Villain Rule No. 1: Don’t provoke the protagonist’s group or any of those Children of Destiny. The farther away, the better!
Villain Rule No. 2: If you run into one of the protagonist’s...
Standing atop a cliff amidst a vast snow-covered plain, Ye Qinghan's vision was obscured by the wind and snow, yet her gaze still pierced through the snow and snow to reach the northern lands below.
In recent days, she seems to have gradually come to understand what the so-called Lord of the Northern Region means.
Dongfang Jue's personal guards seemed to be better at putting on an act than she was. As she watched her soldiers and civilians being kind to each other, it was as if she could see the world that her mother desired.
Ye Qinghan was very happy because she felt that her mother would be very happy if she could see that day!
Confusion won't last long, and naivety will eventually fade away.
Ye Qinghan always felt fortunate to have met his master, which was the greatest luck of his life.
"Mother, how is Qinghan doing?"
He took out the jade bottle from his bosom and held it in his palm as if it were a priceless treasure, as if he could finally meet the person he had been longing for.
"Master said that Qinghan should not lose his true self. I think Master is not afraid that Qinghan will become arrogant and licentious, but I don't know what Master means."
"Master told Qinghan not to try to become a demon emperor. Qinghan only needs to be himself. Master seems to trust Qinghan a lot."
"Qinghan doesn't want to disappoint his master either. Although Qinghan isn't interested in the Demon Emperor, he will still try to do it."
The bottle is delicate and smooth, and you can see shimmering light swimming around inside like small fish—that is the remnant soul of the mother.
He's right.
"ah!"
Ye Qinghan was startled! He almost dropped the bottle!
He quickly caught it and tentatively began to speak...
"Mother...mother?"
"Huh? Why does it look like I've seen a ghost?"
When his mother's voice came again, Ye Qinghan was somewhat dazed!
"Mother, can you hear me?"
"Otherwise what?"
"ah?"
"Don't be so surprised, I only recently... woke up?"
Ye's mother was gentle with a touch of playfulness, just like a friendly older sister next door. She took care of her while also joking around, and there was no sense of distance between them.
"Stop talking! Mother heard everything you just said!"
It's like you're talking to someone at a grave, and then you find that they've crawled out of the grave!
Then I heard everything they said!
Ye Qinghan was a little embarrassed, but fortunately, the embarrassment didn't last long. Being able to talk to his mother was good enough.
"Mother, do you think Qinghan would be a qualified demon emperor?"
Mother Ye burst into laughter, her laughter tinged with sarcasm, as if mocking the little fox's naiveté.
"Does the Demon Emperor need to ask his mother's opinion before making decisions? Heh~"
Ye Qinghan pouted; her mother was always so inappropriate with her!
"Mother, please stop teasing Qinghan. Qinghan is serious!"
And then, as the gentleness dissipated, the Demon Emperor's words, which conveyed a sense of oppression through his voice, fell.
"I am serious."
Ye Qinghan chuckled, "Hehe, I've been using this trick since I was a child."
My mother, as I remember her, seemed to have many faces, and she would have different attitudes towards different people.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that Master was the same way.
Is this how it is when we grow up?
"Mother, will Qinghan be able to talk to you anytime from now on?"
"No, it's not that. It takes a lot of effort to talk to my precious daughter, but I will do my best."
It seemed that both her mother and her master wanted her to do things her own way. Ye Qinghan didn't understand why, even though her master and mother knew what she should do, they were unwilling to tell her.
She understood that this was a learning opportunity, a kind of test, but she didn't know what kind of answer would be the right one to satisfy her mother and master.
Nevertheless, Ye Qinghan understood that even if she messed up, her master would help her resolve the issue, and her mother would not blame her.
"Mother, next time we meet, Qinghan will definitely give you a shock!"
"Mommy is really looking forward to it~"
The two exchanged only a few words before Ye's mother said she was tired and fell silent.
However, even Ye's mother didn't know that this conversation was only facilitated by a magical artifact.
Because there is no physical medium, it is a memory that belongs only to Ye Qinghan.
Once the conversation ends, Ye's mother will forget about what they talked about that day.
But for a mother, being able to stay by Ye Qinghan's side and grow up with her daughter is a luxury she can only dream of.
Even so, even if we can't communicate, it's still a dream come true!
To be able to look at her daughter, even just from inside a bottle, is a dream she never dared to imagine.
Inside the Lingxian Palace, the detoxification process was only halfway complete.
At this moment, the thought of suicide kept surfacing in Cang Jue's mind.
But this body yearns for battle!
She is a body cultivator; she was born to be a warrior!
The humiliation made her feel ashamed, but her body was more honest than she was!
The most shameful thing is that her honest body is no longer under her control.
She was yearning for that man, and she knew it shouldn't be, it was wrong!
She knew she was no match for that man.
But her body seemed unwilling to give in!
It's wrong, but she's already succumbed to this body, wanting to make the same mistake again and again.
"Su Cheng, I'll haunt you even in death!"
"Yes, I know, you've said it several times."
"Let me go!"
Su Cheng was speechless. If this guy hadn't been pressing down on him and holding on tightly, he might have believed it.
"Fine, fine, whatever you want."
To be honest, Su Cheng really underestimated Li Shiyao's medicine. If it weren't for the supreme fertility body, most people really couldn't withstand it!
