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

Ye Wuxi quickly returned to the bodies of Wu Wan and the other two, and skillfully took out their spirit rings.

There were also over three hundred demon cores and several Rejuvenation Pills, but Wu Wan's spirit ring surprisingly contained fifty mid-grade spirit stones, which delighted Ye Wuxi for a moment.

After collecting all the spoils of victory, Ye Wuxi sighed, "These people are damn rich."

Everyone here is a new disciple, yet these people can casually produce dozens or even hundreds of mid-grade spirit stones. As expected of people from a mid-grade empire, they are much wealthier than this country bumpkin from Tianfeng Kingdom!

After glancing at the map, Ye Wuxi quickly sped deeper into the secret realm. The exit was located there, and everyone would eventually head there. She wasn't worried about not encountering Liu Yu'er and Duan Hong.

After venturing deeper for several dozen miles, the level of the monsters encountered remained relatively stable at around level two to three, with a few level two to five occasionally appearing.

Ye Wuxi shook his head. It was no wonder they wanted to find an alliance; quite a few of the new disciples were only at the first or second level of cultivation, and not everyone could fight beyond their level. If they acted alone, they'd be torn to shreds by the demonic beasts.

Just as they retrieved the demon core from the monster in front of them, a series of roars and sounds of fighting came from afar; judging from the sounds, there were at least ten beasts involved.

"Could we have encountered a pack of beasts? Let's go check," Ye Wuxi pondered for a moment, then dashed off towards the direction the sound came from.

What if he could snag a bargain? Or even rob someone? After killing those five people, Ye Wuxi realized that robbery was the fastest way to get rich…

Before long, Ye Wuxi arrived at a valley, hid behind a large tree, and cautiously peered into the valley.

In the valley, there were no fewer than forty giant black wolves. These giant black wolves were called Black Wind Demon Wolves, and they were all at the second or third level.

Among the wolf pack, there was a Black Wind Demon Wolf whose physique was significantly larger than the others. This Black Wind Demon Wolf was actually at the second level, fourth rank.

At this moment, the wolf pack was attacking a man and a woman, who were both newly recruited disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect, each possessing a cultivation level of the fourth level of the Profound Martial Realm.

The two were quite strong, but they were no match for the wolf pack's attack. Although they killed many Black Wind Demon Wolves, they were both wounded and looked quite disheveled.

With a level 2, level 4 demonic wolf lurking among the pack, launching occasional sneak attacks, the situation for these two was already far from optimistic.

"Brother, since you're here, why not come and lend a hand?"

At this moment, one of the boys suddenly looked at the tree where Ye Wuxi was hiding and shouted.

Having made no intention of concealing his presence, and now that he had been discovered, Ye Wuxi stopped hiding, jumped down from the tree, and stepped out.

"Oh, it's Junior Sister! Junior Sister, there are three Azure Nether Grasses in this valley. We'll hold off the wolves, you go and get them quickly."

Another round-faced girl, upon seeing Ye Wuxi, immediately shouted...

"Azure Nether Grass?"

Ye Wuxi's eyes lit up. The Azure Nether Grass was a Xuan-rank spiritual herb. Those at the lower level of the Xuanwu realm had a 50% chance of breaking through to the next realm after consuming it.

"Okay, then be careful."

After giving his warning, Ye Wuxi used the Flowing Cloud Chasing Moon Step to bypass the wolf pack and rushed into the depths of the valley.

"Awooo!" The level two, fourth-level demonic wolf howled as it saw Ye Wuxi rush into the valley, ordering its pack to pursue him.

"Where to go?"

The two shouted, their swords flashing, as they desperately held off the wolf pack, buying time for Ye Wuxi.

After Ye Wuxi entered the valley, he quickly discovered three Azure Nether Grasses at the foot of a rock wall.

After quickly picking three spiritual herbs, Ye Wuxi used his movement technique to swiftly fly out of the valley.

"Got it, let's get out of here!"

Ye Wuxi called out and then dashed away. Although she was powerful enough to wipe out all the demonic wolves, she decided not to reveal too much, considering the presence of these two.

Seeing that Ye Wuxi had succeeded, the two simultaneously unleashed a sword aura to repel the wolf pack, then rapidly headed in the direction Ye Wuxi had fled.

Watching the departing figures, the Black Wind Demon Wolves roared angrily, shaking the earth, but they retreated helplessly, for they dared not easily leave their territory.

The three shook off the wolves and arrived at a rather secluded cave.

"Three Azure Nether Grasses, that's just enough for each of us," Ye Wuxi said with a smile. She naturally wouldn't offer help to friendly people and was happy to share with everyone.

"Hehe, junior sister, thank you so much for picking the Azure Nether Grass for us."

Upon hearing Ye Wuxi's words, the two exchanged a glance, and the white-clad girl's lips curled into a strange smile.

"Hmm? Judging from your tone, you two are planning to abandon me after I've served my purpose?" Ye Wuxi raised an eyebrow and said with a smile.

The two men, with enigmatic smiles on their faces, blocked Ye Wuxi's path from both sides.

The girl smiled and said, "Junior sister, that's not what we meant. It's just that you're only at the first level of the Xuanwu realm, and consuming the Azure Nether Grass would be a waste. Why don't you give it all to us? That way, your senior sisters and brothers can protect you."

Ye Wuxi scoffed, "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have gotten this Azure Nether Grass either. Everyone contributed, so isn't it only fair that we share it equally?"

The world of martial arts is indeed cruel. These two seemed kind, but unexpectedly, they could turn on each other in an instant over a mere Azure Nether Grass.

The man said impatiently, "Junior sister, hand it all over now, and we might spare your life..."

Ye Wuxi smiled calmly, "Interesting, truly interesting..."

Seeing that Ye Wuxi remained unmoved, the young girl said coldly, "Junior sister, this is your last chance. Our patience is running out."

Ye Wuxi said with a half-smile, "Unfortunately, I don't want to give you another chance."

The two men stared at Ye Wuxi as if she were a fool and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Why would two Xuanwu level four cultivators need a mere level one cultivator to give them a chance? Have they lost their minds?

"It means you will all die!" Ye Wuxi coldly uttered these words, and then the Cold Moon Sword suddenly appeared in her hand.

"Kill her!" the man roared.

The girl nodded, and the two of them subtly moved their swords, simultaneously unleashing a powerful strike at Ye Wuxi.

In their eyes, Ye Wuxi was merely a Xuanwu level one cultivator, someone they could crush with a flick of their fingers. They feared that with their two hands, Ye Wuxi would be reduced to ashes.

Ye Wuxi's lips curled into a disdainful smile as he unleashed the power of all five of his dantian.

"Phoenix Spreads Its Wings"

Soaring through the nine heavens

"Phoenix feathers fluttering"

Empowered by the Five-Colored True Qi, Ye Wuxi unleashed three moves simultaneously. The two underestimating opponents didn't even have time to react before they were utterly dead.

Looking at the two corpses, Ye Wuxi's eyes flashed with mockery. "I didn't want to rob you, but you insisted on courting death. You deserved it."

They took out their storage rings, which contained a total of five hundred demon cores, three hundred mid-grade spirit stones, and several pills...

Ye Wuxi muttered to himself, "The harvest these past two days has been quite good. These spirit stones, plus three spirit herbs, should be enough for me to break through."
