青青青伊人色综合久久

On the throne, the Ziyue Empress’s gaze was incomparably cold.

She was truly beautiful, dressed in imperial robes, with long purple hair that resembled the stars.

Her eyes were icy, containing the essence of stars, making them exceptionally beautiful.

“So, the esteemed Blood Sword King has arrived. What, are you not afraid that our ancestral patriarch will suppress and kill you all?”

The Ziyue Empress spoke coldly, her gaze sweeping icily over the group of ministers and numerous nobles, her eyes filled with undisguised disappointment.

“And you all, I never expected that you would betray the Ziyue Dynasty. Have you forgotten the favors bestowed upon you by the previous emperor?”

“A bunch of traitors!”

The Ziyue Empress shouted sternly.

Below, the group of ministers remained silent, their eyes flickering, showing no signs of remorse on their faces.

Meanwhile, the group of nobles sneered.

“Your Majesty, the Empress, you are too stubborn. The Blood Sword Dynasty is a top-tier power, with two Saints overseeing it. How could our nation possibly resist? If we continue to struggle, the only outcome is death!”

A noble said indifferently.

He was a powerful king within the Ziyue Dynasty, at the peak of the Eternal Realm, holding significant authority. The previous emperor had high expectations for him.

“Indeed, Your Majesty, the Empress. If you wish to die along with the Ziyue Dynasty, we won’t stop you, but we do not wish to die. We still have thousands of years of lifespan left!”

Another noble said indifferently.

Among those present, the expressions of the nobles and ministers varied, their eyes flickering. They were all powerful figures, at least at the Dharma Phase or Void Fusion stages, and some even at the Eternal Realm.

Lifespans of two to three thousand years, or even several thousand years.

With such long lifespans, combined with their powerful cultivation and significant authority, how could they possibly be willing to perish along with the Ziyue Dynasty?

Therefore, when the Blood Sword Dynasty’s army approached the city, a group of ministers and nobles, under the coercion and enticement of the Blood Sword Dynasty, chose to rebel and brought the enemy to force the palace.

“Ziyue Empress, you should save your efforts. Do you think your ancestral patriarch can still protect you?”

At this moment, the blood-haired young man shook his head.

He was the Blood Sword King, the direct descendant of the Blood Sword Emperor, with astonishing talent. Now, at three thousand years old, he was already a dominant figure at the peak of the Eternal Realm.

“What do you mean?”

The Ziyue Empress’s beautiful face changed slightly. In the next second, she suddenly stood up, unleashing a terrifying aura.

The entire imperial palace roared with the dragon energy of thousands, the imperial aura boiling, resonating with her own, erupting with a terrifying might akin to that of a Saint.

But no one paid it any mind.

For, silently and without warning, a figure shrouded in darkness appeared. He casually tossed out a blood-stained head, and with a single glance, all the imposing auras were dispelled.

“Thank you, Senior, for your intervention!”

The Blood Sword King’s expression was respectful as he bowed towards the figure shrouded in darkness, his attitude extremely deferential.

There was even a hint of reverence in his demeanor.

“I am merely doing my job for the money!”

The voice from the darkness replied coldly, its tone hoarse and grating to the ears.

But no one present dared to voice any objections. On the contrary, each person lowered their head deeply, fearing to attract his attention.

This was because he was a terrifying Saint of the Killing Dao, hailing from the legendary assassin organization—Heavenly Kingdom.

It was his intervention that allowed the silent assassination of the Ziyue Dynasty’s ancestral patriarch.

“Ancestral Patriarch!”

Seeing the head that had fallen to the ground, the Ziyue Empress’s eyes immediately turned red, filled with immense grief and rage. She wished she could roar to the heavens and slaughter all her enemies.

For that head belonged to the ancestral patriarch of the Ziyue Dynasty, a Saint-level ancestor.

The Ziyue Dynasty had once been incredibly glorious and prosperous, nearing the status of a top-tier power, not only because the previous emperor was on the verge of becoming a Saint.

But also because the Ziyue Dynasty had been secretly protected by an elderly Saint ancestor.

Although this Saint was extremely old and could only make a few moves, he was still a significant threat.

When the Blood Sword Dynasty’s army had previously approached the city, he had secretly intervened and forced them to retreat.

