"I'm a stumbling block?"
GongYimo's voice echoed in the room, sounding especially cold and cheerless.
"If you want to rule the world, I've laid an absolute foundation for you. Now that the four countries are stable and prosperous, as long as you can ascend to that position, you'll be an emperor for all eternity!"
She changed the topic. "If you want to destroy the world, I've given you an absolute opportunity. If you capture me and use me well, it'll be enough to throw the world into chaos …"
Xue Ye looked at the beautiful face in front of him and his expression softened. "You're right. You're a stumbling block, but you're also a very good stepping stone … No, I should say that you're an extremely sharp double-edged sword. If there's no interference from outsiders, you can become a saint and help the world. If you want to destroy the world, I'm afraid this world won't be able to escape catastrophe. So I'm not wrong when I say that you're a dangerous person."
GongYimo narrowed her eyes. "So you captured me to take over the world, or to destroy the world?"
He smiled faintly. "Princess, you're exceptionally intelligent. Don't you understand my intentions? I'm a commoner and I have ambitions too. If I hadn't seen you, it would've been fine. But when I first saw you, those hidden desires exploded … "
GongYimo knew that he was talking about their first meeting in Lian Kingdom.
"When I found out about your identity, I thought, if I could have the jade in your hands and become the ruler of the continent, wouldn't it be great? That way, I wouldn't have to hide in a corner. I wouldn't have to hide my identity in front of Lian 'er … At that time, I'll announce a law that allows close relatives to marry, and Lian' er won't be able to reject me anymore … "
GongYimo smiled but didn't say anything. Xue Lian rejected you not because of your identity.
"Perhaps you don't know … When I was young, I lived the lowest life! Everyone in the Holy Land looked down on me and could come over to trample on me! Even Lian 'er avoided me. Perhaps Lian' er would only see me in a new light when I became a superior person … So, I left the Holy Land.
But later on … I worked so hard for so long, but I only managed to establish a tiny Lotus Kingdom. Later on … I took Lian 'er in and married her. Only then did I slowly suppress that ambition. But when I saw you, that ambition couldn't be suppressed anymore! "
"Not only did he reignite, but he's also extremely daring!" GongYimo couldn't help but mock.
"I don't care what you say …" He smiled coldly, "I've been paying attention to all your movements. I didn't expect that I would be able to use my skills. Lian 'er was taking in the Snow Clan people everywhere, but she rejected Xue Qian Zhong and Xue Se. They … found me. They have the Saint Stone, and I have you. Isn't this the Heavens hearing my voice, and giving me a great ambition?"
"Other people's ambitions are built bit by bit. You, on the other hand, are full of schemes and plots …"
GongYimo sneered, "Even if you take over this country, others won't be convinced. When the time comes, I'm afraid there will be endless internal strife."
Xue Ye's expression turned ferocious.
"I have Gu Poison, Same Heart Gu, and Spirit-eating Gu! Whoever doesn't listen, I'll turn them into puppets! What I want is a supreme position! I want them to listen to me! It doesn't matter if they have thoughts or not! "
"You're really crazy …"
GongYimo thought of something, and said disdainfully, "That's true, how can I not be crazy? What Xue Lian likes is your mask. You've been pretending every day for so long. You must have gone crazy from holding it in, right? "
"Shut up! When I become the world's overlord, she'll know who's the man who's truly worthy of her love! "
GongYimo grinned, "What if she still doesn't like you when you become the world's overlord?"
Seeing that the other party was at a loss for words, GongYimo smiled deeply, "… Then you'll abandon her and find other obedient women!
What do you mean for Xue Lian? Don't make excuses for your ambition, you're clearly doing it for your own ambition!
You're greedy for riches, unwilling to be ordinary, and extremely selfish! Just like when you liked Xue Lian, she refused, so you forced her! You don't care about other people's feelings at all. You only care about yourself. Why are you pretending to be a saint now? "
"Shut up!"
He roared angrily! Then, GongYimo felt a piercing pain!
"Why … are you angry from embarrassment? … Your lie is exposed … It doesn't look good! "
Even if it hurt! But GongYimo still gritted her teeth and mocked him! Large beads of sweat rolled down her face. She was in so much pain that she clutched her chest and squatted down, but she didn't cry out in pain!
Xue Ye narrowed his eyes, and suddenly let her go.
"You'll know in the future that I really love her!"
"I'll know?" The pain disappeared, and GongYimo sneered, "Now that you're being so frank, it seems like you've already decided how to treat me, right? In order to not let Xue Lian know, you'll destroy my consciousness! How would I know then? "
He smiled faintly. If you ignored the scar, he was actually quite good-looking, and it was undeniable that GongYimo looked quite like him. But when she thought of his character, GongYimo was glad that she was a soul that had transmigrated!
"What should I do? You're so smart, I don't even want to destroy you …"
He approached and grabbed GongYimo's chin, forcing her to look up. GongYimo looked at him, and a murderous look flashed across her eyes.
"If I kill you now, what will happen to me?"
"You'll die." He was high and mighty, and his voice was cold. "The child will die, but the mother won't. If the mother dies, the child will die."
"That sounds so unfair. I really want to try and see if it's really that unfair." GongYimo sneered.
He gave a gentle smile that he would have when he returned to the cliff, and pulled GongYimo up.
"Go ahead and try. It's late, Princess, you should rest early …"
GongYimo got up and stared at him. "Have a good trip, I won't see you out!"
With that, her footsteps were a little shaky, but she walked into the house with a straight back. The night was still long, but she couldn't just sit and wait for death …
When she thought about how Gong Dai would be threatened by Xue Ye if he knew about her situation, GongYimo touched her stomach, and her heart was in a mess.
Perhaps she could make Xue Lian do something now. If Xue Ye really valued Xue Lian that much, Xue Lian might be able to make him change his mind …
But based on his attitude, his feelings for Xue Lian might not be comparable to his ambition.
Besides, she was now under his surveillance. She might not be able to hold on before she told Xue Lian the truth.
Also … she was afraid that Xue Lian wouldn't be able to take the blow and do something extreme. This was also the reason why she didn't say anything in the carriage.
If Xue Lian did something to provoke that person, it would most likely produce the opposite of the desired effect.
GongYimo pondered and finally decided that no matter if it worked or not, she had to let Xue Lian try!
