I Am the Fated Villain Chapter 398-1: Are you scolding her or complimenting her, The time is finally ripe (1)

Chapter 398-1: Are you scolding her or complimenting her, The time is finally ripe (1)

Hearing Gu Changge's words, Empress Xi Yao thought he couldn't believe it.

Instead, she explained it seriously and added, "For this banquet, I prepared more than 20 years in advance, and even went to the True Immortal Academy to exchange for a long-lost brewing method from an old monster."

"Besides, I also personally visited the extremely cold places in the Demon World and picked sufficient ice lotuses with an age of 8 million years in order to dilute the medicinal effect of the imperial wine as I was worried that they would not be able to bear it, and they would explode and die."

She had never said these words to anyone, not even to the closest female official behind her. No one knew how long she had been preparing for the Banquet of Geniuses over the years.

But in front of Gu Changge, she unabashedly explained all this, because she felt that Gu Changge would understand her good intentions.

"Really? Then, Changge should have a good taste of this imperial wine. If they knew that Her Majesty the Empress had put so much effort into this Banquet of Geniuses, they would probably be even more grateful."

Gu Changge raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled. He did not expect that Empress Xi Yao would pay so much attention to this Banquet of Geniuses.

Even doing so much by herself.

"I don't need them to be grateful to me."

Hearing this, Empress Xi Yao pointed her finger at the many geniuses below, laughed, and said, "They are the future hope of the Demon World. It's nothing for me to do all this."

However, there was still some pride in her words. After all, looking around, this endless and magnificent territory was her Empire.

These countless monster world creatures were her subjects. For her, the hard work she had put in for more than 6,000 years was totally worth it.

"What Her Majesty has done really impressed Changge."

Hearing this, Gu Changge laughed.

Immediately, he glanced at Jun Fan, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed at the banquet, refining the Budhi Dao fruit. He could not see the slightest difference, and continued to ask casually,

"But, Your Majesty, do you think it's worth doing this?"

Empress Xi Yao frowned slightly, thinking seriously about Gu Changge's question.

"They will serve me sincerely in the future and inject fresh blood into the Demon World. I don't think it's worthless."

She didn't hesitate for long and said bluntly.

Gu Changge snorted, his smile seemed light, and he asked, "Is that so? So Her Majesty the Empress thinks that they will all serve you, that is why you trust them so much?"

"They are all geniuses selected by my subordinates, and I will naturally trust them."

Empress Xi Yao gave Gu Changge a strange look, not understanding why he asked such a question today.

Could it be that he was suspicious of the genius in front of him?

Empress Xi Yao felt that this was not very likely. A genius who could come here had entered her line of sight a long time ago.

If they had other plans, she should have known about it long ago.

"Is that so?"

Gu Changge nodded, noncommittal.

At this time, he somewhat understood the thoughts of Empress Xi Yao.

Before this, he was still guessing whether Empress Xi Yao would have any means to prevent the upcoming event of the Banquet of Genius. But from these words, he found that he seemed to have overestimated her.

Just now, he helped her test Jun Bufan's reaction, but Empress Xi Yao didn't notice it at all.

In this way, she would probably only react when Jun Bufan would place the blade to her neck.

Perhaps in Empress Xi Yao's view, even if Jun Bufan was not dead, he would not dare to appear in front of her at this time.

Empress Xi Yao was a qualified Demon Empress, but she was not a qualified Emperor.

In Gu Changge's view, as the so-called Emperor, how could she easily trust others, even her own confidants?

He felt that this time if had not arrived at the Demon World, Empress Xi Yao would definitely suffer a big loss, and it was very likely that she would have suffered heavy losses.

According to the general routine in such a situation, the current rule of the Demon World would definitely be overthrown.

After that, Empress Xi Yao would become a prisoner, and her fiancé, Bufan, who was poisoned by her, would reappear in the world, and announce the crime of Empress Xi Yao. From then on, he would take charge of the Demon World and become the new master of the Demon World.

Even if it was possible to change the situation. Once the turmoil was finally quelled, Empress Xi Yao would have to spend a lot of effort to find the mastermind behind the scene, Jun Bufan.

After all, Jun Bufan was right in front of her now, but she turned a blind eye. Instead, she was optimistic about him and had a heart for talent.

If it wasn't for Luck, Gu Changge would never have believed it.

"So, this is the normal plot and trajectory. It's no wonder if nothing happens…" Gu Changge shook his head slightly.

After that, Gu Changge squinted his eyes before looking at Empress Xi Yao, and said with a smile, "But I'm afraid everyone in the Demon World will never know that their always cold-blooded and cruel, Her Majesty the Empress, still has such a simple and lovely side."

"Young Master Changge… What do you mean? Are you complimenting me or scolding me?"

Empress Xi Yao was a little stunned when she heard his words, but after reacting, she almost couldn't turn her head around, and it was difficult to maintain her usual majesty as the Empress.

She wondered if she had heard it wrong. It was the first time she had heard someone say she was innocent and cute.

She suddenly felt very uncomfortable, and her heart was even a little fl.u.s.tered for no reason.

From the beginning to the end, she knew that she had never been related to these four characters. Not to mention her image in the hearts of everyone in the Demon World had always been cruel, murderous and ruthless.

In order to clean up the remnants of the five Emperors, she did not hesitate to send a large army to fight everywhere, and many great clans in the Demon World perished in her hands.

Because of her relationship, there were countless creatures in the Demon World who died directly or indirectly. How could she be so close to being innocent and cute?

Subconsciously, she thought that Gu Changge was probably laughing at her stupid idea just now.

However, Gu Changge looked calm, smiled, and said, "Of course, I didn't scold Her Majesty. It's just that I suddenly saw the other side of Her Majesty, and I felt that the contrast was quite big… It gave me such a feeling."

"My other side?" Empress Xi Yao stared at him.

In the end, she couldn't stand Gu Changge's straightforward gaze, turned her head away, and looked at the many young geniuses below.

Gu Changge laughed and did not refute.

Of course, it was impossible to call her stupid at such a time. To be euphemistic, she was naturally pure. Her character had been beautified again, it was naturally pure and lovely.

No matter what Empress Xi Yao said, she was still an unmarried woman, of course, the premise was that her age was ignored.

With his status, he could easily impress her by saying something nice.

At this moment, after taking the Bodhi Dao Fruit, almost all the young geniuses were refining and absorbing.

Their body surface was shrouded in divine light, and immortal energy was flickering, not letting go of this once-in-a-lifetime epiphany opportunity.

Everyone was watching.

This process took some time, and soon the sky gradually dimmed.

Countless monster world creatures around the mountain stared at them with envy and jealousy in their eyes. They only felt that the aura of all the geniuses was getting stronger.

Twilight descended the west, and the orange afterglow fell, coloring the entire sacred mountain in pale gold, solemn and magnificent.

"Breakthrough…"

"I also broke through, as expected of the Bodhi Dao fruit."
