Chapter 396: Chapter 222: Madam, don’t you want to…?_2

A blue radiance sped through the dense fog, heading toward a magnificent Dragon Chariot in the void.

In the blink of an eye, it arrived inside the chariot.

“My husband has returned. Was the hunt successful?”

Seeing the newcomer, Liu Luoxin brushed a strand of hair aside and smiled beautifully.

Lu Li smiled and nodded, taking a seat on the jade couch.

“This battle was a total victory, there will no longer be the Five Great Emperors.”

Upon hearing these words, Liu Luoxin’s face flushed with excitement.

With the Da Yu Immortal Dynasty’s Five Great Emperors becoming history, it marked the official demise of the entire dynasty.

Their Daqian Immortal Dynasty’s rise was now unstoppable.

With vast resources at their disposal, she too might have a chance to peer into the path of the Nascent Soul.

While the two conversed,

Off in the distance, Xue Jingshi, accompanied by numerous Golden Core Venerables, flew swiftly over.

“We pay our respects to the Emperor.”

The many Golden Core Venerables stood before the Dragon Chariot, their faces filled with reverence as they knelt in the void.

“Dear subjects, rise. You also contributed to this victory, and I shall not skimp on your rewards.”

Lu Li smiled faintly, his right arm gently encircling Liu Luoxin’s waist.

“All the spoils of war are to be given to the Empress, and after a month we will discuss merits and rewards…”

“We obey the command.”

Loud cheers echoed through the skies as the people, led by Xue Jingshi, placed their Storage Bags on the chariot’s clamps.

Then, one by one, they retired.

It wasn’t until evening that they finished tallying all the spoils of war.

Every cultivator’s face was brimming with smiles.

After this battle, the Daqian Immortal Dynasty was destined to soar, and they could also rise up with the help of Spiritual Items Resources, hastening their cultivation progress.

Seeing no cultivators approaching, Lu Li drove the nine Hornless Dragons toward the Emperor Palace.

Several hours later,

The Emperor Palace came into view.

The Dragon Chariot carried Lu Li and his companion to an open area in front of the palace.

Lu Li led Liu Luoxin down, about to return to the palace.

Suddenly, he saw a middle-aged man in black armor, resembling a commander, flying quickly from a distant side palace.

“Your subordinate pays respects to the Emperor and Empress.”

As he approached, the middle-aged man immediately knelt down, his face filled with reverence.

“What’s the matter?”

Lu Li stood with his hands behind his back, his expression imposing.

He recognized this man as one of the commanders of the Azure Dragon Army, with a Golden Core’s peak cultivation.

Before the war began, he had specifically instructed him to guard the palace.

The man’s presence suggested that some people were causing trouble again.

“The side palace of Yue Wuxi has anomalies. I have led the army and surrounded it, awaiting your instructions, my Emperor.”

The middle-aged man quickly explained the situation.

As expected, his answer confirmed Lu Li’s suspicions.

“Seeking death.”

Hearing this, Liu Luoxin’s phoenix eyes glinted fiercely.

“After all the grace my husband has shown them by providing refuge, if they are restless, then grant them all death.”

Sensing Liu Luoxin’s formidable aura, the middle-aged man’s face sweated profusely.

As Lu Li’s influence grew stronger, Liu Luoxin’s prestige rose along with it, making everyone in the dynasty greatly fear them.

“Don’t be upset, Xin Er. I’ll handle this.”

Lu Li smiled lightly and walked towards the side palace.

Soon, Lu Li crossed numerous Jade Avenues, under the admiring gazes of many maids, arriving at a large side palace.

He stepped inside

and saw a group of beautiful women gathered around Yue Wuxi, their faces ashen.

Days earlier, they had received news of Da Yu Immortal Dynasty’s defeat.

Lu Li’s forceful obliteration of the Four Great Emperors had left everyone profoundly shocked.

Their plans hadn’t even started when they were doomed.

Thinking back to their high hopes a few days ago, the women felt like they were in an ice pit.

Moreover, without having taken any action, they were already surrounded by external military forces, clearly indicating the enemy’s preparedness.

This plunged everyone into deep despair.

Seeing Lu Li appear, the women’s faces were filled with terror.

Only Yue Wuxi in the center remained calm and composed.

“You have arrived. Very impressive skills and strength, Guan Yuanhong is not even a thousandth of your equal.”

“It seems I was too merciful, giving you chances was useless.”

Lu Li spoke coldly.

“In the world of winners and losers, falling into your hands, we never expected a good outcome,” said a woman in purple, her face full of disdain.

