The Corruption Dragon God: Lust System

Chapter 811: 811 - Don’t give me a reason to kill you, please..

Qingyi was already bracing himself mentally, ready to fall back on his greatest trump cards and flee at any moment.

Fortunately, none of that was necessary.

The Celestial Empress’s expression softened, and the suffocating pressure that had blanketed the hall dissipated like mist scattered by the wind.

She walked calmly toward Qingyi, her light footsteps barely whispering against the polished jade floor.

"So you’re the one chosen by my little Xue Hua, huh?" she asked aloud, while, through sound transmission, she sent a private message intended only for him.

[What is your relationship with Long Tianjin?]

[He’s my father-in-law... and what’s your relationship with him?] Qingyi replied.

He knew that lying was no longer an option, not without making the situation infinitely worse. If she was asking, it was because she already knew—or at least strongly suspected—who he truly was.

For now, his best move was to hold his composure and prepare for the worst.

Fortunately, with all the trump cards up his sleeve and over four hundred thousand accumulated lust points, he had more than enough to escape a situation like this.

[I am the Grand Elder Feiyue, his right-hand, and I will report your existence to him as soon as I return to the central region. You know what that means, don’t you?] she asked.

[I know my father-in-law well enough to be relaxed about that, so report whatever you like. But if you hurt any of my women...]

For a brief second, Feiyue froze, staring at Qingyi with unmistakable disbelief written across her face.

This boy just threatened a Celestial Empress?

The silence stretched for a moment longer before her lips parted in a hearty, resounding laugh, the sound ringing off the hall’s walls like a crystal bell.

She stepped closer to Qingyi, her delicate fingers threading through his hair with unexpected tenderness.

"You’re quite an interesting young man, you know? My daughter really does have a good eye for men," she said with a soft sigh, completely ignoring the bewildered stares from everyone around her.

Her gaze fell on Rou’er, and the smile on her lips softened into something noticeably gentler.

With a light snap of her fingers, everyone in the hall froze mid-motion, as if time itself had ground to a halt. Only Qingyi and Rou’er remained free to move within the sudden stillness.

"Did you know I used to hold you in my arms when you were just a baby?" Feiyue stroked Rou’er’s pink hair with quiet affection. "You used to call me Aunt Feifei... before that damned Heavenly Demon..."

Her eyes shimmered with an ancient, distant pain, and she pulled Rou’er into a tight embrace, her arms wrapping around the young woman as if unwilling to ever let go again.

Rou’er blinked several times, momentarily lost in confusion as she processed those words. Then, slowly, long-buried memories began to stir in her mind.

There had been a woman, a subordinate of her father’s best friend. She used to visit them from time to time, always bearing wonderful gifts and smiles that warmed a little girl’s heart.

"A-Aunt Feifei? Is t-that really you?" she asked, her voice trembling as tears welled up in her eyes.

"Who else could it be, sweetie?" Feiyue’s smile widened, a moist gleam gathering in her own eyes.

"The world really is a small place... Ah..." she sighed. "I’ll stay and protect you all for now. I don’t want a new Dragon God of Corruption to be born, and I know that pig won’t hesitate to try to bring one into the world again. For now, please focus on awakening your bloodline, okay?"

"Okay!" Rou’er nodded excitedly.

Feiyue smiled tenderly, running gentle strokes down her back.

She turned her head slightly, her gaze landing on Qingyi, whose face was frozen in an expression of pure shock.

It was obvious she was close to Tianjin, given that she knew of his existence. But Qingyi never would have imagined she was also a friend of Yuelan and Wujin. Someone worthy of being called "aunt," someone who so clearly cherished Rou’er.

"The descendant of that crazy bear," Feiyue’s eyes fell on Yunxi, "the daughter of the Dragon God of Corruption, and now, even my own daughter..."

"You look a lot like Long Wujin, you know? Well... At least he could keep his dick in his pants and, didn’t move it unless his wife ordered him to..."

"I mean... the world really is a small place," Qingyi muttered, scratching his cheek awkwardly, unsure how to react to such a comparison.

Feiyue sighed, and the playful tone in her voice vanished in an instant.

She gripped Qingyi’s shoulders tightly, her fingers pressing down with an intensity that gave weight to every syllable of her next words. "Don’t give me a reason to kill you, please..."

Qingyi nodded without a second thought.

He knew she would be watching him from a distance now, quietly measuring his character before taking any definitive action.

"Very well." With another snap of her fingers, she lifted the restriction on everyone else in the hall.

Yunxi, Xue Hua, and her father blinked in momentary confusion, but the strange sensation was quickly brushed aside as their attention returned to the scene before them.

"Long Qingyi... why don’t you take this time to cultivate a bit? I have a lot to discuss with my daughter, and, well... with her sisters too, fufufu~~" Feiyue said, then gestured toward her husband. "Come now, take Qingyi to a cultivation room. He needs to be well-rested for tomorrow."

The Grand Elder didn’t hesitate, leading the young man to his personal cultivation room, where Qingyi could finally have a moment to himself.

His gaze drifted to the status screen, and he let out a heavy sigh. What kind of resources could he purchase to push his cultivation further now?
