165: Chapter 165 Killing the Black Dragon King, Yang Tian's Fury!

"It's you!!!"

Empress Donghuang Baiqing looked at the face that had emerged before her in utter astonishment.

She never imagined that the Young Master of the Zhou Family would be the one to tamper with her heaven and earth spiritual essence herb.

"Your Majesty, this subject's actions were truly out of necessity!"

Zhou Yuxuan spoke to Empress Donghuang Baiqing across the void.

"Heh! Zhou Yuxuan, tell me, what necessity drove you to this?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yuxuan spoke calmly, "Your Majesty has long been wary of my Zhou Family's power. If you were to activate the Donghuang Bloodline and increase your cultivation, my Zhou Family would no longer pose a threat in Your Majesty's eyes."

And Your Majesty would not simply leave us alone just because the Zhou Family is no longer a threat. Therefore, for the future of my Zhou Family, this subject had to tamper with things a little."

"..."

Listening to Zhou Yuxuan's words, Empress Donghuang Baiqing burst into laughter.

"Haha! Traitorous subject, you don't truly believe this bit of poison can do anything to me, do you? Originally, I thought you still had some use and intended to let your Zhou Family remain for a few more days."

It seems that won't be necessary. After today, the Zhou Family will no longer exist in the Eastern Region!"

Empress Donghuang Baiqing sneered a few times, then looked at Zhou Yuxuan with cold eyes.

Those golden eyes of hers radiated supreme Divine Might, and the clan mark on her forehead erupted with a powerful aura.

"Your Majesty, don't speak too soon. Why don't you try and see if you can remove this Calamity Poison?"

Zhou Yuxuan paid no heed to Empress Donghuang Baiqing's threat.

Instead, he spoke indifferently.

Empress Donghuang Baiqing frowned. For some reason, a faint sense of crisis welled up in her heart.

"Hmph! I'll try it then. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Empress Donghuang Baiqing sneered. Immediately after, she began to circulate her Cultivation Technique, intending to expel the Calamity Poison that had invaded her body.

However, with just that single thought, Empress Donghuang Baiqing felt a sharp, stabbing pain in her heart.

"What's going on?! What kind of poison is this?" Empress Donghuang Baiqing's eyes widened. She didn't understand why, when she only wanted to expel the Calamity Poison,

the more she circulated her Cultivation Technique, the more the Calamity Poison increased, making it completely impossible to expel from her body.

"Heh! Your Majesty, don't waste your efforts. This is a divine poison this subject obtained from an Emperor Scripture. If you do not have the matching Cultivation Technique, you cannot expel it!"

"Although this subject cannot rely on this poison to take Your Majesty's life, it will continuously devour Your Majesty's cultivation. Your Majesty's cultivation will never make any further progress."

Furthermore, every once in a while, Your Majesty will feel a wave of pain sweeping through your entire body."

Zhou Yuxuan's words caused Empress Donghuang Baiqing's eyes to suddenly constrict.

"An Emperor Scripture?"

Empress Donghuang Baiqing never imagined that the Zhou Family's foundation would be so strong as to possess an Emperor Scripture. This caused her to raise the Zhou Family's danger level by several notches.

"What exactly do you want?" After trying for a while, Empress Donghuang Baiqing finally couldn't bear the pain and asked.

"Haha! Your Majesty, this subject doesn't want anything. As long as Your Majesty does not interfere with me, you shall remain safe and sound."

Zhou Yuxuan said with a light smile, which made Empress Donghuang Baiqing's expression soften considerably.

From the current situation, Zhou Yuxuan didn't seem to have much malice toward her, and she wouldn't have any problems in the short term.

She could use this time to find a way to neutralize the potent poison in her body.

Thinking of this, Empress Donghuang Baiqing spoke.

"I see! I agree to your terms. I will not disturb you, as long as what you do does not conflict with me."

Empress Donghuang Baiqing decisively agreed to Zhou Yuxuan's request.

This decisive move was something he hadn't expected.

However, looking at the still somewhat indignant Empress Donghuang Baiqing, Zhou Yuxuan didn't care much.

At least he could guarantee that for a short time, his deterrence had achieved its goal, and his plans wouldn't be disrupted soon.

"In that case, this subject shall take his leave!" After receiving the promise, Zhou Yuxuan decisively left Empress Donghuang Baiqing's mind.

He left only a thick, dark green Qi within her consciousness.

...

At this moment, Zhou Yuxuan slowly woke up and looked up at Empress Donghuang Baiqing, who was still floating in the air.

Just then, Empress Donghuang Baiqing, who had her eyes closed, also opened them, and her gaze met Zhou Yuxuan's.

The two were very tacit; neither said a word. After a single look, they both averted their eyes.

"Young Lord! How strange. Just now, why did Old Zhao feel like that Empress looked over at us?"

As Empress Donghuang Baiqing successfully completed her Breakthrough, Zhao Chungang snapped out of it and voiced his confusion.

Beside him, Pei Nanya and Si Fei also nodded in agreement.

"It's nothing," Zhou Yuxuan replied simply with those two words.

Then, just as the group of four was about to enter the Imperial City,

a terrifying commotion suddenly erupted from the Demon Suppressing Tower not far from them.

"Human brat, you've gone too far! Today, even if this King has to die, I will kill you!"

Hearing that familiar voice, Zhou Yuxuan immediately remembered the Black Dragon King imprisoned on the sixth floor of the Demon Suppressing Tower.

"Interesting! To think the Black Dragon King would emerge ahead of schedule!"

Zhou Yuxuan said indifferently.

In the original plot, the Black Dragon King's emergence happened shortly after Empress Donghuang Baiqing ascended to the Supreme Realm.

And the Black Dragon King's emergence also led to the full exposure of Yang Tian's identity and cultivation, which had been hidden in the Demon Suppressing Tower.

The day the Black Dragon King emerged was also Yang Tian's moment of glory.

On that day, Yang Tian, with a single blade, fought the Black Dragon King for three hundred rounds, and eventually, the terrifying Black Dragon King was slain by Yang Tian's blade.

The Great Shang Imperial City also learned that such a God of Blades existed within the Demon Suppressing Tower.

However, since Zhou Yuxuan had encountered it today, the outcome would be different.

Zhou Yuxuan thought to himself.

Then, before his eyes, a giant dragon, pitch-black all over, dragged its scarred body out of the Demon Suppressing Tower and flew toward the outside world.

"Demon dragon, you dare to escape? Today, this official shall slay you here!"

Yang Tian, holding a demonic blade radiating black Qi, flew through the air in pursuit of the fleeing Black Dragon King.

"Interesting! Let's follow them!"

Zhou Yuxuan naturally wouldn't miss such an opportunity to change the plot. He didn't want Yang Tian's Luck to increase further, as that would make it even more troublesome when he wanted to kill Yang Tian.

"Brat! This King possesses the royal Bloodline of the East Sea Dragon Clan. If you kill me, you will surely draw the pursuit of the entire Dragon Clan!"

The Black Dragon King roared again at the relentlessly pursuing Yang Tian.

And just then, four figures suddenly appeared before him without warning.

"You are..."

The Black Dragon King was about to rage, but after clearly seeing Zhou Yuxuan's face, he lowered his guard.

"My Lord, save me! Save me..." Before the Black Dragon King's words could finish, in the next second, Zhou Yuxuan lightly flicked his finger.

It felt a sharp pain in its throat, and then the world began to spin until its life force vanished.

The Black Dragon King was killed by Zhou Yuxuan!
