Chapter 2049: Sacred Widow Body
As soon as that thought arose, Zu An reflexively gave the Second Empress a look. To a certain extent, the Second Prince also had to call the Second Empress mother, so he wasn’t exactly wrong...
The Second Empress gave him a confused look. She just felt that the way that he was looking at her was a bit strange, but she was too embarrassed to ask him in front of so many people.
Zu An quickly focused his thoughts and asked, “Right, where is the true sealed land?”
“It should be even deeper inside than Mengte City. As for exactly where it is, I don’t know,” the Second Empress said. She quickly realized that stopping there was a bit inappropriate, so she quickly added, “We were baited into this dangerous situation by the Second Prince as soon as we entered this place, and then we were betrayed by the Little Golden Peng King’s group. We were constantly running for our lives and didn’t have a chance to investigate any of these things.”
Zu An expressed his understanding. The fact that she could still help so many people escape even after falling into all kinds of traps, still managing to preserve most of their military strength, was already the most she could possibly do.
...
Then, they all began to enthusiastically discuss what happened. They summarized all of their respective clans’ records and knowledge on the sealed land, then cross-referenced that with what they had seen and heard personally. In the end, there were three areas that were the most likely locations for the real sealed land. One was to the north of Mengte City, one was to the northwest, and one was to the west. Furthermore, they were all largely unexplored areas that had to be investigated one by one.
Zu An wanted the Second Empress to bring her troops out of the sealed land, and planned to investigate those areas himself. After all, the army had fought through bitter battles for many days already, and almost everyone present had some injuries; several were extremely grave. It had been a long time since they had any sleep, and they were at their physical limits. They needed time to rest and regroup to recover their fighting strength.
Even so, the Second Empress and the other clan leaders didn’t agree to the plan. After all, this was the Fiend races’ sealed land, and Zu An was a human. They were already really grateful that he had saved their lives, so how could they let him face these dangers alone?
After talking for a long time, they finally reached an agreement. They would first send the most heavily injured individuals out of the sealed land while the rest recuperated in Mengte City, prepared to support Zu An at any time. Zu An knew that his individual power was limited, and that often, he did need the help of a large army. As such, he didn’t persist with his previous idea.
Zu An had initially been prepared to head out and investigate the different areas, but the Second Empress urged him to stay. He had just experienced a bloody battle and also needed rest. He was about to refuse, but in the end, when he saw the concern in her eyes, he agreed. Even though he'd been able to replenish his energy through that battle, the mental fatigue and tension were significant, especially after slaughtering so many creatures. Fortunately, they'd all been savage monsters who moved on instinct, or else even his dao heart could have wavered.
...
Soon after, he was given the best room in the city to rest. Inside the room, there was a formation prepared with the best ki stones, one that helped those inside recover from their injuries and helped them replenish their internal ki.
After seeing off the others, the Second Empress used the excuse that she still had something to discuss with Zu An to stay behind.
“What was it that you didn’t feel comfortable talking about in front of the others?” Zu An asked with a grave expression. Could it be that there were still more traitors hidden among those guys?
The Second Empress looked around. With her back to the door, she backed up slightly to close it before saying, “It's something we can’t let those guys know.” Then, she rushed straight into his arms and warmly caressed his face, neck, and shoulders, continuing, “You are way too nervous. Your entire body is so tense. That’s not a good thing when there are still so many unknown dangers ahead of us.”
Zu An laughed helplessly and said, “It’s not that I’m nervous, but rather that I’m really not used to the feeling of killing so much.”
“That's because deep down, you're still a warm and kind person,” the Second Empress said, looking up at him with her radiant eyes. “Someone like you almost doesn’t seem as if you grew up in this cruel world of cultivation. But it's precisely because you're like this that you're special, and that's why I'm willing to trust and share everything with you without holding anything back at all.”
There had actually been regents in the history of the Fiend races, but they were almost always influential ministers who held all authority within their grasp. In the past, the court’s empress and child emperor had often needed to join together to fight and scheme, to barely preserve imperial authority. Zu An was the only regent who was completely different, not caring about authority at all.
At first, the Second Empress, who had already lived in the palace for a long time, had secretly prepared some countermeasures. However, after spending more time with Zu An, she discovered that she had actually been overthinking things. As a result, from then on, she discovered that she had completely fallen into enemy hands. She'd thought that it was just a political ploy, but she seemed to have really experienced the taste of love herself...
