Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou

"Big sister!"

The twin-headed piglet that had just emerged from the Divine Coffin, showed a sycophantic smile on both its faces, stretching out a small Dragon Claw while its elongated pig eyes expressed hopefulness.

"What is it?"

Chu Xin looked puzzled.

The smile on the twin-headed piglet's faces suddenly stiffened as it exclaimed urgently, "Big sister, you can't go back on your word! You promised me a Ninth Rank Illusion Beast Crystal Core, you can't deceive my innocent heart."

"Oh, you mean that."

Chu Xin suddenly realized, waved her snow-white hand, and a row of Ninth Rank Illusion Beast Crystal Cores hovered in the air as she said boldly, "Pick any, choose any."

"Big sister is so domineering."

The twin-headed piglet's eyes lit up immediately, it brought its two small Dragon Claws together and bowed to Chu Xin. Then its small body soared into the air, circling those Crystal Cores, enlarging its narrow pig eyes as it surveyed them.

"It's you."

Ultimately, it chose the Crystal Core from the Illusion Phoenix.

The Crystal Core radiated with a blazing aura of flames, matching its original attributes. By devouring this Crystal Core, perhaps its Flame Law could transform into Flame Rules.

By then, with the Rule Power of both fire and thunder in his control, its strength would increase significantly.

"Hmm, this one's not bad."

Chu Xin glanced at it and nodded. Although these Ninth Rank Illusion Beasts seemed insignificant before her, the power of the Illusion Phoenix was still quite impressive among them. She waved her hand and gathered all the remaining Crystal Cores.

These were all valuable items that could be used to help her mother when she returned to Big Stone Village and also given to the village's uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters, as well as Elder Yellow, Big Yellow, and Little Yellow.

"Thank you, big sister."

The twin-headed piglet bowed to Chu Xin again and then swallowed the Illusion Phoenix Crystal Core in one gulp.

Boom!

Blazing flames rose from its body, heating up the space around it.

Chu Xin raised her snowy white hand, ready to place it back into the Divine Coffin, but on second thought, this fellow, having devoured the Illusion Beast Crystal Core, definitely needed to absorb a massive amount of Illusion God's Power, so staying outside was better.

Although the Illusion God's Heart had been taken by her, the power of the Illusion God in the surrounding Illusion God Mountain Range would not be depleted anytime soon. Aside from the Illusion Beasts constantly hitting the Prohibition in the Illusion God Abyss, there were no other anomalies.

Only when the Illusion Beasts in the Illusion God Mountain Range had absorbed a large amount of the Illusion God's Power, causing it to gradually thin out, would they start to notice something was off.

"Brother, is the meat roasted yet?"

Chu Xin turned to Chu Chen and asked eagerly.

"It's ready."

Chu Chen picked up a roasted leg much bigger than themselves and said with a grin.

While Chu Xin and his Battle Body had been fighting the group of Ninth Rank Illusion Beasts, he had been roasting meat inside the Divine Coffin.

"It smells so good."

Chu Xin picked up the massive roasted leg, took a whiff, and seemed to detect a fragrance quite distinct from other Illusion Beast meats, which was very comforting.

She opened her mouth, revealing two rows of small, white teeth, and took a big bite. After chewing twice, her round eyes instantly narrowed, immensely enjoying it.

"This is way too delicious, many times better than Eighth Rank Illusion Beast meat."

She said indistinctly.

"Sister, there's also Ninth Rank Illusion Beast Blood Soup, try that too."

Chu Chen brought over a bowl of steaming Blood Soup.

Chu Xin took a sip of the Blood Soup, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she shook her head, unable to say anything. After struggling for a while, she finally managed to say, "It's so delicious."

Upon hearing this, a joyful smile appeared in Chu Chen's round eyes.

More than the taste, he was happier that his grilled meat and the Blood Soup he cooked were praised by his sister.

Then he also picked up a piece of grilled meat, eating it while continuing to turn the meat on the grill.

After eating their fill, Chu Xin, rubbing her little belly, suggested, "Brother, let's go for a walk and try to find a way to Longzhou."

Now that the Gathering God Pond had just devoured the Illusion God's power and needed a few days to transform, they had almost finished their barbecue―it was indeed time to explore.

Although they knew the other side of the Illusion God Mountain Range was the Central Dragon State Sea, they had never been there and needed to find the right path first.

"Sister, are you planning to go through State Sea? Not going to the Imperial City to take the Transmission Array to Longzhou?"

Chu Chen asked, puzzled.

Chu Xin rolled her eyes and said annoyed, "Silly brother, are you dumb? We emptied out the Empress's treasury, it must have been discovered by now. Returning to the Imperial City now would be like walking into a trap as Dad said."

"Oh!"

Chu Chen nodded, then asked again, puzzled, "Walking into a trap? What does that mean?"

Chu Xin, frustrated, said, "I told you to read more books, but you wouldn't listen. Now you can't even understand words? Once we save mom, once we're back in Big Stone Village, you must read every day. Dad said if you don't study well, you won't even understand when people insult you."

"Reading is tiring; it's not as fun as practicing with a blade or barbecuing."

Chu Chen muttered softly. Seeing that Chu Xin wanted to lecture him again, he quickly asked again, "Sister, you haven't explained what walking into a trap means?"

Chu Xin glared at him and explained, "It means the Empress sends people to set up a huge Array like a net using Arrays, and if we foolishly return, we will be caught by that Array net. That's what is meant by walking into a trap. Got it?"

"I see, I got it."

Chu Chen suddenly realized, but then asked again, puzzled, "Sister, is that Array net very powerful? Couldn't we just smash it apart?"

"That seems to make sense."

Chu Xin was dumbfounded, blinked her round eyes, thought deeply for a moment, then shook her head and said, "No, Dad said walking into a trap is a very stupid act, only fools would do it. We're not fools, so we can't walk into it. Even if we could smash the net, it wouldn't be okay."

"Oh!"

Chu Chen nodded his head, repeated "walking into a trap" a few times, and couldn't help but ask puzzledly, "Sister, did Dad really say that?"

Although he couldn't remember many things Dad had said, these words always sounded a bit odd to him.

"Of course, I wouldn't remember it wrong."

Chu Xin said earnestly, very confidently.

"Okay then."

Chu Chen scratched his head and didn't pursue the matter further. Anyway, he couldn't recall such words from Dad himself, and since his sister's memory was so good, she must be right.

"Let's go."

With a wave of her white little hand, Chu Xin left several Battle Bodies to guard the piglets and the Gathering God Pond, which had resumed absorbing the Illusion God's power, then leisurely set off flying towards the other side of the Illusion God Mountain Range with Chu Chen, drinking Beast Milk.

"Eh? Is there someone?"

After flying for a while, Chu Xin's eyes suddenly gleamed with surprise.

"From Longzhou?"

Chu Chen, looking at the group of people ahead wearing Blood Demon Masks and the same garments as the Longzhou Cultivators they had encountered last time in the Illusion God Mountain Range, asked.
