"Each doppelganger wears official robes, indicating an extreme desire for power. How could it be as simple as just pretending?" Since I was leading the way, Wuyue didn’t need to exert any effort, leisurely remarked.

Wuyue’s words enlightened me, and I realized, "With what you said, the official sitting in the Prefectural Government Office is most likely Piao Changji’s true form!"

Piao Changji enjoys being an official, sending a doppelganger would be boring, wouldn’t it?

It must be his true form staying in the painting, enjoying the pleasure of being a just and honorable magistrate.

"How about we just rush in and cut him down now?" Wuyue smiled slightly, curling her long smooth hair with her long fingers.

At that moment, it was truly hard to distinguish gender.

I briefly considered it and decided, "I don’t want to act rashly, let’s wait and see what happens."

"Alright, I’ll follow you, whatever you say goes." Wuyue said with a light smile.

The ancient long streets were particularly well-planned, a straight walk would lead you to the city gate.

Wuyue and I exited the city gate, and immediately, there were far fewer people around us.

Several different villages were on the outskirts, all filled with people.

The villages were nestled against several connected large mountains, the terrain was particularly steep, belonging to towering mountains and ridges.

I led Wuyue up the mountain, overlooking the world in the painting.

Meanwhile, I used the fabric I had to make clothes, in the style matching the world in the painting.

"Luckily we took a look from the mountain, this world is really small, with a radius of less than a hundred miles." Wuyue coiled her Snake Tail on the mountaintop, gazing through the flowing clouds.

Compared to being used to doing the Life and Death Embroidery, making ordinary clothes took me less than ten minutes.

I casually made a robe with a kingfisher heralding spring pattern and wore it, "Well, this city is surrounded by mountains, at the edge of the mountains, there will be white fog, trapping the people inside forever in this world."

Saying that, I took off the White Jade Hairpin from my head, letting my long hair fall without support.

I swiftly changed the Taoist nun’s hairstyle to a new one, more like the people here.

Then I helped Wuyue make clothes, an all-black outfit painted with silver bamboo patterns.

"If you beg me, I’ll tell you Chen Xiaoli’s location." Without needing my prompt, Wuyue took off her long dress and donned the bamboo-patterned clothes.

In an instant, her appearance changed from a fairy-like demeanor to an elegant scholar’s aura. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Her graceful style had the charm of Wei and Jin dynasty scholars, reminiscent of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove.

I said, "If I didn’t know where Xiao Li was, I really would have begged you."

"Boring." Wuyue lost her grip over me, messily tousling her long hair, flicking her sleeves.

I ignored him and went straight down the mountain to a farmhouse, knocking on the door.

A forty-year-old middle-aged woman opened the door, looking me up and down in surprise, "Miss, with such splendid attire, why do you come knocking on a poor family’s door like mine?"

"I’m here to find my friend, did you pick up a girl in White Gauze at the market?" I asked the farmwife with a smile.

The farmwife became wary, "Nothing of the sort, I haven’t...haven’t taken in any girl."

"Xiao Li, Xiao Li, it’s me, Su Wan! Are you in this house? I saw you drying clothes in the yard, you haven’t been kidnapped, have you?" Seeing the farmwife not letting me meet Xiao Li, I feared she might have taken Xiao Li as a child bride for her son or something.

I poked my head into the farmhouse, loudly calling out Xiao Li’s name.

Suddenly, a gray figure appeared.

A girl in her early thirties appeared, bearing a seventy or eighty percent resemblance to Xiao Li, with dark wheat-colored skin as well.

Seeing me, she rushed towards me, throwing herself into my arms, sobbing, "Su Wan, why did you only come now? I’ve been here for ten years, worrying about being discovered by the bastard spirit of an official, sob~"
