Chapter 112: I’d Rather You Let The World Down Than Let The World Disappoint You

Outside the mirror.

All the cultivators stared at that obstinate and cheeky young woman in the mirror.

All of them then turned to look at Bai Qing’er.

The one inside and outside the mirror were the same person, yet it was so hard for them to put the two together.

Nobody could have imagined that a woman who was very extreme in the way she did things, a woman who was extremely aloof, proud and refused to have anything to do with worldly things, had once looked like this.

Bai Qing’er didn’t seem to notice that everyone was staring at her.

It was as though she didn’t care about it at all.

She continued to quietly stare at the man in the mirror, her gaze gentle.

She spoke like she was muttering to herself, “Look, right from the beginning, I’m the one who loves you. Even when you killed my father and wiped my sect out, I never blamed you. I know you must have had your reasons for doing so.”

“But Brother Changqing, if even those women were able to find a place in your heart, why couldn’t I?”

As she continued to talk, the past reflected in the mirror seemed to have tugged at this woman’s long buried memories.

“But none of this is important now. Brother Changqing, after I’m done watching this part of your past, I’m going to kill everyone who’s let you down. They don’t deserve your efforts.”

“I’d rather you let the whole world down than to let the world disappoint you like this.”

In that moment.

Regardless of whether it was Jiang Minghuang, Bai Su or even Gu Youwei.

Their faces changed.

It was from the pressure.

The pressure this woman exerted.

They knew that since she was able to say such a thing, she was definitely capable of carrying it out.

She was willing to do anything for the Heavenly Emperor.

Her love for him was an obsessive one. She went all out.

She was even willing to die for the Heavenly Emperor, so she was certainly willing to kill every person who had betrayed the Heavenly Emperor.

Ye Chen gazed at that black figure in the distance.

But his heart was full of endless envy.

Someone like Bai Qing’er was even more pure and honest than Changxi.

As long as it was someone she acknowledged, even if this man turned out to be evil, or how much he tortured her, she would still go all out for him and do anything for his sake.

Who wouldn’t want a woman who was so beautiful, yet so loyal?

After those feelings of jealousy came a wave of intense anger.

“Damn you, Heavenly Emperor!!”

“You’ve already captured Bai Su and Changxi’s hearts, but that wasn’t enough. Even this Unorthodox Empress is madly in love with you!”

“I’m so much more handsome than you!! Why do all these women revolve around you instead?!”

Ye Chen was furious inside and he clenched his fists tightly.

…

Inside the mirror.

“Humph! Gu Changqing, you really don’t know what’s good for you.”

“Let me tell you – after today, I’m never coming back again. And I’m going to tell my father not to give you anything to eat. You can starve to death!”

Bai Qing’er was angered yet again by this blockhead of a man.

She scolded him thoroughly, the unreasonableness of a princess on full display.

But she ended up slapping herself in the face really quickly too.

The next day.

“Teeheehee.”

“I’ve personally boiled some porridge, and you know what? The porridge I boil is really yummy. Even if my father begs me for some, I won’t give any to him.”

“But you can try some…”

Bai Qing’er held the bowl in one hand and held a spoon in another.

It seemed a little hot, so her fair fingers were red from the heat.

She blew on the porridge, then brought the spoon close to his mouth.

A few moments later.

The sound of a bowl being smashed could be heard from inside the cave, along with the crazed screams of a frustrated little devil.

“Gu Changqing! I’m the princess of the Unorthodox Sect! I’ve been secretly getting things for you every single day! It’s not easy, you know!”

“Why won’t you even talk to me?!”

Bai Qing’er grumbled as she walked out of the cave again. “I’m never coming back, I’m never coming back! Gu Changqing, you’re just a stinky, stupid man!”

…

The third day.

“Teehee…Brother Changqing?”

…

Time continued to pass.

Gu Changqing wasn’t sure how long he had spent inside this dark cave.

That strange young woman would come every day to visit him, as though she simply didn’t get sick of it. Even though she left unhappily every day as well.

But this woman was quite stubborn.

After some time, Gu Changqing didn’t feel as bothered by her presence. At the very least, he had never disliked this woman.

Until one day.

Gu Changqing suddenly said something to the young woman after he had made her angry again.

“I do feel like eating porridge today.”

In that moment, Bai Qing’er froze.

“Wait here.”

She seemed so especially pleased, as though he had shown her tremendous favor. She quickly ran out to carry out his instructions like an obedient little cat.

When she returned, she held a bowl of hot porridge in her hands.

She blew gently on it, then held it out to the man’s mouth.

Gu Changqing took a small sip.

To find that the woman next to him was staring unblinkingly at him.

Her galaxy-like eyes were filled with great anticipation.

“It’s not bad.”

Gu Changqing gave his appraisal.

In that moment, it was as though Bai Qing’er wasn’t the precious lofty princess of the Unorthodox Sect anymore. Her eyes were filled with such deep gentleness.

As if everything that she had done so far was worth it.

She grinned foolishly and giggled, like an angel that had accidentally fallen from heaven, a rare sight to behold.

And that was also the moment when Gu Changqing felt for the first time that a woman could be so easily satisfied.

…

Outside the mirror.

The cultivators watched this scene unfold.

One of them couldn’t help but sigh, “The Unorthodox Empress was really so good to the Heavenly Emperor and didn’t even ask for anything in return. Why did the Heavenly Emperor end up doing something so cruel and unfeeling later on?”

Another cultivator replied, “Don’t forget, the Heavenly Emperor is such a person to begin with. The Unorthodox Empress was good to him, but I’m afraid the Heavenly Emperor never took it to heart.”

Upon hearing what they said.

Ye Chen was about to add fuel to the fire and butter up to Bai Qing’er while slandering the Heavenly Emperor.

But just then, he suddenly heard an explosion behind him.

When he turned to look.

The two cultivators that had spoken up for Bai Qing’er and slandered the Heavenly Emperor had been turned into nothing but clouds of blood.

In front of the mirror.

That icy figure turned around, her gaze frosted over.

“What right do any of you have to make comments on him!”

“How he treated me is between me and him! Nothing to do with you!”

Bai Qing’er stared back at the crowd. The frostiness of her glare was so frightening, nobody dared to even breathe.

Even Ye Chen kept his mouth shut.

Everyone’s understanding of Bai Qing’er’s personality had been renewed once more.

This woman could be terrifyingly obsessive.

She could not stand anybody else passing even the slightest bad comment about that man!
