Chapter 77 The Beauty Kidnapped by the Queen 18

You have no idea how much I love you.

"What nonsense am I spouting? National Preceptor Jiang should be staying in the Ninth Heaven, but he is still reluctant to leave the mortal world. This is a futile act. I was just trying to persuade him with kind words."

Faced with Wanqi Yanjing's questioning, Jiang Xian said calmly, "If the Empress is someone who has recognized her ancestors, she should call me 'Great-Grandmother.' Is this how you speak to me? It seems that Sang Yan's descendants are not very well-mannered."

"You..." Wan Qiyan choked for a moment, then shamelessly said, "If that's the case, Great-Grandmother, you wouldn't want to see your beloved grandson lose his lover at such a young age, would you? You should stand up for me. Jiang Yiqing is a concubine whom I have prayed to heaven and earth and worshipped my ancestors for, so she can't be so easily dismissed."

"What concubine? Marry whoever you want, just don't bother me!" Jiang Yiqing shouted.

These words truly enraged Wanqi Yanjing, so he stopped trying to be docile, flapped his wings and attacked the two of them. Jiang Yiqing instantly felt enveloped by the heat wave, as if she were in a sea of ​​fire.

Jiang Xian took out a water-stabilizing bead. Jiang Yiqing and she were inside it, and the coolness was instantly restored. Except for bubbles when they spoke, they could still breathe normally inside the water-stabilizing bead.

"Empress, you should know best the nature of your ancestors. Your taking Yiqing as your concubine is nothing more than a momentary infatuation, just like Sangyan did to me back then. You will eventually have your own paths to walk, and you will abandon your lovers again, locking your feelings in the strange bone jade pendant. This will only add to your troubles. Why can't you let her go?" Jiang Xian asked.

"Since she placed the threads of affection within the Jade Pendant of Extraordinary Bones, isn't that a sign of deep-rooted love?" Wanqi Yanjing exclaimed, "National Preceptor Jiang, the Great Ancestor spent a thousand years with you in heaven. In the mortal realm, the world has long since changed, and the Qin Kingdom has been destroyed. Only because the Phoenix Flame could not be extinguished did she use the power of reincarnation to return to the Qin Kingdom and pass the throne to her successor. Is that wrong? Isn't a thousand years enough to prove her true feelings for you?!"

"..." Jiang Xian fell silent.

"..." Jiang Yiqing didn't know what to say. Wan Qiyanjing was obviously not a love-struck person. Even if he was acting desperately, it was probably just an act. In her opinion, a thousand years was a deep love, and abandonment could be forgiven. What else could she say?

"Jiang Yiqing, my love for you surpasses that of all the kings of Qin Kingdom. I promise you that I will only be with you in this life. Isn't that enough to prove my sincerity?!" Wanqi Yanjing looked at Jiang Yiqing again and shouted.

Her bewitching beauty was incredibly alluring. She wore a black robe with flame-engulfed patterns along the edges, making her even more stunning. Looking at her, Jiang Yiqing could recall their past intimacy, but now... she had no choice but to make her stance clear.

“I don’t care,” Jiang Yiqing said. “My master respects and loves me, my elder sister cherishes and pities me, I have many friends in the Di Kingdom, and I have received guidance from an immortal. In the future, when you all become immortals, you will be no less than you, Wanqi Yanjing. There is nothing about you that I want. Wanqi Yanjing, you go and seek your ruthless path. I naturally have my own path to immortality to uphold.”

Wan Qiyanjing, seemingly summoning power from nowhere, broke through the water sphere in an instant. She pulled Jiang Yiqing out and said fiercely in her ear, "What immortal path? Have you forgotten? You're my pet. Have you forgotten how much you craved me? Now you're all high and mighty, talking about seeking immortality. Jiang Yiqing, you're quite the actor."

"..." The moment Jiang Yiqing was touched, those lewd memories resurfaced in her mind. She trembled slightly, feeling a consciousness within her resisting her.

She's right. How can someone like you possibly seek immortality or attain enlightenment? You can't even sever your emotions and love. Your foundation is too shallow. Do you even deserve it?

"Being with her is also very happy. Life is only 30,000 days long, why not indulge in happiness? Even if you become an immortal, mortals will not know you exist. What's the point of being a damn immortal? Where can you find the joy of being in a warm bedchamber every day, making love like a lovebird?" A demonic voice quietly blew into her heart.

Jiang Xian was enraged. She never expected that Wan Qi Sang Yan's descendant would be such a shameless person, actually using demonic arts to attack her disciple right in front of her. She immediately formed a Illusionary Flower Maze Formation, which even a True Immortal of the Ninth Heaven could not easily escape. However, Wan Qi Sang Yan Jing had come prepared for this trip.

She wielded the Heavenly Illumination Sword, a treasure of the Qin Kingdom, which possessed the power to dispel illusions and reveal truth. With a single strike, she tore through the sky, and the illusion array dissipated layer by layer.

Jiang Xian then realized that she had studied her immortal techniques and had long anticipated a battle with her, for which she had not hesitated to use a divine artifact.

"If that's the case, then what about this move?" Jiang Xian had never used the Soul-Capturing Token before; it contained the sorrow of her hundreds of years of seclusion. Now, she took down the bamboo tube from her waist and played a tune.

