MTLNOVEL Chapter 527
Chapter 527: The Empress’s Confession!
“To the brilliant person!”
The Empress tossed the talisman in her hand, instantly bursting forth with resplendent light.
Suddenly, countless figures materialized in the void, standing benevolently behind Zhong Ningxue, their spiritual power blending together, vast as an ocean, sweeping through heaven and earth!
“You…”
Zhong Ningxue’s eyes brimmed with tears as she gazed at her kin behind her, feeling enveloped in warm light, filled with boundless strength.
“I said it before, we will always be with you. We will always be your power. Go fight, go win!”
“Virgin Saint, go win!”
In an instant, the voices of the Heavenly Gu Clan resounded through the sky, the power of belief surging forth, all converging into Zhong Ningxue’s body, causing her aura to swell once more, completing the reversal!
“Millennia of Silent Destruction Gu!”
With a thunderous roar, the dark spiritual energy surged, relentlessly pushing back the demonic energy, taking absolute control and reversing the tide of battle!
“What makes you ghosts think you can stand against me?”
The Celestial King’s eyes blazed with rage, frantically burning his essence, betting everything to confront her, despite managing to hold on, both sides fell into a stalemate once again.
“I will never lose! I will never lose! What gives you the right to fight me!!”
He shouted in furious disbelief, not expecting things to escalate to this point. The Virgin Saint of the Heavenly Gu Clan seemed to possess boundless fortune, always able to escape dire situations and absurdly grow stronger!
“It’s time to end this, you filthy monster! It’s time you report to hell.”
At this moment, the Empress’s voice came, having already appeared at the Celestial King’s side.
“Arrogant! Your strength is nothing more than a firefly’s glow to me. What can you do?”
Before her words faded, the Empress coldly smiled and took out another talisman from her bosom.
“Spirit Seal 96, the Cruel Sun!”
As a blazing sun rose, the Celestial King’s expression immediately changed, feeling a power from it that could shake him to the core.
“Stop it!”
“I am not your ancestor; why should I indulge you? But I can send you to meet your ancestors!”
As her voice fell, the Empress mercilessly pressed down the sun, forcefully striking the Celestial King.
In an instant, his aura crumbled, becoming chaotic and completely losing the strength to resist Zhong Ningxue.
“Good opportunity!!”
Zhong Ningxue’s radiant eyes sparkled, stepping into the air with an overwhelming presence, seizing the advantage!
“No… it can’t be!!”
Fear flashed in the Celestial King’s eyes as he realized he was truly at his wit’s end. The demonic energy enveloping him was dissipating, his body collapsing, teetering on the brink of death.
“Help me!!”
In his final moments, he relinquished all dignity, loudly begging the void for assistance from the strong within his clan.
“Humph! What a useless wretch!”
“No need to say more, it’s time for us to act. This woman is a calamity; if she is not eliminated, she will surely become a root of disaster for our clan. We absolutely cannot let her go today!”
As the words fell, seven powerful auras suddenly descended, surrounding the Empress and Zhong Ningxue!
“Die!”
Several individuals acted simultaneously, preparing to unleash a devastating strike!
Each of them possessed strength surpassing Moze, clearly all members of the personal guard!
“Haha… in the end, it will still be you who dies!”
The Celestial King sneered, his eyes gleaming with pride. This wave of joint attacks would guarantee the death of the Empress and Zhong Ningxue.
“Hey, how long are you going to watch the show?”
The Empress’s face paled slightly as her gaze turned towards Zhou Tong’s location.
At her words, everyone present suddenly jolted.
“Master is here!”
Zhong Ningxue’s lips curled upward, feeling certain of victory.
The other demonic clan members looked momentarily stunned, confusedly scanning their surroundings.
“I know, this is the human race’s tactic of diversion, meant to distract us. Don’t fall for their tricks; strike quickly!”
The Celestial King roared, unable to hold on any longer!
“Exactly, don’t give them a chance to buy time!”
A member of the personal guard nodded and acted without hesitation; the other six followed suit, launching a destructive strike!
Just then, a shadow suddenly appeared, like a falling meteor, crashing heavily onto the void!
Such immense power erupted that it didn’t tear the void apart. Instead, it formed mysterious ripples, layer upon layer expanding like a barrier, protecting the Empress and Zhong Ningxue at its center.
“Fourfold Divine Power Ring!”
Zhou Tong’s divine rings appeared behind him, shining in all directions. Between every two waves, a domain of gravitational resistance formed, and the closer one got to him, the stronger the obstructive force!
The powerful demonic energies collided against it, breaking through the waves but instantly consuming massive amounts of energy, diminishing with every step forward, ultimately failing to exceed the fourfold waves, being completely exhausted!
“You’re finished!”
Zhong Ningxue revealed a brilliant smile, in the Celestial King’s eyes, however, it appeared as the face of a reaper!
In that moment, she surged her power to its peak, overwhelming her opponent entirely!
“Ahhh!!!”
The Celestial King let out a desperate scream, and his physical body was torn asunder, like fragile foam, vanishing under the blazing sun!
Thus, all nine Celestial Kings of the demonic race had been slain!
“Master, I did it!”
Having achieved the kill, Zhong Ningxue’s aura suddenly diminished, becoming extremely weak.
The previous explosive effort had drained all her energy, yet even so, her face was filled with joy.
“Well done!”
Zhou Tong rarely praised her, leaving her momentarily stunned, chuckling foolishly.
“Guest Senior, guest senior… come praise me too!”
The Empress would not let this opportunity for merriment pass; she transformed into her blue form, rushing over at high speed and pushing Zhong Ningxue out of the way.
The next moment, she crashed into Zhou Tong’s embrace, and this time he did not push her away. Instead, he casually wrapped his arm around her shoulder and leg, lifting her gently into his arms.
“Hehe…”
The originally regal and aloof Empress seemed like a cheerful little girl at this moment, her face flushed as she gazed up at Zhou Tong’s face. This was the first time she had received such a response from her beloved.
“How did you know I was already here?” Zhou Tong asked with a smile.
“Connected hearts… perhaps it was destined… Ah!”
Before she could finish, Zhou Tong lightly bumped his chin against her forehead.
“Stop talking nonsense; tell me the truth!”
“Hmm… alright!”
The Empress rubbed her forehead and then lifted her sleeve, revealing a tiny segment of red thread.
“What is this… Red Dust Lock?”
Zhou Tong’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“I secretly took this from the demoness. With this, I can sense your presence.”
“Damn…”
Zhou Tong gasped, “Is that really possible?”
“This should be a characteristic of the Dragon Bone Phoenix Body; it can absorb special energy from others. I originally tried it as a shot in the dark, but I didn’t expect it to actually work.”
Hearing this, Zhou Tong couldn’t help but marvel, “I never thought Yue’er would allow you to do this.”
“Of course, it’s because I am so charming!”
The Empress’s face reddened even more as she gently tugged at Zhou Tong’s collar, saying, “This tiny segment of the Red Dust Lock looks rather lonely; why don’t you help complete it?”
