Fairy, listen to my explanation.

Chapter 548 A tyrant, you have the guts to steal men, but not the guts to open the door?
however.

The Empress seems to have greatly underestimated the extent of this guy's madness.

The more respectful Qin Yu was in front of her, the more rebellious and wicked he became at this moment!
The Tribulations of the Seven Emotions.

For all the Great Yan Emperors who have used the royal secret techniques, this danger level is second only to the Venerable Heavenly Tribulation.

Even if one manages to survive the Seven Emotions Tribulation, their cultivation will be affected to some extent, and they may even completely lose the ability to resist the Venerable Tribulation.

Therefore, the royal family would never have resorted to such secret methods unless they faced a crisis of succession.

Records about the Seven Emotions Tribulation may exist within the Great Yan royal family, but outsiders have no idea about its specifics.

However, one thing is certain.

The Empress was too eager to improve her cultivation, which caused her Seven Emotions Tribulations to be exceptionally different, even so...frequent?
During the tribulation, she would feel genuinely happy for Qin Yu's every request, no matter how unreasonable, and she would not feel any resistance.

They might even accept it gladly.

The good times didn't last long, less than a day.

Qin Yu was completely suppressed!
In fact, this calamity is exceptionally intense!
Faced with the powerful Empress, Qin Yu dared not speak out against her anger and could only submit to her manipulation in a wronged manner. If she was not careful, she would be scolded at best and whipped at worst.

What's even more outrageous is that this calamity lasted for a full three days!

Qin Yu strongly suspected that Her Majesty the Empress was settling a personal score.

However, even if they knew, they dared not bring it up.

There's nothing we can do; we're simply not as strong as them.

If it weren't for the worry that Tu Yaoyao would sense the Empress's presence, Qin Yu really wanted to take her to her natal space. Perhaps, there, she could try to have an open and honest conversation with this Empress who was like a goddess.

Each tribulation of love is like an empress with a different personality.

Even though this was the third time she had helped the Empress overcome her tribulation, Qin Yu was still happy to do so and was very cooperative.

The Empress is incredibly powerful and possesses an innate tight-legged holy body. Her combat strength in the One Line Sky is enough to make her stand out among all the little wives in her natal space.

I wonder if Tu Yaoyao, who has never seen its limit, can compare to it.

……

The fifteenth day.

The flying boat was already approaching the border of the Great Yan Immortal Kingdom.

After being in seclusion for half a month, Qin Yu finally stepped out of the flying boat's room.

"Master Qin."

Upon sensing the disappearance of the array enveloping the room, Bai Yaosha immediately noticed and looked over.

A gentle breeze caressed her, causing her hair to flutter softly. A stunningly beautiful face came into Qin Yu's view. Gazing into her beautiful eyes, which held a hint of anticipation and joy, he couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.

"Sorry for the waitting."

Qin Yu said apologetically.

"Cultivation is of utmost importance."

Bai Yaosha didn't mind at all.

For cultivators, it is quite normal to go into seclusion for several years or even decades.

When she used to study array patterns, she would often go into seclusion for several months.

"Ok?"

Qin Yu was a little surprised. How did her sister-in-law know?
However, the cultivation she mentioned is probably different from my efforts over the past half month.

How far is it from the Bai family's territory?

Qin Yu stepped forward and naturally sat down beside her.

The two were almost shoulder to shoulder. Bai Yaosha's arm trembled slightly, and she instinctively wanted to move away a little, but when she saw Qin Yu staring straight ahead, she restrained herself and did not show any hostility.

"At the current rate, it will probably take about ten more days."

Bai Yaosha replied softly.

As she got closer to the tribe's territory, her anxiety grew stronger.

Although she had the protection of her father, the clan chief, she ultimately chose to escape the arranged marriage, making her, in a sense, a sinner of the Bai family.

I don't know what I'll encounter when I go back this time.

Unbeknownst to her, a look of worry crept over Bai Yaosha's brows, and she grew increasingly uneasy.

Under the sunlight, Bai Yaosha's gentle face seemed to be plated with a thin layer of gold, delicate and crystal clear, and her long eyelashes trembled gently with her breath, like butterfly wings dancing lightly in the wind.

Those slightly pursed lips were like flower petals in spring, pink and delicate.

Bai Yaosha seemed to sense something, and turned to look at them. Their eyes met, and her cheeks flushed instantly. She quickly looked away, feeling shy.

he……

Why are you looking at yourself like that?

Bai Yaosha gently touched her cheek with her palm. She wasn't wearing makeup, so she was worried that her makeup might have smudged.
Could it be that my face is covered in dirt?
"I'll take you back, and then I'll naturally bring you out."

Qin Yu came to her senses, smiled faintly, and said.

Bai Yaosha's picturesque profile shimmered in the sunlight, like a stunning painting that captivated the viewer, making one afraid that even a single breath would disturb this beautiful moment.

It's no wonder he was distracted.

"Ah."

Bai Yaosha didn't think much of it and responded softly.

That firm voice seemed to possess boundless magic, calming her previously uneasy heart considerably.

"Yaosha, can you tell me about your childhood with Yaoyin?"

Qin Yu deliberately changed the subject and said.

"of course can."

"When my sister and I were little, our favorite thing to do was run to find our father..."

A glint of light flashed in Bai Yaosha's beautiful eyes, and a faint smile appeared on her cherry-like lips.

As she recounted this, Bai Yaosha seemed to be immersed in that carefree and beautiful memory, and the smile on her face became even more charming.

