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

"Xi'er, your strength has improved so quickly! A fifth-grade sect is indeed extraordinary." Only after mounting the griffin did Ye Qingqing have time to observe Ye Wuxi's cultivation level.

"How is Qin Hao doing?" Ye Wuxi smiled and changed the subject; she didn't think his improvement was fast.

"Qin Hao became an inner disciple of the Wind Spirit Sect through the recommendation of that admissions elder, but his cultivation level has already fallen behind yours; he's only at the fifth level of the Profound Martial Realm..."

"Did he go to Jieming Pass?"

"No, the Qin family would love for our General's Cavalry to be wiped out. Few of the talented young men from the families in the capital went to help, and the royal family has been slow to send reinforcements. It's really not worth it for our Ye family." Ye Qingqing said angrily.

Ye Wuxi remained calm. Ye Xicheng commanded 100,000 iron cavalry, which was bound to be feared in secular countries. The royal family was even less likely to trust the Ye family and probably intended to use this war to suppress them.

What's the situation with the genius in the enemy army?

"Her identity is unknown. She is a woman wearing a mask. Her cultivation level is the ninth level of Xuanwu, not reaching the Earth Martial Realm. Under her leadership, our Blood Tiger Camp was almost wiped out. We don't know what has happened to her now."

Ye Qingqing said worriedly, "This round trip has already taken so long, the situation at the border must be even more severe. The Blood Tiger Camp is an elite force composed of Xuanwu level nine warriors. If they are wiped out, the army will be at our mercy."

"The ninth level of the Xuanwu realm? Nothing to worry about!"

Ye Wuxi closed his eyes in relief. Even at the speed of a griffin, it would take ten days to get back to Tianfeng Kingdom. There was no use in being anxious. He might as well calm down and use the hurricane to cultivate.

Seeing her confident demeanor, Ye Qingqing had no choice but to shut up...

Inside the military tent at Jieming Pass, Ye Xicheng's face was full of worry.

"General, the Blood Tiger Battalion only has a thousand men left. If the enemy attacks again, we really won't be able to hold out."

As soon as the middle-aged man in black armor finished speaking, two beautiful figures strode in.

"Father, I'm back!"

"Xi'er, what are you doing back here? Qingqing, I told you to tell Wuxi not to come back for the time being, but you..."

"Father, I've come back to help you. As long as no one at the Earth Martial Realm appears, I have a way to wipe out the entire enemy force," Ye Wuxi said with a slight smile.

"Young General, is it true?" Ye Xicheng's daughter was naturally familiar to the people in the army.

"Uncle Cheng, I would never joke about such important military matters."

"This humble general knows that the young general has entered the Heavenly Sword Sect to study and has extraordinary talent, but..." Song Cheng, Ye Xicheng's trusted general, hesitated when he looked at Ye Wuxi's cultivation level.

Ye Xicheng was also skeptical, so Ye Wuxi could only make up a story, "Father, Uncle Cheng, you can rest assured. I have killed quite a few Xuanwu Ninth Level cultivators. If the one on the other side goes up, I will deal with him."

Ye Xicheng no longer doubted and laughed loudly, "Alright, my daughter is naturally no worse than others. Xi'er, let me tell you about the situation."

After discussing the strategy for tomorrow's battle against the enemy, Ye Wuxi followed Ye Xicheng to the Blood Tiger Camp to familiarize himself with the location before returning to his tent to rest.

The next day, the army, with its flags bearing a pair of wings, arrived precisely on time at the open plain outside Jieming Pass.

On the city wall, Ye Wuxi, who had also acquired a mask, glanced around, then mounted his warhorse and led the Blood Tiger Camp, following the army's steps, out of the city gate.

The two sides faced off. Beside the opposing general was a woman dressed in a white outfit, wearing a blue and white mask, exuding a powerful aura.

"Ye Xicheng, is that the helper you found next to you? He doesn't look very promising, hahaha, today none of your Blood Tiger Camp members will live!"

