Chapter 408 The Secret Revealed
Seeing everyone taking their seats, Chu Fengmian coughed lightly, clearing his throat. He then extended his slender finger and pointed at "Xuanfeng Sanren" without warning, saying leisurely, "Xiaoli'er, you always act like an old man. Aren't you tired?"
These sudden words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing a thousand waves.
Shen Li raised her head in astonishment, her eyes full of disbelief.
She was surprised that Chu Fengmian could see through the little koi's disguise at a glance, but then she thought that even Bai Fan's secret could not be hidden from him, so it seemed reasonable that he knew the little koi's identity.
Amidst the inquiring gazes of the crowd and the questioning look from the little koi, Shen Li took a deep breath and said to the little koi, "Little koi, you can become whatever you like."
Everyone only saw a flash of white light before their eyes, and the originally immortal-looking Xuanfeng Sanren instantly transformed into a teenage boy in a bright red dress.
The young man had a nimble figure, bright eyes, and playfully raised eyebrows. He cupped his fists and said to everyone, "Hello everyone! I'm the master's pet, Little Koi! You can call me Little Carp!"
"You, you, you are pretending to be a god!" Nangong Qi stood up suddenly like a cat whose tail was stepped on, pointing at Xiaoli with disbelief on his face.
Su Ran understood some things in his heart at this time. He couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head helplessly.
Luo Lingchen stared at Shen Li with a burning gaze, his eyes filled with inquiry and curiosity. He felt that things were becoming increasingly confusing.
Shen Li felt a little embarrassed by the stares, scratched his head, and explained: "The situation was difficult before, so I had no choice but to let Xiaoli come out to scare them."
Luo Lingchen hesitated for a moment, then asked the question that had been bothering him for a while: "What's going on with your immortal pet and the corn? I've been so curious for so long! After all, you haven't gone abroad to look for these things!"
Shen Li looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
At this moment, Tianji Pavilion Master Chu Fengmian spoke again, his voice low but penetrating: "I've been waiting for this opportunity to gather you all together today! Shen Li is the Emperor Star of another world. Her mission is to unite the four nations and integrate them into one!"
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap exploding in everyone's minds. For a moment, the entire room fell into a deathly silence, which was then broken by the turbulent waves in everyone's hearts.
Nangong Qi's eyes lit up instantly, like a burning flame, staring at Shen Li closely.
Empress! He repeated this word in his mind over and over again. In this way, his wish would be fulfilled!
Su Ran looked at Shen Li in astonishment, and Nangong Qi's wish involuntarily emerged in her mind.
He subconsciously turned his gaze to Nangong Qi again, thinking that it was not a bad thing for Xiqi Kingdom to go with the flow and be incorporated into Shen Li's group.
Then, he thought about himself. He had never wanted to be the emperor. Now that his father had passed away and Dongsheng was in chaos, where should he go? Was he really going to be a minister to Li'er?
He subconsciously clenched his fists, and an indescribable feeling of unwillingness surged in his heart. This emotion came so suddenly that even he himself was somewhat caught off guard.
Luo Lingchen fell into deep thought. He knew very well that Shen Li's mission was arduous, and how could he stay by her side and lend a helping hand in this turbulent situation?
Xiaoli blinked his bright eyes, looked at this and that, and seemed to feel the tension and excitement in the air.
A storm that will change the world is quietly brewing with them as the center.
Chu Fengmian looked around at everyone and spoke again. His voice was neither hurried nor slow, but it was filled with an unquestionable certainty: "Originally, Shen Li was just an ordinary little girl. However, fate played tricks on her. Due to various coincidences, the heavens, the earth, and the stars underwent earth-shaking changes."
He paused slightly, his eyes like torches falling on Shen Li, and then he said: "According to my calculations from peeping into the secrets of heaven, the spiritual pets in Shen Li's hands were all transformed by her hands, like the little koi and the white dragon. Everything shows that she is a person with great luck." As he spoke, he raised his hand and gently pointed at Shen Li's wrist.
"Dragon? Where is the dragon?" Nangong Qi was so shocked when he heard it that his eyes widened. Like a frightened rabbit, he suddenly stood up and looked around, trying to find any trace of the dragon.
Chu Fengmian had made up his mind and was determined to convince everyone present to fully support Shen Li in ascending the throne of the empress, and he must make them clearly aware of the powerful assets that Shen Li possessed.
So, he turned to look at Shen Li, his tone gentle but with a certain degree of urgency: "Shen Li, come here, this Pavilion Master will awaken this dragon for you now."
Shen Li hesitated a little and subconsciously looked at Luo Lingchen and Su Ran. Seeing them looking at her in astonishment, she slowly stood up and walked to sit next to Chu Fengmian.
Chu Fengmian took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and quickly formed seals with his hands. Rays of light overflowed from his fingertips and were accurately injected into several acupuncture points on Shen Li's body.
In a place invisible to the naked eye, the dragon's inner core in Shen Li's body was slowly swimming upwards as if being pulled by a mysterious force.
Everyone in the room held their breath and stared at them intently.
I saw dense beads of sweat gradually oozing out of Chu Fengmian's forehead. Shen Li also closed her eyes, frowned slightly, and slowly opened her mouth. A round bead emitting soft light slowly came out of her mouth, and then quickly sank into her wrist like lightning.
At this moment, the white jade bracelet on Shen Li's wrist suddenly moved. Bai Fan blinked his smart eyes and asked, "Ali, have you recovered? Where are we now?"
Nangong Qi turned pale when he heard the man's voice coming from Shen Li's wrist. He instinctively hugged the neck of Su Ran, who was sitting next to him, and shouted at the top of his voice, "What is that thing on A'li's wrist? Is this a dragon?"
Hearing the sound, Bai Fan looked around curiously. Then he realized something was wrong and stuck out his tongue playfully, saying in frustration, "It's over! I'm exposed!"
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was tense and weird, and everyone's eyes fell on Shen Li's wrist, as if the key to solving all the mysteries was hidden there.
After going through all this, Shen Li slowly opened her eyes, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.