“Very well, very well…”

Lu Li, without hesitation, spewed forth a pure white flame, directing it violently toward the group of women.

The Divine Skill, Samadhi True Fire, had been refined with vast amounts of Spiritual Objects to an extremely terrifying state.

Eliminating regular Golden Cores was effortlessly easy.

“Ahh… you will not have a good outcome either, I’m waiting for you…”

The flames rapidly enveloped the woman in purple, frantically burning her up, instantly turning her into ash.

Her curses still echoed through the area.

Subsequently, True Fire transformed into a fire dragon that wound its way over the bodies of many women.

“Ah…”

Screams echoed all around, and soon all the women turned to ash.

Only Yue Wuxi was left standing in the same spot, her eyes closed, her face set with a resolve for death.

“Why don’t you kill me?”

After a moment, seeing that death had not come, she opened her eyes, puzzled.

She knew that with the crimes she had committed, survival was not an option.

“A Golden Core Empress at her peak is too valuable to kill.”

Lu Li gave a faint smile.

“From now on, you will be my slave.”

“You wish, just kill me.”

Yue Wuxi’s face hardened, a trace of scorn appearing at the corner of her mouth.

As a former Empress, she had her own dignity.

The thought of others enslaving her was absurd.

“I’ve heard you have a beautiful daughter, who is much loved by you…”

Lu Li said indifferently, his hands behind his back.

“Madam, you wouldn’t want…”

“You are an Emperor, how can you be so despicable!”

Yue Wuxi gritted her teeth, her eyes flaming with anger.

“Despicable? I always reason with my enemies.”

“According to the laws of the Immortal Dynasty, the descendants of the criminals are all sent to the mines, until their life ends.”

Before he finished speaking, Lu Li turned and briskly walked towards the hall’s entrance.

Seeing this, Yue Wuxi’s face filled with despair, her fists tightly clenched, her delicate body beginning to tremble.

“What do you want?”

She bit down hard on her teeth, and after spitting out these few words, she collapsed on the ground as if she had exhausted all her strength.

“What do I want?”

Lu Li gave an evil smile, quickly stepping in front of Yue Wuxi.

“From now on, you are Moon Slave.”

Then, he reached straight for her purple dress.

“Hisss…”

Her dress was brutally torn, falling to the ground.

Revealing a beautiful woman, her face half-hidden like a skillful lute player, her eyes filled with strands of desperation, eliciting a mix of pity and sorrow.

“I still prefer the unyielding look in your eyes from before.”

Lu Li chuckled darkly, rapidly reaching for her pink mandarin duck bellyband and viciously tearing it off.

A figure lay displayed on the ground, as though it were merchandise.

He didn’t hesitate, rushing forward and beginning to brutally ravage her.

“Ah…”

Yue Wuxi’s wails filled the entire palace.

Mixed with loud crashing sounds, like a volcanic eruption, the commotion was shocking.

It lasted an entire day and night.

…

…

…

That day, in the early morning, as the sun rose, streaks of golden light scattered across the earth.

On a jade couch in a side hall.

Yue Wuxi slowly opened her eyes, feeling as if her body was falling apart, waves of sharp pain coming and making her furrow her brow.

Her gaze swept over her body; it was covered in bruises, horribly disfigured.

The brutality of last night’s actions was evident.

Even her Golden Core cultivation couldn’t withstand it.

“Will Your Majesty spare my daughter?”

Yue Wuxi asked hesitantly, her eyes filled with hope.

“Open your mind, I have placed a restriction.”

Lu Li’s gaze was icy.

Hearing this, Yue Wuxi struggled for a while.

After a short time, she sighed softly and closed her eyes.

By then she had no options left; any further resistance would probably make her and her daughter’s life worse than death.

Seeing this, Lu Li immediately unleashed several beams of light, shooting toward her mind.

They quickly disappeared.

“Ah…”

As Yue Wuxi cried out repeatedly, the soul restriction was fully engraved.

Feeling the bindings deep within her soul, Yue Wuxi no longer harbored any thoughts of resistance.

With a face full of reverence, she propped herself up and knelt down.

“From now on, you are Moon Slave.”

Lu Li looked indifferent as he rose and walked out of the hall.

“Your daughter can stay in the side hall. I will keep my promise not to hurt her unless necessary.”

His figure stepped out of the hall, leaving those words echoing through the air.

“Moon Slave thanks her master.”

Yue Wuxi bowed repeatedly, a glimmer of light appearing in her eyes.
