Balala the Magic Fairy

As the fireworks faded, a dark shadow quietly sneaked into the cold palace. It was Yan Lili.

"Empress, the situation is urgent. The Emperor, under the instigation of Li Yingying, Zhao Yingying, and Concubine Zhen, has decided to do to you..."

There was a slight tremor in Yan Lili's voice, and she didn't dare to continue.

Ruyi's face remained calm, there was no fear in her eyes, only a hint of sadness.

"Lipin, I have long expected this day to come." Ruyi's voice was gentle but firm, "But I will not sit and wait for death. I must leave here with a clear conscience."

Yan Lili nodded.

"My lady, I am ready. We will leave Zhou tonight and look for evidence that can prove your innocence."

Ruyi sighed softly.

"Lipin, I am moved by your loyalty and courage. But we must be careful and not let the emperor and others discover our whereabouts."

Yan Lili bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, I understand. Please rest assured that I will protect you."

In the dead of night, Ruyi and Yan Lili quietly left the cold palace under the cover of darkness, avoided the palace guards, and came to the palace wall.

"Your Majesty, I have arranged everything. Let's leave from here." Yan Lili pointed to a hidden palace wall where a ladder had been prepared long ago.

Ruyi nodded.

"Lipin, you did a great job. Let's leave now and find the truth."

The two carefully climbed over the palace wall and finally escaped from the magnificent but conspiracy-filled Zhou Palace.

Ruyi and Yan Lili settled down temporarily in a dense forest outside the city.

"Empress, what should we do now?" Yan Lili's voice was filled with worry.

Ruyi took a deep breath, and there was a hint of determination in her voice.

"Lipin, we must first find evidence that can prove my innocence. Then, we must find the power that can help us expose the conspiracy of Li Yingying, Zhao Yingying, and Zhenfei."

Yan Lili nodded.

"My queen, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will stay by your side until you regain your innocence and return to the palace."

Ruyi patted Yan Lili's hand gently, with a hint of warmth in her eyes.

"Lipin, with you here, I believe we can overcome this difficult time and make the truth known to the world."

The two took a short rest in the dense forest and then began their difficult journey to find the truth.

They traveled through mountains and rivers and experienced many hardships, and finally found an old minister who had once received favor from Ruyi in a remote mountain village.

When Jia She learned of Ruyi's experience, he was filled with indignation and decided to help Ruyi clear her grievances.

"Empress, I will always remember your kindness in the past. Now that you are in trouble, I will do my best to help you." Jia She's voice was firm and powerful.

A hint of gratitude flashed in Ruyi's eyes.

"Master Jia, I am moved by your loyalty. With your help, I believe we will be able to find evidence and expose the true face of those treacherous people."

With the help of Jia She, Ruyi and Yan Lili began to collect evidence.

At the same time, he contacted those ministers who were still loyal to Zhou Ninghai, preparing to expose the conspiracy of Li Yingying, Zhao Yingying and Zhenfei in one fell swoop.

After some effort, they finally found the key evidence.

"Your Majesty, we finally found evidence that can prove your innocence." There was a hint of excitement in Yan Lili's voice.

A smile appeared on Ruyi's face and her eyes were full of hope.

"Princess Li, let's go back now and present the truth to the emperor and the people of the world, so that those treacherous people will receive the punishment they deserve."

So, Ruyi and Yan Lili set out on the journey back to Zhou Kingdom with the evidence.

On the way back to Zhou, Ruyi and Yan Lili were careful to avoid all possible dangers.

However, just as they were about to reach the palace, a group of men in black suddenly attacked from the darkness, their target directly at Ruyi.

"Empress!" Yan Lili shouted, drew her sword and started fighting fiercely with the man in black.

Ruyi used the objects around her to defend herself while looking for an opportunity to escape.

However, the men in black seemed to be prepared. Their attacks became more and more fierce, and Yan Lili gradually lost her strength.

Just then, Jia She and Jin Niang arrived with a group of loyal guards, and they engaged in a fierce battle with the men in black.

"Empress, hurry up!" Jia She shouted loudly while fighting with the enemy.

Ruyi knew that she could not stay here and she had to bring the evidence to the emperor.

Under the cover of Jia She and Jin Niang, Ruyi and Yan Lili finally broke through the siege, but they also paid a heavy price.

While protecting Ruyi, Jia She was injured by the hidden weapon of the man in black, and in order to protect Ruyi, Jin Niang was stabbed in the chest by the sword of the man in black.

"Lord Jia!" Ruyi cried out in grief, her eyes filled with tears. Jia She used up his last bit of strength and stretched out his hand to Ruyi.

"Your Majesty...you...you must...stay alive..." Jia She's voice became weaker and weaker, and finally he closed his eyes.

"Jinniang!" Ruyi turned around and hugged Jinniang who was lying in a pool of blood. Her heart was broken.

There was a slight smile on Jinniang's face and her voice was weak but firm.

"My Lady... it is my honor... to be able to serve you..."

Ruyi hugged Jinniang tightly, her heart filled with grief and anger.

She knew that all this was a conspiracy of Li Da Ying, Zhao Da Ying and Concubine Zhen, and she had to avenge Jia She and Jin Niang.

With the help of Yan Lili, Ruyi finally returned to the palace with the evidence.

She went directly to Zhou Ninghai's bedroom and laid all the evidence before the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I'm back." Ruyi's voice was calm and firm, with tears glistening in her eyes.

