“Shen Zhao, look closely. This is the outcome of your choice, which is completely different from what you know.”
In her memory, it was the scene when Yu Xiyan and Lin Feng first met and Shen Zhao bumped into them.
Then, Shen Zhao violently slapped Lin Feng away.
Then, his face was full of anger as he stared intently at Yu Xiyan.
Yu Xiyan felt extremely uncomfortable under his gaze: "Chen Zhao, what are you doing?!"
Shen Zhao took a step closer, staring intently at Yu Xiyan with an extremely aggressive gaze: "Who gave you permission to associate with this kind of person? Do you still consider me your man?"
Yu Xiyan: "I am the ruler of a country. Do I need to inform you who I contact?"
Shen Zhao sneered: "Heh, don't forget, I am your husband, the husband with whom you have a marriage certificate!"
Yu Xiyan angrily asked, "What do you want to do?"
Shen Zhao: "Looks like you really need to be taught a lesson. I've been fulfilling all your requests..."
You actually dared to hook up with other men behind my back? Do you really think I wouldn't dare do anything to you?
Yu Xiyan was immediately frightened: "What, what are you going to do? We had an agreement!"
No, no... Ah... What are you doing? Put me down! What are you trying to do?
Yu Xiyan originally intended to use her imperial demeanor to subdue Shen Zhao, but the next moment, Shen Zhao did not hesitate to pick Yu Xiyan up by the waist, ignoring her struggles in his arms, and finally walked directly into the palace.
"What am I going to do? Naturally, I'm going to do the things I've wanted to do all these years but haven't had the chance to. Since you're my wife, you should fulfill your duties as a wife."
"Let me go, Shen Zhao! You promised me you wouldn't touch me without my permission. Are you going to break your promise?"
"Hahaha, so what if you broke your promise? We'll fulfill our vow today!"
That night, Shen Zhao brutally took Yu Xiyan, ignoring her cries and pleas, striking her soul again and again.
By dawn, everything had settled down.
From that moment on, Yu Xiyan's gaze towards him finally changed, becoming tender and affectionate, filled with reluctance.
After the storm of that night, the two worked together harmoniously to manage the Yintian Dynasty in an orderly manner.
Under Shen Zhao's guidance, Yu Xiyan eventually became an excellent ruler, making for a perfect ending.
The fortune teller withdrew his supernatural powers and said to Shen Zhao, who was still in a daze, "Do you see? There are many things you could have stopped, but you chose not to."
Women are naturally drawn to strength; aside from emotional factors, it's ingrained in their genes—they yearn to be conquered by the men they desire.
They longed for care and protection. If you had done so from the beginning, none of this tragedy could have been avoided. But your inaction led to this outcome.
"Shen Zhao, do you understand what I'm saying now? You bear an undeniable responsibility for how Yu Xiyan turned out this way."
"absurd!"
Shen Zhao interrupted the fortune teller directly.
"How did you come up with such a stupid logic? How can someone who has been killed nine times be the culprit?"
Furthermore, even if the possibility depicted in the image were true, I would absolutely not bother using it. Women admire strength, and men have a protective instinct; it's true that these are innate genes.
However, this is based on mutual trust. To force someone to change their mind through violence is disgusting just to think about.
Even if I were reborn, without any external factors, I would never stoop to using such means to achieve my goal.
This is the fundamental difference between me and you: you can have no bottom line, but I cannot!
The fortune teller said, "Regardless, I still have to advise you not to provoke Yu Xiyan any further. Really, her condition is very unstable right now."
Although her memories were erased in her previous nine reincarnations, the resentment that arose from her obsession grew stronger with each rebirth.
In this lifetime, it has accumulated to an extremely terrifying level, and what surprised me was that...
The source of this resentment seems to be outside this world; I have no way of tracing its origin, and can only try to suppress it by offering guidance…
Shen Zhao interrupted him directly: "What does this have to do with me?"
"The only thing I'm certain of is that my resentment arose because of you. Do you think that matters?"
"Heh, why don't you ask me if I have any resentment at all?"
The fortune teller sighed, and finally said in an almost pleading tone, "I'm begging you, please give her a chance. It doesn't necessarily have to be a marital relationship."
Even if it's just a collaboration, try not to provoke her. Once that resentment gets out of control, the consequences will be unimaginable.
This concerns an unprecedented catastrophe, you know? After Yu Xiyan died in her previous nine lives, it was that resentment that caused Xie Ran to lose control.
It destroyed the entire Nine Realms, and even all the kingdoms of the Upper Heaven were reduced to terrifying, unknown monsters.
"Really, this isn't an exaggeration; the resentment within Yu Xiyan truly concerns the survival of a world."
Shen Zhao stared blankly at the training ground.
After a long while, he slammed his hand on the wooden railing and stared at the fortune teller for a long time.
Suddenly he grabbed the fortune teller's head and whispered in his ear, word by word, "I'll say it again..."
To ask me to be magnanimous enough to pretend nothing happened and get back together with her—in short, I can't do it!
If you're going to cause me any trouble, you'd better think twice. I can handle the system, let alone your version with its T0 logic.
Stop trying to scare me. Cooperating with her for now is already the biggest concession we can make. Don't push your luck.
After saying that, he pushed the fortune teller aside, turned around, and walked down from the watchtower.
"well--"