Qin Yu didn't make a sound to disturb her, listening quietly to her story, occasionally interjecting with a question, but mostly admiring that perfect profile.

Her lips were naturally red without any makeup, and when she slightly parted them, a fragrant aroma wafted out...

When talking about interesting things, Bai Yaosha smiled gently, her cheeks glowing with a captivating radiance.

Qin Yu was unconsciously immersed in such a beautiful scene, and gently reached out to put her arm around that slender shoulder.

Bai Yaosha's body stiffened, and she paused slightly in her speech.

She quickly realized what was happening and didn't resist. Instead, she gently rested her head on his shoulder and continued telling him about her funny stories with Bai Yaoyin.

only……

My heart, which had been calm, started racing again without me even realizing it.

In particular, every time Qin Yu's hot breath sprayed on her cheek, it made her heart beat faster.

After a moment, Bai Yaosha could no longer remain calm. She lowered her head slightly, not daring to look him in the eye. "I...I'll go rest for a while."

Bai Yaosha raised her head, feeling extremely shy.

The flying boat swept across the sky.

She had never imagined being so intimate with a man under the sunlight.

The crucial point is, he's also his sister's boyfriend!

Although her younger sister had mentioned some... very embarrassing things, Bai Yaosha had never seriously considered them; normal ethics and morality did not allow her to think about these things.

"Yaosha, sit with me a little longer."

However, just as Bai Yaosha was about to get up, her slender wrist was gently grasped by a large hand.

"I……"

Bai Yaosha instinctively wanted to refuse, but she felt as if her throat was blocked, and she couldn't say anything.

"May I?"

Qin Yu gently pulled him down to sit.

"It's a bit windy, should we move closer?"

Bai Yaosha's body stiffened, and she mechanically followed Qin Yu's movements, resting her head on his shoulder once again.

Originally wanting to escape, she perhaps sensed that Qin Yu wasn't going to make any further moves, and her body gradually relaxed, no longer as tense as before.

Gradually, Bai Yaosha discovered that leaning on Qin Yu's shoulder like this felt quite nice, as long as she didn't overthink things.

Amidst swirling clouds and mist, a flying boat soars through the air.

The two leaned on each other, like a divine couple from a myth.

……

Dayan Palace.

"Oh, Your Majesty, you're back?"

The Empress Dowager, who had been utterly bored, suddenly stood up, and the great phoenix trembled slightly, as if it were about to spread its wings and fly away.

"Your Majesty, why did it take you half a month to deliver the Qin fish to the border? Couldn't you have delivered it in a single day?"

The Empress Dowager landed quickly in the Imperial Study, shouting as she tried to push the door open and enter.

"Om..."

However, an invisible barrier stood in front of the Imperial Study, blocking the Empress Dowager from entering.

"ah?"

The Empress Dowager was shocked.

How is this going?

I didn't go out to play!

"Your Majesty, please release the restrictions. I've missed you."

The Empress Dowager felt very wronged.

I've been so obedient, why is Your Majesty neglecting me?
"I... am feeling a little tired."

A slightly weary voice came from the Imperial Study.

"Let me take a look at you!"

"It's not necessary!"

The Empress had a headache.

This auspicious omen is wonderful in every way, except that its perception is too acute.

In order to obtain more warmth, the Empress filled the entire container, and even... some overflowed.

As long as the Empress Dowager gets close, she will definitely smell Qin Yu's scent.

The Empress really didn't want to explain so much to the Empress Dowager.

Let's wait until she's digested it first...

"???"

Although the Empress Dowager was simple-minded, she also noticed something was amiss.

In the past, whenever His Majesty was tired, he would come to her bedchamber and let her use the power of the moonlight to soothe him.

Why are you so tired now? Why are you staying in the Imperial Study and not letting me get close?

There's definitely something fishy going on here!

"Oh, so you've been bullying Qin Yu behind my back again!"

The Empress Dowager pondered deeply, and suddenly, a possibility flashed through her mind. Her expression changed drastically, and her large phoenix-shaped body bulged slightly. She was furious.

This bad woman!
I knew it! She was up to no good when she went to deliver Qin Yu!
It only took a day to rush back, but how come it took half a month to deliver it?!
They must have done something to wrong Xiao Ling'er!

His Majesty has really changed.

She became so unrecognizable that even the Empress Dowager wouldn't recognize her.

The former emperor was willing to do anything for Xiao Ling'er, even going through many dangers. But now, he's actually trying to steal Xiao Ling'er's man.

They're still so blatant!
This incompetent ruler.

How could she do such a thing? Isn't she afraid that Xiao Ling'er will be devastated when she finds out the truth?

"presumptuous!"

The Empress's authoritative voice rang out.

The area around the Imperial Study was completely silent, with an immense pressure spreading out, as if even the air itself had stopped moving.

"Then...then let me see!"

The Empress Dowager's imposing aura immediately weakened, but she still did not want to give up.

Your Majesty clearly promised me that you would not bully Qin Yu again and would not do anything to betray Xiao Ling'er!

The imperial study was completely silent, with no response.

"His Majesty……"

The Empress Dowager pouted and raised her little hand, wanting to strike the barrier in front of her, but she was worried about angering the Empress.

The Empress Dowager stood from sunrise to sunset. When she was bored, she would even summon a few spirit beasts to play in front of the Imperial Study, glancing at the tightly closed door from time to time.

"Go back first. I will come to see you after I have finished dealing with state affairs."

Finally, a somewhat helpless voice rang out.

One day...

The smell on your body should have faded by now, right?
