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

“Four Eight Tribulations…” Mu Yao’s expression changed, and both the open and hidden half-saints were moved.

"Stop them," Lü Qingwan said calmly.

The purpose of this trip was to use Tuoba Jin to eliminate a dangerous king. Unless a powerful figure from outside the Eight Realms, comparable to the Tuoba clan, came to the aid, Ye Wuxi was doomed.

Which of the kings isn't proud and unwilling to bow their heads? Tuoba Jin is one, and so is Ye Wuxi. It's destined that no matter who wins or loses today, it won't end easily.

The Heavenly Saint Dao Palace wants to create a king? It's not that easy.

"Disrespecting His Highness Tuoba deserves death." The four gray-robed men spoke coldly, grabbing at Ye Wuxi as they tried to crush him.

"Mother." No one could get close to the open space. Suddenly, a demonic dragon emerged from Ye Wuxi's body, carrying her away into the void.

"We can't let her escape." Tuoba Jin coughed twice after taking the pill, his weak voice carrying out.

"Your Highness, rest assured." As the four finished speaking, Ye Lingke and Ye Wuxi appeared, and the Life and Death Lotus that enveloped them shattered layer by layer.

Just as the man and the dragon were about to be killed, the space in front of them fluctuated, and a young woman in black appeared with her hands behind her back. "What a wonderful show."

All attacks from heaven and earth vanished with a single word from her.

"Who are you?" Neither of the two semi-saints could discern the woman's origin or even her cultivation level. Tuoba, the leading semi-saint, tentatively inquired.

"That's not important. You can get out of here before I change my mind," the woman in black said calmly.

"A ninth-tribulation prodigy of the Divine Dragon Clan." From beyond the heavens, Pang Sheng's eyes darkened.

The demigods couldn't discern the origins and true identity of the woman in black, but they couldn't hide it from the discerning eyes of their Holy King.

"You lost." Jiang Sheng said with a smile on his lips.

"You're good at delivering messages, but unfortunately, they don't seem to care at all. I think you've just asked for trouble," Pang Sheng sneered.

At least the woman in black didn't intend to kill him, even though Tuoba accepted the knife he offered.

Jiang Sheng smiled faintly and remained silent, looking behind the woman in black with his hands behind his back.

There, Ye Wuxi's eyes were closed, seemingly unaware of the arrival of the woman in black. The shattered Life and Death Lotus around her was blooming and transforming again, gradually enveloping her body.

Life and death are two extremes, yet they are mutually reinforcing in a cycle.

"He's actually breaking through..." Tuoba Yiwang, the fourth half-saint, was still annoyed by the black-clothed woman's words when he saw Ye Wuxi breaking through, and his anger intensified.

Tuoba Jin's blood and qi surged in reverse, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

He had always been the one who stepped on others to grow, but Ye Wuxi actually turned the tables and used his sacred body to truly become a Heavenly Emperor.

"What a path of life and death! There is no place to hone the Great Dao more than this battlefield of life and death." Pang Sheng's eyes were gloomy.

Life and death are difficult, but this battle directly helped Ye Wuxi achieve the perfect path. Not only Ye Wuxi, but also other alien beings in the Heavenly Saint Dao Palace grew rapidly through the battle.

It wasn't just his cultivation that grew, but also his fearlessness and invincible spirit, though unfortunately it was nurtured with the blood of his Canglan disciples.

Although Canglan started it first, Jiang Taibai probably wanted to start this interdimensional war even more than him, he was just waiting for an opportunity.

"Thank you for your kind words, Brother Pang. I am truly blessed. The Five Realms Return to Heaven's Ruins, this is the end." Jiang Sheng said with a smile.

Soon, the enormous lotus of life and death in the air slowly opened and disappeared. Ye Wuxi's blue clothes fluttered, and she suddenly opened her eyes, her aura soaring into the sky. The Taifan Holy Sword returned to her side and affectionately circled around her.

Not far away, Tuoba Jin's eyes stiffened slightly, and he seemed somewhat afraid to meet Tuoba Jin's gaze.

