1975 – Devil’s Voice of the Ancient Era

During this time, Chi Wuyao had been trying her hardest to find out what Mo Beichen’s memories of the Spatial Artifact really were.

The unnatural stirring and tingling of the Nirvana Devil Soul time and again had convinced her beyond any doubt that that Spatial Artifact was an extremely powerful and unusual presence, even for a Devil Emperor.

It had also been shown that he was probably connected to the Devils of old, only it was too late for her to get the most accurate answer before Yun Che headed for the Abyss, and she could only give him the warning.

“Good.” Looking at Yun Che’s incomparably solemn promise, Chi Wuyao lightly nodded before slowly saying the last thing he had to promise.

“Alright, the third thing…”

A snow-white hand reached up slightly and grabbed Yun Che’s wrist, touching his fingers to his forehead as he looked in slight dismay.

“I want you to read all the memories of my life in their entirety!”

Yun Che’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and he withdrew his hand without a moment’s hesitation: “No! That is not possible”.

The nature of the human was complex, changing and unpredictable.

Even the greatest and most noble man can have a dark side to his humanity, and his memories can harbor secrets and sleaze that he doesn’t want people to know about.

It is impossible for anyone, not even the closest and most trusted person in your life, to be willing to let that person peek into all your memories.

The palm that Yun Che had consciously shaken was back in Chi Wuyao’s hand in the next instant.

Yun Che’s reaction did not surprise her, and she looked at Yun Che with her Devil Eyes, her eyes as calm as the silent sky: “I hope that it is not Yun Che who accepts these three things, but Emperor Yun!”

“The Yun Emperor, who decides the future of the entire current world with his hands!”

“An Emperor’s decision must be free of all selfishness and personal feelings!”

“…” Yun Che froze on the spot, and his palm was no longer able to avoid it.

Chi Wuyao said softly: “Growth is not a one-time thing, like Zhou Xuzi, Nan Wansheng, Qi Tianli, these through ten thousand years or even a hundred thousand years of vicissitudes bypassing the world supreme-ruler Emperor, it also has its narrowness and flaws. And you, although you are an Emperor of a world, although you have had countless ups and downs in your life, ultimately you only have 30 years of experience.”

“And yet you have to go alone against the Abyss which is a million times more difficult than the current world.”

“And as the Empress of this World, I have an inescapable obligation to allow you to grow in the most extreme way in the shortest possible time.”

Chi Wuyao’s voice suddenly slowed down at this point: “Everyone in the Northern Divine Region knows that I came from a mere mortal woman who grew up in the dark sludge of the lowest level of the Northern Divine Region where even the dark profound beasts did not bother to hunt.”

“But in the end, step by step, I became one of the Three Emperors who ruled the Northern Divine Region. Today, I am even the Empress who rules the entire supreme-ruler Realm.”

“No woman in this world is above me.”

Chi Wuyao’s gaze slowly lowered and was no longer looking at Yun Che.

“There are countless dilemmas, critical situations, desperate situations, and bleeding hearts, and what I most want you to see is what happens in front of all kinds of people and situations.”

Chi Wuyao continued: “Many of these tactics are ruthless, cruel, and dirty enough to go beyond the limits of your imagination. Specifically… you are, deep down, a person extremely attached to feelings, while I, on the contrary, am the most expert in using them, and even benefactors who have saved my life and taught me a lesson were stepped on for me without hesitation as a stepping stone.”

Yun Che “…”

His Devil Eyes were slightly closed, and his Devil Voice was very clear: “After feeling what I have experienced in this life, I may be disgusted by it, but in any case…”

“No.” Yun Che cut her off and shook his head without hesitation: “You are my Empress, and you are my trophy. You and I have been inseparable for a long time. Your life is part of mine, so how could I be ‘bow’ of it?

Chi Wuyao raised her eyes and smiled faintly, “If that’s the case, then there’s no reason for you to continue to refuse.”

With those words, he turned his white wrist and drove Yun Che’s palm gently onto his own forehead, his Devil Pupils releasing pure and endless Dark Soul light…

Yun Che’s five fingers twitched unconsciously, but only for a moment before he stopped trying to resist and took a deep breath, then closed his eyes and concentrated, allowing his consciousness to be drawn into the Chi Wuyao Soul Sea, which it was completely open to him.

Chi Wuyao’s life, full of endless ups and downs, poured into her world without reservation.

As she had said, growth doesn’t happen overnight. Although Yun Che was already the Yun Emperor, her experience was still too superficial and the current World is practically being controlled by her.

