Chapter 300 - 300: Teasing The Arrogant MILF Empress Zuqin In Front Of Her Son
The lonely sound of guqin spread like ripples across the man-made pond where snowflakes fell before melting into water.
The Spirit fishes peaked out from beneath the pond’s surface, their colourful scales shimmering with faint spiritual light as they gathered to listen to the music.
Sitting inside a pagoda-like structure that stood at the center of the pond, connected to the garden by a bamboo bridge, Zuqin’s eyes were closed as she played, her soft fingers dancing across the strings of her ancient guqin.
At this moment, Zuqin’s personal maid came rushing in.
But seeing the Empress playing guqin, she didn’t dare disturb her immediately. Instead, she waited silently for the Empress to finish.
After the time it took to boil a cup of water, Zuqin’s fingers slowly stopped.
The spirit fishes were also awakened, swimming back into the depths of the pond.
“What’s the matter?” Opening her heterochromatic eyes, she asked, her gaze falling upon her maid.
“It’s His Highness, the Crown Prince. His Highness wants to meet Her Majesty,” The maid respectfully spoke.
Zuqin’s eyes flashed with irritation, but suddenly she thought of Lucian and Eris. The memory of their forbidden sex caused her pussy to unconsciously twitch!
She had been thinking about meeting her son, but didn’t know what excuse to make. Now she wouldn’t need to go through such troubles.
“Bring him here,” Zuqin said, waving her hand dismissively as she began to prepare tea.
After a moment,
Crown Prince Ji Liuyun was guided by the maid through the snow-covered garden to the pagoda. The maid then bowed before quickly leaving.
Ji Liuyun was dressed in golden robes with a four-clawed dragon embroidered across the chest, his hair pulled back and tied with a jade hairpin.
He stopped before the pagoda and bowed, “Liuyun pays respect to Royal Mother.”
Even though they were the only ones here, Ji Liuyun didn’t dare to speak causally.
“Hmm… Come, sit inside,” Zuqin didn’t look at her son as she continued to brew tea. The fragrance of spirit herbs slowly filled the air.
As Ji Liuyun sat in front of her, he asked, “How have you been Royal Mother? How’s your cultivation going?”
But inwardly, he was confused, ‘Why is mother pouring a third cup?’
He looked around but didn’t see anyone. He didn’t dare spread his Soul Sense, afraid that Zuqin would get angry.
“It’s been good,” Zuqin said casually as she pushed the tea cup forward, “I see you’ve already broken through to the Soul Integration Realm.”
Ji Liuyun took a sip of spirit tea, then proudly said, “Royal Father has been preparing to hit the Ruler Realm. So he’s been focusing all the resources to help me before he enters seclusion.”
This was the first time, Zuqin didn’t speak in a cold voice, so Ji Liuyun thought Zuqin might start to care about him…
Looking at her son, Zuqin didn’t feel any maternal love, if anything she felt disgusted.
Even though she gave birth to Ji Liuyun, that didn’t mean she loved him.
“Royal Mother, has your comprehension of Authority of Sound reached perfection?”
Zuqin shook his head, “I’m still far away.”
‘If only I get the chance to comprehend that Halberd, I’m sure my progress will reach perfection quickly. But there’s some mysteries power stopping my Soul Sense to merge with the Halberd,’ She thought inwardly.
Then thinking about how the Halberd mysteriously disappeared in the morning, she cursed.
“But I believe it should be enough to break through to the Soul Integration Stage, right? So why not break through?” Ji Liuyun cautiously asked.
Zuqin’s rosy lips curled up, “So the Emperor doesn’t want me enter the Tribulation Realm, huh?”
How could she not understand?
She had already reached the peak of the Divinity Transformation stage. If she wanted, she could easily break through to the Soul Integration stage.
But if she did that, she wouldn’t be able to enter the Tribulation Realm because there was a Realm restriction that only those at Divinity Transformation stage or below could enter.
Of course, if someone advanced inside the Tribulation Realm, the Heavenly Laws wouldn’t affect them.
Emperor Ji Chunqiu was afraid that with her natural talent, she would surpass him if she entered the Tribulation Realm.
He was also concerned that Zuqin might use the Tribulation Realm to travel to the Elf or Dragon Continent where she could hide until the Ascension Path opened.
If that were to happen, Emperor Ji Chunqiu was worried that his obsession with Zuqin would create heart demons in his Sea of Consciousness.
The heart demons would surely disturb his cultivation and he might not even survive the Tribulation while breaking through to the Ruler Realm.
That was why he had been using many methods to suppress her for decades.
Ji Liuyun noticed his mother’s cold gaze and quickly lowered his head.
“Y-you misunderstood, Royal M-mother,” Ji Liuyun’s back was soaked with cold sweat, “I-I was just concerned about your cultivation…”
At this moment, a teasing voice suddenly came from the distance, “Oh?! Did I just interrupt a ‘Mother and Son’ moment?”
Both of them turned to look and saw Lucian calmly walking towards them across the bamboo bridge, snowflakes melting before they could land on his white hair.
Ji Liuyun’s face instantly darkened, he immediately shouted, “How dare you come here without permission?”
However, from the corner of his eyes when he saw his mother didn’t say anything, his heart sank.
‘Don’t tell me, you poured that third cup for him? Y-you’re waiting for him, mother!? Why?’
Meanwhile, Lucian ignored Ji Liuyun and continued walking until he reached the pagoda.
“Greetings, Your Majesty,” Lucian directly entered the pagoda and gave a fist salute.
Zuqin just nodded indifferently, but her pussy began to wet!
Lucian smiled mischievously as he walked to take the only free chair.
However, his thighs ‘accidentally’ hit the teapot and the tea inside ‘accidentally’ fell on that seat, soaking the cushion completely!
“Shit! I’m sorry about that!” Lucian looked embarrassed.
Zuqin’s sword-like eyebrows raised up as she easily saw through his act, her plump lips twitching slightly.
“Hmph!” Crown Prince snorted and waved his hand. Spiritual Energy instantly surged from the Heaven and Earth toward the wet chair.
Yet, at that very moment, the chair suddenly fell backwards into the pond!
“It seems Crown Prince still needs to work on controlling his Spiritual Energy,” Lucian chuckled, then his gaze turned to Zuqin, “Your Majesty, can I sit beside you?”
Even though he asked, he didn’t wait for Zuqin to reply and directly sat beside her on her sofa.
Crown Prince who was just about to say something almost had his eyes bulged out in shock!
Never had he seen anyone dare to sit so close to his mother, not even the Emperor himself!
