"I see!"
Upon receiving the news, Su Xiuyi remained calm and continued drinking her tea, Ma Mian quietly left the tea room.
······
A thousand miles away from the imperial city of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there stands a magnificent city.
Like a ferocious beast lurking in the endless mountains, it has cut off the road to the capital. This city is called Duanhun City, and its ruler is an elderly Saint Realm of the royal family.
The Duanhun City gets its name from the fact that no foreign race has ever crossed it. It is an insurmountable natural barrier for the Great Zhou Imperial Clan, a protective shield for the capital. Even Sage who wants to invade the capital must be Duanhun here.
The Sage rules over the Duanhun City is named Duanhun, and he wields the royal Divine Artifact of the State, the Soul-Severing Sword.
A figure descended from the top of Duanhun City and knelt before the gloomy old man on the city wall.
"City Lord, the Star Demon Clan and their traitorous army are stationed a hundred miles away. The Star Demon Saints and Demon Emperor Hu Qingyun seem to be planning to use their Sage strength to directly storm the capital!"
This figure was a scout.
"Lord Duanhun, shall we request aid from His Human Emperor?"
Some Saint Entry experts spoke with solemn expressions.
Looking at these terrified people, Duanhun's lips curled into a sneer.
"What are you afraid of? Just wait."
"They have a path to heaven but choose not to take it, and they have no gate to hell but choose to barge in."
" Your Human Emperor, you were already planning to eliminate the Demon Race. Isn't it a good thing that they've delivered themselves to your doorstep?"
"Gentlemen, there is no need to worry. His Human Emperor has made arrangements!"
Hearing Duanhun's words and seeing his disdainful gaze, the hearts that had been hanging in Duanhun began to ease slightly.
······
A hundred miles away, in the central command tent.
Hu Qingyun and Su Yun sat cross-legged in the center, with a Human Race expert sitting on their left and a Star Demon expert sitting on their right.
Dressed in white, the Great Sage Lutian looked at Hu Qingyun and respectfully said, "Your Majesty, a hundred miles away is the Duanhun City Duanhun City is the Elder Duanhun of Broken Souls, who wields the Divine Artifact of the State state, the Soul-Severing Sword Souls. The Old Man of Elder Duanhun ' strength is extremely terrifying. Three thousand years ago, he was already at the third level of the Sage. With the Spiritual Qi about to recover, his strength is likely to be even more formidable."
"Moreover, Su Tianlong remained remarkably calm despite knowing we were coming with great force, which suggests he might be setting a trap for us."
As soon as the Great Sage Lutian finished speaking, Su Yun took a deep breath and said in a solemn tone, " Su Tianlong is an extremely domineering person. He will never tolerate anyone trampling on his dignity. It is almost impossible for us to easily kill our way to the capital."
"If I'm not mistaken, this Duanhun City will be our first battle, a battle where life and death are uncertain."
"This could be the decisive battle."
" Su Tianlong severely damaged the direct line of the royal family before ascending to the throne of the Human Emperor. We cannot easily reap the fruits of his victory; everything depends on the Demon Emperor."
As the two voices fell, everyone's and even the demons' gazes fell on Hu Qingyun's face.
Su Yun, being a direct descendant of the royal family, naturally understands Su Tianlong better than they do.
Feeling all eyes on her, Hu Qingyun's eyes betrayed no emotion.
After taking a sip of tea, he said calmly, "Even if it's a dragon's den or a tiger's lair, I will venture in. Su Tianlong will die."
"The hatred for my husband's murder is a blood feud that Undying fought to the death!"
"No matter what traps Duanhun City may hold, those who stand in my way will be intercepted and killed."
At this moment, Hu Qingyun seemed to have transformed into a witch.
"Why!"
At this moment, the Great Sage Lutian took a deep breath and stopped speaking. How could he not know that Hu Qingyun was blinded by hatred and had already become a demon, with demonic roots deeply ingrained? Without killing Su Tianlong, these demonic roots could not be eradicated; this was an obsession.
Therefore, at that moment, the Great Sage Lutian fell silent.
Moreover, she knew that Hu Qingyun's strength was unfathomable at this moment. Even he, who was at the Yin-Yang Realm, had seen through Hu Qingyun, so he was not without the strength to fight her.
"Today, we'll rest for the night. Tomorrow, we'll storm the capital and personally kill Su Tianlong."
After Hu Qingyun finished speaking, she disappeared from the tent as if she had never been there.
In the void, Hu Qingyun's figure appeared. In front of her, Dharma Power condensed into a table, and tea set appeared in front of her. At the same time, a lifelike wooden carving appeared beside her, which was the likeness of Su Xiuyi.
Hu Qingyun looked at the wood carving, a smile appearing on her lips.
"My husband, tomorrow we will be able to take revenge. I am so incompetent. I have spent fifty-three years waiting for this day, making you wait for fifty-three years."
"I will come to find you after tomorrow."
" Su Yun is a good lad. He's a survivor from your lineage, ambitious, and will surely be a Human Emperor. My Star Demon Clan swore a blood oath to serve the Holy Shenghuang to the death. Back then, to ensure the Star Demon lineage and the Human Race would always be of one mind, the Holy Shenghuang divided thirty percent of the Human Race's fortune and bestowed it upon the Star Demon lineage as a betrothal gift for our marriage."
" Su Tianlong's scheming against us likely stems from his knowledge of this secret. He intends to annihilate the Star Demon Clan and reclaim the thirty percent of their destiny power."
"I have extracted that thirty percent of the power of destiny and bestowed it upon Su Yun. Su Yun, you will not be disappointed."
······
Beneath the Myriad Text Academy, in front of the Demon God Grotto-Heaven, Su Xiuyi's eyes were filled with anticipation.
Su Xiuyi took a step forward, her body entering the Demon God Grotto-Heaven.
Inside the Demon God Grotto-Heaven, Su Xiuyi was overjoyed.
"Um?"
"This place is very peculiar; it has such abundant Spiritual Qi."
The moment she entered, Su Xiuyi's eyes lit up.
This place is indeed a Grotto-Heaven.
"Roar!"
However, just as Su Xiuyi had finished thinking about it, a terrifying beastly roar rang in Su Xiuyi ears.
At the same time, an excited voice resounded through the void.
" Human Race! Human Race have entered! Foolish humans, you've actually opened the Demon God Grotto-Heaven!"
The moment the voice rang out, the temperature between heaven and earth suddenly rose sharply, and an enormous firebird appeared in Su Xiuyi's eyes. This firebird was incredibly huge, with a body that was thousands of meters long, and its whole body was wrapped in flames, as if it could burn the sky and destroy the earth.
" The Early Celestial Person?"
The moment Su Xiuyi saw the firebird, she sensed its presence.
However, Su Xiuyi didn't take this kind of strength seriously. What Su Xiuyi was looking forward to was the sign-in reward after killing the opponent.
" Demon-Suppressing Art!"
As the firebird approached, Su Xiuyi activated the Demon-Suppressing Art. Within Su Xiuyi's Sea of Will, Spirit Character combined to form a talisman.
The talisman unleashed terrifying power.
The Firebird, who was originally extremely excited, suddenly felt a look of terror in her demonic eyes the moment Su Xiuyi unleashed her power. She realized that her strength had been suppressed by Su Xiuyi, and she was now only able to unleash the power of the Yin-Yang Realm.
"Die!"
With a flick of her finger, Su Xiuyi unleashed a terrifying blade intent that cleaved the Fire Sparrow's body in two in mid-air.
Blood splattered across the sky, and the great demons who had come excitedly instantly stopped in their tracks.
