Chapter 418: The Stunning Empress, Li Qinghuang
Chapter 418: The Stunning Empress, Li Qinghuang
At the edge of the bustling market, there were crowds of people and the atmosphere was noisy.
Baili Yan hid in the shadow of the street corner, his nails digging deep into his palms, almost making them bleed.
Her eyes were fixed on two figures walking side by side not far away—
There is no birch and the branches are sparse.
"Wuhua...you should have been mine!"
The possessiveness and hatred in Baili Yan's heart intertwined with each other, surging wildly, almost swallowing up his rationality.
Back then, when she had developed feelings for Wu Hua, she was so dismissive of him, thinking that Wu Hua was just an ordinary person with no accomplishments but some beauty.
So what if she kidnapped the person?
Unexpectedly...
Wu Hua is actually related to Zhan Ming Mountain.
She was forced to let the man go, and because of this incident, she was confined to her house for several years, and was regularly whipped with lightning every few days.
She hates!
Of the mere ripple that existed back then, nothing remains.
She just wanted to catch him and vent all the suffering she had endured over the years on Wu Hua!
Unfortunately, the plan carefully planned some time ago to "capture Rong Shu and force Wu Hua to submit" failed.
And that useless waste Yun Wuya would only make her wait for the opportunity!
"We can't wait any longer..." A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Baili Yan's eyes.
She took half a step out of the shadows, the spiritual energy in her body circulated rapidly, activating the secret technique.
however--
At this moment, a biting chill rose from the bottom of her heart without any warning!
Baili Yan's hand gestures for activating the secret technique suddenly froze in mid-air, and the condensed spiritual power dissipated in an instant.
The world in front of her eyes began to become blurry, and she completely lost consciousness before she even had time to feel shocked.
"..."
An unknown amount of time had passed, but when Baili Yan finally opened his heavy eyelids with difficulty, what came into his sight was a desolate wilderness.
She struggled to stand up, but her limbs were too heavy to move, and she couldn't feel even a trace of spiritual energy in her body.
"woke up?"
A cold and single female voice, yet with unquestionable majesty, sounded above her head.
This voice was like a basin of ice water, instantly extinguishing all of Baili Yan's confusion, leaving only the fear that penetrated deep into his bones.
She looked up suddenly—
A tall figure slowly walked towards her.
The woman was dressed simply, but her every move revealed the oppressive feeling that only comes from being in a high position for many years.
A pair of phoenix eyes, as deep as the abyss, as cold as ten thousand years of black ice.
There was not a trace of blood affection in the look he cast towards Baili Yan, only cold scrutiny and displeasure.
"Imperial...Imperial sister?!" Baili Yan's voice was dry and hoarse, with unconcealable fear in her voice.
The person before him was none other than the omnipotent Empress Jinghong, who sat high atop the Jinghong Dynasty's throne.
A clone of Baili Qinghuang...
"You left the dynasty without permission and used secret techniques privately, Baili Yan, do you know your crime?" Baili Qinghuang's voice was still calm, but every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting Baili Yan's heart.
Baili Yan's face turned pale, and her lips trembled, "Imperial Sister..."
She had never expected that her imperial sister would condescend to use a clone just to capture her back. The seriousness of the matter was far beyond her imagination.
"I saved your life from Leng Mingjing's men not to allow you to continue to act recklessly and unrepentantly. You have brought shame upon the Baili clan!"
The empress's clone took a step forward, and the invisible pressure instantly suffocated Baili Yan, and her whole body collapsed to the ground.
"Imperial sister! I..." Baili Yan finally found her voice, speaking with a strong sense of unwillingness, "I just want to take back what belongs to me! That Wu Hua planted the 'thread of love' in me, he should have been my slave! He..."
"shut up!"
"Your stuff? How stupid!"
"Who do you think you are? Are you worthy enough to covet Wu Hua from the Killing Mountain? He is..." A trace of disgust flashed in Baili Qinghuang's eyes.
Even though Baili Qinghuang knew full well that Baili Yan's current stupidity, brainlessness, and willful behavior were partly due to her deliberately nurturing him in order to eliminate this potential competitor for the throne...
