Upon hearing Beifeng's half-threatening, half-teasing words, Li Huowang glanced at him and turned his head to Zhuge Yuan beside him. "Brother Zhuge, could you please use that artifact to prevent this person from lying?"
He had realized that before he cultivated the so-called cultivation method, Zhuge Yuan's old almanac, which could prohibit everything, was the true nemesis of the Taoist sects that deceive beings.
As long as he was present, the tricks played by the Taoist sects would be completely useless.
"The effect of the almanac hasn't worn off yet, so feel free to ask. He can't lie now," Zhuge Yuan said.
Hearing this, Li Huowang squatted down, staring into the other person's eyes with a playful look. "What? Still unwilling to speak? Should I ask Brother Zhuge to write another taboo against silence?"
"I'm not a three-year-old child, no need to scare me. They entered the city, all three Beifengs entered the city."
"Don't ignore the details! Which city did they enter?"
"Well, which city could it be? The capital, of course."
"Where are they now?" Li Huowang pressed further.
"When we separated yesterday noon, it was at Dongchenghuang. As for where they are now, I don't know."
"Why did your Taoist sect come to the capital at this time? This place is the headquarters of the Monitoring Bureau. Aren't you afraid of being wiped out?"
"Haha, afraid? The Taoist sects deceive beings, deceive the heavens, deceive the earth, and deceive themselves. We've never been afraid of anyone. We didn't come before because we thought this place was boring."
"Don't change the subject, tell me quickly, what is your purpose for coming to the capital?" Li Huowang's tone became more intense.

Looking at Li Huowang's completely changed face, Beifeng's expression became particularly disdainful. He said lightly, "Dice Boss asked us to come. He said the emperor of Daliang is up to something behind the scenes and asked us to come and take a look."
"As for what the emperor of Daliang is doing, hehehe, you should know better than us, right? I just arrived, so I might not know as much as you do."
Emperor of Daliang? Li Huowang thought of the task to find the heart's impurity, the warship covered in scars on the sea, and the former emperor who was beheaded at the crossroads.
He had long known that the entire Daliang Kingdom was restless, as if something was happening in secret. Now, no matter what the emperor of Daliang wanted to do, the Taoist sects must have heard the wind and joined in.
"Besides the three Beifengs from the Taoist sects, are there any other people?" Li Huowang patiently continued to question.
Beifeng had no resistance at all and listed them one by one. "In our group, there are three Eight Tiaos, two Nine Tiaos, four Beifengs, and... two Reds, hehehe."
When he mentioned Red, Beifeng's face carried a strange smile as he stared straight at Li Huowang.
With a slap, Li Huowang directly slapped him in the face. "Don't play these tricks! The other Taoist sects have already used them on me, and they are useless!"
After Li Huowang had asked everything without any useful value, he stood up.
"Li Xiong, finished questioning? You don't need this person anymore?" Zhuge Yuan approached Li Huowang with a folding fan and asked.
Seeing Li Huowang nod slightly while pondering, Zhuge Yuan picked up the canvas in his hand and shook it vigorously in the air. The impure body of Beifeng appeared in the sky.
The long scroll revolved around Beifeng's head a few times, and the expression on his face became confused and doubtful. The memories of Daliang in his mind were rapidly disappearing.
At the same time, his facial features and age were changing. He, who should have been tall, gradually shrank back and eventually turned into an old lady with bound feet.
Trembling, the old lady stood up from the ground, completely forgetting what had happened before. She looked anxiously at the unfamiliar people in front of her and hurriedly waved her hand as she ran towards the door.
"What is this? Old man, come quickly!"
"Hey hey hey, old lady, slow down, no one wants to eat you." Zhuge Yuan supported her and walked towards the gate of Liang Mansion.
When he returned after doing a good deed, Zhuge Yuan saw Li Huowang still frowning in the same place. Curiously, he asked, "Li Xiong, what's wrong? Did what Beifeng said have any use to you?"
Li Huowang nodded and said, "It's useful, but I can't fully trust it. I know the Taoist sects, even if they speak the truth, they can still deceive people."
"What he just said must be true, but I suspect that there are deliberate omissions in some details, or some truths are spoken using misleading phrases."
After thinking for a while, Li Huowang turned his head and glanced at the people from Daqi inside the house. He lowered his voice and said to Zhuge Yuan, "Brother Zhuge, please understand, I have something to do and need to leave for a while."
Seemingly afraid that Zhuge Yuan would misunderstand, Li Huowang continued, "I'm not going back on my word, but this matter is extremely important. I will definitely come back to help you after I finish."
"It's alright, it's alright." Zhuge Yuan appeared exceptionally open-minded. "Since you know that Beifeng is now in Youdu, what are your plans for the next step?"
"This time, the entire Taoist sects might all come. I can't fight them alone, so I have come up with a plan. Whether it works or not, I plan to give it a try first."
Zhuge Yuan nodded. "Okay, do your thing. If you encounter any difficulties, remember to come find me."
Hearing this, Li Huowang felt warm in his heart. Zhuge Yuan was one of the few good people in this chaotic world.
"Alright." He solemnly bowed to Zhuge Yuan and turned to rush towards the dark outside of Liang Mansion.
Li Huowang didn't go anywhere else but kept switching positions on the roof tiles, heading straight to the southwest.
Such a high-profile action immediately attracted some attention, but when Li Huowang raised his waist badge that belonged to him, no one came forward to stop him.
Within the time it took for two incense sticks to burn, he finally arrived at the Monitoring Bureau. At this moment, the person guarding the gate was not the Mo family member carrying a bird on his shoulder, but a thin woman with a black talisman stuck to her forehead and wearing a hemp skirt.The woman, with her dark skin, seemed to have all her orifices blocked by something akin to yellow mud. Her presence in the empty room was particularly eerie.
"Let me in quickly. It's urgent!" Li Huowang spoke hastily to the strange woman.
The woman remained motionless, and with a "whoosh" sound, a secret door appeared on the wall.
Li Huowang rushed in, searching for the room from his previous memory.
When he returned to the hall filled with folding screens, he found that many people were missing, with only a few flickering candlelights in the corners of the screens.
Li Huowang didn't care about anything else. He walked straight through the folding screens and came to the steward he had met once before, pretending to be very anxious, he said, "Brother Nangong, something big has happened! The entire Taoist sects that deceive beings are rushing to the capital!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
