I'm modifying myself into the ultimate demon.

Chapter 249 You are the Empress!
Chen Mo had already stood up, staring wide-eyed ahead.

Bai Yujing stood beside Chen Mo, staring ahead.

Suddenly, a loud "buzz" rang out.

In the vast void, the silver domain suddenly expanded to a diameter of several hundred meters, and the Empress and the woman in black sat on opposite sides of the chessboard, beginning their game.

The Empress holds a white chess piece, while the woman in black holds a black chess piece.

The two players made their moves very quickly, almost without thinking.

Awooooo.

Hundreds of fire demons around her went berserk and attacked the Empress's domain.

This attack was different from the previous ones.

Previously, the Flame Demons were leaderless and their attacks were chaotic and disorganized. Now, with the Flame Demon King leading the way, these Flame Demons are like a pack of wolves with a alpha wolf, attacking the area surrounding the Empress wave after wave.

Wave after wave, like an endless tide, never ceasing.

The Flame Demon King, who was leading the group, stood at the rear, his crimson eyes wide, staring at the domain surrounding the Empress. He seemed to be looking for an opportunity to rush over and tear the domain apart instantly.

Boom!

Boom! Boom!
Each attack caused the earth to shake violently.

The domain surrounding the Empress has begun to crack under repeated attacks. Moreover, the cracks are multiplying, as if it could collapse at any moment.

However, the Empress and the woman in black remained unmoved.

They are still playing chess.

It was as if nothing in the world could affect their game of chess anymore.

life and death?

crisis?

It is also unshakeable.

This unusual situation made Chen Mo feel increasingly uneasy. "Xiao Ye, what did you see?"

Bai Yujing shook her head. "I don't see anything. The cracks in the Empress's domain are increasing, and it will collapse in no time. Logically, the Empress should be trying to repair the cracks in her domain. Why is she thinking about playing chess? Could this game possibly save their lives?"

"Help……"

Chen Mo keenly realized something and then said, "I remember the Empress was the first person to go to the Ghost Ship, right? After she went to the Ghost Ship, she was infected with some kind of evil energy. Then she became a twin demon."

Bai Yujing suddenly realized something as well. "That's right. And other people's twin demons all have two incarnations, two demonic bodies. The twin demons of the Great Qian Dynasty are no exception. But the Empress's twin demons are actually in one body. You mean... their chess game is related to twin demons?"

Chen Mo said, "I remember when I first went to the Dao Palace, I saw countless chess pieces scattered in the courtyard and a broken chessboard. It seems that the Empress has a special connection with playing chess."

Bai Yujing also recalled the scene at the Dao Palace that day, "You mean, the Empress used chess to seduce another woman in black?"

Chen Mo said, "That possibility cannot be ruled out. For the Empress and the woman in black, the chess game must have some special connection in terms of rules. The Empress had been suppressing the woman in black before, possibly because of the chess game. So now, under such dangerous circumstances, the Empress is playing the game again. She may be trying to change those rules."

Bai Yujing thought about it more and more and felt that this was possible, and his whole demeanor became much more serious. "It's most likely this. I just don't know what will happen after the Empress's game of chess."

Chen Mo stared intently at the two women in the sky, muttering, "Yes, what will happen after the game? This should be the Empress's last trump card. We must be careful."

Bai Yujing gripped the longsword in his hand, his face wary: "Understood."

Above the void.

The domain surrounding the Empress was cracking open, and countless fire demons were about to rush into it.

The Empress and the woman in black, however, remained unmoved, continuing their steady game of chess.

At that moment, the Empress picked up the white piece and placed it in a special position.

The chessboard suddenly changed.

The woman in black frowned: "Oh? I really didn't expect you to have such a change of heart. Are you going to willingly lose to me?"

The Empress did not answer, only saying, "Time is running out, it's your turn to make a move." The woman in black hesitated, "Back then, you tricked me into making a pact with you. Whoever wins the game can dominate the Twin Demons. Over the years, I have never won against you. Now you are voluntarily conceding the game, yet you harbor malicious intentions."

The Empress did not answer.

The woman in black said, "Now that the Flame Demon King has emerged, even if I control the Twin Demons, it will be difficult to handle the situation. You're trying to make me die in your place. I won't fall for that."

After saying that, the woman in black made a move on the chessboard.

They did not follow the Empress's wishes.

The Empress remained silent and made another concession.

"You're letting me win again? Are you afraid I'll lose? I told you long ago not to lay a hand on Chen Mo and Bai Yujing. Chen Mo is no simple man. You wouldn't listen, and now that something's happened, you want me to take the blame. Don't even think about it." The woman in black angrily rebuked, still refusing to follow the Empress's orders.

The Empress continued to give away pieces, appearing as if she wanted to lose.

The woman in black laughed, "Hahaha, that's hilarious. I didn't expect you to be such a coward. Don't worry, even if I die, I won't let you have your way. You want me to take your place? Impossible. If you don't win, I won't win either."

The woman in black still did not follow the Empress's instructions.

The Empress conceded another move.

The woman in black continued to wander.

The chessboard is completely in disarray.

This is the first time in the past century that the game has become chaotic.

If nobody wants to win, then they'll just wander around aimlessly.

Seeing the Empress keep conceding, the woman in black's smile grew even wider. "I love seeing you back down. This is the first time in so many years. Hahaha."

The chessboard was quickly filled.

Seeing that the situation was about to turn out well, the Empress said, "You're the one who backed down. I've never been an Empress. You're the real Empress. Now that things have gone wrong, only you can step in."

The woman in black was stunned for a moment, then recalled some painful past, and her emotions nearly collapsed. "Yes, I am the Empress, I am the Empress. You are the twin demons infected by the virus. Unfortunately, you have always controlled my body. You have ruined my life. You deserve to die a horrible death."

The Empress said calmly, "What's the use of saying all this now? Life is like a game of chess; once a move is made, there's no going back. Everything you have depends on that one move. Come out, take control of this body, and beg Chen Mo for forgiveness. Perhaps he can join forces with you. That way, neither of us can die."

The woman in black was stunned.

The Empress said, "If you can beat me once, you can beat me countless times. Because the winner sets the rules. You can change the rules of the game, but I can't beat you. Now, you have a chance to control your destiny and take control of your own life. Don't you cherish it? There are only two pieces left. If you place them on the center, you will win."

The woman in black gripped the chess piece, her hands and feet trembling.

He was sweating profusely and his face was pale.

Every word the Empress uttered struck the softest and most desired part of her heart.

She was suppressed by the Empress for a hundred years; she was the true Empress.

Now they have the opportunity to take control of their own destiny.

How could she not be excited?
How can you not want to take control of your destiny?
Finally, after much deliberation, the woman in black placed the chess piece on the center position.

Click.

When the chess piece is placed, it's as if fate has already been sealed.

The next moment, the woman in black raised her head and looked at the Empress: "I won."

The empress suddenly laughed, a maniacal laugh, "Hahahaha, you won, you finally won."

The woman in black looked uneasy: "What are you laughing at?"

Empress: "I laugh at your foolishness. Who told you that winning gives you the right to dominate?"

The woman in black exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that right?"
