"The little girl was looking for the Green Leaf Dagger martial skill, but was cheated out of 990,000 silver, which made her so angry that she almost died. The Lie family had a secret skill that allowed them to find even the tiniest hint of a clue, and it was said that it was related to the palace, so they let me come here and let everyone dream to find that person and take the martial skill back."
Xiao Yu couldn't be bothered to look down on Nightmare's IQ.
Mu Xiaoling was speechless. She was the one who had caused all this trouble. "Could it be that everyone is dreaming?"
"A hundred years ago, I was sealed in the lower realms by a bastard of the Upper Realm for a hundred years, and I still haven't completely recovered. It isn't difficult for me to dream about this, but I can't say that I want to dream about it."
Xiao Yu's thin lips slightly curled up as he directly spat out two words, "Idiot."
"…" Mu Xiaoling wanted to support her forehead, but why was Xiao Yu pinching the death point of the nightmare? Seeing that the nightmare was about to explode again, she hastily said, "Is there any other way?"
"There is one way …" The Nightmare Terror felt a bit embarrassed. "We need a point to enter the dreamland. As long as we destroy it, the dreamland will collapse and everyone will wake up. It's just that …"
Mu Xiaoling knew that because of her, she couldn't allow others to be implicated by her. "Speak."
The Nightmare said, "After entering your dreams, your memories will become a mess. My strength is currently unstable, so I don't know what happens inside. Everything depends on you."
Mu Xiaoling immediately agreed. "Alright, then I'll enter my dreams and you can guard me."
Nightmare rolled his eyes. "Fine, just you wait." Then he blew out a burst of colored bubbles.
Mu Xiaoling only saw the bubble rapidly slam into her head before her vision turned black and her body fell backwards.
Xiao Yu immediately extended his hand to catch Mu Xiaoling. However, in the next moment, a bubble that was hidden in Mu Xiaoling's hair struck his body.
Xiao Yu wasn't able to react in time and fell asleep together with Mu Xiaoling.
"Miss, Miss, please wake up. This is the birth date of the Marquis today. If you're late, you'll be scolded by the Marquis again!"
Mu Xiaoling felt a ruckus in her ear. At the same time, a hand suddenly touched her shoulder. She subconsciously struck back and grabbed the man's wrist. She pulled it to the side and immediately sat up.
"Miss, you've hurt this servant!"
Mu Xiaoling opened her eyes and saw a girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes looking at her with an aggrieved expression. The person she was holding onto was none other than this young maid. She asked with doubt, "Who are you?"
The young maid was stunned, and timidly replied, "This servant is Miss's personal maid, Xueqing."
Mu Xiaoling thought hard and her mind went blank. She couldn't remember anything. She frowned as she muttered to herself, "Then who am I?"
Xue Qing was frightened. "Miss, you're the Eldest Miss of our Residence of An Le, Mu Xiaoling. Please don't scare this servant. This servant will go find a doctor right now."
"No need, I was just sleeping in a daze." Mu Xiaoling subconsciously felt that it wasn't good to see a doctor. Moreover, there seemed to be a voice in her mind telling her that she was indeed the Eldest Miss of the An Le's manor.
"Alright, this servant will help you wash." Xue Qing's movements were quick. She skillfully took out a light purple flower dress for Mu Xiaoling to wear after taking care of Mu Xiaoling.
Mu Xiaoling had a strange feeling. Even though every cell in her body was unfamiliar with Xue Qing's service, they were still very proficient at it. It was clear that it wasn't something that could be formed overnight.
The face in the mirror was probably the only thing she knew.
Mu Xiaoling forced herself to endure, but she finally walked out of the room after her work with Xue Qing and her hairpin in her step and her makeup in front of her.
The sun was shining brightly outside, and it seemed to be quite early as well. It was probably because of the incident in the morning that had scared Xueqing so much that she had rushed to lead the way.
Mu Xiaoling felt at ease as she followed behind him. Her eyes carefully observed her surroundings. The scenery of the Residence of An Le was really good. However, it was completely foreign to her and simply never appeared in her memories.
But at this moment, the voice spoke again, as if it was whispering everything here to her ear, including even some inexplicable memories. For example, she had once picked a flower in the front garden, and then fell down beside a fake mountain.
Mu Xiaoling's entire body tensed up. This feeling was completely wrong. After all, she was the king among all the secret agents. How could she be fooled by such a cheap trick?!
But, Agent... What is it?
What was transmigration?
Mu Xiaoling felt her head hurt as she thought too much. At this moment, they arrived at the main hall.
However, when she saw the two people sitting in front of her, she instantly froze.
Those two were Mu Zhenqiu and Nangong Wen, her parents!
Nangong Wen quickly grabbed onto Mu Xiaoling's hand with a pained expression on her face, "Why is Ling'Er so dispirited? Did she not sleep well last night?"
Mu Xiaoling excitedly grabbed Nangong Wen's hand. She didn't know why, but she was very happy that this person was still alive.
"Madam, please don't let her go so easily." Mu Zhenqiu had a solemn expression. "You're about to turn old and you're about to get married. How can I rely on you so much?"
Mu Xiaoling looked at Mu Zhenqiu with endless disgust. She wanted nothing more than to crush him to death.
Mu Zhenqiu puffed his beard as he glared at her. "Look at her. As a father, I've only said a few words and she's already like this. How great will she be in the future?"
Nangong Wen stared at him in annoyance: "Isn't it because you are usually too strict with her? We only have this one daughter, why aren't you treating her better?"
Mu Zhenqiu sighed. "My Mu family holds the military power, and countless people are watching us from the outside. We only have this one precious daughter. Isn't this all for her own good?"
Nangong Wen nodded as she understood. She thought about persuading Ling'Er when she got back.
Mu Xiaoling was completely shocked by Mu Zhenqiu's fatherly look. Her eyes were filled with awkwardness as she felt that the real Mu Zhenqiu shouldn't be like this. Furthermore, Mu Zhenqiu shouldn't only have a daughter …
Mu Zhenqiu said, "Alright, you guys should tidy up this matter properly. Our guest will arrive in a moment."
Only then did Mu Xiaoling remember that Xue Qing had said that it was Mu Zhenqiu's birthday. She was dragged by Nangong Wen to another courtyard to entertain the female guests.
There were more and more people in the hall, all of them being the wives and misses of different families. With all of them being held by Nangong Wen, Mu Xiaoling's little face froze and she felt that the time was getting slower and slower.
Nangong Wen looked at Mu Xiaoling helplessly, "Forget it, you can go for a walk."
Mu Xiaoling quickly nodded her head. She was afraid that Nangong Wen would go back on her words. She ran out the door like the wind. Her speed was so fast that it was as if there was a wild beast chasing her.
