READ NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 16: Three Conditions
Listening to Yuan Tianzong's proposal, the master of the Evil Moon Palace, Jiang Baisheng, pondered for a moment before nodding slowly:
"Very well, let's proceed as Yuan suggested."
"Zhang Bai, I want you to personally investigate the situation at the ruins of the Grand Dream Dynasty palace," Jiang Baisheng instructed.
Zhang Bai, seated beside Jiang Baisheng, was the deputy palace master of the Evil Moon Palace, possessing Law Phase Peak cultivation. He was only half a step away from reaching the Heavenly Realm.
"Understood," Zhang Bai immediately replied.
"Tianxiong and Senyuan, you two will accompany Deputy Palace Master Zhang to explore the reality of the Jiang Dynasty," Yuan Tianzong added.
The two individuals mentioned were Lei Tianxiong, the Great Elder of Blazing Heaven Island, and Bu Senyuan, the Second Elder. Both were also Law Phase Peak cultivators, representing the core leadership of Blazing Heaven Island.
Three Law Phase Peak experts were dispatched to test the waters in the Jiang Dynasty. Their mission: confirm whether there was truly no Heavenly overseeing the dynasty. If the coast was clear, the coalition forces would eradicate the Jiang Dynasty.
Jiang HuanYu returned to his private chambers. It had been two days since Xiao Qingli began refining the Nine Nether Heart; she should be nearing completion.
Entering, Jiang HuanYu saw Xiao Qingli sitting cross-legged on his dragon bed, eyes closed in deep focus.
"My beloved consort," he said gently as he approached her with a warm smile.
"How goes the refinement?"
Upon hearing his voice, Xiao Qingli slowly opened her eyes, now faintly glowing with a violet hue due to the effects of the Nine Nether Heart. Her aura had grown significantly, leaping an entire major realm to reach Profound Peak.
"Thank you," she said softly, her expression tinged with complexity as she looked at Jiang HuanYu.
"My beloved, as I've said before, no matter how priceless the Nine Nether Heart is, it pales in comparison to a single strand of your hair," Jiang HuanYu replied warmly, sitting close beside her and wrapping an arm around her shoulder.
While Xiao Qingli frowned slightly at the closeness, she didn't resist, merely remaining silent.
"Why are you so good to me?" she asked coldly.
"The Nine Nether Heart is a treasure of unparalleled value. Though I was once an empress, I am now a mere minor cultivator. You have no reason to treat me like this."
Jiang HuanYu chuckled lightly and responded, "Would you like to hear the truth or a lie?"
"What's the difference?" she asked, her brow furrowed.
"The lie would be: we are destined for each other, a perfect match made in heaven," he said with a teasing grin.
"And the truth?" she pressed.
Jiang HuanYu's expression turned serious, his gaze tender as he replied:
"The truth is, from the moment I first saw you, I was captivated. Love at first sight, you might say, and I cannot extricate myself from it. I want to keep you by my side not only as the mother of my children but also as a partner to assist in my great endeavors."
"To give you the Nine Nether Heart is just as I said earlier: its value, no matter how extraordinary, is insignificant compared to your smile."
"In truth, what I desire most is your heart. Though I could force you to stay by my side, I disdain such methods. A forced union would bring no joy."
"If I have a scheme, my only intention is to win your love. My feelings are like gentle rain, persistent yet nurturing. Do you understand my heart, my beloved?"
His sudden heartfelt confession and the sincerity in his tone struck Xiao Qingli, leaving her silently contemplating his words.
After some time, she finally spoke:
"Fine. You want me to willingly become your woman, yes?"
"It is my greatest wish," Jiang HuanYu replied seriously.
"Then I agree, but only on three conditions. Once you fulfill them, I will consent to your wishes," she said decisively.
"Name them," Jiang HuanYu replied with a smile.
The Three Conditions
Destroy Bloodshadow Tower:
Xiao Qingli declared, "The Bloodshadow Tower's young master has been plotting against me. I want you to eradicate the entire organization."Jiang HuanYu's response: "No problem. Even if you hadn't mentioned it, Bloodshadow Tower is already on my list for revenge. They conspired with the Evil Moon Palace and Xiao Tianding to kill my father. Their fate is sealed."Retrieve Two Rare Treasures:
Xiao Qingli continued, "I need two materials to refine a specific pill: Heavenly Nether Nine-Leaf Grass and Nightmoon Crystal. You must obtain them for me."Jiang HuanYu's response: "Agreed. Though rare in the Northern Region, as long as they exist, I will find them for you."Crown Her as His Empress:
Blushing slightly, Xiao Qingli added, "I don't care how many consorts you take in the future, but I have one condition: I must be the first and foremost among them."Jiang HuanYu's response: He was initially stunned but then burst into laughter. "Done! Once the first two tasks are complete, I will hold a grand coronation and make you the empress of the Jiang Dynasty."
Jiang HuanYu's assurance brought a faint blush to Xiao Qingli's face, though she maintained her cold demeanor and nodded slightly.
Taking advantage of the moment, Jiang HuanYu leaned close and kissed her lightly on the lips before vanishing from the chamber.
"Rest well, my beloved. I'll return after completing your requests," his voice echoed from outside.
Blushing fiercely, Xiao Qingli muttered to herself, "What is this man doing to me…"
