36: Chapter 36 I'm Not Clean Anymore

"Hmph... Such important information, why didn't you tell this Sect Master sooner?"

Elder Zhao looked at the gloomy expression on Sect Master Yuwen Huaji's face and slowly explained: "Sect Master, you wrong me. This old man only figured it out completely a few days ago, and besides, the Young Sect Master has always been deeply infatuated with Empress Mi Qianxi, so..."

"You unfilial wretch!"

In the past few years, due to handling the various affairs of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Sect Master Yuwen Huaji had neglected his surveillance of Empress Mi Qianxi. Fortunately, he had dispatched Elder Zhao to secretly investigate the matter; otherwise, he really would have been fooled by that little wench.

"Zhao Huan, you have done well. From now on, you are an Inner Sect Elder."

After obtaining the information he wanted, Sect Master Yuwen Huaji said to Elder Zhao with satisfaction.

"Thank you for your grace, Sect Master!"

Zhao Huan's aged face beamed with joy. He knelt directly on the ground and shouted excitedly: "If Sect Master can obtain this profound art from Empress Mi Qianxi, you will surely become the next new super sect."

"Hahaha, good! Well said!"

Sect Master Yuwen Huaji was already lost in the future described by Zhao Huan when he suddenly sensed something. He was instantly enraged, and an overwhelming aura erupted from his body.

"Who is it? Such audacity!"

Suddenly, the killing intent of an Earth Profound Realm expert caused the entire Heavenly Demon Sect to tremble.

"Bang, bang, bang—"

Zhao Huan, kneeling on the ground, thought he had angered this volatile Sect Master and hurriedly kowtowed vigorously.

"Sect Master, could a powerful enemy be attacking?"

The Great Elder flew over from the Elder's Hall, looking at Sect Master Yuwen Huaji with a face full of confusion.

"General Yuwen Chengdu's soul lamp has gone out!"

Sect Master Yuwen Huaji's old face was full of hideous and terrifying colors. He stood up from the Sect Master's throne, and the terrifying aura around him erupted once more, enveloping the entire Heavenly Demon Sect.

"What? The Young Sect Master's soul lamp has gone out? Could it be that he has already..."

"But didn't Elder Zhao Huan go to protect the Young Sect Master?"

"A mere mortal dynasty, yet someone actually has the strength to kill the Young Sect Master? How is that possible?"

At this moment, a large crowd of elders and disciples gathered outside the main hall of the Heavenly Demon Sect, discussing this matter.

"Sect Master, Elder Zhao left the Young Sect Master without authorization, leading to this incident. You must not spare him!"

Zhao Huan broke out in a cold sweat. He looked up and saw that it was Wang Hai, who was usually at odds with him. His face immediately darkened, and he asked indignantly and aggrievedly: "Sect Master, this old man has contributed so much to the sect over the years and even found the whereabouts of the mysterious Saint's inheritance. Do you really want to kill me?"

"What Saint's inheritance?"

The crowd of Heavenly Demon Sect elders looked surprised, with a hint of greed hidden in their eyes.

"General Yuwen Chengdu is dead; this Sect Master absolutely cannot keep you!"

Sect Master Yuwen Huaji, who had not intended to kill him, immediately used thunderous means to destroy Zhao Huan's body and soul with a single sword strike on the spot.

"Pass on my order: I want to destroy the Great Chu Dynasty. Elders, lead the Spirit Profound Realm and True Profound Realm disciples to wipe out the remaining small nations. This seat intends to establish the Heavenly Demon Immortal Dynasty!"

Sect Master Yuwen Huaji waved his hand, his pitch-black robe billowing without wind, and he gave orders to the three Earth Profound Realm elders of the Elder's Hall.

"We respectfully obey the Sect Master's order."

The Heavenly Demon Sect's Great Elder, along with the Second and Third Elders, dared not show the slightest negligence and immediately went down to issue the Sect Master's orders.

At the same time, they were extremely excited. An Immortal Dynasty? Wasn't that the Xuanyuan Immortal Dynasty of the Northern Wilderness Region?

Could that Saint's inheritance be the "Divine Luck Deification Art"?

