Chapter 1658: Chapter 718: Woman’s Schemes

Shui Yaoyao was filled with anger.

In recent days, Chi Ye’s indifference towards her had become blatantly obvious.

Why did it turn out like this?

In the past, Brother Chi Ye was at most just impatient with her.

He seemed like a completely different person, something must have happened.

Little Wu!

It must be Little Wu who seduced Brother Chi Ye and spoke ill of her in front of him.

Every time she thought of her Father saying that Brother Chi Ye entered Little Wu’s tent, Shui Yaoyao’s heart felt like it was being gnawed at by countless ants, unbearably painful.

If she saw that bitch Little Wu again, she’d make sure she suffers just as much as herself.

Unknowingly, Shui Yaoyao walked out next to her own tent.

When she looked again, not a single maid was present.

Since being humiliated, her temperament had become volatile, and her methods rather cruel. Whenever she was slightly unhappy, she would torment those maids, scaring them so much that none dared serve her, each keeping their distance.

Shui Yaoyao entered the tent, just about to call for someone, when she saw a woman standing inside. Judging by the outfit and back, it wasn’t her maid.

"Who are you? Who allowed you to trespass into my tent?"

The woman slowly turned around, and a whiff of floral fragrance drifted over.

Shui Yaoyao’s expression flickered, and upon seeing the woman’s face, she was shocked.

"Little Sister, it’s been many years. How have you been?"

The woman wore a very ordinary magnolia-colored brocade dress, her hair styled in a lily bun, without hairpins or jewelry, just a quietly blooming Moonflower.

Moonflower, a renowned flower in the Demon World, charming and beautiful, yet on this woman’s face, it suddenly lost its luster.

In fact, even among the entire Demon Clan, no woman’s beauty could compare to hers.

The Demon Empress Moonflower unexpectedly appeared in Shui Yaoyao’s tent.

"Moonflower, how dare you show up here? Don’t you know... Brother Chi Ye is also in the Tongtian Tribe."

Upon recognizing Moonflower, Shui Yaoyao was first filled with panic.

Moonflower was the Demon Empress of South Nether City and an arch-enemy of Brother Chi Ye.

Brother Chi Ye was also in the Tongtian Tribe. If he found out she had contact with Moonflower, there was no telling what misunderstanding might arise.

"Hehe, Little Sister, I’ve actually been following you for a while. Chi Ye treats you so coldly that even I feel it’s undeserved."

Moonflower showed no sign of fear.

Chi Ye’s presence was indeed a bit unexpected for her.

But it was also understandable; given the relationship between the Empress Dowager Chi and the Demon King Tongtian, Chi Ye coming to celebrate wasn’t odd.

What puzzled Moonflower was how Chi Ye could treat Shui Yaoyao so indifferently, especially after hearing rumors that Chi Ye had remained single and the Empress Dowager Chi secretly wanted to pair Shui Yaoyao and Chi Ye.

Clearly, now it seemed, Shui Yaoyao was the only one infatuated.

"How dare you, Moonflower! You mock me! This is the Tongtian Tribe, not South Nether City. Don’t you believe that if I yell, my father will send people to catch you?"

Shui Yaoyao was pale with anger.

"Little Sister, calm down. I didn’t come today just to mock you. I heard that the Demon King Tongtian acquired a treasure and will soon break through to Demon Emperor cultivation. I’m here to congratulate, not to be enemies. However, I’ve also heard that Demon Emperor Chi Ye is still in the dark about this. If you call people to catch me, I might get scared and speak nonsense; when word reaches the ears of Demon Emperor Chi Ye, it won’t benefit anyone."

Moonflower said casually.

Shui Yaoyao felt a chill in her heart.

The matter of Demon King Tongtian acquiring the Senluo Ghost Fruit King was extremely confidential and she had only learned of it recently.

If Chi Ye found out, he would undoubtedly suspect the Demon King Tongtian, and then her father’s entire plan would fall apart.

She’d have even less chance of controlling Chi Ye and making him her husband.

Shui Yaoyao hesitated, trying to find words.

"Good sister, we were once close friends, and because of Chi Ye, we’re in this situation now. I’ve noticed you look weary these days; is something troubling you?"

Moonflower observed Shui Yaoyao’s expression, smiled coyly, and took her hand in a sisterly manner.

Shui Yaoyao was feeling wronged, her father only cared for his concubines, and she had no one to talk to.

In a moment of sadness, she confessed everything about Chi Ye humiliating her and her maid seducing Chi Ye.

"Chi Ye truly doesn’t appreciate you, such a beautiful woman, yet he could bear to be without you. Are you just going to let him bully you and not plan to take revenge?"

Moonflower shook her head, sighed, showing regret.

"You say that too, what good is that little slut, that he’d rather favor her than accept me."

Feeling like she found a kindred spirit, Shui Yaoyao clung to Moonflower.

"Little Sister, that’s because you don’t understand men. Men are so cheap, the more you cling, the more they stick like glue. On the contrary, if you treat them with coolness, they’ll cherish you as a treasure."

Moonflower’s eyes became dreamy, as if lost in memory.

In the beginning, she treated Di Shen the same, regarding him as her world.

She followed Di Shen in everything, even disregarding her position as a Little Princess.

But in the end, how did Di Shen respond?

He decisively rejected her, while Zhan Hen, who was always devoted to her, loved her even more because of her cool attitude all these years.

Shui Yaoyao was stunned, looking at Moonflower, seeing a complex emotion on her beautiful face.

That look seemed both longing and resentful.

"Sister Moonflower, I understand what you’re saying. But the moment I see Chi Ye, I lose all composure. I know I can’t live without him. Do you have a way to help me?"

Shui Yaoyao said sadly.

"I do have a way, but do you truly have the heart for it?"

Moonflower gave Shui Yaoyao a sidelong glance.

"What way? As long as I can get Brother Chi Ye to accept me, I’m willing to try anything."

Moonflower took out a piece of paper, covered in black twisted tadpole-like script.

"This is a prohibition formed by an Ancient Demon Technique. You only need to burn it and infuse it into Chi Ye’s drink or wine. His entire cultivation will be sealed, then you can do whatever you wish with him."

Moonflower said, placing the demon talisman in Shui Yaoyao’s hand.

Shui Yaoyao was startled and quickly tossed it aside.

"You’re asking me to harm Brother Chi Ye! Moonflower, I knew you had evil intentions."

"Little Sister, you misunderstand me. This is just a demon talisman, not poison, harmless to the body, merely a sealing. I won’t force you, the choice is yours alone. I’ll be staying in the Tongtian Tribe for a while; think it over. When you decide, come find me."

Moonflower stood up, picked up the demon talisman, and walked out.
