"Do you want to kill Lin Fan? I'll help you."
The waters of West Lake, my tears.
Xu Mo was stunned.
He didn't show much emotion on his face.
But inside, a storm was raging!
[What the hell!! Little sis, what do you mean by this? Are you helping me take out your boss?]
[Ahem... that's not the point.]
[The point is, how do you know what I'm thinking?]
Xu Mo opened his mouth, but many words were stuck in his throat.
He didn't dare make any rash moves.
After all, he wasn't sure.
Was this a trap set by the Dragon Queen?
After spending so much time together,
it wasn't impossible for the Dragon Queen to have figured out his thoughts.
Next, she might predict his predictions.
And then, with a swift move, subdue him.
Xu Mo's mind was already conjuring up a hundred ways he could die.
"You're wondering how I know what you're thinking, right?"
An Youyi calmly voiced Xu Mo's inner thoughts.
This startled Xu Mo.
Seeing that the Dragon Queen didn't make any further moves,
Xu Mo finally nodded.
An Youyi's sensual lips parted as she spoke.
"I don't know when you discovered my identity, but I'll be honest. I don't like Lin Fan, so I decided to help you kill him."
The eyes are the windows to the soul.
Sometimes, trust between people only requires a single glance.
Through the Dragon Queen's clear and untainted eyes,
Xu Mo, for a moment, believed her.
But this whole situation was just too... something.
Not liking Lin Fan and deciding to kill him?
That's just your style, isn't it?
So, the Green-Hatted Dragon King would cry, right?
The shock in Xu Mo's heart was indescribable.
After calming down for a while,
Xu Mo asked, "How can I trust you?"
He didn't dwell too much on how he was exposed.
At this moment, Xu Mo just wanted a result!
Getting the Dragon Queen's pledge of allegiance
was nothing but beneficial for Xu Mo.
Since he had made up his mind,
he would charge forward without hesitation.
Xu Mo didn't want to be halfway there, only to be blindsided by the Crooked-Mouthed Dragon King.
If the Dragon Queen teamed up with him to take Xu Mo out,
that would be a disaster with no way to cry for help.
Just as Xu Mo was lost in thought,
An Youyi suddenly moved in without warning.
This time,
the Dragon Queen was more aggressive than ever.
Though her face remained expressionless.
Wait, no.
Xu Mo caught a glimpse of the Dragon Queen's slightly chubby cheeks, which were now tinged with a faint blush.
At the same time,
BANG----------
The door was pushed open from the outside.
"Boss Xu, there's a meeting this afternoon you need to attend... huh???"
Jiang Jiajia's beautiful eyes widened like saucers.
Her cherry lips parted in shock.
Oh my god??????
What was she seeing?
Her boss was actually... with his bodyguard in the office, doing something like this!
Ugh------------
Shameful, utterly shameful!!!!!
The secretary felt her throat go dry and instinctively swallowed.
Xu Mo couldn't move, but his gaze was unaffected.
He glanced at Jiang Jiajia by the door.
His lips moved,
trying to call for help.
But for a long time, no words came out.
Jiang Jiajia also noticed Xu Mo's gaze.
Her eyes glistened with unshed tears.
Love fades when it reaches its deepest point.
So... does love just disappear?
Jiang Jiajia sniffled, and under Xu Mo's bewildered and horrified gaze,
she silently retreated from the room.
And gently closed the door behind her.
After what felt like an eternity,
POP--------------
The Dragon Queen finally stopped.
Xu Mo, now able to breathe fresh air again, gasped heavily.
An Youyi pulled out a tissue from the side and elegantly wiped her lips.
Whether intentional or not,
the Dragon Queen unexpectedly muttered,
"You're getting better at this."
Xu Mo's face darkened.
Her words had completely shut him down.
He wanted to protest,
but the truth seemed to be just that.
After a moment of silence,
An Youyi blinked, her face slightly flushed but otherwise expressionless.
She looked at him and said word by word,
"Do you believe me now?"
Xu Mo stared at her.
She stared back.
The two of them exchanged a silent gaze.
At this moment,
Xu Mo also connected the dots he hadn't figured out before.
The Dragon Queen might be a bit naive,
but she wasn't stupid.
Would she kiss a stranger?
Unless she approved of him.
Otherwise, forget about this kind of thing.
If you randomly grabbed the Dragon Queen's hand,
unless you had a death wish,
you might as well say goodbye to that arm.
Xu Mo thought to himself.
He shuddered.
Suddenly, he realized another huge problem.
This was the Dragon Queen's pledge of allegiance.
But it seemed like she had already given it to him long ago.
Xu Mo remained silent.
An Youyi stood quietly by his side.
After a while,
Xu Mo finally digested all the shocking information and said to An Youyi,
"Alright! I believe you!"
As soon as Xu Mo finished speaking,
An Youyi moved in again.
Xu Mo quickly reached out to stop her,
but it was too late.
Half an hour later,
An Youyi let go of Xu Mo.
Xu Mo was free once more.
[My lips are numb, damn it.]
[Why is the Dragon Queen even more terrifying than the Demon Queen!?]
[Is it because she practices ancient martial arts?]
[The Demon Queen is just a regular person, but the Dragon Queen is a cultivator.]
[So, setting aside the @#￥@#￥ factor, are we evenly matched now?]
[One major threat is resolved, but there's still Li Jiaxin. I wonder what's going on with her.]
[Should I ask the Dragon Queen to act as a mediator?]
[Invite her, behead her, or make her one of us... ahem, make her an ally.]
Xu Mo wasn't sure how much information Li Jiaxin had leaked to Lin Fan.
But he could let bygones be bygones.
All he wanted was to take out Lin Fan, the so-called "Chosen One."
Once Lin Fan was gone,
Xu Mo would be safe.
If Lin Fan's Dragon King Palace wanted revenge,
Xu Mo wouldn't mind getting his hands dirty.
As the saying goes,
if it can be resolved peacefully, do it peacefully.
Of course,
Lin Fan was the exception.
After all, one was the protagonist, and the other was the villain.
At least one of them had to die
for this to end.
This world had ancient martial arts.
What was science even worth here?
Xu Mo didn't want to be enjoying a cozy life with his family one day,
only for Lin Fan to suddenly appear
and put a bullet in his head.
That would be too humiliating.
No matter how well-prepared he was,
with the malice of the heavens,
there would always be a loophole.
One mistake, and his entire family would be doomed.
Xu Mo couldn't gamble with his family's lives!
"I'll talk to the Burning Angel for you. We have a good relationship,"
the Dragon Queen suddenly said.
Xu Mo gave her a complicated look. What kind of relationship do you two have? I know exactly what's going on.
"Ahem... don't push yourself. Do what you can," Xu Mo said, then curiously asked, "How confident are you? Can you really turn her against him?"
An Youyi knew Xu Mo didn't believe her.
So, she did something that left Xu Mo utterly stunned.
The Dragon Queen pulled out a sharp dagger she carried with her.
Her fingers moved with incredible dexterity, making the dagger dance in her hand.
"One hundred percent!"

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