In the Other World, he would have no one by his side, how could he face the Abyss alone?

And the experience of his life was the most brutal thing he could think of to push him to mature.

I could not predict the effectiveness of this method. The growth that comes from this kind of brute force may not be real growth at all. But at least, when faced with different situations in the future, he would be able to choose from his experience and respond accordingly.

When to show weakness to your enemy…

When to be cruel and ruthless…

When to be deceitful…

When to be “honest”…

When to advance, when to retreat, when to turn a companion who has lived and died with her at the last moment into a shield of flesh and blood…

As for its ability to spy on and control people, it is not something that can be easily “transferred”. It would have been enough for Chi Wuyao if Yun Che had truly understood one out of a hundred.

—

Three days passed like this.

But to Yun Che, it was as if he had lived an incredibly long life.

At one point, he opened his eyes and stared at Chi Wuyao for so long without moving that he forgot to remove his palm from Chi Wuyao’s forehead.

Other people’s stories and descriptions, however detailed and elaborate, are not as good as what one sees and feels with one’s own eyes.

Chi Wuyao was born from the humblest of beginnings and became a powerful Devil Empress during the harshest of times in the Northern Divine Region.

But what was most striking to Yun Che was the tricks and ruses he used.

It is as if countless devilish dark threads were ever present in his body, silently coiling around the body of every being that appears in his world.

None could escape.

More than ever, he clearly realized that if the Chi Wuyao before him had not chosen to become his Empress then, but simply used him as a pawn…

…………

She was his Devil Empress, so there was no what if this had happened.

“This moment is pretty much what I predicted.” Chi Wuyao slowly opened her eyes and looked at Yun Che who had been in a dazed state, “During the days to come, digest as much as you can that might be of use to you. I will order so that no one bothers you.”

By the time he finished speaking, his gaze was already averted as he silently turned his body and prepared to leave.

His voice was calm and even, but in reality, the apprehension within her ebbed and flowed several times beyond what she had expected.

Her lack of scruples over the years was so infinitely beyond what anyone could imagine that anyone who had witnessed even the slightest hint of her would have been terrified of her.

Before doing this, she was prepared for Yun Che to be disgusted and afraid of her. But at this moment, all the psychological accumulation that she had done before was still completely disintegrated.

The fact that he told Yun Che to digest quietly was in fact his fleeing in a panic.

Now Chi Wuyao was no longer the powerful Northern Devil Empress; she had a weakness, and a huge one.

But as soon as she took a step, an arm gently wrapped around her waist.

Yun Che hugged her from behind and whispered in her ear, “There is no need to say thanks between you and me, since what you have given me is too much… what I have now will be my greatest support in the Abyss.”

The corner of Chi Wuyao’s lips twitched slightly as her eyes misted over.

With that, it was enough.

…………

Leaving Yun Che alone, Chi Wuyao walked out of the Imperial Palace, staring off into space as the cold wind blew against her face.

Actively imbuing someone with the memories of their long life was something no one could do, and certainly not a pleasant thing to do.

In the process, it was also as if her Soul Sea had been directly and roughly shaken and washed away, and not even she, Chi Wuyao, was able to completely calm down in a short time.

However, he did not show all of his memories.

For example, the missing Shen Xi, with the girl named “Yun Xi” who died at the hands of Long Bai before she could see the light of day.

The ripples in space next to Chi Wuyao appeared in the form of a delicate woman.

“Master… is something wrong?”

Hua Jin had been with Chi Wuyao for many years, and he knew that she made his Devil Empress, who was as sophisticated as a night abyss, look so abnormal.

It must be a matter of great importance beyond belief, so he couldn’t help but appear to ask about it.

Chi Wuyao smiled and shook her head: “Don’t worry, it’s just that my Soul Sea is too chaotic and it’s hard to calm it down for a while, it’s not something strange… Ss!”

Chi Wuyao’s face looked pained, and her body leaned forward as she trembled.

“Teacher?” Hua Jin was startled and rushed forward to support her.

Chi Wuyao’s face seemed pale, and her Soul Sea seemed to be wildly pierced by countless steel needles.

In the depths of his soul, which was filled with immense pain, a hissing voice from an ancient world suddenly resounded.

“If the Profound Mirror* and the Devil Pearl had not been left behind, how could this have happened…” (Note: Profound has many translations, they can be: Dark, incomprehensible, underworld, hell etc)

“How could this have happened!”

“How could this have happened! ~~”

……

The screams were incomparably confused and distant, with endless devilish power that could destroy all ages.
