Chapter 2694: Confession
Meanwhile, Yan Xuehen was in the neighboring room. The air before her rippled like water before forming a mirror. The images in the mirror reflected what Yun Jianyue was experiencing in her dream.
Even Yan Xuehen was awed. I’d have never been able to pull this off without Jing Teng, Xie Daoyun, and Qi Yaoguang’s help. A person reacts the most genuinely in an illusion like this.
She tightly grabbed her sleeves. She had never felt so nervous before. On one hand, she could claim the upper hand against the demoness if she could acquire evidence of Yun Jianyue’s affair with Zu An. On the other hand, she was worried that there was really something between Yun Jianyue and Zu An.
Her relationship with Zu An defied convention and left her constantly nervous, but it also filled her with bliss. There were even times when she felt a sense of superiority over Yun Jianyue. But that meant nothing if Yun Jianyue was with Zu An too. The thought of sharing a man with the demoness made her feel worse than death.
The scenes revealed in the mirror made her breathing hasten.
The relationship between Yun Jianyue and Zu An clearly transcended friendship, but again, given that they'd only had each other in a foreign land, it was normal for them to be more intimate than usual.
When the scene cut to Zu An getting severely injured by the Annihilation Beast and needing dual cultivation with Yun Jianyue to survive, Yan Xuehen's heart pounded nervously. She wanted to see what Yun Jianyue would do here.
When Yun Jianyue unhesitatingly took off her belt, Yan Xuehen's heart nearly leaped out of her mouth. Could they be...
In the other room, Yun Jianyue suddenly stopped her movements. She sensed something was amiss, but she couldn’t put her finger on it. There seemed to be something wrong, but when she thought back on it, everything appeared to make sense.
She glanced at the unconscious Zu An and fell into deep thought.
...
In the imperial palace, the Empress Dowager and Bi Linglong were overjoyed by Zu An’s visit and welcomed him warmly.
