453: Chapter 453 The Strongest Mother-in-Law in History! One Word and the Whole World Is Gone!

Chener's mother?

Grandmother?

These words echoed in Ji Hongxue's ears, making her head buzz as if it were about to explode on the spot.

Her heart, which had just softened due to the Bloodline resonance, suddenly leaped into her throat with a "thump," and her alertness instantly reached its Peak.

Su Chen's mother?

That bastard actually had such a terrifyingly ridiculous background?

Just a shadow of this woman descending was enough to make the Laws of the Heavenly Dao of this entire world kneel and submit.

Then how Heaven-Defying must her true body be?

Countless thoughts flashed frantically through her mind, and Ji Hongxue subconsciously took half a step back, one hand quietly shielding her flat lower abdomen.

This movement was full of defensiveness.

However, Matriarch acted as if she hadn't seen it.

"Don't be nervous."

Matriarch's tone was still as gentle as a kind Elder, as if she were just chatting with a neighbor.

"I didn't come with ill intent."

"It's just that the Qilin Son of my Su Family should not be born in such a filthy place."

She looked around the magnificent palace, which could be considered the pinnacle of the human world in the Lower Realm, and shook her head slightly.

Her expression was no different from a city dweller looking at a rural outhouse.

"So, I've come to take you... home."

"Home?" Ji Hongxue's phoenix eyes narrowed as she said coldly, "This is my home! I am the Great Xia Empress, ruling over this realm. Why should I go anywhere else?"

Even in the face of this power that felt like a dimensional strike, the imperial pride in her bones made it impossible for her to bow her head.

"Empress?" Matriarch chuckled after hearing that.

There was no mockery in that laughter, only a calm statement of fact.

"The king of fish in a small pond is still just in a pond, after all."

"Your Bloodline and temperament are decent enough to barely qualify as a daughter-in-Law of my Su Family."

"But your perspective is still too narrow."

She raised a slender, jade-like finger and lightly tapped the air.

Hum—!

A ripple like water spread out, and a massive light screen appeared out of thin air.

On the light screen was a vast and boundless sea of stars.

Stars billions of times larger than the one where the Xuan Yuan Continent was located floated like dust.

Streaks of immortal light, powerful enough to tear through star systems, shuttled freely within.

Divine palaces and immortal pavilions, larger than stars, were faintly visible, floating in the depths of the Universe.

Ji Hongxue even saw with her own eyes a terrifying giant beast, whose size was comparable to a Star Domain, yawn and swallow several nearby planets like they were beans...

And this was just a small corner that flashed by on the light screen.

Ji Hongxue was completely stunned.

The entire world she was so proud of seemed laughably tiny before this light screen, not even qualified to be a background.

"What you are seeing now is just a small nook of the Nine Heavens Immortal Court."

Matriarch's voice drifted over leisurely.

"That is Chener's true stage, and the world the child in your womb will conquer in the future."

"Now, do you still think this tiny Xuan Yuan Continent is your home?"

Ji Hongxue's lips moved, but she couldn't say a single word.

Her worldview, her perception, and her pride were shattered to pieces at this moment.

So... the world was actually like this.

So the Peak she had spent her life pursuing was nothing more than a starting point in the eyes of the truly powerful...

Seeing her dazed state, Matriarch nodded in satisfaction.

When dealing with such a proud daughter-in-Law, reasoning was useless; one had to show her how high the mountain was so she would realize how ridiculous the dirt mound she stood on was.

"Alright, that's enough of a glimpse."

"It's time to go."

Matriarch withdrew her finger, and the light screen vanished instantly.

Ji Hongxue snapped back to her senses and said urgently, "What are you going to do?!"

Matriarch didn't bother to answer her.

She simply slowly raised her jade-white palm and made a gentle grasping motion toward the ground beneath her feet.

The movement was very light and soft.

Yet it felt as if she had grabbed the entire world by its... throat!

...

At this moment.

Every kneeling living being on the Xuan Yuan Continent felt an indescribable, mighty force surging from deep within the earth's core!

