Chapter 877: The Unrivaled Empress

Zhang Ruochen fell down quickly and crashed fiercely into the ground like an aerolite, pushing soil and dust away.

Zhang Ruochen was already severely wounded from the previous fights. And the handprint played by the shadow of the Empress almost smashed his lower abdomen into pieces.

Zoom!

Before people could recover from the shock, Zhang Ruochen displayed Spatial Move to rush to the side of Queen Yin Eagle, bearing the intense pain and suppressing his injuries. Then he wielded his sword to chop her.

Now that he had reached Half-Saint, he could command space more freely. In such a short time, he could condense enough spatial power to display Spatial Move.

At least half of the time was saved.

Therefore, when Zhang Ruochen appeared at the side of Queen Yin Eagle, she only perceived a change of spatial power. And before she could act, coldness passed to her from her neck.

Hiss.

With a flash of sword light, the head of Queen Yin Eagle flew away. Blood gushed out from her neck, reaching more than three meters high.

The enormous blood Qi of the Half-Saint condensed into a blood cloud and floated in the surrounding space.

“Horrid Zhang Ruochen, he should dare to attack again!”

The death of Queen Yin Eagle awakened Feng Qin, Zhuang Xuankong and Jian Kongzi from the shock. They were so afraid of his next moves that they put on defensive gesture at once.

Zoom!

Feng Qin commanded Rules of Wind and leaped immediately backwards to land on the back of the giant black scorpion. He released the whole of his Saint Soul Territory to wrap up his body.

His title, King Giant Scorpion, had everything to do with the giant black scorpion taken by him.

The giant black scorpion was a sixth-level mid-class savage beast. Its attack could compare with Feng Qin in his prime.

Feng Qin together with giant black scorpion could even fight a dozen rounds with a Seventh Level Half-Saint.

Zhuang Xuankong slid aside instantly and landed to the left of Jian Kongzi. He stayed 10 meters away from Jian Kongzi, making the best defensive position for them both.

If Zhang Ruochen wanted to secretly attack him, he would surely be slaughtered by the sword of Jian Kongzi.

Reaching to the state of Half-Saint, Divine Fire Jingmie on Zhang Ruochen’s body died out quickly. His original power dispersed, ebbing, as well, making it a little hard to suppress his pain.

“That’s all for today. I hope we won’t meet again.”

Zhang Ruochen displayed Spatial Move and landed on the back of Blackie. Then he took the saint decree out and put Holy Qi into it.

Buzz.

Saint power surged out of the saint decree and became a giant light ball to wrap him and Blackie up. Then it rushed beyond the sky with the speed of a saint.

In fact, it was already a huge risk for Zhang Ruochen to have suppressed his wounds and killed Queen Yin Eagle. But the killing frightened Jian Kongzi, Feng Qin and Zhuang Xuankong, and forced them to retreat and defend themselves.

As a result, they failed to stop Zhang Ruochen from taking out the saint decree to escape, and had to watch him running away.

Phew!

Jian Kongzi threw a light-like flying sword in the direction where Zhang Ruochen was running to.

But the speed of the saint decree was way too fast to be hit by the flying sword of Jian Kongzi.

“Oh no. Once Zhang Ruochen recovers, even ten powerful figures working together wouldn’t beat him,” Jian Kongzi said with anxiety.

After tonight’s fight, Jian Kongzi shuddered as well, even though he was of high cultivation and status.

Feng Qin looked at the corpses of Queen Yin Eagle and King Gold Knife, and shook his head. “Now there are only six out of ten powerful figures alive.”

Jian Kongzi bit his lips with great shame.

Zhang Ruochen had killed four kings of the Ministry of War in a row. And each of them was a well-known figure who had great influence over the realm.

“Feng Qin, Zhuang Xuankong, you two go and report this to Lord Wan immediately. I’ll go after Zhang Ruochen and kill him at any cost before he can fully recover.”

After saying it, Jian Kongzi took out a saint decree and activated the saint power inside to rush to the night sky.

Now, those monks who were hiding in the dark recovered from the shock and took long breaths.

“Zhang Ruochen has reached the state of Half-Saint. If he could escape from the deadly chase of Jian Kongzi and fully recover, he would surely become an eyesore for the imperial government.”

“That’s true. He is so fast and can command both the power of time and space. He is more troublesome than those in Half-Saint Rank.”

Of course there were some who didn’t take him seriously, and they said, “Zhang Ruochen is way too arrogant. Not only did he destroy the shadow of the Empress, but claimed he would rush into the Imperial Palace and kill the Empress in person. Let’s see, if he could survive the first month, I, Wang Ru, will reverse my family name.”

Tonight’s fight had significant influence. Rays of Signal Flares flew in all directions and passed the word to all powerful forces in Central Region.

And since the word was still on the way, it would be an even bigger influence made by Zhang Ruochen the next morning.

Five Elements Chaotic Body, Tenth Change of the Fish-Dragon Realm, and the chopping of the shadow of the Empress…those would surely introduce the Time and Space Descendant to the monks of Central Region once again.

