The Empress Summons
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Although the Ancient Spirit Emperor was often hungry over the years, He had unknowingly beco a little picky.
In those days, whenever He saw anything with divinity, His eyes would widen, and an overwhelming sense of hunger would engulf Him. Without hesitation and without any pickiness, He would devour it in one gulp.
Regardless of how others perceived the taste, He found it suprely delicious.
As a result, His eating manner was quite unseemly.
But now… He actually looked down on this puppet from the bottom of His heart.
After all, His previous al was the flesh and blood of Crimson Goddess.
Compared to the flesh and blood of Crimson Goddess, this puppet was no different from mosquito at.
Hence, the Ancient Spirit Emperor felt very complicated when it ca to Xu Qing. Although He cursed at Xu Qing not to co again, He was still growling inwardly.
If Xu Qing really didn’t co, He would feel so regret.
These complicated thoughts made the Ancient Spirit Emperor even more annoyed. At this mont, when He spoke, the entire Ancient Spirit World was rumbling. Under His control, a huge vortex appeared above Xu Qing and the other two out of thin air, emitting a huge suction force that affected the world.
Old Ninth didn’t mind such treatnt. He took the thirteen strands of imperial qi and walked toward the vortex without saying a word.
Erniu also didn’t care about being kicked out like this; he was used to it. At that mont, he licked his lips, his eyes gleaming with a dark light, and flew into the vortex.
As for Xu Qing, he naturally maintained his manners. Before leaving, he bowed to the Ancient Spirit Emperor.
“In that case, I won’t disturb Your Majesty’s secluded cultivation anymore. I wish Your Majesty a smooth future and for you to co out of seclusion as soon as possible.”
It was unknown how much sincerity these words held, but when He heard Xu Qing say them, although the Ancient Spirit Emperor felt frustrated, He had to admit that Xu Qing had been very polite to Him from the start.
Compared to the boorish Old Ninth who drew his sword the mont they t and the idiot with a sly expression who made Him worry about losing His treasures, Xu Qing’s respect was very obvious.
“Your Majesty, the token from before has lost its effect, and this junior might encounter a better sacrifice in the future. If I can’t send it in ti because of the token…”
Xu Qing looked at the Ancient Spirit Emperor. He didn’t want to give up on such a useful combat strength so easily.
The Ancient Spirit Emperor fell silent. After a long ti, He let out a cold snort. In an instant, the suction force of the vortex above Xu Qing soared and the repulsive force from this world rose even more.
Seeing this, although Xu Qing felt so regret, he didn’t force it. His body swayed as he headed straight for the vortex.
Just as he entered the vortex and was about to disappear, a token ca from the void and flew into the vortex. The next instant, the vortex rumbled and disappeared from the Ancient Spirit World.
The entire Ancient Spirit World fell silent.
In the end, the Ancient Spirit Emperor still gave out the token.
The huge eyes slowly closed.
However, He didn’t notice that in the silt on the ground of the Ancient Spirit World, among the countless skeletons, there was a small skeleton. At this mont, its eyes revealed a flash of blue light.
There was a blue worm hidden in the skeleton’s bones.
The worm’s body emitted a concealnt power that concealed all its aura.
This was naturally left behind by Erniu.
In the future, this little skeleton would search this world of death bit by bit and find the treasures its main body slled…
Ti flowed by. Half a day later, outside the Wood Spirit Race’s territory, in the sky.
Ninth Grandpa left with Ling’er.
After fusing all thirteen strands of imperial qi into Ling’er’s body, the curse of Ling’er’s bloodline was completely suppressed. There wouldn’t be any problems for the ti being.
Her cultivation base also successfully increased and she began to transition to the Spirit Repository.
Due to the special physique of the Ancient Spirit Race, there was no bottleneck in the improvent of cultivation at this stage, but it required periods of deep sleep.
Right now, wars were erupting everywhere in Wanggu. However, the Moon Offering Region was safer.
After all, most of the powerful races in Wanggu knew that Li Zihua was about to return. Even the holy lands didn’t descend in the Moon Offering Region.
Hence, letting Ling’er return to the Moon Offering Region during her slumber was naturally the best choice.
Originally, Xu Qing was also considering whether he should return to the Moon Offering Region.
However, an imperial edict from the Empress caused Xu Qing’s thoughts to change.
“Summoning the crown prince’s grand tutor, Xu Qing, to return to the human capital. The army of Fenghai County will arrive in three batches.”
Whether due to the past with the human race or the Empress’ actions during his disappearance, after the holy lands descended, small-scale battles frequently erupted in the Fla Moon’s territories and the human race’s Grand Imperial Capital Region.
Xu Qing had no reason to refuse the summoning.
Hence, after watching Ninth Grandpa’s figure gradually leave, Xu Qing looked at his eldest senior brother beside him.
Erniu didn’t care about Old Ninth’s departure or the Empress’ imperial decree. At that mont, all his attention was on the worm he had left in the Ancient Spirit World.
A while later, Erniu’s eyes lit up.
‘I can sense it. Haha.’
Erniu was excited.
With just a glance, Xu Qing knew that his eldest senior brother must have made arrangents in the world of the Ancient Spirit Emperor. Hence, he reminded him.
“Senior Brother, I’ve been to the Ancient Spirit Emperor’s death world many tis.”
Erniu looked at Xu Qing.
