Yun Che’s chest rose and fell, and he frowned, “Tell me first, who are you? Why are you doing this to me… and why?”
He found that he could no longer see Shen Xi clearly.
He was almost completely exposed in front of her. She could always see through his secrets, his thoughts, and even things he himself was not aware of. However, she took the initiative to reveal her true face in front of him, which made Yun Che feel that the fog around her was getting thicker and thicker.
"Master, you... are what you just said true?" He Ling's face changed color. She felt that she had heard the most unbelievable words in her life.
Shen Xi was always so indifferent and gentle. She said slowly, “You know my name ‘Shen Xi’, and you should have heard of the name ‘Dragon Queen’, but you don’t seem to know that in the eyes of the world, ‘Dragon Queen Shen Xi’ is a complete title.”
“…” Yun Che’s expression and eyes changed drastically at the same time: “You… are… the Dragon Queen!?”
He had heard from He Ling that the Dragon Emperor would come to the Forbidden Land of Samsara once every one or two months, and that he was infatuated with Shen Xi… and it seemed that this was known to everyone. For a moment, the thought that “Shen Xi must be the Dragon Queen” flashed through his mind, but this thought was completely extinguished the next moment.
At this moment, listening to the words spoken by Shen Xi himself, he was still in shock and couldn’t believe it. He raised his head suddenly and said, “No! It’s impossible! You clearly… still have your Yuan Yin, how could you be the Dragon Queen?”
The Dragon Queen and the Goddess, in the legends of the God Realm, were two women with the most extreme beauty in the world. With Shen Xi’s beauty and appearance, if she were the Dragon Queen, she would definitely live up to the title, and it would not be an exaggeration.
If it weren't for yesterday, he would believe it.
But, that day and night just passed…how could he believe that Shen Xi could actually be the Dragon Queen!
Everyone in the God Realm knows that the Dragon Queen is a descendant of the Dragon God clan and the wife of the Dragon Emperor, the number one figure in Chaos!
Looking at Yun Che’s obviously distorted expression, He Ling said timidly: “Master, she…she…she really is the Dragon Queen.”
Yun Che: “…”
“You don’t have to feel strange, nor do you have to feel that you have done anything wrong.” Shen Xi said softly, “‘Dragon Queen’ is indeed what the world calls me, but it is just a title. It does not mean that I am a descendant of the dragon clan, let alone a descendant of the Dragon Emperor.”
"The 'Dragon Queen' that the world thinks of never existed."
“…” Yun Che was stunned for several breaths. Thinking of what He Ling said about Shen Xi being bound here for some reason and unable to leave, he had some vague guesses in his mind. But when he thought about what he had done with her, his scalp still tingled: “What is your relationship with the Dragon Emperor…? If… not… why are you called the ‘Dragon Queen’?”
Shen Xi did not hide anything and said calmly, “Giving me the title of ‘Dragon Queen’ has allowed me to stay here safely for so many years. This is his reward to me, and it is also what I wish for. As for the Dragon Emperor, in my eyes, he has always been a… junior.”
“Younger…generation?” This answer made Yun Che and He Ling stunned.
“Thirty-five thousand years ago, when I first met him, he was even younger than you, probably only about twenty years old.” Shen Xi narrated slowly, “At that time, he was killed by his own people and abandoned in a desolate land. His whole body was crippled, he could not see, he could not speak, and he was in despair, waiting to die.”
"I felt compassion at the time, so I saved him and used the power of light to repair his eyes, mouth, and meridians."
She glanced at Yun Che and said, “Dragons are the most respected of all spirits, and the Dragon God Clan has always been the strongest in the God Realm.
A great sacred race. In the eyes of the world, they are proud and have a strong dignity, and never disdain despicable and ugly behavior. But they don’t know that the struggle of the dragon race may be darker than that of you humans, but you just can’t see it. "
Shen Xi’s words had indeed overturned Yun Che’s perception of the dragon race. He had never imagined that the current emperor of the dragon race, who was so powerful and invincible, had such a tragic past… His entire body had been crippled, and his eyes, mouth, and tongue had also been crippled. Just thinking about it made people shudder.
"After experiencing despair, his temperament changed drastically. He originally had no ambition, but because of his hatred, he developed great ambition and showed no mercy to his own people... step by step, he finally became the Dragon King."
“In other words, without you, there would be no Dragon Emperor today.” Yun Che seemed to be talking to himself.
Shen Xi shook her head slightly. “From the moment I rescued him, I noticed that he looked at me differently, and I have seen this kind of look too many times in my life. I thought that everything would slowly fade away with time. But, hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of years later, he was still the same as he was at the beginning. The day he finally became the Dragon King, he told me that he had done everything he could to become the most respected of the dragon race, just to be worthy of me… Even though he knew that there was no possibility for him and me, he was never willing to give up.”
She sighed softly: "I saved him back then, but it seems that I also hurt him."
She had always been indifferent to the Dragon Emperor’s feelings towards her. For more than 300,000 years, she had never paid any attention to it… But now that Yun Che had appeared, she had no choice but to start paying attention to it.
“…” Yun Che was silent for a very long time.
Although Shen Xi’s words were brief, they were enough for Yun Che to roughly understand what they meant.
