"If Wu Lie is not removed, he will always be a concern."

Xuanqing Pool.
The large bath was shrouded in steam, and amidst the mist, a stunningly beautiful figure could be vaguely seen.
The Empress shed her palace gown, stepped into the pool with her long legs, and slowly submerged her body into the warm water. Her mood gradually calmed down, though there was a hint of guilt between her brows.
She always felt somewhat indebted to Chen Mo.
Reflecting carefully, the various dangers Chen Mo had faced during this time were either resolved by his strong fortune or by the help of Yu Youhan and the Daoist Venerable. As the Empress, she hardly managed to assist him.
Not only that, but she also misjudged the situation, underestimating Wu Lie's determination to "rebirth", to the extent that she didn't even know the palace had been dug through underneath!
