At the Xuanming Sect headquarters.
"The Huan Yin Sect has been making frequent moves lately. What the hell is that Empress up to?"
A dwarf, who looked like a three-year-old child, stood with his hands behind his back. He wore skull ornants, had two curved horns on his forehead, and a fla mark between his eyebrows. Yet, he emanated a terrifying aura and authority that no one dared to underestimate.
He was Zhu Yougui, the Dark Emperor of the Xuanming Sect, and also the eldest son of Emperor Liang, Zhu Wen.
Because he had forcibly cultivated the lower volu of the Jiu You Mysterious Heavenly Divine Skill, he had succumbed to cultivation deviation, and his body had beco dwarfish, making him neither human nor ghost.
His wife, Lady Zhang, had also been presented to his father, Emperor Liang Zhu Wen.
Emperor Liang Zhu Wen particularly favored his daughters-in-law, especially Dark Emperor Zhu Yougui’s wife, Lady Zhang.
The Xuanming Sect was established by Zhu Yougui on the orders of Zhu Wen to counter Prince Qi’s Huan Yin Sect and Prince Jin’s Tongwen Pavilion.
However, over the years, due to Zhu Wen’s dislike for Zhu Yougui, Zhu Yougui also harbored hostility towards Zhu Wen.
The Xuanming Sect was thus an important safeguard for Zhu Yougui’s future endeavor to seize the throne.
However, Zhu Yougui did not know that his subordinates, the Shui Huo Judges, were Zhu Wen’s n.
And ng Po was an operative of Yuan Tiangang.
In the entire Xuanming Sect, barely a few were truly loyal to him!
"It’s said that in recent days, Prince Qi has been heavily promoting a Divine Spirit known as the Lord of Hongng and is making the people of Qi Country worship this Divine Spirit!" ng Po, leaning on a cane and hunched over, stood behind the Dark Emperor and spoke indifferently.
In the Xuanming Sect, her status was second only to Dark Emperor Zhu Yougui.
When Dark Emperor Zhu Yougui was not present, she took charge of all affairs of the Xuanming Sect.
Beneath her were the Shui Huo Judges, Yang Yan and Yang Miao.
Then ca the Five Great Yama Kings and Black and White Impermanence.
At this mont, a Xuanming Sect disciple rushed in, hastily reporting, "Report! Your Imperial Majesty, ng Po, the Empress of the Huan Yin Sect is leading her forces to attack us!"
"What? That woman dares to co to the Xuanming Sect headquarters and act recklessly? She’s courting death!" Zhu Yougui was startled, then a hideous grin spread across his face; he was greatly pleased.
Outside, he might not be able to do anything to Empress Shui Yunji.
But this was the Xuanming Sect headquarters.
It was filled with experts.
And he was personally presiding.
This ti, he was determined to ensure Empress Shui Yunji would not leave alive.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
ARGH! ARGH! ARGH!
Accompanied by screams, Xuanming Sect disciples were sent flying one after another, landing on the ground, already dead.
Empress Shui Yunji walked in gracefully, accompanied by the Nine Heavens Saintesses of the Huan Yin Sect, such as Brahman Heaven, Miaocheng Tian, and Xuan Jingtian.
"Li Maozhen, you are truly bold to break into the Xuanming Sect. Do you really think the Xuanming Sect is undefended?" Dark Emperor Zhu Yougui glowered at Empress Shui Yunji, his expression dark.
It was no secret to him that Empress Shui Yunji and Prince Qi Li Maozhen were the sa person.
As Zhu Yougui’s chilly voice echoed, the grand hall of the Xuanming Sect seed shrouded by a layer of shadow, and the surrounding Xuanming Sect mbers trembled in fear, as if walking on thin ice.
Despite Zhu Yougui’s small stature, resembling a three-year-old child, he was far from weak.
His cultivation level had reached the peak of the Big Heavenly Position, and he was known for being ruthless, crafty, and deceitful, stopping at nothing to achieve his goals.
The title "Dark Emperor" was not earned for nothing.
"Truly pitiful and tragic!" With her long legs and tall, slender figure, Empress Shui Yunji looked down disdainfully at the diminutive figure before her.
He was probably not even as tall as her knees.
For the sake of his father Zhu Wen’s imperial ambition, Zhu Yougui had cultivated himself into this state, and in the end, even sent his wife to serve Zhu Wen.
Yet after all that, Zhu Wen still disliked him, even despised him, treating him not as a son but as a monster.
It was truly a pathetic existence.
"You bitch, you’re seeking death!" Hearing this, Zhu Yougui, enraged and humiliated, instantly exploded.
