After Crossing Over, I Marked the Empress

A thunderbolt tore through the sky.

Shen Han awoke from a haze of confusion.

The young woman clutched her chest, breathing rapidly. Upon realizing her vital signs were still present, she instinctively turned her palm to reach for the gun at her waist.

Her waist was empty.

Moreover, her body, which had been on the brink of shattering, had undergone significant changes.

Shen Han lowered her eyelashes, carefully examining her current state.

A pair of clear black and white eyes gradually filled with an inexplicable strangeness.

There were no horrifying wounds on her body, and her palms were no longer stained with indelible blood.

“Have I been reborn? Or have I traveled through time?”

Shen Han adapted quickly. After confirming that everything she saw wasn’t an illusion, she immediately stood up from her reclined position and even jumped on the spot a couple of times.

“My perception has become stronger, and all my bodily functions have improved!”

“It seems heaven still favors me, huh? Has it given me a rebuilt body so I can exact my revenge with ease?”

The young woman’s voice, filled with post-calamity joy, echoed through the empty forest.

Suddenly, a crimson flame rose from the young woman’s fair palm, nearly frightening her out of her wits.

“Holy shit!” Shen Han immediately clenched her fist, using the method of cutting off air to extinguish the spontaneous combustion in her palm.

But soon, she discovered that the situation had once again surpassed her understanding.

When she opened her palm again, the crimson flame hadn’t disappeared!

The small flame flickered gently, like a lychee that had fallen into her palm.

“What is this thing? Is this some kind of high-level martial arts cultivation world?”

Shen Han shook her palm while looking around at the surroundings devoid of any modern air.

Just then, she suddenly caught a whiff of an extremely faint fragrance.

The scent was elusive, somewhat like cold plum blossoms defiantly blooming in the face of winter, clear, elegant, and uniquely charming.

Shen Han’s spirits immediately lifted!

She didn’t know where the fragrance she smelled originated from.

But she had a vague feeling that if she followed the direction of that faint scent, she would find answers.

At the thought of meeting the first person in this strange world, her heart began to race uncontrollably.

Shen Han moved nimbly, the subtle plum fragrance constantly entering her nostrils, guiding her direction while also causing her blood to surge throughout her body.

The changes in her body after crossing over had filled every inch of her muscles with strength.

Shen Han bounded through the thorn-covered dense forest like an agile wolf.

…

Gu Junwan’s current situation was not good.

Days of high-intensity fleeing had left her body extremely fatigued.

With each step forward, her slender calves trembled under the unbearable strain.

But compared to the physical exhaustion, the discomfort arising in other parts of her body made her even more nervous.

Gu Junwan was the Empress of the Free Federation on this planet, and also a top-tier Omega.

The original purpose of establishing the Free Federation was to break the pattern of Alpha superiority and Omega inferiority, creating a well-ordered homeland where everyone could be respected and live in peace.

The Gu family had always done well in this regard, and by the time it was passed down to Gu Junwan, the Free Federation had already experienced three generations of empresses.

However, not long ago, she was betrayed by someone she trusted.

Using her superior analytical skills, she had escaped from the encirclement, only to be driven into this dense forest on the border of the federation by her pursuers.

Most troublingly, her heat seemed to be coming early.

Sensing the changes in her body, Gu Junwan halted her steps, found a relatively clean flat stone to sit on, and without hesitation took out a suppressant patch from her backpack.

Tilting her head to lift the black hair hanging around her neck, she gently pressed the suppressant patch onto the back of her neck.

The backpack was hastily grabbed, containing scattered food items and a small quantity of high-quality medicinal patches and gauze.

Even in the desolate forest, the exposure of Omega pheromones was still dangerous and deadly.

Moreover, Gu Junwan was a top-tier Omega, and there were pursuers behind her.

The brief rest allowed this fallen empress to regain some strength.

She rubbed her swollen ankle, injured from the journey, and began to replay in her mind the circumstances when this calamity first appeared.

It was at this moment that Shen Han, carrying a body full of rolling heat mist, sprang out from the forest, landing steadily on the grassland about three meters away from Gu Junwan.

The entire world seemed to fall silent at this instant.

The air that had been flowing also seemed to stagnate.

Gu Junwan slowly stood up, her golden eyes fixed on the strange alpha who had suddenly appeared, filled with a layer of cold killing intent.

Shen Han, however, was quite pleased.

She blinked her clear black and white eyes, observing the stunningly beautiful young woman not far away, her heart pounding against her chest.

To be honest, this was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen since she could remember.

Let alone the fact that she was already a lesbian before crossing over, even if she had been as straight as an arrow, it would have been impossible to remain calm.

The young woman with golden phoenix eyes had a slender waist and long legs. Her slightly curled black hair cascaded over her shoulders, exuding an intoxicating laziness.

