Shang Ruyi's heartbeat also grew tense.
She was not unaware that the man in front of her wasn't truly "Yang Suyi," nor was he an immaculate Immortal—he was Chu Yang, a Venerable Emperor who could flood the world with blood with a single rage!
Yet, because he habitually appeared with such a relaxed demeanor, and even had once humbled himself to admit wrong and apologize before her, Shang Ruyi hoped that her persistence this time might be permitted.
But, no.
The shadowy gaze in those slender phoenix eyes was something she had never faced before, and at this moment, she realized that perhaps she had never truly seen the true face of this Emperor.
Violently ruthless, he even disregarded all propriety.
Shang Ruyi instinctively wanted to step back, but as her body slightly moved backward, Chu Yang suddenly reached out and pinched her chin.
His fingers, even colder than hers, felt like an icy blade grazing her skin.
Shang Ruyi trembled violently, instinctively wanting to escape.
