Su Mu stood there timidly, nervously tugging at the hem of her skirt.

But upon hearing the Empress's words, her anger flared up immediately. "Pei Longyue, open this for me right now!"

With that, she took a step forward, intent on confronting the Empress, but tripped and nearly fell headlong to the ground.

The Empress smiled gently and said, "Haven't you tried already? It's impossible to open."

Su Mu was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

The Empress squatted down and said softly, "I mean, this artifact was taken from an ancient ruins. I only know how to use it, but I don't know how to open it."

A thunderbolt struck Su Mu's mind, and she felt like crying. "Pei Longyue, what exactly do you want?"

The Empress stepped forward, lifted the stunned Su Mu, and carried her into the room.

Realizing what was happening, Su Mu weakly pounded her small fists against the Empress's shoulder, "Let go of me! You vile woman!"

The Empress frowned, effortlessly grabbed Su Mu's flailing hands with one hand, and whispered in her ear, "Be good and stop struggling. If I'm in a good mood, I might remember how to unlock the shackles~"

Su Mu instantly fell silent, obedient as a puppet.

Not far away, Pei Xuanyin watched her sister effortlessly handle the fierce Little Fox with envy. When would she also get to be close to Foxy like that?

The Empress placed Su Mu in front of a dressing mirror, gently straightening her head, and soothingly rubbed her nervously twitching fox ears.

Su Mu had no idea what the Empress was doing. She could only see in the mirror's reflection the Empress's deft hands working on her head.

Pei Xuanyin curiously touched here and there, evidently very intrigued by Su Mu's transformed appearance.

Moonlight poured down, casting a gentle, romantic glow on the bamboo leaves in the courtyard.

The Empress took the final hairpin and placed it at the back of Su Mu's head, then flicked her delicate nose.

"You can open your eyes now."

Hesitant, Su Mu opened her eyes and immediately froze.

"This... who is this?"

Her face, naturally flawless, had a touch of blush that added a healthy glow to her skin. A radiant mark of orchids and jade shone between her brows, reflecting the moonlight spilling through the window.

Her light pink gauze dress, interwoven with gold and silver threads, accentuated her slender waist. Her delicate arms were partly visible under the gauze, and her uneasy hands were clasped in front of her chest.

Most striking was her predominantly pinkish-white hair, adorned with various hair ornaments. Half of her hair was styled into a bun with a hairpin, while the other half draped over her neck, highlighting her smooth, jade-like skin.

If a cultured person were present, they would undoubtedly praise her as a beauty befitting the heavens.

The Empress clicked her tongue and smirked, "Who is this? Who else but you."

Su Mu, unusually, did not retort. She stared at the bronze mirror in a daze.

Looking at the face identical to Xiao Bai's, she murmured, "So beautiful."

But she quickly shook her head, causing the hairpins and bells to jingle.

"This is... me? No, this is Xiao Bai! This can't be me!"

Yet, as she raised her pink eyes and poked her cheek, the person in the mirror mimicked her actions.

"Is this... really me?" she murmured again.

Her thoughts were in turmoil. The mirror no longer reflected the handsome, strong image she once had.

The faint shadow of the boy in the mirror suddenly shattered, transforming into scattered light.

Su Mu reached out to grasp it, but could only touch the air.

Her fingers rested on the mirror, her eyes filled with melancholy, making her exceptionally beautiful.

"Master..."

Hearing Xiao Bai's soft voice, Su Mu seemed to regain her senses.

"Master, to Xiao Bai, you will always be Master. No matter what you become, you will always be the one who saved me, cherished me, loved me, and stayed with me..."

Su Mu's mind began to clear. Yes, those who love me and whom I love are still here. No matter what I become, whether man or woman, even if I become a terrifying monster, I am still me. I am Su Mu, the disciple of my master, the junior brother of my senior siblings, the one who shares a bond with Xiao Bai.

Her heart warmed with enthusiasm, and she hugged herself as if embracing her new self.

She needed to cherish this new life, a second chance earned by Xiao Bai's sacrifice.

Her pink eyes shone brightly, and Su Mu no longer felt melancholy or conflicted...

The Empress, used to Su Mu's daydreaming, was in no rush. She quietly admired her handiwork.

Her eyes flickered, noticing a fluffy tail stuck in the back of Su Mu's skirt.

She reached out and straightened the tail, holding it in her hand.

The tugging sensation at the base of her tail made Su Mu clench her legs and glare at the Empress in embarrassment.

"Let go... ah..." The strange pleasure hit her soul, causing her fox ears to perk up.

The Empress gave a sharp tug, making Su Mu stumble. The shackles on her ankles clinked, and she fell toward the Empress.

The mix of pain, itchiness, comfort, and shame assaulted Su Mu's senses. Her blush deepened.

"Ah... let go..." She couldn't hold back!

Watching the increasingly intimate scene, Pei Xuanyin covered her eyes, "Um... sis, I'll... I'll go bathe first..."

"Bang!" "Ow!" The girl covering her eyes hit the doorframe on her way out, tearfully closing the door behind her.

With Pei Xuanyin gone, the Empress's face showed a hint of uncontrollable joy. She was finding it harder to restrain her thoughts about Su Mu.

When had this started? Was it when she first grabbed her tail, or when Su Mu, in her transformed state for the first time, snuggled adorably in her arms...

No.. it doesn't really matter. There's plenty of time. At this moment, Pei Longyue shed her Empress mask, thoroughly enjoying stroking Su Mu's two tails, which were wrapping around her arms.

Su Mu was in utter panic. Earlier, when she had been close with Xiao Bai, she already felt strange. Now, with her tail tightly held, the out-of-control sensation was overwhelming. Was she broken... why was her tail reacting to this vile woman? Stop it!

"Pei... Pei Longyue... let... let go... ah..."

But Pei Longyue, listening to Su Mu's soft, shy voice, grew even more excited.

Her hands, no longer satisfied with just stroking the tails, began exploring upward along the pink gauze dress.

Su Mu reached out, trying to push Pei Longyue away, but was pulled into the soft embrace.

Pei Longyue's skilled fingers untied the knots on the gauze dress, roaming freely.

Suddenly, her palm squeezed, the soft sensation filling her hand, bringing a flush of pleasure to Pei Longyue's face.

"Ah..." Feeling the tug, Su Mu struggled, trying to escape. But her tails were tightly wrapped around Pei Longyue's arms, inseparable. Her legs were shackled, and the chain between them was stepped on by Pei Longyue.

Desperately, Su Mu reached out with her only free hands, trying to push the Empress away, but ended up pressing on her chest.

Even through the clothes, she could feel the softness.

To be continued...
