Mission: Seduce the Master!

Chapter 213: What a womanizer you are!

The moments of a mortal's life are like minutes in the eyes of an Immortal. For Yu Longfeng, this quote was a direct reflection of her life. But who would have thought that she would now be eagerly awaiting a meeting with an annoying young man?

"Hmm, this kid has really raised his level," she thought, as she gently ran her fingertips over the petals of a rose, slowly activating the formations: "Following the instructions... it should be like this..."

The Empress was focused on drawing formations in her garden. Here, there were flowers of all sorts, kinds, and qualities. There were even flowers that were considered extinct. This garden alone was worth at least hundreds of millions of Spiritual Stones.

"Oh? It seems he has arrived..." Yu Longfeng thought, sensing the aura of a Soul Integration cultivator in her palace. She smiled, removing her finger and turning her head towards the garden entrance.

As expected, a few minutes later, a man dressed in a white robe with long sleeves, devoid of any embellishments, appeared at the entrance. It seemed that such a simple attire did not diminish his natural beauty but rather complemented it.

"Hmm, who would have thought that the young master would grace me with his presence," said the Empress, appearing indifferent. She sat down on a bench and patted the spot next to her: "Please, have a seat."

"Oh?..."

Although Xie Qing felt that the Empress was behaving quite strangely, he still nodded and sat down next to her. As it happened, the bench was quite small, causing the youth to press his hips tightly against Yu Longfeng's.

"..." The youth fell silent, not knowing what to say: "What an awkward atmosphere..."

Yu Longfeng also remained silent. Surprisingly, all her pre-planned thoughts were flushed down the toilet by the sensation of Xie Qing's firm hips. Although she had no such strange fetishes, her heart burned with a strange flame when she felt the firmness of his hands, which unconsciously touched her waist.

Being an Empress, she had always kept her distance from men, and all her servants were women. Therefore, she had never been so close to a man. And considering all these factors, ladies and gentlemen... we have found virgin ancient remains.

Yu Longfeng turned her head to the right, pretending to watch the stream, although her face was slightly flushed. Xie Qing felt as if he was in a tiger's cage. He was sweating.

"Why did this woman invite me here? Moreover, she hasn't said a word. Could it be that she...?" Xie Qing took on a shocked expression but quickly regained his composure. The youth patted his chest: "No, how could I be so naive? Even the Master, who never allowed men near her, is quite impressionable. How could the Empress fall in love with me for some strange reasons?"

Yu Longfeng coughed, feeling as if she had been struck by an invisible arrow.

"..."

"..."

These two... just remained silent. To be honest, it was getting tiresome, so let's add some spice.

"Hmm?"

Yu Longfeng suddenly felt a slight dizziness. Before she could react, her body leaned to the left, and then...

Puf!

"What?!"

Xie Qing almost spat blood when he saw the Empress land with the back of her head on his groin. Now she was lying on his knees... what the hell?!

"Are you alright?" Xie Qing asked, seeing the confusion in the Empress's eyes.

"Eh? What happened to me... ?!?!?!" Yu Longfeng initially felt confused, but upon seeing her own posture, she was shocked. Her first attempt to get up was unsuccessful. She returned to her original position.

Xie Qing watched her and felt that Yu Longfeng looked very cute.

"She is usually so cold... and now she looks embarrassed," he thought, and a faint smile appeared on his face. He placed his hand on the Empress's shoulder and said: "It seems you are not feeling well. You can lie down and rest like this."

"Thank you..."

Yu Longfeng agreed with embarrassment. Her body had suddenly become weak, and even the slightest movement consumed her Qi. Therefore, the woman could only lie on the youth's knees.

Gradually, she began to relax. The scent emanating from Xie Qing was pleasant and soothing, so much so that after five minutes, the Empress fell asleep.

"..."

Xie Qing didn't know what to say, seeing Yu Longfeng's sleeping face. It was peaceful, with a hint of a smile at the corners of her mouth.

"Cuteness, 100 points," the youth thought with a slight laugh. Who would have thought that the Empress, a formidable figure of the past and present, would have such a funny face?

