She spent almost every day consumed by hatred, wishing she could kill Gu Chen immediately!
At night, Shi Mengying would even wake up from nightmares of her kin being brutally slaughtered.
All of this would turn to ash and smoke as Gu Chen was consumed by the Phoenix Spirit Fire.
Now that Gu Chen was dead, Shi Mengying's next goal was to find her kin.
And then prevent the tragedy of her kin being massacred!
"Sisters, I'm sorry."
"Gu Chen died by my hand first."
"Fortunately, the Phoenix Spirit Fire will make him die painfully, so you don't need to worry."
Shi Mengying's mind conjured the images of her other eight sisters.
In their past lives, they were renowned Empresses, yet they shared a single common goal.
That was to kill Gu Chen!
Now that her great revenge was achieved, Shi Mengying felt a weight lifted from her heart.
But just as Shi Mengying was about to ascend the crystal steps and claim the treasures of the Third Divine Hall.
She suddenly noticed something was amiss.
Normally, Gu Chen was just flesh and blood.
Even the Crimson Mane Fierce Lion from moments ago had been completely burned away in less than a few minutes.
But how long had it been now? Why was the Phoenix Spirit Fire still burning?
Realizing something was wrong, Shi Mengying immediately stared vigilantly at the spot where Gu Chen stood.
She immediately activated her Internal Energy to sense, and the result was that Shi Mengying felt an extremely terrifying fact.
That Gu Chen still had signs of life!
East Desolation Commandery, Cangshan Sword Sect.
Gu Youwei raised her right hand, and Chiling within the stone wall instantly felt the summons!
Seeing this, He Changsong's expression turned grim.
He couldn't understand why the Spirit Sword would react to Gu Youwei's command.
Thinking of this, He Changsong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he muttered, "This Spirit Sword is called Chiling, right?"
As the Sect Master of the Cangshan Sword Sect, He Changsong had naturally heard of Chiling's name.
Chiling was originally one of the Four Divine Swords from the ancient primordial era.
He Changsong had already felt that the Spirit Sword in the stone wall was unusual before.
However, it was only today, from Gu Youwei's mouth, that he learned this Spirit Sword was named Chiling.
"Interesting."
He Changsong murmured. He didn't know why Gu Youwei knew Chiling, nor why Gu Youwei would react to Chiling.
But He Changsong knew that as long as he captured Gu Youwei and interrogated her slowly, all these mysteries could be solved.
At that time, He Changsong would not only win the beauty's heart but also directly obtain the Divine Sword Chiling.
Thinking of this, the corners of He Changsong's mouth curved upwards, and his face wore a smug expression.
"What are you still standing around for?"
"Hurry up and capture her!"
The Four Great Protectors unleashed their killing moves, and the area around Xuanjian Pond was instantly plunged into darkness!
The killing intent in Gu Youwei's eyes grew stronger.
The thing she hated most was deception.
In her past life, Gu Chen had deceived her and stolen her Heavenly Dao Bone.
In this life, He Changsong had deceived her and attempted to tarnish her purity.
Gu Youwei could not forgive any of this!
Thinking of this, Chiling's reaction within the stone wall became even more intense.
To the point that the stone wall binding Chiling began to show fine cracks!
He Changsong couldn't help but feel a little worried, but he still felt relieved.
After all, the entire Xuanjian Pond had already been sealed by him, and Chiling wouldn't be easily taken out.
Moreover, even He Changsong himself couldn't control Chiling back then.
Now, Gu Youwei was just a waste with a cultivation level of the Innate Realm, so it was even more impossible for her to make Chiling move.
But in the next second, a scene appeared that He Changsong would never forget in his life.
Just as the Four Great Protectors were about to capture Gu Youwei.
Chiling directly broke through He Changsong's seal and burst forth from the stone!
At that moment, the entire Xuanjian Pond let out a deafening roar.
A powerful energy directly tore a hole in the sky's clouds!
As if sensing a summons, Chiling flew directly into Gu Youwei's hand.
The instant Gu Youwei and Chiling became one, He Changsong felt an incredibly powerful pressure.
This pressure seemed to traverse the river of time and directly affected him.
If one had to describe it.
It felt like the gaze of a god, sacred and inviolable!
Although the Cangshan Sword Sect's Four Great Protectors all possessed Profound Gang Realm cultivation.
They were utterly unable to withstand the energy ripples emanating from Chiling.
Just being lightly brushed by a ripple sent them flying back dozens of meters!
He Changsong couldn't believe what he was seeing.
He couldn't believe Gu Youwei could ignore the seal and directly summon Chiling!
This caused He Changsong to suddenly have a question in his heart.
What exactly was Gu Youwei's identity!
At this moment, Gu Youwei, holding Chiling, exuded a red, berserk killing aura.
Her eyes were extremely cold. A young disciple from the Cangshan Sword Sect accidentally met Gu Youwei's gaze and was scared to death on the spot!
Gu Youwei was once the Empress, and in this life, she was destined to become the Empress again.
She and Chiling shared an inseparable, innate connection and resonance.
In all of the Three Realms, only Gu Youwei was qualified to wield this Divine Sword!
"Gu Youwei! You have some nerve!"
"Chiling is the sect-protecting Divine Sword of my Cangshan Sword Sect, how can you defile it?"
"You truly don't know the immensity of heaven and earth, you clearly wish to die!"
He Changsong, suppressing the fear brought by the pressure, stared at Gu Youwei and spoke sternly.
However, Gu Youwei merely raised her eyes and met He Changsong's gaze.
In that instant, He Changsong felt his heart skip a beat, so terrified he even forgot to breathe!
Ever since He Changsong reached the Foundation Establishment Realm and became the Sect Master of the Cangshan Sword Sect.
He hadn't felt this way in decades.
As a result, He Changsong had no idea why Gu Youwei possessed such a powerful pressure.
"You, kneel."
Gu Youwei stared intently at He Changsong, her eyes filled with coldness and murderous intent.
Although He Changsong was terrified, his face still showed an expression of displeasure.
This little girl in front of him was supposed to be waiting on the bed for him to dote on and ravage.
Now, relying on the Divine Sword's assistance, she actually expected him to kneel?
It was utterly laughable!
"Gu Youwei, who do you think you are?"
"You are merely a plaything the Gu Family sent me, not even as good as those lowly women in brothels!"
"A born bastard like you should consider it an honor to be favored by me."
"Yet you have the audacity to tell me to kneel? You are simply..."
Before He Changsong could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a sweet, fishy taste surge in his throat.
He didn't pay it much mind at first, but when he tried to speak again, he realized something was wrong.
