Rebirth: The Blood Demon Empress Chapter 73 Sweet and Warm

  The room has four corners standing with Han white jade pillars, the surrounding walls are all made of white stone bricks, golden carved orchids blooming between the white stones, green silk curtains fluttering in the wind. In this ten-meter-high building, only two words can be felt, that is "luxury", not ordinary luxury.

  A magnificent underground palace, with high-hanging night pearls illuminating the place as bright as daylight, radiating in all directions.

  "Your Highness, the assassination attempt has failed." A figure clad in black stood tightly wrapped, their long shadow cast on the golden screen, speaking with utmost respect to the person behind the beaded curtain.

  The Blood King's methods were too cruel, the people he sent out, almost none of them had a complete corpse, the blood-soaked snow on the ground, the bloody smell was thick and heavy, the beasts that smelled the scent went to feast crazily without any effort.

  "A bunch of trash." Accompanied by a roar, a teacup leaped over the screen and smashed into the black-clad man's forehead.

  The accuracy of her throwing position is astonishing, making one raise an eyebrow. It seems she often throws cups, or else how could she hit them with such precision every time?

  Ce Qinghen stood still, not moving until the cup hit his forehead with a loud crash and shattered on the ground. Only then did he coldly speak: "None of the people Ming Jing took away were left alive, not even their corpses were intact, none of them were complete. The subordinate only found that big knife of his which was broken into several segments."

  He's not a fool, and with a closer look, it's clear that Ming Jing was killed directly by being torn apart, such a thick internal force, even if the Blood King had been practicing martial arts since birth, he wouldn't have possessed such powerful internal force.

  "The Blood King is not a simple character, and he has helpers, it's just that there's no way to investigate who is helping him. If they are his subordinates, then wanting to take his life would be even more difficult." Zha Qinghen saw the person behind the bead curtain hadn't spoken up, only tightly furrowed his brow, and his voice was even colder by a few degrees.

  He really wants to meet Blood King in person and have a fight with him.

  The strong man wants a one-on-one showdown with another strong man, he wants to see just how formidable the Blood King really is.

  "How did you determine that he has a formidable helper by his side." The gloomy voice was hard to conceal the anger, and the message that came back said that only Baili Chunxuan went to Shengfeng Temple alone, which was the assassination she had carefully arranged.

  Surrounded layer by layer, he actually let him kill all her people and escape.

  It's even more infuriating now that someone has come out to help her.

  "That person used a long-lost sound attack secret technique from the Jianghu, almost destroying the entire forest. Isn't that enough to show that he's a very formidable helper?" A hint of disdain flashed in Qing's eyes, but if it weren't for..., how could he bear to be controlled by her?

  If he had the chance, the person he most wanted to kill was the woman sitting behind the screen.

  "What's the Sound Attack Secret?" The woman's voice rose to a high pitch, despite her efforts to disguise it, that old and powerful aura still couldn't be concealed. Her long fingers dug deep into her thigh, coldly saying: "Do you know what level of cultivation he has reached?"

  It is said that using the Sound Attack Secret Technique can control a person's mind and kill them without leaving any trace.

  If there really was such a master beside Baili Chunyuan, wouldn't it be even more difficult for her to make a move on him?

  "With such immense killing power, it's unknown what level it can reach. The Sound Attack, everyone in the Jianghu wants to get their hands on it, but no one knows how many layers of secrets it holds, or what kind of realm it will bring after mastering it." Zhan Qing's eyes, cast downward, were filled with curiosity towards the Sound Attack secret technique. If he could obtain it, he wouldn't worry about being unable to kill that woman inside.

  "Never mind, since even you are not clear about it, how can I blame you for not doing things well? Hurry up and investigate who is helping Baili Chuanxuan, temporarily stop the assassination attempt on him, pay attention to his every move, and report back to me immediately." A purple robe draped down, setting off the Empress Dowager's already dark expression, her tightly clenched fists a testament to the anger suppressed in her chest.

  This underground palace was established by her own hands and is the largest base for cultivating her own power.

