The embroidered clothing fluttered as the figure suddenly vanished.
...
...
Governnt office.
Inner residence, bedroom.
The embroidered bed was in disarray, the air filled with a complex scent, both the rich fragrance of blooming osmanthus and a cold, refreshing sea breeze.
Chen Mo held the Seven Emotions Whip in his hand, looking at the two charming figures before him, and couldn't help but swallow.
"Seems like we played a bit too hard..."
The Empress was curled up in a ball, with dried tear stains at the corners of her eyes, faint red whip marks visible on her white, full moon-like skin.
Chen Mo swore to the heavens he didn't use much force, but the Empress's skin was simply too delicate, making it seem as though it had been damaged.
In fact, it was indeed damaged...
"You damn little thief, wicked little thief, you only know how to bully people. I won't ever talk to you again!" The Empress sobbed quietly, her voice tinged with a hint of a cry, her body occasionally shuddering, yet to recover from the collapse-like experience.
In contrast, Consort Yu was much calr in her deanor.
Her cold and beautiful face showed no expression, her eyes calm as still water, but the crimson spreading from her earlobes to her collarbone betrayed her.
Even facing the double assault of the red silk and the Seven Emotions Whip, hovering on the edge of consciousness, Her Majesty the Consort still stubbornly held on.
In contrast, the Empress Baby, with just one strike, yielded, tearfully admitting, "I was wrong."
The two ford a stark contrast.
"Empress..."
Chen Mo felt a little uneasy under those azure eyes.
He originally wanted to use this opportunity to resolve the estrangent between the two, but forgot that with the Empress's character, how could she easily admit defeat?
Especially in front of the Empress...
"Is it enough? Can you untie now?" Yu Youhan said indifferently.
"Of... of course."
Chen Mo dared not act recklessly any longer, putting away the whip and started earnestly searching for the knots.
Yu Youhan closed her eyes slightly, biting her lip, refusing to make a sound.
Master Chen worked for a long ti and finally untangled the red silk, which turned into dust and vanished the mont it fell off.
Hoo—
A sudden gale arose, the curtains billowing.
A surge of Primordial Qi poured into her body, her energy rapidly climbing, and her cultivation fully restored.
Yu Youhan glanced at the Empress, her tone cold as she said, "Though I don't know what bewitching potion you gave Chen Mo, since he is so protective of you, I won't interfere any further."
"But there's one thing you must rember..."
"What I give you is yours, what I don't give, you cannot take."
"You're right, I indeed can't kill you, but if you dare to overstep, I will obliterate everything around you: Jinyun, the Crown Prince, Chu Yanli... as long as they have the slightest connection to you, I will make them disappear from this world."
"You dare!"
The Empress trembled with anger.
"If you don't believe it, try it." Yu Youhan said no more, broke through the void, and disappeared.
The Empress's chest heaved, her delicate hand clenched tightly, her face a bit pale.
"Your Highness, don't worry. Her Majesty the Consort is always tough on the outside and soft on the inside. She should be just trying to scare you, she wouldn't really do such a thing," Chen Mo comforted.
"Soft-hearted?" The Empress shook her head with a cold smile, "I'm afraid only you in this world think so."
Because of Chen Mo's existence, her relationship with Yu Youhan had beco delicate, even leading to mutual spanking.
But this didn't an they had truly beco sisters; the Empress knew very well what kind of person the other was.
"Back then, to use the Sect's power for herself, she personally acted, making Qing Province run red with blood. She wiped out two top sects alone, her hands stained with countless blood."
"Later, to seize power from , she attacked the court officials, resorting to kidnapping, assassination, torture for confession... Compared to her, the thods of the Sky Scale Guard were child's play!"
"At that ti, the entire Capital City was shrouded in her shadow, the re na 'Consort Yu' had beco a taboo, as no one knew if they might be the next target!"
"Such a person, and you say she's soft-hearted?"
The Empress's tone was heavy, a shadow flickered in her eyes.
"But her Majesty the Consort also annihilated countless mbers of the Demon Clan in the Desolate Domain, personally slaying the Demon Lord, indirectly saving the people of Jiu Zhou, didn't she?" Chen Mo still attempted to defend her.
"So you still don't understand?"
"To her, be it human or demon, there is no difference. They're all just ants she can easily crush."
The Empress took a deep breath and said, "As long as you block her path, there's only one outco... Yu Youhan has never changed; it's just that she used to want Da Yuan's Destiny, and now she wants you instead."
Chen Mo fell into silence for a mont.
The Empress wasn't wrong. Unlike stories where the main villain is eventually redeed, in the original plot of "Unmatched Immortal," Yu Youhan's character remained consistent.
There was no tragic childhood, no unavoidable plight.
She was just such a person.
Her Dao Heart was as firm as iron, her ans were ruthless and unfeeling, almost slaughtering the entire "Unmatched Immortal" story!
Even with Chen Mo, the protagonist he controlled, standing at the pinnacle of the immortal path, she was still unattainable, requiring cheats to contend with her.
It seed even the production team didn't know how to balance her stats.
"So now you should understand, right? Yu Youhan is a cold-blooded demon without feelings, you'd better stay away from her..."
"Your Highness is wrong."
Before the Empress could finish speaking, Chen Mo interrupted her.
He smiled with a corner of his mouth lifted and said, "The Empress may not be considered a good person, but her feelings are sincere and pure, without any falseness towards , and that's enough."
