The branches and leaves of the locust tree fell down with rustling sounds.

A locust leaf fell on Zhu Yu's forehead, and a noise was heard from under the tree.

"Come on, Sister Xu An."

"..."

Xu An has already ground down the circle around the tree, leaving only the support in the middle, and is now trying to push down the tree.

"This locust tree still has leaves in this cold weather. It won't drop insects, will it?"

"Don't worry. There won't be even a single mosquito in their sect's territory, let alone a bug."

Ze'an sat on the ground with a grin on his face, looking at Xu An's somewhat miserable appearance.

"He's sleeping, come and help me push him."

"Please I will come."

Xu An shook his head slightly. This person has no humanity at all.

She touched the two silver needles used to tie her hair, which were secretly taken from the Marquis' Mansion.

He took out the long needle, tilted his head to find the center of the trunk, and gently turned it to poke a tiny hole.

"Hiss, there's still something missing." Xu An looked back at Ze An and smiled meaningfully, "Hehe~"

Xu An approached Ze An, squatted in front of him, and stared at him with a smile on his face.

Ze'an met her gaze, his face burning inexplicably, "What are you doing?"

Xu An deliberately leaned forward, tilted his head close to Ze'an's left cheek, and reached behind Ze'an with his right hand.

Faced with Xu An's actions, Ze An swallowed, his heart beat faster, and he instinctively gathered strength with his fingertips.

"What are you doing? Men and women should not touch each other. You are my sister, how can you..."

Ze An held his breath and muttered, his face flushed

Xu An curled his lips and unexpectedly took away the stone behind Ze An, and suddenly laughed, "Huh? What are you doing? What do you think I'm going to do?"

She deliberately knelt in front of Ze'an and waved a stone in front of him, "What's wrong? I just held a stone~"

For a moment, Ze'an didn't know what to say, so he silently hooked his finger back.

"..."

Seeing his shy look, Xu An's heart was already filled with joy.

Look at the expression of this young man, it's really intriguing~ It seems that my skills in teasing people are only getting better~

She turned around and took the stone and the long needle to poke a hole in the center of the tree trunk. Ze'an couldn't understand the behavior of the person in front of him. His heart was still beating fast because of what happened just now. He even doubted whether he had some inexplicable feelings for the person in front of him?

After drilling hundreds of holes, the tree stump began to become shaky. After a while, Xu An began to kick the locust tree hard, and the bamboo shoots on the tree were shaken open their eyes.

"The tree is about to fall, Zhu Yu, come down quickly!"

The locust tree fell down with a bang, and the ice on the lake shattered into pieces in an instant. Even the air was mixed with flowers, plants and dust, creating a mess.

Ze'an jumped up and landed in front of Xu An. He put his arm around her waist and emerged from the dust, wearing a black shirt and cloak to protect Xu An under him.

Zhu Yu walked out from the dust, with a light green light emanating from around him. He was still wearing white clothes, without a speck of dust on them, and his sleeves fluttered in the wind.

"Ahem... this tree is so powerful."

Xu An poked his head out from Ze An's cloak and looked at Zhu Yu's posture.

Oh my god, Zhu Yu is so handsome. No wonder the male protagonists in TV dramas always bring their own atmosphere and special effects when they appear.

"Ms. Xu is really smart."

She could lift this dagger even though she had no spiritual roots. It seemed that she did have some connection with ice crystals.

Zhu Yu thought about it, picked up the dagger, put his right index finger and middle finger together to cast a spell from the handle upwards, walked closer and handed it to Xu An.

"Miss Xu, this is for you."

Xu An took it in his right hand, and suddenly the dagger turned into a crystal sword with a handle that was intertwined with blue and gold patterns, and in the center of the sword was a small red gem.

"This is a treasure left by our sect, and it is also my thank you gift to you in advance. This dagger is so sharp because it is willing to recognize you as its master."

Xu An stood up and looked at the sword.

It feels so familiar...

"What's its name?"

"It has no name yet and has never been sharpened. It is said to be a heavenly stone offered by the gods in the Qingyu. But it fell by the river of the human race and was picked up by a swordsmith to be forged into this sword. Although it has not been sharpened, the spiritual power of the sword was enough to repel ordinary demons at the time, so the sword has never shed blood and has never hurt anyone."

"You're giving it to me right now? You won't regret it, right?"

"Miss Xu, you are joking. Since Miss Xu is willing to use her own blood to help us repair the ice crystals, I will definitely offer my full sincerity."

Xu An wanted to say something but didn't know how to tell Zhu Yu. She was afraid that she couldn't help and that the last incident was just a coincidence.

"Since you are mine now, I will name you Shunan."

