Traveling Back Early: Forcing the Young Empress to Sign a Lifetime Servitude Contract

75: Do you want me to hug you? (Long chapter)”Revered Master? Mother? What are you two... doing?”

Ji Qianyou stood there dumbfounded;

If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that her mother, who usually called the Revered Master a ’Bitch’ at every turn... was now lying in the Revered Master’s embrace?

And... why is the Revered Master’s hand on that spot?

”Holy crap, Qian You...?”

Chen Qingxuan’s body jolted;

The next moment, he hurriedly let go of Ji Li, forcing a cheerful smile and saying, ”We were just fighting... right, Madam?”

”We *were* fighting, so why are you winking at me?”

Ji Li was both embarrassed and angry, her Face flushed red.

Especially Chen Qingxuan’s little wink made her cheeks burn hot... It was clearly just a fight, so why make such a ’protesting too much’ expression?

Remembering her daughter was still nearby, Ji Li had no mind to settle accounts with Chen Qingxuan for now and hurriedly walked over,

”Qian You, it’s not what you think... Mother really hates him... you know that.”

”Mother, I haven’t said anything yet!”

Ji Qianyou bit her small lip;

Looking at her mother’s completely flushed Face, she then tilted her head to look at Chen Qingxuan, her pretty Face couldn’t help but show suspicion.

”...”

Ji Li’s peripheral vision also glanced at Chen Qingxuan.

However, at this moment, her pair of beautiful, ruby-like eyes, as they looked at Chen Qingxuan... revealed an indescribable resentment and shame.

Hitting her was one thing... but to be caught by her daughter on top of it.

At this moment, she felt like killing someone.

It’s so mortifying.

”Revered Master, you’re back?”

The next moment, Ji Qianyou walked around her mother and approached Chen Qingxuan again.

Looking at his little disciple’s barely concealed joy, a warm feeling surged through Chen Qingxuan’s heart... Indeed, she was truly the disciple he had taught;

She still remembers him even now!

Unlike those two sissy who always treat him as the bad guy.

In his excitement, Chen Qingxuan subconsciously opened his arms, ”Come here, Qian You, let Revered Master give you a hug.”

”...Huh?”

Ji Qianyou was stunned for a moment;

She wasn’t opposed to such a thing, but... she first looked at her mother beside her.

Sure enough, Ji Li coldly stopped it, ”She’s not a Little Girl anymore, what are you hugging her for?”

”She hasn’t grown up either...”

Chen Qingxuan muttered;

But words aside, with Ji Li standing there watching now, he definitely couldn’t show any ulterior motives.

He dares to say she hasn’t grown up... Ji Li was so angry her chest heaved;

The next moment, she directly used the pretext of discussing matters with Chen Qingxuan to tell Ji Qianyou to wait outside first.

”Mother, then you and Revered Master shouldn’t fight anymore, okay!” Ji Qianyou didn’t refuse; since Chen Qingxuan was back anyway, she just gave the two an uneasy reminder before leaving.

”I know, you go out quickly!”

Ji Li didn’t refute it either.

Although the scene just now had left her embarrassed and angry, it also made her realize... Chen Qingxuan’s current strength was probably above hers;

Could it be that the outer domain heavenly demon... is real?

”Madam, now we can have a proper chat, right?” Chen Qingxuan spoke first, showing a spring-like smile to express friendliness.

”Don’t call me Madam!”

Ji Li warned him crossly.

After saying that, she added, ”I ask you, back then, did you know that whatever that fruit was... would prevent Qian You from growing up?”

”Uh...”

Chen Qingxuan’s handsome Face flushed red, he hesitated to speak;

Regarding the fruit Ji Li mentioned, he naturally guessed it referred to the xiang ji sui fruit... It was precisely because she consumed the xiang ji sui fruit that Ji Qianyou remained a Loli.

