Chapter 172 A Happy Marriage

Zhao Mu almost agreed.

But on second thought, Zhao Mu felt something was wrong.

Give you a chance, but you have to help me complete something first...

With this kind of rhetoric...why do I feel like I'm being taken advantage of?

If he hadn't seen the empress' rising favorability, Zhao Mu might have really thought that he was a Kaizi.

But if you think carefully about the empress's behavior and her capable and courageous character, what she said about giving a chance should be taken literally.

Seeing Zhao Mu hesitate for a long time, Empress Qingyun frowned slightly: "Well, since you are not sincere, just pretend that I didn't say anything just now."

"Don't mention it."

Zhao Mu would not let this rare opportunity slip away. He hurriedly said: "My sincerity towards the empress can be learned from the sun and the moon, but...it's just that the words I promised to the woman have a psychological shadow."

As Zhao Mu spoke, he showed a melancholy expression, showing the feeling of a good man who had been scummed and no longer believed in true love.

Empress Qingyun was really frightened. After thinking for a moment, she realized the problem.

She knew how Zhao Mu joined the Holy Yuan Demon Sect.

"You mean Chu Jiaoran?"

The majestic Empress Qingyun naturally has a photographic memory. She just briefly checked Zhao Mu's information and thought of the fox from the outer sect.

Before Zhao Mu got rich, he was controlled by that fox for nearly a year.

Could it be that she was the one who caused Zhao Mu to have a psychological shadow?

Seeing the empress mention Chu Jiaoran's name, Zhao Mu knew that he had a chance to win.

He continued to exude the temperament of a melancholy handsome man, and spoke with emotion and emotion about the unfair treatment he had experienced at the hands of Chu Jiaoran. Anyway, it was all real things that had happened, at least with some added details. It was impossible for the empress to know the truth. Fake.

Chu Jiaoran had already left the Shengyuan Demon Sect anyway, and she was not afraid of the empress going back to settle old scores.

All in all, Zhao Mu created an image of himself as a victim who is afraid of women and clings to love in order to win the sympathy of the empress.

Ordinary methods will not work against a three-thousand-year-old tribulation-riding woman like Empress Qingyun.

No matter how proactively he pursues her, the effect will be better if she is temporarily soft-hearted.

Although the empress has a high position, strong strength, and rich experience, according to Zhao Mu's understanding, she has never had any close contact with men of the opposite sex in her life. In the Shengyuan Demon Sect, she has always lived in the deep palace for a long time. , in addition to retreat, it is cultivation.

Now that Zhao Mu is getting along with her day and night, his good impression is gradually increasing. With his ability, it is not a problem to fool her into lameness if he shows his true intentions.

After all, since ancient times, no one has asked for kindness, only routines can win people's hearts.

After talking about it, Empress Qingyun's expression became extremely subtle.

The way she looked at Zhao Mu went from being confused at first to feeling a little distressed, and her attitude had quietly changed.

After being silent for a long time, Empress Qingyun said: "This Chu Jiaoran is really abominable. I cannot escape the blame for the Demon Sect accepting such a disciple... I just misunderstood you. Don't take it to heart, but I still have Some questions, why did you secretly flirt with me when I was sleeping?"

Empress Qingyun finally said these words in person.

If it were before, once these words were spoken, it would be equivalent to a death sentence for Zhao Mu.

Violating the Empress is an absolutely unforgivable crime.

If she never mentioned this matter, Zhao Mu would only be terrified, fearing that the punishment would suddenly come.

But since she opened her mouth to expose it, it means that the empress has opened her heart.

This is Zhao Mu's ultimate goal.

Only by breaking through the empress's defense can one directly attack her heart.

"Because I have admired the empress for a long time, but I know clearly in my heart that it is impossible for us to be together, but I am not willing to do so, so even if I secretly hide a beautiful memory in my heart, I don't want to do nothing, just This will miss you forever.”

Having said this, Zhao Mu turned away, leaving only the back of Empress Qingyun.

Next it’s time to wait for the results.

Although Zhao Mu was 80% sure of winning, he still knew too little about the empress, and it was still unclear whether he could succeed.

"You...sit down."

Done!

Zhao Mu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, then returned to normal in an instant. He silently turned around and sat back, staring at the empress with his clear and bright eyes, waiting to receive the results.

"I apologize to you for my rude request before. I shouldn't have used your sincerity to threaten you. My understanding of feelings is too shallow. I'm glad that you were able to explain your feelings to me just now. Otherwise, what I did would have been... What's the difference with Chu Jiaoran?"

"I have never cared about love and love. In the past, I always regarded cultivation as my first priority. I also thought that this state would continue and remain unchanged forever."

"But since the Demon Sect fell into the hands of others, I have reflected on myself every day and gradually realized that as the leader of a sect, I cannot be a cold weapon. In the past, I treated all Demon Sect disciples equally and never showed any sympathy to their hearts. I think this may be one of the reasons why the civil strife broke out in the Demon Sect, and maybe it’s time to make some changes.”

Speaking of this, Empress Qingyun suddenly took the initiative to hold Zhao Mu's hand.

"Zhao Mu, in the name of the Empress of the Demon Sect, I hire you as the Prince of the Demon Sect and ask you to teach me about love in the world. Are you willing?"

Ah this...

Zhao Mu is really a bit confused.

According to his idea, he would first take a small step, then proceed step by step, and use three to five years to completely take down the empress.

But the empress's attitude was more direct and straightforward. She actually wanted to get it all in one go!

Did the favorability suddenly increase?

Zhao Mu immediately checked the system and found that the empress's favorability only increased to 75, which was far from enough to succeed.

Why is that?

After thinking carefully, Zhao Mu suddenly understood.

75 favorability is indeed not high for ordinary women.

But for the Qingyun empress who has been single for three thousand years, Zhao Mu's favorability is definitely the ceiling level among the opposite sex men she has met.

In addition, the empress herself has a very decisive personality, so this scene is not too unexpected.

Am I lucky enough to get this?

Zhao Mu nodded vigorously: "Zhao Mu obeys!"

As he said that, Zhao Mu leaned forward and wanted to give the empress a big hug.

He has been waiting for this day for too long.

But an accident happened suddenly. Just when Zhao Mu's chest just touched the weak spot of the empress, a strong pressure rushed straight to Zhao Mu's forehead.

Zhao Mu was directly bounced out and hit the wall heavily, and even the formation barrier was almost loosened.

Zhao Mu sat on the ground with a confused look on his face.

Who am I and where am I?

"Are you okay?"

The Qingyun empress was also startled and hurried forward to help Zhao Mu up.

Zhao Mu finally came to his senses and looked at the empress in a daze: "You... have your strength recovered?"
