61: Fairy, would you be willing to be my lackey?

“Just now…someone from the Blood Fiend Sect committed violence in the Hall?” The white-robed young man’s expression changed slightly, his gaze sweeping across the Nine Dragon Hall.

“Who are they?”

Many ministers were puzzled.

Although the names of the Ten Immortal Sects of the Central Plains were renowned, their Disciples were high above, far from worldly affairs. If they didn’t announce their identities, others generally wouldn’t know them.

“Your Majesty, a big shot has arrived,” Red Bell whispered into Xia Xuan’s ear, “That black-clad woman is the Palace Master of the Myriad Desires Palace, Fairy Xuanzha. The others around her are also from Immortal Sects, and they might all be her suitors.”

“Fairy Xuanzha?”

Xia Xuan recalled the intelligence on the Myriad Desires Palace collected by the The Unworthy.

The current Palace Master of the Myriad Desires Palace was rumored to possess the Xuanzha physique, which granted her an extremely high affinity for Heaven and Earth Origin Qi. Her Cultivation speed was hundreds or even thousands of times that of ordinary people. Furthermore, she possessed the Xuanzha Origin Yin, an asset coveted by Cultivators, which could help one break through a major Realm barrier in a single day.

If one could obtain such a Dao Companion, even a wastrel could soar to great heights.

Moreover, her exquisite beauty was a great weapon in itself.

Countless people, including those from Immortal Sects, and even Eternal Noble Families, Western Desert Demonic Sects, and powerful foreign races, pursued her.

A single word from her could make those who sought to please her sacrifice their lives without hesitation.

“A bunch of bumpkins.”

The white-robed young man scanned the room and, seeing that no one recognized him, arrogantly introduced himself:

“This Young Master is Mo He, the Young Pill King of the Pill Cloud Sect.”

“Amitabha, I have no Sect or School, my Dharma name is Wujie.” Monk Wujie clasped his hands together.

“Sword Cliff, Badiao.” The thick-browed, big-eyed swordsman said.

“Myriad Desires Palace, Xuanzha, greetings to Your Majesty of the Wu Dynasty.” Fairy Xuanzha bowed, but her expression remained cold.

“Greetings to Your Majesty of the Wu Dynasty.” The others, seeing this, also perfunctorily followed suit and bowed.

“Dispense with the formalities.”

“People from Immortal Sects are indeed more disciplined than those from Demonic Sects; they still know to be courteous before resorting to force.”

The ministers’ expressions were strange. As expected, the Emperor’s heart was unfathomable. Was His Majesty planning to let these people off with their lives?

“Hey, up there, we are only respectfully addressing you as Your Majesty out of respect for Fairy Xuanzha. Don’t take yourself too seriously. The Fairy wants to ask you a question, so show some proper attitude.”

Badiao was impolite, scolding him on the spot.

The ministers’ hearts sank. It was over, this fellow was looking for death.

In the past, they might have thought that Immortal Sects, with their ten-thousand-year Legacies and vast power, required the Wu Dynasty to constantly accommodate them for stability.

But the scene of the two Demonic Sect Masters dying just now was something the ministers would never forget.

If he continued to act up, His Majesty would probably kill even the people from the Immortal Sects.

“Hey! Don’t play dead…”

Badiao scolded, about to draw his saber, when suddenly a chilling Sword Qi instantly grazed his neck. At the same time, the long saber in his hand shattered with a clang, as if torn apart by thousands of Sword Qi, its fragments falling to the ground.

“You…”

Badiao’s arm trembled as he looked at White Plain, his expression changing drastically. “You are… which Grand Elder of Sword Peak?”

“Ask one more question, and it won’t just be the saber that shatters.”

White Plain said coldly, not intending to explain anything.

Before leaving Sword Cliff, she was still in the Divine Martial Realm, a Disciple. Her Master was merely a Sword Cultivator in the Void Dharma Aspect Realm, rarely interacting with the higher-ups in the Spirit Dharma Aspect Realm within the School.

Now that she was in the Divine Dharma Aspect Realm, being mistaken for a Grand Elder was understandable.

Xia Xuan stood up, glanced at White Plain, and gently admonished, “Fairy Xuanzha is a person who understands etiquette. If her dog barks, we can’t possibly get angry with her dog, can we?”

“Your Majesty is right.” White Plain nodded seriously.

Badiao’s Face flushed, but he couldn’t utter a single word.

He constantly muttered to himself that the new Martial God was a pretty boy, utterly despicable, relying on the Grand Elder of Sword Cliff.

This unfamiliar Grand Elder was also disappointing, allowing herself to be controlled by a junior.

At this moment, he deeply regretted revealing his identity.

“Please, Your Majesty, first release the Ninth Elder and Saintess of my Myriad Desires Palace.”

Fairy Xuanzha’s voice was cold. “And please tell me how Enchanting Heavenly Demon died?”

Inside the Hall, Prince Qi’s expression was somewhat grim, fearing that His Majesty would push him out as a scapegoat.

