"As long as you please this Emperor to the best of your abilities, the Star Tear is yours, and your husband will live. But if you are unwilling, this Emperor will not force you.
It's just a pity for this Emperor's ill-fated family member. The once high and mighty, imperious Immortal King, can now only die alone in some unknown corner.
Now, the choice is yours.
The time has come to test your feelings for the Star Extreme Immortal King.
So, please answer me. Are you willing to sacrifice everything and pay any price for your husband's life, even if it means giving up everything? Lady! Concubine! Luo!" Gu Qingfeng had a smile of absolute control on his lips as he quietly looked at the woman before him.
To Concubine Luo, Gu Qingfeng's words were like a heavy hammer, ruthlessly striking her heart.
Making her face grow even paler, and her figure even more unsteady.
Thud!
Concubine Luo slumped to the ground, sobbing silently. Crystal-clear teardrops slid down her fair and delicate oval face, falling to the floor.
"How is your consideration going? Her Highness Concubine Luo."
Hearing Gu Qingfeng call her name, Concubine Luo's heart inexplicably tightened. Suddenly, she raised her head, and her tear-stained, pitifully beautiful face entered Gu Qingfeng's sight.
She bit her lower lip tightly and said, "Will you really give me the Star Tear afterwards?"
Gu Qingfeng smiled faintly and directly tossed the Star Tear in his hand, letting it fall into Concubine Luo's hands.
Concubine Luo hastily caught the Star Tear, cupping it with both hands and holding it against her chest.
After carefully inspecting it, she put the Star Tear away.
Her gaze towards Gu Qingfeng carried a trace of determination. "Fine, I agree to your terms. But this Palace has one request: His Majesty must absolutely never know what happened today."
"Alright, this Emperor promises you. (I'm lying)," Gu Qingfeng readily agreed.
Hearing the affirmative answer, Concubine Luo finally made up her mind. Steeling her heart and closing her eyes, she said, "Come on then!"
Gu Qingfeng did not move, but instead said with keen interest, "You're mistaken. It should be you coming to me."
"You!" Concubine Luo abruptly opened her eyes, her face full of anger. "Don't push your luck!"
"Shut up! Kneel before this Emperor!"
.......
The next day, Gu Qingfeng, Concubine Luo, and Yan Jingyun headed up the Ancient Star Tree to find the Star Extreme Immortal King.
Along the way, Yan Jingyun didn't ask why obtaining a single Star Tear had taken an entire night.
Nor did he ask why Her Highness Concubine Luo had covered herself up so tightly, even hiding her neck.
He didn't care about these things; he simply fulfilled the basic duties of a guard with utmost dedication.
Soon, the three of them reached the depths of the Ancient Star Tree.
"We're here. This is the place," Concubine Luo said coldly, seemingly having recovered her lofty, elegant, and luxurious temperament.
Gu Qingfeng sighed inwardly. Women truly were fickle; she was like two completely different people during the day and at night.
He looked around and asked, "Where is he? Where is this Emperor's family member?"
"His Majesty is inside the ancient tree," Concubine Luo explained indifferently. Her tone hadn't changed in the slightest because of what happened last night.
"Inside the ancient tree?" Gu Qingfeng looked at the Ancient Star Tree, which was comparable in size to a small world, feeling somewhat speechless. Why the hell didn't you just say he was in the Eternal True Realm?
Seemingly seeing through Gu Qingfeng's thoughts, Concubine Luo explained, "In order to prevent being discovered by his enemies, His Majesty hid within the Ancient Star Tree to recuperate, and he hasn't told anyone his exact location.
Facing an existence like an Immortal King, a so-called secret, no matter where it is, is no longer a secret once it is spoken out loud."
"To think that this Emperor's family member was forced to such an extent, how detestable! Please rest assured, Your Highness. Given our personal relationship, this Emperor will definitely help your husband take revenge in the future."
Hearing Gu Qingfeng's words, an unnatural panic flashed across Concubine Luo's face. She stole a glance at Yan Jingyun and, finding that he hadn't noticed anything unusual, breathed a sigh of relief before returning to normal.
She said aloofly, "Young Master Gu is too kind."
