"Good!"
Upon hearing Su Xiuyi's words, Dugu Hong immediately replied with a simple "okay."
In Dugu Hong's eyes, Su Xiuyi was everything to him.
It was Dugu Hong's hope.
After leaving the Punishment Hall, Su Xiuyi returned to the Emperor Hall. Once back in the Emperor Hall, Su Xiuyi instructed Luo Yiyi to protect her, saying that she was going into seclusion for a while.
After activating the formation, Su Xiuyi used her supernatural powers to silently leave the Sword Gate with Dugu Hong.
Within the Sword Gate, no one could pinpoint the whereabouts of Su Xiuyi and Dugu Hong.
After leaving the Sword Gate, Su Xiuyi directly tore through the void and used her spatial power. Soon, Su Xiuyi and Dugu Hong appeared in the Sea of Space.
In recent days, Su Xiuyi has sent out many people to search for the forces that ascended after the Ten Thousand Races Ancient Realm, but without any results.
Despite this uncertainty, Su Xiuyi didn't want to wait any longer.
In this world, there is no such thing as 100% control over everything.
"Junior brother, is this the passage to that world?"
Upon seeing the Sea of Space before him, Dugu Hong's face showed shock. Dugu Hong had never imagined that the world Su Xiuyi was born into was related to this Sea of Space Sea of Space was considered a forbidden area by everyone.
The Sea of Space once contained immense spatial power, so much so that even beings at the Immortal King level dared not venture deep into it.
"Good!"
"There is a rift here that leads to the world I was born in."
"Walk!"
Su Xiuyi led Dugu Hong into the Sea of Space. When Su Xiuyi entered the Heavenly Profound Realm from the Sea of Space before, she made some marks. Now, Su Xiuyi's cultivation had become even stronger, and she quickly found the location of the spatial rift.
Su Xiuyi's spatial power is now incredibly strong, and she faces no resistance in this Sea of Space.
It didn't take long for Su Xiuyi to appear in the mountains of the Ten Thousand Races Ancient Realm.
The long-sealed formation slowly opened in that instant.
Soon, figures appeared in the Ten Thousand Races Ancient Realm.
Su Yun, Daoist Tianxuan, and other powerful figures who had followed Su Xiuyi in her departure were incredibly excited to return to the Heavenly Profound Ancient Realm once again.
"Everyone, bring your people to join me as soon as possible."
"At the same time, gather the information we need."
Su Xiuyi's gaze fell on Daoist Tianxuan and the others, and she said calmly.
"Yes, Heavenly Lord!"
One by one, the powerful figures hurriedly bowed and soared into the Space Breaking.
Seeing these people leave, Su Xiuyi slowly raised her head and looked into the void.
A colossal portal appeared in the void.
Su Xiuyi still remembered that when she left, the Dao Sect was just Dao Void, but now, with the passage of time, the Dao Sect has almost become a tangible thing.
Su Xiuyi knew very well that once the illusory Dao Sect image solidified completely, it would be time for the Heavenly Gate to open.
It is also the time when countless powerful beings will descend to slaughter all living beings and offer sacrifices.
"Senior brother, do you have any special connection to this portal?"
"I believe that the forces that exist behind this portal are the very forces that ascended from the Ten Thousand Races Ancient Realm."
"However, it is unknown whether these people are in the Southern Heaven Land."
Su Xiuyi knew very well that although this Dao Sect appeared to be floating in the void, it contained extremely profound spatial power.
Upon hearing Su Xiuyi's words, Dugu Hong instantly closed his eyes, and an incomparably terrifying power spread out towards the portal in the void.
As he continued to sense things, Dugu Hong's eyes narrowed.
An expression of disbelief crossed his face.
Seeing the change in Dugu Hong's expression, Su Xiuyi's expression became serious.
Dugu Hong is now at the Immortal King realm, capable of dominating even the Southern Heaven of the Heavenly Profound Realm. For Dugu Hong Dugu Hong be so solemn, he must have sensed something.
Su Xiuyi did not interrupt Dugu Hong and waited quietly.
After a long while, Dugu Hong slowly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with disbelief.
How is that possible?
"How is that possible?"
Dugu Hong's face was filled with disbelief.
"Senior brother, what exactly did you discover?"
Is there anything wrong with this?
Su Xiuyi became uneasy.
Upon hearing Su Xiuyi's words, Dugu Hong suppressed his shock. "Junior Brother, I sensed some unusual aura behind that portal. That aura should originate from a special force within the Central Heaven Continent."
"It seems that obtaining this treasure is no easy feat."
"However, since we arrived first, perhaps we'll have a chance."
Dugu Hong looked uneasy, but he still gave Su Xiuyi some hope.
" The Central Heaven Continent?"
"I see. No wonder I sent out countless people but couldn't find any information about the myriad races."
"I never imagined that the beings coveting this treasure would originate from the Central Heaven Continent."