The voice was mournful, filled with indignation towards Wanqi Sangyan, and directed at the Phoenix Lord of Qin Kingdom with a righteous intent akin to capturing a dragon and suppressing a phoenix. Wanqi Yan Jing, who possessed Wanqi Sangyan's bloodline, immediately felt the thunderous sound pierce his ears, his head throbbed, and his spiritual power was greatly restricted.

Wan Qiyan looked at Jiang Yiqing in her arms. She was in a coma due to her deep hypnosis, her whole body soaked, so alluring and beautiful. How could she possibly watch her virgin be taken away again and disappear from her sight? This obsession had long taken root in her heart, and even though Jiang Yiqing had been cleansed of her karmic ties, her brows furrowed involuntarily in her unconscious state.

"Grand Preceptor Jiang, you still don't understand us!" Wan Qiyan's demonic eyes turned bloodshot, as if burning with blood, and his body was engulfed in flames. The sound of the burning flames once drowned out the ethereal voice: "The phoenix is ​​a creature that will be reborn when forced to the brink of death. You and Jiang Yuxiu have ultimately miscalculated!"

Wan Qiyan Jing pushed the Phoenix Pill to its limit, further deepening his demonic transformation. Despite spitting out blood and his skin cracking inch by inch, he remained stubbornly deluded: "Jiang Yiqing, I'm taking her away!"

In an instant, the Phoenix Lord's will caused the birds of Langhuan Paradise to cry out and the earth to shake. Jiang Xian only paused for a moment, and Wan Qiyan seized the opportunity, forcibly breaking through the Soul-Capturing Order with Jiang Yiqing and disappearing without a trace.

*

Wanqi Yanjing originally intended to plant a demon in Jiang Yiqing's heart so that she could never leave him for the rest of her life, but at the same time, his immortal foundation would be destroyed.

She suppressed her inner temptation and gently tucked her hair behind her ear, saying tenderly, "You have no idea how much I love you."

But she couldn't give Jiang Yiqing another chance to escape, so she confiscated her three immortal books.

"Luo Li, is there any news about the vengeful spirit that escaped from the strange bone pendant?" Wan Qiyan asked.

She was forced to take the Phoenix Pill this time. If the evil spirits were to descend upon the world, chaos would ensue. Now, the evil spirits are afraid of her boundless magical power and dare not appear in the world. All that is needed is to capture them and send them back to her jade pendant for sealing.

"According to the Crown Princess's intelligence, Jiang Yuxiu has been ordered to go to the Northern Frontier."

"Then let's use this Yin Spirit Banner to stir up trouble in the northern frontier and lure the spirits there. For now, let's not let Jiang Yuxiu return to the capital, lest she come and ruin my plans again."

"..." Luo Li said, "Your subordinate obeys."

They did not quite agree with Wanqi Yanjing's actions. The Yin spirits of that year were sealed in the Yigu Langhua Pendant, while the remaining Yin spirits were sealed in the Yin Spirit Banner. If the Yin spirits and Yin spirits were to reunite, they could transform back into demons, which would also affect Wanqi Yanjing's current status as the Demon Lord.

Jiang Yiqing seemed to hear some sound, and even in her dream she couldn't sleep peacefully, her eyelashes fluttering as if she was about to wake up.

Wanqi Yanjing made a shushing gesture, indicating that they should leave.

When Jiang Yiqing opened her eyes, the surroundings were unbelievably quiet.

Her eyes finally cleared, and she saw Wan Qiyan Jing staring at her with a pair of demonic eyes, looking at her with great interest for who knows how long.

A chill ran down my spine.

Jiang Yiqing truly believed she had escaped the den of iniquity, but unexpectedly, she found herself back here.

Is this really fate?

She tried to use the system tools, but Wan Qiyanjing said, "It's no use, Jiang Yiqing. If you dare to use your sorcery in front of me again, I will immediately send someone to bring Jiang Yuxiu's corpse over for you to see."

"..." At first, Jiang Yiqing's eyes showed disbelief, then hatred after conviction, and finally helplessness and resignation. She said, "Wanqi Yanjing, I always thought you were a good person."

"In the cultivation of heaven and earth, there are no restrictions on whether one cultivates immortality or demonic arts. As long as it can be used for my purposes, there are no taboos." Wanqi Yanjing said with a hint of mockery, "As long as it can make me stronger, it is a good thing. What good people and bad people? Is this the kind of shallow knowledge your teacher taught you?"

Jiang Yiqing was too exhausted to argue with her. She looked for her books, but they weren't with her. She realized she had miscalculated by not immediately putting them into the system.

No, it's absolutely terrible.

"...What exactly do you want to do?"

"Don't you know best what I'm doing?" She moved closer to him in an instant and gently pulled him into her arms.

Jiang Yiqing looked at the almost negligible thin gauze she was wearing, and suppressed her anger that was about to erupt. She smiled and said, "Your taste is as poor as ever."

"My beloved concubine seems unhappy?" Wan Qiyan Jing smiled and said, "It's alright, you'll like it, as long as the technique doesn't leave you feeling lacking."

"..." Jiang Yiqing declared that no one could beat her in shamelessness.

“I know you better than my beloved concubine,” Wanqi Yanjing said. “You may not admit it, but you can’t forget this feeling, so you’ve returned to my side once again. I wish your mouth could be this honest someday.”

The two naturally embraced. Jiang Yiqing looked at the face so close to hers, and even though she hadn't been drinking, why did she feel dizzy again? Had Wan Qiyan Jing placed another hypnotic mark on her?