The woman’s skin was whiter than moonlight, her features as exquisite as a work of art, appearing extremely cold and beautiful under her cool demeanor.

Shen Han, inhaling the faint plum fragrance in the air, flashed a very professional smile at the young woman not far away: “Hello, are you here for camping? Or do you live nearby?”

Shen Han felt that this proactive greeting was appropriate and flawless.

As long as the other party could open her mouth to answer, she would be able to gather a lot of information from her words.

Unexpectedly, the cold beauty didn’t even spare her an extra glance, simply shouldered her backpack and turned to leave.

Shen Han: “???” Was my way of greeting incorrect?

If this had happened before she crossed over, she definitely wouldn’t have pursued with a thick skin.

But now it was different. She had been running through the forest for a while and had only seen this cold beauty.

If nothing else, she at least needed to figure out the general situation of this world.

Shen Han caught up very easily, running about a meter to the side of the cold beauty.

“You don’t need to be afraid, I’m not a bad person. I came here because I got lost.”

“You look like you’re not feeling well. Why don’t you stop running and sit down? We can chat a bit?”

Although Shen Han had already controlled her voice to be very gentle.

To Gu Junwan’s ears, it still sounded like hellish demon music, making her uneasy.

Her body was indeed very uncomfortable, even somewhat terrible.

But no matter what, she couldn’t stop, and she certainly couldn’t be caught by that dangerous alpha!

That alpha was agile and nimble.

Those thorny bushes she couldn’t cross, those muddy swamps she couldn’t go around, all seemed to pose no obstacle to her at all.

For Gu Junwan, who often dealt with military warriors, she could deduce without needing any other characteristics.

The other party was a top-tier alpha!

And for her, this was nothing short of a nightmare.

Seeing that the cold beauty was starting to stumble, Shen Han felt a bit guilty.

She didn’t know what to say to make the other party lower her guard.

After much thought, she finally spoke: “Do you smell that faint scent of cold plum blossoms?”

“It’s strange, isn’t it? How can there be plum fragrance in this hot weather?”

At this point, Shen Han paused and threw out what she really wanted to ask.

“Could it be that the scent is coming from you?”

Hearing this, Gu Junwan’s ankle twisted, and her slender calf made a crisp ‘crack’ sound.

Her breathing became uncontrollably erratic, and her body lost balance, falling forward.

The cold beauty’s sudden injury and fall made Shen Han’s pupils contract.

So much so that she didn’t have the chance to say her next line, ‘What brand of perfume did you buy?’

She darted diagonally like a cheetah, steadily supporting the cold beauty’s arm with a skillful force.

The arm that fell into her palm was very slender, and the weight was very light.

Shen Han felt that she could probably break it with just a little force.

‘So, if your body is weak, you shouldn’t be running around in the jungle like this.’

‘But, the cold plum fragrance on her body really smells good!’

Before Shen Han’s thoughts could continue.

The cold beauty who had just stabilized suddenly broke free and turned sideways, her slender arm sweeping across, a cold glint flashing directly before her eyes.

Shen Han didn’t know why she could see so clearly, but what the other party was stabbing at her with was a small surgical knife.

Her five senses and sixth sense after crossing over seemed to have increased several times!

With no time to think further, she quickly dodged this potentially fatal strike.

She grasped that fragile and delicate wrist, seizing the small surgical knife into her own hand.

“I say, you don’t have to go this far, right?”

“Accidental injury, you’ll still be held legally responsible!”

Gu Junwan’s wrist was restrained, her body forced closer to the other party.

A fresh, crisp scent of snow cedar entered her nostrils, flowing through her rapidly surging blood into her limbs and body.

That scent was like swirling mist, stirring the softest chambers of Gu Junwan’s heart.

The air suddenly became thin and scorching.

She stood there, swaying unsteadily.

Shen Han originally wanted to scare the other party a bit more, but seeing that the cold beauty before her didn’t seem quite right, she quickly fell silent.

Helping the other party sit down, Shen Han then raised her hand to press on the cold beauty’s philtrum.

Her fingertips brushed across the other’s pale cheek, and wherever they touched, a flower of blush bloomed.

“Why are you sweating so much?”

“Do you have any medicine in your backpack?”

“How about I make a call for you, let your family or friends come pick you up.”

“…”

Gu Junwan could no longer clearly remember what else the alpha behind her said.

Fatigue like a tidal wave completely engulfed her, she felt like a lonely boat in the vast sea waves, at risk of capsizing at any moment.

She bit her tongue, trying to force herself to stay awake.

But that snow cedar scent enveloping her made her mind relax, feeling drowsy.

Great danger and dependence simultaneously devoured the consciousness of this Omega empress.

She slightly closed her eyes, falling into that all-encompassing warm snow cedar, and sank into deep sleep.
