Is there any hope for me, who proposed to the world-destroying empress at the very beginning?

For the first time, a look of surprise appeared in Gu Bo's uneasy eyes!

I was shocked, quite shocked!

Upon seeing the jade pendant at Su Liang's waist, her overwhelming aura vanished, and her thoughts drifted back to the distant past.

That was a prophecy that arose at the time of her birth.

Her future husband will possess another jade pendant, similar in size to her own.

The young man before her... was actually her destined husband?!

how can that be!

An Mengyou looked again and became even more certain that the jade pendant on Su Liang's waist was exactly the same as the jade pendant she always wore.

Years later, An Mengyou thought she had forgotten about the incident, but now that she saw the jade pendant beside Su Liang, she realized that she had always kept it in her heart.

How could I forget so easily!

As for why the jade pendant ended up in Su Liang's hands, An Mengyou couldn't guess, and she wouldn't ask.

Fate determines everything.

When something happens, all you need to consider is the consequences.

She completely concealed her presence and began to scrutinize Su Liang.

Unlike her previous tests of the overwhelming power of peerless geniuses, An Mengyou was now sizing up a man.

The carriage curtain was lifted again, and Jun Hongyan appeared outside the carriage. She didn't understand why An Mengyou had suddenly restrained her aura.

When she looked over, she inadvertently noticed the strange look in An Mengyou's eyes.

How can one woman not understand another woman's thoughts?

Jun Hongyan immediately frowned, her eyes filled with wariness.

Something's wrong with her!

"It's a pity she's too young."

After looking at it for a long time, An Mengyou finally sighed softly.

These words, though spoken, seemed to carry a thousand lingering sorrows within.

Finding a husband like that at my current age seems a bit too much...

She didn't even care about Jun Hongyan's threatening gaze.

This left Su Liang completely bewildered, utterly confused about what had happened.

There's only one thing: I'm not small at all!

Why do you all like to talk about trivial matters?

however.

To his surprise, An Mengyou's attitude seemed to have undergone a complete transformation.

Even though they are still high and mighty, compared to their previous indifference, they now seem to have more human touch, especially between men and women.

A pair of beautiful eyes quietly scrutinized Su Liang, as if trying to see right through him.

It was curiosity, or perhaps an indescribable emotion.

But soon, An Mengyou's melancholy turned into a serious expression.

"Should we make a move?"

Su Liang thought that what was bound to happen was finally coming.

But this time, he not only didn't feel any pressure, but was also surprised to find that An Mengyou floated up to him.

An Mengyou didn't take Jun Hongyan to heart, or perhaps she simply ignored Jun Hongyan's existence.

Before Su Liang could react, she leaned down and pressed herself against him.

The two were of similar height, but at this moment, An Mengyou subtly overshadowed Su Liang with her tall figure.

She turned her head and her gaze quietly fell on his neck.

With a slight parting of her silver teeth, she bit down on Su Liang's neck.

Su Liang immediately gasped, and the faint fragrance of An Mengyou filled his nostrils.

However, before he could fully appreciate it, the pain in his neck and the sensation of An Mengyou's delicate body rushed into Su Liang's body.

It felt tingly, itchy, and slightly stinging.

He wanted to resist, but he couldn't muster the slightest strength, not from fear, but from some other inexplicable emotion.

With the goddess pressed close to him and a future empress staring intently from behind, Su Liang was caught in a pincer movement.

I'm the victim here!

After the touch, An Mengyou easily released Su Liang, a few drops of bright red blood remaining between her pearly teeth, adding a touch of bewitching allure to her ethereal beauty.

She pointed to the wound left on Su Liang's neck, her lips parted slightly, and she spoke softly.

"You are too young now, too young to even understand me!"

"I have planted an imprint within you. You only have one year."

"Only by reaching the Profound Realm can you save your life, and at the same time, make me acknowledge you..."

After An Mengyou finished speaking slowly, she quietly looked up at the sky.

She never paid any attention to Su Liang again, even after learning about her betrothed; her mind remained indifferent and calm.

She has already said what she needed to say, and knowing what she shouldn't have said would be pointless.

This is a gamble, a high-stakes gamble that will determine my future.

After saying that, An Mengyou turned around and once again took flight on her bare feet.

It comes quickly and goes quickly.

Throughout the entire process, Su Lian's identity as a demon was never mentioned.

Because it has

It doesn't matter anymore.

Compared to that prophecy, any anomalies can be postponed for now.

She wouldn't mind giving Su Liang a chance earlier.

Watching An Mengyou's figure disappear into the night sky, Jun Hongyan, inside the carriage, had a face as cold as frost, especially her phoenix eyes, which flashed with hostile fire.

No woman in the world has ever dared to openly flirt with her young man to her face.

Even the most powerful female ruler in the world, the goddess An Mengyou who protects the human race, cannot do it.

But, unfortunately, all of this has already happened.

For a moment, she even considered disregarding the consequences and forcibly keeping him there.

outside.

Su Liang was also filled with a sense of loss.

He inexplicably provoked such a woman, and it was clearly because of the nameless jade pendant found in the national treasury, as the system had previously mentioned.

He saved his life? Not really.

What would happen if we didn't have this jade pendant today?

He gently stroked the bite mark on his neck and couldn't help but think of An Mengyou's words before: reach the Tongxuan Realm within a year... What exactly does she want to do?

I can't believe it, and I can't understand it.

The only thing Su Liang knew was—

If he had enough power, he would never have allowed An Mengyou to flirt with him so brazenly!

Unfortunately, he hasn't even reached the Life Palace Realm yet.

He became stronger, but his strength was still not enough to pull down this goddess who resided high in the heavens.

The sense of accomplishment from defeating Daozi and crushing the five wheels of the Life Palace had completely vanished.

"Let's go."

Jun Hongyan was equally unhappy.

Even though he tried his best to suppress his emotions, they inevitably leaked out in his speech.

It takes a year to reach the Profound Realm?

You really underestimate my little man!

One year from now, I'll find a way to get you into his bed. Then we'll see if you can still maintain your goddess-like pride.

That evening, Su Liang returned to the princess's residence.

On the surface, he remained the same as always, but in secret, he had begun to intensify his cultivation.

However, for him, mundane cultivation had little effect.

One afternoon, Su Liang sat cross-legged on the bed, circulating his spiritual energy for several weeks before raising his hand again to take out the nameless jade pendant.

In the past few days, whenever he had free time, he devoted himself to observing the jade pendant that had changed An Mengyou's mind.

Unlike the initial cluelessness, there has been considerable progress recently.

Su Liang first held the jade pendant in his palm, and as he slowly channeled spiritual energy into it, a faint stinging sensation came from the bite mark (curse mark) on his neck.

This stinging sensation caused the jade pendant to vibrate, subtly shimmering and gleaming.

After a flash of light, a warm current quietly enveloped Su Liang's body, eventually converging on the bite mark on his neck. A series of cyclical processes were closely linked together.

At the same time, whenever the contact occurred, Su Liang could always feel a surge of intense heat.

And that was precisely what he had overlooked, or rather ignored for a long time—the Cloud Marsh Earth Fire!

"Finally... if I'm not mistaken."