“Enchanting Heavenly Demon participated in the rebellion and was executed on the spot. Is there anything wrong with that?”

Xia Xuan brazenly scrutinized Xuanzha, then suddenly gave a charmingly evil smile.

“The answer is complete. Now it’s My turn to ask you.”

“Fairy, are you willing to submit to the Wu Dynasty and become My loyal servant?”

As he spoke, Prince Qi, the ministers, the Disciples of the Immortal Sects, and even Xuanzha herself were stunned.

Since she assumed the position of Palace Master of the Myriad Desires Palace, no one had ever dared to treat her with such disrespect.

Even if it was just in words.

If these words spread, this young Martial God might Face endless assassinations.

Monk Wujie looked at Xia Xuan with an expression of admiration, silently giving a thumbs-up.

“You, you, you… you scoundrel!”

Young Pill King Mo He could not bear the rage, gritting his teeth and pointing at Xia Xuan’s nose, he roared, “You immediately, right now, apologize to Fairy Xuanzha, otherwise…”

“Otherwise what?”

Xia Xuan looked at Xuanzha, smiling, “This Myriad Desires Palace has sent Elders, and now the Palace Master, each time demanding people. I don’t want to be seen as the villain who kidnapped the Saintess of the Myriad Desires Palace.

So, this time, let’s just resolve it once and for all.”

“Otherwise… you’ll die without a burial place!”

As Mo He uttered his threat, Xia Xuan had already made his move.

Inside the Nine Dragon Hall, the sound of a Dragon’s roar echoed, and a terrifying aura surged from Xia Xuan.

Xuanzha snorted coldly, seven Divine Rings appeared behind her, and a Xuan Nü Dharma Aspect opened its eyes with a start.

Extremely cold ice flames transformed into two hundred-zhang ice pythons, devouring Xia Xuan.

Boom!

The Void Realm trembled.

Imperial Dragon Qi filled the great hall, blocking all residual waves. Xia Xuan utilized a trace of the human emperor body’s power, his entire body glowing with brilliant divine radiance, like a Heavenly God descending. Wherever he stepped, the ice flames extinguished, the Imperial Dragon Qi cleared the path, and the Xuan Nü Dharma Aspect collapsed and disintegrated.

Xuanzha’s expression was startled, her Physical Body suppressed by an inexplicable mighty force, unable to move at all.

Xia Xuan thus directly approached her, coming into close contact with this stunningly beautiful and cool woman.

“Don’t touch me!” Fairy Xuanzha’s eyes were icy cold, as if they could kill.

“That imperial throne isn’t comfortable to sit on. I’ve troubled the Fairy.”

When Xia Xuan was in a mischievous mood, he showed no pity for women.

The suppressed Fairy Xuanzha was in a humiliating posture, her delicate brows tightly furrowed, her Face as cold as frost, her eyes fixed on Xia Xuan with icy hatred and disgust. Her pearly teeth trembled slightly, and a very soft, delicate hum escaped from between them.

“The Fairy’s slender jade back is indeed more comfortable to sit on than a wooden block.”

“Your Cultivation has been Sealed by Me to the Spirit Dharma Aspect Realm. If you wish to remain at this level for the rest of your life, you may leave after the court session ends.”

Xia Xuan was calm and composed, completely unconcerned by the hatred and disgust in Xuanzha’s eyes.

Mo He saw his perfect Fairy suffering such humiliation, seated by a man like a small stool. His mind went blank, his eyes wide with rage, bloodshot, no longer possessing any scholarly elegance, like a mad beast wanting to pounce on Xia Xuan.

“The Myriad Desires Palace interfered with the Imperial Dynasty’s internal affairs and incited rebellion, causing countless casualties among our Wu Dynasty soldiers. Your Majesty has done well!”

Prince Qi laughed heartily, acting like a fox borrowing a tiger’s might. “You little dog, don’t go mad. Which general will capture him?”

General Yue Changting made his move, and the might of the Divine Dharma Aspect left Mo He of the Pill Cloud Sect with no power to resist, pressing him to his knees.

Monk Wujie’s heart pounded, regretting having followed along.

Although he could witness Fairy Xuanzha’s humiliated posture, his own life might be at risk.

Badiao was now immensely grateful for the Grand Elder’s warning; otherwise, he would be the one making a fool of himself right now.

“Let me go! I am the Young Lord of the Pill Cloud Sect! If you dare to harm a single hair on my head, I will make sure that no one in your Wu Dynasty can buy a single Medicinal Pill ever again!” Mo He threatened loudly.

“That actually reminds Me. The Pill Cloud Sect controls the Medicinal Pill trade in the Four Seas and Five Regions and can arbitrarily raise prices maliciously. Over ten thousand years, who knows how much wealth they have accumulated.”

Xia Xuan commanded, “Come, send word to the Pill Cloud Sect. Tell them to bring one hundred billion Origin Stones to ransom their Young Lord.”

Mo He was stunned; he had underestimated Xia Xuan’s courage and shamelessness.
