The Empress, clothed in a bright yellow robe, wearing a phoenix crown and veiled, stood at the gate of the palace and said in a light voice, "I have detected so fluctuations from the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron, open the doors imdiately."
"Yes."
The Heavenly Martial Guards did not say much and imdiately opened the doors of the Tianwu Palace.
Managing the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron was a power gifted by the God Emperor to the Empress. After all, there was still a seal on the cauldron, and no one except the Crown Prince could open it.
The Empress entered the Tianwu Palace.
Inside the Tianwu Palace was extrely spacious, with only the gilded cauldron floating in the half-space of the hall apart from the Array's seals.
The massive golden cauldron, tens of zhang in size, emitted a strange aura faintly linked to the fate of the Great Yong Kingdom.
This was the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron.
She quietly watched the golden cauldron, silently waiting.
According to the ti she and Lin Yue agreed on, the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron should voluntarily unlock its seal around this ti to reclaim the nation's essence.
Actually, she was well aware that her standing guard like this, as if she already knew a Commandery Prince or Princess would fall, raised quite the suspicion.
But...
"Let's call it repaying his debt..." she thought to herself silently.
Ti passed—
Suddenly, the vast golden cauldron within the hall exploded with a strange fluctuation.
"Here it cos!" The Empress's beautiful eyes brightened slightly.
In the next mont, the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron trembled slightly, and the runes that perated the void on the cauldron grew bright. The lid of the cauldron slowly lifted from the body, revealing the surging golden light inside.
Imdiately afterward, a mass of golden light flew into the hall from the outside with astonishing speed.
Within this golden light was a black royal robe, purely condensed and manifested from the nation's essence!
"Did they truly kill a Commandery Prince or Princess?" The Empress's heart trembled, and she swiftly rose, taking advantage of the lifting of the seal and the opening of the lid, she extended her Divine Thought into the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron to search carefully.
In the past, she was the Holy Daughter of the Human Clan and had once presided over the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron, so she was naturally extrely familiar with it.
Now, as her Divine Thought swept through it, she imdiately discovered a remnant soul inside the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron!
"A remnant soul with no consciousness? It seems not to be the main soul."
The Empress imdiately noticed the peculiarities of this remnant soul, "Such pure soul power... the Primordial Spirit is unbroken? Could it be the remnant soul of one who proved their path as a strong being?"
Without much thought, she imdiately extracted the remnant soul and quickly took out a small Jade Bottle crafted from the Netherworld Soul Jade, swiftly placed the remnant soul inside, and then stored it away before she floated back and away.
At that mont, with a clang, after the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron reabsorbed the nation's essence that had taken the form of a black royal robe, the lid also closed again, and the nearby Array seals healed.
Her gown fluttering, the Empress landed on the ground, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.
It went more smoothly than she had expected; she had thought retrieving the remnant soul would be troubleso, but she had managed to secure it easily.
"Jue, the debt I owe you, I will repay slowly..."
Taking a deep breath, the Empress walked towards the exit of the hall.
Just at that mont—
An overwhelmingly terrifying pressure suddenly descended, filling the entire Tianwu Palace like the endless might of heaven, causing even the essence of heaven and earth to solidify, and even the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron to tremble slightly.
The Empress stopped in her tracks, her pupils constricting slightly.
At that mont, a tall man clothed in a Mysterious Robe and Crown, wearing a multicolored diadem, stood in front of her.
Beneath the gently swaying nine-tasseled diadem were eyes as detached as the heavens themselves, and on his exceedingly handso face, not a trace of emotion showed as he silently watched her.
The Crown Prince!
"What a coincidence," the Empress said calmly, "Has Your Highness also co to check on the anomaly within the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron?"
The Crown Prince watched her calmly as well, speaking without a hint of emotion,
"Empress, hand over the remnant soul you took from the Heavenly Martial Divine Cauldron."
