Chapter 0002: The Fallen Lady Lord

Although the two engaged in a physical relationship without emotional involvement, Zhu Minglang still felt a sense of regret

If the Empress were to be overthrown, there would be many ways to humiliate her. One such method would be to have her, in her exalted position, engage in intercourse with a homeless man from the lowest strata of society. This relationship would instantly transform her established pride, sanctity, and invincibility into "degradation" and "filth".

The Valkyrie appeared to be in a state of despair, but after a short while, her gaze regained focus. She stared intently at the small window, and it was evident that she was contemplating a way to escape from this place

What about her

I used to imprison myself with it

... ...

"Follow me, and do not make any sound," the Empress said softly

What other purposes are there

... ...

"Is there any difference? She has already achieved her goal," the Empress said coldly

The little ice bug crawled up the stone wall and soon found the iron window

The Valkyrie is indeed very familiar with this dungeon, and Zhu Minglang finds that even without guards, he cannot escape while walking inside; the dungeon is as vast as a labyrinth.

"Go, unlock the door, I know you can do it," Zhu Minglang said to Xiaobing.

The Valkyrie did not respond, which can be taken as tacit consent

After coming to this understanding, Zhu Minglang was left in a state of both laughter and tears.

After pulling Zhu Minglang up, the Empress was panting heavily, indicating that the poison had been lingering in her body. As someone with formidable martial power, she was now no different from a weak woman

"Put it on, I will pull you up." The Empress did not know from which part of the dungeon she had found two large burlap sacks, and she tore them open to barely make clothes to wear.

Before long, the sound of the chain falling off was heard

She must find a way to leave this place; she does not want what happened last night to occur again, especially since this is just the beginning

For myself, it was merely drinking a poisonous porridge, spending a night in a dungeon, and traveling for a few days.

Zhu Minglang stood in the dungeon, his gaze fixed upon her

The Empress did not heed Zhu Minglang's words at all. She was not driven to the point of losing her sanity, going mad, or weeping uncontrollably over this matter. Perhaps she felt such emotions internally, but she would only fully reveal her despair and pain after calmly resolving the current predicament and completing her revenge

She is the lord of Yongcheng, her power usurped, her chastity violated, reduced to hiding in a small room filled with the stench of silkworm excrement. The calmness she has displayed in recent days, along with her occasional moments of distraction, suggests that she has not easily forgotten this humiliation, but rather is transforming all her inner fury and humiliation into a quiet resolve for revenge

Are you familiar with this dungeon?" Zhu Minglang asked in a low voice.

Wishing Minglang a mind full of confusion

The little ice bug, with its round body, occasionally sways to reveal a ring of glistening, tender white fat, appearing somewhat clumsy and adorable as it wriggles. Its two large eyes sparkle with a hint of the extraordinary.

Indeed, the Empress turned around and left the dungeon alone, leaving Zhu Minglang behind in the dungeon

It turns out that I was used as the most insulting tool against a woman; indeed, there is no such thing as free porridge in this world

Walking towards the outskirts of the city, it wasn't long before I saw a squad of guards racing down the road one after another, clearly indicating that the news of the Valkyrie's escape had spread.

The Valkyrie found two chairs, joined them together, and lay there in silence.

The Empress cast a glance at Zhu Minglang and noticed that he was holding a small white worm in his hand, which caused her to snort coldly.

... ...

In summary, one must find a way to leave this place

Xiaosang Town is a gathering place for farmers engaged in sericulture, where many merchants from outside the city come to purchase raw silkworms and silk materials. The influx of transient population has been increasing, gradually transforming it into a place of mixed characters.

"You want to die, I will fulfill your wish right now." The Valkyrie Beichi's teeth were ground to dust, and her eyes shone with a murderous light

Ignorant optimism, unexpectedly having the thought to play with insects

The sound of snoring from Zhu Minglang, who was in deep sleep, suddenly ceased shortly thereafter. He opened his eyes and gazed at the Valkyrie lying on her side, slightly curled up, noticing the few glistening droplets hanging from her eyelashes... A soft sigh escaped his heart.

Although she was very much inclined to kill the man beside her, the Valkyrie also found a crucial piece of information in Zhu Minglang's words, which was that there were more homeless individuals being held outside, not just Zhu Minglang himself

By the way, there were quite a few refugees who were also poisoned and fainted with me. Could it be that they also..." Zhu Minglang suddenly recalled this matter

"That's great, little one, you are awake," Zhu Minglang suddenly said with excitement

If even the most humble mouse on the street can indulge in passionate entanglements with the most sacred Valkyrie, then what distinction is there between her and a prostitute? Oh, no, at least a prostitute has the option to choose her clients.

"Hehe, my little ice bug is capable of anything." Zhu Minglang smiled at the Empress.

"Help me up," the Empress said, her body feeling somewhat weak, clearly affected by some lingering love poison

If she were not so weak and powerless now, she would have truly torn Zhu Minglang apart

After walking for three days and three nights, Zhu Minglang and the Valkyrie finally escaped back to the town of Xiao Sang

Zhu Minglang immediately realized how foolish his question was as soon as it left his lips

Zhu Minglang's face immediately broke into a smile, quickly donning the sackcloth attire, and grasped the delicate hand extended by the Empress.

"Come over to my place and stay for a while," Zhu Minglang said.

Imprison yourself

What is her purpose

"Ahem." Zhu Minglang's face was filled with embarrassment, wondering why he had to bring up such an awkward topic.

"I am not a vagrant; I was simply robbed, lost my money, and then accidentally consumed poisoned porridge..." Zhu Minglang hurriedly explained

The stone walls of the dungeon are smooth, and it is impossible to climb up without someone giving a hand

"Women, the more beautiful they are, the less you can trust them" Zhu Minglang shook his head helplessly, just as he was about to have the little ice bug spit out some silk for him to climb up, when suddenly, the sound of footsteps as light as a cat echoed above his head

Struggling to climb out of the dungeon, the Empress hesitated and glanced back at Zhu Minglang.

Are you ill

Upon reaching the outskirts of the city, Zhu Minglang wiped the dirty soil from the ground onto himself, and also casually smeared two streaks on the Valkyrie's fair cheeks

Ding ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ''

She stood barefoot on Zhu Minglang's shoulders

We need to find a way to leave here, Zhu Minglang said seriously

In the end, they successfully left the city through a secret passage

Upon entering his own small courtyard and cottage, Zhu Minglang immediately rolled onto his bed and fell asleep

Zhu Minglang opened his right palm, conjuring a small milky-white ice insect as if performing a magic trick

The more outsiders there are, the easier it is to hide. Zhu Minglang and the Valkyrie traveled through the night, daring not to rest much during the day, and they were truly exhausted.

If a different man were brought in every day, she would rather bite her tongue and end her life than endure such humiliation

She was equally exhausted, and on top of that, the occurrence of such an event had dealt her an extremely heavy blow internally. However, she did not fall asleep immediately; instead, she reflected on the events of the past few days, and her eyes involuntarily became a bit moist.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Empress's eyes suddenly brightened, and the joy on her face was difficult to conceal