He hated it most when others mocked his physique. The Jiu You Mysterious Heavenly Divine Skill activated, and Zhu Yougui thrust a palm towards Empress Shui Yunji.
An ominous and terrifying aura enveloped the grand hall, and nurous experts felt as if they were plunged into an ice cave.
Previously, Shui Yunji might have been wary of Zhu Yougui. But now...
THUMP.
With a casual palm strike from the Empress, Zhu Yougui, who had charged forward quickly, was sent flying back even faster.
His petite body slamd heavily against a stone pillar of the great hall. Blood spurted from his mouth, and his eyes were wide with shock and disbelief.
"How is this possible?"
These words did not co from Zhu Yougui, but from the Shui Huo Judges Yang Yan and Yang Miao, as well as ng Po.
As high-ranking mbers of the Xuanming Sect, they were well aware of Zhu Yougui’s strength.
This was an expert at the peak of the Big Heavenly Position.
And yet, he was gravely injured by a single move?
ng Po, in particular, knew that to gravely injure an expert like Zhu Yougui with a single frontal attack would likely require soone of Yuan Tiangang’s caliber.
"Impossible! How can you be this strong?" Zhu Yougui staggered to his feet, his small eyes filled with viciousness and madness.
"Die!" Empress Shui Yunji wasted no words. The Purple Cloud Sword unsheathed in an instant.
SWISH!
With a flash of sword light, Zhu Yougui’s head flew into the air.
His eyes widened, filled with unwillingness.
I didn’t think the Empress’s strength was so terrifying! I must hurry back and report to the Bad Leader!
ng Po also possessed the strength of a Big Heavenly Position, but she had no intention of fighting to the death for the Xuanming Sect.
She was a Buliangren.
She was rely an undercover agent in the Xuanming Sect.
Now that the Xuanming Sect was about to be destroyed, she naturally wanted to run away.
"Shi Yao, where do you think you’re going? To find the Bad Leader?" Just as Shi Yao prepared to flee, Empress Shui Yunji’s indifferent voice sounded.
Simultaneously, a token was tossed before her.
"The Leader’s token!"
Shi Yao was initially surprised that Empress Shui Yunji had seen through her identity, but upon seeing Yuan Tiangang’s token, she instantly understood. Yuan Tiangang must have told Empress Shui Yunji her identity.
Seeing the token was as good as seeing the person himself.
Kneeling on one knee, ng Po respectfully said, "Buliangren Shi Yao pays respects to the Leader!"
「anwhile.」
「Journey to the West’s World.」
The vast and towering Starry Sky Altar had been completed, with countless stars twinkling. The Great Sage, Sun Wukong, stood at the very front, feeling sowhat excited.
Beside him was the God’s Kingdom hero, Zen Silver Gauze.
Behind them were the Immortal Gods of the Heavenly Court led by the Jade Emperor.
Venerable Lord Taishang, Empress Mother of the West, Taibai Jinxing, Tota Heavenly King, Nezha, Yang Jian, the Four Duty Gods, the Five Directions Jiedi, the Six Ding and Six Jia, the Seven Lords of the Big Dipper, the Eight Immortals, the Nine Luminaries, the Twelve Fundantal Stars, the Twenty-Eight Mansions, and the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals...
Besides the Immortal Gods of the Heavenly Court, other great Powers from the Three Realms were present, such as Lord Zhenyuan and Elder Minghe.
I wonder what I will receive for offering my Yuantu and Abi swords and the Karmic Fire Red Lotus in sacrifice? I hope I won’t be disappointed! Elder Minghe felt sowhat uneasy. This was his entire fortune, all of which he had now offered as sacrifices due to Sun Wukong’s persuasion.
He wasn’t the only one feeling uneasy.
Lord Zhenyuan brought out his Life Fruit Tree.
The Empress Mother of the West offered not only the Seven Fairy Maidens but also three thousand Flat Peach Trees.
"The ritual begins." Sun Wukong stood amidst the stars, his excited voice bood.
As his voice fell, all the believers felt their spirits lift.
It was finally beginning.
One after another, sacrifices were brought to the altar.
There were Venerable Lord Taishang’s Vajra, the Purple Golden Gourd, the Golden Rope, the Golden-Winged Dapeng’s Yin Yang Two Qi Bottle, and Princess Tie Shan’s Banana Leaf Fan...
Zen Silver Gauze also presented Zhunti and Jieyin, whom Sun Wukong had captured, along with all the Buddhas of Mount Ling, to the altar.
Then ca a procession of Demons, Immortals...