But Baili Yan's stupidity was so deep that it kept pushing Baili Qinghuang's bottom line.
This time, Baili Yan was so bold that he actually escaped from the Jinghong Dynasty.
Baili Yan was unconvinced: "Imperial sister, I thought you should be able to understand me. Didn't you also have a crush on Leng Mingjing back then? She has clearly come to the palace as a guest. It would be easy for you to keep her..."
In the end, the imperial sister didn't help but ruin her plans...
Snapped!
Baili Yan was slapped.
"Shut up!"
Baili Qinghuang was so angry that he laughed.
This Baili Yan is really spoiled! His mind is full of love and romance!
She had no idea of the current predicament of the Jinghong Dynasty!
That "dilemma" can only be alleviated if Leng Mingjing comes to live permanently in the Jinghong Dynasty...
For this reason, Baili Qinghuang also sacrificed his own title of "Emperor's Husband", but still failed to impress Leng Mingjing.
"Baili Yan, have you forgotten that Leng Mingjing spared you on the condition that you could never leave the Jinghong Dynasty, let alone appear in front of Wu Hua? If you disobey him, you will die!"
……die?!
Baili Yan's eyes were filled with shock, and a bone-chilling chill suddenly arose in his heart.
"...No! Sister! I know I was wrong... I'll go back with you now..."
Whoosh!
A flame rose from Baili Qinghuang's hand. She had no expression on her face, as if she was executing a chirping sparrow.
The flame only touched a corner of Baili Yan's clothes, and in the blink of an eye, the whole person was burned into a "fire man"!
Even Baili Yan didn't have time to feel the pain of being burned by the flames before he turned into ashes and returned to dust.
"Not letting you die in pain is my last act of mercy to you."
Baili Qinghuang waved his sleeves.
A gust of wind blew by, and nothing was left where it was.
The person disappeared without a trace, as if he had never appeared.
"..."
In the distant horizon, at the foot of Zhanming Mountain, Leng Mingjing rarely left Xianzhu Peak and stood in front of the mountain gate.
His eyes were calm, gazing into the distance.
"As agreed, I have taken action to clean up the mess." A voice came.
Leng Mingjing's eyes flashed. "You actually came here in person? Can you leave Jinghong Territory?"
"It's just a clone..." The woman sighed, diluting the coldness in her tone.
"Mingjing, my promise from that year still stands."
Leng Mingjing lowered his eyes: "Zhanming Mountain needs me more."
"With Your Majesty here in Jinghong Territory, no demons or monsters can escape. There's no need for me to guard it."
The foundation of the three great dynasties were all divine artifacts.
The Kamikaze Dynasty had the Sun Chaser Bow.
The Haixi Dynasty has the Canglan Ji.
The Jinghong Dynasty has the Nirvana Divine Fire.
But compared to the national treasures of the previous two dynasties, the Nirvana Fire is invisible and colorless, and more difficult to control.
If the user wants to control the Nirvana Divine Fire, in addition to obtaining the recognition of the "divine artifact", he also needs to use his own body as a container to contain the Nirvana Divine Fire.
The contemporary master of the Nirvana Divine Fire is the stunning female emperor Baili Qinghuang.
The three great dynasties all needed divine artifacts to guard them.
The empress, who temporarily became the container of the Nirvana Divine Fire, would naturally be unable to leave the Jinghong Realm for the rest of her life.
If... the Jinghong Dynasty could have one more divine artifact to guard it, the empress's burden would be greatly relieved.
Unfortunately……
"Well, now that this matter is over, I will leave."
"Although Wu Hua's 'thread of love' is unsolvable, as long as he can one day transcend the mortal world and become an immortal, and achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven, the 'thread of love' will naturally disappear. You don't have to worry."
"..."
The wind blows and there is no one around.
Leng Mingjing turned around and walked back to Xianzhu Peak step by step...
Soaring.
Just two words.
Easier said than done
…Since the end of the ancient times, no one in the world has been able to ascend.
