The villain daughter did all kinds of things

“The paths you Western magicians take are very different from those of us Eastern spiritual practitioners. I don’t know if you can understand what I mean… Simply put, I am the Dao Ancestor’s inner demon, and also her obsession. I was cut out of her body three years ago and came here to seek liberation.”

"Inner demons...obsessions?"

Emery took a deep breath:

"Then it seems my other guess was right. You are her alter ego? Came to the Federation to fulfill some regrets she missed? Or some unfulfilled wishes?"

"Little fairy, you are indeed clever, you understand so quickly... Even your true form would probably like you very much."

Lian smiled happily, while simultaneously scraping Amelie's body repeatedly with the jade ruyi:

"If you are willing to join the immortal sect, you can become the second senior sister of the immortal sect. After your original body leaves in the future, you can take charge of the immortal sect together with your senior sister... It just so happens that Tong'er is brave and unparalleled, and you, little fairy, are clever and cunning. You should be able to cooperate very well."

"I'm sorry, but I have no interest in cultivating immortality."

Emery decisively refused outright, and then continued to ask:

"So? What wishes or regrets of your original self do you want to fulfill?"

"..."

This time, Lian remained silent for a moment, and didn't use the jade ruyi to scrape the black stockings on Amelie's bunny girl uniform anymore. After a while, instead of answering, she asked:

"How much do you really know about my true form, which is the Dao Ancestor as you perceive her to be? Do you know what happened before she became the Dao Ancestor? Do you know what she was going to do after that?"

"This……"

Amelie thought for a moment before saying uncertainly:

"I know some things, but not much. They are mostly legends I got from various sources and my own speculations."

"I know that Dao Ancestor's real name is Ji Yue. She and Ji Yang, the founding emperor of the Tianyun Empire, are siblings. Ten thousand years ago, during a chaotic world, they could not bear to see the human race oppressed by demons and beasts, so they led humanity to rise up and fight back, eventually establishing the powerful Tianyun Empire. The elder brother, Ji Yang, became the emperor of the empire and ruled the world, while the younger sister, Ji Yue, established the Immortal Sect to restrain all cultivators. She was later known as Dao Ancestor."

"As for what the Dao Ancestor wants to do next... it's actually quite easy to guess, isn't it? The Dao Ancestor has been stuck at the limit of the Enlightenment stage for nearly ten thousand years, and it should be close to the limit of her patience. She will definitely try to force a breakthrough, even if the method is crazy, she will not be able to resist trying it."

"Hmm... Generally speaking, these rumors and your speculations, little fairy, are all correct."

Lian nodded gently, and the jade ruyi spun in her hand again, just like the pen in the hand of a student on Earth in her previous life:

"But none of the rumors mentioned that the Dao Ancestor didn't actually have such grand ideas at the beginning; it was just that later rumors embellished her image."

"At first, Daozu was certainly a cultivation genius, but she didn't like cultivation very much. Instead, she was very interested in cooking and dreamed of becoming a cook and opening a restaurant with her brother."

"As a result... the restaurant did open, and because of Ji Yue's excellent cooking skills, it became very popular. Even powerful monsters often came as guests."

"However, this good time did not last long. Ten thousand years ago, the Eastern Continent was in great chaos. Humans did not even have their own countries and lived together in tribes with the monster tribes... Their status was slightly better than when you Federation people were slaves to the elves, but not by much."

"So it is conceivable that Ji Yue's restaurant was quickly seized and ruined. Afterwards, her tribe was caught up in a battle with powerful monsters and destroyed. Apart from Ji Yue and her brother Ji Yang, no one in the entire tribe survived."

"Ji Yue was furious. She vowed to become the strongest, to establish absolute order with absolute power, and to restrain the strong from trampling on the lives of the weak."

Lian sighed as she finished speaking, glanced at Amelie again, and began scraping the jade ruyi in her hand against Amelie's body once more.

"In order to establish a new order, Ji Yue had no choice but to give up her love of cooking and devote all her energy to cultivation, constantly becoming stronger."

"This might sound unpleasant, but Ji Yue is a genius, a cultivation genius even more powerful than you, little fairy."

"Little fairy, your talent is already something people can only look up to, but your Dao, which is what you call your concept of magic, is only recently developed, right? Do you know how long it took Lian from the time she started to cultivate seriously to the time she comprehended her own Dao?"

Although it was a question, Lian simultaneously held up three fingers, hinting at the answer.

Emery exclaimed in surprise:

"It only took three years? No wonder he is the Dao Ancestor."

She herself has been practicing magic under the old lich for more than ten years now, which is already a super genius compared to those great mages who take hundreds of years to establish their concept of magic.

But to my surprise, Lian chuckled again, her voice brimming with barely suppressed smugness:

"Three years? You underestimate her too much... She only used three months, after seriously going into seclusion to cultivate for three months, and she went from being a weakling who wasn't even at the Enlightenment stage to mastering her own Great Dao."