" The Central Heaven Continent is not comparable to the Southern Heaven Land. It seems the opponent is very strong. However, our early arrival does not mean we are without a chance."
"Senior brother, let's return to the Great Zhou Imperial Capital first."
As soon as Su Xiuyi finished speaking, she took to the Skysoar and headed towards the Great Zhou Imperial Capital.
The moment Su Xiuyi and the others arrived at the Great Zhou Imperial Capital, they looked at the enormous capital city before them with expressions of complete unfamiliarity.
The former capital of the Great Zhou Imperial Capital can no longer be found.
Su Yun and the others felt that in the capital, many former members of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan had become slaves being driven away.
Anger flashed across his face.
"What a shameless ancient emperor! I never expected him to be so ruthless, not even sparing these members of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan."
"I used to think he was someone important, but now I see him as nothing more than a beast."
Sensing the changes in the Great Zhou Imperial Capital, Su Xiuyi's expression turned extremely cold at that moment.
They made no attempt to conceal their whereabouts, and proceeded step by step toward the Great Zhou Imperial Capital.
To be precise, the Great Zhou Imperial Capital is no longer called the Great Zhou Imperial Capital, but is now called the Human Emperor's Palace.
The moment Su Xiuyi Space Breaking, countless sharp gazes locked onto Su Xiuyi and the others in the void.
"How dare you! Who goes there?"
"Flying is prohibited from the Human Emperor's Palace. Anyone who disobeys will be executed."
The moment the voice fell, a powerful general instantly threw out his spear, which swung like a dragon.
"Presumptuous!"
" Yang Shan, how dare you!"
Standing behind Su Xiuyi, Su Yun took a step forward and reached out to grab the spear. The spear was an extremely powerful divine weapon, but in that instant, it was shattered into countless fragments by Su Yun's divine power.
Su Yun's sharp eyes were fixed on the general.
This man was a former Imperial Guard leader whom he had promoted.
Upon hearing Su Yun's icy words, Yang Shan instantly recognized Su Yun, Su Xiuyi, and the others.
Although Yang Shan didn't know why Su Yun's cultivation had suddenly improved so dramatically, a cold expression still appeared on his face.
"Form ranks and slay the Human Race traitors!"
Yang Shan ignored Su Yun in the void, a mocking smile playing on his lips. In his view, Su Yun and his group were simply courting death. He had already witnessed firsthand just how terrifying the Ancient Emperor was.
Su Yun coldly watched the scene before him, a chilling light flashing deep within his eyes.
However, when faced with Su Yun's icy gaze, Yang Shan's lips curled into a mocking smile.
" Su Yun, Su Xiuyi, this world no longer belongs to your Su Imperial Clan, but to the ancient emperors."
"The ancient emperors were the true supreme overlords, the supreme overlords who suppressed all races."
"The ancient emperor had already decreed that the Su Imperial Clan had colluded with rebels, and their crime deserved death."
Originally, Su Xiuyi had no interest in paying attention to these people. However, upon sensing figures approaching from the Space Breaking, Su Xiuyi frowned slightly.
Su Xiuyi did not come here today to seize the imperial power of the Great Zhou Emperor. Su Xiuyi only came to take what belonged to her, but she did not expect that the world had changed so much.
Su Yun was furious at the insubordination of these people and wanted to take action. However, Su Xiuyi stepped forward and said calmly.
"A bunch of ants, not worth wasting time on."
As soon as the words fell, Su Xiuyi took a step forward.
The newly activated formation burst like a bubble in an instant, and the powerful figures who had rushed in with murderous intent exploded in the void.
Blood rained down from the sky above the Human Emperor's Palace.
Yang Shan looked at the blood rain falling in the void with disbelief. He never imagined that Su Xiuyi would become so incredibly powerful.
Some beings that exploded in the air were far inferior to Yang Shan, yet they were unexpectedly so vulnerable in front of Su Xiuyi.
In that instant, Yang Shan was filled with terror and wanted to beg for mercy, but the next moment an incomparably terrifying force spread out, and Yang Shan's body instantly exploded into a bloody mist.
At the same time, the enormous Human Emperor palace collapsed instantly.
A colossal rift appeared in the capital, a rift that seemed to devour everything.
"Go, you lot!"
Su Xiuyi spoke calmly to Su Yun and the others, who were all furious.
As the words fell, Su Xiuyi, holding the Blood Dog in her arms, led Dugu Hong into the abyss.
"Junior brother, you've come back to this familiar place. Is there something precious that you must take with you?"
Dugu Hong was surprised to discover that Su Xiuyi had not concealed her identity and had directly destroyed the ancient emperor's palace.
"Senior brother, this place was once where I fell into despair, and it was also where I rose to prominence. And here, a woman sleeps in slumber!"
The moment the word "woman" was mentioned, Su Xiuyi's expression became somewhat complicated.
In truth, Su Xiuyi had no feelings for this Green Hill Holy Maiden, yet the other woman sacrificed everything for her and perished.
