Protagonist:
Xuan Ge
"Looks like a guest has arrived~"
Xi Lian closed the book in her hands and looked toward the newcomer.
"The Xuan Emperor said, holding an umbrella when it's not raining will stunt your growth. Moon Consort."
Chang Ye Yue stood a few steps away, pink hair and red pupils, a faint, barely-there killing intent still lingering around her.
She looked this pink-haired one up and down.
Figure, temperament, and that smile of hers.
After a moment of silence, she reluctantly squeezed out a word from between her teeth.
"Lady Xi Lian."
"Oh my~~" Xi Lian blocked half her face with the book, yet her brows and eyes curved even deeper, "Many thanks for the compliment~~·"
"Shouldn't you be returning the thing to me?"
Chang Ye Yue didn't play along with her teasing, held out her hand, and her tone turned cold.
That causal power, it's hers!
It's the thing Xuan Ge personally placed into her hands!
She won't give it to anyone — not even March 7th, she won't give it!
If not for the fact that she was constrained by Xuan Ge's repeated instructions not to disturb Weng Fa Luo Si, she would have long since started a fight with this smiling pink-haired one.
Xi Lian lowered her head to glance at the wedding ring on her own right ring finger, her tone lightening a bit.
"Chang Ye Yue, don't rush. As for who this ultimately belongs to, why not wait until the Emperor arrives to decide?"
Before Bai E departed, she entrusted the Xuan Emperor's power to him, and conveniently added a little trick.
Condensed the power into this ring, had him wear it to go see Xuan Ge.
As long as the Xuan Emperor sees it, he will understand.
She is waiting for him, and has made all preparations.
"Hehe, I don't think that's necessary."
Chang Ye Yue casually waved a hand, and tens of thousands of red jellyfish manifested out of thin air, surrounding Xi Lian tightly in the center.
"This was mine to begin with. What's there to decide?"
"Such cute jellyfish~"
Xi Lian reached out a finger and poked the one closest to her, then revealed her pink crystal bow and arrow, drew the bowstring, and pointed the arrow tip at Chang Ye Yue.
This power was obtained by her own ability, and she has already formed a causal connection with this power, she has a reason she must keep it.
Chang Ye Yue smiled upon seeing Xi Lian's bow-drawing posture.
"Learned it quite well. But the bearing is lacking a bit."
"It's fine, I think I learned it very well."
Xi Lian smiled and lowered her bow and arrow, her tone suddenly shifting.
"However, making a move against the Xuan Emperor's consort is a universal taboo, you know."
She took out a token, held it between her fingers and shook it.
"But you also can't touch me."
".... Scum."
Chang Ye Yue stared at that token; the Hunt Path vibration on it was blindingly obvious.
She of course knew Xuan Ge had given that contestant named Bai E some things, but didn't expect it to be this.
Xi Lian returned the token to her sleeve and stepped toward Chang Ye Yue.
The jellyfish automatically parted a path, not a single one daring to touch her.
Xi Lian walked up to Chang Ye Yue, deliberately raised her right hand, and showed her that wedding ring.
"Look, is this pretty?"
"Heh, peeping woman."
Chang Ye Yue's expression was cold, her gaze stubbornly fixed elsewhere, refusing to look at that ring.
But her peripheral vision was full of it.
For the first time she experienced the feeling of being NTR'd right in front of her face; this stifled feeling rushed from her chest all the way to her throat, unable to be swallowed down or spat out.
If not for that Shenwu Token, she really would have fought this pink-haired one to the death.
Xi Lian saw that Chang Ye Yue had already endured to her limit, smiled cheerfully, withdrew the ring back before herself, and opportunely changed the subject.
"Speaking of, how come March 7th didn't come with you?"
She never intended to return this power.
Although it's a bit sorry toward Chang Ye Yue, this is the fastest method she could think of to lure Xuan Ge over.
Worst case, she'll let the Xuan Emperor eat a bowl of pink-haired covered rice then.
She's curious.
Jing Liu and Yao Guang, Black Swan and Da Li Hua, Kafka and Ji Zi, Xing Xiao and Huan Long, Ruan Mei and Hei Ta.
Now there's also her and Chang Ye Yue, plus the battle-ready Zhen Zhu and Fei Cui.
Wonder what the experience of one person versus two people is like.
"She's staying at the Sui Yue Shen Dian."
Chang Ye Yue withdrew her gaze from elsewhere and tilted her head toward the direction of the Sui Yue Shen Dian.
Taking advantage of Xi Lian's inattention, her gaze grazed over that ring.
She would get it back eventually.
"Did you tell her your true identity?"
Xi Lian looked past Chang Ye Yue, gazing toward the direction of the Sui Yue Shen Dian.
She could see March 7th sitting right on the stone steps of the Shen Dian, chin propped on both hands, her whole person like a crashed camera.
