250: Rule stripping

A Law of Origin, representing the most fundamental physical phenomenon of burning, was forcibly ripped by Su Lei from a star in a crude and unreasonable manner!

That Law of Origin, in his palm, transformed into a transparent flame that continuously flickered.

And that star, having lost its Law of burning, rapidly cooled and collapsed within a few breaths, eventually turning into a cold white dwarf.

This was the new Divine Ability Su Lei had comprehended.

“Law Stripping.”

The transparent flame in his palm dissipated, and the distant, desolate white dwarf, after the Law returned, began to burn weakly once more.

He could only achieve temporary stripping for now, not permanent Seize.

But even so, this was already a terrifying power capable of overturning any battle.

Just as Su Lei was immersed in the comprehension of his new Divine Ability, the entire White Tower, and even the entire City of Frozen Ice, began to tremble violently again.

This tremor was more intense than any before.

It was as if some terrifying existence, having slumbered for eons, was about to fully awaken from deep underground.

“It’s the Queen!”

Yelena was incredibly excited at this moment!

At the same time, in the square outside the White Tower, Li Xue凝's body had already completely healed under the deluge of vast life energy.

Her Qi, which had been dormant due to exhaustion, was now surging at rocket-like speed!

Great Grandmaster Peak, Half-step Venerable... Finally, when the white pillar of light completely dissipated, her Qi settled steadily at the threshold that countless Martial Artists could never reach in their entire lives.

Just one step more, and she could become a Saint and enter the Venerable realm!

Li Xue凝 opened her eyes, and the phantom of an Ice Crystal Phoenix was incredibly solid within her pupils, as if it could break free at any moment.

Feeling the unprecedented power within her, she immediately turned her gaze towards the towering White Tower.

Inside the deepest sanctuary of the City of Frozen Ice, the cracked Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Coffin shattered with a crash!

A tall, graceful, and perfect figure rose from the broken ice coffin.

She had long silver hair like moonlight, skin as fair as jade, and features so exquisite they seemed otherworldly, not of a Mortal.

But the ice-blue eyes that slowly opened held no human emotion; only the majesty of a ruler over all under heaven and the absolute indifference of one looking down upon all living beings.

She was Astrea, the last Queen of the Valkyrie Empire.

The moment she appeared, a vast and terrifying pressure, like a tsunami, swept across the entire city.

All the Awakening Faction and Gravekeepers still engaged in sporadic fighting were uncontrollably forced to kneel towards the White Tower by this absolute suppression originating from their Bloodline.

An internal war that should have lasted for months was abruptly brought to an end in the most unreasonable way at the moment of the Queen's Awakening.

The Queen's figure slowly faded from her original spot, and in the next second, she appeared atop the White Tower.

She looked at the man who had just subdued the crown of wisdom, quietly observing him.

In her eyes, Su Lei was not a benefactor, but a collaborator standing at the same height as her, with whom she could make a deal.

“It seems you succeeded.”

“You succeeded too.”

Su Lei met her gaze calmly.

“You control the crown of wisdom, and I control this city.”

“From now on, this ice and snow Empire belongs to you.”

The Queen uttered words that would drive any Valkyrie warrior mad; she casually handed over the dominion of the entire Empire.

“But there’s no free lunch.”

The corners of her mouth curved into a faint smile: “I need you to do three things for me.”

“Tell me.”

Su Lei was not surprised.

“First, eradicate all of Venerable Tianhe’s remaining schemes within this Empire.”

“He has been operating here for ten thousand years. I want you to find each of his imprints, completely erase them, and restore this Empire to its purest form.”

Su Lei remained silent for a moment, then nodded: “Understood.”

This was only natural.

“Very good.”

The Queen seemed very pleased with his straightforwardness: “In return, I will tell you the clue to the third Civilization Keystone.”

“It is hidden in a place you would never expect, a Forbidden Ground long forgotten by you humans yourselves.”

When Su Lei and Queen Astrea walked down from the White Tower side by side, the entire square was silent.

All Valkyrie warriors knelt in the most devout posture to welcome the return of their monarch.

“From today onwards…”

The Queen’s voice clearly reached everyone’s ears: “The Valkyrie Empire will no longer have the Awakening Faction, nor the Gravekeepers.”

“There will only be my will.”

Her gaze turned to Su Lei beside her: “And he will be the Regent King of this Empire, possessing equal authority with me.”

This announcement was like a bombshell, exploding in the hearts of all the warriors.

A man, to become the King of their purely female warrior Empire?

This was utterly preposterous!

However, in the face of the Queen’s majesty, no one dared to raise an objection.

“Yelena.”

The Queen’s gaze fell upon the newly appointed leader of the Awakening Faction.

“Yes, Your Majesty the Queen.”

Yelena’s body trembled slightly as she respectfully responded.

“You shall be my First Apostle. From now on, consolidate all the Empire’s forces and obey the Regent King’s command.”

“As you command.”

Yelena accepted the order without hesitation.

The Queen’s gaze then turned to Li Xue凝 and Oriental Shuo: “As the Regent King’s companions, you shall be the most honored guests of this Empire.”

Having done all this, the Queen’s figure slowly faded again: “The rest is up to you.”

A light sentence entered Su Lei’s ears, and she had completely vanished.

Only a newly appointed Regent King was left in the square, facing a vast, kneeling Valkyrie army.

Su Lei couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. He turned his gaze to Yelena.

“First, find all items, locations, and energy nodes within this city related to Venerable Tianhe’s aura.”

“Not a single one can be missed.”

“Yes, Lord Regent King.”

Yelena respectfully accepted the order and left.

Under the Queen's absolute will and the First Apostle's strong executive power, the war machine, dormant for ten thousand years, began to operate at high speed.

Soon, detailed reports, like snowflakes, converged in Su Lei's hands.

Venerable Tianhe's schemes were more numerous and more hidden than he had imagined.

It was a vast network of biological altars, spread throughout the city's underground, intricately intertwined like a spiderweb.

They disguised themselves as abandoned pipes or building foundations, rooting themselves into the city's Veins like plant roots, drawing faint energy to maintain operation, monitoring every move of the city, and every heartbeat of the Queen.

What a insidious and grand scheme this was.
