Whale Falls and Becomes a God

Chapter 23 The Blood Demon Emerges

After finishing her words, Empress Xiao's tone softened, and she said gently, quite moved:

"The surroundings are now under close surveillance and observation. We, with our limited numbers, can't change anything. We are simply trying to stop a chariot with a mantis arm, and we are courting our own destruction!"

Not only Empress Xiao lost her composure, but everyone else was also deeply shocked and moved.

Even Dugu Feng, who had always had a problem with Xiao Ying, was touched and looked at her carefully as if she had just met her...

The women thought that Xiao Ying had brought them here only to protect them from the chaotic and dangerous situation, not to give up hope of a comeback. Therefore, now, even at the risk of their lives, they resolutely decided to re-enter the game, just to gain a little more hope!
Although everyone knows that Xiao Ying mainly did it for Empress Xiao, they are also beneficiaries, and this is also a favor!

As the favorite concubines and noble ladies of the Sui Dynasty, if the Sui Dynasty falls, will their fate be good?
"Sister! A thousand-mile dam can be breached by a single ant hole!"

Xiao Ying retorted solemnly, and then quickly added:
"My sister and the other ladies' escape is the biggest loophole and variable. Now, with everyone commanding remotely, I will represent them in turning back. I will surely be able to unite many people and forces loyal to the ladies or the Great Sui Dynasty. Together, we will become a formidable force, enough to rival one or two of them. The outcome is still uncertain!"

"No!" Empress Xiao simply and forcefully rejected it.

"I need to go back! I need to be more confident in defending myself!"

Xiao Ying smiled bitterly, not knowing how to advise or explain, and said in a somewhat rogue manner.

After finishing her words, she shifted her thoughts and continued, "Don't forget the divine law bestowed by heaven. This law alone can teach the rebels a lesson, causing them to suffer heavy losses, lose their prestige, and cause enormous trouble. How great will the chain reaction be? At worst... if things are impossible, I can escape back. Don't you even have the confidence that I can escape back?"

"Do I have to go there in person?"

Empress Xiao's eyes lit up, but she was a little hesitant.

Everyone present was also cheered up and quite excited.

They had witnessed Xiao Ying's magical power, which was indeed against the will of heaven. This was also the real reason why they were able to arrive at Qiling Temple smoothly!

"How about... I give the treasure to the Empress for protection first, and personally take Young Master Xiao there? It's impossible, but I still have the confidence to bring Young Master Xiao back. I don't think those traitors would dare to force their way into the Qiling Temple and kill us!"

Xiao Ying nodded heavily. Empress Xiao hesitated, and Aunt Tianren Rong suddenly interrupted.

"..."

Including Xiao Ying and Empress Xiao, everyone had different expressions and were quite speechless.

I didn't expect that Aunt Rong was such a supreme being who was high above and detached from the world.

The meaning is very clear. They want to use the treasure of Qiling Temple to kidnap Qiling Temple and force it to protect Empress Xiao!
I have to admit, this is indeed an excellent method.

In this way, the safety of Xiao Ying and Empress Xiao is guaranteed!

"No! This treasure cannot be shown to anyone. We only need to know about it. If it is exposed and used for self-defense... it will completely offend Qiling Temple and even the entire Buddhist community!"

Empress Xiao thought about it and rejected Aunt Rong's opinion. After a pause, she nodded and continued:
"Let Aunt Rong accompany you! If things get out of hand, just reveal your identity as a Buddhist disciple. It will be enough to intimidate them for a while! In addition, don't underestimate Qiling Temple. I really don't believe that there are really celestial beings who dare to break into Qiling Temple and assassinate me! One person is useless, but if too many come, Qiling Temple will not sit idly by. I am the closest person to the Buddhist disciples, they will not and dare not ignore it. As for the others..."

"Who dares to come?!!!"

At the end of her speech, Empress Xiao sat upright with her body straight, her face firm and her eyes sharp, dominating the whole audience, like an almighty empress overlooking the world!

If a tiger doesn't show its might, do you really think it's a sick cat?!

"..."

Xiao He was quite surprised and shocked. He didn't expect that Empress Xiao, who had always been gentle and virtuous, had such a domineering and fierce side!
The others didn't react much. They were very clear about Empress Xiao's methods and strength and believed in her without a doubt.

