Chapter 1854 “Gu Ya’s Doomsday (10)”
“You can go back now.” Dust waves in a dismissive manner.
He’s clearly lost interest by this point. As if he wouldn’t know Yun Ruo Xi’s character, right? There’s not a single thing from her mouth he believed there. What seducing men? If Bai Yan was such a character then Di Cang wouldn’t have taken such a woman as his wife. That tyrannical man wouldn’t fall that low.
“Yes Monarch.” Not sure if her story was seen through or offending in some way, the old witch wanted to say something again. However, the second her sight met with the man’s, her heart trembled at the intensity and promptly shut up.
After walking out of the study, the repressed aura dissipated so her unease also disappeared. “Bai Yan! Bai Yan again! Isn’t it enough that you seduced the demon king, now you’re also Monarch Heavenly Flame’s daughter?” The glaring hate in the old witch’s eye could kill if that’s a thing. “I will not let her succeed. I will destroy her and retake what belongs to me…”
She had given up on Chu Yi God by this stage and only hoped to cling to Monarch Dust for protection. However, that doesn’t mean she won’t exact revenge on those who hurt and abandoned her.
Muttering up to here, Yun Ruo Xi quickly controls herself after realizing she’s acting out of place. But right before she could head back to her own room, a cynical voice caught her attention from the wall over.
“That Yun Ruo Xi thinks too highly of herself. If the monarch really did favor her then he would’ve given her a title by now.”
“Oh right, let me tell you a secret…. Our monarch fell in love with a woman many years ago, and as it so happens, I came across the woman’s portrait while cleaning the study room. What a true beauty. I have never seen anyone at that level, far superior to that Yun Ruo Xi. And her name is Willow Frost from what I gathered. I always found the monarch to be a cold person, but I didn’t know he would be so affectionate and name the entire domain after a woman.”
Yun Ruo Xi who originally intended to leave stopped right on the spot.
So it’s like this. Monarch Dust already has a woman he loves to the point where he named the entire domain after her! And he’s also willing to exact revenge on the Demon Realm for a single woman!
Biting her lips, the old witch felt resentful and unfair as the conversation of those two maids echoed in her head.
Why…… why do the good things always happen to others and not me! First it’s Bai Yan getting the love of the Celestial Lord and the Demon King, now it’s Monarch Dust smitten by that Willow Frost. Even a dead person is coming to rob me!
The more she thought about it, the more her chest began to huff and puff from anger. She’s practically grinding her teeth in rage.
These days, this liar and vile old witch have tasted and enjoyed the benefits of power she never had in the Celestial Palace. What pristine façade of generosity? What kind and loving angel? She didn’t need any of that here in the Dust Frost Domain. She could be herself – an evil and ruthless old witch that destroys anyone that crosses her path. That’s her true character, and she didn’t need to hide it here!
Suddenly, Yun Ruo Xi shot open her eyes in a maddening manner and stared into the sky.
“Humph! Monarch Dust treats me differently, I can tell…. Perhaps I can be a replacement for that Willow Frost. Others may not be able to achieve that, but I am different, I am superior to all of them! It’s just a dead woman anyways, the dead will remain the dead. How can a corpse compete with the living?”