"A fine Empress Mi Qianxi, your planning has been meticulous until now. What a pity, what a pity, but this Sect Master still found out about your Mi family's inheritance. Next, this Sect Master will personally send you to see Mi Wushuang!"

Sect Master Yuwen Huaji laughed instead of getting angry. He walked out of the hall, his figure leaving only a shadow on the ground as he rushed directly toward the Great Chu Dynasty.

...

Great Chu Dynasty Imperial Palace.

"It's a good thing you reminded me to kill him."

Empress Mi Qianxi looked at Ye Xuan with lingering fear, while looking at him with her beautiful eyes: "Why did you know that General Yuwen Chengdu was stalling for time?"

"Heh, in order to survive, such a person can say even the most shameless things. If his father came back, do you think you could survive?"

Ye Xuan's lips curled up. Suddenly thinking of something, he revealed a wicked smile: "But speaking of you, you collected my poems; have you admired me since you were little?"

"Hmph."

Empress Mi Qianxi's thoughts were seen through, and her pretty face flushed red. But immediately, her aura changed; the aura of the eighth level of the Spirit Profound Realm instantly froze Ye Xuan in place, and she extended her slender fingers to gently tease Ye Xuan's chin.

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you suddenly returning kindness with enmity?"

Ye Xuan was extremely helpless. Although he could easily break this restriction, it was interesting, wasn't it?

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. If Sect Master Yuwen Huaji comes later, won't we both be done for?"

"That's right. General Yuwen Chengdu was a disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect and had a soul lamp there. I'm afraid that old thief, Sect Master Yuwen Huaji, already knows that General Yuwen Chengdu is dead."

Thinking of this, Empress Mi Qianxi became much more anxious and hurriedly wanted to take Ye Xuan away from the Great Chu Dynasty.

"Little husband, don't worry, I will definitely protect you for the rest of my life!"

Empress Mi Qianxi just regretted not achieving her goal. If she had cultivated the "Qi Luck Sealing Saint Art" to great success, even if ten Sect Master Yuwen Huajis came, she would be confident in easily suppressing them.

Empress Mi Qianxi's movements were fast. In a few swift motions, she strapped Ye Xuan onto her back and made a move to run toward the Great Qin's Hundred Thousand Mountains. As long as they entered, even that old thief, Sect Master Yuwen Huaji, would have no way to find them.

"Why are you running? Silly girl, don't you want to avenge your father's death?"

Ye Xuan felt a bit awkward. This headstrong Empress Mi Qianxi was really reckless; saying she'd run, she really was going to run.

Sect Master Yuwen Huaji was just an old thief about to be buried; even if he was at the half-step Heaven Profound Realm, so what? It wasn't as if he couldn't be defeated.

"Besides, the Great Chu is your Mi family's legacy. Are you willing to just give it up like this?"

Empress Mi Qianxi rolled her eyes at Ye Xuan on her back and said helplessly: "Unwilling, but what can I do? It's better than dying. You are at the ninth level of the True Profound Realm, and I am at the seventh level of the Spirit Profound Realm. Against an old ghost of the Earth Profound Realm, we are simply no match for Sect Master Yuwen Huaji's single move."

"As long as I am still alive, I will definitely be able to take revenge in the future." With her little husband on her back, Empress Mi Qianxi was full of confidence; she would certainly be able to make a comeback.

"Put me down. You've seen the power of an Earth Profound Realm cultivator. Carrying me is just a burden. If you escape alone, there is still a glimmer of hope." Ye Xuan said this on purpose to see what this little empress would do.

"Hmph, you want me to abandon you? Impossible! Even if I, Empress Mi Qianxi, die, I will not abandon you."

Uh, why do I suddenly feel a bit touched?

Ye Xuan couldn't help but squirm a few more times on Empress Mi Qianxi's back. Sensing the faint fragrance, he muttered to himself: "Even if a Heaven Profound Realm expert comes today, I will make him peel off a layer of skin! I will help you get your revenge!"

"Little husband, don't fidget, I... I command you..."

Empress Mi Qianxi, who was rushing toward the mountains, blushed. In her shy anger, she used her slender hand to fiercely slap Ye Xuan on the buttocks.

"Wuwuwu, I am no longer clean!" Ye Xuan also blushed and shouted reluctantly from behind.