From the abandoned daughter of the Xiao family, to the consort of the Prince of Jin, and finally the mother of the empire, Empress Xiao faced countless dangers, plots, schemes, swordplay, open assassinations, and other such schemes, yet she remained radiant and unscathed! "Alright! Let's do it!" Aunt Rong nodded in approval.

Xiao Ying exclaimed that this rare treasure was truly worth it, extremely worth it. Otherwise, would she want Aunt Rong to take the risk to protect it herself? Even Empress Xiao couldn't ask for it.

Excited, Xiao Ying couldn't wait to ask, "The sooner the better! Let's go now!"

"Except Aunt Lan, take everyone else with you!"

Empress Xiao was also a decisive person. She nodded in response and added, "No need to shirk! Not to mention that this place is safe, with Aunt Lan here, even if a celestial being came, they wouldn't be able to take us down in a short time!"

There is one thing that goes without saying, Aunt Lan is the chief steward, and many situations require Aunt Lan to be responsible for and handle, otherwise it would be difficult for Empress Xiao to remotely command and gather intelligence!
"Really! A few commanders are enough. More will be useless, delay the maneuver and lead to wasted sacrifices. They need to seize the time to train and cultivate in preparation for the follow-up!"

Xiao Ying shook his head and responded confidently, then reminded him, "Don't forget! We will contact various forces. For example, we will go to Dugu Mansion first. They are all loyal and righteous people. We need manpower. We can gather them together when the time comes!"

Empress Xiao frowned, still quite worried!
Xiao Ying thought about it and took the initiative to say, "Then let's bring two more teams of guards! It will be inconvenient to move if we have more!"

"Six teams of guards then! Plus 7749 envoys!"

Empress Xiao also knew that it would be inconvenient to take advantage of the situation with too many people, so she spoke without hesitation, as if if Xiao Ying said anything else, she would not let him go!

"Row!"

……

The night is as dark as ink and everything is quiet.

Xiao Ying brought Aunt Tianren Rong, Commander Le Han, three commanders Ling Qing, Gu Qin, and Bai Zhu, as well as seven deputy commanders, eleven attendants, servants, and servants, forty-nine envoys, and six teams of three hundred Queen's guards, a total of 373 people, and quietly came to the outer wall of Qiling Temple.

The patrolling monks naturally discovered this large group of people, but Xiao Ying had the abbot's token and there were no orders from the higher-ups, so they naturally would not intercept them or cause a commotion.

"Star Soul Possession!"

A dense and continuous majestic aura burst out, and Xiao Ying released all the star souls with the highest cultivation level. According to the needs and personal main cultivation, there were ten second-grade gods, thirty-seven third-grade extraordinary people, two hundred and twelve fourth-grade peerless people, and the remaining more than one hundred star souls were all fifth-grade.

In other words, of the 373 people on Xiao Ying's team, the lowest possessed star soul was of the fifth rank, with the majority being of the fourth rank. Adding to their original cultivation realm and combat power, they were an absolutely terrifying force!
"It takes only a short while to get familiar with the power!"

"Eleven priests will go ahead and secretly eliminate any spies and informants along the way, and try to conceal your whereabouts as much as possible!"

At Xiao Ying's command, the eleven priests, all of whom were possessed by extraordinary star souls, possessed all three systems, cooperated with each other and disappeared into the night.

"Is this a divine method bestowed by heaven? It's like a spirit possessing someone, not a divine cultivation enhancement..."

The others had already experienced it and quickly became familiar with it. Aunt Tianren Rong was experiencing it for the first time, and she felt fresh and curious, but she hit the nail on the head.

Unfortunately, Xiao Ying does not have the Celestial Star Soul. Although he can bless Aunt Rong, it is not great, only about 30%!

"With such a lineup, your Majesty can rest assured. Young Master Xiao will definitely be fine!"

Empress Xiao and others couldn't help but secretly follow them to the temple. Lady Xuanhua was shocked but also trusted and comforted them.

"Ok!"

The night breeze was cool, yet a little hot. Looking out at the dazzling Jiangdu from afar, I felt both relieved and worried...
