My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Between her brows, it seemed as if her Primordial Spirit was also sitting in the same posture, bit by bit, Heavenly and Earthly Qi seeped into her Primordial Spirit, strengthening it, making it seem more solid and tangible, the powerful force of the Primordial Spirit being employed without any obstruction at this moment.

The power of the Primordial Spirit, as if it turned substantive, transformed into a blade, gently scraping the pink luster on the surface of the Primordial Spirit as well as slowly and steadfastly removing the Charm Eyes Divine Power Marks that were being imprinted into her Primordial Spirit.

Each time her Primordial Spirit was cleansed by the Qi, the Queen of the South Ming's beautiful countenance became a shade paler.

As she washed her Primordial Spirit, time slowly passed by.

The sky gradually brightened, a band of pale light appeared in the eastern horizon, and the earth likewise began to light up. The light blue sky was touched with a layer of pink, beneath which countless streaks of gold hid, the dawn blossoming like flowers, dispersing like ripples across water.

At this moment, the Queen of South Ming let out a turbid breath slowly, her stunning face filled with fatigue, her forehead dotted with large beads of sweat as if she had just been through a very exhausting battle, her chest heaving up and down, breathing out as if through orchids.

She had no time to relax when suddenly, a voice from outside the door, the Maiden Lan Ping, transmitted in.

"Princess."

The Maiden Lan Ping called out.

On hearing the maiden's voice, the Queen of South Ming's pretty eyebrows knit slightly together; she was thoroughly exhausted.

"What is it?" the Queen of South Ming mustered her energy and asked.

"There is a guest to see you."

Upon hearing this, the Queen of South Ming stated directly, "Send them away; I will see no one."

The Divine Power Marks of the Charm Eyes that Cheng Guang had imprinted into her Primordial Spirit were not yet entirely removed, and the Queen of South Ming estimated that it would take her another two or three times to completely eradicate the Charm Eyes Divine Power Marks and utterly erase the influence they brought.

She dared not leave her room or receive guests at this time.

She just wanted to hide quietly in her room for a few days until the effects that the Charm Eyes from Cheng Guang had brought were mostly gone before she stepped outside.

However, what the Maiden Lan Ping said next made it impossible for the Queen of South Ming to remain calm.

"Princess, the Princely Heir has come…"

Princely Heir?

The Town-Nation Duke's Heir?

What is he doing here?

Was embarrassing her last night not enough that he wants another round today?

Does he not fear I'll retaliate??

The Queen of South Ming immediately sat up, laughing bitterly with a cool expression, "Very well, I can't touch you in Duke Zhen's Mansion, but here in my own home, even if I were to kill you outright, no one would respond in time."

"If you seek death, you can't blame me."

The Queen of South Ming spoke clearly, "Let him in."

No sooner had the words left the Queen of South Ming's mouth than the voice that responded was not that of Maiden Lan Ping but rather a young man's amused laughter.

"Aunt, yesterday you invited me to come over for a leisurely visit, and this morning, your nephew couldn't wait to come."

Cheng Guang, clad in a moon-white robe with a dazzling, crystalline jade pendant hanging from his waist, entered with a slight smile on his handsome face as he looked upon the seductive, voluptuous figure of the Queen of South Ming.

After glancing over the Queen of South Ming's body, Cheng Guang then let his gaze settle upon her somewhat cold but incomparably noble face.

"Aunt, after a day apart, why has your face turned so pale?" he mused.

"Could it be that you were up to something all by yourself last night?"

As he spoke, Cheng Guang sighed, "Aunt, a woman of thirty is at her prime, but these matters should still be handled with restraint."

Cheng Guang's tone was calm and steady, each word distinct as they reached the Queen of South Ming's ears, causing her expression to become even more unsightly.

She was no longer in the mood to continue the charade with Cheng Guang.

Cheng Guang knew that the King of South Ming was indeed the crown prince, while Cheng Guang himself was still the Duke's Princely Heir, the two were naturally in a state of irreconcilable conflict.

She had already not expected Cheng Guang to come up here, knowing there was little chance she would have to deal with him personally.

Yet the Queen of South Ming had not anticipated that mere one night later, Cheng Guang would take the initiative to come over again?

The Queen of South Ming's beautiful face grew colder, but she just laughed, "Nephew, you're quite brave, knowing your aunt is at her prime. Aren't you afraid your aunt will eat you alive?"

As she spoke, the air around her gradually began to emanate, the formidable aura of the Primordial Spirit swirling like storms throughout the room.

Many maidens and servants outside felt an inexplicable chill, unwittingly drawing their clothes tighter around themselves as they looked up at the sky, puzzled as to why the weather was still fluctuating despite it being almost March.

Faced with the Queen of South Ming's actions, Cheng Guang showed little panic on his face.

He merely chuckled.

"Aunt, I harbor no ill intent. I came especially to help you remove the Charm Eyes, and also to discuss an important matter with you," stated Cheng Guang.

His words caused the Queen of South Ming's actions to falter slightly, her expression shifting, her mind momentarily befuddled.

She even began to doubt her own ears.

No ill intent??

Right when you came, I felt nothing but hostility!

And now you say you're here to help me remove the Charm Eyes? As if I would believe you—that would be a real ghost story.

The Queen of South Ming was ready to refuse, but then her head suddenly throbbed with pain. The damn Charm Eyes Mark, even with just a trace left, was still influencing her mind.
