"If that's really the case, it would be an injustice if this country didn't perish." Not far away, a woman dressed in black sneered.

"The more they act like this, the easier it is for us to make our move. Are you all ready?" A servant in a blue cloth robe and a small hat that covered half of his face smiled slightly and sprinkled the perfume powder on the woman twice more.

"Alright, that's enough! Do you want to make me stink?" The woman seemed relaxed when she saw him, and her tone became more playful.

"How could that be? This is made with the finest spices."

"Too much of anything is bad; too much fragrance can make you nauseous." The woman rolled her eyes, reciting some very famous principle. Another woman next to her, who had been keeping her head down, finally reacted: "Too much of anything is bad? What a profound principle."

His accent was clear and handsome, clearly that of a man, yet with this attire, he possessed a certain charm.

The man and woman found it amusing: "Finally, there's a reaction! How can anything important be accomplished if you're so nervous?"

The man understood they were trying to distract him so he wouldn't appear nervous. One watched the opera performance, the other offered sarcastic remarks, their banter fraught with danger yet showing no sign of tension. He admired them. He thought to himself, "The War God of Beichen truly lives up to his name. But who is this woman? How can she be on par with the War God?"

Suddenly, Lin Feng asked again, "Why is it that you call someone the Emperor where you're from, but here you call them the King?"

"The title of Emperor can only be used by the two great powers, Beichen and Tiancheng. If other small countries use it, it is disrespectful to Beichen and Tiancheng, and we can send troops to punish them at any time." Beichen Tian knew that he was not familiar with Yin Sang's things, so he explained. Shen Mufeng, who was standing next to him, was even more puzzled. Where did this woman come from? How could she not know something that everyone on the Yin Sang continent knew?

Lin Feng's ability to sneak into the banquet was entirely due to his unparalleled beauty. After the soldier returned that day, many people spread rumors that they had seen a stunning beauty. News is hard to keep secret, and within an afternoon, everyone knew that there was a stunning beauty on the newly docked merchant ship.

Since they were merchants, they had a reason to invite them to the banquet. If Lin Feng was unwilling, they couldn't force him. When Lin Feng saw them arrive, he first declined and pondered for a while, but didn't send them away. At this moment, someone notified Mo Shouhu. He came immediately, took the credit for the others' hard work, and gave Lin Feng and the others some treasures.

Seeing money, Lin Feng hesitated before agreeing, and intentionally or unintentionally revealed to Mo Shouhu that he was skilled in dancing.

Mo Shouhu originally wanted to curry favor with the Crown Prince, so how could he let this opportunity pass? He immediately hired her at a high price, which made Shen Mufeng and the others behind him curse him for being despicable and shameless!

Not only did they achieve their goal, but they also tried to extort money from me!

Bei Chentian agreed, laughing and saying, "Since they've come to us, why should we refuse their kindness?"

In this way, the group easily infiltrated the palace.

Shen Muyue had grown tired of the previous performance of the dancers' song and dance. He waved for them to leave, took a sip of wine, and sighed, "Why are they all just ordinary women? Are there no more peerless beauties in this world?"

Seeing his chance, Mo Shouhu offered a fawning smile: "Of course there is. I knew long ago that Your Majesty would love beauties. By chance, I saw an unparalleled beauty outside. If Your Majesty is willing, I will call her in right away." This man was very cunning and knew that Lin Feng's appearance was stunning enough, so he wanted her to make her appearance last, which could be considered as doing his best.

The crown prince's eyes flashed, and he laughed, "Then hurry up and let her in!"

Mo Shouhu didn't dare to keep them in suspense. He clapped his hands three times as a signal. Lin Feng smiled slightly when he heard him clap his hands. His black veil fluttered, and he led two people whose faces were half-covered, along with a group of maids who were far away, into the room.

With an arrogant and noble demeanor, and a beautiful face that exudes a bewitching charm, this face, which appeared pure on Lan Feng, was portrayed by Lin Feng as if she were a demoness, a femme fatale who could bring ruin to a country! She looked around, and her originally cold face suddenly revealed an extremely seductive smile, with a hint of evil in the corners of her mouth.

Silence. The surroundings were eerily quiet, and all eyes were fixed on the woman in the black veil.

The crown prince stared at her, his eyes wide with disbelief. The ministers were speechless with astonishment, and Mo Shouhu, who had never seen her dressed in such finery before, gaped wide-eyed.

Shen Mufeng, standing behind her, was shocked. He knew that this was all an act by the woman! It was as if she had a layer of skin stuck to her face, able to pretend to be whatever she wanted, and no one knew what her true nature was!

A demon! An absolute witch! He swore he had never seen a woman like this in his entire life.

Breathtaking beauty, yet the most deceptive poison! Everything is brewing a conspiracy!

That's terrifying!

Bei Chentian's eyes were fixed on her through her hair. At this moment, he felt once again that this woman was different from ordinary women! Perhaps he should have killed Lin Feng from the beginning to eliminate future troubles! However, everything about Lin Feng made him feel like he had found a companion, whether it was her rebellious thoughts or her vicious and insidious methods.

Having observed her for so long, Bei Chentian could sense that with Lin Feng's help, conquering the world would be much easier for him! And now, he was actually shocked by her smile. Could this be what the old emperor, his grandfather, had described as the feeling of seeing a true beauty?

Her performance left the others with mixed feelings, but Lin Feng was unaware of them.

"Greetings, New King!" Lin Feng spoke only after seeing that the people around her were already quite astonished by him, and gave a graceful bow. She disliked the etiquette of kneeling, and even Bei Chentian had never made her kneel once. Moreover, in front of people, as long as she slightly bent her body, those people would lose their souls. Not everyone was as averse to beauty as Bei Chentian and Lei Ran.

In fact, everyone wants a beautiful woman, but what makes those two more intelligent than ordinary people is that they can rationally view the relationship between beauty and power, and they put power first.

"Please rise, young lady!" The prince exclaimed with delight, "Truly a peerless beauty! Good, good, good..." He said "good" three times in a row, seemingly at a loss for words.

Lin Feng smiled slightly and said, "Actually, I think that the word 'good' is not enough to describe the true beauty of a woman."

"Oh? Then, what do you think, young lady?" Not only the Crown Prince, but even Bei Chentian was curious about what she wanted to say.

Lin Feng smiled again, looked at the singing girls standing on either side, and took a step back: "Would you mind listening to this humble woman sing and dance?"

"sure!"

The long black sleeves fluttered gently. Lin Feng raised his head, showing no fear whatsoever, and recited aloud:

There is a beautiful woman in the north.

Unparalleled and independent.

One glance could topple a city.

A second glance could topple a nation.

How could one not know the power of a beauty to topple a city or a nation?

Such a beauty is hard to find again!

To the music, they danced with long sleeves, their movements not exactly standard, but who would care? The prince couldn't help but sniff: "It smells so good."

After turning around, Lin Feng stopped and smiled, "Such a beauty can only be described as stunningly beautiful."

Everyone was silent. After a long while, a man who looked like a civil official spoke up.

"Isn't this 'beauty that could topple kingdoms' a bit of an exaggeration? If it's really like that, wouldn't it be terrifying?"

Lin Feng said, "Is it not to be feared? Or is it to be cherished? Sir, you flatter me. This is just a saying and not the truth."
