Chapter 88: The Saintess Cried, Can’t You Just Stop Being So Affectionate?

Fanhua Saintess immediately explained her intentions.

“You’re saying that Imperial Court’s Crown Prince Shu Zi’an plans to collude with the Great Emperor Leiyan, helping him gain control of the Imperial Court sooner,” Fanhua Saintess said.

Chu Qingyue’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold aura spread throughout the hall.

Although the Great Emperor of Leiyan had not personally taken action, he had indeed secretly made moves to try and collude with the Imperial Court again.

Even though someone like Shu Zi’an, who was arrogant and self-righteous, was just an insignificant ant in her eyes, and killing him would be as easy as lifting a finger, the ones backing him were the entire Imperial Court and the three Great Emperors who were working together to plot against her.

At this moment, it was clear that she was not in a suitable position to take action.

“Yes, so we need someone with the right status and position to go to the Imperial Court and disrupt Shu Zi’an’s plans, or at least eliminate him first,” Fanhua Saintess replied after a moment of thought.

Chu Qingyue asked, “Who do you think is the right person for this mission?”

“Of course, it’s Nie Chen. I think he’s the most suitable person,” Fanhua Saintess said.

Chu Qingyue pondered for a moment before responding, “Nie Chen? I didn’t expect your judgment to be so accurate this time. Indeed, no one seems more suitable than Nie Chen right now… His status as a core disciple allows him to freely enter and exit the Imperial Court, and even if he kills Shu Zi’an, it won’t implicate too many people. More importantly, among his peers, only Nie Chen can rival Shu Zi’an.”

Fanhua Saintess smiled slightly, looking proud of herself.

However, before she could finish basking in her pride, Chu Qingyue’s cold voice suddenly rang out, “These things are insignificant, but can you explain to me what was going on with the ambiguous gaze and words you exchanged with Nie Chen outside the Heavenly Cloud Palace just now?”

Just then, Nie Chen happened to walk into the Heavenly Cloud Palace and overheard the conversation.

Hearing this, Nie Chen was taken aback. Was he interrupting something he shouldn’t have?

The situation seemed extremely unfavorable, and Nie Chen immediately wanted to turn around and leave.

However, before he could do so, Fanhua Saintess began to explain in a pitiful tone, almost crying, “Qingyue, don’t misunderstand. Although Nie Chen gave me candy, accidentally held my hand, and even said he loved me with all his heart, his feelings for you haven’t changed… I’m the one who’s wrong for accidentally capturing Nie Chen’s heart. If you’re angry, please scold me instead. Don’t make things difficult for Nie Chen!”

Nie Chen’s actions froze instantly, and his mind went blank.

What was going on?

Fanhua Saintess’s words were like a green tea-flavored bombshell, and Nie Chen couldn’t understand what was happening.

“Damn it?” Nie Chen exclaimed.

The atmosphere in the hall became even colder, and Nie Chen’s body was suddenly lifted off the ground by an unseen force, bringing him face to face with Chu Qingyue.

As he passed by Fanhua Saintess, Nie Chen noticed a sly smile on her face.

This woman was cunning and had clearly set him up!

“Wife, I’ve been wronged!” Nie Chen cried out.

However, before he could finish explaining, Chu Qingyue’s cold voice interrupted him, “I know those things were false, but…”

Chu Qingyue’s words were unexpected, and Nie Chen’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Then why did you bring me here, wife?” Nie Chen asked.

Chu Qingyue hummed and suddenly pressed her soft lips against Nie Chen’s.

The gentle touch and sweet scent made Nie Chen’s brain freeze for a moment before he quickly regained his composure.

Speaking of which, he wasn’t tired at all!

This was a great opportunity, and Nie Chen could take advantage of it all day and night!

“Wife, your control is a bit lacking. Let me take over,” Nie Chen said with a smile.

Nie Chen gently wrapped his arms around Chu Qingyue’s waist, tilting her body at just the right angle.

Chu Qingyue’s face was like a sunset, glowing with a faint blush.

“Don’t go too far… I just wanted to prove a point to her, but you’re taking it too far,” Chu Qingyue whispered.

“Don’t worry, I’ve got this. It’s just Fanhua Saintess, and I want to let her know that my wife is the only one for me,” Nie Chen replied with a smile.

Nie Chen took the initiative, and the two of them shared a passionate kiss.

A long time passed before they finally parted.

Nie Chen looked into Chu Qingyue’s eyes and asked with a smile, “Wife, did you eat something sweet today? You taste so sweet.”

“Not at all…” Chu Qingyue replied.

“Oh, I remember now. You’ve always been this sweet,” Nie Chen said.

“Really?” Chu Qingyue asked.

“Really,” Nie Chen replied.

Chu Qingyue suddenly said, “In that case, I think you’ve eaten something sweet too.”

“Not at all. How could a man like me…” Nie Chen trailed off.

“Is that so? Maybe I was wrong. Let me try again,” Chu Qingyue said with a sly smile.

The two of them continued to flirt and tease each other, their voices echoing through the hall.

Fanhua Saintess stood there, feeling like a fool, her nose sour from the dog food she had been forced to eat.

Why did it have to be like this?

She had originally wanted to drive a wedge between the two, but instead, they seemed completely unaffected and had even become more affectionate!

This was not good!

This was a threat to all the single dogs out there!

And to make matters worse, the one responsible for this was none other than Empress Qingyue, who had written the infamous ” Theory of the Uselessness of Dao Companions” and caused the anti-Dao Companion alliance to spread throughout the world.

Fanhua Saintess felt like crying, but no tears came.

In this moment, she realized that she was the clown.
