Chapter 161 Ten Years

The Heavenly Emperor coldly stared at the girl on the bed, one hand clenched into a fist: "Do you really think I won't kill you?"

Seeing his handsome face as cold as frost and his terrifying eyes, Han Wei shrank back, clutching the blanket with her pale arms, and said in a low voice, "I'm scared, so scared..."

Although she feigned weakness, the Heavenly Emperor knew she was emboldened by his own power. She was certain he wouldn't do anything to her, which was why she acted so brazenly, even seducing and teasing him.

This woman is audacious, cold-blooded, and utterly shameless. Such a woman…

How could he possibly fall for a woman like that?

Seeing the Heavenly Emperor turn to leave, Han Wei quickly said, "Hey, hey, don't go! Let's try again! We'll definitely succeed this time. Don't be so unconfident..."

The man stopped in his tracks, then abruptly turned to look at Han Wei. His golden pupils contracted and narrowed, and he approached her like a ferocious beast that had lost its mind. His appearance terrified Han Wei, who shrank back and shrank further into the bed.

The man who approached grabbed her soft, boneless arm and pulled her out. Han Wei screamed as he pinned her down.

"Hey, what... what do you want to do?"

"Could you please not be so rude!"

The girl, pinned beneath the man, feigned resistance while simultaneously welcoming him. The man's expression was cold, but his eyes were filled with savagery; he was determined to teach her a lesson.

So tired, so tired...

I'm so tired...

Han Wei was so tired that she didn't even have the strength to move a finger. Sure enough, when men get beastly, they really are worse than beasts.

She didn't know how long she had been adrift in desire, only that she felt like she had died and been reborn, reborn and died again, like a lone boat rising and falling in a turbulent sea, sometimes sinking to the bottom of the sea, and then being swept up by the waves and thrown high into the sky.

It went on and on, she cried and begged him to stop, but he wouldn't stop.

She showered him with compliments—"Good husband," "Good teacher," "Good brother," "Good husband"—but that beast ignored her completely.

She genuinely felt that he wanted to kill her.

So tired...

So tired, so tired...

She drifted off to sleep and woke up again, only to find herself alone on the bed; the beast was gone.

Han Wei lay on the bed, staring at the light gold gauze curtains. After a long while, she regained some strength and slowly got up. Her head was still dizzy, and her body felt like it was falling apart. She released her divine sense and saw that the palace was empty, and there was no one around.

Her clothes, bracelets, and other belongings were scattered on the ground. With a wave of Han Wei's hand, a storage bracelet flew towards her and landed on her snow-white wrist. Han Wei immediately took out a bottle of celestial dew from the storage bracelet and drank it to replenish her strength.

Then she lay back down on the bed. Her regenerative abilities were already extremely abnormal, and after drinking the elixir, her whole body was glowing. The traces left on her fair skin quickly disappeared. Her physical fatigue also vanished without a trace as she absorbed the elixir.

After a long while, Han Wei got up from the bed, dressed, tidied herself up, and then left the palace to find the "beast" who had tormented her for who knows how long.

————

The vast palace was eerily quiet. A young girl in a purple gauze dress walked through the corridors, gazing at the jade palaces and pearl towers around her, and shouted loudly:

"My husband~"

"My lord~"

Han Wei walked for a long time but still couldn't find the Heavenly Emperor.

"Master, where are you?" Han Wei shouted.

Everything was quiet.

Han Wei shouted again, "Beast, beast, where are you?"

After calling out for ages without seeing anyone, Han Wei, in a fit of anger, turned and transformed into a long rainbow, flying out of the Chess Saint Palace. After leaving the Chess Saint Palace, she went to find Xu Lingyue.

Xu Lingyue was still cultivating outside the Chess Saint Palace. Han Wei arrived at Xu Lingyue's cave, where Xu Lingyue had just emerged from seclusion. Seeing Han Wei, she was overjoyed: "Weiwei, you're back? Have you finished your cultivation?"

Cultivation?

Han Wei: "..."

Xu Lingyue still believes she is cultivating in the Chess Saint Palace.

"Um..." A faint blush appeared on Han Wei's face. "I guess this is the end of it." After she finished speaking, she looked Xu Lingyue up and down and said with a smile, "Not bad, you've already reached the mid-stage of the Mahayana realm."

"For the past ten years, I've been diligently cultivating here, and finally broke through the bottleneck of the early Mahayana stage a few days ago," Xu Lingyue said with a smile. She added that she owed her rapid advancement to the mid-Middle Mahayana stage to Han Wei. Han Wei always gave her the medicinal herbs she won from chess to refine pills. Originally, she intended to refine pills for Han Wei, but Han Wei never consumed them, and all the pills ended up benefiting her.

She still has some good medicines she hasn't taken yet.

"What? Ten years?" Han Wei's eyes widened.

Ten years have passed?

“Yes, it’s been ten years. You’ve been cultivating in the Chess Saint Palace for ten years.” Xu Lingyue looked at Han Wei with a puzzled expression, thinking to herself, “Weiwei is cultivating too diligently. She doesn’t even realize how much time has passed.”

Han Wei's lips twitched, she turned her back, and gritted her teeth.

Ten years? He actually possessed her for ten years. At the time, I felt like I was both dead and alive, and I lost consciousness many times. But I never expected so much time to have passed.

Ten years later, he truly is a beast, the beast among beasts.

"Weiwei, what's wrong with you?" Xu Lingyue was puzzled when she saw Han Wei gritting her teeth.

"N-nothing," Han Wei said.

Xu Lingyue looked at her and asked, "Have your two wishes come true? Do you want to continue cultivating in the Chess Saint Palace?"

"I'm not cultivating anymore, I'm not cultivating anymore," Han Wei said. That beast has already taken advantage of her for ten years; she's not going to stay here and let him take advantage of her any longer. She looked at Xu Lingyue and grabbed her hand. "I'm planning to leave. Where do you want to go?"

"I plan to return to the sect," Xu Lingyue said. "I've been out training for a long time, and it's time to go back and see my master and the others."

"You're going back to Fengqing Realm, right? Then I'll go back with you," Han Wei said with a smile.

"Okay, okay!" Xu Lingyue said happily.

She already had few friends, so when Han Wei said she wanted to go back with her, Xu Lingyue was very happy. And so the two of them left Panlong Mountain.

Above the sea of ​​clouds, Han Wei and Xu Lingyue transformed into two long rainbows, flying further and further away.

High up in the Chess Saint Palace, a silver-haired man in a black robe stood with his hands behind his back.

A cute little cat was perched on the railing, licking its paws as it looked at the two long streaks of light in the distance. It asked the silver-haired, golden-eyed man, "Your Majesty, she's gone."

"They're gone, so be it. It'll be peaceful now that they're gone." The Heavenly Emperor snorted coldly and turned to walk inside.

Ling'er: "..."

It's obvious I care a lot, it's so awkward.

The Heavenly Emperor sat down before the jade table, picked up a cup of celestial tea, and his golden eyes were icy cold.

She kept saying she didn't want to break up with him, that she was at his mercy, but now she's leaving so gracefully. Not a single word that woman said is believable.
