Hua Qing'er was shocked by Mo Hua's direct rejection. Her face turned pale, and she clenched her fists, unable to speak. "I, I..."

"Hmph, if you're so capable, come find me again when you become the strongest empress in this world!" Mo Hua snorted coldly, then followed Cang Mu away without looking back.

Hua Qing'er trembled. "Empress? Why Empress?"

Mo Hua has always harbored a world-shaking ambition: she wants the phoenix above and the dragon below! She wants the world to crown her Empress!

However, she imposed all her own ideas on Hua Qing'er and never gave Hua Qing'er a single bit of maternal love from childhood to adulthood!

Heaven is unjust, why treat her like this? From childhood to adulthood, she has never known what a father is, only this mother has been with her, but why does she never treat her with respect?

Why?

Why!

"Hehe... Hahaha! Hahaha—" Hua Qing'er laughed loudly, her voice filled with sorrow and melancholy.

Her entire life was lived in the shadows, weary and tormented. For better or for worse, she never received affirmation from her loved ones. She lived a life without regrets, but died with shame. Who knew that her life and death were as insignificant as an ant's, completely ignored!

Turning around, everyone watched her departing figure, which seemed desolate, like someone nearing the end of their life.

Watching Hua Qing'er's departing figure, they shook their heads and sighed, knowing that the imperial city would soon have another madwoman!

First is Xuan Qing'er, second is Hua Qing'er

Heaven has failed these two peerless beauties!

However, unbeknownst to them, there was another person...

"Xiao Bai, let's go with your father."

"I'm going to wait for him to come back." She stubbornly turned her head away, gazing wistfully into the distance.

"Listen to me, he's not coming back!"

"I'm going to wait for him to come back!" she said bitterly, her "dream" resolute and unwavering.

"He is a demon, you are a human, you cannot be together!"

"I will wait for him—to come back!" She glared fiercely at the heavens, refusing to look back!

She wants—

Wait until the wind stops, wait until the rain stops

Waiting until early summer, waiting until the winter solstice

Waiting until the end of time

until--

Until he comes back!

From this moment

From that moment

The imperial city remains as prosperous as ever, but it has changed in the eyes of the world.

Because of the arrival of the Heavenly Palace, after the election, the famous Royal Casino in the Imperial City was no longer there, nor was the Wanbao Palace, which gathered the world's most famous treasures. Even the Qingge Hall, which used to be a place of nightly revelry, dared not sing and dance at night. And the Chess Alliance, which had disappeared for a long time for some unknown reason, was no longer cared about.

Everything seemed to be undergoing a revolutionary change, and all of this stemmed from three exceptionally beautiful women—

One night

"Aaaaah! Oh no! Qing Nu has started her killing spree again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man's panicked scream came from the alley.

At this moment, a woman emerged from the alley, holding a blood-stained sword, her eyes bloodshot and radiating murderous intent.

Looking at the trembling, blood-covered youth, he coldly asked, "Tell me, where is he?"

"I...I don't know! Your Majesty, I really don't know who you're talking about!" The young man was terrified, his face pale, and he knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly. "Your Majesty, please don't kill me! Please don't kill me!"

Upon hearing his words, the woman looked disappointed and sorrowful, and immediately shouted angrily, "You don't know his whereabouts? How could you not know his whereabouts! He disappeared in the capital city, and the people of the capital city are responsible for finding him! You actually tell me you don't know? Then—what use are you to me!"

With a swift stroke, he severed the young man's head.

Xuan Qing'er raised her head, completely ignoring the blood on her body, and stiffly turned her head, her face filled with madness:

"Anyone who doesn't know his whereabouts must die!"

Xuan Qing'er continued walking towards the alley. The originally clear sky suddenly became overcast as she approached. Then she saw a woman in a white dress raising her head and gazing at the sky, facing the wind and rain without wavering!

"Did you wait for him?" Ignoring the wind and rain, Xuan Qing'er went straight to the girl in the white dress and stared blankly at her as she asked.

The girl in the white dress smiled slightly, her pale face showing no emotion, and tirelessly repeated the same sentence she had been using recently:

"I'm waiting for him to come back!"

Xuan Qing'er's eyes lit up and she nodded. "Yes, I want to find him and bring him back!"

The two stood side by side, like close friends, gazing intently at the sky. They both believed that their beloved would return!

She's like a mad dog, rambling on and on.

She waited by day and searched by night.

The promise to meet at dawn repeats itself endlessly, day after day, until—

A man dressed in a black robe and wearing a skull mask suddenly appeared in the imperial city, and his appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.

His dark purple eyes were filled with coldness. Ignoring the murmurs of the crowd, he walked straight up to the woman in the white dress.

The woman in the white dress looked at him, but her gaze was unfocused; that wasn't the man she was waiting for!

There's no need to glance at it!

"Hua Baixian?" Her dark purple eyes met his cold gaze, and her chilling voice was equally cold as she spoke.

An Qianbai's eyes widened in surprise as she finally recognized the person before her. "Who... are you?"

"Who I am is not important. Do you remember who killed Gu Liyan?"

An Qianbai trembled upon hearing Gu Liyan's name, her gaze instantly regaining its usual clarity. "You know Xiao Li? You've seen Xiao Li? Where is he? Where is he? Please, please tell me!"

Mo Han snorted coldly, "Answer my question!"

A furious shout drew everyone's attention; it was the first time they had ever seen anyone dare to speak to the infatuated woman from the capital.
