Mi Li was speechless. This guy seemed like someone who wasn't quite right in the head. Would a normal person talk like that?
Anger from Mi Li +250!
“You bastard…” Mi Li gritted her teeth, about to lash out, but was interrupted by Zu An’s outstretched hand.
"etc!"
"What are you doing?" Mi Li frowned, wondering what he was up to now.
Zuan remained silent, but instead summoned his keyboard and began a new round of lotteries.
I lost over 30,000 yuan in the last lottery, so I can't repeat the same mistake this time. Once I can start drawing, I'll use up all my anger points!
I had 84 points left, and now I have 250 more, for a total of 334 points. I can draw three times and still have 34 points left.
For a moment, he even felt like he had made a profit.
As expected, I didn't win anything in these three draws.
But my mood is completely different from before. I feel so relaxed now. I've finally removed the flag I made earlier. It seems I really shouldn't make any vows lightly in the future.
What goes around comes around; no one escapes the wrath of Heaven!
"Alright, what were you about to say, Empress?" Zu'an was in a good mood, and a smile appeared on his face.
“I was just about to say…” Mi Li suddenly froze. Huh, what was I about to say? He interrupted me like that, and my emotions became disjointed.
After a long while, she finally reacted: "Hmph, don't you know why I signed a 'life and death contract' with you? Just thinking about it makes me angry. If you make any more frivolous or flirtatious remarks in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless."
She paused, as if worried that the other party might not be afraid of such an ambiguous threat, and added, "Although I can't kill you, I can still break one of your legs. Anyway, your skills need to be improved by being beaten, so I'm helping you with your cultivation."
"Hmm, the more I talk about it, the more eager I feel to try it out."
Noticing her gaze constantly drifting towards his legs, Zu An was startled and hurriedly said, "I believe you, I believe you, there's no need to test it. By the way, I have another question. Since Ying Zheng clearly had a way to deal with you, why didn't he purify you back then, instead opting for such a troublesome method as sealing you?"
Mi Li snorted: "The purification of the Primordial Chaos Scripture only works on the soul. I had a physical body to protect me at the time, so why would I be afraid of its purification?"
Zuan asked in confusion, "But why didn't he kill you first and then purify your soul? Forgive my bluntness, but although you are powerful, you should not be as strong as Ying Zheng. He must have a way to kill you if he wanted to."
Previously, Mi Li had been vague about this, but now, seemingly because their fates were completely intertwined, she finally began to explain: "He is a strong-willed person, and he always wanted me to submit and admit defeat, but how could I give in to his wishes! Of course, I also admit that he probably still had some consideration for our marital bond and didn't completely kill me..."
"We remained locked in this stalemate until Ying Zheng suddenly died, and I was naturally sealed away again."
Zuan noticed that her expression was a little strange when she said these things. It seemed that she was recalling the events of the past, or perhaps she was expressing her gratitude for Ying Zheng's leniency towards her.
But for some reason, he always felt that the other party seemed to be deliberately hiding something.
He knew there was no point in continuing to ask, so he decided to wait until they were more familiar with each other before looking for an opportunity to ask.
"By the way, you mentioned before that Zhang Han used the remaining power of the Soul-Suppressing Seal to join forces with Xiang Yu to seal away that army of 200,000 undead. Since Xiang Yu has been here, given his hatred for the Qin royal family, he wouldn't possibly let you go," Zu An asked.
"You know so much about Xiang Yu?" A hint of surprise flashed in Mi Li's eyes. "That's right. Back then, Xiang Yu slaughtered Qin soldiers who had surrendered, burned down the Epang Palace, and plundered Xianyang. Later, he learned of my existence from Zhang Han, so naturally he didn't want to let me go."
At this point, her tone became slightly angry: "He had long heard of my beauty, and given that I am the Queen of Qin, his desire to conquer me led him to harbor some unsavory thoughts about me."
"At first, he expressed his affection in the underground palace, but later he could no longer hold back and decided to break the Soul-Suppressing Seal to see me."
Zuan was startled: "With Xiang Yu's strength, the Soul-Suppressing Seal might not be able to stop him, right?"
In the history of his previous world, Xiang Yu was recognized as the most powerful warrior. In this mythical version of history, Xiang Yu's martial prowess must be off the charts!
“You’re wrong. Xiang Yu’s strength is indeed terrifying. The seals of man and earth didn’t hinder him at all. He can break through the formation much faster than you,” Mi Li replied.
Zuan looked embarrassed, thinking that losing to such a formidable opponent wasn't shameful.
Mi Li then said, "But he failed in the Heavenly Seal. No matter how high his cultivation was, he could never contend with the will of Heaven. In addition, he seemed to have encountered some trouble outside, and he never came to the underground palace again."
"That's why I thought the Heavenly Seal was extremely dangerous. After all, even someone as powerful as Xiang Yu couldn't break it. I had even less hope for someone like you who's only at the third rank."
"Who knew that you, kid, would break this heavenly seal? It's fate, really."
As she continued, Mi Li couldn't help but chuckle.
However, upon reflection, he realized that although he had finally broken free from the seal, he had entered another cage, and his expression darkened further.
Zuan, however, became smug: "It seems I really am the chosen one."
Seeing his smug look, Mi Li was still annoyed: "Hmph, if Xiang Yu hadn't damaged the sword spirit of the Tai'a Sword again when he broke through the formation, the difficulty of breaking the formation this time would have increased many times over."
