The scenery of Yaochi Holy Land is beautiful and absolutely stunning.
However, in this unknown corner of paradise, there is also darkness that outsiders cannot see.
"...A distant wind blows sharply, and suddenly I turn around to see the bright moon shining over a thousand mountains."
The world is vast, but my spirits are high; I march to Chang'an, singing all the way.
The lamplight was bright, the wine was warm, and everyone was enjoying themselves.
The crowd cheered, then dispersed, their robes fluttering, as dark clouds gathered...
Behind the mountain, Xianwan Hall.
Mu Qiuyao sat in a rattan chair, holding an exquisite dagger in her hand. She closed her eyes and smiled, humming the song that Shen Zhao sang when they first met in the Heavenly Sacred Land.
As soon as the song ended, her rhythmically swinging right leg suddenly stopped.
The moment she opened her eyes, a sharp, cold glint pierced her eyes as she saw Ruan Lingyue, who was tied to a tree.
Ruan Lingyue said angrily, "No matter what you ask, I will not answer. I advise you to give up on that idea and just kill me."
*Snap*
As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Qiuyao slapped her across the air.
"I hate it when people interrupt me when I'm expressing my feelings. Who gave you the audacity to be so disrespectful?"
Feeling the burning pain on her face, Ruan Lingyue was instantly enraged: "You dare slap me? You bitch!"
Snap snap snap snap—
The next moment, he slapped her hard in the air, making Ruan Lingyue's mouth and nose bleed, and leaving dented handprints on both sides of her cheeks.
"How dare you! I am the ruler of a nation! How dare you, you slut, yell at me like that? Do you think I, the Empress of Xuantian, am someone to be trifled with?"
"Xuantian...Empress..."
In an instant, Ruan Lingyue dared not speak again.
She had heard of the eight great female emperors of the Nine Realms in the Holy Domain.
Song Yanran, Mu Qiuyao, Luo Pianhong, Leng Qingcheng, Yu Qingzhu, Jiang Qingluan, Minghui Shenni, and Bai Xinian.
Each and every one of them is an outstanding individual, a peerless genius.
Especially Mu Qiuyao, whose ruthless methods are definitely among the best of the eight empresses. No one who has fallen into her hands has ever had a good ending.
"You...you should kill me..."
Thinking of this, Ruan Lingyue immediately decided to shatter her heart meridian to avoid suffering inhuman torture.
As soon as the idea came to mind, Mu Qiuyao directly sealed all the acupoints on her body with a finger strike.
"you……"
"Want to die? It's not that easy."
Mu Qiuyao then slowly stood up, walked up to her, and chuckled, "Tell me how to enter the Holy Domain, and I'll spare your life, how about that?"
Ruan Lingyue felt that the smile was like a demon, and she couldn't stop trembling.
"Not going to speak? It seems you're showing me, Empress Xuantian, absolutely no respect."
Mu Qiuyao sighed helplessly.
"Since that's the case, and I see you still have some beauty, I'll refine you into a furnace. I've heard you have a reputation for bringing the dead back to life."
Let those filthy men infected with diseases touch you and see if you can cure their ailments with your body. That shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?
"No, no!"
Ruan Lingyue was immediately terrified and her face turned pale.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this to me."
"Then tell me everything I know, so I won't suffer anymore."
Ruan Lingyue bit her lower lip tightly, her face showing great distress.
"Not going to talk? Hmm..."
Mu Qiuyao gave a soft snort and brandished the dagger in front of her clothes a few times.
"I forgot to tell you, I already sent Qingluan to find those filthy men."
They were all just ordinary people in their fifties, old and frail, and all single.
Some hadn't bathed for years, their bodies reeked of stench, and they even had lice and other infestations.
What do you think they would think if they saw a beautiful woman like you completely naked?
Ruan Lingyue's pupils contracted, and her delicate body trembled in fright.
An image flashed in my mind of a group of disgusting men, reeking of foul odor, snotty noses, and drooling, their ugly postures upon seeing my body, even raising their hands to touch myself…
"No, you can't do this to me!"
As a cultivator, especially a noble cultivator from the Holy Domain, she could not accept being toyed with by a bunch of lowly ants.
Please, please don't do that.
"Then tell me what I know."
As soon as he finished speaking, the blade of the dagger was already pointed at the neckline of her thin shirt.
With just a gentle downward swipe, Mu Qiuyao's clothes would instantly split in two.
"Sixteen thousand miles north of the Great Wilderness lies a passage called the Loulan Ancient Path."
When she said those words, Ruan Lingyue seemed to have lost all her strength, and she was panting heavily.
"Very well, next question, what do you plan to do with Qingluan in the Holy Realm?"
"Your Majesty, you have probably misunderstood. We have just arrived in the Eastern Region and have only heard of the fame of the Yaochi Empress. We have come simply to pay our respects to the Yaochi Empress and have no other intentions whatsoever."
"Hehe, you won't tell me, huh?"
Mu Qiuyao gently slashed downwards with the dagger.
A vertical tear appeared in the thin silk garment, revealing a purple undergarment underneath.
"No, stop! I really didn't lie to you, I really didn't!"
Ruan Lingyue's voice was choked with sobs as she pleaded with Mu Qiuyao.
"If you don't want to be humiliated, then tell me what you want to know. Otherwise, you'll wish you could die."
Ruan Lingyue shook her head, tears welling in her eyes: "Your Majesty, I really don't know what you're talking about."
"uh-huh……"
Mu Qiuyao's dagger slid down, instantly splitting Ruan Lingyue's clothes in two.
"Oh my, your physique is quite good. Although it's far inferior to mine, it's enough to make a bunch of ordinary men go crazy for you, hahaha..."
To Ruan Lingyue, Mu Qiuyao's laughter sounded like that of a mad demon.
