Chapter Thirty-Eight: Those Who Obey Me Prosper, Those Who Oppose Me Perish
Chapter Thirty-Eight: Those Who Obey Me Prosper, Those Who Defy Me Perish. The night was dark, the wind was high, a night for murder. Inside the majestic palace, a white figure flashed silently, moving so fast it seemed like the wind itself.
"Cough, cough, cough." Weak coughs echoed in the magnificent hall. An aged, weathered voice rang out, "You, in the end, still came."
On the majestic dragon throne, Wan'er, dressed in a white robe with gold trim and a majestic phoenix embroidered on the hem, looked down upon the world. Her soft hair was casually tied up, cascading down her back. Her captivating phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed, and her cherry lips parted slightly, "Yes, you're quite disappointed, aren't you?"
His Highness Zi Ye Zhe (Zi Ye Zhe is Zi Ye Yu Xun's father, and also the emperor of Zi Ye Kingdom) was dressed in a dragon robe, looking very majestic, but his still handsome face showed weakness and paleness. "Cough cough, I have been repenting. Don't blame Yu Xun, he knows nothing."
Wan'er slowly opened her captivating phoenix eyes, the intense coldness in them chilling to the bone. "So what? This empire will be mine sooner or later." Zi Ye Zhe said with unwavering integrity, "You, Binghai Wan'er, don't push your luck."
Wan'er chuckled, "What a joke! I'm just taking back what's rightfully mine." Zi Yezhe was stunned, his steps faltering. "You, you, you're shameless!" Wan'er glared fiercely at Zi Yezhe, then instantly moved in front of him, her slender hand pinching his chin. "If only you had known this would happen, you wouldn't have done it in the first place."
Zi Yezhe looked into Wan'er's bloodthirsty eyes and felt a surge of fear, but then he smiled and said, "You won't kill me, because your brothers are in my hands." Wan'er tightened her grip, and her alluring cherry lips curled up in the darkness. In an instant, she ended Zi Yezhe's life. "This world will be mine, let alone your lives."
Zi Yezhe stared at Wan'er in terror as he slowly collapsed, his last words before darkness descended: "Demon." Wan'er flicked her finger in disgust. Looking up at the pitch-black night sky, she uttered icy words: "Those who obey me prosper, those who defy me perish."
On the morning of the second day, the Emperor of Ziye Kingdom passed away, and Crown Prince Ziye Yuxun ascended the throne. The whole country mourned for three days.
Inside the luxurious mansion, Wan'er leisurely sipped her fragrant tea. Jin Fan looked at Wan'er with doting eyes, "You were naughty again last night." Wan'er put down her tea and pouted, "No way! That old man called me a devil last night, but I prefer the Grim Reaper."
Jin Fan was speechless. He picked up Wan'er and said, "Tell me, how should I punish you for taking matters into your own hands last night?" Wan'er's face immediately turned red. "You, you mustn't do anything reckless!"
Jin Fan grinned mischievously as he carried Wan'er to the bed, saying helplessly, "Alright then." He gently pulled the quilt up, then lay down beside Wan'er and pulled her into the warm embrace.
"Sleep well, there's still a lot to do tonight." Wan'er smiled happily and fell soundly asleep.
(Ah, I highly recommend it, hehe.)
Chapter Thirty-Nine: I Love You
Chapter Thirty-Nine I Love You "Damn it, this is absolutely awful!" A furious voice came from the darkness. "You bunch of good-for-nothings, what are you good for? You can't even hold onto a woman."
The middle-aged man, dressed in Jinling silk, spun the dragon ball in his hand with great force. He had a handsome face and eyes that shone like cold stars. Then he looked at the man who was tied to the rack with a sinister look.
The man's long, black hair was loosely draped over his shoulders, his eyes were tightly closed, and his thick, curled eyelashes trembled occasionally. Mei Xin frowned deeply; his once exquisite lips were now bloodless, and his handsome face was deathly pale. His once white robes were now burned away by blood.
