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

"Three months from now, the Heavenly Saint Palace will hold a grand ceremony to confer the title of King. All are welcome to attend." As Long Bijun departed, the voice of the Holy King echoed from beyond the heavens, lingering for a long time.

Both allied forces couldn't help but look at Ye Wuxi. It seemed unnecessary to specify who was to be crowned king.

"What a brilliant victory, becoming a king in one battle!" Lu Qingwan received a telepathic message in her mind at the same time. She glanced at Ye Wuxi and calmly said to the army, "Let's retreat."

In the Eight Realms Dao Palace, none of those below the level of Half-Saint have been granted the title of King. Now that Ye Wuxi has defeated all the emperors of the Eight Realms and twice won battles in the Northern Wilderness, he is indeed qualified to be called King.

The Canglan Allied Forces retreated, and the Tianxu Army also received Jiang Sheng's message and did not pursue them further.

The two holy kings have clearly reached an agreement, and the border war will end here.

"The target is the Five Realms, without missing a single one." Ye Wuxi sighed inwardly, recalling Jiang Sheng's words when he decided to send troops.

Their lives seem to be nothing more than a game for the strong.

"Congratulations, Wuxi." Mu Yao, Zhuge Heng, and the other reinforcements from the other three realms all offered their congratulations.

Once you are granted the title of king, your status will truly be different.

"Thank you all." Ye Wuxi smiled and cupped her hands in greeting to Lu Zhiyuan and the others, then looked at Mu Yao and said, "Sister Mu, I have to go back to Changqing first. I'll leave things here to you."

"Go ahead, the investiture ceremony is imminent, everyone should return to the Dao Palace as soon as possible." Mu Yao nodded with a smile.

The Evergreen Realm had long been under Ye Wuxi's rule, but due to the constant inter-realm wars, it had not yet been reorganized, and the Evergreen Heavenly Emperor's Palace was particularly empty.

Ye Wuxi returned with only the disciples of the wine shop. In the main hall, several familiar figures were waiting for them.

"You unreliable bastard, you almost killed me, do you know that?"

Ye Wuxi looked at the smiling, adorable face in the hall and slammed a palm at it.

She remained calm and composed throughout, and even her senior sister and the others weren't in a hurry. They knew that Ye Lao Er and the powerful members of the Divine Tiger Clan should be watching from the shadows. Who knew that this old charlatan didn't even show up and just watched her get beaten half to death.

The tavern disciples and tiger clan experts quickly stepped aside, making way for the two.

"Old Ye, violence is a disease, it needs to be cured. I'm not one of those useless holy bodies, you think you can ambush me in my next life?"

Knowing her nature, Gai Wanshuang acted almost simultaneously and subdued her.

"You've become a half-saint." Ye Wuxi withdrew his hand reluctantly and coughed twice.

This old charlatan never seems to suffer a loss; her path of sneak attacks seems to be taking her 'leader's authority' further and further away.

“That person from the Divine Dragon Clan has been following us closely, and there are four more cunning individuals watching from outside the boundary. It’s not advisable for us to show ourselves openly for the time being. Anyway, with Ling Ke around, she won’t just watch you die.”

Gai Wanshuang snorted coldly.

"Do you know that she actually came to kill me!" Ye Wuxi said through gritted teeth.

Throughout Jin Hong's journey, she kept Ling Ke inside her body, preventing her from showing herself, clearly intending to take precautions just in case.

But Long Bijun's words were also very honest. If it were an old guy, she probably wouldn't have lived to see the battle with Tuoba Jin.

"You didn't die, and you even broke through. In other words, you're just asking for a beating. You can't cultivate in a normal environment; you have to be beaten half to death before you can break through."

Gai Wanshuang raised an eyebrow and retorted mercilessly.

"You two are so old and still bickering. Why don't you take a look at Master's sword first?" Chu Jiangli sighed helplessly.

Ye Wuxi glanced at the second brother and summoned the Taifan Sword.

Tai Fan swayed out and circled affectionately around his nine disciples.

