"Of course, this trip wasn’t in vain, after all, to have a Daoist Venerable personally prepare an Ink Treasure for you, who else would get this kind of treatment?"
"..."
Chen Mo’s expression was slightly awkward. "It was indeed unexpected, and in that situation, I was powerless to resist..."
Yu Youhan said casually, "Really? But it seems to me you’re quite pleased."
"..."
Chen Mo felt the suffocating jealousy in the air intensifying.
"No wonder Ji Hongxiu suddenly descended the mountain. She had her eyes on Chen Mo?"
"Indeed, when it comes to shamelessness, those master and disciple are really cut from the same cloth."
"Why not just get rid of her, keeping her around is really an eyesore..."
Yu Youhan’s eyes narrowed slightly, seriously considering the feasibility of this matter.
At this moment, Chen Mo asked, "Empress, did you know long ago that I possessed Dragon Qi?"
Yu Youhan paused for a moment, then nodded, "Initially, I was just suspicious, but after you returned from Yunfu State, I was completely sure."
Chen Mo was suddenly enlightened.
Previously, the Dragon Qi obtained from the Blood Flood Dragon was too thin to catch the Empress’s notice, but it wasn’t until he seized another strand from the Creation Ancient Tree that it grew stronger, naturally unable to escape her eyes.
"So, what does the Empress plan to do with me?" Chen Mo asked cautiously.
Yu Youhan’s expression was somewhat complex.
Dragon Qi carries the mandate of heaven and earth; if harnessed, she was confident she could overthrow the dynasty!
For anyone else, she would stop at nothing to strip them of their Dragon Qi.
Yet it’s just him...
"The very thing I’ve tirelessly pursued ends up on this dog-like lackey, and he’s also my Heart Demon... Could this be destiny’s tribulation?"
Yu Youhan sighed silently.
Seeing the Empress remain silent for a long while, Chen Mo felt a heaviness inside.
The Empress truly appreciated him, not only invited him for foot acupressure, but also stepped on Daji; the bond between them grew deeper and deeper.
However, all of this seemed insignificant compared to the country’s fate... This was also why he dared not mention the matter to Yu Youhan.
"If the Dragon Qi benefits the Empress, why not just extract it from my body..." Chen Mo proactively suggested.
Yu Youhan shook her head, "The Dragon Qi has already been refined by you, forcibly removing it might kill you."
"This life of mine was given by the Empress, I’m willing to risk it."
"I’m not willing."
"Hmm?"
Chen Mo was stunned.
Yu Youhan spoke calmly, "I’m not willing to take that risk. You belong to me; the Dragon Qi on you is just the same, and we won’t discuss this matter again."
Due to the mysterious red silk’s restrictions, she couldn’t take any harmful actions against Chen Mo, even indirectly, as it was too risky for her.
Unknowingly, the two were already tightly bound together, inseparable.
"Empress..." Chen Mo was speechless.
"Don’t look at me with those eyes; we haven’t finished discussing that matter just now." Yu Youhan said coldly, "I could ignore Ling Ningzhi, but now even that crazy woman Ji Hongxiu is involved. Do you really take my words lightly?"
Chen Mo was helpless about this.
The Daoist Venerable voluntarily approached him, what could he do?
Purely heaven’s bounty, but the gift was like a meal deal...
"So what does the Empress suggest?"
"Since Ji Hongxiu squeezed, I must squeeze too!"
?
Chen Mo’s expression stiffened.
