336: Why did my father rebel?

"That's right!!!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves.

The Cultivators on the Righteous Qi Sect side roared at the top of their lungs: "Look at that lecherous grin on your face; you're clearly no good! Can't you tell that we of the dignified Righteous Qi Sect are filled with Upright Qi?"

"That's right! If you're not convinced, come down here! I'd be letting you off easy if I didn't extract your soul and seize your spirit. You call yourself a Cultivator of the demonic path? Have you ever seen a demonic Cultivator as handsome as me?!"

"This brat is slandering us; wipe him out along with them!!!"

"..."

Hearing the roars from the Righteous Qi Sect, the soldiers of the Wu Dynasty were all stunned.

Seriously, guys, is that really what you're focusing on?

People are saying they're going to wipe you out, and yet you're still debating who is righteous and who is demonic.

Besides, with your Devilish Qi soaring to the heavens, do you have even a shred of the Righteous Path about you? You talk about Upright Qi, but if the people from the Academy heard that, they'd fight you to the death!

Li Baiyu was clearly also in a daze.

How many years had it been since anyone had dared to curse him?

And the reason they were cursing him was basically trampling his head into the dirt!

You call yourselves the Righteous Path? If you lot are the Righteous Path, then I'm the light of the Righteous Path itself!!!

"Shut up! Cultivators of the demonic path are forsaken by Heaven and Earth. Today, I will ensure none of you return alive!!!"

Li Baiyu roared and raised the longsword in his hand, killing intent swirling in his eyes. He, Li Baiyu, had spent decades of effort just to have one child.

Yet that child had died at the Righteous Qi Sect, and in a truly gruesome manner.

Today, no matter what, he would make the Righteous Qi Sect pay the price!

With this thought, Li Baiyu swung down his longsword.

Roar!!!

A colossal phantom of a white tiger erupted from the sword, its roar tearing through the clouds in the sky.

Immediately after, the mountain-sized white tiger pounced downward.

The appearance of the white tiger signaled the beginning of the battle.

Boom!!!

War chariots rumbled, and ten thousand beasts roared, threatening to devour the heavens. Hundreds of thousands of Cultivators from the Beast Taming Sacred Ground descended directly from the Void Realm, and they had only one target: the Righteous Qi Sect!

Seeing the people from the Beast Taming Sacred Ground charging over, the Disciples of the Righteous Qi Sect showed not a hint of panic in their eyes.

On the contrary, the eruption of Devilish Qi only made their expressions grow increasingly ferocious.

"Beast Taming Sacred Ground, is it!!! Come on then! I'll slaughter you lot along with them!!!"

Boom!!!

The massive roar resounded throughout the universe. The hundreds of thousands of Cultivators from the Beast Taming Sacred Ground who had come to assist did not bring despair to the people of the Righteous Qi Sect; instead, it caused their morale to soar even higher.

In a short time, the Righteous Qi Sect faced the siege of Cultivators from both the Beast Taming Sacred Ground and the Wu Dynasty without showing any signs of defeat. On the contrary, their Aura was able to suppress both, which was truly jaw-dropping.

"Hahahaha hahahaha!"

Standing opposite the Lord of Blissful Demons, the Martial Saint Emperor laughed out loud: "It seems that this time, even the Heavenly Dao is helping our Wu Dynasty. Lord of Blissful Demons, facing me and..."

"What are you laughing at? Is there something wrong with your head?"

Before the Martial Saint Emperor could finish his taunt, the Lord of Blissful Demons impatiently interrupted him: "Do you think you can win just because you have the help of the Beast Taming Sacred Ground? Li Baiyu has come at the right time; today, I will slaughter both of you!"

"And then I will attack the Upper Domain! I will make you all understand that my Righteous Qi Sect cannot be insulted! And my Righteous Qi Sect's Saint is certainly not someone that any old riffraff can touch!!!"