Although Ye Wuxi's strength as a newly ascended Heavenly Emperor wouldn't increase much compared to when she used a secret technique to raise her cultivation to the Heavenly Emperor level, it was still different. Now she was truly at the same level as him.

"Hmm?" Ye Wuxi glanced at the Tuoba clan and the others before noticing the woman in black standing right in front of her, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

She was actually confident she wouldn't die today, but the person who appeared was not the one she expected.

The woman in black also turned her gaze to her, but did not speak. Instead, she shouted at Tuoba and the others, "If you don't get out of here, you'll die."

"You..." Tuoba Jin was about to speak when he was stopped by Tuoba Si, the half-saint. The leading half-saint quickly transmitted his voice, "Your Highness, this woman has quite a background. We should leave first and discuss this further."

"This battle is not over yet."

In front of the eight emperors, Tuoba Jin flicked his sleeves, leaving behind a single sentence, and led the group from the Northern Wilderness away into the void.

As soon as Tuoba left, the woman in black waved her hand, and a terrifying divine light enveloped Ye Wuxi and the demonic dragon beside her, seemingly impenetrable to everyone, including the Holy King.

Both armies could only frown and wait and see what would happen.

In this strange space, Ye Wuxi looked at where her gaze was directed and asked first, "Senior, did you come for Ling Ke?"

"Ling Ke... not a bad name, but you dare to instigate the lost royal bloodline of my clan to recognize you as their mother and use you at will. How dare you."

The woman in black spoke calmly, releasing an aura of pressure.

"Senior, you're overthinking it. I was merely entrusted by Ling Ke's birth mother on her deathbed to help nurture and care for her with my own dragon blood."

“But now there are fewer and fewer places where I can help Ling Ke cultivate. Staying by my side is burying her talent and bloodline. If you are here to take her back to the clan for training, I would be happy to do so.”

Ye Wuxi remained expressionless and spoke slowly.

"Mother, do you not want Ling Ke anymore..." Ye Ling Ke asked anxiously upon hearing her words.

"Little girl, she's not your real mother." The woman in black withdrew her imposing aura, raised an eyebrow at Ye Wuxi, and said, "You're honest and sensible, but if it weren't for me today, but for those old fogies in the clan, you might not be alive to say these things."

"Of course, if it weren't for your talent and the fact that you defeated the Battle Saint Body, I probably wouldn't have let you live."

The dignity of the Divine Dragon Clan cannot be offended, let alone the fact that a member of the clan's royal lineage would recognize an ordinary human as his mother. There are quite a few people in the Eight Realms who know this, and if it gets back up there, it would indeed damage their prestige.

"Thank you, senior." Ye Wuxi smiled faintly.

"There's no need for that, senior. Ling Ke has many laws and is very approachable. We should thank you, but the clan won't think that way for now, nor will they give you any leverage. Helping you drive away Gu Xuan and the others will stop here."

"As for Ling Ke, don't worry. She will receive the best treatment and training from my royal family. You'll only be able to envy her life."

The woman in black smiled and said.

"That's good then, Ling Ke, you can go back with this sister." Ye Wuxi sighed inwardly, thinking that it's better to be born with a good birth than to try hard.

"Mother, I want to stay by your side and not go anywhere else." Ye Lingke shook her head violently.

"Didn't you want to protect your mother? If you don't go back to the clan with this older sister, how will you increase your strength and become stronger? It's just that you're training in a different place. It's not like you'll never see her again. Go."

Ye Wuxi patted her and spoke frankly.

"It seems so..." Ye Lingke thought for a moment and was no longer so resistant.

"Your plan is quite clever." The woman in black gave Ye Lingke no chance to think, abruptly taking her into her magic artifact, and then raised an eyebrow and smiled at Ye Wuxi: "My name is Long Bijun, until we meet again."

The divine light of heaven and earth disappeared, and Ye Wuxi reappeared in everyone's sight, but the demonic dragon was gone, and the woman in black was nowhere to be seen either.