Liu Yun laughed upon seeing this, "I never thought you'd end up like this." The tightly closed eyes on the rack opened, staring directly at Liu Yun. "Hahaha." Bing Haiyixuan laughed heartily.
Liu Yun looked at Bing Haiyixuan with a sinister gaze, then swiftly raised her hand and slapped Bing Haiyixuan hard across the face. "Bing Haiyixuan? Hmph, don't you ever wonder why you've never had a mother since you were little?" Bing Haiyixuan was stunned, looking at Liu Yun with a trembling voice, "My mother died in childbirth." Liu Yun laughed, "Wrong, your mother is still alive."
The words "alive, alive" kept echoing in Binghai Yixuan's mind. He looked at Liu Yun anxiously, "Where is she?" A glint of focus flashed in Liu Yun's eyes, "I can tell you, but..." Binghai Yixuan shouted urgently, "But what?"
Liu Yun didn't take it to heart. "That old bastard Zi Yezhe is dead, I'm next. I want you to kill Binghai Wan'er with your own hands." His heart, which had been full of hope, felt like it had been stabbed. What should he do? Seeing Binghai Yixuan hesitate, Liu Yun quickly said, "Binghai Wan'er has no blood relation to you." These words struck Binghai Yixuan like a thunderbolt. "Impossible!"
Looking at Binghai Yixuan's incredulous expression, Liu Yun coldly snorted, "You are not Binghai Aotian's son." Binghai Yixuan's eyes widened in shock, his heart filled with mixed joy and sorrow. He was happy that Wan'er was not his sister, but he was also troubled because he could only choose between Wan'er and his mother.
Undeterred, Liu Yun added fuel to the fire, saying, "Is your mother more important, or a woman with no blood relation? Besides, this involves your background. Don't you want to know? You should weigh the pros and cons."
Bing Haiyi bit her lower lip hard until blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. "I..."
Two figures flashed by, and Wan'er and Jin Fan landed lightly. Wan'er stepped forward and pushed open the tightly closed door. Just as she stepped inside, a weathered voice rang out, "You come and pull."
Wan'er smiled and said, "You're much smarter than that old man." The candlelight illuminated the three people in the room. Liu Yun looked at Wan'er with a sinister expression and said, "How could he possibly compare to me? He didn't even know he was being used by me."
Wan'er leisurely walked to the table and sat down. "Really? I really underestimated you." Liu Yun narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Wan'er. "You shouldn't have come today." Wan'er raised an eyebrow. "Oh? What do you mean?" Liu Yun laughed heartily. "How long are you going to hide?"
Wan'er felt a sense of doubt and unease. Her captivating phoenix eyes swept around and she saw a handsome man walking out of the house. He was dressed in white, and although his face was slightly pale, it did not diminish his handsomeness.
Wan'er looked calmly at Binghai Yixuan, a hint of pity flashing in her eyes. She coldly said to Liu Yun, "Release him, and I'll spare your life." Unexpectedly, Liu Yun burst into laughter, "What are you waiting for?"
Binghai Yixuan clenched her slender hands tightly, and bright red liquid flowed out, dripping onto the ground like dazzling roses.
Binghai Yixuan slowly walked towards Wan'er, gently embracing her and saying affectionately, "Wan'er, I've been keeping something from you all this time." A glint flashed in Wan'er's eyes, and her cherry lips parted slightly, "What?" Binghai Yixuan gently kissed Wan'er's forehead, "I love you. But..." A dagger appeared in his hand at some point and was plunged into Wan'er's body.
Wan'er smiled, gently closing her captivating phoenix eyes. "I know." Binghai Yixuan was stunned. 'What? Could it be that she knew all of this?'
"Wan'er!" Jin Fan shouted angrily, sending Bing Haiyixuan flying far away with a single palm strike. He reached out and hugged Wan'er, his eyes filled with heartache, worry, and even more so, self-reproach. Wan'er looked at Jin Fan gently. "Let's go." Jin Fan embraced Wan'er tenderly, and with a light step, he disappeared.
No one knew that Bing Haiyixuan's handsome face was now covered in tears.