  But now, the emperor is forcing her to make a choice between her own daughter and power, whether she wants her daughter or power.

  The Emperor has truly made up his mind, without any room for turning back. If she insists on holding onto the power in her hands, the Emperor will insist on forcing her to kill her own biological daughter.

  Once she really chose, it would be equivalent to pushing her own biological son further away, and the emperor would never be able to take care of their mother-son relationship again.

  Rights and desires are what she has yearned for all her life, wanting to put them down but unable to bear parting with them.

  She used to care about love, but she didn't get it, so she chose power.

  As a result, she still pushed her intended love to a farther place.

  Before the emperor's death, she was not allowed to approach him for a period of time. Unfortunately, by that time, he had already lost his ability to do so.

  Otherwise, she would not have supported her own son as emperor and become a high-ranking empress dowager herself.

  "Yes." Ce Qinghen nodded and turned around decisively, "Apart from Her Majesty the Empress Dowager, there were three groups of people who ambushed and killed Blood King Baili Chuanxun on that road. The final result was that they all perished."

  Judging from the clues he could find on the scene, Baili Chunxuan was not injured at all, but rather easily overcame all obstacles.

  His means were so sharp that he was born with admiration.

  Even he, who was confident in his own abilities, couldn't guarantee that he could completely eliminate the endless stream of assassins and emerge unscathed.

  The traces of fighting are enough to explain a problem. Except for the first murder scene, there were only signs of one person fighting back at the other three scenes, which means that all those people died at the hands of Baili Chunxuan.

  The mysterious man who used Sound Blast didn't make a move in the next three battles, instead standing by and watching.

  What a terrifying fighting power, the more I imagine it, the more my blood surges with excitement, yearning to engage in battle with Baili Chunyuan.

  A moment of superiority and inferiority can be considered a relief for him.

  "What?" The Empress Dowager exclaimed, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

  The only response to her was the sound of no one speaking, and the heavy stone gate closing. Baili Shuo, it's a pity for the Ai family, you shouldn't have been spared back then.

  During the journey of escorting Baili Chunyuan, who was still in his infancy, to Yin Yue City, she sent assassins to take his life seven times, each time ending in failure.

  Every time he was about to succeed, someone would appear and save him, killing all the people she had sent. The mysterious person had been searching for nearly twenty years, but still didn't have a single clue.

  Just as she was about to continue sending people to kill him, the Emperor held a sword to his own neck and threatened her. If she refused to spare Baili Chunxuan, he would die in front of her. He said that he was just a small child, living a hard life in a cold place with no one to care for him, and his life and death were up to heaven, so he wouldn't bother to intervene. He also asked her to give him a chance to live.

  At that time, giving him a thread of life became her fatal blow, and also made her worry about the King of Chu.

  It's better to say that the King of Chu is not dead or alive, but rather his whereabouts are unknown, and he may suddenly appear at any time.

  The Chu Wang Fu has been uninhabited for nearly twenty years, but in the past twenty years, no one dared to go to the Chu Wang Fu to make trouble, and it still looks like it did twenty years ago, as if someone had always lived inside.

  The people love and respect the King of Chu, if you want to move the palace of the King of Chu, you still have to ask whether the people of the world agree or disagree.

  "Empress Dowager, the Emperor is about to arrive at the Yongshou Palace. You..." Qin's humble voice sounded softly outside another stone gate.

  She knew many secrets, but she was also very afraid of the Empress Dowager. Her life was in the hands of the Empress Dowager, and with just a flick of her finger, she would be dead.

  In fact, she doesn't even need to lift a finger, because she likes to use poison to control them and make them listen to her orders. As soon as they show any disobedience, they will immediately die with their intestines bursting out of their belly.

  "I understand." She stood up, her eyes wide open as she gazed at her magnificent underground palace, where she was the true queen and everyone had to obey her commands, no one dared to disobey her.

  Your Majesty, must you really force me to make a choice?

  The mother-son bond between you and me, is it really going to end like this?

  "Yes." Qin's aunt stood quietly there, her head bowed down, not looking at things she shouldn't look at, not saying things she shouldn't say, and not asking questions she shouldn't ask. It had long been the entirety of her life.

