312 Why Are You Frowning?
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
Today’s weather was not great.
It was snowing heavily, and the north wind whistled by and swept up the snow on the ground. A blizzard was coming.
After Medusa left Yuchi’s side, she found a place to slowly recover her strength. Currently, she was in a sect’s territory. She did not know where she was, so she needed the help of others to locate the Netherworld Sea.
The Netherworld Sea was the place where she had been raised, and ruled over. She really wanted to see it again.
Right now, she was wearing a thick coat, and a large hood covered her face, as she sat on a long bench staring at the icy fountain in front of her.
Medusa faced the wind and snow and muttered to herself, “Yuchi has already reached the Dao heart realm, while I have only reached the third grade of the Dao essence realm. While my current strength isn’t bad, it pales in comparison to his.”
“Furthermore, I have no clue as to how to reach the Dao heart realm, so there’s only a very slim possibility of catching up to him.”
“I need to change my mental state. I’m no longer the empress from back then, but just another aspiring cultivator.”
When she thought of this, she felt quite uncomfortable.
Medusa had always wanted to defeat Yuchi. He was her benefactor, and he had made her his goal. Now that she was unable to fulfill his expectations, she did not know how else she should repay him.
She was not able to defeat him, nor was she able to bring him around as her follower to reestablish her past empire and reclaim its glory.
This was already impossible.
The current Yuchi was a one-man army.
She needed some time to calm down and think about what she should do next.
“If I didn’t have any feelings for him at all, then all of this wouldn’t have been so complicated. To think that I, the Queen Medusa, the Empress of the Netherworld Sea, would be defeated by a man in the end.”
Medusa fell silent as she thought about this. Just as she was thinking about this, a woman’s teasing voice rang out from behind her.
“Yo, isn’t this Medusa? Isn’t this the Medusa who told me that she was the Empress of the Netherworld Sea? Why are you here all alone, acting like a neglected wife?” The person who spoke was clearly Yinguan Luoying.
Yinguan Luoying also bade farewell to Yuchi after Medusa left. However, Yinguan Luoying directly pounced into Yuchi’s arms and placed his palm on her blazing heart. This could be considered as her repayment for his favor.
Yuchi was also forced to use his hand to feel the beating of her heart.
It was obvious that Yinguan Luoying could not sense Cofuran’s presence, who was staring at her with a speechless expression.
However, it did not matter to Yinguan Luoying. Since she had paid her debt, it was now a clean slate.
After Medusa saw that it was Yinguan Luoying, she helplessly said, “How unlucky. How did I end up meeting you in this place?”
Yinguan Luoying was unhappy. She completely ignored the snow on the bench and leisurely sat next to Medusa. “Alright, alright, put on a show, then. If I didn’t stop you, who knows what sort of dangerous things you would’ve done by yourself.”
“Sure, I admit that he’s very powerful now, but you might be able to surpass him in the future. Besides, if you’re really interested in him, you can recover your strength a little before going to find him.”
“Why do you have to look so despondent? It’s not the end of the world, is it, Queen Medusa?”
