110: Chapter 110 [Bonus Chapter] The Empress's Gamble!!!

"Your Majesty Empress Xuan Sha Gu Ming, I, Kula Wani, also request to fight!"

"Your Majesty Empress Xuan Sha Gu Ming, let me go!"

"Your Majesty Empress Xuan Sha Gu Ming, let me do it instead. I can take down this Human Race trash with one hand!"

...

Among the Ghost Race, many powerful warriors stepped forward, their blood boiling as they all longed to gain the favor of Empress Xuan Sha Gu Ming.

One must know that this Empress had never borne an heir!

According to Ghost Race tradition, after coming out of seclusion this time, she had to find a male of the Ghost Race for the great plan of procreation, to breed new offspring for the Ghost Race and continue the powerful Bloodline.

Furthermore, the Ghost Race was a strange species; among ten thousand newborns, only about a hundred would be female, while the rest were all male!

The gender ratio was severely imbalanced!

Because of this unique reason, the Ghost Race's strength was uneven, with numerous branches and a status quo where female power was immense.

Most male ghosts who couldn't find a female of their own race could only target other races, including various animal spirits and human ghosts.

(Note: Human ghosts ≠ Ghost Race!!!)

In an instant.

The atmosphere became quite heated!

It was as if Chu Xiao was a helpless lamb waiting to be slaughtered!

A hint of displeasure flashed across Xuan Sha Gu Ming's child-like, tender face. As the Empress of the Rakshasa Ghost Clan, she disliked such scenes and even more so that group of ugly, low-level ghost warriors.

Speaking of which.

She found Chu Xiao quite pleasing to the eye!

"All of you, step back!" Xuan Sha Gu Ming spoke slowly, a terrifying pressure radiating from her body, instantly leaving those high-spirited ghost warriors somewhat at a loss.

Step back?

Why step back?

Some ghost generals were unwilling and wanted to say something, but they couldn't utter a single word.

Rumor had it that Her Majesty Empress Xuan Sha Gu Ming had an eccentric personality and was a woman of her word; anyone who dared to defy her will would simply face death.

After the Ghost Race experts exchanged glances, they all took a step back.

Xuan Sha Gu Ming narrowed her eyes and looked directly at Chu Xiao, saying, "This Ghost Race treasure—where did you find it?"

Chu Xiao lied without blinking, "This is the ten-path reincarnation hell tower, a God Realm combat weapon passed down to me by my master! It's no Ghost Race treasure!"

"ten-path reincarnation hell tower?" Xuan Sha Gu Ming murmured to herself, finding the treasure more and more desirable. Although she had an Emperor Realm cultivation, she had yet to find a weapon that satisfied her. She had thought about refining one herself, but unfortunately, she wasn't proficient in Artifact Refining, and the Netherworld lacked resources, making it impossible to find suitable refining Materials.

Xuan Sha Gu Ming said slowly, "Leave this tower behind, and this Empress will not hold you accountable for the crime of destroying the Ghost Gate Pass and killing members of my Rakshasa Ghost Clan!"

Her voice was calm, carrying a natural arrogance and a chilling coldness.

"Sorry, I can't leave it! This treasure was bestowed upon me by my master. Without his permission, there is no way I could hand it over."

Chu Xiao responded with a smile, without the slightest hint of fear.

At worst, he could just escape through the Gate of Ten Thousand Worlds, go back to refresh his Golden Finger, and come again.

A real man knows when to yield and when to stand tall!

Xuan Sha Gu Ming frowned. "Are you reminding this Empress, or are you threatening me? Are you really not afraid of death?"

As she spoke, she released a wave of pressure that descended upon him.

If an ordinary Golden Immortal faced this pressure, their knees would surely go weak, and they would instantly fall to their knees.

However, Chu Xiao just smiled faintly. "Think what you will. If you want to fight, I'll fight. But if you want me to leave my things behind and run away like a coward... sorry, that's impossible!"

Fight!

Xuan Sha Gu Ming narrowed her cold eyes, a playful smirk touching her lips. "Interesting. Do you think that by your strength alone, you can be a match for my entire Ghost Race?"

"Not now, but it might be different in a few days!" Chu Xiao spoke with a smile, appearing completely fearless.

The speed at which his strength increased could no longer be described as that of a Prodigy. Since his Rebirth and binding with the System, it had only been a few short days, yet he had gone from a mere Mortal to a Golden Immortal Realm expert.

In the words of the System, the speed of his power growth was simply unbearable to look at...

Any other ruthless existence would have sacrificed Earth, destroyed the Three Realms, charged into the heavens of the Universe, and dominated the cosmos already.

What was Chu Xiao doing?

This useless guy was busy every day trying to resurrect his family, unable to break free from emotional ties, hiding in his comfort zone and having the time of his life.

"Hahaha... Interesting! This is truly too interesting!" Xuan Sha Gu Ming couldn't help but laugh heartily. She clapped her hands and said, "Fine! Then I'll give you a few days! Once you're ready, come and fight me! If you lose, you leave this ten-path reincarnation hell tower behind! How about it?"

"Your Majesty, with your status, why bother taking a clown seriously? Why not let this old official act now and kill him!"

"Your Majesty, let me kill him!"

Several King Realm experts from the Ghost Race stepped forward and spoke.

Xuan Sha Gu Ming, looking displeased, slowly raised her hand to signal them to stop their chatter. She then looked at Chu Xiao with a playful expression, as if waiting for an answer.

Everyone's eyes were on Chu Xiao.

The atmosphere was a bit...

Chu Xiao coughed and said with a smile, "And what if you lose?"

"I lose? Hahaha..." Xuan Sha Gu Ming burst into laughter, even tearing up from it. She found this human before her more and more amusing—truly interesting, incredibly audacious, and utterly delusional.

She was the most outstanding Empress of the Rakshasa Ghost Clan in hundreds of thousands of years. Her cultivation was profound, she had lived for over a hundred thousand years, and her strength rivaled the heavens.

How could she possibly lose?

Xuan Sha Gu Ming stopped laughing and said slowly, "Fine, since you have such confidence, I won't bully you! When the time comes, I will fight you at the same cultivation level. If I truly lose, you can do as you wish! Whatever you want, as long as I have it, what's the harm in giving it to you!"

Hearing this.

Luo Lie, who had retreated into the shadows, was startled. He thought to himself that this was bad; he was the only ghost present who had witnessed Chu Xiao's terrifying abilities. His assessment of Chu Xiao was extremely high—so high that he believed only the Old Ancestor could kill him instantly.

This is bad, truly bad!

Her Majesty the Empress actually wants to fight this Prodigy at the same level—then the outcome is hard to say!

A battle at the same level...

It's like a free gift to Chu Xiao!!!

"Your Majesty, you must not fight this person at the same level! His strength is terrifying, and he can even devour our Ghost Race to increase his cultivation! If it's a battle at the same level..."

Luo Lie hurriedly shouted at the top of his lungs. Even though he knew these words would provoke Empress Xuan Sha Gu Ming, he had to say them.

He couldn't just stand by and watch the Empress dig a hole and bury herself!
