630: Empress in white

Once everyone was seated, Li Qingyue sat down next to the top seat. With a smile on her face, she addressed the Elders:

"The main matter for discussion today is the Battle of Ten Thousand Dragons five hundred years from now."

The Battle of Ten Thousand Dragons is a grand assembly organized by the Nine Star Empire. Its primary purpose is to gather the Prodigies from across the Empire to compete, with massive rewards given based on the final rankings.

If one can catch the attention of the Imperial Family during this Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly, not only will they receive assistance from the Imperial Family, but the power behind them will also rise to prominence, with even their associates benefiting from their success.

Therefore, this grand event attracts a vast amount of attention.

Furthermore, with the Empress's Breakthrough to the Immortal Venerable Realm, the strength of the entire Nine Star Empire has reached a new level. This has led to a significant increase in the scale of the grand event. Even though the Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly has not yet begun, the Imperial Family has already received reservation messages from many people.

This Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly was also created by the Empress with the goal of strengthening the Empire's power.

Aside from members of the Li Family, those with other surnames can become part of the Imperial Family as long as they are loyal to the crown and have performed numerous meritorious deeds.

The status of such individuals is equally transcendent, second only to the main Imperial Family within the Nine Star Empire.

This Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly is an opportunity to form a connection with the Imperial Family, naturally causing countless people to flock to it.

Moreover, this assembly does not have strict age limits. It is held every fifty thousand years, and as long as you pass the basic assessment, you can participate.

This basic assessment is a test of your strength. For example, if you are in the Heavenly Immortal Realm, you will take the Heavenly Immortal Realm assessment. The purpose of this assessment is to filter out contestants with weaker strength.

The Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly has competitions for every Realm, including the Earth Immortal Realm and even the Human Immortal Realm.

Li Qingyue spoke again: "The number of people attending this Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly is quite large. According to my preliminary statistics, the number of people who have already signed up has reached the total of the previous one. By the time five hundred years have passed, the number of participants is estimated to be three to five times that of the previous session."

"The scale of this Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly is truly massive, so the rewards and procedures must be even more rigorous. There must not be the slightest mistake."

Before coming, she had already organized the general procedures and regulations.

These were all modifications and adjustments based on the previous Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly. Li Qingyue placed these documents before the Elders to reach a consensus.

Each Elder looked down to read. After finishing the entire text, they all nodded solemnly. Li Qingyue's ability was indeed quite good; these rules and regulations were very comprehensive, and even they couldn't find any faults.

"It's already very good; I have no objections."

"I have no objections either."

The Elders spoke up one after another, finalizing the procedures for this Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly... For a period of time afterward, Li Qingyue was extremely busy, returning only once every three to five days.

Su Chen did not keep pestering her. There were many things he could do, such as accompanying Yang Lan or teasing Zhou Yao.

He knew that the Nine Star Empire's Ten Thousand Dragons Assembly was about to begin. Su Chen had even looked at the list of participants; it seemed that both the Haoran Sect and the Su Family were going to participate.

Hmm?

Suddenly, Su Chen looked toward a certain spot and saw a white figure slowly stepping out from the Void Realm.

The Empress had an elegant posture and calm eyes. Dressed in a white gown, she looked like a goddess, carrying a sense of being high and mighty—an imperial temperament cultivated over a long period.

To be honest.

The Empress's beauty could only be rivaled by Ye Lan and Bai Yulan. Furthermore, the Empress did not look like a mother at all; if she were to stand with Li Qingyue, Su Chen might even think they were sisters.

This was because the Empress's appearance shared nearly a thirty percent resemblance to Li Qingyue's, though the Empress's beauty and temperament surpassed those of Li Qingyue.

Spotless and pure, the Empress walked toward Su Chen and then gave a slight bow:

"Regarding the previous matter, I must thank you, My Lord."

Su Chen stood up and said with a smile, "You are Qingyue's mother. It's nothing for me to help out a bit."

Upon hearing these words, a nearly imperceptible flash of disappointment crossed the Empress's eyes.

"Regardless, it is a fact that you helped me. If you ever have need of me in the future, My Lord, you may call upon me at any time."
