With the opening of the heaven and earth altar, the evil qi of death, blood qi, and death qi …… that permeated the Kunlun Realm gradually receded, and peace and tranquility were soon restored again.
For the vast majority of living beings, they just thought that a heaven and earth anomaly had occurred, and they simply didn’t know what exactly had happened.
Only those powerful people standing at the very top detected the aura of danger.
As Wine Crazy Man and Ancient Songzi watched the blood qi in the sky above their heads, gradually dissipating, they both exhaled a long breath, only to feel their bodies become relaxed.
Just now, when the blood aura enveloped the heavens and earth, even with the cultivation level of the two of them, they both felt their Saint Souls trembling, that aura, quite terrifying.
Gu Songzi glanced towards Kong Lanyou who was standing at the peak, and with a long leap, he also reached the peak, bowed and saluted, and then asked, “Sacred Ancestor, your cultivation far exceeds that of the two of us, can you know what exactly happened just now?”
Kong Lanyou carried her hands behind her back, her white hair flying in the wind, and her pair of eyes stared at the sky dome, revealing a sullen expression. She said, “A great upheaval is about to come, no living being in the Kunlun Realm will be spared.”
Gu Songzi revealed a puzzled expression and said, “Empress Chi Yao has become a god, shaking the world with her might and being invincible in the world, who would dare to oppose her? Ancestral Dragon Mountain, Nine Dawn Palace, or those beast emperors in the four directions of the sea? Do they have the guts to create a great upheaval?”
Kong Lanyou gently shook his head, and suddenly, both eyebrows slightly raised, detecting a person’s aura, and a strange fluctuation flashed through his eyes.
“The two of you take care of Zhang Ruochen, this Saint will return soon.”
Kong Lan You’s figure moved and disappeared into the peak.
In the next moment, Kong Lanyou had already reached eight thousand li away, landing on the bank of an ancient river and reassembling her figure. With her eyes, she stared ahead.
Only to see that Empress Chi Yao had her hands behind her back, standing at the edge of the water, looking at the water mist on the surface of the river.
Beside Empress Chi Yao, there were four small beasts, as if they were four pets, lying on the ground. A form like a dragon, a white cat with nine tails, a fish with wings, and a palm-sized snapping turtle.
Kong Lanyou’s gaze, just glancing towards the four small beasts, his face changed violently.
Those were not four pets, but the masters of the Barbarian Desolate Mysterious Realm and among the four directions of the sea, it did not occur to them that with their terrifying cultivation, they would end up in such a state.
Kong Lan You’s gaze, as it locked onto Chi Yao, his eyes became incomparably sunken and cold as he said, ”Chi Yao, why did you injure him over and over again? After injuring him, why did you still show up?”
Empress Chi Yao’s expression was indifferent as she turned her back to Kong Lan You and said, “You actually talk about injuries with this Emperor, do you understand what an injury is? This emperor will ask you a question, letting you kill him, or letting him kill you, which one makes you more hurt?”
Kong Lan You’s eyes stared, actually unable to answer her.
Because, when it really came to being unable to choose, she would rather die herself than hurt a single finger of Zhang Ruochen.
Chi Yao’s gaze carried a few indescribable emotions as she said, “My eight hundred years is a whole eight hundred years, and every day passes like a year. His eight hundred years is just a snap of a finger. You actually talk to me about hurt …… Are you worthy?”
Kong Lan You said, “But, you don’t even dare to see him, what are you afraid of?”
Chi Yao’s closed eyes did not speak.
Kong Lan You said, “What are you doing? Back then, what were you plotting? Cousin is much smarter than me, soon he will be able to guess and recognise it, by then, should he kill you or not? Why do you torture him so?”
“Death, to me, is a relief and a mercy, and I have been waiting for that day. It is living that is a form of cruelty and torture. If that day really comes, I will definitely give him a reason why he must kill me, and won’t make things difficult for him. The prerequisite is that he has to have the ability to kill me, or else he’s an unmitigated waste.”
Chi Yao added, “In the past, this Emperor didn’t kill you because at that time, you were also just a waste, unworthy of this Emperor’s hand. Nowadays, you have crossed over into the Great Saint realm and can be crowned as an emperor, and you are becoming a greater and greater threat to the First Central Empire that I have managed to build up with great difficulty, so I can no longer keep you.”
“You want to kill me?”Kong Lan You said.
On the ground, the four little beasts all raised their heads as well and glanced towards Kong Lanyou, revealing a look of pity.
Chi Yao said, “Right now, there are only two paths in front of you. The first path, come with me and fight together for a future where you don’t know the outcome. The second path, I’ll kill you, sooner or later you’re going to die anyway, and by dying at my hands, you can at least die a decent death.”
Kong Lanyou didn’t know exactly what Chi Yao was doing, but he could guess some of it.
In the end, Kong Lan You chose to leave with Chi Yao, and before he left, he didn’t go back to see Zhang Ruochen, terrified that if he saw Zhang Ruochen’s lonely and sad appearance, he would never be able to leave again.
One year later.
For a whole year, the Kunlun Realm regained its peace and prosperity.
The Immortal Blood Race in the Northern Domain had been killed by the imperial army and completely wiped out, with only a few leaky fish remaining, but they were no longer able to become a climate.
The Deadly Zen Cult in the southern region has withdrawn to the outer domain, and the Deadly Zen Ancestor has personally sent out a decree that as long as the Queen is on the throne for one day, the Deadly Zen Cult will never set foot on Kunlun Realm again.
The Fengdu Ghost City in the Eastern Domain was overrun, and over 90% of the undead ghosts and demons were beaten to death.