Ye Wuxi, riding her warhorse and standing beside Ye Xicheng, smiled slightly. It was best if she looked down on him; that was exactly the effect she wanted.

"Don't talk big too soon. Shouldn't we try a different approach to the match today?"

"As General Ye said, but as I said before, neither side's Earth Martial Realm cultivators should make a move!" the woman in white said first.

“No problem. How about we retreat with the rest of our army and leave only the Xuanwu Ninth Level army?” Ye Wuxi said lazily. She had come up with a new method last night and wanted to test it today.

The woman in white was somewhat surprised. She looked him up and down and sneered, "Just you and those thousand remnants behind you?"

"You don't dare?" Ye Wuxi retorted directly.

"If you want to die, so be it. All of you, step back..." the woman in white waved her hand.

Soon, on the plains outside the pass, only the Mingyu Kingdom's six thousand Xuanwu Nine-fold army and the Blood Tiger Camp's one thousand soldiers remained.

"You all step back!" Ye Wuxi waved to the people behind him before continuing to look at the woman in white and said, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate for a genius like you to come to the army and bully ordinary soldiers? Do you dare to fight me one-on-one?"

The woman in white sneered, "What a ridiculous scheme you're plotting. What harm is there in giving you this opportunity?"

With that, a jade fan appeared in her hand. With a light tap of her feet, the woman in white instantly approached Ye Wuxi. She waved the jade fan and softly shouted, "Rain of Pear Blossoms!"

Instantly, countless pear blossom-shaped sharp blades appeared all around, attacking Ye Wuxi.

With the Shadow Sword appearing in his hand, Ye Wuxi flashed forward and swiftly unleashed a sword strike.

"Drunkenly Slaying the Long River, Burning the Heavens with the Sword!"

A terrifying sword aura soared into the sky, and the blue and red sword light instantly annihilated all the blades.

The retreating army felt their scalps tingle; no wonder the young general was so confident.

Ye Wuxi did not stop walking, and his clear, cold voice rolled out, "Laughing, I tread the vast waves and cross the river!"

An overwhelming wave of sword energy swept out, and disbelief flashed in the white-clad woman's eyes. She retreated rapidly, but the sword light followed her like a shadow, arriving in front of her in the blink of an eye.

With just two sword strikes, the woman in white was blasted back, spitting out blood. But Ye Wuxi wouldn't give her a chance. Using the Flowing Cloud Chasing Moon Step, he continued to advance.

General Zhang from the opposing side flew directly through the air, helped up the woman in white, and then swung a palm at Ye Wuxi.

"You think I'm not here?!" Ye Xicheng flew over and blocked his attack.

The two Earth Martial Realm cultivators moved quickly, while the rest of the army couldn't keep up. Ye Wuxi ignored them, raising four balls of five-colored true essence in his left hand and a cold white flame in his right, as he charged towards the enemy's Xuanwu Ninefold Army.

Ye Wuxi shaped the four clusters of five-colored true essence into a lotus flower, and then incorporated the flame power of the Vermilion Bird Flame into the five-colored lotus flower.

The lotus petals enveloped the power of the flames, slightly closed, and a huge five-colored fire lotus appeared in front of Ye Wuxi.

Ye Wuxi smiled slightly and slapped the five-colored fire lotus towards the enemy's Xuanwu Nine-Headed Army. It seemed like a long time had passed, but in the eyes of the army, only a few breaths had gone by. Before they could even react, the fire lotus was already above their heads...

boom!

As the fiery lotus charged into the crowd, screams of agony erupted...

Ah!

The screams were incessant, and the Mingyu Kingdom's army had no time to resist before more than half of them were killed.

One lotus can defeat a thousand troops!

Seeing that his elite troops were about to be wiped out, General Zhang realized what was happening, helped the woman in white retreat, and roared, "Kill them all!"

"Stop them!" Ye Xicheng's voice echoed across the army.