“This sacred artifact is extraordinary. I didn’t expect that Old Xiao, with his mediocre talent, would do so well.” Gai Wanshuang suddenly raised her eyebrows and looked at Ye Wuxi, then changed the subject and said, “Speaking of which, you actually had an advantage in terms of weaponry when you lost the final battle. This sword is of much higher quality than that broken stick.”

"Didn't he say that weapons are also part of strength?" Ye Wuxi said without changing his expression, then looked at Tai Fan with a slight frown and said, "However, I am very worried about Master now."

He brought the sword to them, but what about himself?

Judging from the fluctuations left by his master outside the Taishi Clan, he is at most at the peak of the Heavenly Emperor realm, or just entered the Half-Saint realm. Without the Holy Sword in his hand, he will definitely be in great danger.

"This sword is extraordinary and must not be unknown. Its origin should not be difficult to trace. After Xi'er is crowned a queen, we should go and find it."

Chu Jiangli said in a deep voice.

Like them, Master came from a small continent. He probably obtained this sacred artifact by chance and only recognizes it as his master.

Ye Wuxi and the other eight nodded. Now that they had gained some strength, it was time to put the search for their master on the agenda.

"You should investigate the origins of this matter first. Let's get down to business. There are more than just a few of us here. Staying in Gu Xuan's place with too many eyes is not good for the recovery of our elders. From now on, the remaining forces of our clan will be stationed here permanently."

Gai Wanshuang said seriously.

"How are the seniors recovering?" Ye Wuxi asked thoughtfully.

"With that thing of yours, the Holy King will be here soon."

"Actually, after this trip, I also feel that we should have our own strength," Ye Wuxi said, looking at Chu Jiangli and the others.

Owning a realm, they can establish and cultivate their own unique legions.

Compared to the Dao Palace, she trusted Ye Lao Er and the remaining power of the Divine Tiger Clan behind him more. If they recovered, they would be their true help and protection.

"How about the Crimson Sky Realm? It's currently empty, making it convenient to travel with Changqing." Chu Jiangli immediately waved out the realm map and said with a smile.

Entering the Emperor Ranking allows one to choose to become the ruler of a realm. Right now, the realm war has just ended, and there are many vacancies for the realm ruler position.

"As expected, I didn't misjudge you. You are very perceptive. Chi Kong is good, but not enough. Remember to include Wujie in Changqing as well."

Gai Wanshuang looked at the boundary map and said with a smile.

"What about us?" Gu Baiyi scratched his head.

She and Du'enan were not in the Heavenly Saint Dao Palace. Even if they could serve as realm masters under their own Dao Palace, it would still be too far away.

"This doesn't depend on the distance; the three of you can figure it out yourselves," Chu Jiangli said with a smile.

As for Ying Zheng and the others, it will take some time before they can become realm masters.

"However, as the main base, what I want is for you, Old Ye, to have absolute control over Changqing. I don't want you to go directly to the palace, and for any Tom, Dick, or Harry to come and go as they please. As for the rest, my clan will have its own ways to avoid detection."

"I know Jiang Sheng probably won't refuse."

"In that case, you should make arrangements for these two realms as soon as possible. You can leave a passage for Jiang Li's Crimson Sky, but Changqing is absolutely out of the question. It's not pleasant to be spied on and controlled by others."

Gai Wanshuang waved her hand and said.

"You're getting cocky now." Taking advantage of her momentary lapse in attention, Ye Wuxi punched her in the forehead with the power of time and space.

"You damned bastard, I'll cripple you!" Gai Wanshuang, caught off guard by being blasted back a few steps, was enraged and prepared to retaliate.

"So imposing, is Tuoba Jin possessing you?" Ye Wuxi crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow with a smile.

"Who would want to be compared to that kind of trash?"

"I heard that Tuoba has two kings, who should be half-saints, right? Why don't you go and have a spar with them and see who's the weaker one?"

"What kind of bullshit king? I have no interest." Gai Wanshuang coughed twice, suddenly stopped her attack, and resumed her senior demeanor.
