Miao Sisi’s voice became increasingly gloomy as she said, “It seems I can’t ignore the problem with the Ye family. Is that what I hired you for?!”

The man knelt and said fearfully, “Please calm down, Lady Sisi. I’ve been paying close attention to the Ye family. Give me a chance to redeem myself.”

He feared Miao Sisi would kill him. After all, she had done so countless times, causing the tribe leader to become annoyed. Moreover, the leader was too ill to manage the tribe’s affairs. Ultimately, Miao Sisi took over the leadership role.

The tribe had been neutral in the past, but Tuoba Liuyun’s appearance changed everything.

Miao Sisi looked at her subordinate and said calmly, “It’s just the Ye family. We have others that can control the south. I’ll leave it to you, but you know the consequences of failure, correct?”

The man trembled, saying, “Yes, M’lady.”

“You may leave.”

Meanwhile, Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an remained hidden by concealing their auras. Su Binglan could kill Miao Siisi as if stomping on an ant, but she wanted to understand more about the situation first.

A while later, someone else entered the room, covered in a black aura. Miao Sisi’s cold expression turned delicate when she saw this person. “Liuyun, you’re finally back. I was worried something might’ve happened to you.”

Tuoba Liuyun said, “Why would you need to worry about me? You’re overthinking things. Have you done everything I’ve asked?”

Miao Sisi asked unhappily, “Did you come here just to question me?”

Tuoba Liuyun hugged her and softened his tone, saying, “You know I’m anxious to complete these tasks for my cause. Then, I can make you the empress and the most respected woman in the country.

“I’ve always wanted to take you away from here and give you your rightful place on the throne. This place shouldn’t restrict your talents.

“Once you become the empress, you’ll no longer have to deal with pointless tribe matters. You can do whatever you want, and everyone will listen to you.” Tuoba Liuyun continued to tempt Miao Sisi.

As expected, his words worked well. Although Miao Sisi trusted him, she could not help but ask, “Is that true?”

“Of course, it is. You know how I feel about you,” Tuoba Liuyun replied, “I even killed your sister for you, didn’t I?”

Miao Sisi had been jealous of her sister since childhood. The former felt relieved now that she thought Miao Zhizhi was dead.

Miao Sisi wanted to tell Tuoba Liuyun about what had happened in the south but chose not to after noticing his unhappy expression. She said, “It won’t be long before the south belongs to us.”

Tuoba Liuyun nodded. “You haven’t found the token yet, have you?”

“I will soon enough,” Miao Sisi said as she lowered her head.

Tuoba Liuyun added, “We can control the Black Shadow Pavilion once we find the token. The assassins there are extraordinary. Once we have control of them, we can kill anyone who disobeys us, including those in the Imperial Court and Palace.”

Miao Sisi was a little worried. “I heard there are formidable secret guards in the palace. Can the Black Shadow Pavilion assassins even infiltrate the palace?”

“Don’t worry. The assassins are just as formidable, if not better. Still, we can’t mobilize them without the token.”

Those in the martial arts world generally did not want to interfere with the powers of the Imperial Court. However, that would change if Tuoba Liuyun had the token.

Tuoba Liuyun said, “We have access to the Thundercloud Castle, too. How are things going with them?”

“I used parasites to control them. They wouldn’t dare to betray me. I also got them to start making weapons for us. They’ll be able to supply our army very soon.”

Tuoba Liuyun had informed his team about his plans, but he still needed weapons. Therefore, he influenced Thundercloud Castle because they had a large amount of iron ores that he could use to forge his weapons.

Although it was a challenge for him to make them loyal to him, he had access to the Miao Tribe’s secret voodoo techniques and parasites. With those, the people of Thundercloud Castle became his puppets.

He knew how terrifying the Miao Tribe’s secret techniques were and wanted to use them in his fight for power. However, he would first attack the Miao tribe after taking the throne.

Miao Sisi did not know Tuoba Liuyun’s true intentions and only trusted him because he had manipulated her with sweet talk and good looks. She also helped Tuoba Liuyun because she wanted to become the empress and gain everyone’s attention.

Instead of staying with her tribe and following their rules, Miao Sisi wanted to leave because she hated their rules.

Miao Sisi and Tuoba Liuyun continued to talk, thinking that no one could hear them. However, they did not know that Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an had been eavesdropping on their plans.

When Tuoba Liuyun left in the middle of the night, the couple emerged from the shadows, shocking Miao Sisi. “Wh-who are—”

She was about to scream when Su Binglan stopped her. The latter even set up a magical barrier that blocked sounds from escaping the room. Su Binglan said smilingly, “You don’t need to know who we are.”

She did not want to waste time questioning Miao Sisi, only for the latter to resist. Instead, she palmed Miao Sisi’s forehead and exuded a blue light that enveloped Miao Sisi.

Su Binglan then accessed Miao Sisi’s mind and gained pieces of her past conversations. Although this method could make people lose their minds, Su Binglan did not care because Miao Sisi had harmed and killed many others.

Su Binglan raised her brows as she read Miao Sisi’s memories, “Two people are controlling the tribe leader. Miao Sisi is one of them, and she has used black magic to control her.”
