Chapter 177 The Birth And Spread Of Rumors, Ash Moon Empress Breaks The Defense!
"Is the Immortal Cave Mansion real or fake? I was planning to go and take a look!"
"Forget it, don't go. It's the place where many saints have fallen. I heard that just the residual pressure there is enough to kill a cultivator in the Empty Void Realm."
"That's terrifying... But who would bother creating a fake Immortal Cave Mansion?"
"It is said that this Immortal Cave Mansion was built by the Ash Moon Empress, with the purpose of attracting saints from various forces to come here!"
"What a grand plan, daring to deceive even the saints of various forces!"
"Who can say otherwise?"
"........."
One message after another caused the entire tavern to erupt in commotion, with everyone talking.
"But what is her purpose in doing this?" someone questioned.
Soon, someone answered him.
"Don't you understand? Ash Moon Empress deliberately set up a trap to deceive everyone, with the purpose of luring powerful individuals to Great Qin, so as to seize the opportunity to annihilate Great Qin and dominate the Heavenly River Domain!"
"Hiss~"
One sentence made everyone gasp in shock.
This is too crazy.
But upon careful consideration, it does make sense.
After all, Great Qin has displayed unprecedented strength, and Ash Moon Empress knows she is no match. So she came up with this plan.
But soon, others shook their heads and refuted:
"No, you're wrong. The news I heard is not like that!"
Everyone turned to look and saw a tall, rugged-looking man with a strange smile and a mysterious expression on his face.
Curiosity was piqued, and they quickly asked, "Tell us, what news did you hear?"
The man enjoyed the attention and nodded, clearing his throat before whispering:
"Ash Moon Empress has actually secretly submitted to our Majesty, and not only that, she has become our Majesty's person!"
"Ah?"
Everyone widened their eyes, unable to believe it.
Ash Moon Empress, the ruler of the Ash Moon Dynasty, with many legendary deeds, how could she easily submit?
Moreover, not long ago, the Ash Moon Dynasty joined forces with the Heavenly Essence Dynasty to attack Great Qin.
At that time, it didn't seem like submission at all.
"Hehe, don't believe me?"
The man chuckled and rubbed his head, continuing:
"Don't forget, our Majesty is an unparalleled beauty. Even Ash Moon Empress can't resist such temptation."
"Besides, our Majesty's strength is not as weak as it appears."
"Our Majesty went out recently, probably to the Ash Moon Dynasty. Our Majesty didn't need to do anything, just bewitched Ash Moon Empress!"
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly understood.
So that's how it is!
Our Majesty is truly an exemplary figure!
For a while, many cultivators raised their thumbs in admiration.
Seeing that everyone believed him, the man smirked and lowered his voice:
"I also heard a little rumor. Ash Moon Empress deliberately created a fake Immortal Cave Mansion to lure the major forces into a trap, so that our Majesty can harvest the life essence of the saints without any scruples and forge a powerful weapon."
"Otherwise, how could a mere cultivator in the Empty Void Realm dare to do such a crazy thing?"
"What? There's such a thing?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the tavern was shocked.
"This Ash Moon Empress is so ruthless!"
"She has deceived almost everyone, including the saints of the major sects!"
"Is she not afraid of the retaliation from those forces!?"
Inside the restaurant, discussions were in full swing, creating a lively atmosphere.
The big man nodded along, his face filled with emotion as he said, "This only shows how deeply Ash Moon Empress loves our emperor!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, increasingly convinced that Ash Moon Empress was a woman deeply in love.
Meanwhile, in a private room on the second floor of the restaurant.
A young man dressed in luxurious clothing sat quietly at the table, listening to the noisy voices around him.
His expression remained calm and composed as he gently lifted the teacup on the table and took a sip. A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
In the room, there was also a beautiful Hongyi woman standing respectfully by the side.
However, her seemingly calm demeanor was betrayed by the slight tightening of her delicate hand, revealing her inner turmoil.
Clearly, she was paying close attention to the discussions happening outside.
Jie Hongyi clenched her silver teeth, her lovely face showing a hint of anger.
Indeed, there would always be subjects that matched the emperor's character!
Those people outside were simply unbearable!
They were completely distorting the facts!
How could she, the esteemed Ash Moon Empress, be portrayed as a foolish woman in love?
It was simply absurd!
At that moment, Jie Hongyi suddenly heard whispers coming from downstairs.
"I heard that the reason His Majesty is building the Immortal Palace is because Ash Moon Empress is pregnant, so he is preparing to build the palace and marry Ash Moon Empress."
Suddenly, the big man spoke again, shocking the entire restaurant.
"Pregnant? Is it true?"
"I think it should be true..."
"His Majesty is truly fortunate!"
"Yes, if one has such a woman by their side, their life would be worthwhile."
...
The crowd buzzed with discussions.
Jie Hongyi's eyes widened in astonishment, her face filled with disbelief, and a question mark seemed to appear on her forehead.
She clenched her fists, her delicate jade palms exerting force, and her body trembled slightly.
This was only possible in Great Qin. If someone dared to discuss her like this in Ash Moon Dynasty, they would have been slapped to death by her long ago!
"Don't be agitated." At this moment, a warm and magnetic voice entered Jie Hongyi's ears.
She looked up and coincidentally met Qin Mu's gaze.
Looking at his unparalleled handsome face with distinct features, her heartbeat accelerated.
It was an incredibly impactful face, with a straight nose, sharp eyebrows like sword edges, and black eyes that shimmered with captivating light.
Noble and dignified, it made people involuntarily feel a sense of submission.
Especially his slightly narrowed pupils, as deep as the vast starry sky, making it difficult to fathom, captivating people.
Jie Hongyi stared blankly at this face, her heart pounding.
But she was, after all, the empress of a country, and quickly regained her composure.
"Yo... Your Majesty... Hongyi is not agitated."
Jie Hongyi's face blushed slightly as she lowered her head respectfully.
Seeing this, Qin Mu's lips curled up, revealing a hint of a smile as he calmly said, "Rest assured, I will not marry you, you are not worthy."
Jie Hongyi: "..."
Although these words were hurtful, she should feel fortunate.
After all, it meant that she still had a chance to escape from Qin Mu in the future.
However, for some reason, a faint sense of loss rose in Jie Hongyi's heart.
