The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 380: A terrible woman, with terrible magic.

"I said I understand you, not that I am as stupid as you. I am wise enough to know that mortals cannot fight against immortals. So if I took something from an immortal, I would negotiate to keep it.
