Chapter 163: Bai Qing’er: I Want To Kill This Artifact Spirit

In some ways, Gu Changqing was indeed a bit dull.

But as the saying goes, those involved are often confused while onlookers can see the situation clearly.

Outside the Bronze Ancient Mirror, everyone at this moment deeply perceived the affection hidden in Jiang Yunli’s eyes.

And the bitterness and helplessness behind uttering the word ‘blockhead’.

Such a woman, one who was strong and cold on the outside, but soft inside… What man would not pity or feel love for her?

Today’s Jiang Yunli had changed greatly in temperament, abandoning her former demeanor.

Everyone felt surprised, but they could also understand why.

Because everyone could sense that this might be the one and only, and final time that this strong, cold woman let herself go.

She was the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family. In the end she had to marry for the mission of the Xuanyuan line.

Even though she had affection for the Heavenly Emperor in her heart, she could only helplessly express it with the word ‘blockhead’.

A grievance that could not be settled…

At this moment, nearly everyone’s hearts rose with this emotion.

This was a woman whose fate was already tragic.

But more sorrowful was that she would be refined into an artifact spirit by the man deeply hidden in her heart.

“Sigh.”

Everyone sighed with regret and fell silent.

Ye Chen’s face turned somewhat ferocious. Indeed, ferocious, extremely ferocious.

Even though if things continued this way, once the Heavenly Emperor refined Jiang Yunli into an artifact spirit, people would feel increasing pity for Jiang Yunli and growing hatred toward the Heavenly Emperor.

But Ye Chen’s heart was still filled with boundless anger!

As a man blessed by the heavens, a child of destiny, he had unmatched blessings, boundless charm, and the face of an angel.

But on the Beixuan Continent, none of those stunningly beautiful and talented women treated him with anything but great respect and distance.

By contrast, toward Gu Changqing, one after another seemed willing to fling themselves into his arms.

From whatever he had seen till now, of the women who appeared in Gu Changqing’s past, which one did not harbor feelings for him?

Even the dragon clan princess Long Kui likely had quite a fondness for Gu Changqing!

“Heavenly Emperor!”

“I swear to destroy you! After you die, I will certainly take every woman by your side into my harem.”

Ye Chen ground his teeth and muttered through clenched teeth.

Perhaps even he didn’t realize it himself that as the leader of the Justice Alliance, after starting out with a righteous cause, his mindset had become infinitely twisted by now.

Jealousy rose in Bai Qing’er’s heart in waves.

She had thought Gu Changqing had only enticed Mu Nanzhi during this period, but she hadn’t expected there was also a Long Kui and a Jiang Yunli.

“Hmph, damn you, Changqing.”

Bai Qing’er stomped in anger. This little girl behavior once again overturned everyone’s perception of the cold, unrivalled Unorthodox Emperor.

Bai Qing’er did not think Jiang Yunli was pitiable.

The reason she was jealous was because she understood that that stinking Gu Changqing would certainly not let this woman down!

…

Jiang Minghuang at this moment already had tear-blurred eyes and was sobbing uncontrollably.

In his impression, his sister was a very reliable person, warm like a mother.

On her frail shoulders she bore everything and had always deeply sheltered him.

She was strong, she was cold, she rejected people like a distant iceberg without emotion.

But this tenderness, this helpless posture.

Was something he had never seen.

His sister had never once said she was tired in front of him. She silently took everything on for him.

She spent her life paving the way for him, but in the end his sister had no road to walk.

Jiang Minghuang choked softly, grief in his eyes.

Emotions could not be contained, the heart wounded. This generation’s Emperor Jiang looked mournful, pain in his heart beyond words.

It was unfortunate that he learned to be sensible too late!

By the time he understood these things, his sister had long gone!

Of all the great pain in the world, the greatest regret is nothing more than this: that when the tree wants peace and quiet, the wind refuses to stop blowing…

“Sister…”

Jiang Minghuang whispered softly, clutching the Heaven Burying Bell, crying until he was bent over…

…

The scene within the Bronze Ancient Mirror appeared again.

When it reappeared, it was already dawn.

But when they saw the scene after dawn, everyone outside the Bronze Ancient Mirror suddenly narrowed their eyes, expressions changing drastically!

Gu Changqing slowly woke up.

The strong sting of alcohol had not yet faded. Gu Changqing found the sunlight somewhat dazzling and rubbed his eyes.

Only then did he belatedly feel that the wine from last night seemed off.

Wine capable of intoxicating a Supreme. How could that be right?

He rubbed his eyes, and the scene before him gradually cleared up…

Coming into view were clean white curtains, the window open, a breeze blowing, the curtains gently swaying in the wind.

Outside the window the sun shone brightly, and crisp birdsong chirped.

Gu Changqing’s expression suddenly changed and he bolted upright!

Only because he smelled a fragrance. A soft, moist, lingering scent.

This was clearly a woman’s boudoir!!

Only then did Gu Changqing notice Jiang Yunli beside him.

Her snow-white lotus-like arm hugged a white blanket, revealing a pair of delicate, smooth collarbones. Her gaze flickered with endless complexity.

On the white blanket lay a crimson bloom like a plum blossom…

Gu Changqing’s mind buzzed. A hazy recollection of much tumbling and turmoil surged in his head…

…

Outside the Bronze Ancient Mirror.

Everyone’s expressions changed dramatically.

Gu Youwei widened her eyes, mouth agape like a stunned chicken, expression frozen.

Bai Su’s eyes flashed with jealousy. Her delicate fists clenched, she pressed her lips together, eyes constantly flickering.

Changxi’s anger swelled further, pouring her fury onto Mu Nanzhi regardless of the cost.

Mu Nanzhi’s expression stiffened briefly, then rose in strong jealousy and rage, fighting even harder.

Ye Chen turned away, his face suddenly ferocious. He crouched down, pounding his chest and stamping his feet, shouting wildly in his heart: Heavenly Emperor, I will kill you!!

Jiang Minghuang briefly stifled his sorrow, his expression frozen, lips trembling.

He was utterly shocked. He never imagined his sister and Gu Changqing could have such a past!!

And moreover, his sister had taken the initiative…

Bai Qing’er ground her teeth and turned to look at the Heaven Burying Bell.

Her gaze brimmed with murderous intent!

“You bitch! You schemed against my husband!!”

At this moment Bai Qing’er’s jealousy and murderous intent surged endlessly.

Gu Changqing had long been entangled with many Empresses, but never had any real intimate relationship occurred.

She had originally felt that Jiang Yunli was pitiable.

But now she felt that even if Gu Changqing had refined her into an artifact spirit without any misunderstanding at all, it would not be excessive!

She herself couldn’t be so close to Brother Changqing, so how could that woman!!!

Bai Qing’er bit her teeth and glared at the Heaven Burying Bell.

A thought sprang up in her heart: You dared* to scheme against my Brother Changqing… I want to kill this artifact spirit!*
