Everyone was discussing and complaining about the misfortunes they had encountered outside. As Mu Ying listened inside, his killing intent intensified. He planned to report this matter to the Emperor and severely punish these corrupt officials and scum.
Hearing everyone's words, Xue Ruoyun felt even more assured in his heart.
"What if someone severely punishes the corrupt officials outside and still manages to plow the land with houses that have been seized? We can all live outside and continue to live on the island. What do you think?" Xue Luoyun said.
"Sigh, if it can be like this, then that would be the best. "But now that we are under the protection of the officials, who would be willing to preside over this justice for us?"
"That's right. We've dreamed of this countless times. However, we can only imagine that the imperial government has sent people to surround us many times despite not knowing why. How would they support us?"
"Only the King can guarantee the life on this island. Apart from him, who else would care about our lives?" It seemed like everyone was still dissatisfied with the imperial government.
Seeing that everyone looked forward to this kind of life, but no one cared about it, Xue Ruoyun felt relieved in his heart. Leng Yue, who was sitting inside, could not help but nod her head.
Seeing that the paving was almost done, Xue Ruoyun knew that the time was ripe. It was time to call Mu Ying and Leng Yue out.
"I know what everyone is thinking. Actually, since coming to this island, I have already treated all of you as my family. I also hope that you can live a happy and comfortable life as you wished. Thus, the reason why I called everyone here today is to announce a piece of good news to everyone: You can now live the life that you want to live! "
"Really, that's impossible, my God!" Everyone had a look of disbelief on their faces. After a short period of excitement, they found it hard to believe.
"I know. For a moment, people couldn't believe it. Then I'll make you believe it. "Next, I'll first invite a general." After speaking, Xue Ruoyun invited Mu Sheng out.
At this time, Mu Sheng slowly walked out from the inner hall.
He had a steady and handsome face with a natural awe-inspiring aura of a king.
Seeing that it was a general from the imperial government who had walked out, everyone turned pale with fright. All of them retreated, and a few hall masters in front even drew their sabers.
It was because he was the frightening Great General. It had only been half a day, and he had already driven everyone to the top of this mountain. This ability was too astonishing, and it was far from what the weak troops from before could do.
"Did you do something to our King!?" Meng Meng Meng had fought with him before and knew how powerful he was, but now that he was here, he immediately knew that something had happened to his king. Although he knew that he wasn't a match for Mu Ying, for the sake of the King, he still bravely pointed his saber at Mu Ying and asked.
Mu Ying coldly glanced at Meng Meng Meng. A threatening, cold light shot out from his eyes. The big and tall man's heart suddenly felt waves of coldness.
Mu Ying had always been high and mighty. So far, none of those who dared to point a saber at him had ever lived to see the light of day. If it weren't for the fact that today's goal was to recruit him, as well as giving him face, Meng Meng Meng would have long since become a ghost under his sword.
Seeing this situation, Xue Ruyun immediately calmed down everyone's hearts. He stepped forward and pushed away Meng Meng Meng's blade, "Calm down, everyone. "Don't get excited."
Once Meng Meng found the bottom of the stairs, he hurriedly put down his saber. He no longer had the courage to lift it. He didn't dare to look into Mu Rong Hao's eyes, because the aura emitted from within was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
"Actually, everyone only knows that this person is a great general. However, they do not know his true identity. When I tell you who he is, everyone will change their opinion of him. " Xue Ruyun confidently said.
"Who is he?" A man standing in the back bravely asked
"I wonder if everyone has ever heard of the famous Great General Mu Ying of our Western Lion Country?"
"Of course I've heard of him. I heard that he fought on the battlefield for many years without a single victor, which was why he was able to protect the peace of our Western Lion Country for so long. He is not only the current prince, but also the respected general of our people, the hero in everyone's heart. He hated evil with all his heart for the sake of the people, and he often cried out for injustice for them. "
"That's right." Xue Ruoyun nodded, and now that the hero is standing in front of everyone, everyone actually doesn't recognize him. Xue Ruyun pointed at Mu Sheng.
"What!?" "It can't be?" Everyone was dumbstruck. They never thought that standing in front of them, this person was actually the great general that they revered in their hearts.
"Impossible, the legendary General Mu is holding the people in his heart. If he is, then why did he surround and annihilate our pirate island? He even injured all of us." One of them, disbelieving, raised his doubts.
"That's because the corrupt officials outside lied and reported the situation here. They described us as pirates who committed all sorts of crimes and oppressed the common people. That's why the imperial government sent General Mu to besiege them. "Actually, the general's original intention was good, it's just that he was deceived. Moreover, in the battle between the two armies, casualties were inevitable, so you can't blame him for this."
