the national lord, you must have considerable skills."

The four wizards raised their eyebrows, feeling very proud. "Indeed, we are the most powerful wizards in Border Nation!"

"Then do you know how to solve Heart-Uniting Enchanting Bug?" Nanli continued to ask.

The earlier wizard’s gaze paused upon hearing her words. "Why are you asking about this?"

The Heart-Uniting Enchanting Bug is specifically used by the royal family. What exactly is her background?

Nanli looked at him indifferently. "Wrong answer."

She stepped onto the platform, and the sinister aura could not harm her in the least.

"What are you trying to do..." The wizard was panic-stricken.

Although her face remained calm, her killing intent was palpable.

The wizard hurriedly withdrew, and with a flick of his sleeve, several toxic Enchanting Bugs flew out!

However, before the toxic Enchanting Bugs could reach Nanli, they were swallowed by a burst of intense flames. The scorched remains fell to the ground.

The wizard stared wide-eyed, watching his painstakingly cultivated toxic Enchanting Bugs being incinerated instantly. He was both enraged and heartbroken. Nanli stepped forward and kicked him down. Her kick was strong, and the wizard was sent rolling several meters away, falling unconscious.

The night was dark.

Nanli turned around. Under the intoxicating moonlight, her cheeks were rosy and smooth, but her killing intent remained undiminished as her eyes swept over the remaining three wizards.

"Ha ha ha..."

The three wizards felt their scalps tingle, forcing a dry laugh as they withdrew their hands. Without their power, the sinister Talisman fell back to the ground.

The youngest-looking wizard, being the most shrewd, bowed and spoke respectfully to Nanli, "Miss, the Heart-Uniting Enchanting Bug is used by the royal family to maintain control. To solve it, you need to use our Border Nation’s treasure, the King of Enchanting Bugs!"

Nanli nodded slightly. "Then where is the King of Enchanting Bugs?"

The three wizards exchanged glances.

The young wizard looked pleadingly. "Miss, the King of Enchanting Bugs is a national treasure of Border Nation. We..."

Nanli’s expression was impassive. She stamped her foot, causing a small pit to appear where she stood, with cracks spreading out directly to the three wizards.

The three wizards trembled, their bodies shaking uncontrollably.

They huddled together and said, "The King of Enchanting Bugs is usually inherited by the national lord. However... the King of Enchanting Bugs was recently sent out on a mission by the national lord. We don’t know its exact location; only the national lord knows."

Even this mission was carried out on orders, and they didn’t know where the Talisman array was.

Nanli had anticipated this.

However, coming alone to the Border Nation palace, she was unprepared for a fight.

She asked, "Then where does your national lord reside, how many guards are in the palace, and what kind of Talisman barriers are there?"

The three wizards were almost in tears. "Miss, please show mercy. If we tell you, how can we face the national lord and Border Nation..."

Nanli took a step forward, and the young wizard hurriedly said, "Miss, we’re doing this for your sake. The national lord of Border Nation... is extremely cruel. His palace is guarded by Eight Paws Evil Bee, which is highly toxic. If you are stung by its needle, you will be poisoned and die instantly."

Nanli touched her chin. "I didn’t expect Border Nation to have Eight Paws Evil Bee. It seems Xuanyuan Cang specifically left some behind when he used them."

The young wizard was stunned. "You... have you fought Eight Paws Evil Bee before?"

Years ago, the former king took Eight Paws Evil Bee to Mu Nation for an important mission. The mission failed, and the carefully cultivated Evil Bees were all wiped out.

If it weren’t for a wizard’s suggestion to leave a few behind, the Evil Bees might have been extinct by now.

This woman must be from Mu Nation!

She is skilled in Talisman arts, strong, and her appearance is exceptional...

The young wizard pointed at her, astonished, his voice trembling. "You... you are Mu Nation’s Ninth Princess! What are you doing in Border Nation?!"

"What?!" The other two were even more surprised, staring at Nanli without blinking.

Nanli brushed her hair and neither confirmed nor denied it. "Then in the palace, are there any other monsters or traps?" freewebnoveℓ.com

The young wizard immediately knelt, bowing devoutly.

Nanli frowned. "What do you mean?"

When the young wizard looked up, his face was already covered in tears. "The national lord, relying on his control over monsters, ignores the ministers’ advice and forcibly takes many young women into the palace. Almost every night... every night, he has several virgins."

When Nanli arrived in Border Nation, she had seen officials searching for beautiful women.

To travel conveniently, she had disguised herself as a man using a Face-Changing Talisman.

Upon reaching the Border Nation palace, she intended to settle accounts with Xuanyuan Fu, so she naturally had to reveal her true self.

She pursed her lips. "And then?"

The young wizard wiped his eyes and continued, "He has a perversion. None of the women who serve him in the bedroom survive. My... my sister was also captured and is about to be chosen to serve him. If the Ninth Princess can end him, my sister will be saved!"

The other two wizards were infuriated. "He Qinian, you traitor! How dare you be disloyal and unjust to the national lord!"

He Qinian glared at them fiercely. "If it weren’t for your sister, you would be standing here without feeling any pain! I’ve begged the national lord before, but he punished my elderly mother and ordered me to keep silent, or he would kill my whole family! How can I be loyal to such a person!"

The other two wizards fell silent instantly.

How could they not understand?

This Border Nation’s ruler... is increasingly deranged and cruel.
