Peerless Empress: One Woman, One Sword, Slaying Through Myriad Realms

Even with the Black Wind Vulture's speed, it took them two days to reach the outskirts of Wanglong Ancient City. From the air, Ye Wuxi could see that the nine Martial Kings were still surrounding the nine directions of the desert, while the black hole underground had disappeared.

"Human sacrifices—that's how cruel the world of martial arts is."

Ye Wuxi couldn't help but sigh. No one would remind them that those martial artists who couldn't resist the temptation to go in might not even know until their deaths that they were just offering up nourishment for the Death Gate.

The Black Wind Vulture hovered in mid-air, and an old man and an old woman stepped towards them. The two Martial Kings were none other than the Supreme Elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

"Greetings, Elder Chen and Elder Lin," Ling Xuehua cupped her hands in greeting, and Ye Wuxi and the other disciples followed suit.

Elder Lin glanced around, and when his gaze fell on Ye Wuxi, he paused, "You are Ye Wuxi."

"Exactly."

"Yan girl mentioned you to me, but your cultivation level..." Elder Lin frowned, then looked at Duan Hong and Su Lingyi, "How come these two are also at the seventh level of the Xuanwu realm..."

"Elder Lin, Wuxi is the top inner disciple this time, with extremely strong combat power. Duan Hong is also ranked fourth. As for Lingyi, her strength is a bit lacking, but she is of ice attribute and has improved a lot after my training..." Ling Xuehua quickly explained.

Elder Lin nodded but didn't say anything more. She believed that Han Yunfei wouldn't randomly send in disciples with poor skills.

Elder Chen snorted coldly, "After all these years, your taste is still as bad as ever..."

Elder Lin flicked her sleeves and said, "It's been so long since I've left the mountain. It's normal that I don't know the disciples in the sect. With your limited perspective, are you worthy to speak to me? Among my true disciples, besides Huo Yun, who can rival me?"

"That's still second place. If I wanted to take on disciples, your girl wouldn't even rank second," Elder Chen said without changing his expression.

"You fart!"

"..."

Just as the two were about to fight, Ling Xuehua quickly spoke up, "Elders, please calm down. Other sects are watching."

Elder Chen and Elder Lin stopped fighting, each rolled their eyes, and returned to their previous positions.

Ye Wuxi looked into the distance and saw that the disciples of the Hehuan Sect and the Lieyuan Sect had arrived. Among the Hehuan Sect disciples, the woman at the front was Jiang Xiaoyu.

When she first met her in the Imperial City, she felt that she was quite extraordinary. Now, when she met her again, she found that she had also advanced from the third level of Xuanwu to the eighth level of Xuanwu, and her cultivation speed was even faster than hers.

The Hehuan Sect also noticed them, and a middle-aged man led a group of disciples toward them.

"Xuehua, it's been a long time," the middle-aged man said with a slight smile.

Ling Xuehua rolled her eyes. "Do you think I know you that well? Get lost!"

"Your temper is still as fiery as ever. However, the disciples you brought are not very good. What I said back then still holds true. Xuehua, why don't you come to our Hehuan Sect?" The middle-aged man glanced around and a frivolous smile appeared on his lips.

"He Daoshan, I'll say it again, get out!" Ling Xuehua said coldly.

He Daoshan wasn't angry. He said calmly to the disciples behind him, "The Heavenly Sword Sect is indeed arrogant. Once inside, there's no need to be polite."

The disciples of the Hehuan Sect nodded. The disciples of the two sects were never on good terms, and even without being reminded, they would never be on the same side.

Ling Xuehua sneered, "Just you?" Then she turned around and said, "Since the Hehuan Sect is determined to make trouble for us, you don't need to hold back. If you encounter them, kill them if you can. This elder will cover for you."

"clear."

He Daoshan flicked his sleeves and said, "How dare you talk so arrogantly! I'd like to see who kills whom!" With that, he left with a sullen face and the Hehuan Sect members.

"While you can make threats, if you encounter someone weaker, it's best to avoid them and avoid direct confrontation," Ling Xuehua advised.

Ye Wuxi and the others nodded, and after waiting for a while, they arrived at the Brahma Valley, which was farther away. This sect was quite unique, as it only accepted female disciples.

At first glance, all the beautiful figures were wearing veils, which was in stark contrast to the Lieyuan Sect, which was almost entirely composed of male disciples. One of the women felt quite familiar to Ye Wuxi.

Ye Wuxi thought for a moment, "It's that woman from Mingyu Kingdom, she's from Fanyin Valley."

The woman happened to be looking at her, a look of fear flashing across her face. Ye Wuxi smiled slightly. Quite a few acquaintances indeed. If she could kill them all in one go, that would be perfect.

The disciples of the four sects waited listlessly, but some elders still showed impatience.

"The Great Li Dynasty is so arrogant, making us four sects wait for so long!"

The disciples could only silently agree in their hearts; the elders could complain, but they could not express their dissatisfaction.

An hour later, several giant chariots roared past on the horizon, and young men and women dressed in gorgeous dresses and robes emerged, their expressions proud.

"Everyone, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Let's lift the restrictions now," the middle-aged man at the head of the group said, knowing he was late, and stopped wasting words.

The martial kings around the desert had long been impatient. Without saying a word, they instinctively formed hand seals and slapped towards the center of the desert.

boom!

A loud bang came from the bottom of the desert, and a white gate of light slowly rose up.

"The exit will open in three months. Everyone must remember to come out, otherwise there will be endless trouble."

"The gate of life is open, go in quickly."

After the elders of each sect gave their final instructions, the disciples stepped forward and rushed towards the gate of light.

The people from the Great Li Dynasty took the lead and were among the first to enter, which drew further dissatisfaction from the elders of the various sects.

"You all go too, remember to unite against external threats," Ling Xuehua waved her hand.

Ye Wuxi and the other disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect nodded in agreement and then quickly flew into the light gate.

Upon entering the portal, Ye Wuxi felt as if he were in the dark, unable to see anything around him or sense the presence of anyone else.

I felt a wave of dizziness, a feeling that wasn't unfamiliar, as I had experienced the same thing when entering the secret realm before, which must be the teleportation array.

Although the entrance is in the desert, it doesn't mean the tomb is underground. Judging from the teleportation array's timing, the burial site is probably quite far away.

After a while, the dizziness finally disappeared, and the surroundings were bright again.

Ye Wuxi landed on the ground, and at the same time, disciples from other sects appeared around him. All five major forces were represented, and there were about a hundred people in total.

Before me lay a wide passageway, its destination unknown.

"go!"

The people of the Great Li Dynasty quickly regrouped and rushed forward. Other forces also found their fellow disciples and left. Only the people of the Hehuan Sect looked at Ye Wuxi and the others with ill intent.

"Senior Sister Ye."

Dozens of disciples from the Heavenly Sword Sect gathered around Ye Wuxi. Ye Wuxi nodded and glanced at them; she wasn't very familiar with any of them.

boom!

"Kill the Heavenly Sword Sect!" The Hehuan Sect members did not rush to leave, but instead attacked together.
