Feng Xun woke up to find himself no longer in the City Lord’s Mansion.
Before his eyes were layers of brightly colored veils, red and green, shimring in all colors.
Beneath him lay a vast, round bed, its luxurious carvings and pear wood beams enchanting.
The bed was scattered with colorful petals, amidst which a seductive fragrance lingered in the air.
It was evident that this place belonged to a woman.
A jabbing pain at his temples, Feng Xun’s consciousness stirred; re monts ago he had been in the City Lord’s Mansion and then saved a butterfly...
"You’re awake?" A woman’s sigh-like voice floated gently from nearby.
A woman, nearly naked, approached him.
Her figure was flawless, alluring in appearance, watching Feng Xun with eyes brimming with emotion.
Seeing her made Feng Xun’s eyelids twitch heavily.
"Xiaodie!"
"I am not Xiaodie, my real na is Die i. This is my Butterfly Tomb, no one but you has ever co here."
Die i gazed intently at Feng Xun’s face, her eyes glinting with infatuation.
The more she looked at Feng Xun, the more beautiful he seed to her.
Unlike other Earth Evil Monarchs, Die i, due to her past as a human, had exceptionally high standards. Only top-grade handso n would catch her eye.
And among the n she had t over the years, Feng Xun was her favorite.
"What have you brought here for?" Feng Xun furrowed his brows.
"I like you. I brought you here naturally to make you my man," Die i breathed softly, her gaze fixed on Feng Xun’s near-perfect lips, feeling her mouth go dry.
"Feng Xun, look into my eyes and agree, and I will treat you well. I have never truly liked a man before. As long as you are willing to stay with , I will give you everything you desire."
Two beautiful faces drew closer to each other.
Die i was confident in her beauty; otherwise, she would not have been brought to the Earth Evil Prison by that Earth Evil Monarch back in the day.
Just now, in her sche to capture Feng Xun, she had made him inhale a poisonous powder from her wings.
This powder had the ability to bewilder the mind, and whether it was a person or an Earth Evil, once inhaled, it would cause hallucinations.
The Mu Gui Earth Evil Monarch, who had been frightened to death previously, had died because he breathed in so of this powder and was scared to death by the illusions it created.
Amid her amorous words, Feng Xun’s eyes clouded over with confusion.
He stared blankly at Die i’s face.
Her fiery red lips were about to press against his.
With a powerful jolt, Feng Xun pushed her aside.
"I must have told you not to co near ," Feng Xun said, disgust flickering across his face, which pained Die i.
"Feng Xun, how dare you rebuff my kindness. You are the first to defy ! Are you not afraid that I will kill you!" Die i snapped angrily, then suddenly flung aside the colorful veils before her.
Behind the vibrant veils lay countless white bones.
They were skeletal remains of humans, their essence blood long since drained dry by Die i.
"In this world, there really isn’t anyone whom I, the Earth Evil Lord, should fear. My temper is not as good as Feng Xun’s. You’ve dragged to this godforsaken place, and upon my return, I’ll still have to explain to my Little Yueyue—a headache even to think about."
The man’s voice was piercing as the cold phoenix.
Die i’s pupils shrank, realizing sothing was amiss.
Feng Xun still looked like Feng Xun, so handso, but Die i suddenly felt that he was entirely different, his gaze terrifyingly dreadful.
"You, you’re not Feng Xun, you are..."
The more Die i spoke, the more panicked she beca, her voice shifting in tone due to fear, tainted with the sound of crying.
She had been in the Earth Evil Hall for so many years and had never feared anyone so much—not even when faced with the Earth Evil Monarch who had captured her.
No wonder her poison powder had no effect on him.
Wu Zhong, visibly impatient, was ready to kill Die i, a re Earth Evil creature daring to provoke him.
At that mont, he felt a slight movent from the Phoenix Token in his arms, that feeling was...
The entire Butterfly Tomb shook violently as if sothing had smashed into it, and right after, Ye Lingyue charged in.
She did not co alone; with her were the five captive Earth Evil Monarchs.
"Die i Monarch, hope you’re unhard. Where have you taken my man?"
Upon seeing Ye Lingyue, Die i’s complexion changed drastically, she glanced at Wu Zhong and suddenly realized that she had been played by Ye Lingyue from start to end.
Wu Zhong also realized that he had been outmaneuvered.
Recently, the tacit understanding between Feng Xun and Wu Zhong had indeed beco increasingly smooth.
Feng Xun knew how to take advantage of Wu Zhong, delegating the trouble to him at the first sign of such predicants.
Fortunately, Ye Lingyue arrived just in ti.
Otherwise, had she been a step later, Wu Zhong might have already killed Die i, which would have made explanations troubleso.
"Feng Xun, are you alright?" Ye Lingyue was relieved to see that Feng Xun was unhard.
"Ling Yue, it’s good that you’re here." In just an instant, Feng Xun reverted back to his frail and sickly appearance, as if a gust of wind could knock him over.
Die i’s expression was not good, partially because she hadn’t recovered from Feng Xun’s drastic change of face.
On the other hand, she also realized that she had been duped by Ye Lingyue.
This woman, perhaps never truly trusted her from the mont of the so-called "rescue."
"When did you know that I am the Die i Monarch from the thirty-sixth layer of Earth Evil Prison?" Die i asked reluctantly.
"Die i Monarch, female, unknown origins, adept in illusion techniques, prefers to appear in the form of butterflies and young girls, fearless against blades and disappearing without a trace. Unless the original body is killed, as long as a single clone survives, there will be a revival."
Ye Lingyue took out a sheet of paper, these were the details collected by the Bone Evil Monarch.
In the records about the Die i Monarch, the Bone Evil Monarch also specifically noted that Die i Monarch has one major predilection: she is fond of handso n and will abduct them. After playing with them, she would suck out their essence blood.
"I admit, you didn’t have a whiff of Earth Evil on you, and your appearance was very much human. But there’s one thing, as a human, one has a shadow, but your disguised Wang Xiaodie, had no shadow." That’s why since the mont she "rescued" "Wang Xiaodie," Ye Lingyue had realized she was the Die i Monarch.
"You do have so skill, but do you think that by finding , you can erase ?"
Suddenly, Die i burst into boisterous laughter, her body dissolving into countless Dead Butterflies.
The number was so vast that even if Ye Lingyue and the five Earth Evil Monarchs joined forces, it would be difficult to kill them all at the sa ti.
As long as a single Dead Butterfly escaped, Die i would be resurrected.