"And also, who would have thought that she would be lying on my knees and sleeping?" Xie Qing was speechless.

***

Five hours later...

Yu Longfeng got up from Xie Qing's knees, took a few steps, and fell to her knees, clutching her heart.

"Your Majesty?" Xie Qing said, puzzled, not understanding her reaction.

"Be quiet... and not a word about what you saw. Understood?" Yu Longfeng said sternly, not turning her head.

"Uh... okay," Xie Qing grimaced, seeing her behavior: "It seems she is too embarrassed to talk... I need to change the subject."

Xie Qing sighed.

"Empress, I have been in secluded cultivation for a year and know very little. Can you enlighten me?" Xie Qing asked, getting up from the bench.

"Hmm? Indeed... ahem-ahem," Yu Longfeng nodded and stood up, regaining her usual cold demeanor: "Come, there have indeed been many changes."

Walking together with the Empress to the veranda, they sat down at a round table. From a distance, servants approached, carrying a basket of fruits, a tea set, and desserts. In a very short time—just two minutes—the table was set with fragrant desserts, and small tea cups were filled with tea.

"How quick," Xie Qing praised.

The servants bowed and left, leaving them alone. The Empress began to speak.

"I heard that you found a recipe for a pill that will help us send spies inside the barrier," Yu Longfeng began, sipping her tea: "Well, there have been initial successful experiments. Theoretically, the pill works fine, but in practice, Liu Yang has not tried it yet."

"Not tried? Why?"

"Well... Liu Yang does not want to test it on people, so she is looking for a suitable animal," Yu Longfeng replied with slight embarrassment.

"The reason... is so trivial?" the youth was speechless. Of course, Liu Yang's kindness was admirable, and he himself was touched. However, should one hesitate when facing a matter of life and death?

It seemed that Yu Longfeng shared his thoughts, but apparently, she could not persuade Liu Yang.

"Miss Liu Yang indeed has a kind heart, but I cannot let her efforts go to waste," Xie Qing said, tapping the table. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the Empress: "I am willing to test the pill on myself. That would be better, wouldn't it?"

"I think you've suggested the worst option," the Empress was speechless and, seeing the confusion on the youth's face, explained: "Your Master... she will tear apart the entire capital if you get hurt. And I don't need that kind of happiness even for money..."

"True..."

Xie Qing rolled his eyes, crossing his arms over his chest. He could imagine Xu Mei's exaggerated reaction.

"However, I still insist. I don't want to delay the response to the devilish cultivator any further," he continued, still insisting on his point: "Lu Yin, the disciple of Miss Liu Yang, is currently in the capital. If the Empress does not object, we can go to the Sect of Nine Pills together."

"Sounds like a plan."

***

Lu Yin trembled. She sat in her room. And before her...

"How are you, Lu Yin? I hope your fellow disciples haven't been bothering you."

"Hmm, Liu Yang disciple. I remember her being very small."

"It seems to me that you remember Miss Liu Yang herself being small..."

"Rude boy, I'm not that old. You're as impolite as your Master."

"Understood, but... 'not that old'? Are you implying that Miss Liu Yang is so old that... umm..."

"Don't talk nonsense, idiot."

Lu Yin was speechless, watching as the eternally cold Empress irritably covered Xie Qing's mouth. Even someone of her status had only seen the Empress once in her life, and that was thanks to Liu Yang. And her appearance then was as cold as a block of ice. But now... Why does her face look so lively?

"Wait, they can't be...," Lu Yin felt a shiver run down her spine: "Could Her Majesty be my rival?!"

Lu Yin nearly fainted from shock. How could this be?! Why does this guy attract such abnormal personalities?

"Hmm? Lu Yin? Lu Yin!"

"Ha... um... yes?!"

The girl snapped out of her thoughts and saw that Xie Qing had moved to sit next to her. He gently patted her back, showing a concerned expression.

"What's wrong? Did someone hurt you?"

Lu Yin gritted her teeth and screamed in her thoughts:

"Yes, and it's you, bastard! What a womanizer you are!"
