Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 1119: Flooded the Dragon King Temple

The woman looked at Qin Yi with an incredulous expression, but soon calmed down.

"Do you know who I am?" the woman asked.

Qin Yi was taken aback, feeling a sudden jolt in his heart. Could this woman actually be the Eldest Princess? If she really was, that would be awkward.

"You... are you the Eldest Princess?" Qin Yi asked tentatively.

The woman was slightly surprised, her expression turning playful, teasingly looking at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi smiled bitterly inside. Damn, how could I be so stupid? I just said I was sent by the Eldest Princess, yet this woman asked if the Eldest Princess sent me. This proves that the beauty in front of me isn't the Eldest Princess at all.

"I'm really dumb!"

Qin Yi felt like crying at his own stupidity—making such a basic mistake was like confessing without being asked.

The woman's eyes were filled with amusement. "So, who exactly are you?"

"Haha..." Qin Yi awkwardly chuckled, "Actually, who I am doesn't really matter, right? What's important is that you pretend I was never here, and we've never met. It's better for both of us that way."

The corner of the woman's mouth lifted slightly, her smile looking truly beautiful, but her tone was unapologetic. "What if I don't agree?"

Qin Yi shrugged, "Honestly, there's no personal grievance between us, I really don't want to hurt you."

"Do you think you can overpower me?" the woman asked.

Qin Yi's lips curled into a slight smile, "Though your cultivation is impressive, within three moves, you will surely lose. So, I sincerely suggest you just pretend I was never here. You're so beautiful; if I accidentally ruin your face, that wouldn't be good."

The woman sneered, "I see, this isn't a suggestion but a threat."

"You can think of it that way. Beauty, actually it's more of a suggestion. I'm quite chivalrous and I really don't want to harm you. So, please step aside."

The woman slightly squinted her beautiful eyes, studying Qin Yi for a moment before speaking: "Even if what you're saying is true, and I'm no match for you, you must know that within three moves I can definitely alert the others. Once they find out, there's no way you'd escape the Royal Family."

"Don't overestimate the people outside. If I can get in, I can get out," Qin Yi said confidently.

The woman laughed.

Qin Yi also laughed, as her laughter was infectious. Moreover, this laughter seemed to suggest letting bygones be bygones. It seemed she was persuaded by him.

"So, are you sneaking around?"

Qin Yi: "..."

Damn, this woman is too cunning, trying to get me to spill the beans.

"No, actually, I'm with the Eldest Prince, living in the Royal Family."

The woman smiled slightly, "I advise you to tell me the truth because I will really call for help. The Royal Family's influence is not as simple as you think. As soon as you're discovered, I guarantee you won't walk out alive."

Qin Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, a cold glint flashing, "Do you want to try? I'm confident I can subdue you before you call for help. Beauty, if I subdue you, I'm quite the lecherous man, and with a beauty like you, it'd be normal if I couldn't help myself from doing something."

The woman looked at Qin Yi playfully, "I do want to try and see if you subdue me first, or if I call for help first."

Qin Yi: "..."

"Are you insane? You're so pretty, do you really want to push me to do something? I'm warning you, my nickname is 'Ghost Fear,' known for destroying flowers. Don't push me."

The woman's mouth twitched a couple of times, "I could stop pushing, but you have to tell me who you are."

"Is there something wrong with you? I've already let you go, and you're still not satisfied. What exactly..." Qin Yi was speaking, then suddenly froze, looking at the woman with a peculiar expression, "You aren't falling for me, are you? I'd advise you to drop it. I'm so handsome, there's no way I'd give up an entire forest for you. Though you're beautiful, it doesn't matter."

The woman's eyes turned cold, "Rogue, are you seriously planning to make me call for help?"

As she spoke, the woman opened her mouth to call for help.

Qin Yi panicked immediately, "No, no, no, beauty, let's talk, let's discuss. Women should be obedient, that's cuter."

The woman's eyes flashed with a hint of triumph. "So, who are you, really?"

"Actually..." Qin Yi suddenly fell silent, glancing around mysteriously before beckoning her closer, "Actually, actually I..."

"Stop." The woman said calmly, "Don't think I can't see through your little tricks."

Qin Yi was embarrassed. He had planned to approach and attack her suddenly when he got close, but the woman was so astute, she saw right through him.

"You, boy, you're really not honest at all. Under these circumstances, I can only call for help."

"No, please don't!" Qin Yi hurriedly said. The Royal Family was full of experts, and who knew if there were some hidden ones he couldn't handle. Breaking out of the Royal Family, he really wasn't confident.

"Alright, I'll be honest. Actually, I'm with the Second Prince."

The woman said nothing, looking at Qin Yi with a half-smile, clearly not believing him.

Qin Yi rubbed his nose, "Really, I'm telling the truth this time."

"The Eldest Prince, the Second Prince, the Eldest Princess—I'm familiar with the experts around all three of them. You're not one of their people. Who are you really? I'll give you one last chance; I'm running out of patience."

Qin Yi was taken aback. The woman's aura was really strong, her words carrying a momentum that compelled submission.

A flash of light appeared in Qin Yi's eyes, "I know who you are. You're the Empress."

This woman's aura wasn't the pressure of a Qi Refiner but a momentum cultivated over a long period of holding a high position. Even someone of his cultivation was influenced in thought; her identity was definitely extraordinary—likely the current Empress.

The woman froze, looking at Qin Yi in surprise.

Qin Yi knew he guessed right; she mentioned being familiar with the influence of the Eldest Prince, Second Prince, and Eldest Princess. This indicated her high status—an ordinary concubine wouldn't dare say this. Only the Empress had such authority.

Qin Yi laughed, "The old Emperor is indeed blessed, having found such a beautiful woman like you. No wonder everyone wants to be Emperor. Just this reason alone would suffice. Beauty, since you're the Empress, you're Yun Baixuan's mother—I might as well be honest. I am indeed with the Second Prince. If you don't believe me, see this."

With those words, Qin Yi flipped his hand, a flash of light, and a golden token appeared in his palm.

This token was taken from Gao Tianhuan and Li Changdi when he killed them. Qin Yi had kept it, just in case it came in handy. And here it was being put to use.

The woman slowly reached out her hand.

Qin Yi tossed the token to her, and she caught it, examining it for a moment, "It is indeed the Second Prince's token. Are you really with the Second Prince?"

"You bet," Qin Yi said with a smile, "It's a good thing you didn't call for help just now, or else it would have been a disaster. Truly a case of the Dragon King Temple being flooded—family not recognizing family. We almost had a misunderstanding."