She watched the entire showdown between Chang Ye Yue and March 7th.
Chang Ye Yue confessed her identity, telling March 7th that they were both Yue Fei.
She also personally admitted that it was she who used this body to tumble in the clouds and rain with Xuan Ge.
So March 7th had long been in Xuan Ge's shape, inside and out.
"None of your business. You'd better think about how you're going to face Xuan Ge."
Chang Ye Yue let out a cold snort, and before leaving stole one last glance at that ring.
Xi Lian noticed every one of her sneaky glances, and deliberately waved the right hand wearing the ring at her retreating figure.
"Next time remember to bring March 7th to see me~~"
Sui Yue Shen Dian, on the stone steps.
Chang Ye Yue returned to March 7th's side and found her looking like she hadn't rebooted successfully.
Chang Ye Yue spoke directly: "Stop thinking. You are Yue Fei, and I am too. You don't want this identity, but you have to have it."
".... Who, who said I don't want it." March 7th rebutted softly, burying half her face in her knees.
"I just didn't expect that I would...."
Those scenes automatically replaying in her mind.
Her own appearance riding on Xuan Ge, indulgent to the point of losing control.
Chang Ye Yue returned all memories about Xuan Ge to her, a great many, again and again, various positions.
She watched them all from start to finish.
"That was me, but also you." Chang Ye Yue smiled faintly, "Although I deleted the memories — the body is honest."
"Why tell me only now?" March 7th clenched her hands.
Every time she was near Xuan Ge, an inexplicable impulse would surge up, and every time she endured it with all her might.
She had always thought it was because she was too lustful.
Chang Ye Yue crouched down, sat beside her, her tone gentler by a few degrees.
"What use would telling you early have? You who just woke up, even your underwear was on backwards."
March 7th's face went from pink to deep red.
"Don't say it! That's because I had amnesia! I didn't know anything!"
Chang Ye Yue had her mouth covered by her, yet still watched her quietly.
I don't believe it.
She watched the whole process.
That morning March 7th hurriedly put on her underwear and rushed out to show off the meal; front and back were confirmed, but as confirmed.
A whole day passed without her noticing, until she herself took over the shift in the middle of the night, only then did she turn the underwear right side out.
".... Hmph."
March 7th let go, her voice suddenly lowering, carrying a touch of guilt.
"Then you didn't remind me either."
She finished speaking, secretly glanced at Chang Ye Yue who was smiling, and put away her last bit of stubbornness.
"I'm very stupid. These days..... trouble you."
Actually, at the moment Chang Ye Yue laid her cards on the table, she had figured it all out.
By what right could she knock down a Yizhe with one arrow?
It was Chang Ye Yue spoiling her, releasing just a bit of power, nearly scaring that Yizhe to death.
Why did Crown Prince Xuan Xing dare to attack Dan Heng, dare to pierce Xing's chest with one Yan Spear, yet not dare to come within half a step of where she stood?
And that time at the Herta Space Station, the Antimatter Legion invaded, she was under too much pressure and accidentally snuck an arrow during Xuan Xing's speech.
Xuan Xing not only didn't get angry, but cheerfully let the matter slide lightly.
These weren't luck; it was Chang Ye Yue always in places she couldn't see, blocking everything she shouldn't have to bear.
"You and I are originally two sides of one body. Why thank yourself?"
Chang Ye Yue took out a pinkish-white token from her sleeve and held it out before her.
"This is yours."
March 7th shook her head slightly: "I have no qualification. When I'm on Xuan Ge's side——"
"I do."
Chang Ye Yue cut her off, then fished out another blackish-red token from her own sleeve and flashed it before her eyes.
March 7th looked at the blackish-red token in Chang Ye Yue's hand, then at the pinkish-white token before her.
That bit of sentimental feeling was all stuffed back by this blatant favoritism.
The meal's already been fed to the mouth; refusing to eat now would be affectation.
She took the token, turning it over and examining it.
On it were faint lightning patterns, and a pinkish-white jellyfish design; she liked it very much.
"If you want to thank someone, thank Dan Heng. He's the one with the headache."
Hearing this, March 7th scratched her head and gave an embarrassed smile.
These words... are true...
From the initial awakening until now, Dan Heng has always played the role of teacher.
Teaching her how to receive words, teaching her how to handle affairs, and cleaning up messes and taking the blame all fell on Dan Heng alone.
Should find a chance to thank Dan Heng, at least I must do what a Yue Fei ought to do.
Chang Ye Yue watched March 7th finally step onto the path of a Yue Fei, and she also relaxed.
But she hadn't relaxed for long when March 7th spoke a sentence, shattering her dream of relaxation.
"You say, if I follow Xing's meaning, how about granting Dan Heng the title of Xing Qun Che Jun Da Jiang Jun?"
Chang Ye Yue: "..........."
Destruction.