Zhou Ninghai looked at Ruyi, his heart filled with shock and guilt.

When he saw the evidence in Ruyi's hands and heard her talk about the sacrifices of Jia She and Jin Niang, his heart was filled with anger.

"Ruyi, I was wrong." Zhou Ninghai's voice trembled a little, "I was deceived by the traitor and made you suffer so much."

Ruyi shook her head gently, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes: "Your Majesty, you are the ruler of a country, and it is inevitable that you will be disturbed. Ruyi has never blamed Your Majesty."

Zhou Ninghai held Ruyi's hand tightly, his voice firm: "Ruyi, I will never let you suffer any grievances again."

Ruyi smiled slightly, with a hint of warmth in her eyes: "Your Majesty, Ruyi believes in you."

/

At this moment, Zhou Ninghai suddenly hit Ruyi.

A trace of disbelief flashed across Ruyi's eyes, and her body, like a kite with a broken string, hit the pillar of the bedroom heavily and fell to the ground.

Blood flowed from her mouth, staining her light blue dress red.

"Your Majesty, why are you doing this?" Ruyi's voice was weak, her eyes full of confusion and pain.

Zhou Ninghai's face was gloomy, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

His voice was cold and low: "Ruyi, you have gone too far. I have given you a chance, but you have repeatedly challenged my bottom line."

Ruyi struggled to stand up, but her injuries were too severe and she could only lean weakly against the pillar.

She shook her head slightly, with a tremor in her voice.

"Your Majesty, I have never thought of challenging your bottom line. Everything I have done is for the Zhou Kingdom and for Your Majesty."

Seeing this, Yan Lili immediately rushed forward and knelt beside Ruyi with tears in her eyes.

"Empress, how are you? It's all my fault for not being able to protect you."

Ruyi waved her hand gently, indicating that Yan Lili need not worry.

She turned her gaze to Zhou Ninghai, with a hint of firmness in her voice.

"Your Majesty, I have a clear conscience. If Your Majesty believes that I am guilty, I am willing to accept any punishment."

Zhou Ninghai's brows were furrowed, and there was a hint of anger in his voice.

"Ruyi, you still refuse to admit your mistakes? I am so disappointed in you."

There was a flash of sadness in Ruyi's eyes, and her voice was choked with sobs.

"Your Majesty, I have never had any thoughts of betraying you. If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, I have nothing to say."

At this time, an old minister hurried into the bedroom with a trace of anxiety on his face.

"Your Majesty, Queen, there is urgent news outside the palace!"

Zhou Ninghai's face darkened, and he turned to the old minister: "What's the urgent news?"

The old minister's voice trembled: "Your Majesty, the border is in danger, the enemy is invading on a large scale, the situation is critical!"

Zhou Ninghai's face changed and he stood up immediately.

"Immediately call together all the civil and military officials to discuss countermeasures!"

/

Yan Lili and Ruyi were about to flee from the Zhou Palace, but were intercepted by Li Da Ying and Zhao Da Ying halfway.

Li agreed to attack Ruyi without saying anything.

Ruyi was injured by Zhao Da Ying, while Yan Lili stepped forward and prepared to fight against Li Da Ying and Zhao Da Ying.

"Li Da Ying, Zhao Da Ying, you actually dared to do such a treasonous thing in the palace. Today I will eliminate this harm for the Zhou Kingdom!"

Yan Lili's voice echoed all around, and her figure was surrounded by three dazzling lotus phantoms, emitting a powerful pressure.

During the period of time since she came to Zhou Kingdom, she has used the resources here to practice hard, and has now successfully cultivated from the Second Lotus Immortal King to the Third Lotus Immortal King.

Li Da Ying's face darkened. He didn't expect Yan Lili to dare to challenge him in front of the emperor.

"Yan Lili, you are just a small Three Lotus Immortal King, how dare you act so rude in front of me?" Li Da Ying sneered.

Two black lotuses began to emerge around his body, representing his strength as the Second Lotus Immortal King.

Zhao Da Ying chuckled, her figure floating in the bedroom like a ghost, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

"Yan Lili, do you really think you can defeat us?"

There was a hint of temptation in Zhao's voice, and two black lotuses began to appear on her body.

Yan Lili knew that this battle concerned the future of Zhou State, and she had to give it her all.

She took a deep breath, and the three lotus flowers in her body began to rotate slowly, releasing dazzling light.

"The Lord of Heaven!" Yan Lili called out softly.

The Tianyu Jianzun in her hand made a crisp sound, and the entire magic weapon was surrounded by a faint chaotic aura.

"When chaos began, all things returned to their origin!" Yan Lili's voice echoed in the bedroom.

Her Tianyu Jianzun emitted a huge beam of light, heading straight towards Li Da Ying and Zhao Da Ying.

Li Da Ying and Zhao Da Ying did not dare to be careless, they immediately activated their magic weapons.

Two black lotuses rotated in the air, forming a black light curtain, trying to resist Yan Lili's attack.

However, Yan Lili's power was far beyond their imagination.

Her attack was like a storm, constantly attacking the defenses of Li Da Ying and Zhao Da Ying.

In a fierce attack, the black light curtain of Li Da Ying and Zhao Da Ying was finally broken.

Their bodies flew backwards under the huge impact and fell heavily on the wall of the bedroom.
