After returning home, Shen Tang estimated that the Rebound Talisman should have run its course, and asked the system, "Did that annoying thing die?"
The system replied, [No.]
Shen Tang’s face darkened, "Wasn’t her soul supposed to be destroyed? How is she still alive?"
This time, even the system, rarely cold and stern, said solemnly, [Host, I have good news and bad news for you. The good news is that Shen Qingli did lose one life because of you, but the bad news is, through this soul rebound, I’ve detected new information: Shen Qingli has a Nine Lives Cat Life Chart!]
Shen Tang flipped off the bed and paced back and forth anxiously, "What? Are you saying that damn heroine has nine lives?"
[Not exactly, she can store up to nine lives.] The system explained, [For every S-level male Shen Qingli successfully makes fall deeply in love with her, she gains a life. She managed to capture the hearts of two S-level males, Zaxxis and Yun Han, thus, including her original life, she has three lives. Now that you’ve taken one, she has two left.]
Shen Tang was so furious she wanted to pinch the bridge of her nose. This damn heroine was like an unkillable cockroach!
Which means, even if sentenced to death, Shen Qingli truly wouldn’t die. She could seize the chance to escape on the way to the crematorium or when thrown into the wilderness!
But fortunately, Shen Tang learned of Shen Qingli’s secret this time. Next time she catches her, she must be killed several times, leaving no chance for her to escape!
Time swiftly passed, and after intense preparations, tomorrow was the coronation ceremony for the new King, to be held in the grand hall of the Imperial City.
The empire, morose after the war, was reignited with passion by this ceremony. The people waited with eager anticipation, and Kongdu City was already enveloped in joyful celebration, with lights and decor everywhere, red carpets rolled out, and the melodies of festive music and praises echoing in every corner of the streets.
The night before the ceremony was destined to be a sleepless one.
The most expecting and nervous of all were the protagonists.
The monarch’s coronation attire was crafted by the empire’s most authoritative design team, with several versions designed before finalizing a majestic purple-gold robe that exuded a kingly temperament.
These days, Xue Yinzhou often ran back and forth to oversee the making of the coronation robe, ensuring its completion before the coronation ceremony.
It is said that the embroidery on the robe was stitched by Xue Yinzhou himself, painstakingly crafted over several days and nights. Snake Clan Beastmen are adept at making clothes for their partners, though the original owner never cared for it. Shen Tang never thought to have Xue Yinzhou play the embroidery man either, as that would be a waste of talent, leaving his skill unused until now.
Thankfully, it was finally put to good use this day.
At the first sight of the finished robe, Shen Tang was deeply enchanted!
The main fabric of the robe was a soft deep purple satin adorned with light gold thread embroidery, incorporating the empire’s territories and beast totems into its intricate pattern design. The dress was studded with pearls, diamonds, and amethysts, the collar and cuffs edged with a delicate gold trim, a simple gold waistband cinching the waist perfectly. The crafting was exquisite, awe-inspiring, stately, elegant, and beautifully majestic, beyond words!
Shen Tang gently touched the luxurious garment on the tray, thrilled beyond measure, almost unable to bear wearing it.
Seeing the light in her eyes, Xue Yinzhou smiled, "How is the dress? Do you like it?"
"It’s incredible! I love it! Thank you, Yinzhou!" Shen Tang excitedly hugged him, planting a big kiss.
Not anticipating such a bold and enthusiastic female, Xue Yinzhou’s jade-white handsome face tinted with a hint of embarrassment, he gently embraced her waist, uncommonly tender, "As long as you like it. The dress is tailored to your body measurements, it should fit well. But it’s best if you try it on first."
The picky Mermaid Prince Jia Lan, also showed rarity approval, harsh words giving way to praise, "This robe is indeed excellent, among those I’ve seen, it could take the crown."
That counts as an extremely high compliment!
Lu Xiao nodded, "Mm, this gown suits the Female Master very well."
Shen Li also stepped forward to touch the garment, soft in texture and excellently embroidered, smiled, "With Xiao Tang’er wearing this dress, you are sure to stun the audience. I can imagine tomorrow’s coronation ceremony will certainly be marked in history, a significant entry of grand color and stroke."