Seeing his reaction, Ji Li gritted her teeth in anger, ”You bastard... you didn’t even know the side effects and still let her eat it... causing her to stay this tiny for her whole life!”

”Well... being small is also quite cute, right?” Chen Qingxuan put on an appeasing smile, ”If you’re not satisfied, I can teach her a secret technique... to transform into an adult’s appearance.”

”Need you to teach her?”

Ji Li coldly interrupted.

”Right.”

Chen Qingxuan suddenly remembered that his Beloved Disciple had already mastered a transformation method different from Huang Qingxue and Jiang Susu’s, so there was no need for him to be redundant.

”This level of strength you have... how many women have you slept with?” Ji Li suddenly changed the subject, her pair of crimson phoenix eyes scrutinizing Chen Qingxuan, revealing a bit of disdain and contempt.

Chen Qingxuan was taken aback, ”No... using women as Cauldrons, that’s all a misunderstanding from the outside world, don’t tell me you’re that shallow too?”

”Who knows?”

Ji Li rolled her eyes, her arms cradling her ample jade peaks.

Chen Qingxuan’s mouth twitched slightly, ”If you’re going to say that, then I can only ask you... do you want to be my Cauldron too? Let’s have a ’cloud and rain’ session together to improve, it’s faster and more pleasurable than Cultivating.”

”You...”

Ji Li immediately frowned;

The next moment, she summoned the black-red whip again, glaring fiercely at Chen Qingxuan.

”Alright, alright, alright.”

Chen Qingxuan didn’t really want to anger her, ”Let’s not talk about this nonsense. We haven’t seen each other for so many years, you must have many questions for me... ask away, I’ll answer you all truthfully.”

”Hmph, you better stop being glib with me from now on... this venerable one’s patience has limits!”

Ji Li first issued a warning.

Immediately after, she put away the whip again and demanded, ”How exactly did you get this level of strength?”

”I already said I’m an outer domain heavenly demon.” Chen Qingxuan brought out the prepared explanation, ”Actually, I’ve always been stronger than you, I was just biding my time before, unwilling to reveal my strength. Don’t tell me you think... I only grew to this level after leaving the Demon Emperor Palace? Is that possible?”

”...”

Ji Li couldn’t deny it;

After all, growing to such strength in such a short time... was probably simply impossible.

Could it be he was truly stronger than her before, just deliberately hiding his strength?

Thinking of this, Ji Li pressed further, ”What exactly is an outer domain heavenly demon? Are you a legendary Demon Race member?”

”Emm...”

Chen Qingxuan shook his head, ”It’s an adjective. Simply put, I wasn’t born on the Cangyun Continent. You can think of me as... another type of person!”

”A mixed person?”

”I’ll fuck your...?”

Chen Qingxuan was displeased.

”Perfectly fine... why are you swearing?”

”You said ’another type of person’ yourself.”

”That’s called an outer domain heavenly demon, dammit!”

”Oh~”

Ji Li let out a calm, breezy ’oh’.

Seeing Chen Qingxuan’s flustered and exasperated look, for some reason... it gave her a strange sense of satisfaction.

Chen Qingxuan sighed lightly, ”If you have anything else to ask, hurry up.”

Ji Li didn’t waste words either, ”Since you already escaped the Demon Emperor Palace back then, why are you coming back now?”

”To be honest, I pretended to be an Evil Cultivator and went on a killing spree, which made me a target of public criticism among the Human Race... Now I urgently need a place to stay.”

”You Bitch... I knew you had ulterior motives!”

Ji Li instantly couldn’t hold it in anymore.

Before she could open her mouth to refuse, Chen Qingxuan added, ”Don’t get angry either. I exposed my Demonic Power during the fight, and as everyone knows, the Demon Emperor Palace publicly announced that Qian You’s Revered Master is a Human Race expert... Someone might guess that I have a close relationship with the Demon Emperor Palace and come looking for trouble because of it... So this time I’m back, I’m both looking for a place to stay and also protecting the Demon Emperor Palace from being implicated because of me.”