The Gathering of Handsome Men, Chapter 40: Junnuo Reappears
The Gathering of Handsome Men, Chapter 40: Jun Nuo Reappears. "Wan'er, why do you have to do this? You know perfectly well that tonight..." Jin Fan gently held Wan'er, speaking with heartache, but hesitated to finish his sentence.
Wan'er smiled faintly, her pale cherry lips curving slightly. "Fine, let him go. I'll avenge myself sooner or later. That old man Liu Yun can't escape; it's just that he's lived a few more days." As she spoke, Wan'er accidentally aggravated her wound, and bright red blood slowly flowed out, making Jin Fan both anxious and angry. He quickened his pace.
Wan'er looked at Jin Fan with deep affection, "Let them be at peace." Jin Fan looked down at the little woman in his arms who made him feel so loved and scolded her, "You're in this state now, and you're still worrying about others." Wan'er felt a pang of guilt; it was her fault for making Jin Fan worry. "But..."
Jin Fan sighed softly, "Zi Yi is safe and sound, but when Hei Yi and the others rescued her, they didn't find the man you mentioned." Wan'er was slightly taken aback, "No? How could that be?" A complex look flashed in Jin Fan's eyes, then he stopped looking at Wan'er and simply increased his speed. Even though Wan'er had a half-immortal body, she became increasingly weak due to excessive blood loss and slowly fell asleep.
Suddenly, a white phoenix blocked Jin Fan's path. Standing in his way was a man with long, silver hair that fluttered in the wind. He possessed the same captivating phoenix eyes as Wan'er, though those eyes were empty and hollow. He had a straight nose and thin, tightly closed lips. Clad in brocade robes, his alluring phoenix eyes coldly stared at Jin Fan, making him seem almost unreal.
Jin Fan suddenly stopped and looked at the person who had come. His heart tightened, and he knelt on one knee, lowering his proud head. "Master." The man's thin lips curled up, and he instantly teleported to Jin Fan's side, gently pulling Wan'er into his arms. "You... have fallen in love."
Jin Fan was taken aback, looked up at the man, his eyes filled with determination, "Yes, please punish me, Master." The man looked affectionately at Wan'er in his arms, smiling indulgently.
"Fine, since the little one likes you, I'll give you to her." Jin Fan looked at the man in shock, her heart filled with indescribable joy. "Thank you, Master." The man didn't look at Jin Fan again and disappeared instantly.
"Mmm." On the golden phoenix bed, Wan'er let out a soft moan. Her captivating phoenix eyes slowly opened, staring blankly at everything before her. Then they slowly closed, only to snap open again, not out of fear, but because the person before her was none other than Yunnuo.
Wan'er rubbed her eyes hard and blinked repeatedly. "Strange, am I hallucinating?" Wan'er asked in confusion, which made Yun Nuo laugh. He gently helped Wan'er up. "Silly girl, it's me, no doubt about it."
Wan'er stared in shock at the unrealistically handsome man before her. "You... when did you come out?" Yun Nuo shook his head helplessly. "If I hadn't come out, how would I have known you would risk your life like this?" Wan'er lowered her head guiltily. "Actually, I knew I would be fine." Yun Nuo sighed softly. "Then what if you weren't a half-immortal? You're not allowed to get hurt in the future." Wan'er suddenly looked at Yun Nuo and threw herself into his warm embrace. "I promise you."
Yunnuo's cold, thin lips curved into a gentle smile, his warm, large hand stroking Wan'er's smooth hair, his eyes filled with doting affection.
"Slap." "How could this be?" An angry voice rang out. Nan Sanglin coldly looked at the trembling servants under the Great Prince, waved her hand, and the two servants immediately ran out of the Great Prince's hall. Nan Sanglin calmly got up, walked out of the Great Prince's hall, looked up at the sky, a glint of light flashed in her eyes, and her cold lips curled up. "My Empress, I can't wait to see you."
Chapter 41: Handsome Men Gather - Nan Sanglin Gets Tricked
In Chapter 41 of "Gathering of Handsome Men," Nan Sanglin is tricked. Inside the Hundred Flowers Manor, flowers are in full bloom everywhere, and Wan'er is enjoying the service of two handsome men in the garden with a pleasant expression.
