Chapter 1513: Turn Around

Translator: Atlas Studios | Editor: Atlas Studios

The rumbling of the ground was still echoing.

No matter how the Seventeenth Ruler struggled, he couldn’t retaliate at all. In terms of understanding of authority, the Seventeenth Ruler was clearly much inferior to Lu Lingzi.

Countless wounds appeared on his body and blood gushed out, and the air from a range of five million kilometers permeated everything, as though it wanted to fill all the gaps in his body and even his soul.

Once it was completed, the Seventeenth Ruler’s body and soul would be destroyed.

The commotion caused by this scene was too astonishing. Hence, many vast figures descended one after another.

Some had solemn expressions, some had surprise in their eyes, and some were deep in thought. They had different thoughts but the waves in their hearts were the same!

“Lu Lingzi’s understanding of his authority has actually reached such a level!” “No wonder he was valued by Great Emperor Nether Flame. No wonder the Lan family’s scheme against him had failed so miserably!”

“And Xue Chenzi… is also extraordinary. However, other than the Nether Flame secret art, he must have other secrets. It’s a pity that his battle with the West Demon Child was concealed by Lu Lingzi.”

“However, from the traces of the heavenly demon escaping, I can make a judgment. He should have used an unimown method to make the heavenly demon rebel.”

“Although the heavenly demon authority’s killing prowess is astonishing and can allow those who comprehend it to advance by leaps and bounds, the drawback is still difficult to resolve. There’s always the risk of betrayal and backlash.”

While everyone was shocked, Xu Qing also had various thoughts.

The Empress’ arrival made him heave a sigh of relief. At the same time, he knew that his previous guess was correct. The Empress came to the West Demon Feather to take the initiative.

Now, She had clearly obtained the initiative. Hence, with a raise of Her hand, She made air in the range of five million kilometers gather and descend upon the Seventeenth Ruler.

This was establishing might.

It was also displaying Her stance.

Xu Qing understood this. From this matter, he also learned some ways to deal with things.

This was knowledge he hadn’t learned from Old Master Seventh.

His gaze then landed on the Seventeenth Ruler. Looking at his struggle and the distortion of his face, he could imagine the terrifying weight on him.

The Empress looked calm from the start. She didn’t choose to kill. Instead, the instant the Seventeenth Ruler was about to be unable to withstand the weight, the blood eye on Her forehead closed.

She retracted Her authority.

The sun that appeared in the sky because of Her also closed at this instant and disappeared.

The air that landed on the Seventeenth Ruler dispersed with the wind.

After losing the weight, the injuries on the Seventeenth Ruler’s body rapidly recovered. His body blurred and disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already in mid-air. He looked at the Empress with a complicated expression and didn’t speak at all.

He wasn’t the only one. The various Rulers who were watching this battle also fell silent.

This method of subtly and gently taking significant action showed the understanding of authority and the attitude of an expert.

“Can you still move?”

The Empress turned Her head and glanced at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing hurriedly nodded.

“Then let’s go. We’re returning to the East Demon Feather.”

After the Empress finished speaking, She walked toward the horizon.

Xu Qing didn’t dare to hesitate. He quickly rose into the air and followed behind.

Just like that, under the gaze of the various Rulers of the West Demon Feather, the Empress brought Xu Qing and calmly walked in the sky, gradually disappearing into the horizon.

From the start to the end, no one appeared to stop them.

As for the West Demon Child, he seemed to have been forgotten.

If he died, so be it.

Only the Seventeenth Ruler had an even more complicated expression as he looked at the withered corpse formed by the backlash from the heavenly demon.

In the end, he sighed and put it away before turning to leave.

This journey to the west ended here.

The wind was returning, blowing across millions of kilometers and the gaze carried by the wind was also returning.

On the wing-like Dao altar of the West Demon Feather, the Demon Feather Great Emperor retracted his gaze.

“Interesting.”

“Are you so sure that I’ll let you do whatever you want?”

The Demon Feather Great Emperor muttered with a deep gaze.

As his voice rang out, sinister laughter echoed above him.

This laughter came from the black-robed man who was being burned by the iron chains.

“Of course She® is sure!”

When the Demon Feather Great Emperor heard this, he raised his head and looked at the black-robed person. After a while of silence, he suddenly laughed.

At that moment, at the intersection of the east and west Demon Feather, the Empress was strolling in front with Xu Qing following behind.

The Empress didn’t speak, so Xu Qing couldn’t say anything.

He was recalling his journey to the west this time, trying to find more points to learn from.

‘Ever since the Empress came to the West Demon Feather, the Demon Feather Great Emperor issued a decree, setting the tone.’

‘After that, the various Rulers more or less spread the thought of challenging.’

Xu Qing pondered.

Coupled with the situation with the east and west Demon Feather, it wasn’t difficult for him to understand this matter. This was a battle between the east and west Demon Feather.

Especially since Lu Lingzi’s identity was very sensitive. Not only was he the disciple of Great Emperor Nether Flame, but he was also a peerless genius of the East Demon Feather. He had even broken through the Lan family’s plan and obtained enough bloodline power to advance to the Ruler Realm.

After that, he displayed his outstanding methods and threw out the secret of Great Emperor Nether Flame’s seclusion, sharing it with everyone. He joined forces with the other Rulers of the East Demon Feather and took over all the forces and resources of the Lan family with the least obstruction.