"Since you don't know where the Star Extreme Immortal King is either, how will you contact him and give him the Star Tear?"
"Young Master Gu need not worry about that. Before you is the main trunk of the Ancient Star Tree. As long as the Star Tear is merged into it, His Majesty, who is within the ancient tree, will be able to absorb its power and recover," Concubine Luo explained.
"Then what are we waiting for! Hurry up and merge the Star Tear. Don't let this Emperor's family wait anxiously," Gu Qingfeng said eagerly.
Concubine Luo, who was standing to the side, was very surprised. Although they had interacted deeply, she still couldn't understand Gu Qingfeng. If you said he harbored malicious intentions, the eagerness on his face truly wasn't faked; he seemed to care more about the Star Extreme Immortal King than she, his concubine, did.
To be honest, Concubine Luo didn't have much affection for the Star Extreme Immortal King. After all, as an emperor's concubine, talking about feelings was too much of a luxury.
To her, the Star Extreme Immortal King was more of a backer. Only if the Star Extreme Immortal King lived could she remain the lofty Concubine Luo. Otherwise, she would be nothing. She wanted to save the Star Extreme Immortal King for the sake of power and status.
But what was Gu Qingfeng doing this for?
If he was also after power and status, then why had he done such absurd things last night?
Could it be that her charm was so great that it made him willing to risk universal condemnation just to do such a thing?
Thinking of this, a trace of secret delight actually welled up in Concubine Luo's heart. Although she disliked Gu Qingfeng's methods, she very much liked his attitude. This was undoubtedly an affirmation of her own charm.
"Hey, hurry up! What are you standing there in a daze for?" Gu Qingfeng urged dissatisfiedly when he noticed Concubine Luo standing motionless. He was anxious to see his family member.
In terms of dedication, the Star Extreme Immortal King was definitely the family member he had put the most effort into. He had gone through untold hardships to help him heal his injuries and cure his illness, and even took care of his wife. Who else could be this selfless?
Concubine Luo suddenly snapped back to reality. After a sound of acknowledgement, she hurriedly merged the Star Tear into the Ancient Star Tree.
Cupping the Star Tear, which emitted an azure light, in both hands, she slowly pushed it into the Ancient Star Tree.
The Star Tear was like a drop of water, gradually being absorbed by the ancient tree. Once it was completely absorbed, the entire Ancient Star Tree unexpectedly burst forth with a heartbeat-like rhythm.
A surge of azure light shot into the sky, and the whole ancient tree began to glow.
Gu Qingfeng's body trembled slightly with excitement. Finally... he could reunite with his family member!
He waited quietly. After a short while, the azure light finally dissipated, and everything returned to tranquility.
Is he coming out?!
Gu Qingfeng stared fixedly at the main trunk of the Ancient Star Tree, waiting for his family member to descend.
However, at this moment, Concubine Luo in the distance asked in surprise, "Young Master Gu, what are you still standing there for? Aren't you leaving?"
"Leave?" Gu Qingfeng turned his head to look at Concubine Luo and Yan Jingyun, who had already walked quite a distance away, and was somewhat stunned.
"Leave for where? This Emperor's family member hasn't come out yet. This Emperor isn't going anywhere!"
Concubine Luo was taken aback at first, then chuckled lightly, "Then Young Master Gu had better be prepared to stay here for several years."
Gu Qingfeng frowned. "What do you mean?"
"Young Master Gu, I am truly curious. Could it be that you have never been injured? The higher one's cultivation level, the harder it is to be wounded. However, once injured, even with the aid of miraculous items, it is often difficult to recover without spending several years," Concubine Luo explained.
Gu Qingfeng: "..."
Damn it, this Emperor really hasn't suffered any injuries!
Even if I were injured, I would recover on the spot. Why would it take several years?
What kind of bullshit Immortal King is this? It has to be a fake, right!?

Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body.

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family."

Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