With Shen Xi’s elegance and grace, the number of admirers in the past would definitely not be less than that of the goddess today. And with the title of Dragon Queen, and this place being listed as a forbidden area, no one in the world can disturb her peace and quiet. This can be considered as a way for the Dragon Emperor to repay Shen Xi... but how can it not contain the Dragon Emperor’s selfishness and desire?
Although the Dragon Emperor’s experience was ten thousand times greater than his, Yun Che could understand the Dragon Emperor’s obsession with Shen Xi… He was saved by Shen Xi when he was most desperate and helpless, and coupled with her dreamlike beauty, when the light reappeared before his eyes, the scene he saw must have been deeply engraved in his heart and soul, and he would never forget it for the rest of his life.
He is the Dragon Emperor, but he is also a mortal spirit.
Because of Shen Xi, he had never been involved with any woman for more than 300,000 years... At least according to rumors, he had only had one woman in his life, the "Dragon Queen". It was rare in the world for someone to be so devoted and persistent.
As for Shen Xi, facing the Dragon Emperor’s infatuation for more than 300,000 years, even though he had become the Dragon Emperor, the supreme and number one person in the Chaos Realm, she really had never responded in the slightest...
Her complete existence of Yuan Yin is the proof of everything.
Yun Che's heart was in turmoil, and he couldn't calm down no matter what.
Shen Xi was the Dragon Queen among the “Dragon Queens and Goddesses”! Although the title of “Dragon Queen” was just an empty title that allowed her to remain in peace for so many years, only she and the Dragon Emperor knew this. However, in the eyes of the world, she was the queen of the dragon clan… and she had sex with the “Dragon Queen” while she was half awake and half unconscious!
The Dragon Emperor was extremely powerful and in a high position, and he was extremely infatuated with Shen Xi, but for hundreds of thousands of years he had not dared to have any extravagant hopes, let alone the slightest blasphemy. Perhaps, in his eyes, Shen Xi was a perfect dream... If he knew that this "dream" had been tarnished by an insignificant junior in front of him... his reaction was simply unimaginable.
At the same time, he could no longer understand why Shen Xi, who was indifferent to even the Dragon Emperor, would treat him like this?
Those looks, those actions, no one could believe or understand them... Could it be that from the time he entered the forbidden land of samsara until now, he had actually been dreaming, and none of it was real?
Looking at Yun Che’s ever-changing expression, Shen Xi smiled and said, “Are you scared?”
Yun Che: “…”
“If you are afraid, afraid of facing the Dragon Emperor, then…” Shen Xi’s eyes moved away from Yun Che and looked indifferently into the distance: “You can pretend that what happened yesterday never happened. I can guarantee that no one else will know about this. I will never tell you about what I said today again.”
Yun Che exhaled several times, and his chest gradually calmed down: “You are the Dragon Queen, but you are not the Dragon Queen that people think of you as. In other words, I have never done anything to let down the Dragon Emperor!”
Shen Xi whispered, “I, Shen Xi, do not belong to anyone but myself. Whatever I did to you, whatever you did to me, it’s only about you and me. You certainly haven’t let him down.”
“Then why should I be afraid? Why shouldn’t I dare?!” Yun Che’s tone was a little stiff, but he still said it firmly.
“…” Shen Xi turned her eyes away and nodded slightly: “Finally you didn’t disappoint me.”
“But, you must tell me, why are you treating me like this… what is it exactly?” Yun Che stared at her, not knowing whether it was because he couldn’t look away or because he wanted to find something in her beautiful eyes that were like the starry night.
Shen Xi shook her head: “I can’t tell you. I have my own selfish desires, but please believe me, I will never harm you.”
“Why can’t I tell you?” Yun Che asked.
“Because you are too insignificant right now.” Shen Xi said bluntly, “The higher your level, the broader your horizons will be. The stronger your strength, the more choices you will have. With your current strength and level, if I tell you everything, it can indeed solve your confusion, but it will also harm you.”
She avoided Yun Che's direct gaze, her eyes becoming slightly hazy: "I originally thought that there was nothing ahead of me. All these years, all I could do was to get rid of the constraints here, and then look for a home in the vast world that might never exist... until you appeared."
Yun Che: “Me?”
He Ling: “…Ah?”
“If you can’t resolve the doubts in your heart, then you only need to remember one sentence.” Shen Xi said softly: “Our destiny is one.”
She had not thought before that this man, whom Xia Qingyue had brought across the Eastern and Western Divine Realms and whom she had not wanted to take in but had kept because of He Ling’s crying and begging, was actually the person she had thought she would never find.
Moreover, he appeared in front of her before she could break free from her restraints.
This very light and subtle sentence undoubtedly brought Yun Che deeper doubts. He was completely at a loss: "Except for the identities of Shen Xi and the Dragon Queen, who are you...?"
He had only been here for two months. If Xia Qingyue had not brought him here because he was hit by the Death-Wishing Mark, he would not have known of Shen Xi’s existence. “Our fate is one”, he could not understand this sentence no matter what.
"If one day you can surpass the height of the Dragon Emperor, then you will naturally know everything. You can do it, and you must do it. Only in this way will you no longer be afraid of anyone's covetousness, no longer be timid in doing anything, and can truly face the Dragon Emperor without fear or guilt."
“You are endowed with the divine power of creation and…” Shen Xi paused for a moment before continuing, “This is your fate that you cannot escape.”
