Inside the ancient royal tomb, on a black royal chair, Roman Ying crossed her legs, striking a seductive pose.
The moment the pale-skinned palm opened, a delicate spider lily bloomed in its hand.
"Hmm? Things seem to be getting interesting."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than the figure of the Heavenly Evil Mystic King appeared proudly on the White Bone King's Throne.
"You're back?"
"Um!"
The Heavenly Evil King let out a deep shout.
"The Bashu Prince's Mansion has been reduced to ruins, and the entire Xingshi City is now in a state of panic."
"Oh?" Roman Ying murmured, then lay on her side on the throne, spreading her legs covered in tattoos.
"It's really interesting that someone dares to act opposite Xu Rong."
Tianxie Xuanwang's blue eyes narrowed: "The Northern Region Empress Mu Qiuyao and the Yaochi Empress Jiang Qingluan were the two who destroyed the royal palace."
"Hmm? Two empresses recognized by the Heavenly Ranking appear in the Holy Domain at the same time? That's quite rare."
Luo Manying stretched out her arms, her face completely indifferent.
"But what does that have to do with us? Our mission is to find the descendant of the Jiang royal family, sacrifice her to open the Nine Netherworld Barrier, and we don't need to pay too much attention to the rest."
The Heavenly Evil King curled his lip: "If I told you that Jiang Qingluan is the last bloodline of the Jiang royal family left in this world, would you still have this attitude?"
"Huh? What did you say!"
This finally piqued Luo Manying's interest.
"You mean, Jiang Qingluan is a descendant of Jiang Xun?"
“I secretly eavesdropped on their conversation in the ancestral hall. Jiang Qingluan is Jiang Ni, a maid from the Xu family 1,500 years ago! It’s almost certain.”
"Then why don't you just kidnap Jiang Qingluan?"
"With Mu Qiuyao by my side, if I make a rash move, it will surely be a fight between two tigers, and my chances of winning are slim."
"snort!"
Luo Manying sat up straight again.
"Now that the person we're looking for has appeared, everything is easy. We need to find a way to get Mu Qiuyao away and control Jiang Qingluan!"
"It seems we should deploy the Heavenly Forbidden Evil Suppression."
As soon as the words were spoken, a figure draped in a silver robe, wearing an eyepatch over his left eye, and exuding an aura of malevolent energy, slowly stepped from the void into the ancient king's tomb.
"Tianjin Xiesu pays respects to the two evil kings."
Luo Manying: "Tianjin Xiesu, you and Tianxie Xuanwang must work together to bring Jiang Qingluan to the Ancient King's Tomb. This matter concerns the rise and fall of the Nine Netherworlds, and there must be no mistakes."
"I obey!"
Evil flames burned, and Tianjin Xiesu rose to his feet, having received his order, and walked to Tianxie Xuanwang's side.
"Alright, let's not delay, I'll go find Mu Qiuyao right now!"
After speaking, Tianxie Xuanwang and Tianjin Xiesu transformed into azure light and disappeared into the dark royal palace.
"Ha, this is getting more and more interesting."
Luo Manying's slender fingernails gently traced the peak of her half-naked breast, leaving a bright red bloodstain.
...
Outside Xingshi City, Mu Qiuyao lay on her side on a stone pavilion corridor, quietly watching the snowy wonderland.
Jiang Qingluan, standing to the side, played the zither, composing a tune of homesickness.
"Is this your hometown? It's so beautiful."
Mu Qiuyao let out a heartfelt sigh.
Jiang Qingluan stood up, grabbed a fur coat, and draped it over Mu Qiuyao's petite frame.
"The scenery in early spring is truly enchanting; I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to see it again in my lifetime."
Upon hearing Jiang Qingluan's words, Mu Qiuyao immediately tightened her fur coat and smiled gently, "How could I not see it? This is where you were born."
"Things have changed, people have changed, it's all in the past."
Jiang Qingluan sighed softly.
"No matter how beautiful the scenery, what can one do without a good companion?"
As he spoke, he stretched his hand out of the stone pavilion, and a snowflake landed right on his cold palm.
Mu Qiuyao's eyebrows curved into a smile: "Little girl, you're lovesick, aren't you?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingluan blushed slightly but did not reply.
Mu Qiuyao pressed on, "I'm very curious, how did you fall in love with Shen Zhao in your previous life? What was it about him that attracted you?"
Jiang Qingluan sighed, "Sister, stop making a fuss. What's the use of saying all this now? Young Master Shen won't care about me."
"Tell me, how can I help you if you don't tell me?"
"You can't force matters of the heart." Jiang Qingluan took a deep breath. "If I were rejected, we might not even be able to be friends anymore. It's fine as it is now."
"You're always like this," Mu Qiuyao sighed helplessly. "You keep so many things to yourself and don't tell anyone, so no one knows what you're thinking."
"Since you liked Shen Zhao in your past life, why didn't you just go and snatch him away? Don't tell me you couldn't beat that slut Yu Xiyan."
Jiang Qingluan shook her head, still not answering.
"Let me tell you, this is your last chance. If you really don't want to, I will never mention this again. If you regret it later, don't blame me for not helping you."
Mu Qiuyao issued an ultimatum.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingluan looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
She wanted to say it, but found it difficult to bring herself to do so.
"To tell or not to tell, if you don't want to tell, then let's drop this matter and never mention it again!"
"etc……"
Jiang Qingluan hurriedly took out a letter from her bosom.
"Sister, you know I'm shy, unlike you who are outgoing and can tell everyone your secrets."
This letter contains what I want to say to Shen Zhao. If you really want to help me, I hope that when you see Shen Zhao...
Could you please pass this letter on to him for me?
Mu Qiuyao took the letter, her eyes crinkling into a wider smile: "Oh my, is this considered a love letter? Let me see what you wrote."
As she spoke, Mu Qiuyao made a gesture as if to open the envelope.
"Sister, no."
Jiang Qingluan blushed and tried to stop her.
Mu Qiuyao then chuckled and dissolved the envelope into her storage ring: "Alright, I was just kidding. I'll pass it on for you."
