Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

This was Tie Butian’s first time ever revealing her female appearance in front of others in her whole life. She hadn’t even adjusted to the feeling yet when she heard what Chu Yang said. Her whole face turned red and she snapped furiously, “Nothing decent comes out of a filthy mouth!”

“We’ll discuss whether anything decent can come out of a filthy mouth later.” Chu Yang straightened his back and said, “Now that I’ve expressed my gratitude, we can start settling our scores.”

A startled Tie Butian asked, “Scores? What scores?”

Chu Yang retorted fiercely, “Hmph! Back then when you did that, it was intimately related to me yet you kept it a secret from me. My virtue has been destroyed in your hands; this is the first issue! When you got pregnant, even though I was the… you know… the one who got you pregnant, you didn’t tell me either; this is the second score! After you gave birth, the child is also mine… yet you also didn’t inform me; this is the third score! And now that the child has grown up, to think that you have no plans to let him return to his roots and be acknowledged by his ancestors; this is the fourth score!”

His words made Tie Butian abashed and embarrassed and so enraged that she couldn’t think straight.

What kind of bullsh*t reasoning is that?

This fellow actually dares to say something like his virtue being destroyed in my hands… His extent of shamelessness is enough to make people marvel at him.

Chu Yang went on, “Multiple offenses shall be punished at the same time! And now, we’ll follow house rules and mete out punishment!”

“House rules?” Tie Butian was stunned. She was the master of the world; this fellow actually wanted to punish her based on house rules?

What house rules?

Before she knew it, the fellow opposite had already rushed toward her. Before she could even react, she was held by the waist in his arms. The world spun and the next thing she knew, she was laying facedown on top of his thighs. With a wave of his right hand, a crisp and clear ‘smack!’ resounded within the room!

Tie Butian cried out, her almond eyes widening in shock. Her supple bottom had been given a tight smack by Chu Yang!

Chu Yang rebuked her, “Showing such contempt for rules and not observing the moral standards of women; if I don’t punish you, aren’t you going to create even more trouble in the future?”

Smack!

The Emperor’s dignified bottom suffered yet another smack!

Tie Butian let out another cry. While it didn’t actually hurt, being smacked on her bottom in such a position was no doubt a first in her entire life!

Not to mention that Tie Butian was the ruler of a generation; who would dare to hit her bottom usually?

Yet right now, not only was she being hit, she was even being hit in such a shameful manner after she had reverted to her true looks… Tie Butian couldn’t accept it at all. In a fit of extreme rage, she yelled, “Let me down!”

However, Chu Yang’s hand holding her down was like a heavy mountain; there was no room for her to struggle at all. Meanwhile, his right hand smacked her bottom continuously without mercy!

Tie Butian’s face was completely red, even to the tips of her ears!

As she listened to the smacking sounds and took in the pain, Tie Butian was initially in a fit of mad rage. Then, it turned into fury and struggling before her struggling gradually became softer and softer. However, her face was turning redder and redder; she bit on her lips and refused to make a single sound.

Chu Yang was also in a fit of anger, so he did use some force in the first few smacks. However, as time passed, he retracted his force. Instead, he was starting to enjoy it somewhat, though he still adopted a fierce demeanor. “Do you admit your mistakes?!”

Tie Butian gritted her teeth, refusing to speak.

“Smack!”

“Do you admit them?”

She remained silent as ever.

“Smack!”

…

As Chu Yang continued to take his time to smack her bottom, a strange feeling suddenly welled up in his heart. His emotions were starting to become more and more worked up.

“Do you admit them or not!” Chu Yang’s lips quirked upwards.

“Stop… Stop hitting me… I, I, I… I admit my mistakes…” After a string of more than ten smacks, Tie Butian finally admitted defeat.

Not because of severe torture but because Chu Yang hadn’t used any force at all in the latter few smacks. He was practically stroking her bottom…

Strictly speaking, this was the first time Tie Butian had ever come into such close contact with a man. Previously, in the mountains of the Beyond the Heavens Sect, even though she had… but she had been in utter panic and inner turmoil that time, so she couldn’t remember anything at all. Even if she did, she could only remember pain and worry… It was a memory which she couldn’t bear to look back on.

This time, however, she was truly being held in a man’s embrace. For a moment there, her entire body was weak and she had no strength in her.

“You admit your mistakes?” Chu Yang was delighted but he gave her bottom one last smack anyway. “What mistakes did you commit?”

Tie Butian was so embarrassed that she was close to breaking down. She was also close to dying from infuriation.

Has this fellow had enough yet!

“Let me down first. I’ll tell you after that.”

She was already panting heavily.

Unexpectedly, what answered her was yet another smack. “No! You’re going to say it like this!”

Tie Butian seriously wanted to pass out. Resigned to her fate, she lowered her voice and begged submissively, “Brother Chu…”

“Hmm?!” Chu Yang snorted coldly.

“Chu Yang…” Tie Butian hurriedly corrected herself and begged, “Chu Yang… You, you you you… Can’t you leave me some dignity?”

“Smack!” His response was, of course, another smack. Chu Yang’s spirits were getting increasingly high and he didn’t let up, especially when he was in the right of reason. “You’ve already given me a son. What dignity do you speak of in front of me… You really deserve to be punished!”

But as Chu Yang continued to smack her bottom, some kind of emotion inside him was slowly changing. The more he smacked her, the more he realized that she felt really nice to the touch. Soft, supple, pert… Chu Yang, a virgin who had already been thirsty for years, suddenly felt his blood surging and boiling.

Strictly speaking, Chu Yang and Tie Butian were the same; both of them were absolute beginners.

The only difference was that although Tie Butian’s memories of what had happened last time were somewhat dreadful, she could still remember some of it after all. However, Chu Yang had lost his virginity under circumstances where he was completely out of it.