"!"

This time, Emery didn't even utter a surprised exclamation; all she wanted to do was swear.

"Alright, little fairy, there's no need to be sad."

Seeing that Emerald's mood had instantly soured, Lian reached out her other hand and pinched Emerald's cheek to comfort her:

"As long as you don't compare yourself to the Dao Ancestor, the little demon is still quite powerful... In the past ten thousand years, there are definitely fewer than a handful of people whose talent can rival yours."

"...Even if you comfort me like that, I still feel really upset!"

Emery could only mutter another complaint before continuing to ask:

"And then? After a period of serious cultivation, the Dao Ancestor emerged from seclusion, swept across the East with invincible power, and established the Tianyun Empire?"

"Pretty much. After that, it was pretty much the same as the legend."

Lian shrugged:

"The Dao Ancestor used absolute force to kill the demonic beasts that oppressed humans, and then united the humans who had come to her aid. She selected some talented people from among them and taught them to cultivate the Dao, thus gradually establishing the prototype of the immortal sect."

"After the northern part of the entire Eastern Continent was almost completely pacified, the Dao Ancestor discovered that she had many, many followers, enough to establish a powerful nation."

"But Daozu was only a genius in cultivation. She had no talent for management and was completely uninterested in it. So she put her brother on the throne and made him the founding emperor of the Tianyun Empire."

"After the establishment of the Tianyun Empire, the order that the Dao Ancestor wanted was finally established. People who run restaurants no longer have to worry about their restaurants being forcibly taken away, and the homes that people have worked hard to build will no longer be easily destroyed by the battles of the strong."

"But by then, the Dao Ancestor was already the Dao Ancestor, no longer the little cook Ji Yue who loved cooking. She longed to open another restaurant and run it herself, or even cook food herself and sell it to customers, but she couldn't do that because she was the Dao Ancestor."

"This... is the Dao Ancestor's first regret."

"..."

After listening patiently, Emery breathed a sigh of relief:

"So, Lian, as a heart demon separated from the Dao Ancestor to make up for regrets, the first thing you did after arriving in the Federation was to open this Drunken Red Pavilion?"

"Yes."

Lian smiled and nodded, then couldn't help but complain:

"Speaking of which... your Allen Federation is really in a bad state right now! I originally just wanted to open a restaurant that only sells food, and I didn't want to do brothel business, but I didn't expect that it wouldn't work."

"Because the approval standards for the catering industry and the entertainment industry are different, and the competent authorities are also different, those people in Sphinxgate in charge of the catering industry are simply idiots! I submitted my application to open a store four times and it was rejected every time!"

"On the contrary, it is very easy to open a brothel in the entertainment industry. I wrote an application saying that I wanted to open an oriental-style brothel, that is, a brothel, and it was approved directly. They even gave me a lot of policy benefits."

"There was no other way, so I opened the Drunken Red Pavilion brothel, but mainly sold food... It turns out that my cooking skills were indeed quite good. Although all the girls in my shop were very beautiful, they were never as popular as the food in my shop."

"As the business of Drunken Red Mansion became better and better, making a fortune every day, I made up for the first regret of the Dao Ancestor back then, and made her state of mind even more perfect."

"Is that really how it is?"

Emerald had naturally figured this out long ago, but she still had some doubts about why Rei would interfere in the election and why she would be tricked into coming to her home and tied up like this:

"And then what? Why did you get involved in the election?"

"Of course, it's to make up for another regret of the original body."

Lian shrugged:

"Isn't it clearly recorded in the legends? When Dao Ancestor swept across the world and established the Tianyun Empire, she relied on her invincible power, that is, absolute martial force... So Dao Ancestor wanted to experience again the feeling of ascending to the highest power by relying on wisdom."

"And since it just so happens that your Allen Federation is due for a change of president, I have decided to randomly select a lucky candidate and, without using force as much as possible, put him in the position of the new president."

Chapter 311 Seize the only chance of victory! As long as we can win!

"Because you swept across the world with absolute force, do you want to try using wisdom to reach the pinnacle of power? As expected of you, this regret is quite arrogant."

Emerald's bunny ears, which could sense her emotions, twitched twice. Her body, bound by ropes and suspended in the air, twisted slightly, and she asked with some curiosity:

"But if you want to reach the pinnacle of power, why the President? You should know who the real master of the Federation is, right? The President is just a high-ranking employee... If you really want to obtain the highest power in the Federation, shouldn't you marry me, help me become the head of the Melson family, help me annex Lohid, and finally rule the world as my wife?"

"Pfft... You little imp, you're quite the dreamer, aren't you? You really dare to dream big."

Lian was immediately amused, and used the jade ruyi to lift Amelie's chin, then blew a breath onto Amelie's face:

"I don't know why you seem to have this strange misunderstanding, but... neither the original body nor I am a naive and innocent good person, but we're not bad people either, right? In fact, the Dao Ancestor is the savior of mankind in the legends of the Tianyun Empire."