The ethereal Jin Fan, dressed in white, gently poured tea for Wan'er, while the peerless Yun Nuo lovingly fed her pastries. This drew a disgruntled protest from the divine beast Xiao Xue. Yun Nuo smiled and fed Wan'er the food, then glanced shrewdly at the protesting Xiao Xue. Xiao Xue then darted away in a flash.
Strangely enough, Xiaoxue, the mythical beast who fears neither heaven nor earth, was actually afraid of promises. This left Wan'er feeling utterly bewildered.
Jin Fan gently poured tea for Wan'er and handed it to her, saying, "Wan'er, do you still remember what your husband said?" Wan'er took the tea from Jin Fan, her eyes filled with confusion.
Seeing this, Yun Nuo shook his head helplessly and reached out to wipe the pastry from Wan'er's mouth. "Didn't Jin Fan say before that he would give you a handsome man?" Wan'er was stunned, then looked at Yun Nuo. "He did say that, but how did Little Nuo Nuo know?" Three black lines appeared on Yun Nuo's handsome face. Ever since Wan'er woke up, she had started calling him Little Nuo Nuo. Oh well, it's not bad.
"Jin Fan and I are both Wan'er's men. Wan'er is the ruler of a country; how can there only be the two of us in her harem?" Of course, Jin Fan was his subordinate; how could he not know that? Wan'er nodded lightly. "Harem? Forget about it. With you all, I'm already very happy."
Yunnuo smiled faintly, her jade-like hand gently stroking Wan'er's hair. "We don't recommend it." Jinfan nodded in agreement. "Besides, you must meet this person."
"Wan'er frowned, her beautiful brows furrowed, her heart filled with doubt. 'Who could it be? Someone I absolutely must see.'"
A figure in purple flashed and stopped in front of Wan'er, respectfully saying, "Master, Nan Sanglin is outside requesting an audience." Wan'er raised an eyebrow. "Oh?" The figure in purple frowned. "However, he is carrying a bundle, it seems he intends to stay."
Wan'er paused slightly, then looked at Yun Nuo and Jin Fan, both of whom wore expressions of anticipation. "Looks like I'll go see that handsome man after all." Yun Nuo and Jin Fan exchanged a glance, both seeing amusement in each other's eyes. 'Little one, don't get too excited about my gift.'
It is said that Nan Sanglin secretly packed his belongings late at night and slipped out of the palace, traveling through the night to Baihua Manor. When he saw Wan'er's attendants, he asked them to go and inform them. However, he waited and waited, but no one came out, making him extremely anxious. He, the ruler of a nation and the head of three kingdoms, had fallen to such a state; wouldn't he be laughed at if word got out? But he never expected that while he was anxiously waiting outside, three figures had already quietly left.
Zi Yi chuckled inwardly. The manor lord said he would inform Nan Sang Lin after sunset, and no matter how urgent the situation became, he would not let him go. Zi Yi lightly touched the tip of her foot and flew away.
As darkness fell, Nan Sanglin, who hadn't eaten all day, coldly surveyed the guards blocking her path. "You, are you courting death?" she said, not in a question, but in a statement.
The words were icy cold, causing the two men at the door to tremble. This man was a match for the manor lord. Seeing that the time was almost up, the woman in purple, hiding in the shadows, opened the door. "Your Majesty, the manor lord has urgent business to attend to and has already left. You see…" Upon hearing the woman's words, Nan Sanglin's already icy face turned even colder, enough to freeze a person to death.
Gritting his teeth, he asked, "When did she leave?" Zi Yi didn't hide anything, "Around noon." Nan Sang Lin clenched his fists tightly, the cracking sound particularly eerie. "Where did she go?" Zi Yi truthfully replied, "This, this subordinate doesn't know." Nan Sang Lin slowly closed his eyes, his anger causing his entire body to heave. "Good, very good. Binghai Wan'er, you're too good." Then he turned and left.
