Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division

"Thank you, sir."

The Holy Tree Mirror did not doubt his presence and sat at the table, taking a sip of tea.

"How about it? Did you find any clues about the cursed doll when you went out this time?" Zhou Yuniang asked.

"Replying to your lord, the second cursed doll has been found, and Chu Jinghong buried it in Jiang Tao's body." Holy Tree Mirror replied.

"Jiang Tao, is it him?"

Zhou Yuniang frowned slightly: "Half a year ago, I asked him to deal with the flood in Zhuhe River. In the past two days, the flood has ended, and I am preparing to transfer him to my side. Chu Jinghong is really good at choosing people."

"Yes, I think Chu Jinghong foresaw that you would reuse Jiang Tao, my lord, and that's why you buried the cursed doll in him."

"This way, even if you know about the cursed doll, it will not be easy to suspect him. After all, he returned to Lieyang City from outside."

Holy Tree Mirror agreed: "It's a pity that when my subordinates found Jiang Tao, the cursed doll fought hard, and my subordinates had no choice but to kill him and failed to bring him back alive."

"That's it!"

Zhou Yuniang waved her hands and sighed: "The person whose body was penetrated by the cursed doll is already dead. Even if you bring him back, he will not be Jiang Tao."

She shook her head, looked at the Holy Tree Mirror and smiled: "Ling Feng, you have made a great contribution this time."

"To be honest, while I asked you to investigate the cursed doll, I also paid a high price to hire people from the hive to investigate."

"It's not that I don't trust you, but the cursed doll involves Chu Jinghong after all. It's a very important matter. I must solve it as quickly as possible. Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Holy Tree Mirror stood up immediately.

He said seriously: "What are you talking about, sir? A two-pronged approach is the best way to solve the problem."

"This subordinate has always been loyal to you. As long as I can help you solve your problems, I am willing to do anything."

"So I hope you won't say such words again in the future."

Seeing his "loyal" look, Zhao Mu next to him laughed secretly in his heart. This guy's drama was a bit too much.

"Haha, I hope you understand."

Zhou Yuniang smiled and said: "Actually, Beehive has found a cursed doll a few days ago. I thought they would find the remaining two."

"But I didn't expect that you found the second cursed doll before the hive. It really surprised me."

"Yu Niang, not only you, Pindao is also very surprised."

Zhao Mu suddenly looked at the Holy Tree Mirror with a smile and said, "Han Lingfeng, Madam Yu asked me what I thought of you earlier. I didn't know you well at that time, so I didn't dare to make an evaluation easily."

"But this time, you really surprised Pindao. You were able to find the second cursed doll faster than the hive."

"Your ability is really strong."

"Taoist Master Wan Yu gave you false praise, and Han Lingfeng deserves it."

The holy tree mirror is in hand.

"Haha, there is no need to be humble. If you are capable, you should be praised. That's okay."

Zhao Mu smiled and said: "Yu Niang, it is really gratifying that you have such a capable person under your command. You must make more use of Han Lingfeng in the future."

"Don't worry, Taoist Master, Yu Niang always makes clear rewards and punishments when doing things. Naturally, she will not hesitate to reuse those who are capable."

Zhou Yuniang nodded in response.

The two of them sang together and praised the holy tree so much that they even doubted whether they were really loyal to their duties?

Zhou Yuniang looked at the Holy Tree Mirror again: "Ling Feng, you just came back, go and rest today and come back to work tomorrow."

"Yes, sir, I will take my leave first."

Holy Tree Mirror promised, then turned and left.

The door to the study room was closed, and Zhou Yuniang's face instantly darkened.

"Taoist Master, is this Han Lingfeng really pretending to be Holy Tree Mingjing?"

"Haha, you can't believe it, can you?"

Zhao Mu smiled and said: "That's right. After all, Han Lingfeng has followed you for many years and has gained your trust. And this Holy Tree Mirror plays a very similar role. It's not surprising that you don't want to believe it."

"But there's nothing I can do about it. He is indeed the Holy Tree Mirror. No matter how much he acts like him, he still won't be Han Lingfeng."

"And when Pindao was deducing his identity, he also saw another thing in the secret."

"What's the matter?" Zhou Yuniang asked.

"The Emperor once sent you a message saying that Chu Jinghong buried a cursed doll for three of your men overnight."

"And I saw in the secret that on that night, the secrets of Chu Jinghong and Holy Tree Mingjing had intersected for a period of time."

"What does this mean, do you understand?"

Zhao Mu stared at Zhou Yuniang.

"It means that on that night, Holy Tree Mingjing also had a cursed doll buried in his body by Chu Jinghong?"

Zhou Yuniang frowned: "If this is true, doesn't it mean that the Holy Tree Mingjing has also been controlled by Chu Jinghong?"

"not necessarily."

Zhao Mu shook his head: "In the secret, I not only saw the intersection between Chu Jinghong and Holy Tree Mingjing, but also saw a burst of heavenly power appearing on Holy Tree Mingjing on the same night."

"Do you still remember when the five masters, after the final selection of the destined person, said that they would give the Holy Tree Mirror a Heavenly Star Stone to allow him to further adapt to the power of Heaven within a thousand years?"

"Of course I remember."

Zhou Yuniang nodded: "The Taoist Master is saying that the power of heaven that appeared that night came from the heavenly star stone?"

"pretty close."

Zhao Mu affirmed: "If my prediction is correct, the cursed doll should have entered the body that night, stimulating the power of the Heavenly Dao Star Stone."

"And it was also under the protection of the Tiandao Star Stone that the Holy Tree Mirror finally escaped the control of the cursed doll and saved its life."

"Holy Tree Mingjing is a man of destiny after all. Although his destiny is a bit unsatisfactory, he should not die like this."

"That's right. If he, the destined person, had died, I'm afraid the five masters would have arrived long ago. How could there be no movement so far?"

Zhou Yuniang smiled and said: "Come to think of it, Chu Jinghong may still think that Han Lingfeng is controlled by him."

"Haha, this is an opportunity for you."

Zhao Mu gently blew the tea leaves in the cup and said, "It should be three months before Gu Wuxue can offer sacrifices to heaven, right?"

"Didn't you always want to delay Chu Jinghong's action? Just in time, we have already taken away two of the three cursed dolls."

"The only remaining holy tree, Mingjing, has obviously lost control, but Chu Jinghong doesn't know it yet."

"He also regards Holy Tree Mirror as the only bargaining chip against you. What do you think will happen if Holy Tree Mirror is moved away from Lieyang City now?"

Zhou Yuniang thoughtfully said: "The cursed doll must be close to me before it can be transferred into my body. Therefore, moving the Holy Tree Mirror away from Lieyang City is equivalent to preventing the possibility of the cursed doll entering my body."

"At the same time, Chu Jinghong believes that the Holy Tree Mirror is his only chance to curse me, so if I transfer the Holy Tree Mirror away, it will force Chu Jinghong to postpone his action."

"This will naturally buy us time."

"Haha, that's exactly it." Zhao Mu smiled.

"call……"

Zhou Yuniang sighed: "There are only three months left. I hope these three months will pass smoothly without any further setbacks."

"As long as three months are up, I will be able to obtain the complete destiny fruit and become a master who is not a master."

"Only then can I truly and completely control the Southern Territory."

Her eyes showed strong ambition.
