The Empress’s Blind Consort: Invincible in Secret

Vol2 – Chapter 22 – Heroes fall like rain

"Young Master Ji, weren't you comprehending the Supreme Dao? How do you have time to visit the Wilderness..."

A group of old bones looked tense. As representatives of the high-end combat power and pillars of the Wilderness, they were surprisingly apprehensive in front of a mere thirty-year-old junior.

Ji Wushuang's eyes were cold and emotionless as he suddenly asked:

"The two Old Ancestors of the Great Qian Dynasty, your lifespans are withering, and it seems you don't have long to live. How about..."

Whoosh!

Crack!

Ji Wushuang suddenly reached out and snapped off the head of one of the Old Ancestors of Great Qian. He then spun the head on his fingertip, his expression mocking as he said:

"Do you all think that just because I'm far away in Sky State, I don't know what's happening in the Wilderness?"

Several Old Ancestors in the Morning Glow Realm were shocked, staring in disbelief as a headless corpse collapsed with a thud, hot blood scorching the ground into channels.

A Great Being in the early Morning Glow Realm was as fragile as a paper figure in front of the Second Young Master of the Ji family!

The only surviving Old Ancestor of the Ji family, his eyes bloodshot, roared in fury:

"How can you kill someone just because of a disagreement!?"

Ji Wushuang's tone grew colder:

"On one hand, you accept our Ji family's resources and aid, and on the other, you secretly cultivate experts with those resources. Your intentions are obvious."

"And this has been going on for nearly a century among your seven major forces. Let's not even mention it; the Ji family doesn't lack a few trifles and doesn't care if the Wilderness produces a few more Moon Glow or Morning Glow experts."

"As long as you complete the tasks assigned by the Ji family, we can tolerate it. But you should never have, under any circumstances, secretly released the Space-Time Sword Saint and handed over the seven major forces to the Great Jin Dynasty!"

By the end of his speech, Ji Wushuang's black hair was wildly dancing, and he looked like a demonic god, his killing intent overwhelming, locking onto the group of Old Ancestors like a bloodthirsty Yama.

The only remaining Old Ancestor of Great Qian felt his hot blood turn cold, calming down slowly, and tried to explain:

"Sorry, Young Master Ji, we..."

"Die!"

Ji Wushuang's voice was like thunder, giving him no chance to react. The Old Ancestor of the Great Qian Dynasty's flesh body exploded, turning into a mist of blood.

In an instant, Old Ancestor Taotie and the former priest of the Shaman God Sect, along with other Great Beings in the Morning Glow Realm, were drenched in cold sweat.

A dignified Great Being in the Morning Glow Realm was killed with a single word, easier than killing a chicken.

Terrifying!

"Considering the virtue of Heaven's mercy, and that your cultivation hasn't been easy, I'll give you one last choice: infiltrate the Great Jin Dynasty, kill the Empress' Husband, and capture the Space-Time Sword Saint alive."

As Ji Wushuang spoke, he crushed the head in his hand with his five fingers, his tone light and breezy:

"Otherwise, your fate will be the same as his."

The former priest of the Shaman God Sect suddenly laughed and said, "Death is nothing. We have served the Ji family of Sky State for thousands of years. Even if we are cursed for eternity, we have already cast aside our reputations. What is there to fear about death!?"

As his words fell, the priest's murky eyes under his hood turned sharp.

"Shaman God Heaven Sacrifice, sacrifice the three souls, sacrifice the Morning Glow Dao Fruit, sacrifice the lifespan!"

Black smoke emanated from the priest's entire body, his aura rising rapidly. Sacrificing his life and cultivation, his strength temporarily reached the mid-Morning Glow Realm!

Without any hesitation, the priest attacked, accompanied by a solemn curse:

"Shaman God Heaven Sacrifice!"

The desperate killing move aimed straight at Ji Wushuang, the priest showing a relieved smile.

However, before his smile could fully bloom, his head exploded like a watermelon.

A blood-red mandala flower bloomed in the air.

Ji Wushuang's expression was indifferent as he calmly retracted his spear, lightly shaking off the blood.

"Stubborn."

Ji Wushuang raised his eyes to look at the remaining people, seeing their silent resolve to die, and sighed regretfully.

He sighed for the loss of some useful dogs.

On this day, the nameless Abyss of the Heavenly Chasm emitted a terrifying tremor, the Great Dao in disarray, the rules of Heaven and Earth tangled into a chaotic mess.

Signs of the fall of several Great Beings in the Morning Glow Realm appeared frequently, with one supreme expert after another dying silently, their flowing blood forming rivers that surged through the abyssal gorge.

Half a day later.

In the Abyss of the Heavenly Chasm.

In the midst of a vast sea of blood, a young man with a godly and jade-like appearance floated, standing with a spear, surrounded by a dozen corpses.

"Preferring death to submission..."

"Ridiculous."

Ji Wushuang sneered, "With such courage, why didn't you dare to fight a thousand years ago, choosing instead to crawl under the Ji family? A bunch of old dogs afraid of death, only thinking of preserving your reputations when your end is near, trying to do something right for the Wilderness."

His empty voice echoed in the gorge.

There were giant heads as large as mountains crushing the earth, corpses standing tall even in death looking up at the sky, and some still wielding weapons, their divine souls extinguished. Broken swords were embedded in the cliff walls, but their owners were no more...

Only a ferocious beast, pierced by iron chains, was bound and unable to move. No matter how it struggled, it was to no avail.

"The bloodlines of Glutton, barely qualified to be my mount."

Ji Wushuang placed a finger on Old Ancestor Taotie's forehead, closed his eyes, and murmured to himself:

"Let me see, in your memories, who exactly are the Space-Time Sword Saint and the Empress of Great Jin."

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated."

After a long time.

When Ji Wushuang opened his eyes again, a trace of heat flashed in his pupils. He couldn't help but lick his lips, a wicked smile appearing:

"The Empress of Great Jin is indeed unparalleled in beauty. Compared to her, the saintesses and goddesses I've played with before are nothing."

"And the Space-Time Sword Saint... not simple at all, with Sword Sense infinitely close to Emperor Grade. If left unchecked, he will surely become an invincible force."

Old Ancestor Taotie felt extremely aggrieved, unable to even burn his lifespan for a desperate fight.

His Divine Sense had been refined, imprinted with a slave mark, turning him into Ji Wushuang's puppet.

"Sword Saint, Empress... we... are guilty..."

"We couldn't stop... the Ji family's advance, we... are sinners..."

Two lines of blood tears flowed from Old Ancestor Taotie's eyes, his fragmented Divine Sense transmitting intermittently, not lasting long before the last bit of clarity in his Divine Sense vanished.

The once-guardian Divine Beast of the Five Spirit Clan had completely become a mindless slave.

"Heh, get up." Ji Wushuang snapped his fingers.

The chains binding Old Ancestor Taotie broke.

Old Ancestor Taotie stood up woodenly, bowing his head to the ground in submission.

Ji Wushuang's pupils shot out two beams of divine light, looking in the direction of the Great Jin Dynasty, unable to suppress his greed any longer.

"The Empress of Great Jin, the Sword Sense of Time and Space, I must have them both; they will be mine!!"

"Such a beauty, such Emperor Grade Sword Sense, they should belong to me!"

At this moment, Ji Wushuang no longer concealed his intentions, his smile wild and sinister.
