Back in the great hall, Ye Changge was very excited.
He immediately summoned everyone.
"Young Master, did you call us over because you have something good to share?"
Aotian asked excitedly.
As far as he was concerned, whenever Ye Changge summoned them, it had to be to share something good.
There were only so many people in the forbidden zone, after all. He believed there could be no other reason besides sharing things.
"Please follow me."
Soon, they reached a large door and pushed it open.
What greeted their eyes were cultivation resources shimmering with all kinds of treasured light.
"Everyone, each of you can take ten things from here that will help you."
"Holy shit, Young Master, did you go robbing people? Even the Sword Sect, Saber Sect, Artifact Sect, and Pill Sect combined probably don't have this many cultivation resources!"
Looking at the heavenly treasures, pills, weapons, cultivation methods, martial techniques, and assorted materials piled into a thousand-meter-high mountain, they could scarcely imagine what faction he had robbed.
If someone said all of this belonged to the Primordial Forbidden Zone, they certainly would not believe it.
"Do you want them or not? If not, forget it."
Ye Changge could not be bothered to explain.
Hearing that, none of them wanted to waste any more words. They hurried to pick out things that suited them.
Soon, Aotian and the others had selected what they needed.
"Dugu Jian, I appoint you the forbidden zone's resource guardian elder. You may distribute the resources here as you see fit."
"Yes, Young Master."
Dugu Jian liked peace and quiet to begin with, so a position guarding resources suited him perfectly.
Besides, his Sword Twenty-Three had already reached the pinnacle, and he still needed to devote himself to comprehending Sword Twenty-Four.
After the arrangements were made, a tremendous crash sounded outside.
Then a voice rang out as terrifying soul power poured toward them.
"You vermin of the Primordial Forbidden Zone, get out here!"
The icy voice was like the arrival of doomsday.
Then terrifying imperial pressure swept across the nine heavens and ten lands.
"Holy shit, what terrifying imperial pressure! Has a Quasi-Emperor made a move?"
"No, wait. This presence actually carries a strong trace of soul power. Could it be the Soul Hall?"
"What kind of faction is this Primordial Forbidden Zone? They actually dared provoke the Soul Hall? Do they have a death wish? That's the only faction to have revealed a Quasi-Emperor so far!"
"I wonder which unlucky faction is going to suffer this time."
Countless experts discussed it incessantly, their faces filled with shock.
Experts from all the major factions began heading toward the Primordial Forbidden Zone.
"Insolence!"
Yagyu Tajima no Kami shot into the sky with an icy expression, charging at the person who had spoken.
Endless god-slaying Sword Qi enveloped his body. At that moment, he was like a god of slaughter, terrifying beyond measure.
Clang! Clang!
Without a trace of emotion, Yagyu struck directly. The Cherry Blossom Saber erupted with terrifying imperial pressure, and he instantly began fighting the Soul Hall expert.
In an instant, heaven and earth lost their color, and the sun and moon lost their light.
Rumbling explosions rang out incessantly in the sky.
"A Quasi-Emperor! Who exactly are you? How can you possess such terrifying strength without our Soul Hall knowing about you?"
The black-clad figure's face was filled with shock.
She had never imagined she would encounter a Quasi-Emperor here, let alone one who wielded a saber. His Saber Qi was incomparably sharp, and every move, every stroke, was dangerous.
"You dared run wild in our Primordial Forbidden Zone. You have brought death upon yourself."
As he spoke, he unleashed Snow Falls Upon the Mortal World.
This move was exceedingly powerful. Before the saber emerged, snowflakes had already begun falling around them.
The scene was beautiful, yet extremely eerie.
An air of slaughter swirled around them, so terrifying that it had already surpassed the realm of a Quasi-Emperor.
Once the saber struck, the black-clad woman would surely die.
"Damn it, how can you be so strong?"
Naturally, the black-clad woman sensed the threat of death. Cursing furiously, she produced a curved saber that shimmered with silver light and exuded supreme pressure.
It was clearly a Quasi-Emperor weapon, and one of the finest at that.
And because of the special nature of her cultivation, she delivered a slash.
The two peerless attacks collided.
She was actually only driven back a hundred meters rather than sent flying by the slash. Yagyu was somewhat surprised at the sight.
"Woman, you're the first to dare run wild in the Primordial Forbidden Zone. I won't kill you today, but I can't say the same for the Young Master."
Yagyu spoke coldly.
As his words fell, he unleashed Dominate the World with a slash.
The terrifying killing force actually carried a presence that targeted the soul.
The woman dared not be careless. She immediately employed a special secret art, and blood-red light began burning all over her body.
Clearly, she had begun burning her lifespan to unleash a powerful trump card.
"Woman, you can't die yet."
At that critical moment, Ye Changge appeared.
He neutralized the slash of Dominate the World while also interrupting the woman's technique.
With a grasp of his hand, Ye Changge seized the woman and took her away.
Yagyu vanished as well.
The scene instantly fell silent.
"Let go of me! I am a special envoy of the Soul Hall! If you dare do anything to me, the Soul Hall will never let you off!"
Ye Changge did not answer. With a wave of his hand, her black clothing vanished, revealing a beauty dressed in white, her long hair flowing.
"You should be five hundred and thirty-five years old, right?"
"None of your business."
"But you've had a child, so you should count as a mature married woman now."
As Ye Changge spoke, he actually began drooling.
A mature married woman-the type Boss Cao liked best, and his own favorite too.
As the ancients said: in youth, one knows not the pleasures of a married woman, mistaking a young maiden for a treasure.
"Tell me what your Soul Hall is planning."
As he spoke, Ye Changge directly sealed her cultivation, and the woman's expression instantly changed.
Her face filled with terror. Only now did she realize just how terrifying the man before her was.
Someone who could seal her cultivation without a sound had to be a Great Emperor at the very least.
"Not talking, are you?"
Smack!
He stepped forward and slapped her. Before the woman could react, she felt a slap land on her buttocks. But the scream she let out was irresistibly enticing.
"Brat, kill me or cut me to pieces. Do as you please."
"That temperament-you like it."
His figure flashed as he spoke, and he pinned her against the wall, holding both her hands. A delicate fragrance wafted into his face.
Her face instantly flushed, and her breathing grew heavier.
"What are you going to do...?"
Before she could finish, her lips were sealed.
"Mmph! Mmph!"
The woman made muffled sounds as he kissed her, her hands beginning to struggle. But with her cultivation sealed, she could not break free at all.
A minute later, Ye Changge released her.
"If you don't want your son to find out about this scene, you can keep quiet."
As he spoke, Ye Changge moved to kiss her again.
At that moment, the woman panicked. If her son learned of this, how could she, his mother, have the face to confront him?
Afterward, she confessed everything.
It turned out her name was Wang Xue, and she was the Soul Hall master's secret lover. An accident had led to the two of them having a child, and this child was also the reason for her visit: to take away the reincarnated empress, have her come out, and, if they refused to release her, resort to force.
Instead, she herself had been captured.
"What do you want the reincarnated empress for?"
"To seize her memories."
Ye Changge felt that was about enough. He scooped Wang Xue into his arms and appeared on a large bed.
"What are you doing? I've told you everything. Can't you let me go?"
"It's fine. With nothing to do today, I'll listen to songs in the pleasure house."
Hearing this, the woman's face flushed crimson, and tears fell uncontrollably.
