The Emperor's Mercenary Concubine: Madam Fifth

Chapter 718 The Beauty Behind the Mask 1
The Northern Empire, the imperial capital.

In this resplendent and magnificent luxury place, there is an icy atmosphere.

The man who rescued Xueqing in the forest was the emperor with the most power in the Northern Empire——Huangfuyi.

　In the eyes of mortals, he is an all-powerful, cold and proud king with unparalleled absolute talent. He is known as the "number one in the world" genius illusionist, a god who is looked up to and cannot be imitated or surpassed.

　This is an extremely mysterious world, a super fantasy world where the weak prey on the strong.

　Since Xueqing came here, if she wants to survive, she must adapt as quickly as possible.

　Staying in the Northern Empire, the emperor Huangfu treated each other with courtesy.

Xueqing showed superb medical skills and entered the imperial hospital of the palace.

Here, in order to adapt to the law of survival, Xueqing has to practice a kind of martial arts that does not exist in the 21st century——Illusion.

Huangfu Yi, the king of the Northern Empire, is extremely arrogant and cruel.

Perhaps because he was the first person she met and saved her when she first came to another world, Xueqing had a good impression of him.

However, Xueqing heard that Huangfu Yi was a very powerful and brutal person, who once personally killed his father and brothers, and ascended to the throne.

Xueqing doesn't believe in others, only in herself, she believes that her intuition is not wrong, and Huangfu Yi is not a bad person.

　In front of outsiders, he always wears a mask.

　She wanted to know what his face was like under the mask. When he was asleep, she wanted to sneak over to take off his mask countless times and see his real face.

　But every time she couldn't get close to him, he already knew she was coming.

　She only knew that he was very powerful, that he was an all-powerful illusionist of the emperor, but how powerful his real strength was... She didn't know.

　"Why do you always wear a mask?" She had asked him this question foolishly.

　"..." He smiled lightly, but did not answer.

　"Can I see the face under your mask?"

　"I don't like others to see the face under my mask." His voice was gentle, but indifferent, like a glacier that has not melted for a thousand years and cannot be melted.

　Xue Qing had a flash of inspiration, with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Do you dare to make a bet with me?"

　"What are you gambling?"

　"Bet you...will fall in love with me."

　Xueqing approached him, but he swung his sleeves away, leaving only a back view.

Staring at his back, Xue Qing helplessly shook her head, proud and noble men are like this, and they can't bear the slightest joke.

And was that just a joke?
　His eyes are always looking at the sky and the ground, and she never sees herself in his eyes.

　Huangfu Yi seems to be the most gentle person in the world, but also the most ruthless person.

　In the following days of getting along, Xueqing saw Huangfu Yi clearly, this kind of person who has reached the peak of power and strength is doomed to be alone for the rest of his life.

　She can understand the loneliness in his eyes, only those who have experienced the abyss of real pain can be truly ruthless.

　He may have committed unforgivable crimes for the sake of imperial power, but it is undeniable that he is a good monarch praised by the people of the Northern Empire, a king who has brought prosperity and unprecedented grandeur to the Northern Empire!
　When he had the greatest power in the Northern Empire, no one saw his face again.

　The more unresolved the secret, the more curiosity aroused in Xueqing's heart.

　She really wanted to see what kind of face was behind that mask.

　Xueqing's eyes brightened, and Huangfuyi's bath might be the best chance.Men don't always wear masks in the shower!
