Regicide in the Seventh Life

My name is Xu Mengmeng, and this is my seventh life.

In my first life, I was his sword attendant. I died taking a calamity meant for him.

In my second life, I was his Dao companion. He pushed me off the Immortal-Fall Platform with his own hands.

In my sixth life, I detonated my inner core to die with him, but I still closed my eyes before he did.

In this life, I became the daughter of his enemy. My family forced a mute drug down my throat and sent me to marry him, the mad immortal lord, in my younger sister’s place.

In the bridal sedan, I used a silver needle to slash his neck as a wedding gift.

He gripped my chin and sneered. “An interesting mute. You’ll make a perfect poison taster.”

He imprisoned me in the Nether Abyss, took the blood from my heart, and refined it into his elixir of immortality.

But he didn’t know that, though I was born with mute meridians, I was the grandmaster of venomous magic. The supposedly discarded girl sent as a substitute bride was actually the former dynasty’s chief shadow guard.

Nor did he know that the soul-devouring demon tree in my arms, born at the same time as him, could devour all the deathly energy in the world, and even turn on its master.

Later, I trampled the authority he treasured most in the Immortal Realm beneath my feet and used the poison arts he had taught me to throw the Three Realms into chaos.

Yet he knelt before me with bloodshot eyes, trembling as he offered me his demonic heart.

“Mengmeng... Don’t leave me again, or I don’t know what kind of monster I’ll become.”

I smiled and crushed his demonic heart underfoot. “Chu Qiaojiu, in this seventh life, I’m the one who will kill the emperor.”