Now that he knew he had actually missed out on such an… such an… important matter, how would Chu Yang be willing to leave the matter at that!

This was practically a huge insult and unbelievable humiliation to a man! And now, the culprit was right in front of him!

Chu Yang’s hand went along Tie Butian’s neckline and started to slip within…

Tie Butian’s entire body jerked. She didn’t know where she had gotten the strength from but she actually managed to get out of his hold. Her sudden movement was too forceful and she almost landed on her bottom on the ground.

The moment Chu Yang raised his head and took a look, he couldn’t help but swallow.

The face of the beauty in front of him was completely flushed red, her hair was in disorder and even the crown atop her head was out of place. Silky locks of hair laid in disarray and her pert chest was rising up and down in accordance with her ragged breathing…

“So beautiful,” murmured Chu Yang.

Tie Butian’s beauty was different from Wu Qianqian’s. It was also different from Mo Qingwu’s, and even more different from Zi Xieqing’s.

Hers was a kind of refined, elegant and majestic beauty. She had a distinguished air of elegance and her charm and talent were matchless! Every little expression she made was filled with a kind of refined dignity that didn’t bear violation!

As though a mere glance alone was blasphemy.

However, in Chu Yang’s eyes, such beauty instead groundlessly provoked the desire and pleasure in conquering her instead. Because it was exactly this breathtaking beauty who looked like a goddess that had given birth to his son!

What other reservations did he have?

Chu Yang pounced on her like a hungry wolf.

“Wait!” shouted Tie Butian as she took a couple of steps back. With a resolute expression, she suddenly flipped her wrist and produced a dagger and held it against her throat. “You… If you force yourself on me, I’ll kill myself in front of you!”

Chu Yang was stunned by this! Chu Yang was dumbfounded.

He suddenly felt a little faint.

What is this supposed to be now?

We even have a son already. Why is she…

Even though he could easily snatch the dagger away from Tie Butian without hurting her at all, he still chose to take a couple of steps back nevertheless.

Tie Butian held on to the dagger, relief flashing in her eyes, and she started to pant and gasp for air.

Only after a long while did her breathing finally calm and stabilize.

Then, she got to her feet and neatened her robes, before she slowly walked behind the study table. “Sit!”

The reddish hue on her face remained but her voice was calm and majestic. It actually brook no resistance. Although her eyes remained somewhat dazed, they had already regained their original spark and intelligence.

“Take a seat. Let’s talk,” said Tie Butian calmly.

Somewhat confused, Chu Yang took a seat and asked carefully, “You… What’s wrong? Talk… Talk about what?”

There was a hint of a smile on Tie Butian’s face. She replied, “Today, we shall neither talk about state affairs nor about the people. Let’s just talk about you and me.”

“You and me?” asked Chu Yang with a frown.

“Yes, you and me.” Tie Butian gave him a calm and composed smile. “Chu Yang, since I was young, I have encountered great tragedies. All of my kin have left this world and I had to pretend to be a man and become the crown prince despite being a woman. This has continued all the way till now. You are aware of all the reasons within and I will not speak further about that.”

Chu Yang had a wry smile on his face. Indeed, after what happened today, everything that he didn’t understand about the Iron Cloud Empire in the past, as well as Tie Shicheng’s various actions had all been given a rational explanation. If he still didn’t get it, he’d be a real idiot.

“Just as you know, I love you! I love you with all my heart!” Tie Butian’s dignified and pretty eyes gazed upon Chu Yang. When it came to her feelings, the Emperor didn’t possess any of the bashfulness that most women had. She spoke candidly and without reservations, “Perhaps you’re not aware of the reason why I had fallen in love with you but I shall tell you now! Do you know? The period when you had come to Iron Cloud was the most trying times of the whole of Iron Cloud!”

“There was no hope for Iron Cloud at all back then! Even Royal Uncle Tie Longcheng had said… that Iron Cloud would inevitably become part of Diwu Qingrou’s exploits. What we had to do was to delay this for as long as possible and extend this period for as long as we could.”

“At that time, I struggled every day and I was in absolute despair every day. I went without sleep for days; even if I managed to fall asleep, I would be plagued by nightmares and wake up with a start right away. But so many people were watching me; if I were to break down, Iron Cloud would be finished, even its last hope gone. So I could only force myself to remain calm and act like everything was going according to plan; that I had everything under control.”

“On the surface, I looked extraordinarily calm and collected but nobody knew the fear and helplessness I had in my heart, nor could anybody understand. The entirety of the Iron Cloud Empire, the heavy burden of hundreds of millions of people, the hopes and wishes of all the generations of ancestors were all pressing down on me, a weak and powerless girl!”

Tears fell down Tie Butian’s cheeks. “But in the whole of Iron Cloud, from court officials to the common people to merchants and even among beggars and prostitutes were innumerous spies of Diwu Qingrou’s! I was well aware of it but I neither had the strength nor any sort of solution to deal with it. In the south was Diwu Qingrou’s million-men strong army eyeing us ravenously and the Golden Horse Riders Department keeping vigil and on standby to attack us at any given moment; in the north was the Wolf Tribe ready to come down south anytime. The internal structure of Iron Cloud was in a complete mess and Father was on his deathbed…”

“You have no idea how much pressure I was under!” Tie Butian lamented miserably, “At that time, the thought of ending my life crossed my mind countless times! So that I could end this torture! Did you know that?”

“Even though I’m the crown prince and the only heir to the Iron Cloud Empire, I am still a woman! I need someone I could depend on but no one was there for me at that time. Instead, I had to become everyone’s support!”

“Do you know that I was about to die at that time? Do you?!” Tie Butian suddenly screamed at him, her voice hoarse. As she screamed, tears started to well up and trickle down her cheeks.