Central Emperor City was sure to be the most prosperous city of Kunlun’s Field. It used to be the capital city of Qingchi Central Empire 800 years ago as well.

After Qingchi Central Empire ended the reign of Sacred Central Empire, it had conquested all forces around, such as the Demonic Sect, Black Market, Buddha Way, Taichi Sect and so on, and united the world.

500 hundred years ago, Emperor Qing stepped down and the Empress came to the throne. The capital city of Qingchi Central Empire became the capital of the whole Kunlun’s Field, and was called “Central Emperor City.”

In the past 500 years, the scale of Central Emperor City had expanded several times, and its city wall had been constructed layer by layer.

Only Ziwei Palace at the center of Emperor City still stood high above the clouds, layer by layer. The highest layer floating in the clouds was beautifully decorated with gold columns and dragon pillars, and was tightly packed. It spread hundreds of kilometers away like fairy palaces from heaven. Common monks would only stand on the ground to look up at it and weren’t allowed to approach.

The so-called “Ziwei” stood for the Master of Battle and Fate, Saintly Way and Political Star.

On top of the clouds, there was a deep blue heaven lake, which was 15 kilometers in width and almost 70 meters in depth. All fish in the lake were saint beasts of the Aquatic Race. All plants by the lakeside were rare ancient saint herbs.

The water in heaven lake was Original Cold Spring taken by the Empress from the bottom of the Void Sea.

It was said that all water in Kunlun’s Field had originated in the bottom of the Void Sea, and flowed to seas, inland rivers and lakes. Therefore, the water from the spring at the bottom of the Void Sea was called Original Cold Spring.

One drop of Original Cold Spring could turn into thousands of drops of natural water. And only saint beats could live in Original Cold Spring.

At the center of heaven lake, there was an oasis. At the center of the oasis, there was the splendid Saint Palace Yuanchu, where the Empress lived.

It was a night with a full moon. The moon shined brightly as if it was put over Saint Palace Yuanchu to light the water’s surface of heaven lake with a glow. Some Taigu Remains came out of the water, and flew in the clouds to swallow the moonlight and practice ancient mysterious exercises.

Empress Chi Yao sat under an ancient tree beside the lake. Blood red leaves were under her feet, making a sharp contrast with the white Saint Jade Slabstone.

Under the moonlight, she was in beautiful gold dressings and was covered by divine light, looking like a Fairy Lingbo from heaven or an unrivalled Empress facing her realm.

Time had left no trace on her face during the past 800 years, as if the power of time couldn’t do anything to her. She had snow-white skin, a pair of bright eyes and red lips. And her fingers were pure and pretty like artistic treasures.

Four Maidens standing behind her were all like crescents and of great beauty and grace. But their looks were rather inferior to that of the Empress.

At the time, Empress seemed to sense something special and stopped being quiet. Her extremely beautiful eyes looked to somewhere billions of meters away.

Even the slightest look of hers could have great influence. All Half-Saints in Central Emperor City within hundreds of kilometers in diameter felt a strand of terrible Empress Might crushing over their heads.

Countless people were terrified by it and they had no idea what was going on.

After a while, the Empress looked away.

The voice of the Empress was like a divine voice from heaven. She said lightly, “Danqing, how long should we wait for the Nine Kunlun’s Heirs to finish practicing?”

Danqing apparently stood for Saint Lady Nalan Danqing, one of the Four Maidens standing behind the Empress.

Saint Lady was in bluish white scholarly robes, and her hair was combed like a young lord’s. She was very graceful. Her beautiful eyes and teeth were like the marbles under moonlight and green lotus in the pond.

She came to the Empress, bowed and said lightly, “The Nine Kunlun’s Heirs have entered Tianlun Mark and practiced for five months. They’ll need one more month to finish. By their cultivation, they could all reach Ninth Level Half-Saint by then, except for Huang Yanchen.”

The time in Tianlun Mark was thirty times as long as the outside.

Half a year’s practice of the Nine Kunlun’s Heirs in Tianlun Mark equaled 15 years’ practice in the outside. Together with large amounts of treasury resources supplied by the imperial government, it was not hard for them to reach Ninth Level Half-Saint.

Of course it had cost the imperial government dearly to have sent Nine Kunlun’s Heirs to practice such a long time in Tianlun Mark.

The Empress nodded and said, “The cultivation of Huang Yanchen was truly lower than the rest. But since she could become one of Nine Kunlun’s Heirs, she should have a better fate than the rest. Maybe she could accomplish more than them in the future.”

Just after the Empress finished her words, a melodious whizz was heard beyond the horizon. The sound had come through the clouds and surrounded Ziwei Palace.

All of the clouds rolled with the rhythm of the whizz. All saint beasts in heaven lake trembled with fear as they perceived an extremely dangerous Qi.

The eyes of the Empress looked at the horizon. Her soft lips moved and said softly, “Song of Lanyou. She came, at last!”

A woman with white hair was seen above the clouds. She blew xiao, a bamboo flute, while walking to her. Her eyes were deep and dark. Her white hair danced in the wind.

The sound of xiao was more beautiful than sounds of nature. And a sense of solumnity also could be perceived from it, as if a powerful army was riding with her.
