Chapter 109: The Empress and the Regrets of the Past!
In the eyes of everyone filled with anticipation, the diary finally got an update.
On the screen, a familiar handwriting appeared.
Eternal Emperor’s Diary, Page 45:
[On the way to the Abyssal Sea…]
[As we got closer, I couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy. What if we run into some danger?]
[One wrong move, and it’s game over for me!]
[Besides, I currently lack crucial information, so I can’t really assess the risks. But deep down, I feel this mission is at least high-risk!]
[Oh well!]
[Let’s just take it step by step. If there’s real danger, I can make a run for it—staying alive is the priority!]
[During this time, I’ve been stuck on the boat with the Female Dragon. I have to say, this giant magical treasure is quite comfortable.]
[Ordinary beasts can’t get anywhere near it; it’s safe, low maintenance, and super fast!]
[But…]
[Recently, the Female Dragon seems to be getting a bit feisty again, back to her arrogant, aloof attitude from our first meeting.]
[Ugh!]
[Back then, I thought about finding a chance to teach her a lesson, heh heh!]
[As luck would have it, the opportunity came quickly.]
[Turns out, the Female Dragon is here to find some rare detoxifying elixir—extremely rare.]
[She searched high and low before finally getting a tiny lead.]
[We’ve ventured to the northernmost part of the Wasteland, but after several days, we just keep hitting walls. The Dragon is about to go crazy!]
[No elixir found, and she’s managed to offend quite a few people…]
[Haha, I put on a brave face to comfort her, but inside, I’m a bit smug. This silly girl really doesn’t learn!]
[She’s still young; a little setback isn’t a big deal!]
[A few more days passed!]
[The Female Dragon can only submit, and she comes back to me for help again. Heh heh… I casually mentioned she could be my maid for a month, and to my surprise, she actually agreed!]
[This caught me off guard; to me, the Female Dragon is a proud and strong sort!]
[Wait a minute, something smells fishy here!]
[Could it be that all of this is part of her scheme? Going through so much trouble just to be my maid? After all, every time someone transmigrates, they always have to have a stunning maid by their side, right?]
[Is this all a twist of fate, or is the Female Dragon secretly sweet on me, scheming away?]
[She’ll go to great lengths just to be with me!]
[Hmm, does it even matter…]
[Ah!]
[As I reached this point, a maid’s voice called out, saying the hot water was ready for my bath and change of clothes!]
[Heh heh heh!]
[Let’s wrap it up here for now. Little Dragon, here I come!]
This diary ends here, revealing not too much information.
Still heading to the Abyssal Sea.
“Heh heh… Looks like the Female Dragon can’t escape the Emperor’s claws!”
“Who would have thought the Eternal Emperor was like this!”
“He’s the Emperor, after all. That Female Dragon seems to be well trained; I like this kind of dynamic. Next time, I’ll also find a haughty little Dragon to mess with!”
“My skills aren’t high enough; I’m afraid I’d get beaten up!”
“By the way, do we know the true identity of the Female Dragon yet?”
“Rumor has it she’s Empress Ye Qingge of the Liyue Celestial Dynasty…”
“Don’t say that casually; it could cost someone their life, right? It can’t be true? Ye Qingge? She’s a ruthless killer, how could she be anyone’s maid?”
“Who knows? Maybe even the legendary Empress has a little-known tragic story.”
“I just want to know how the maid serves the Eternal Emperor during bath time. I’m so jealous!”
After reading the diary, it was time for the cultivators to engage in their usual lively chatter.
This moment brings a bit of joy to their otherwise dull lives.
Jade Pool Sacred Land!
Yuan Ruoyu stood on a lotus platform, having finished reading, and uncontrollably teased, “This guy really knows how to enjoy himself…”
“Who would have thought!”
She paused, gazing towards the direction of the Liyue Celestial Dynasty, and murmured, “Even the seemingly invincible Empress has moments where she lowers herself for the sake of others.”
With that, she chuckled and shook her head.
Meanwhile.
In the Liyue Celestial Dynasty!
In a grand hall of the palace, the Empress hadn’t attended court for a while, and the other ministers were still required to handle affairs.
At this moment, the ministers were also glued to the diary.
But after reading, they all exchanged silent glances, not daring to speak.
While others may not know who the Female Dragon is, within the Liyue Celestial Dynasty, it was already no secret.
Isn’t she their very own Empress?
Because of this, the ministers dared not utter a word—being a servant and knowing too many of the Empress’s secrets isn’t a good thing at all.
Especially when it involves something so personal.
If one day, the Empress accidentally steps into the court and gets dragged out for execution, that wouldn’t be worth it!
Chancellor Gongyang Mu cleared his throat, saying, “Recently, we’ve been busy dealing with the aftermath of the Jiang Family incident!
“And besides, the Emperor’s diary doesn’t contain any important information, so everyone can disperse and attend to your own matters.”
The others nodded repeatedly and quickly exited the hall, many wiping the sweat off their brows.
In another part of the palace, in the Empress’s chamber.
The atmosphere felt a bit tense.
Empress Ye Qingge’s face was flushed with anger as she glared at Lin Feng, expressing her discontent.
Lin Feng’s lips twitched; how could he remember what he wrote back then?
At this moment, he was filled with mixed feelings.
A diary records the truth, whether it’s about events or inner thoughts.
Otherwise, what’s the point?
Ye Qingge coldly laughed, suddenly pulling out a long whip, playfully stating:
“Dearest, would you like me to assist you in changing clothes again?”
With a single sweep of her hand, the whip cracked through the air with a resounding snap.
Lin Feng’s eyes lit up, feeling a bit of heat rising within him.
This little Dragon really thinks I can’t handle her anymore?
Ye Qingge noticed his gaze and paused, suddenly panicking, “You… what do you want?”
The next moment, her vision blurred as Lin Feng abruptly scooped her up in front of him.
Ye Qingge’s expression changed, gasping, “No!”
As she struggled to break free, in terms of power, there was no way she could match Lin Feng.
No matter how much Ye Qingge fought, she couldn’t escape even half an inch.
She could only plead, “Don’t! Let go of me!”
“Ha ha ha…”
Lin Feng smiled wide and gave her a few playful swats.
Smack! Smack! Smack!
Ye Qingge’s face turned crimson, squirming like a fish thrown into a pot, trying to wiggle away, but it was all in vain.
She was about to cry, feeling that peculiar pain, a sensation she hadn’t experienced in ages.
And every time, it was related to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng chuckled, saying, “Let’s see if you dare to act up next time. Three days without a lesson, and you think your roof won’t get blown off?”
Ye Qingge kept pleading, “I won’t dare!”
“Please, spare me!”
For some reason, as time passed, she felt a strange sensation…
Aside from embarrassment, she even felt a bit of anticipation.
This left Ye Qingge both surprised and terrified—could it be that she has some strange problem in her heart?
No, impossible!
She wouldn’t admit it; if anyone found out, how could a celestial dynasty Empress face the world?
At this moment, the projected screen flickered again, and the diary updated once more.
Familiar handwriting slowly emerged…
