Winter goes and spring comes, and all things revive.
On the high city tower stood a figure in cherry-red, blood-red, with long, ink-black hair swaying with the hem of her skirt, like fire flying.
The people below the city looked up at her, feeling that she was both a fairy and a demon. Even if she did nothing, even if she was now a prisoner, she would still be looked up to.
This is Mo Yunzhao, the extraordinary woman who helped Emperor Qingtian conquer four kingdoms and unify the world.
Mo Bilian turned her head to look at her, feeling that she, as the empress, had been outshone.
But she quickly smiled, raising her hand to gently stroke her magnificent phoenix robe, her eyes filled with arrogance.
"Third sister, your one-year freedom period is up. I advise you to obediently hand over the Soul-Stabilizing Pearl, so that I can let you die quickly and leave you with a complete corpse."
Her tone was one of grace and charity.
Mo Yunzhao turned around, and on her face was... no, a mask that looked like a hideous demon.
Seeing her mask, and then looking down at the various obscene words like "cheap" and "lewd" written on the back of her hand.
Mo Bilian laughed even harder, "Otherwise, it's worse than death. You know my methods, like your face, your hands, and the death of my eldest sister... I think you've enjoyed it all over the past ten years."
There are too many to count.
Mo Yunzhao raised her hand to tuck a strand of hair that was sticking to her face behind her ear, and looked up at her with a smile, "Second cousin, do you know why I still chose to live for another year after learning the whole truth?"
"Isn't it just about avenging those who died for you?"
Mo Bilian looked up at her with a mocking smile: "Third sister, one should know one's place. You are no longer the strongest person in the Crimson Sky Continent. You are just a useless person without spiritual power!"
How can someone who can barely protect himself and save himself possibly seek revenge?
That's wishful thinking!
At this moment, Emperor Ling Yongnian led everyone, step by step, to the city wall.
He looked up at Mo Yunzhao and said gently, "Ah Zhao, as long as you hand over the Soul-Stabilizing Pearl, I will posthumously confer upon you the title of Consort, and have my surname and name written on your tombstone."
That look in his eyes revealed an undisguised disgust.
Mo Yunzhao lowered his eyes and smiled: "For ten years, I fought for you in the Three Kingdoms; I found the world's greatest treasures for you; for you, I suffered betrayal and loss of family and friends..."
Her eyes sparkled, and she smiled, possessing a captivating beauty even with a menacing mask.
Ling Yongnian interrupted her impatiently, "You did all this willingly, it's your shameless love that's paramount, it's your shameless willingness to give everything for me, it's your desire to be my wife until death, it's you who's shameless! It's you who's shameless!"
Mo Yunzhao raised her head, her blood-red eyes, as bright as jewels, sweeping over the crowd. All the people she hated and deserving to die were present.
Seeing this, she raised her eyes and laughed out loud, tears falling with the wind.
"Ling Yongnian, I did all this for you only because ten years ago you took his place to save my life. You impersonated him, lied to me about liking you, and tricked me into doing all this for you. Otherwise..."
She raised her eyes and looked down at Ling Yongnian with disdain. "Ten years ago, when you were still the Third Prince, you were less than a dog in my eyes!"
It was Ling Yongnian who impersonated that person to repay her for saving her life.
It was her second uncle's family who sowed discord between her and Mo Yunlan, and it was Mo Bilian who took the place of her eldest sister Mo Yunlan in doing everything for her.
She repaid the wrong favor, and she fell in love with the wrong person.
Otherwise, how could she have sacrificed so much for them!
