CH 115

[I remember once.]

[At the back of the cliff, in a hanging bamboo bed under a tree.]

[When Rong’er was rocking with me at the stake, she suddenly had an emergency in the middle of it.]

[She ran to the edge of the cliff and shushed on the spot for half an hour.]

[The cliff breeze gently brushes the rainbow flowing.]

Ding Nanrong in the ladies’ bathroom: (ס_ס;;)!



Black Water Fury from the Space Ring: “As expected of the body of the water element, next time this god must try her… ٩(̾●̮̮̃̾•̃̾)۶!”

Xue Menghan’s hot eyes: “Blah! Vulgar!”

[Rong’er is a sweet and caring daoist companion.]

[She knew it would be bad for my health if she made me wait in the middle.]

[So just… Hmm.]

[So under Rainbow rapids, lip-smacking.]

[The sun shining on the cliff is not half as red as her face.]

Bathroom.

Jiang Mu, wearing only his trousers.

While dipping into the herbal bath, he writes in his diary.

He glanced in the direction of the ladies’ room and didn’t see Ding Nanrong returning.

“Gotta hurry up and finish writing the diary while there’s this free time.”

“And then collect today’s reward.”

So proceeded to write down.

[At this time now, Xue Cheng’s meeting should be over.]

[Xue Menghan imagines that the demon army will not attack the city.]

[Xue Yuanshan was worried that no one would support Xue City.]

[Ling Aotian, on the other hand, was happy because there were demon beasts to hunt and he could show off his skills.]

[He also took this opportunity to bet with Xue Menghan that the demon army would definitely attack the city tomorrow.]

[If Xue Menghan lost, she would have to call him Brother Aotian.]

[But Xue Menghan didn’t bet on it.]

[Because she felt that it was not a good thing for the demon army to attack the city, while Ling Aotian acted very happy.]

[This made her feel a little disgusted in her heart.]

Xue Menghan scowled, “Anyone else would be disgusted, right? The demon army attacking the city is something that will kill people.”

[As a result, when readers saw this plot, many of them said it was poisonous.]

[They said it didn’t fit the heroine’s nymphomaniac persona.]

[So they strongly requested the author to change it to Xue Menghan agreeing to the bet and being a nymphomaniac woman.]

[Or else they will dump the book.]

[There are also many readers who think that this is Ling Aotian’s problem and that he shouldn’t be happy about the demon army attacking the city, which comes across as selfish.]

[So it’s Ling Aotian who should be the one to change.]

[And since both readers were evenly matched, neither could convince anyone and it eventually turned into a scolding war.]

[This made a wave of traffic to the book drawn.]

[So the author simply didn’t bother to change it.]

[This also made me change my mind a bit about Xue Menghan’s persona.]

[At least she’s not a bottomless nymphomaniac and not so… Stupid, I guess.]

“You’re stupid! You’re the stupidest! You’re the bottomless nymphomaniac!”

“Just write your diary properly, why do you keep talking about me?”

Xue Menghan was so angry that she stomped her foot, her face slightly flushed red.

In Ling Aotian’s eyes, he only thought that she was shying away from that ‘Aotian brother’ phrase.

Then he laughed and said.

“Menghan, you haven’t answered whether you bet or not, haha…”

“Bet my shit!”

Xue Menghan furiously said on the spot.

Then she turned around and left.

Ling Aotian was bewildered to be scolded and only laughed ‘haha’ embarrassingly.

Xue Yuanshan helplessly explained.

“Young Master Ling don’t mind her.”

“Han’er has been distracted for the past few days since she returned from the Changyu Empire.”

“She is missing her mother.”

Ling Aotian made use of the slope and rubbed his nose to ease his embarrassment.

Then, changing the subject, he asked.

“Lord City Master, I heard that the female emperor of the Changyu Empire is a generation of heavenly pride?”

Xue Yuanshan’s face straightened as he solemnly replied.

“That’s right.

“Although the Empress is a mortal, she does not have any cultivation.

“However.

“She is deservedly the number one person in Yuzhou!”

Oh?

The Empress is actually a mortal?

Without any cultivation, she was even the number one person in Yuzhou?

How did she manage to do that in this world where the strong prey on the weak?

Ling Aotian’s gaze glimmered as he couldn’t help but reveal an evil smile.

He was extremely interested in this mortal empress.

Quite interested, indeed!



Xue Menghan returned to her room.

Sitting right in front of the table.

Continuing to look at the diary.

[A few days before.]

[Xue Menghan followed Xue Yuanshan and went on a trip to the Changyu Empire.]

[And met Changyu meng in person.]

***

Meanwhile in Changyu Empire.

Inside the simple study room, fragrant incense rose up.

Changyu meng had just finished her official business, so she removed her luxurious clothes and ornaments.

Then she changed into a light pink gown, which lightly hung on her tall figure.

She leans back on the soft, cool window seat.

And a copy of Jiang Mu’s private diary appeared in her hand.

Opening the diary.

It was just in time to read the message about herself.

“Is it finally my turn to make an appearance.”

[Changyu meng, thirty-first generation of the Changyu Empire… Ahem, Again.]

[Thirty-first empress.]

[And the first female ruler in the history of the Changyu Empire.]

[She is domineering, but kind-hearted.]

[She is ruthless, but also admired by the people.]

[Born into an imperial family, she grew up playing the power game like an expert.]

[Just as adorable as Little Cutie playing with snakes and Ding Nanrong playing with water]

[If I were to use a poetic phrase to describe this empress, it would be.]

[There is a beautiful woman in Yuzhou, who is absolutely worldly and independent.]

[Looking at the country and flattening the whole state with a single breast.]

[Oh yes.]

[This stupid b*tch, also the fifth heroine.]

“Stupid bitch?”

“Interesting.”

The corners of Changyu meng’s mouth curled up slightly.

Ever since she was a child, she had received praise for being smart and clever, resourceful… And so on and so forth.

Now Jiang Mu was actually calling her a stupid b*tch?

This nonetheless did not make her feel annoyed.

On the contrary.

This sense of contrast brought her interest up.

“Does it mean that in the future plots.”

“Will I do something stupid?”

“Either way.”

“I’ll have to meet you in person sometime.”

“Jiang Mu.”

The Changyu meng, was interested in Jiang Mu.

[The weird thing is.]

[This stupid bitch is, in fact, a mortal.]

[Although she is only mortal.]

[But she still has something to offer in terms of authority, hearts and minds, strategic development and all that.]

[Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to make the whole of Yuzhou willingly submit to her in this world where cultivators are everywhere and demonic beasts are rampant.]

[After Xue Menghan had met her, she had generously, given Xue Menghan the post of ‘Female Emperor’s Personal Guard’.]

[This was an acknowledgement of the merits of Xue Menghan’s mother – Yun Lan – and also reaped Xue Menghan’s gratitude.]

[The relationship between the two women was thus bridged.]

[This also paves the way for the harem plot later on.]

“A personal guard?”

Changyu meng leaned on her cheeks and thought.

“But the one I have given to Xue Menghan is not a personal guard, but rather a sister.”

“That is to say.”

“My plot, it’s already going off the tracks?”

“Interesting.”

Changyu meng’s interest rose another point.

She runs her jade hand across the diary.

Then she looked down.