  The emperor's intention was clear to her, and she also understood that if she offended the empress dowager at this time, her life would be over.

  "Let's go, follow me to see the Emperor." With heavy footsteps, the Empress Dowager's face was exceptionally gloomy, she had never let go of what she wanted.

  She is just her own daughter, what's the point of abandoning her?

  Before she had a chance to fight back, get rid of her and everything will be calm.

  "Yes."

  The corner of her eye caught the Empress Dowager's sharp eyes flashing with cruelty, and even she couldn't help but tremble all over. She knew that every time she made a ruthless decision, the Empress Dowager's eyes would be like that.

  Even a ferocious tiger will not eat its own cub, but Empress Dowager...

  Holding the Empress Dowager's hand, Qin Ayi tried her best to calm herself down. She couldn't let the Empress Dowager discover her fear and trepidation, otherwise, she would really not see tomorrow's sun.

  、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、

  The next morning, after a whole night of heavy snowfall, the sky was no longer gloomy and had cleared up.

  The winter sun is always warmer than usual, without a hint of cold wind, but rather a clear and fine weather, exceptionally suitable for going out to enjoy the snow.

  Baili Chenyuan's figure was swiftly shuttling through the forest, with several different kinds of fruit wrapped in his long robe. The bright colors looked especially appetizing on a winter day, making one's mouth water.

  "Xiao Yue'er, you're awake." The soft footsteps had just entered the cave they discovered unintentionally last night when Baili Chenyuan saw Leng Ziyue open her bright and clear eyes, looking at him with some confusion.

  Leng Xueyu looked at Baili Chenyuan again, her long eyelashes slightly lifted, and blinked in confusion, asking: "How did you get into my room?"

  "Your... room?" Ba Li Chen Yun was taken aback for a moment, and then almost burst out laughing. It turned out that his little Yue Er looked so adorable after just waking up from sleep, making him want to rush over and give her a big kiss.

  She took out the fresh fruits from her bosom one by one and placed them on a clean stone, her slender fingers pointing to the mountain cave where they had taken shelter from the heavy snow last night, the smile at the corner of her mouth was so obvious.

  With a dazed gaze, she followed Baili Changyun's finger and looked around one by one. Leng Xueyao shuddered all over, completely awake now. She really didn't remember when her room had changed into the style of a mountain cave.

  An arc-shaped cave, empty inside, bare and desolate, with only the entrance covered by dense vines, blocking out even a hint of cold wind.

  Inside was burning firewood, and yet it didn't feel cold at all.

  Memories returned to last night after solving those assassins, Baili Chuanxiao originally wanted to bring her back to the imperial city as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, they encountered three groups of assassins who wanted to take his life and even declared that they would not leave him with a complete corpse.

  Xiao De Xie Mei's Ba Li Chen Yuan gently shielded her behind him, softly telling her that if she was afraid, just close her eyes and wait for a moment, he would take care of all the black-clothed assassins in front of them; if not, then open her eyes wide and watch how he would once again perform a magnificent painting of blood flowers flying in the sky for her.

  At that moment, Leng Xue didn't hesitate at all. The Blood Wei had already been unsheathed, and she was so eager to stand together with him against their enemy.

  "Xiao Yue'er, I've said it before, I'll protect you, and I can do it. When I really can't hold on anymore, you can step in to help me. Their blood is too filthy, don't tarnish the Blood Wei." Baili Chenyuan protected her, gazing gently into her eyes, which were filled with sincerity and deep emotions.

  That was the first time, Blood Wei came out of its scabbard without seeing blood.

  Deep and enchanting ink pupils, gradually transforming into a pair of bloodshot eyes that are utterly captivating. Even the finest blood jade cannot compare to the beauty of his eyes, as if blood is surging within them, seeming to draw one's very soul into their depths.

  Blood splattered everywhere, every drop melting into the increasingly thick snow, dyeing the white snow blood red, emitting a cool and seductive flavor that tempts people's hearts.

  They say when red snow flies in June, there must be unjust deaths.