”Of course, the most important thing is Qian You... This time I’m back, I plan to properly guide her Cultivation.”

”Qian You doesn’t need your guidance.”

”No!”

Before Ji Li could finish speaking, Chen Qingxuan interrupted, ”You probably don’t know yet, but in seven years... this world will be destroyed and remade.”

”We must ensure Qian You gains more powerful strength as soon as possible. This is beneficial and without harm for both her and you.”

”What did you say?”

World remaking... Ji Li thought she had misheard.

Until Chen Qingxuan confirmed it again;

Ji Li suddenly laughed, ”And then? Next, are you going to say the world is about to be destroyed, but you’re still a virgin, and before you die... you want to have some fun with which woman? Right?”

”What?”

Chen Qingxuan was dumbfounded.

Seeing the expression of three parts mockery, three parts indifference, and four parts disdain on Ji Li’s Face, he couldn’t help but stare in astonishment, ”Who... taught you that?”

”Hmph~ What kind of person do you think I am? Would I fall into the same pit twice?”

Ji Li snorted coldly.

Facing Chen Qingxuan’s bewildered gaze, she raised her chin arrogantly, ”To tell you the truth, ever since you made me lose utterly back then, I secretly swore never to be deceived by anyone again. So all these years, I’ve been collecting books from various places on identifying scumbags and bitches. Now, I have long memorized all that content.”

”You’d better put away those filthy, dirty, and wishful-thinking thoughts. Don’t think you can still rely on glib talk to deceive my trust.”

Ji Li said sternly: ”In this lifetime, you will never be able to deceive me again. I’ve already seen right through you.”

”No... I don’t have those thoughts!”

Chen Qingxuan spread his hands, urgently defending himself.

”Yes, just like that.”

A cold smile curled at the corner of Ji Li’s mouth;

Meeting Chen Qingxuan’s stunned gaze, she slowly said: ”There’s a very reasonable old saying: a man’s mouth is a lying ghost. The book says, even if you expose a man’s thoughts, he will still stubbornly refuse to admit it... just like you are now.”

”Holy shit, what the hell...?”

Chen Qingxuan was speechless.

But before he could finish speaking, Ji Li directly interrupted: ”Angry, are you? Well, the book also says that once a man is exposed and his lies are seen through, he becomes flustered and exasperated... Look at your flustered and exasperated appearance now!”

”...”

Chen Qingxuan felt a black line forming on his forehead;

But just... he was powerless to refute it.

The next moment, Chen Qingxuan could only interrupt: ”Madam, in the future, those...”

”Don’t you dare call me Madam!”

Ji Li suddenly became furious.

Facing Chen Qingxuan’s frozen expression, she said coldly: ”Don’t think I don’t know your intentions. It’s all recorded in the books. Your trick is psychological suggestion... first, by being shameless, you make something special become ordinary, like this overly intimate form of address. Once I really don’t mind you calling me that, you’ll become even more presumptuous...”

”Chen Qingxuan, I am not an uncivilized Little Girl. Put away your improper thoughts... There is never any possibility between you and me!”

Ji Li narrowed her phoenix eyes, coldly refusing.

”?”

Chen Qingxuan was utterly dumbfounded;

What nonsense is this?

Does she suspect I’m lusting after her body?

”I...”

Chen Qingxuan was just about to open his mouth to deny it, that he absolutely had no such thoughts;

But the words on the tip of his tongue, upon seeing Ji Li’s condescending look, were swallowed back the next moment.

He felt that saying it would also be taken as an excuse.

At this moment, he just wanted to know: ”Who wrote that book? Tell me his name!”

”See, you’re getting impatient again.”

Ji Li shook her head with an air of having everything under control;

Looking at Chen Qingxuan’s flustered and exasperated appearance, really... it felt satisfying to her.

