Another day dawned, and Jin Feng had gone to sleep, but she had made thorough preparations for it.
First, she prepared a spirit-gathering mirror. Even if she were to fall asleep completely unconscious, it wouldn't matter. She could simply open the spirit-gathering mirror the next day to find out what had happened.
She could even hear their conversations. At first, she hadn't paid much attention, but after smelling the Empress's scent, Jin Feng had become inwardly wary.
Indeed, that night, she remained unaware of everything, completely unconscious.
But that no longer mattered. What was important was that she had activated the spirit-gathering mirror hidden in the shadows, revealing the images within.
As expected, not long after she fell into a deep sleep, the Empress arrived as promised. Initially, there seemed to be no problem, but upon seeing Yun Fan holding the Empress, and the Empress lying sweetly in his embrace, she began to question her entire existence.
How could this be?
She even doubted if she was seeing things correctly. Just then, she overheard their conversation.
"Between me and Jin Feng, who do you like more?" Su Dan Novel Network
Yun Fan replied, "I like both!"
The Empress was not satisfied and continued to ask, "Then, between her and me, who has the better figure!"
"You do!"
Yun Fan stated directly.
"You know what's good for you!"
The Empress said to Yun Fan, "But you can't let me and Jin Feng down!"
"That's for sure!"
Yun Fan promised.
After hearing this conversation, Jin Feng was devastated. She had only been curious to take a look, but she never expected curiosity to lead to such a disaster.
Was this really the Empress? Was this really Yun Fan?
Jin Feng wept. Why would they do this to her? Even if they had done it behind her back, why would they do it in front of her?
Of course, there was still a sliver of hope in her heart, hoping that what she had seen and heard was merely an illusion.
However, after witnessing the passionate and unrestrained battle that followed, she was utterly despairing, for this was definitely not an illusion.
"Crack!"
Overwhelmed by fury, Jin Feng threw the spirit-gathering mirror to the ground.
Then, she ran out in despair.
The two people closest to her and whom she trusted the most had actually done such a thing. She felt that even living was wrong.
In her extreme grief, Jin Feng had the impulse to end her own life.
"My death will fulfill you, won't it!"
Jin Feng angrily cursed and prepared to take her own life.
However, at that moment, she was stopped by Qing Luan.
"Senior, why are you stopping me?"
Jin Feng asked in confusion. Living now was more painful than dying.
Qing Luan asked, "You know everything?"
"Yes!"
Although it was difficult to speak of, Jin Feng nodded.
Qing Luan said, "See! This is the Empress, who is beastly in human guise, stealing even your man!"
"But what can I do?"
Jin Feng cried heartbrokenly.
At this point, Qing Luan said, "We must verify why they did this. Logically, the Empress would not do something so depraved, yet she did!"
"Therefore, I suspect your husband's identity is not simple!"
"Even if it's not simple, it doesn't justify hurting me!"
Jin Feng still could not forgive them.
Qing Luan said, "Therefore, we need to verify his identity now. If he is truly the third strongest, then it makes sense. If he is not, then it is utterly unforgivable!"
"The third strongest?"
Jin Feng looked at Qing Luan in shock. She never expected Yun Fan to have such a background.
Qing Luan said, "This is just my speculation. Whether it's true or not, you will have to verify it!"
"How do I verify it?"
Jin Feng asked, confused.
"Find him and confront him directly!"
Qing Luan gave her such advice.
"But won't this hurt their pride!"
Jin Feng asked worriedly.
Even though Yun Fan and the Empress had wronged her, at this moment, she still didn't want to hurt them. It could only be said that her heart was too pure.
Qing Luan said, "What are you afraid of? They made the first move, are you afraid to make the fifteenth?"
"But why would it make sense after verifying his identity as the third strongest?"
Jin Feng still voiced her doubts.
Qing Luan said, "Because the Empress likes the third strongest. She was once meant to marry the third strongest as a concubine, but due to some accident, her wish was unfulfilled. Therefore, she is likely doing this now to fulfill her past desire!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Feng understood what she meant.
Thus, she immediately wiped away her tears and returned to the Princess's mansion.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, she saw Yun Fan walking towards her enthusiastically. In the past, she would have reciprocated.
But now, she had no good feelings towards Yun Fan.
Yun Fan said, "Jin Feng, what's wrong? You look a little unwell!"
"Hmph!"
Jin Feng snorted, "How dare you ask me what's wrong? I know about you and the Empress!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Yun Fan felt his heart sink. He hadn't expected Jin Feng to find out. Although he knew that this matter would eventually be exposed,
after all, such a secret affair, let alone if Qing Luan knew, it wouldn't be hidden for long even if Qing Luan didn't.
But when it was truly exposed, Yun Fan felt a sense of guilt like a thief.
"I'm sorry!"
Yun Fan spoke first, apologizing.
"I don't want you to apologize. The harm you and she have done to me cannot be resolved with a single 'I'm sorry'!"
Jin Feng said coldly, "I want to know the reason!"
Hearing this, Yun Fan knew that if he didn't explain, Jin Feng would never forgive him.
Therefore, at this moment, he told Jin Feng about the events of ten thousand years ago, and then told her about his decision to go down the same path as the Empress.
Jin Feng stood there stunned. No matter what, she never expected things to be like this.
"But why did the Empress still facilitate our engagement back then?"
Jin Feng asked unwillingly. If this was the case back then, she wouldn't have gotten involved and would have fulfilled their wishes.
Now, she was the one in the most difficult situation, and she was the one who had been hurt the most. What could she do? She was also desperately in despair!
At this time, Yun Fan explained awkwardly, "Perhaps the Empress didn't know my identity back then!"
"Then why didn't you reveal it earlier?"
Jin Feng complained. Honestly, she didn't want to be sisters with the Empress.
Yun Fan said helplessly, "My identity is very special, I couldn't possibly expose it!"
His exposure this time was an act of desperation.
"So, you are truly the third strongest?"
Jin Feng asked doubtfully.
Yun Fan said, "In my previous life. Now I have been reborn. Currently, I am just an ant!"
As they were arguing, Qing Luan, who had confirmed Yun Fan's specific identity, immediately made a move and swept Yun Fan away.