  Leng Xueyu thought that the bloody scene Bai Li Chenyuan let her appreciate was the most magnificent and tragic in the world.

  Under the bright moon, the cold and clear moonlight shone on the snowflakes stained with fresh blood, crystal clear and transparent, so beautiful that it was beyond description. She couldn't use language to describe that scene, only that her heart could never calm down again.

  Underfoot tramples stained with blood snow, smelly? Nauseating? Afraid?

  No, she didn't feel scared at all, but rather a kind of indescribable happiness.

  Blood was like a part of her body, inseparable from it.

  No bloodshed, no joy, perhaps it refers to such a feeling.

  "Xiao Yue, is there a flower on my face? Staring at me for so long like that, hehe." Baili Chenyuan was speechless, walking up to her and rubbing his palms together before reaching out to touch her delicate cheek, as if afraid she would catch a chill.

  She is his treasure and needs to be taken care of carefully.

  "I wasn't spacing out." She turned her face away, refusing to acknowledge that she had just been lost in thought over everything he had brought to her.

  "Xiao Yue, are you afraid of me?" His hands had been stained with the blood of too many people, and what he regretted most was that last night, in front of her, he had killed everyone so brutally.

  Unfathomable blinked, and Leng Xueyu stretched out her hand to grasp the large hand he had placed on her face, asking in return: "Why should I be afraid? Such a bloody romance, I like it very much."

  She's not a delicate little girl, she likes blood, and has been very unique for a long time.

  Murder doesn't always splatter blood, but somehow red can be splattered with an artistic touch, which is what she wants to study.

  "Hehe, my little Yue'er is really good." The black gemstone-like eyes flashed with a moment of astonishment, unsure if he had misseen it, but his little Yue'er surprisingly enjoyed that kind of scene.

  She swallowed hard, not disappointing him as the kind of woman he liked, different from others.

  "Who is your Xiaoyuer? I am me." Shameless stinky man.

  "Isn't it you?"

  "I am not."

  "That's you."

  "Too lazy to argue with you." Leng Ziyue rubbed her belly, she was so hungry.

  "I'm starving, here." He presented the food he had searched for nearly two hours with a proud expression, looking like a child waiting to be praised.

  Pure and lovely.

  "What a beautiful fruit, where did you find it? Everywhere is covered with snow, where can I still find such fruits?" Leng Ziyue looked at Baili Chunxuan's black eyes without reaching out to take it.

  "Shengfeng Temple is located on the top of Guangwu Mountain, and on the halfway up the mountain, there is a region that never has snow all year round. Many fruit trees grow there, and I picked some from there." Baili Chenyuan took out a green fruit the size of his fist, carefully wiped it clean with his clothes, and then put it into Leng Zixiao's palm.

  Guangwu Mountain, even if he comes and goes quickly, it'll take at least three or four hours. Even if this guy's lightness skills are excellent, there's no need to show off like that! The fruits on the half-mountain waist are very rare, and he picked a whole bunch in one go, his eyes twitching uncontrollably. His moves are indeed not ordinary.

  It is said that different types of these fruits have different effects, either nourishing this or nourishing that, but the terrain in that place is treacherous and ordinary people can't get there at all.

  This guy who doesn't know when to stop is really cheap.

  "Xiaoyuer, eat quickly." After fighting all night, Baili Chenyuan was already hungry. If he could hunt for game in this area, he wouldn't have run so far to pick fruit to eat.

  "You ran so far to do what, and there's still...". Leng Ziyue's words hadn't finished leaving her mouth when a small peach was stuffed into it, and the rest of her sentence could only be swallowed down, her cheeks puffing out in anger.

  "Just consider it exercise, I'm starving to death, you must be even hungrier, eat obediently." Red, yellow, green, purple, as long as they looked good and were nutritious, Baili Chunxuan would wipe them clean on his own body before putting them into Leng Xueyan's arms, while he himself just ate casually.

  His body has been special since childhood, even if he doesn't eat for a long time, as long as he sleeps, he can get by.