On the surface, it seemed as if she'd won everything. An innocent and powerful regent was fully devoted to protecting her and her son, after all. However, she knew she had actually lost bitterly in this ordeal, and even given up her whole self, at that.
However, when she realized those things, her expression only became even warmer. Her finger gently moved across Zu An's lips and she sweetly said, “I stayed behind to help you with the leftover fierceness inside of you, to help you vent out all of your negative emotions. I don’t want someone like you to be affected by such emotions...”
After the Medusa Queen returned, the discussion as to who the most beautiful woman was became up for debate, but the most alluring woman was still definitely the Second Empress. Even Bluefield Country’s Tushan Yu, who was known for her charm, was a bit inferior.
In the past, whenever they saw the aged late Fiend Emperor sit together with the young and captivating Second Empress in the throne hall, all of the men had wondered if the late Fiend Emperor could still do the deed. They all wanted to take his place, and whenever they greeted the Second Empress, they hadn't been able to help but dream about her...
That was the effect of just seeing her from a distance, so how could it compare to having her soft and fragrant body right in one's arms while she continued to murmur words of affection?
Zu An couldn't hold back at all anymore. He pushed her against the wall and pressed up against her back.
The Second Empress was alarmed. She hadn’t expected him to be so rough! A hint of worry flickered in her eyes. It seemed there really were too many negative emotions left over from that battlefield. When she thought of that, she felt more and more pity for him. She used her warmest and most gentle side to comfort him.
In that instant, she even felt a bit proud. Everyone had witnessed that battle on the city gate tower, and the most arrogant experts had all asserted confidently that no one in this world could surpass the regent in matters of the sword. They had all spoken about how unstoppable it was, and how no one could stand in its way, and doing so would only result in destruction. freewe bnovel.com
And yet, she was biting her lip right now. Even the sharpest sword had a sheath that suited it, and she was the most suitable sheath for this man.
But shortly after, her eyes rolled back, and she realized that it was still too early for her to be pleased with herself. That exceptional sword was thrusting in and out ruthlessly; no others could compare. Trying to contain that exceptional and unrivaled sword ki all by herself didn’t seem to be that easy.

Xiao Yi, who was guarding the door outside, blushed.
Does this woman have no sense of shame? Thank goodness I had those guards all get lost earlier, or else there would be rumors about their passionate affair circulating all throughout the Fiend races.
At the same time, she was also quite shocked. After all, in their clan, the Second Empress was known for her special constitution. A hermit had once passed by their clan in the past. When he saw her, he had been extremely shocked, declaring that she possessed the legendary Sacred Widow Body. Such a constitution was rather ominous for her husband, as it portended that her husband was destined for a bad end. Its other effect was that her body was special. Put simply, she was a woman among women. Even the strongest man would immediately become completely defenseless against her and be unable to hold themselves back at all.
In the past, the old clan chief had chased the hermit away with a darkened expression. Unfortunately, the rumors of the Sacred Widow Body had still spread like wildfire. It was to the extent that the young elites of the clan had all been a bit worried when they heard that. Even though they admired her appearance, they had all worried about her special cursed body.
In the end, when the late Fiend Emperor passed by the clan and saw her stunning beauty, he had immediately decided to make her his new wife. At the time, he was advised by many people who mentioned her special constitution. They had worried that it would be disadvantageous for him. However, the late Fiend Emperor had dismissed those warnings with a laugh. He hadn't thought that someone as powerful as himself would need to fear such imaginary things.
But later on, sure enough, he had met a bitter end!
Xiao Yi wasn’t all that worried about the regent being cursed, actually. After all, he wasn’t the Second Empress’ husband, and with their status, they wouldn’t announce their relationship to the world. That meant her constitution’s issues didn’t matter.
Rather, she was shocked that the regent was actually not influenced by the other special trait of the Second Empress! Why did it sound as if it was the Second Empress who was completely defenseless and begging for mercy?
...
After an unknown amount of time passed, the Second Empress snuggled up in Zu An’s arms, her entire body soft and weak. As she looked at Zu An, her eyes were full of tender feelings as she said, “It’s alright, you don’t need to hold yourself back. I want to bear your child.”
Zu An frowned, saying, “You don’t need to test me like this. The young emperor is still alive and healthy. I have no intentions of changing him out.”
The Second Empress shook her head. Her beautiful hair created a stark contrast as it fell onto her jade-like skin. She said, “I'm not testing you. I only want to help you by bearing a son. It's unrelated to status or authority. I’ve discovered that I can't stop myself from loving you anymore. If I can't have a child with you, I'll regret it for the rest of my life!”
