Chapter 583: Chapter 224: Red Ling Evolved? The Empress Breaks Down! Witnessing for the 1st Time..._2

As for the matter of rebellion, whether it succeeds or not, he had already prepared for both outcomes.

Having subdued Her Majesty the Empress in advance, how could the fate of his entire clan be reduced to a mere game? By then, as long as the three of them could live well, it would be better than anything...

Yu Youhan hesitated for a moment and said, "You are now only at the Fourth Rank; your cultivation is still too low. At the very least, you’ll have to step into the Heavenly Human Realm to barely make it onto the stage. If you can reach the Heavenly Human First Grade..."

She paused briefly, as if thinking of something, and her expression became even more radiant.

Chen Mo blinked and asked, "If I achieve the Heavenly Human First Grade, would I then catch the Empress’s eye?"

Yu Youhan nodded slightly, "More or less..."

"There aren’t many grandmasters in the entire Great Yuan, much less those of the First Grade—such figures are as rare as phoenix feathers. For someone like me, reaching that level seems like an unattainable dream..." Chen Mo sighed helplessly.

Yu Youhan frowned at his words and said sternly, "You just said with conviction that you’d stay by my side, and now you’re backing out? How worthless is your promise?"

"I’m not backing out..."

Chen Mo wrapped his arm around her slender waist and whispered in her ear, "I just want the Empress to give me a bit of motivation."

Yu Youhan’s throat moved, "What kind of motivation do you want?"

Just as she finished speaking, Chen Mo’s hand was already sliding down her waist.

At that moment, the red silk also stirred restlessly, and Yu Youhan’s body suddenly tensed, her breathing becoming hurried, "Wait, wait a minute, even if you want to act recklessly, you should at least untie the rope first."

Chen Mo chuckled, "It’s alright, I can work with it still tied..."

?

Yu Youhan was momentarily at a loss.

Chen Mo’s fingertips brushed her smooth skin, and he changed the subject, "Let me tell you a story, Your Majesty."

"What story all of a sudden..." Yu Youhan was a bit dizzy from his words.

Chen Mo continued nonchalantly:

"Once upon a time, there was a country called Qi Kingdom, and Tian Ji was a great general of that kingdom."

"One time, he agreed with the King of Qi to have a horse race. Each of them divided their horses into upper, middle, and lower classes. During the race, the upper-class horse faced the upper-class horse, the middle-class horse faced the middle-class horse, and the lower-class horse faced the lower-class horse."

"Since the King of Qi’s horses in each category were slightly stronger than Tian Ji’s, Tian Ji lost in each race."

"What do you think Tian Ji should have done to win, Your Majesty?"

Yu Youhan pondered for a moment after hearing and replied, "As long as they don’t change horses, just adjust the order of appearance. First, use the lower-class horse against the upper-class horse, then use the upper-class horse against the middle-class horse, and finally use the middle-class horse against the lower-class horse."

"In this way, out of three races, two can be won."

Chen Mo clapped his hands in admiration, "As expected of the Empress, your mind is quick, and you immediately grasped the key point."

Yu Youhan looked thoughtful, "So, you are comparing me to Tian Ji and the Empress to the King of Qi, suggesting that even in unfavorable circumstances, one can still win against the odds by adjusting strategy?"

Chen Mo shook his head, "You’re overthinking, Your Majesty; that’s not what I meant."

"Oh?" Yu Youhan expressed doubt, "Is there another deeper meaning that I missed?"
