At this moment, Murong Xi was undoubtedly very satisfied.
She wished time could stand still at this moment, in this warm and quiet place, where Jing Zhe belonged only to her…
She nestled in Jing Zhe's arms like a kitten, letting his hands caress her body, and as she panted, she kept letting out moans that made people's hearts itch.
However, when Jing Zhe's wicked hands were no longer satisfied with the upper three routes and turned to attack the lower three routes, Murong Xi quickly grabbed his hands.
Jing Zhe looked up, somewhat puzzled.
Murong Xi's face was flushed. Although she had thought about some things last night and didn't resist them, now was clearly not the right time.
She hasn't taken her medicine yet...
She can't openly take the medication; what would he think of her then? She's already resorting to underhanded tactics before even marrying him? Won't it leave a bad impression?
But she had to take this step, because as the empress of Yueyao Kingdom, she was still somewhat apprehensive, even though she said it was easy and that she could give up the throne.
But who can say for sure what will happen after we return to Yueyao Kingdom?
Therefore, she had to do it, so that no matter how much the people and ministers of Yueyao Kingdom opposed it, they would not be able to make her empress again.
At this moment, Murong Xi was thinking about how to take the medicine legitimately before handing herself over to him.
Then she pressed herself against Jing Zhe's chest and whispered, "Do you know who wants to kill me?"
Jing Zhe nodded and said, "I heard about it from that Soul-Severing Fan, but I don't know if she's your older sister or your younger sister?"
“She is my eldest sister, Murong Chen.”
Murong Xi continued, "Then how do you know that the Soul-Severing Fan, which has long transcended worldly affairs, would be willing to kill me for a promise she made?"
Upon hearing this, Jing Zhe perked up. He had long wanted to ask about the Immortal Transformation Pill, and now that he had the opportunity, how could he miss it?
So he asked, "What exactly is the use of this Immortal Transformation Pill? Why does the Soul-Severing Fan value it so much?"
Murong Xi steadied himself and began to speak.
...
Because of its southern location, pleasant temperature, flat terrain, and abundant rainfall, Yueyao Kingdom is known as a land of fish and rice, which is why Xijiang Kingdom asks Yueyao Kingdom for grain every year.
Compared to the harsh climate of Western Xinjiang, the Yueyao Kingdom is worlds apart from Western Xinjiang.
Of course, besides being abundant in fruits, vegetables and grains, Yueyao Kingdom also has a great variety of medicinal herbs, surpassing even Jinxi, the medicine capital of An Kingdom.
Therefore, in the early years, Yueyao Kingdom also produced many alchemists. However, because Yueyao Kingdom was a women's kingdom, there were not many martial arts masters in the country. As a result, most of the alchemists in Yueyao Kingdom became targets of other kingdoms and sects, and the miraculous pills they refined were basically taken away by other martial arts practitioners.
Martial arts practitioners commission alchemists to concoct medicines in order to hone their skills and reach the pinnacle of martial arts as soon as possible with the help of the medicines.
Those who don't practice martial arts also want to concoct and consume medicine, but their purpose isn't martial arts; it's immortality.
Ultimately, one was pursuing spiritual cultivation, while the other was seeking immortality.
The one who most desired to refine elixirs for immortality was none other than the then-Empress Yueyao. Therefore, the Yueyao royal family stepped forward and gathered the ten most outstanding alchemists in the Yueyao Kingdom. According to their needs, the entire nation mobilized to collect the most precious herbs, such as the "Breaking Realm Flower" that Jing Zhe had seen at the foot of Changsheng Mountain.
Later, these alchemists were imprisoned in the palace and refined the elixir of immortality for many years. They finally succeeded in creating the elixir of immortality, known as the Immortal Transformation Pill. It is said that if one consumes the Immortal Transformation Pill, one will live a long and healthy life, becoming no different from an immortal.
With the completion of the Immortal Transformation Pill, it was thought that those alchemists had achieved their goal and could leave the palace. However, what emerged from the palace were their corpses.
Everyone's smart enough to guess that Empress Yueyao was worried about the secret formula for the Immortal Transformation Pill being leaked, which is why she did this.
The saying "When the cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog is cooked" completely chilled the hearts of alchemists. As a result, over time, the number of alchemists in the Yueyao Kingdom gradually decreased and eventually disappeared.
However, the fact that the Yueyao royal family possessed the Immortal Transformation Pill spread from then on.
...
After listening, Jing Zhe clicked his tongue slightly, but was also somewhat curious: "The Empress, you—"
Before he could finish speaking, Jing Zhe was glared at fiercely by Murong Xi, who asked with some confusion, "What's wrong?"
"At this point, you still call me Empress?"
Murong Xi broke free from Jing Zhe's embrace, crossed her arms, and looked at Jing Zhe coldly.
Whether it's a man or a woman, when two people have become very close, they will take great care in how they address each other.
Moreover, this is true in every era. In the timeline that Jing Zhe traveled to, men and women could already call each other "husband" and "wife" when they first fell in love. Especially after breaking through the final barrier in their relationship, there were countless mushy and intimate terms of address.
Seeing how much Murong Xi cared, Jing Zhe wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he wanted to tease her, so he asked seriously, "Then what would you like me to call you?"
"I--"
Murong Xi realized her mistake as soon as she opened her mouth, rolled her eyes at Jing Zhe, and said in a sullen voice, "Do I have to teach you what to call me?"
"How about I call you Empress Sister too?"
Jing Zhe spoke with a smile, adopting Yu Xiangrong's tone.
This infuriated Murong Xi. She walked over and slapped him hard, then snorted coldly, "Who wants to be your sister? Don't you have enough sisters already? Even if you wanted to, I wouldn't!"
Since arriving in Jingzhou, Murong Xi has been constantly guarded against by Zhu Xinning and suffered repeated defeats. She not only fears Zhu Xinning, but also dislikes her from the bottom of her heart. Consequently, she also dislikes Jing Zhe's other sisters.
Jing Zhe pretended not to understand and then smiled, "But if we don't call her 'Empress Sister,' what should we call her? Perhaps we could wait a bit..."
As he spoke, Jing Zhe's eyes began to wander mischievously over Murong Xi's private parts. Murong Xi wasn't stupid; she understood exactly what he meant.
Jing Zhe not only gave a mischievous look, but also reached out his hand.
Already angry, she became even angrier. First, she slapped Jing Zhe's hand away, then reached for Jing Zhe's waist and used all her strength—
"hiss!"
Some skills women are born with, such as pinching people.
"You can try saying it again."
Murong Xi adopted the aura of an empress, appearing aloof and intimidating.
"I'm not going to say anything more, I'm not going to say anything more."
"Then do you still dare?"
As she spoke, Murong Xi tightened her grip even more, startling Jing Zhe into waving his hands and saying, "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare."
"..."