Hearing Xue Ruyun's words, Mu Ying looked at him gratefully. Everyone fell silent, feeling conflicted.
"Everyone, the reason why I came here to clear up the misunderstanding was because of the corruption in officials. Also, to apologize, I will give you a promise today. A guarantee. "Now that I know the truth about this place, I, Mu Ying, promise everyone that this time, I will punish all corrupt officials severely and return peace and tranquility to everyone." Mu Ying promised.
"General Xie, General Mu is a good person."
"We have eyes but failed to recognize Mt. Tai, but we don't recognize the general. Please spare our lives." Hearing Mu Ying's promise, everyone was grateful and overjoyed.
"However, we must inform the King about this. Let the King decide for us." In everyone's eyes, being the most close, trustworthy, and giving them the greatest sense of security was still something that needed to be decided by him.
"Yeah, where's the King's Path? Why haven't I seen him today?" Everyone began to worry.
"Don't worry, the King is in the inner hall. I will invite her out now, but the King has made a small change, please do not be surprised." Xue Ruyun mysteriously said.
"Cough cough, thank you for trusting me so much. To be honest, I'm very touched." At this moment, a girl dressed up walked out.
She covered her face with a folding fan, but her voice was truly majestic.
"Great King, what is this?" The crowd asked in confusion.
"Everyone, today I want to announce something to everyone." Leng Yue said through her folding fan.
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"Alright, then I won't beat around the bush." After Leng Yue had finished speaking, she closed the folding fan.
"Ah, this, this..." The person closest to her, Meng Meng Meng, was so frightened that he almost fell down. Everyone opened their mouths wide in shock. They couldn't even close their jaws.
The figure and appearance of this peerlessly beautiful young woman in front of them were actually identical to their King. Even their voices were not the slightest bit different.
Seeing Wei Duhong in such a state, he looked extremely charming, charming, and charming. He was completely different from the usual handsome and mighty Great King. For a moment, no one was able to react. Just what was going on?
"Actually, I'm a woman …" When Leng Yue saw everyone's shocked expressions, she coughed twice and said.
When they saw that their king, whom they spent most of their time with, had suddenly become a woman, everyone was filled with mixed emotions. They didn't know how to describe it, but they were all mesmerized by her beauty.
"I'm sorry, I've been lying to everyone. I've always been a woman." Leng Yue bowed deeply. Speak again.
What happened today was really too strange. No one knew how to respond, so they could only stare blankly at her as they tried their best to piece together the broken thoughts in their minds.
"I know it's hard to accept, but I can prove that she, your King, is a woman." Xue Ruyun stood up for Leng Yue.
They had always thought that they were a divine couple with a perfect couple. Why had his overlord become a woman? He wasn't a husband and wife, but rather a sister. Everyone was a bit disappointed.
When he thought about his brother who risked her life with everyone, he realized that she was actually a woman, and such a charming one at that. When the pirates recalled that they had to hug her back when she was naked, they all felt a little shy and a little annoyed. Everyone should have thought of her suspicious behavior earlier.
He never shared a bath with anyone, never approached a woman, wrapped up in the hottest summer day, not bare-chested and bare-chested like everyone else.
"Since you're a woman, why are you dressed like a man all these years?" One of the pavilion masters voiced his confusion. This was also the doubt in everyone's heart.
Actually, many years ago, when I came to this island, I was a woman. It was just that it was convenient to travel in the martial arts world, so I dressed up as a man. When I was outside, I was either a man or a woman, so I didn't feel that anything was amiss.
Later, when I came to Pirates Island, I wanted to join everyone and become a pirate, but since women couldn't be pirates, I changed into men's clothes, so it didn't really matter.
After we got to know each other, we went through life and death together and became brothers, so I always dressed up as a man.
I didn't expect that after so long, when I became more and more familiar with everyone, everyone would choose me as their king. At that time, I wanted to reveal my secret, but I couldn't do anything about the foreign invaders. At such a crucial moment, it wasn't good for me to decline.
From then on, whenever I wanted to reveal my identity, I never found a good opportunity. Until today, the Prince said that he wanted to enlist Pirate Island to support everyone. I can guarantee that we will all be able to live a peaceful life from now on, without needing me anymore, so I can finally let go of this burden and speak of this matter.
Leng Yue recounted the entire story.
"I hope everyone doesn't blame me." Leng Yue clasped her hands together, looking at everyone with a bit of unease.
Everyone was stunned for a moment. The hall was so silent that even the sound of a needle dropping on the ground could be heard. Leng Yue looked at Xue Muyun, but said nothing. She wanted to give everyone a buffer of time.