"Rumble—!"

The entire continent was trembling violently!

Mountains cracked! Rivers reversed! The oceans roared!

Doomsday had arrived!

Inside the Lesser Formless Realm, the Eighteenth Ancestor and others watched the world outside the realm walls disintegrate in horror, their faces turning pale with fear.

"Mistress... is Mistress going to... destroy the Xuan Yuan Continent?!" one Elder asked with a trembling voice.

"Shut up!" the Eighteenth Ancestor barked, but his own voice was filled with uncontrollable trembling and fervor.

"This isn't destruction! This is a grand fortune! A rebirth!"

"Mistress... she wants to take our entire Xuan Yuan Lineage, along with this cage that has imprisoned us for a million years, back to the Main Branch!"

His words rang in the ears of all the Xuan Yuan Su Family members.

Everyone was left speechless by this insane speculation!

Next, reality confirmed his guess.

Under the terrified gazes of all living beings on the continent, a light membrane as thin as a cicada's wing rose from the edge of the continent, eventually meeting at the zenith and sealing the entire Xuan Yuan Continent tightly inside!

Immediately after.

"Crack—!"

A sound of something breaking from the world's Origin echoed deep within the Soul of every living being!

The Xuan Yuan Continent, the land that carried billions of lives, was actually forcibly stripped from the space-time it resided in!

It became a... floating continent, drifting in the endless Void Realm!

Inside Fengming Hall.

Ji Hongxue looked through the hall doors at the bizarre sight of countless stars receding rapidly outside, her entire being completely numb.

Packing up a world?

So... this was how you pack it up.

Everything she had witnessed today had exceeded the limits of her imagination.

Under the guidance of Matriarch's will, the floating continent wrapped in the Chaos light membrane turned into a streak of light and instantly vanished into the massive crack in the sky.

After an unknown amount of time.

When the blinding light faded and the violent tremors stopped.

The creatures on the continent tremblingly opened their eyes.

They discovered in horror that the sky had changed.

In the sky, there were no longer the familiar sun and moon, but... nine massive Immortal Suns radiating different colors!

The air was no longer the Spiritual Qi they were familiar with, but a type of incredibly pure, unfamiliar energy that could make a Mortal achieve Ascension on the spot with just one breath!

The Laws of the entire world had become incredibly heavy!

This was the Nine Heavens Immortal Court!

And the former Xuan Yuan Continent had now become a floating... city, situated in an inconspicuous corner of the Nine Heavens Immortal Court.

At the very center of the city, a brand-new archway condensed out of thin air.

Three large characters were carved upon it in a bold, flowing style.

"Xuan Yuan City".

On the terrace of Fengming Hall, Ji Hongxue faced the pure Immortal Spiritual Qi and looked at the nine unfamiliar suns in the sky, speechless for a long time.

Her world had been packed up.

She and her billions of subjects had "ascended" in a way she could never have dreamed of.

A gentle voice rang in her ear.

"From today on, this is your new home."

"Focus on nurturing the child."

Matriarch's figure slowly dissipated, and the pressure that could crush eternity vanished along with it.

Ji Hongxue stood there for a long time before slowly placing her hand on her lower abdomen, revealing a smile that was both helpless and full of expectation.

【Little fellow... it seems your grandmother is much more reliable than your irresponsible father.】

【The Nine Heavens Immortal Court, is it...】

Within her phoenix eyes, a raging fire ignited once again.

It wasn't anger, but the fire of... imperial ambition!

【Su Chen, just you wait!】

【The next time we meet, I will surely make you see me in a new light!】

Meanwhile.

Countless billions of miles away, on the second stage of the Ascension Ancient Road, Su Chen was watching the "face-braking drift" service, completely unaware of everything that had happened on the Xuan Yuan Continent.

When he finally reaches the Nine Heavens Immortal Court after enduring countless hardships, intending to perform a play of "restoring the Su Family."

He will find that a massive "surprise" has already been prepared for him.
