Upon hearing Yingyi's report, the slight upturn on her lips did not ease in the slightest.
Instead, as if pulled by an evil force, it rose slightly, revealing an even colder, more chilling smile.
That smile was like a thousand-year-old iceberg hanging high on a cliff in the dead of winter, exuding a chilling aura.
It seemed to freeze the surrounding air instantly, making people feel as if they were in an ice cellar, and a chill would involuntarily creep up their bodies.
Immediately afterwards, her cold voice seemed to roar out from the endless dark abyss of the deepest hell.
It carried an endless chill that could make one's soul tremble and a raging rage, like rolling thunder.
The words echoed loudly in the slightly cramped room, which was filled with an eerie atmosphere: "A bunch of useless trash! Cheng Xiao was able to complete the research so easily, and the results were remarkable."
Why is it that when it comes to these incompetent fools, things become so difficult and inefficient?
Hmph, and they have the audacity to say 'it will take some time,' but how long exactly? A year? Or two?
Do they think I'm going to be a fool and wait here endlessly for ten or eight years?
I don't have that much time and worthless patience to wait for this group of useless, incompetent fools who are good for nothing but causing trouble!
If they continue to make no progress, don't blame me for being ruthless and making them pay the price for their incompetence!
Her voice wasn't loud, but every word seemed to carry sharp shards of ice, crashing heavily into the air and sending chills down one's spine.
It was as if one could sense the intense killing intent and anger contained in those words.
When Ying heard Qi Meng's words, which seemed to carry the endless chill of the deepest hell, each word was like a sharp icicle, mercilessly piercing into his heart.
A chilling sensation surged from his tailbone like a raging undercurrent, instantly engulfing his entire body and causing him to shiver involuntarily.
The chill seemed to shake away the last bit of warmth from his body.
His body, already taut with extreme fear, trembled even more violently, like a withered leaf drifting in a storm, fragile and helpless.
Even the voice that came out from his dry lips trembled violently, each syllable filled with deep awe and fear.
He replied cautiously, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I will urge them as quickly as possible."
They must be made to work day and night, racing against time to speed up the progress, and complete the research in the shortest possible time to present a satisfactory result to the master.
"My loyalty to my master is as clear as day and night; I would never dare to be negligent or delay in the slightest."
Qi Meng was like a ghost gliding silently in the dark night, her figure light yet exuding a chilling aura, as she slowly turned around.
Her beautiful eyes were like a deep, boundless pool in the cold night, the water icy cold and radiating a chilling aura, as if it could freeze everything around her into an ice sculpture in an instant.
And deep within those icy, frosty eyes, there was a fleeting, sharp killing intent, like the glint of a blade being drawn from its sheath.
This killing intent was like a deadly lightning bolt, as if it would materialize in the next second and mercilessly shatter everything in front of it.
She looked down at Yingyi kneeling before her, her gaze like sharp arrows, carrying a chilling sense of oppression.
It was as if it could penetrate his body, reach the depths of his soul, and perceive every subtle thought and idea in his heart.
Just as Yingyi was feeling the oppressive atmosphere so oppressive that her chest tightened and she could barely breathe,
Just as her heart was filled with overwhelming anxiety and unease, Qimeng suddenly changed the subject without warning.
Her voice grew increasingly cold, as if it came from the depths of ice and snow that had never melted for millennia, carrying a chill capable of freezing everything.
He asked coldly, "Do you know that Dark Moon has now awakened, and after this period of recuperation and recovery, her martial arts skills have returned to about 70-80% of what they used to be?"
Shadow One, you have been following me for a long time, and I have always known that you are decisive and swift in your actions, like a thunderbolt, never hesitant or indecisive.
But now, when did you become so hesitant and indecisive, dragging your feet and losing all your former charm?
Or perhaps... you've secretly harbored a wolfish ambition to betray me? Hmm?
That last "hmm," with its slightly rising tone, was like a heavy hammer, carrying boundless majesty and killing intent, striking Yingyi's heart with tremendous force.
It felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar, and cold sweat poured out of his forehead and back like a burst dam, soaking his clothes.
Qi Meng spoke her last words softly, yet they were like a chilling gust of wind blowing from the depths of hell, carrying with them a terrifying, eerie aura.
That palpable killing intent was like a sharp blade tempered with countless vicious curses, instantly tearing apart the already oppressive, suffocating air.
With overwhelming force, like a black lightning bolt, it pierced straight towards him.