Seeing the complex expression on Su Xiuyi's face, and her thoughtful expression, Dugu Hong didn't ask anything further.
Soon, Su Xiuyi and Dugu Hong appeared in an underground palace. The temperature inside the palace was extremely low, and as soon as they stepped into the palace, a terrifying chill swept over them.
The two slowly walked into the palace, where there was an enormous ice coffin.
A woman of unparalleled beauty slept peacefully in that ice coffin.
"Incomplete soul!"
"Yet, their last glimmer of hope was preserved through horrific means."
"It seems this woman is very important to my junior brother."
"Junior brother, are you planning to one day reunite her soul?"
Dugu Hong entered the palace and, with just one glance, knew the general situation of the Green Hill Holy Maiden.
"Good!"
"She was the Green Hill Holy Maiden, and also my betrothed since childhood. When I was quietly cultivating here, she mistakenly thought I had perished. In order to avenge me, she almost died and her cultivation was destroyed."
"Although I had no feelings for her and wasn't familiar with her, I still felt heartbroken when I saw her fall, and my feelings towards her were quite complicated."
"I never imagined that there could be such a devoted woman among the Demon Race."
Su Xiuyi gave a brief explanation, and the next moment, with a wave of her hand, the ice coffin in the palace disappeared, disappearing into the world that Su Xiuyi had taken into her.
Su Xiuyi went here to take the Green Hill Holy Maiden away.
When Su Xiuyi took everything that she once owned from the underground palace.
Outside, the void suddenly cracked open.
Terrifying beams of golden light shone down from the void, so bright that it was impossible for anyone to open their eyes.
"Who dares to destroy my imperial palace?"
This voice was incredibly grand, resounding throughout the entire Human Realm.
The next moment, an enormous figure stepped out from the endless golden light and descended into the sky.
He wore a golden Human Emperor, exuding an invisible, world-destroying power.
It was an avatar of the ancient emperor.
Upon learning that his palace had been destroyed, an ancient emperor's avatar crossed over from another realm.
"The Emperor?"
You dare call yourself emperor?!
"In such a short time, you have ruined this Human Realm to such a state. You should be called the Beast King."
"My Great Zhou Imperial Clan are also subjects of the Human Race, yet you enslave the bloodline of my Great Zhou Imperial Clan and the subjects loyal to the Great Zhou Imperial Clan."
You deserve to die.
Facing the ancient emperor's booming voice and terrifying aura, Su Yun in the imperial capital slowly rose into the air, his icy gaze locking onto the ancient emperor's avatar.
The members of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan around Su Yun all changed their expressions drastically. In recent days, they had already witnessed the terror of the ancient emperor, and their bodies trembled upon hearing Su Yun's words.
"Go, go quickly! Don't worry about us. The bloodline of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan must be passed down. The ancient emperor is too terrifying. He has already reached the Void Immortal Realm realm. Even his avatars are invincible."
An elderly member of the Su Imperial Clan roared, his voice trembling.
Su Yun responded, and seeing those terrified gazes, her anger intensified.
Su Yun was very clear that the ancient emperors and others did not regard the lives in the Ten Thousand Races Ancient Realm as human beings at all. In their eyes, all the creatures in the Ten Thousand Races Ancient Realm were objects for blood sacrifice.
"You think you can take it?"
"Die!"
The ancient emperor's avatar in the void showed a disdainful expression. He instantly stretched out his hand and pressed it against the void. The next moment, an enormous, sky-covering hand appeared in the void.
This enormous golden hand, seemingly descending from endless golden light, appeared to be about to destroy countless lives in the imperial capital.
Within the imperial city, millions of people were plunged into despair at this moment; the golden hand instilled in them a despair that ran deep in their very souls.
"These people of the Human Race are subjects of my Great Zhou Dynasty. How can you so easily erase them?"
"If I say I'll kill you today, then I'll kill you!"
Su Yun knew very well that Su Xiuyi would not pay any attention to such an existence. Su Yun soared into the air and, in the next moment, unleashed a stunning sword strike.
The ancient emperor's clone, who had been calm, suddenly had his pupils contract upon seeing Su Yun's sword strike. His face was filled with disbelief, and he tried to say something, but it was too late. The clone was directly killed by Su Yun's sword.
In the void, the giant golden hand formed from supreme Dharma Power shattered instantly.
Seeing that Su Yun had easily killed the ancient emperor's avatar, the millions of people in the enormous imperial city showed excitement on their faces. Su Yun's sword strike reminded them of the Invincible guardian of the Great Zhou many years ago.
"Welcome back, Your Majesty!"
"Welcome back, Your Majesty!"
The next moment, excited voices rang out throughout the entire capital.
These oppressed people saw a glimmer of hope in that instant.
Seeing this scene before him, Su Yun's eyes reddened. Su Yun didn't know what these people had gone through these past few days.
However, sensing that everyone's blood and energy were insufficient, Su Yun vaguely guessed what was going on.
