Chapter 648 648 The Comatose Empress
Chapter 649 649. Place of Seal? Entry Forbidden
“Hmm?” The Empress froze.
Thinking too much? Her heart sank, a bad premonition rising. Was she overthinking?
Xia Feng explained seriously, “Your Majesty, you and the Main Body share a consciousness. So, I believe if your pain lessens, the Main Body will naturally feel better.”
“…” Under her dark gold imperial dress, the tip of the dragon tail that had been swaying left and right suddenly froze.
“Your Majesty, although you are also the Pale Dragon God, there are still subtle differences in my eyes.”
Seeing her remain silent, Xia Feng continued, “Therefore, I’m not concerned about Your Majesty, but about the true—Lord Dragon God!”
“…”
For some reason, Xia Feng had mentioned the difference between her and the Main Body before. At the time, she didn’t feel anything and indeed agreed with his assessment.
After all, she and the Main Body did have some memory discrepancies.
But hearing Xia Feng say it again now, the meaning was the same, yet it sounded somewhat jarring.
The Empress’s originally gentle face became frosty again. So, all her thoughts just now were…
Self-indulgence?!
“!”
The Woman in imperial dress’s vertical pupils chilled slightly as she glanced at Xia Feng. For some reason, she found this arrogant believer displeasing again.
As expected, such an impolite believer needed to be disciplined to understand the proper way to revere the Divine Master!
However, seeing Xia Feng’s pale complexion despite his recovered injuries, she hesitated on how to discipline him.
Her mood became inexplicably irritable.
It was as if a cluster of unknown flames was burning the tip of her heart, which she couldn’t extinguish.
“Your Majesty, if there’s nothing else, may I return?” Xia Feng was preparing to find a safe place to enter the Place of Seal and check on Miss Evil Dragon’s situation.
The Empress snapped back to attention, her proud vertical pupils narrowing. “You wish to meet朕’s Main Body?”
Perhaps, she could find another way to discipline this impolite believer!
Xia Feng’s heart thumped. He also felt a sudden sense of foreboding.
As expected.
Before he could react, his Nascent Ten Space was forcefully opened by the Empress. The Spirit materials used to construct the [Gate to the World] shimmered and coalesced into a light gold ball of light floating in the Empress’s hand.
“What are you doing!” Xia Feng’s black pupils widened as he quickly reached out to snatch it back. The light gold ball of light flickered in the woman’s palm and was directly put into the Empress’s storage space.
Xia Feng grasped at empty air. The woman on the imperial seat leaned back lazily.
“I acknowledge your loyalty and concern for my Main Body, but unfortunately, I will no longer give you any opportunity to commit blasphemy against my Main Body.”
She crossed her long legs, resting her beautiful face on her hand, her divine eyes looking down disdainfully.
“From now on, if you wish to meet the Divine Master, come to my residence to meet me.”
“!!!”
Xia Feng never expected this person to come up with such a sinister plan.
Watching the arrogant believer glare in anger but dare not make a move against her, the Empress felt inexplicably delighted.
Heh~
She felt like she was beginning to understand her Main Body’s emotions.
From her Main Body’s memories of interacting with this arrogant believer, she could feel an emotion called happiness from her Main Body.
Happiness, this word was foreign to a Dragon God.
Since gaining consciousness, Pale Di Si had been pursuing the elusive ultimate. Emotions like joy and bliss seemed like ancient history. At least in her Eighth Generation, her emotional state was mostly stable.
After all, only when desires are satisfied can positive emotions like joy arise. But at her level, there were few things that made her want to achieve or obtain them so badly.
This month, she couldn’t understand the source of her Main Body’s thoughts and emotions, so she repeatedly reviewed her Main Body’s memories.
But now, she had finally managed to find, and understand, how to create this almost forgotten positive emotion.
—If this arrogant believer isn’t happy, then she will be happy!
“Lord Dragon God might be suffering from the power of the seal right now. I must go in and see!” Xia Feng said coldly.
“Rest assured, the Main Body’s suffering has not worsened.” The Empress shook her head and said calmly, “The reason I fainted just now was simply because I was just beginning to endure the erosion of this seal’s power and hadn’t adapted yet.”
Having found a way to create positive emotions, the Empress stared at Xia Feng with great interest and said softly,
“Besides, didn’t you say yourself that you and the Main Body share pain? If you help me reduce my pain here, the Main Body will naturally ease as well.”
Saying this, the Empress held a candied hawthorn skewer and gently sucked on a crystal red fruit, her cheeks puffing out as she chewed.
But for some reason, she felt that this candied hawthorn didn’t seem as sweet as before, nor did it have that miraculous effect of instantly relieving her pain.
She glanced at the candied hawthorn skewer in her hand with doubt before raising her eyes to look at Xia Feng again.
!
Xia Feng’s expression grew more displeased due to her refusal to return the Spirit materials. A strange demonic fire seemed to ignite in his deep black eyes, and he stared at her coldly, without any regard for propriety, as if he were about to pounce like a wild beast and disrespectfully humiliate her, the Divine Master!
But the Empress knew that this arrogant believer was already afraid in his heart; he wouldn’t dare!
Thinking this, the Empress leaned back lazily and sucked on another crystal red fruit, a sweet honey filling her heart.
Well, it seemed the previous one might have been spoiled. This one had a great effect, making her feel blissful and unable to feel any pain.
Appreciating Xia Feng’s angry face, the Empress said majestically and calmly, “My believer, do you seem to have any objections to my punishment?”
Xia Feng’s black pupils narrowed. He also keenly noticed that this remnant spirit seemed to be deliberately provoking him, to observe his emotional reactions?
What did that mean?
Finding amusement in it!
Heh~
Then I won’t get angry! Xia Feng took a deep breath and quickly suppressed his disrespectful expression, smiling gently. “How could that be, Your Majesty? Whatever you say goes.”
“It’s just that, Your Majesty, you said I can come here to see you from now on. But the Astral Gate consumes a lot of energy to activate, and its location is fixed at the bottom of the sea, unable to move. I can’t possibly stay in Area 15 forever, can I?”
Since this detestable remnant spirit had forcibly forbidden him from entering the Place of Seal, he naturally had to find a way to maintain contact with Miss Evil Dragon through other means.
And it seemed… only through this remnant spirit could he maintain contact with Miss Evil Dragon.
After all, the remnant spirit had the ability to pass through the seal of the Place of Seal and descend upon Miss Evil Dragon.
“Don’t you have the Pale Contract Seal bestowed by the Main Body? Use that to come and meet me.” The Empress beckoned. “Come closer.”
Xia Feng frowned and stepped forward. Her slender finger touched his brow.
He immediately felt a strange force surge through his nerves into the depths of his soul, gathering in his abdomen.
In his abdomen, a Pale Contract Seal with the pattern of [Si] flickered. The complex and ancient lines around the characters spread out like fiery wings.
The Empress’s brow flashed with purple light.
At the same time, above the originally pure white [Si] character’s fiery wings, a phantom with the same pattern suddenly appeared, descending and covering the original mark.