But now, this ancestral patriarch who had protected the Ziyue Dynasty had been killed by the Blood Sword Dynasty’s powerful figures.

“Who are you!”

The Ziyue Empress shouted sternly, her anger boundless. Divine radiance erupted from her body, purple light surging, as if a divine moon was rising within her.

The dragon energy and imperial aura of the heavens and earth roared towards her, resonating with her, causing the entire imperial city to tremble. A might nearly equivalent to that of a Saint swept through the area.

Within the imperial city, the Ziyue Empress could harness the power of the dragon energy and imperial aura to bolster herself. Combined with the strength of her Ziyue Divine Physique, she could unleash power nearly comparable to that of a Saint.

“Heh, heh, as expected of the Ziyue Divine Physique, truly impressive. But unfortunately, you are merely a small figure at the Eternal Realm. No matter how extraordinary you are, it is useless!”

The figure shrouded in darkness laughed hoarsely. Then, he simply raised his hand and struck, unleashing an overwhelming wave of dark light that effortlessly neutralized her attack.

Boom!

Immediately after, he casually pointed a finger, and a terrifying beam of light pierced through everything, causing the Ziyue Empress’s delicate body to tremble. Her face turned pale, and the protective dragon energy was dispersed.

“Saint!”

The Ziyue Empress gritted her teeth, feeling unwillingness in her heart.

She indeed was no match for a Saint. Even though the opponent had only casually struck, he could still easily defeat her.

“Protect the Empress!”

In the court, some ministers and nobles also shouted. They were among the few who stood by the Empress’s side. Additionally, many guards, shadow guards, and hidden royal experts emerged.

One by one, they appeared, unleashing their auras to protect the Ziyue Empress.

“A bunch of ants!”

The figure shrouded in darkness shook his head, intending to kill them all with a single palm strike.

“Senior, please spare the Ziyue Empress’s life!”

Seeing this, the Blood Sword King’s expression changed, and he spoke anxiously, fearing that this senior might kill the Ziyue Empress.

“Rest assured, since I have promised that old fellow Blood Sword, I will not go back on my word!”

The figure in the darkness said.

“However, that old fellow must also keep his promise to me, or he shouldn’t blame me for being ruthless!”

A chilling killing intent spread, as if it had triggered the laws of slaughter, erupting with a terrifying coldness.

The Blood Sword King couldn’t help but shiver.

He could only hope that his father would be reliable and not mess things up.

Otherwise, offending a Saint of the Killing Dao, especially one from the terrifying Heavenly Kingdom organization, would result in the Blood Sword Dynasty being completely annihilated, no matter how powerful it was.

“Little one, will you surrender yourself, or shall I cripple you and then drag you back to the Blood Sword Dynasty?”

The figure in the darkness looked at the Ziyue Empress, speaking in an indifferent tone.

“……”

The Ziyue Empress’s beautiful face was icy cold, surrounded by her subordinates, who looked tense and fearful.

Facing a terrifying Saint of the Killing Dao, no one could remain calm.

At this moment, the Ziyue Empress’s delicate eyebrows slightly raised, as if she had received some news. Her previously icy face suddenly revealed a charming smile.

That smile was incomparably beautiful, causing everyone present to feel somewhat dazzled and entranced.

The Ziyue Empress’s beauty was considered top-tier in the world. Coupled with her status as the Empress, even those at the Eternal Realm, and even Saints, found it hard to resist her allure.

“Do you really think you have me cornered?” the Ziyue Empress said.

“Oh, you have a backup plan? I am very curious to know what kind of backup plan gives you such confidence!”

The voice from the figure shrouded in darkness revealed a hint of surprise, as if genuinely astonished.

A mere peak Eternal Realm cultivator.

And a mere first-rate power, having an elderly Saint ancestor on the brink of death was already quite impressive. Could there really be another backup plan?

The Blood Sword King and others also frowned.

Although they didn’t believe the Empress had any means to turn the tables, seeing her confident smile made their hearts pound with a sense of foreboding.

“Senior Changsheng, please take action!”

Just as the Blood Sword King and others felt an ominous premonition, the Ziyue Empress slightly bowed, speaking respectfully.

“Mhm!”

A calm voice echoed from the void.

The voice exploded in everyone’s ears like a thunderclap, causing all to reveal expressions of shock and astonishment.

Su Changsheng?
