After sending out the designated red packets, Ding Yun was about to go to sleep. However, before she could close the red packet group, she received dozens of red packet notifications in quick succession.
They were all designated red packets sent to her.
Looking at the group nickname of the sender.
It was a strange name – Empress of the Dark Night.
[Regent Empress]:?
[Regent Empress]: That's not right, why did my name change? So, do group nicknames change?
[Regent Empress]: Then who is Empress of the Dark Night?
[Empress of the Dark Night]: Sister, it's me, Empress of the Cold Palace. Actually, my initial group name was Unfavored Empress, but due to flaws in the Charm Bewitchment Technique, I was stripped of my phoenix seal and banished to the cold palace, hence I became Empress of the Cold Palace.
Fortunately, all the officials believed I was innocent and could not be deposed.
This is why I wasn't demoted to a deposed empress of the cold palace.
As for why I am now Empress of the Dark Night?
I think it's probably related to what I've been doing recently. Ever since I received the red packet you sent me, I followed the description of the Charm Bewitchment Nymph and continuously infused spiritual energy into the Charm Bewitchment Technique. Before long, I successfully broke through the limitations of the Charm Bewitchment Nymph.
And mastered a more potent Charm Bewitchment Technique.
I can easily bewitch dozens or hundreds of people.
And this is without any restrictions, allowing the bewitched to obey orders like puppets, even to the point of committing suicide without the slightest hesitation.
Leveraging this special ability, I quickly gained control of the people in the cold palace, as well as all the eunuchs and palace maids from the cold palace to the dog emperor's sleeping quarters. I not only successfully left the cold palace but also entered his sleeping chambers and gained control of him.
Now, on the surface, I am merely the Empress.
For some unknown reason, I was forgiven by the Emperor, regained my phoenix seal, and became the unfavored empress in charge of the inner palace.
But in reality, the dog emperor is also under my control.
Any disobedient eunuchs, palace maids, or even concubines are all under my control. Fortunately, this Charm Bewitchment Technique only makes them obedient and doesn't affect their intelligence, otherwise, with all these court affairs,
I really wouldn't know what to do.
Perhaps because I've reached this point.
My group nickname has become Empress of the Dark Night. Although on the surface I am just an empress, in reality, I have secretly become the female emperor who has already grasped the entire country.
The reason I was able to turn things around is all thanks to you.
These red packets are a small token of my gratitude.
[Poetic Tranquility]: It's only been a few days and you've already turned things around and become the master. That's too incredible.
[Empress Ci An]: Congratulations, congratulations. Congratulations to Sister Miaoling for taking another step forward and becoming the Regent Empress. I'm sure in no time you'll be able to proclaim yourself emperor like me.
Please, the rest of you, try to work harder, alright?
We already have a fairy, an empress, a regent empress, and a de facto empress in the group. Can the rest of you show some spirit of striving for progress? After being in the group for several years and not even becoming an empress, aren't you holding us back?
For example, Charm Bewitchment Nymph.
If I remember correctly, you've been in the palace for almost ten years, how are you still just a Nymph? Your name hasn't changed at all. You're supposed to be the progenitor of playing with Charm Bewitchment Techniques, why are you so lackluster? Work harder!
[Charm Bewitchment Nymph]: Don't think everyone is like you with such great ambitions. Besides, do you think I don't want to? It's just that I can't. While the Charm Bewitchment Techniques in the group do originate from me, this skill relies too heavily on spiritual energy, and my skill simply cannot affect the Emperor.
God knows what the situation is with the Empress of the Cold Palace.
I didn't even know my skill could break through the protection of dragon aura and directly affect the Human Emperor. It's outrageous.
[Step by Step Golden Lotus]: I do have a guess.
If I'm not mistaken, all group members with special skills or special bloodlines are in extraordinary worlds. At the very least, they are definitely not worlds of the Age of Dharma Decline with ordinary mortals. There must be some peculiar aspects, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to possess skills.
When the world had not yet fallen into the Age of Dharma Decline.
The Human Emperor did have the protection of dragon aura, but if he entered the Age of Dharma Decline, then naturally there would be nothing.
When Empress of the Dark Night first joined the group, she had no skills herself. Furthermore, her Charm Bewitchment Technique could indeed affect the Emperor. Therefore, it's likely that her world is an Age of Dharma Decline world. Now, she might be the only one in that world with special abilities, and no one can possibly restrain her.
She can do whatever she wants.
I must say, her luck is truly good.
...
As Ding Yun continuously received red packets, she soon accumulated a pile of gold, silver, jewels, antiques, and rare treasures from other worlds. The people in the group quickly started chatting.
Some were envious, some were jealous.
And some were discussing the differences between worlds.
Everything seemed normal.
However, when Ding Yun opened what must have been the umpteenth red packet, what appeared before her was no longer gold, silver, jewels, and antiques, but a green streak of qi. As soon as that gaseous substance appeared, it lunged towards Ding Yun.
Even though Ding Yun had achieved success in her martial arts cultivation by then.
She ultimately failed to successfully evade the attack of this green gaseous substance. In the next second, she was struck by it.
Then she knew who was behind it.
So, as the green gaseous substance hit her, a demonic soul like a nine-tailed fox instantly appeared in Ding Yun's sea of consciousness. At the same time, that demonic soul immediately launched a frantic attack on her, seemingly wanting to take her place.
But, if this nine-tailed fox demon soul were specifically targeting Ding Yun's current body, Ding Yun might really be powerless. After all, this body of hers is indeed very weak.
It definitely couldn't withstand the impact and destruction of a demon.
But it directly rushed into Ding Yun's sea of consciousness.
Wanting to devour her soul and possess her body.
Isn't that like a birthday star eating poison, courting death?
Her soul attacks couldn't cause much impact on Ding Yun at all. So, after the nine-tailed fox demon thought that it was like a lion preying on a rabbit and had exerted all its strength in a series of attacks, when it believed it would surely succeed, Ding Yun's soul.
Appeared before it unharmed.
"I remember saying in the group that my skill is supreme mental power. You clearly know how powerful my mental power is, why are you so confident that a mere wisp of a divine sense could destroy me? Where does that confidence come from?"
Considering that villains die from talking too much, Ding Yun only grumbled a little and stopped speaking.
Instead, she directly used her mental power to simulate a grinding stone.
In a short while, she completely ground that wisp of divine sense of the nine-tailed fox demon into the purest mental energy.
Then she immediately entered the group and quickly recounted what had just happened in broad strokes, warning others in the group to be careful not to be ambushed again. Besides this, Ding Yun also began to carefully examine every corner of the group, looking for a button to report or kick someone.
With the hidden danger of the nine-tailed fox demon in the group.
She felt a sense of unease.
