She looked towards the bamboo forest.
Because it is the Spring Equinox, the bamboo leaves are lush and green, and the breeze makes a rustling sound.
At night, green lights flicker among the bamboo forest, which are fireflies flying.
Their light is faint and soft, but it lights up the entire bamboo forest.
Yan An stretched out his right hand and gently stroked Lu Jingzhi's cheek, feeling his warmth and softness.
Her fingers moved slowly, gently touching his eyebrows, nose, thin lips...
"Your Majesty the Empress."
Suddenly, a voice broke the silence.
Yan An looked over when he heard the voice and saw Meng Zan striding towards him with an anxious look on his face.
He walked closer and saw Lu Jingzhi resting his head on her legs. He was also shocked and was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.
"Is there anything you need from me?" Yan An asked calmly.
Meng Zan hesitated for a moment, then finally said, "Lady Empress, when will we return to the Demon Realm?"
"I can't go back for now."
Hearing this, Meng Zan's face became solemn.
He frowned tightly, and a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.
He glanced at Lu Jingzhi, then turned back to look at Yan An. "The Empress, for the sake of this young master of the Lu family, has she completely disregarded the demon race?"
"What? Are you questioning this emperor?"
Yan An's calm expression darkened a little, and terrifying demonic energy and blood emanated from her body, bringing with it endless pressure that was suffocating.
[Void Realm!] Feeling this powerful aura, Meng Zan was startled and his body trembled involuntarily.
He widened his eyes and looked at Yan An in disbelief.
He then quickly released his demonic energy to resist, but the force came like an overwhelming force, making him feel very uncomfortable.
He gritted his teeth, trying to hold on, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes, "Lady Empress, is he more important than the demon race?"
Yan An's expression grew increasingly gloomy, his voice as cold as a gust of wind, "Why? Do you want me to rush back? Let Black Dragon get the key and inherit the throne smoothly?"
"That's not what I meant..." Meng Zan explained hurriedly.
"Then what do you mean? Do you want me to go back now and lead my people to fight the Black Dragon Evil Soul Clan to the death?"
"In the end, they died in vain? The whole army was wiped out?"
Meng Zan lowered his head, remained silent for a moment, then raised his head stubbornly, "But Lady Empress, is it any use for us to stay in this small mortal realm?"
Yan An frowned slightly, seeming a little impatient.
"You think I don't know what you're thinking? But this is not the right time yet."
Meng Zan asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, why are you still waiting? We've been here for too long."
Yan An took a deep breath and looked at the sleeping Lu Jingzhi, "I'm waiting for him to grow up. Only when he becomes strong enough can he lead us to take back the demon clan."
"Just him?"
"With this little human?"
Yan An nodded, his tone full of determination, "Yes, Meng Zan, believe me, and believe him too."
"You will definitely not let me or us down."
If it were in the past, I would naturally not be so confident, but with the blessing of bloodline and elemental power, it is completely different.
Meng Zan was silent for a long time. He glanced at the sleeping Lu Jingzhi and exhaled, "I understand, Your Majesty."
He stood up, knelt down to greet Yan An, and left the bamboo forest.
Yan An looked down at Lu Jingzhi's sleeping face and said, "You won't let me down, will you?"
【My husband.】
The next day——
The chirping of birds filled his ears. He frowned slightly and turned over.
With a snap
“Ouch!”
Lu Jingzhi suddenly opened his eyes and covered his butt with his right hand.
"Why...why am I sleeping here?"
The sound of sharp weapons cutting through the air rang in my ears.
When he looked over, he saw Yan An, dressed in white, waving his phoenix-patterned sword in the bamboo forest.
Yan An's beautiful figure danced in the forest. When the wind blew, bamboo leaves fell from the branches, perfectly setting off her delicate and beautiful flower.
Lu Jingzhi sat on a stone chair and watched, becoming fascinated.