“Previously, I didn’t sense much, but this ti… Maybe it’s because of the difference in cultivation or maybe it’s because my body is different, I sensed sothing strange.”
Xu Qing pondered and spoke in a low voice.
“It seems that the Ancient Spirit World I went to this ti… isn’t the sa place as the one I went to previously!”
“In fact, when I recall the previous few tis, it seems to be like this every ti.”
“I suspect that there might be more than one Ancient Spirit World!”
“There might be more than one giant snake.”
“Also, in the thick fog of the Spirit Abyss, my divine perception detected an ancient aura and gaze that carried deep malice.”
Xu Qing rarely spoke so much. He was really worried that his Eldest Senior Brother’s madness might lead to deviations without accurate information.
If that happened, it wouldn’t be madness but having a death wish.
When Erniu heard this, he fell into deep thought.
“That’s logical. If I were the Ancient Spirit Emperor, I would have prepared many worlds, mixing the real and fake within.”
“Alright, the worm I left there will be even more careful.”
“However, Little Qing, there’s indeed a treasure there. Although I don’t know what it is exactly, I feel that… that treasure is definitely very useful to you and !”
“I have to explore properly…”
Erniu instinctively licked his lips.
Xu Qing nodded. He knew that although Eldest Senior Brother was crazy, he wasn’t stupid. Hence, he didn’t say anything else and his gaze landed in the direction of Fenghai County.
The pagoda was fast but it naturally couldn’t compare to teleportation when heading to the human race’s capital. After all, the journey covered many large regions.
In addition, before he headed to the human capital, Xu Qing still had sothing to deal with in Fenghai County.
Hence, he didn’t continue to stay in the Wood Spirit Race. After bidding farewell to the Wood Spirit Race, he rode the Holy Heaven Pagoda and headed straight for Fenghai County.
Xu Qing’s return was a major event in Fenghai County, and naturally, there were many reunions and greetings among old acquaintances.
For example, Marquis Yao, Qingqin, his old acquaintances from the Sword Holding Palace, Yao Yunhui…
Moreover, to activate the inter-region teleportation array, it would take ti to prepare and check everything. After all, Fenghai County wouldn’t allow any accidents to occur in Xu Qing’s teleportation.
Hence, he and Erniu needed to stay in Fenghai County for a night.
That night, during the first half, various representatives of Fenghai County reported to Xu Qing. As the night progressed and everyone departed, Xu Qing also left the county residence.
He appeared in the forr Prison Departnt.
As he walked here, Xu Qing felt as though he was walking through ti. The scenes of him being a Pawn here in the past surfaced in his mind. Among them, the one who appeared the most was the old Palace Master, Kong Liangxiu.
Finally, Xu Qing arrived at the bottom of the Prison Departnt. It was also the ruins of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether’s temporary palace back then. At the sa ti, it was also the resting place of the fishbone god before It died.
This place was now completely under the control of Fenghai County. So areas had been modified, like palaces at the edge.
So areas had been explored, such as the hall where the immortal arts were located. The immortal arts inside were now an important foundation of Fenghai County.
So areas were turned into forbidden places, such as the phoenix hall.
Xu Qing’s destination was this hall.
Step by step, he walked toward the phoenix hall and stared at this mysterious place.
Back then, he had lost a portion of his mories here.
Later on, he finally found out that this hall was the place where the daughter of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether died. It was also the place where the Clear Purple Mystic Lantern was stored.
It was also… the place where Zi Xuan was accepting the inheritance.
Standing outside the hall, the first thing Xu Qing sensed was the aura of the Diamond Sect’s ancestor.
Almost instantly, the iron stick where the Diamond Sect’s ancestor was flew out from the bricks on the hall. After transforming into You Lingzi’s figure, he knelt down and bowed to Xu Qing.
“Greetings, Master!”
The Diamond Sect’s ancestor had an excited expression.
The shadow under Xu Qing also fluctuated for a mont, transforming into an eye that examined its mortal enemy.
“How’s Zi Xuan?”
Xu Qing calmly spoke.
“Master, after the madam entered the main hall, she hasn’t co out. During this ti, I guarded this place and didn’t allow anyone to approach.”
“In addition, before the madam entered the main hall, she said that if Master cos here, don’t forcefully enter this hall. Give her so ti. No matter what difficulties there are, she can resolve them herself. After she succeeds, she will look for you.”
The Diamond Sect’s ancestor hurriedly spoke.
When Xu Qing heard this, his gaze landed on the main hall. His divine sense couldn’t spread in here and he could only sense that the fluctuations inside were in a stable state.
Hence, he retracted his divine perception and silently sat outside the main hall. He then closed his eyes and sat cross-legged in ditation.
The night passed.
That night, the Diamond Sect’s ancestor was solemn and Little Shadow was vigilant. The two of them had a million thoughts in their minds as they thought of all kinds of thods to target each other in the future.
However, when they occasionally looked at each other, their expressions were different. Little Shadow was filled with hostility, while the Diamond Sect’s ancestor smiled.
It was only when the night lted in the sky of Fenghai County and the sun rose that Xu Qing opened his eyes. After looking at the phoenix hall again, he turned and left.
An hour later, under the respectful farewell of the representatives of the various parties in Fenghai County, the Fenghai County’s teleportation formation rumbled and circulated. Xu Qing and Erniu’s figures beca blurry in the formation before disappearing..
