Before Qiao Chu and Qing Lianzi crossed over, this book was indeed the way Feng Yi described it: a story about a black lotus flower female protagonist who obtained an absolute golden finger and conquered the harem one by one.

And I am the biggest villain in the book, the only cannon fodder.

The arrival of Qiao Chu and Qing Lianzi changed the course of this story.

In addition,

Feng Yi happened to pass by the bank of the Mojie Forgetfulness River on the day they arrived, so she had this memory with them.

In the past life, Qiao Chu and Qing Lianzi were very good. When Qing Lianzi was ill, Qiao Chu even gave her a kidney.

For Qiao Chu, although Qing Lianzi originally came for her own interests, Qing Lianzi was still her redemption.

Because it was Qing Lianzi who took her out of the orphanage.

Qing Lianzi was selfish, arrogant, and unruly, but she was also good at disguising herself, making it hard for people to figure her out.

Qiao Chu accompanied her and became her follower, as if this could bring more light to her.

Until the moth flew into the fire and burned its wings, she suddenly saw the evils she had previously ignored in the ashes.

So they were killed by Qing Lianzi's avengers and lay dead on the street.

Qiao Chu suddenly regretted it, distinguishing right from wrong, who was right and who was wrong, and felt that they deserved this fate.

In Qiao Chu's memory, it was Qing Lianzi herself who was responsible for the matter of reincarnation.

They were originally twin lotus flowers, one black and one white.

The white lotus preferred the sun and was always weaker than the black lotus when living in the Mojie.

The system gave them a mission.

After the destruction of the world, they would be reborn.

This time, Qiao Chu chose not to help Qing Lianzi, so Qing Lianzi jumped into the cycle of reincarnation alone to carry out her plan. Her lotus body was weak, so it was better to abandon it directly.

The original female protagonist disappeared from these three realms because of their existence, and her luck fell on the head of this villain.

Qing Lianzi intended to seize luck and used the Divine Scripture to destroy the three realms.

In the end, I escaped from this world and returned to Qiao Chu.

"I don't understand, why did the Emperor follow her to destroy these three realms?"

"Back then, it was clearly the Emperor's clan that used all their power to protect this world."

"Now the Emperor has become the only phoenix in this world."

Qiao Chu pressed on my shoulder:

"If Qing Lianzi told the Emperor that there could have been another way back then, that the Phoenix clan should not have suffered this catastrophe, wouldn't he feel resentful?"

"She showed the Emperor many cycles of reincarnation of the Phoenix clan in the mortal realm and chose those who didn't live well."

"The Emperor's incarnation as the Emperor is the most susceptible to being swayed by human hearts."

Qiao Chu's voice echoed in my ears, making my head spin and causing a severe headache.

"Zhu Lan, what should you choose? Don't you understand yet?"

"Help me! Give everything to me, and together we can save the people of this world."

"You are the Heavenly Emperor, how can you abandon the people?"

"They are all watching you!"

I covered my head, as if thousands of people were begging for help and crying in my ears.

The voices were chaotic and piercing, causing my ears to ache.

"Save me..."

"I still have children, I haven't lived enough..."

It seemed like something was flowing down my face.

It hurts, huff—

With a "pu-chi" sound, I opened my eyes and saw Qiao Chu firmly holding my heart.

"So, this is what the heart of the Heavenly Emperor looks like."

My vision blurred, and my limbs turned icy cold.

No, she wasn't Qiao Chu.

She was Qing Lianzi.

There was only one black lotus flower in the Mojie.

Qiao Chu and Qing Lianzi were both her.

What she wanted was to breach my defenses.

In the last moment of losing consciousness, I saw her squeezing Cuihua's neck and smashing it to the ground like a filthy thing.

"No... Don't."