During this time, he even released several spots to enter the seclusion place of Great Emperor Nether Flame. It even vaguely showed the intention of sowing the seed of conflict. This broke down the barriers between the east and the west, making it possible for the West Demon Feather to have the possibility of getting a share of it.

After Xu Qing recalled carefully, he learned a little from this. At the same time, he also understood the attitude of the West Demon Feather.

This was because with such a background, identity, and methods, coupled with his domineering rise, Lu Lingzi naturally attracted the attention of many people in the Demon Feather holy land.

However, some things clearly couldn’t be judged so easily. Hence, after the Demon Feather Great Emperor set the tone, for the West Demon Feather, suppressing Lu Lingzi to a certain extent was a mission that didn’t need to be spelled out.

‘However, the Empress didn’t accept the challenge. Instead, She arranged for me to challenge them to take the initiative.’

Xu Qing concluded inwardly and knew that he had completed this mission perfectly.

Hence, after the Seventeenth Ruler descended, the Empress chose to attack domineeringly.

‘Then, there’s a key point here. Did the Demon Feather Great Emperor really not see through it? Or is it because of some unknown reasons that he deliberately let it go?’

Xu Qing looked at the Empress’ back view. After some thought, he had a guess.

Just like that, time flowed by.

Under the unhurried pace of the Empress, when the afterglow of the setting sun scattered on the Tenth Ruler Mountain, the rogue cultivators surrounding this place saw the two people who had returned from the sky.

All of them lowered their heads excitedly and respectfully. Xu Qing followed the Empress back to the Tenth Ruler Mountain.

After stepping into the main hall, Xu Qing bowed and hesitated for a moment before telling the Empress about the red candle totem on his back.

When the Empress heard this, She calmly spoke.

“I thought you were going to continue hiding.”

“Turn around and take off your clothes.”

Xu Qing immediately took off his clothes. His back was facing the Empress, revealing the candle totem on his back.

The Empress’ gaze landed and She took a few careful glances. A hint of surprise appeared on Her face.

A long time later, She calmly spoke.

“The source of this candle isn’t Wanggu but an ancient organization in the ninth star ring.”

“Before this, I never heard that it could be transferred to a cultivator. If it’s ignited, it can burn the soul.”

“I can help you seal it, but for you, this item is both a blessing and a curse.

Everything depends on how you use it.”

“Therefore, it’s up to you to decide if you want to seal it or not.”

After the Empress finished speaking, She retracted Her gaze.

Xu Qing finished putting on his clothes and pondered. After pondering over the Empress’ words, he didn’t request for the seal immediately. Instead, he planned to study it himself. Hence, he cupped his fists in gratitude and was about to turn to leave.

The Empress’ voice echoed again.

“You can’t leave the mountain.”

“Five days later, take my token and make a trip to the Immortal Arts Hall of the East Demon Feather.”

Xu Qing blinked when he heard this. Eldest Senior Brother’s figure instantly appeared in his mind. Hence, he turned his head and looked at the Empress.

“Your Majesty, the East Demon Feather Immortal Arts Hall…”

The Empress snorted coldly.

“Yesterday, the East Demon Feather Immortal Arts Hall issued an announcement inviting all the dominant forces of the East Demon Feather to send people to witness their Great Immortal Master ceremony.”

“Also, they informed everyone that the disciple of the original Great Immortal Master of the Immortal Arts Hall, Yue Dong, failed to compete with the Great Elder for the position of this generation’s Great Immortal Master and was captured alive by the Great Elder.”

“In five days, the Immortal Arts Hall’s inheritance ceremony will start, refining and stripping Yue Dong’s Six Thieves Delusions Immortal Art.”

“This ritual requires the approval of all the Ruler Mountains, so we have obtained the invitation.”

When the Empress’ voice landed in Xu Qing’s ears, his expression instantly turned strange.

He knew that… the Empress definitely knew Yue Dong’s identity.

As for the fact that Eldest Senior Brother had failed to get the position of the Great Immortal Master, Xu Qing’s first reaction was that Eldest Senior Brother had done it on purpose.

He understood his unreliable and crazy Eldest Senior Brother too well.

“Go and see how that Yue Dong will be deprived of her immortal art.”

The Empress glanced at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing took a deep breath and agreed.

Seeing Xu Qing like this, the Empress raised Her hand and rubbed Her forehead. Back then, what She was most worried about was that an uncontrollable variable would appear. Hence, She sent Xu Qing and Erniu away. However, they still came.

Moreover, each of them was more troublesome than the other.

“The Ruler Mountains’ attitude towards the Immortal Arts Hall is to support the victor and not to interfere in their internal affairs. When you go there, don’t make the situation worse.”

“Also, tell your senior brother that the Sun God of the Flame Moon’s Three Gods mentioned that They wanted to conscript him into Flame Moon’s war, but I declined on his behalf.”

The Empress added.

Xu Qing could hear the threat in Her words. He hurriedly bowed and bade farewell.

After watching Xu Qing leave, the Empress shook Her head.

“No wonder their master chose to let them roam freely rather than keeping them by his side…”

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

Early in the morning, as the light of dawn scattered down, Xu Qing flew out on the Tenth Ruler Mountain, heading straight for the East Demon Feather’s Immortal Arts Hall.

He wasn’t anxious at all. Instead, he felt some anticipation.
