"Me?"
Xiaosuisui blinked and pointed at her own face, asking.
Ji Youzhi made a fist as if to punch someone.
"Thatās right, who exactly are you?
Why are you occupying my precious nieceās body?"
Xiaosuisui was so confused by what she heard that she blinked hard and asked, "Seventh Uncle, are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?
I donāt understand a single word of it!"
"Donāt play dumb with me, and donāt take me for a fool. I ask you, the day before yesterday in North City, was it you who tricked MoāErās people?"
Uh...
Xiaosuisui scratched her head with a grin and laughed, "Seventh Uncle! Didnāt you teach me not to reveal the truth once Iāve seen through it?
You know very well that Ah Ling taught me all that. Just quietly pretend you donāt know. Asking me outright like this really makes me embarrassed!"
Ji Youzhi: "..." Can this little girl even get embarrassed?
"Was it really Ah Ling who taught you?" Ji Youzhi confirmed one last time, looking into the little girlās eyes.
Xiaosuisui nodded candidly, "It was Ah Ling who taught me. She said Xunyang is able to create so many assimilated people and even let MoāEr take the huge risk of bringing troops into the Central Plains because Xunyang knows how to exploit human nature.
He amplifies their desires by countless times, allowing those desires to take root and grow.
So, we can naturally use their desires to create an environment for them, letting them fall into the fantasy of ascending the throne that I conjured with the Soul-Calling Bell!"
Hearing what the little girl said, Ji Youzhiās eyes opened wide in surprise.
"So, in the latter part of our confrontation, when MoāEr suddenly listened to you about ascending the throne and having everyone bow, it was entirely a fantasy realm you created using the Soul-Calling Bell combined with your Illusion Technique?"
Xiaosuisui nodded, "Thatās right! Everything I said, Ah Ling taught me.
You wouldnāt believe it, Seventh Uncle. I was so nervous at the time, afraid that Iād say something wrong and arouse MoāErās suspicion, and everything would be ruined.
But luckily, everything went smoothly in the end, and we achieved a great victory."
The little girl tilted her head and laughed with a giggle.
Her big eyes blinked, smiling so much that her eyes seemed to disappear, which made Ji Youzhi couldnāt resist pinching her little cheek, and he said.
"You, you! I really donāt know what to say to you! From now on, donāt act recklessly in such matters. Your habit of passing out after using your power always scares the life out of your Seventh Uncle!"
"Itās no big deal!
My Seventh Uncle wonāt be scared to death!
By the way, Seventh Uncle, how is His Majestyās godfather?
Is he healed?
When can we go back?"
"I just received news that your His Majestyās godfather has already reached Yugu Pass under the National Masterās personal escort. Now his condition has improved, and your pretty sister... pretty aunt has also arrived at Yugu Pass.
Iām sure she will take good care of your His Majestyās godfather."
"Oh!"
Xiaosuisui nodded, yawned, and tilted her head as if ready to sleep again.
Ji Youzhi grabbed her and quickly said.
"Please donāt sleep yet, eat a little something first, and fill your stomach before you sleep, okay?"
Just as he finished speaking, someone came in with trays of chicken, duck, fish, and rice porridge.
The smell of the delicious food instantly perked her up, and she quickly jumped out of bed.
"It smells so good! And Iām starving."
The little girl said as she jumped off the bed, then looked up and blinked, asking curiously, "Why are you here?"