The Barbarian Beasts of the Barbarian Secret Realm and the Four Directions Water Tribe Barbarian Beasts, all the major races, all swore to submit to the First Central Empire.
This was an unprecedented heyday, with all races coming to the court and the world returning to their hearts.
Those who were once geniuses had all grown up and become unique overlords.
Xue Wuyi became the city lord of Ten Thousand Fragrant City, Monk Lidi became the dao master of the Brahma Heavenly Dao, Ji Huan Huan was ordained as the Heavenly King, Ouyang Huan became the vice sect master of the Demon Sect, and Years of Cold became the sect master of the Zither Sect. ……
Everyone was writing their own legends, cultivating hard, and making themselves continue to metamorphose and become even stronger.
However, Zhang Ruochen, the Time and Space Successor who had once claimed to be invincible among his peers, had disappeared for an entire year, never appearing in the Kunlun Realm again, and countless people thought that he had died.
Gradually, the people forgot about him and began to talk about a new legend.
“The Southern Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root Sycamore Divine Tree has revived and is making up for the missing rules of heaven and earth in the Kunlun Realm, and it’s said that many cultivators are rushing to join them.”
“Joking aside, that’s the spiritual root of heaven and earth, a divine tree, following him and cultivating with him has endless benefits. It is said that even many great figures in the imperial court are sending their cultivation resources over in a steady stream, hoping to befriend him. With talents and strengths like yours, rushing to defect, it is expected that no one else will take you.”
……
Of all the ancient clans in the Kunlun Realm, there was no clan more powerful than the Fire Clan.
The Fire Clan had been guarding the Sycamore Divine Tree, incomparably mysterious and very low-profile, almost making people think that they had been extinguished. However, with the recovery of the Sycamore Divine Tree, the Fire Clan once again appeared in everyone’s vision.
Their power was also gradually revealed.
The Fire Nation cultivators led by the Sycamore God Tree broke down Fengdu Ghost City and suppressed the city’s lord, the “Divine Beginning Ghost King”, and destroyed 90% of the undead ghosts that had plagued the Eastern Region, with only a small portion of them escaping.
The Fire Nation became famous in one battle and shook the world.
With this battle, the Wutong Divine Tree Autumn Rain also became a world-famous hero, and was praised by cultivators all over the world.
On this day, Qiu Yu and the four elders of the Fire Nation arrived at the Devil Sect’s main altar, Peakless Mountain, and were personally received by the Devil Sect Master.
After the news was spread, it stirred up the entire Moon Worshipping Demon Sect, with countless cultivators wanting to catch a glimpse of Autumn Rain’s true appearance, and also discussing the purpose of Autumn Rain’s visit to Peakless Mountain.
“Autumn Rain was once a strong person ranked number one on the Half-Saint Ranking, even Grandmaster Standing Ground and Snowless Night could only be ranked second and fourth.”
“It is said that Autumn Rain’s face is incomparably handsome, not below Xue Wuyi, both being first-class beautiful men.”
“Since Autumn Rain is the Sycamore Divine Tree, which is the son of a god, he will more than likely be able to cross over into the God Realm in the future as well. If anyone can obtain his favour, they will definitely soar in the future.”
In the evening, news spread out that Qiu Yu had actually come to Peakless Mountain to propose, hoping that the Demon Sect Master would be able to betroth the Holy Maiden, Mu Lingshi, to him as his daoist mate.
After this piece of news spread out, it naturally attracted the jealousy of countless talented young girls.
“Mu Lingshi’s luck is also too good to be adored by Prince Qiu Yu, in the future, I’m afraid that the Vice Sect Master will have to respect her three times.”
“It’s also a good thing for the Divine Sect to be able to join forces with Prince Qiu Yu, we’ll probably be able to gain a lot of benefits as well.”
“The Little Holy Maiden’s Ice Phoenix Body has already become a great success, and she is a perfect match for Prince Qiu Yu.”
……
After the marriage was finalised, a large group of cultivators from the Fire Clan and the Moon Worshipping Demon Sect were marching towards Mu Lingshi’s residence, ready to tell her about this happy event.
Autumn Rain was dressed in a yellow fir, his figure was erect, indeed handsome and unrestrained, with a transcendent aura, wherever he passed by, he attracted the attention and astonishment of countless female cultivators.
Suddenly, Qiu Yu stopped his steps, pondered a little, and said, ”Only after the marriage is finalised do we go and inform her. Miss Mu, will definitely be very angry, we have to prepare a gift to make amends first.”
Ouyang Huan, Vice Lord of the Demon Sect, laughed softly, “Prince Qiu Yu once saved Lingxi’s life, you two already share a deep bond, if Lingxi hears about this, she will surely be overjoyed, how could she possibly be angry? Uncle Yun, right?”
Hearing this “Uncle Yun”, Yun Zheng’s heart was overjoyed.
Before this, with Yun Zheng’s status in the sect, how could Ouyang Huan call him Uncle Yun?
But now it was different, Mu Lingshi was about to marry Qiu Yu, and as Mu Lingshi’s father, Yun Zheng’s status had naturally changed drastically from before.
Even the Vice Sect Master addressed him as Uncle Yun, and the entire Divine Sect cultivators, I’m afraid that they would all have to be respectful to him in the future.
Yun Zheng let out a smile, ”For my little daughter to be able to obtain the favour of Prince Qiu Yu, it would have been her blessing to have cultivated in her ten lives. But …… the character of the youngest daughter, from childhood is very rebellious, if in the future to offend the autumn rain Prince, Prince should be taught a lesson or have to be taught, she that kind of character should have been changed a long time ago.”
