144: Let strength determine the outcome.
Nangong Yue hesitated for a moment.
[Remember this site's domain w̆̈̆̈k̆̈̆̈̆̈ă̈̆̈n̆̈̆̈.c̆̈̆̈ŏ̈̆̈m̆̈̆̈ waiting for you]
She knew all the Empresses present.
If this had been before, they would have likely started fighting by now.
But after meeting several times, they had become familiar with each other and felt that everyone was fairly sincere.
A full-blown fight was unlikely.
"It's not that we can't get along, but each of you must hand over an Imperial Weapon."
"Then this Empress will agree to let you stay together."
Nangong Yue spoke, making a concession.
"No way, keep dreaming!"
Empress Bai Moyun of the Underworld waved her hand and retorted directly.
Setting aside how rare Imperial Weapons were!
She, Bai Moyun, was not someone to be trifled with.
As the first Empress of the Underworld, she held a noble status and had her own connections.
Why should she give Nangong Yue an Imperial Weapon?
Empress of the Underworld: "This Empress's requirements aren't high; each of you just give me one Imperial Weapon!"
At this moment, the Empress of the Underworld followed Nangong Yue's example and spoke to everyone.
Asking for an Imperial Weapon was just a pretense; they both wanted to fight for the top spot.
Position was very important.
This was an eternal truth.
"Heh!"
"Everyone wants Imperial Weapons, but where would so many Imperial Weapons come from?"
"This Empress doesn't want anything; I just want Little Feng."
Qinger chuckled, covering her mouth as she spoke.
After speaking, she picked up her jade bowl and, like Qin Feng, began drinking the Immortal Brew.
Hongchen Empress Lu Xueqi did the same.
The Empresses on their side were weaker in strength and wouldn't compete for now.
It was better to watch the fire from the opposite bank.
On the field, only Nangong Yue and Bai Moyun remained, locked in a stalemate.
After a long moment!
Empress Bai Moyun of the Underworld's eyes darted around as she said,
"Since no one is willing to yield, why don't we have a little contest?"
"What do you think, Guanghan Empress?"
Hearing this, Guanghan Empress smiled.
"Empress of the Underworld, we haven't seen each other for so long, and yet you've become so confident."
"Fine, this Empress will grant your request."
"How shall we contest?"
Although Guanghan Empress was smiling, the icy aura around her grew increasingly dense.
The atmosphere at the dining table became even more oppressive.
"Naturally, we'll see who can last... the longest with Little Feng. You don't think I'd be foolish enough to compete with you in martial prowess, do you?"
The Empress of the Underworld rolled her eyes.
Hearing those words, Qin Feng almost fell over in shock.
His hand trembled, and with a 'thud,' the jade bowl landed on the table.
As expected of the Empress of the Underworld.
Her idea of a 'contest' was truly unique.
Guanghan Empress's hand also shook, and her cheeks instantly turned red.
She didn't know how to argue back.
What kind of contest was this!
Competing to see who could last longer in an internal war...?
Simply ridiculous!
The other Empresses also gaped, forced to give the Empress of the Underworld a thumbs-up.
"Ahem!"
"Can we change it to some other kind of contest?"
Guanghan asked, feeling somewhat guilty.
"No, I can't beat you at anything else."
The Empress of the Underworld replied with a smug smile.
"Fine, since you insist, this Empress can only fulfill your wish."
"Otherwise, you'll really think I'm afraid of you."
Guanghan Empress took a deep breath and said, having made up her mind.
Immediately, she waved her hand, and strands of chaotic spiritual mist seeped out, forming a Barrier nearby.
An indestructible Barrier was formed in the blink of an eye.
"Little Feng, you are not allowed to... go easy this time."
"You said it yourself, fair and just."
Guanghan Empress looked at Qin Feng, her cheeks somewhat hot as she spoke.
Qin Feng held a great deal of influence.
"This...!"
Qin Feng was falling apart.
This was the first time he had heard of such a contest.
Wasn't this clearly letting him choose who would win or lose?
"Rest assured, I will definitely be fair and just."
Qin Feng nodded hurriedly, responding to Guanghan Empress.
"Wait...!"
"If it's this kind of contest, I think I can also participate."
Just as Qin Feng, Guanghan Empress, and the Empress of the Underworld were about to enter the Barrier, Empress Qing'er of the Burial Ground stood up.
"How about I participate too?"
"The position goes to the capable; I think I, Empress Jiu You, can also give it a try."
"Since everyone is doing this, I, Hongchen Empress, naturally cannot fall behind."
All of a sudden, the seven Empresses all stood up, eager to try.
Qin Feng's legs trembled slightly, and he felt his scalp go numb.
Fortunately, the System task time was still long.
Otherwise, this time, he really wouldn't know how long it would take.
"This...!"
Guanghan Empress's cold face suddenly flushed crimson.
With so many people together, how could they even have a contest!
Just thinking about contesting with the Empress of the Underworld had caused her to struggle internally for a long time.
Now, everything was in chaos.
Empress of the Underworld: "What, Guanghan Empress, are you scared?"
"This was bound to happen sooner or later anyway!"
"Come on, don't be afraid, I've got your back."
As she spoke, the Empress of the Underworld even scanned Guanghan Empress's figure up and down.
Dressed in white like snow, with an extraordinary temperament and a graceful figure.
Her skin also looked very elastic.
"I...!"
Guanghan Empress was somewhat speechless.
The Empress of the Underworld had the thickest skin of anyone present; she was blunt about everything.
She didn't even stop so many people from joining; instead, she joined in the commotion.
"I give up on you."
Finally, Guanghan Empress spat out a sentence.
In terms of having a thick skin, Guanghan Empress had indeed lost.
But that didn't mean she would really lose the internal war.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...!
Eight figures entered the Barrier.
The other six Empresses, for safety's sake, added another six layers of Barriers.
Immediately, inside the Barrier, various kinds of chaotic spiritual mist flickered.
Sigh...!
"Another huge chunk of cultivation time is going to be wasted."
Qin Feng remained calm on the surface, but secretly muttered in his heart:
"However, I suppose this is also a form of practice!"
"Conditioning the Physique a bit."
Qin Feng could only comfort himself this way.
With seven Empresses contesting, he was the one who would suffer.
The first to take the stage were Empress Qing'er of the Burial Ground and Hongchen Empress Lu Xueqi.
The luck value above these two's heads was only 33,333.
Third-Rank Fortune Children!
This indicated that they had only experienced this once.
Therefore, they certainly couldn't hold out for long... After about fourteen days, both reached their limits and fell asleep within the chaotic spiritual mist.
The two averaged seven days each.
They had both grit their teeth and endured; it was truly not easy.
Qin Feng made some slight adjustments, rested for half a day, and collected all the luck value.
Only then did he begin the next round of testing.
At this time, the luck values above Empress Qing'er of the Burial Ground and Hongchen Empress Lu Xueqi's heads were both Fifth-Rank Lucky Children.
Their luck value soared all the way, almost reaching Sixth-Rank Luck.
Next up.
Was the trio led by the Empress of the Underworld.
These three were quite strong, especially the Empress of the Underworld.
An Eighth-Rank Fortune Child!
Empress Jiu You, a Sixth-Rank Fortune Child.
Supreme Empress, a Sixth-Rank Fortune Child.
With a thought, the ancient emperors blood in Qin Feng's body turned into vital energy, filling him up.
Only then did he start this test... A full month passed.
Qin Feng felt a bit numb.
But these three were still gritting their teeth and persevering.
The nearby Guanghan Empress and Snow Emperor watched in amazement.
