231: Rainbow Crystal
The monster let out a miserable shriek.
“Ahhh...”
Following this, its massive body crashed heavily to the ground... The black resentment gradually dissipated, and everything around them returned to calm.
Shang Wan Ning breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the son of heaven sword plunged into the monster's corpse.
With a flick of her wrist, a Seven-Colored Crystal Stone the size of a goose egg landed steadily in her palm.
At first glance, the crystal stone glowed with a seven-colored rainbow light, dazzling and mesmerizing.
With a “whoosh,” Olexia hastily retracted her protective barrier and scurried over with a fawning expression.
Her eyes were glued to the Seven-Colored Crystal Stone; her gaze was like a hungry wolf spotting fat meat, and she unconsciously swallowed hard.
“A Ning, seeing as I reminded you, just give this Seven-Colored Crystal Stone to me.”
Olexia spoke with a hint of flattery, acting as if the Seven-Colored Crystal Stone was already hers.
Shang Wan Ning's lips curled slightly, revealing a subtle hint of mockery.
She slowly retracted the son of heaven sword, then dangled the Seven-Colored Crystal Stone in front of Olexia, teasing her a few times.
“If Your Excellency wants this Seven-Colored Crystal Stone, why don't you first tell Me what benefits it holds for you?”
The Seven-Colored Crystal Stone emitted a dazzling rainbow light in the Empress's palm, and Olexia's mind was completely captivated by the glow; her eyes only registered the presence of the Seven-Colored Crystal Stone.
“Hmm~ Its purpose~ well~” Olexia stammered, finding it difficult to articulate.
‘She’ found it strange herself; usually, when discussing girl stuff with Meng Jiang and Chen Yu, she was always eloquent and passionate.
But the moment she faced Shang Wan Ning, she suddenly became like a rookie office worker, unable to speak fluently.
Especially when facing Shang Wan Ning's cold, gorgeous, and stingy demeanor.
She always felt that discussing things like perfume, lipstick, and beauty enhancement with Shang Wan Ning...
...was simply a form of blasphemy.
“My patience is limited. If Your Excellency doesn't clearly explain the use of this Seven-Colored Crystal Stone soon, I will simply keep it.”
Shang Wan Ning feigned calmness and leaned closer.
At the same time, she took out a delicate small gift box from her storage ring and carefully placed the Seven-Colored Crystal Stone inside.
Olexia's heart involuntarily tightened.
She knew the Empress's decisions were hard to change.
After an internal struggle, she finally gritted her teeth, disregarded her dignity as a senior deity, and quickly spoke.
“The Seven-Colored Crystal Stone contains powerful resentment. If it can be purified, it can not only refine the highest grade perfume ingredients but also be used to create lipsticks with stunning color and longevity.”
“It can even be incorporated into skincare products, providing superior beauty and anti-aging benefits.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Olexia nervously stared at Shang Wan Ning, afraid she would immediately refuse her request without hesitation.
After all, the Seven-Colored Crystal Stone was simply too precious for beauty-loving goddesses!!!
Most people probably wouldn't let go of it easily.
Shang Wan Ning listened, her expression composed.
She had initially thought the Seven-Colored Crystal Stone was just a high-grade energy ore.
Due to the differences in the planes' power systems, she didn't dare to directly absorb the energy within; thus, she had planned to take it back to the Research Institute for the researchers to study thoroughly.
But now, hearing Olexia's explanation, Shang Wan Ning's view of the Seven-Colored Crystal Stone underwent some new changes.
Her resolve seemed to be wavering slightly.
However, she didn't immediately state her position. Instead, she toyed with the small gift box and looked at Olexia with a half-smile.
“Since it has so many benefits, it wouldn't be bad for Me to keep it.”
Olexia almost panicked, the rising internal heat making her eyes ache faintly.
“The Empress is so beautiful, You shouldn't need it. I can exchange it with You for something of equal value. I even have rare divine medicine.”
Shang Wan Ning watched the Goddess of Desire with interest; at this moment, she looked like she had contracted 'red eye disease' (envy).
Her eyes were filled with longing for beauty.
Suddenly, Shang Wan Ning couldn't help but laugh out loud, the “puchi” sound breaking the tense atmosphere.
“Seeing as Your Excellency reminded Me, the crystal stone is yours.”
She said lightly.
With a flick of her wrist, she tossed the small gift box to Olexia.
Olexia caught the box as if it were a priceless treasure, and the joy on her face was evident.
“Thank you, Empress! I will surely repay you greatly in the future. Once I develop a divine-grade face mask, I will definitely save a portion for you.”
“No need. Give My portion to the little Loli. I am naturally beautiful and don't require external aids.”
Shang Wan Ning smiled and refused Olexia's kind offer.
Then, turning her head casually, she happened to see Chen Yu stretching her neck, staring intently at the small gift box, like a tiger or lion spotting a lamb.
Shang Wan Ning chuckled internally.
It was obvious without looking that this was a candidate for “beauty fanaticism”!
Sure enough, as soon as Chen Yu saw Shang Wan Ning looking at her, she immediately became excited and let out a “Hi.”
“Ahhh... Your Majesty, This servant loves You to death. Yu Yu wants to be the Prefecture City God of the Underworld for life.”
The White-Haired Loli suddenly leaped up and tightly hugged Shang Wan Ning's body.
Her legs clamped around Shang Wan Ning's waist like iron pincers.
She pouted her small mouth and fiercely kissed her face over a dozen times, producing a series of crisp “smack, smack, smack...” sounds.
Shang Wan Ning was completely unprepared for this sudden assault; her upper body instantly stiffened, and her hands subconsciously cupped Chen Yu's butt, trying to push her away.
However, Chen Yu was like clinging gum—impossible to shake off.
Gradually, a hint of disgust appeared on the Empress's face, and she desperately tilted her head back, trying to avoid Chen Yu's passionate kisses.
Tens of seconds passed, but Chen Yu's enthusiasm did not diminish due to Shang Wan Ning's resistance.
On the contrary, her mood became even more exuberant.
A faint blush appeared on her cheeks from excitement.
Her originally cute features became somewhat “ferocious,” “distorted,” and “sinister” due to excessive excitement.
Shang Wan Ning kept brainwashing herself internally—“This is My own little Loli, she can still be used after a wash, don't throw her away! Don't throw her away!”
However, when Chen Yu once again “smacked-washed” Shang Wan Ning's face, the germaphobe Shang finally reached her limit.
Her cheek was covered in Chen Yu's saliva.
It didn't smell, but it was extremely disgusting.
“Enough!” Shang Wan Ning roared.
She forcefully flung her hands, throwing Chen Yu away like a bundle.
The White-Haired Loli arced through the air, flying straight toward the altar.
Olexia put the gift box away, regarding Shang Wan Ning suddenly throwing Chen Yu out.
She truly hadn't expected it.
As good sisters who played cards together...
...how could she stand by and watch her die!!!
Immediately, she quickly teleported forward and barely managed to catch her.
“Your Majesty~ Hugs~ Kisses ^3^”
Chen Yu remained restless and struggled continuously in Olexia's arms, muttering things under her breath.