The Martial Saint Emperor looked at the Lord of Blissful Demons in front of him with astonishment; he didn't know where the other party's confidence came from.

Even if the Righteous Qi Sect's combat power was formidable, so what?

As fellow Immortal Dao Lineages, he wanted to fight two at once?!

"Since you are actively seeking death, then I shall fulfill your wish!"

The Martial Saint Emperor looked furious, and immediately, his Aura erupted. The Imperial Qi evolved into a True Dragon phantom, which was roaring wildly.

Just as the two were about to make a move.

Two beautiful figures appeared there.

Seeing who had arrived, the Martial Saint Emperor was overjoyed: "Empress, join me in fighting the enemy! Today, the Righteous Qi Sect will surely be destroyed! The Beast Taming Sacred Ground has come to help as well."

Hearing this, Empress Wu did not move but stood there quietly. Like Wu Mingyue, her beautiful eyes looked at the Martial Saint Emperor with indifference.

The look did not seem like she was looking at her own family at all; it was even more indifferent than looking at a stranger.

"Hm?"

At this moment, the Eldest Prince clearly noticed the problem and hurriedly said: "Mother, Royal Sister, now is not the time for infighting. Let's wipe out the Righteous Qi Sect first, and then..."

"Shut up! What right do you have to speak here?!"

Empress Wu waved her jade hand lightly.

With a boom, a crimson light erupted, and that light directly sent the Eldest Prince flying.

Seeing this scene, the Martial Saint Emperor looked cold: "Empress, what is the meaning of this?!"

As the Martial Saint Emperor's Aura locked onto Empress Wu, the True Dragon phantom above the Void Realm also turned toward Empress Wu, its huge and majestic dragon eyes staring fixedly at her.

Hum...

As the Empress of the Immortal Dynasty, Empress Wu also possessed the Luck of the entire dynasty. An ancient Phoenix phantom appeared above her head. The Phoenix spread its wings, covering the sky and the sun, with each red feather flickering with scorching heat.

It confronted the True Dragon phantom opposite it. In this battle of Dragon and Phoenix, neither side was the least bit weaker.

Just at this moment, Empress Wu parted her red lips slightly and said slowly: "Your Majesty, since the struggle for the succession has no result, then it is only natural that Mingyue should inherit it. And since you have initiated the succession ceremony, you should step down now."

"But you not only occupy the Martial Emperor throne, you even killed the new ruler's Dao Companion! This Empress would like to ask one thing."

"Your Majesty, why do you rebel?"

"What?!"

Hearing Empress Wu's words, the veins on the Martial Saint Emperor's forehead bulged. He had not expected Empress Wu to say such a thing!

And at such a critical moment!

His anger rose to the extreme, and it seemed as if he would attack Empress Wu in the next moment. Before that, the Martial Saint Emperor first looked at Wu Mingyue and asked in a deep voice: "Mingyue, do you think so too?"

"If you withdraw now, I can pretend that nothing ever happened, and you will still be the Crown Prince in the future!"

Wu Mingyue just shook her head.

Seeing his eldest daughter shake her head, the Martial Saint Emperor's mouth curled up, but immediately, his smile froze on his face.

Wu Mingyue said softly: "Since I have already ascended the throne, the actions you have taken, Father, are no different from rebellion, and they have even plunged our Wu Dynasty into a crisis of annihilation. For such a grave crime, I am unfilial, and I can only say one thing to you, Father."

"Please, Father, go to your death."

"You!!!"

The Martial Saint Emperor was overcome with rage. He had not expected that the mother and daughter in front of him, one would say he was rebelling, and the other would demand his death!

Unlike his anger, the Lord of Blissful Demons on the side was watching this scene with great interest.

In the news that had spread previously, it was said that Wu Mingyue had almost killed her own father, the Martial Saint Emperor, for the sake of Lin Ye. Now it seemed the news was true.

This Martial Saint Emperor was truly a failure; in the end, he had no one by his side!