So that's it~~

Lian tightened her grip on the jade ruyi, lifting Amelie's elegant and alluring face even higher, so that she could look directly into those azure eyes:

"I'm just here to have some fun in your Federation and make up for some regrets in my heart. I'm not really here to overthrow the Federation's order and cause widespread suffering... So taking down a president for fun is fine, there's no need to touch your two great families."

"After all... you were able to force that soybean sprout to the negotiating table back then, so you must have some means to fight against me, just at a high price, right? Although I'm not afraid of you, I don't want to commit too much bloodshed, so playing a game of raising a great ruler is fine... Or is it that you, little fairy, actually really want to see the earth burn and rivers of blood flow?"

"...Hmph, that sounds nice, saying you're not a bad person."

Emery turned her face away, still muttering defiantly:

"What about what happened to Sister Carrie? And what about all those other noblewomen like Mrs. Hewlett who were played with by you? You traitor! You big cow! You wife-obsessed man!"

"That's right, so what if I like to be submissive to my wife?"

Lian didn't care at all, and instead moved her face even closer to Emerald:

"If you, little imp, marry Yulia, you won't be able to escape either. I will definitely do this and that to you in front of Yulia, enjoying your shyness and humiliation, and also enjoying her wishing she could beat me to a pulp but being powerless to do so... It will definitely be very interesting."

"Hmph, pervert."

Emery showed a disgusted look:

"So what? You enjoy toying with your wife so much, is it to make up for your regrets? And now you've tied me up and hung here, is that it too? Are you regretting that as a Dao Ancestor you can't do perverted things? So you've decided to indulge yourself a bit before you go completely insane?"

"more or less."

Lian wasn't embarrassed at all. Not only did she nod in agreement, but she also smiled and continued to tell Amelie a dark history about the Dao Ancestor:

"I've been single for over ten thousand years, and now that I'm about to break through to the next level, what's wrong with deciding to find a few more partners to have some fun with? Besides, I actually had someone I liked back then, but unfortunately she ended up becoming my sister-in-law. And after she married my brother, I liked her even more. So... that's probably how I became the perverted Cao Cao you're talking about."

Okay, let's not talk about this anymore~~~~

Lian took a step back, retrieved the jade ruyi that was holding Emery's chin, and yawned in a rather languid manner:

"In short, my first two regrets, opening a very popular restaurant and climbing to the pinnacle of power without using force, can be considered as fulfilled. Now only the last one remains—to enjoy the human pleasures called love."

"Although I have tasted the flavors of many beauties, how can they compare to you, little enchantress? You are the best woman in this country, and my ultimate goal."

"...So, by playing with me, you can finally satisfy your last regret?"

Amelie raised an eyebrow, somewhat skeptical, and said:

Really?

"Of course it's true."

Lian sat back down in her armchair, resting her chin on her hand and smiling.

"Although I am not the original body, the original body is actually me... well, I should say that I am the human side of the original body. Now that the original body has been completely severed from me, it should have become a puppet that only knows how to cultivate and pursue power."

"Little fairy, didn't you already guess? Her true form has been stuck in a cultivation realm for tens of thousands of years and has completely lost patience."

"She believed that the reason she kept failing to break through was because she still had humanity. So this time, she cut out her humanity, which gave birth to me. And she made me, like a female ghost with unfulfilled wishes, to fulfill the regrets in her life."

"Once all these regrets are fulfilled, I should disappear from the world along with my original human nature, just like the souls that have passed away after their wishes have been fulfilled... At that time, my original Dao heart will be completely perfected, making it easier for her to complete her breakthrough. At least, that's what my original Dao believes."

Snapped.

After Lian finished speaking, she snapped her fingers, loosening the ropes binding Amelie and freeing her.

Emerald quickly stood up, taking the rope that had just bound her body and sealed her magic in her hand and examining it closely. She found it to be just an ordinary rope, and her voice inevitably turned bitter:

"This... is just an ordinary rope? I thought it was some kind of powerful magic weapon."

"In other people's hands, it is naturally just an ordinary rope."

Lian gently waved her hand, and the rope flew back into her hand, which she casually tucked under the hem of her cheongsam.

"But in my hands, it becomes a top-tier magic weapon, the Demon-Binding Rope, specifically designed to bind captivating little vixens like you~~"

"……cut."

Amelie clicked her tongue and gritted her teeth inwardly.

What should I do next?

Fight? She definitely can't win. Although Lian said she was just an avatar and human form of the Dao Ancestor, her strength is probably the same as the Dao Ancestor's.

Run? There's no way to escape. Emery tried to run away just now, and the result was that she was tied up and hung there for half a day. Her wrists and legs are still a little numb.

Could it really be...?

"What are you waiting for, little vixen? Come here quickly~~"