  "Why aren't you eating?" She's not a pig, how can she eat that much, and she tossed the fruit back into his arms.

  One comes and goes, two young naive friends, obviously hoping the other would eat more, yet saying nothing on the surface, resorting to being unreasonable instead.

  "A hundred miles of deep and serene waters."

  Her hands went numb and Leng Xueyu couldn't help but let out a loud cry.

  "Xiao Yue, be gentle." With a slump of her shoulders, Baili Chun's big eyes were filled with grievance, "I just hope you eat more, I'm already full."

  "I, uh, that, you should eat more too." After saying this with a twisted expression, Leng Ziyue was so angry she could have smashed her head to death. Her face turned red with rage - wasn't it just about telling him to eat something, why make such a big deal out of it?

  Taking big bites of the pear in her hand, she lowered her head, hiding her rosy cheeks.

  "Then I'll eat." Baili Chenyuan laughed heartily, but fortunately, the baby was too busy to notice her embarrassed expression, happily eating fruit with a big smile.

  It's not easy for him, his little Yu'er has finally taken another step closer to him.

  "Hmm." She responded in a low voice, and Han Xueye lifted the two cloaks on her body. She remembered that she had only worn her red cloak to sleep, and at first glance, she knew whose black one was on top.

  His meticulousness moved her.

  "Xiaoyue, it's sunny outside, how about we take a stroll in the snow and head back to the Imperial City later?" A rare opportunity for a date, how could he miss it.

  "Put it on." Taking the black cloak, he tossed it into Baili Chuyan's arms. Qing Lengyue stood up, flexing his stiff limbs, and said in a clear voice with a hint of sweetness, "I'll go take a look outside. If we're going back together, then let's go back together."

  "Good."

  Two tall black horses trudged through the thick snow, making their way between the trees. Leng Zixue sat on horseback, tilting her small face to let the sunlight dance across it, her eyes slightly narrowed in a look of enjoyment.

  "Xiao Yue'er, what are you doing?" Closely nestled beside Leng Zhiyue, the calm and serene her was even more captivating.

  Slender fingers parted in front of her eyes, gazing at the fine sunlight refracted through her five fingers onto her body and the snowy ground behind her. Her pink lips slightly opened, "Nothing, just sunbathing."

  "Hehe." With a gentle smile, Baili Chunyuan's eyes became somewhat deep and enchanting.

  The day after tomorrow is Mother's Day, that's his first step in revenge, and later it will only be more brutal than now.

  Those women, he won't let off a single one of them.

  "Live as you wish, don't worry about so many things, life is hard to come by and should be enjoyed to the fullest." This was a principle taught to her by Master Mu Rong Cang, anyway she also came from another world as a wisp of a lonely soul, whatever way she lived was fine.

  As long as I'm happy and content, why bother what others say.

  "Life is short, one must make the most of it. Haha, my little Yu'er is really talented." He came to take revenge and reclaim everything that belonged to him, even if those were things he despised, he had to snatch them back.

  It's better for him to take it back and play with it than to let those messy things stay.

  Mother, if it really comes to that point, I just hope you won't blame the child for being heartless.

  That year, the suffering you endured, every single one of them had a share in it, no one can shirk their responsibility.

  "At this speed, you won't be able to get back by afternoon." She had no interest in being a madman, wandering around in the snowy ground on a cold winter day, with nothing to see and nothing to eat.

  "Alright, listen to Xiaoyue's."

  "Leng Xue Yue." Always calling her "Little Xue" or "Xue'er", it's annoying to hear.

  "Xiao Yue'er."

  "You're hateful and despicable."

  "Isn't it also lovely?" The dark eyes blinked lightly, and Baili Chenyuan revealed a charming smile that directly knocked down Leng Ziyue.

  There were several black lines hanging on her forehead, Leng Ziyue's mouth twitched again and again, silence is gold, she didn't speak and it was settled.

  All his thoughts turned into reality, and that feeling was actually joyful.

  Perhaps, unknowingly, her heart had already drawn close to his.

  But he found out and still doted on her with a thick skin.

  And she, dull-witted as ever, has only now come to her senses.