”Fine, fine, fine.” Chen Qingxuan raised his hand not in apology, but because he couldn’t be bothered to argue, ”Anyway, I didn’t expect you to believe the world is about to be remade. The reason I told you was simply to let you mentally prepare, so you won’t be caught off guard when it happens in the future.”

”Alright, do you have any other questions?”

Chen Qingxuan brought the topic back.

”...”

Ji Li did not make a sound.

If it were anyone else deceiving her, forget sitting down for a proper chat at this moment, they would have already been killed by her.

But as for Chen Qingxuan’s words... perhaps because she knew her own strength was no match for his... even though her anger hadn’t subsided, Ji Li didn’t continue shouting about fighting and killing.

After all, in the past, her bottom line had always been exceptionally flexible when it came to Chen Qingxuan.

Seeing her silent, Chen Qingxuan continued: ”Since we’ve already talked it out, then have Xuan Ling prepare accommodations for the people I brought. We plan to stay long-term in the Demon Emperor Palace.”

”?”

Ji Li was stunned, staring straight into Chen Qingxuan’s eyes, ”Is this your home?”

”Ahem!”

Chen Qingxuan guiltily rubbed his nose;

Facing Ji Li’s displeased expression, he forced a smile and said, ”After all, I am Qian You’s Revered Master. Although those girls are of the Human Race, rest assured, with me here, they would never do anything harmful to the Demon Emperor Palace... Madam, just do it as a favor to me!”

”Are you going to get lost or not?”

Ji Li refused without mercy.

Joking, letting her shelter a group of the Human Race in the Demon Emperor Palace... she is, after all, a dignified Demon Lord.

Not to mention, if word got out, she would surely be ridiculed by the entire Yao Race;

Now, being able to have a proper conversation with Chen Qingxuan is already her humbling herself.

Does he really think she has no bottom line?

Not long after.

Ji Li pushed open a door and came out, ”Qian You, take them to the Back Garden of the Demon Emperor Palace to settle down. Remember to have Xuan Ling notify the palace guards not to approach that place normally.”

As she spoke, Ji Li also handed a space ring to her daughter, ”There are many spiritual items inside, enough for you to use for over a decade. Spend lavishly, no need to save!”

”Okay, Mother~”

Ji Qianyou accepted the ring while happily agreeing.

”...”

Looking at that space ring, Chen Qingxuan hesitated to speak;

Then,

Led by Ji Qianyou, Chen Qingxuan and Zhao Xiaoyin and the other girls from the Hundred Flowers Tower headed towards the vacant Back Garden within the Demon Emperor Palace.

Back in the day, that place was where Ji Qianyou cultivated, and it was the only place Chen Qingxuan could move around. But ever since Chen Qingxuan escaped, and as the Little Girl’s strength grew stronger and stronger... the Back Garden’s Barrier was insufficient to support cultivation and couldn’t conceal the aura of the Demon Emperor Bloodline, so the place was left unused.

And because this place was close to the mother and daughter’s Sleeping Hall, located in the core area of the Demon Emperor Palace, it naturally couldn’t be casually given to the powerful individuals within the palace for use.

There were many rooms in the Back Garden, enough for all the women to live in.

”Revered Master, that room is your residence.” Ji Qianyou pointed to the most imposing Sleeping Hall in the center, smiling sweetly, ”I’ll take you there!”

”Okay.”

Chen Qingxuan nodded with a smile.

After telling Zhao Xiaoyin and the other girls to go clean their respective rooms first, he followed his little disciple to his own residence.

Inside the Sleeping Hall.

Although no one had lived there for a long time, the living supplies and cleanliness inside were pleasing to both body and mind.

Creak——

At that moment, the door was closed from the inside by Ji Qianyou.

Chen Qingxuan turned to look;

He saw his Beloved Disciple leaning back against the door, raising her adorable, pretty Face, and tilting her head to say to him,

”Revered Master, now that Mother isn’t here... do you want to hug me?”

”Yes, yes!”
