Debauched, malicious, despicable!

All the negative words could be used to describe the Empress Dowager. Given her pride, how could she easily fall for a demon? Not to mention struggling with the Empress Dowager for a man, to her, this was nothing short of an extreme humiliation.

But there was no helping it. Whether by the prophecy of the State Preceptor or by merging with the dragon spirit, the role of the Demon Lord was crucial and completely irreplaceable.

How she wished to announce to the world her hatred for the Demon Lord, yearning to grind his bones and scatter his ashes.

However, she could not, at least not yet.

On the contrary, she now needed to win the trust of the Demon Lord, to lure him into the maple forest, step into the Formation, and then control him with the Soul-locking Bell.

The plans were meticulously crafted, and she had been conspiring for a long time, not allowing for any failure.