Holding this sword, I actually felt a sense of familiarity, gently stroking the gem on the sword.

"Sister, it's time to go back home." Ze'an urged from the side. He didn't like to stay with Zhu Yu for too long.

"it is good."

Xu An held the sword in his arms and bowed to Zhu Yu, "Thank you for your gift. I will come to practice the law tomorrow. We will take our leave now."

Zhu Yu nodded slightly, "Miss Xu, I'm sorry for the inconvenience in the future."

"One more thing. Um, what kind of existence is the Empress? And... um... ahem..."

As soon as the words came out, Ze An quickly covered Xu An's mouth and whispered in his ear, "Don't mention the word empress. Their sect is very taboo about this word."

When Zhu Yu heard the word "Empress", his eyes instantly changed from indifferent to fierce and cold, with obvious hatred and murderous intent.

"Ah... I'm sorry, if it's not convenient to answer, then don't reply. Um... we'll leave first!"

Ze'an pulled Xu'an onto the horse.

"drive!"

Xu An looked back at Zhu Yu, then disappeared into the forest as the horse moved forward.

The clattering sound of horse hooves was like the beating of a drum in Xu An's heart, and he felt more and more irritated and uneasy.

She couldn't help but ask Ze'an: "What kind of existence is the empress? Why is the sect taboo about it?"

Ze An looked ahead with a serious expression, "Sister, are you really crazy? The Empress is the one who rules over the three realms. We humans will never see her in this lifetime."

"What does it mean to command the three realms? What's the grudge against the sect?"

Xu An felt incredible and somewhat curious about the term Three Realms.

"Well, it's a long story. Although there are three realms of humans, gods and demons, the empress is from the Tianqing Realm. The Tianqing Realm is not included in the three realms. It is an independent existence composed of true gods. From ancient times to now, there has only been a woman who became the empress of the Tianqing Realm. However, she disappeared not long after taking the position. It is said that she voluntarily returned to the God Realm. Apart from this, there have always been men in charge, called the Emperor of Heaven, and no empress. If nothing unexpected happens, perhaps in the next tens of thousands of years, only the main god of the God Realm will inherit this position."

"I am confused by what you heard. So the Empress or the Emperor of Heaven is the person with the highest position in the world and only the Lord God is qualified to inherit it?"

"It seems that you are not hopelessly stupid. No one from the human world or the demon world has ever been to the Tianqing Realm. In the past, lust was not allowed in the Tianqing Realm, so there were no offspring to inherit. As a result, only those who cultivate into immortals and enter the God Realm to become the main god can see the Tianqing Realm now."

"It's so complicated. Is there no one else in Tianqing Realm besides the True God?"

"Yes, but the others are the best in the three realms. The current demon god is the loser eliminated by the Tianqing Realm back then."

"Has anyone from the human race ever entered the Tianqing Realm?"

"Not yet. There will be a competition on the Spring Equinox next year. The winner will go to the Demon Realm to fight. The winner again will go to the God Realm and become a member of the God Realm. If you win the competition in the God Realm, you can get a token to go to the Tianqing Realm. If you fail halfway, you will die or become disabled. Therefore, no human race will aim to become an emperor. At most, they will become members of the God Clan to seek magic medicine or wealth."

Putting it this way, you think too highly of me, the system, by wanting a loser like me to be the empress. I'd be lucky if I could just be a loser for the rest of my life.

"Does the sect have any grudge against the Empress?"

"After that woman became the empress, she basically wiped out the entire sect in order to grab the treasure at the bottom of the broken lake to consolidate her position and increase her power."

"Isn't that treasure meant for the protection of the emperors and kings? Why don't you just hand it over?"

Xu An was confused by what he heard.

"The people in the sect were unwilling to hand it over, saying that only male Heavenly Emperors were qualified to use it. This angered the Empress, so they were exterminated. In the end, the three chief elders died to seal the ice crystal, and the woman disappeared. Fortunately, the treasure was sealed, so it is still at the bottom of the lake."

"No wonder people are so taboo about this word. It's too cruel to kill the whole sect."

"Zhu Yu and his fellow apprentices were still young at the time. They were hidden in the underground tunnel by their uncles and mistresses, and thus escaped the disaster. However, when they came out, there were corpses everywhere and blood flowing like a river..."

Xu An was silent and couldn't help trembling a little. No wonder Zhu Yu's aura was so cold.

However, I will never be able to be the empress even if I have ten lifetimes! !

Xu An silently roared in pain in his heart. The system was really bold. It actually dared to ask a loser like me to be the empress...

She looked at the sword in her arms, and for some reason, she felt a little relieved.
