Chapter 645
Chapter 646
After observing for roughly this month, the Empress found that Xia Feng was indeed an outstanding prodigy among humans. She was willing to acknowledge this believer accepted by her main body. However, believers should stick to their roles and not overstep any boundaries.
Unfortunately, her main body could not properly guide Xia Feng’s behavior. Instead, it had fallen to the point of mutual desire with Xia Feng, betraying its divine virtue and violating the Dragon God’s laws! She still remembered how, under the World Tree, the wicked believer had forcefully straddled the Ninth Generation’s legs, and her legs too, bowing his head to kiss her, committing an act of blasphemy!
This believer’s current boundless arrogance and recklessness were likely inseparable from the Ninth Generation’s indulgence and fall. Therefore, since the fallen main body could not discipline this madman, she, the remnant spirit, would do it! Believers should behave like believers!
“So, what did you say to me?” Xia Feng feigned ignorance, not knowing what the Empress was thinking. “Also, esteemed Heavenly Martial Empress, have we met before?”
“I said,” the vertical pupils of the woman on the imperial seat looked down with an icy indifference that made Xia Feng’s neck prickle and his heart tighten, “I will find you and grant you despair.”
Xia Feng’s expression remained unchanged. “Your Majesty, I believe I have no enmity with you. Are you perhaps mistaking me for someone else?”
“Oh?” The woman in the imperial dress leaned back lazily. “Human, you dared to commit blasphemy against me under the World Tree and speak so wildly. Why are you afraid now?”
Afraid? Heh, a mere remnant spirit, and it wants me to feel fear? Ridiculous! Xia Feng considered himself a person of gentle courtesy, always respectful to his teachers, Divine Masters, and even monarchs. He was merely showing this ruler the respect she deserved now. Well, that was it.
However, it seemed this Empress had no intention of letting that day’s incident go. Lost in thought, Xia Feng smiled. “Esteemed Your Majesty, you went to the trouble of activating the Astral Gate and bringing me to the Heavenly Revelation Divine Palace. You must not have done so just to punish me for that minor transgression, right?”
Minor incident? The woman on the imperial seat narrowed her vertical pupils. This believer managed to deepen her divine fury with every word. It was a peculiar talent, indeed. Unfortunately, this arrogant believer still had not understood the situation.
“Tap—” A crisp sound, like knuckles tapping a armrest, instantly struck Xia Feng’s eardrums. Before he could react, four law chains shot out from the void, binding his limbs, stretching him out in a,” shape, and rapidly lifting him into the air.
As he ascended, his clothes were forcibly torn apart, instantly exploding into shreds that dispersed and drifted away. Under the Empress’s indifferent vertical pupils watching from above the clouds, the feeling of being exposed instantly brought Xia Feng shame. He struggled to bring his legs together, but the strength of the chains was beyond his ability to resist.
At the same time, his expression changed slightly. The law chains directly revealed his true form. A dragon tail hidden within his spirit body appeared at the base of his spine, straightening and curling upwards like a startled cat’s.
“It seems that you, you shameless scoundrel, do understand shame,” the woman on the imperial seat said calmly. Her vertical pupils glanced at the dragon tail behind Xia Feng, and she couldn’t help but pause. She recalled the memories transmitted by her main body earlier; the fallen main body had not yet coupled with Xia Feng. However, the main body had touched Xia Feng’s dragon tail. As the memory resurfaced, she inexplicably felt a familiar sensation in her palm and couldn’t help but furrow her delicate brows. She then subconsciously glanced at Xia Feng’s dragon tail, her indifferent vertical pupils showing a hint of disdain.
Xia Feng felt the Empress’s gaze and the fleeting expression, clearly implying, “So short.” “!!!” His inner shame reached its peak. Gritting his teeth, he understood that this remnant spirit intended to humiliate him completely, to avenge the blasphemy from that day. He didn’t know what outrageous things she would do next.
However, just as he was frantically contemplating a countermeasure, the Empress’s pale vertical pupils narrowed slightly as she saw something. She asked lightly, “Hmm?”
Under the Empress’s forceful mental manipulation, the back of Xia Feng’s hand shimmered with a rose-red spirit pattern, transforming into a red-dressed woman of enchanting and captivating beauty. The woman in the red dress, with sleepy eyes, blinked and looked dazedly at Xia Feng, who was suspended in mid-air in a,” shape, with nothing on. She tilted her head, “Master, is this your new hobby?”
Xia Feng looked helplessly at Yue Hongli. “What do you think?”
“I think this new hobby isn’t very good,” Yue Hongli thought seriously, frowning with concern. “Master, have you lost your mind?”
“!” Xia Feng sighed. “I must say, Little Carp, you are quite cute when you’re not talking.”
Hearing the master and servant’s completely disregarded chatter, the Empress didn’t seem to mind. She merely stared at Yue Hongli with amusement, then looked at Xia Feng. “It’s quite interesting that you managed to get her to pledge allegiance to you.”
Xia Feng looked up, his black eyes narrowing. “What, does Your Majesty know her?”
“She’s the subordinate personality of Star God Gui Hua. After falling into the Imaginary River, it’s highly likely that very few people in this world remember her now.”
“!”
“But you still remember, Your Majesty,” Xia Feng said with a smile. Yue Hongli’s past had always been a mystery. Currently, besides knowing that the Mother of the Golden Sparrow Flower, one of the seven great power factions, was Star God Gui Hua’s master, he knew no other specific information. However, judging by the Ninth Generation, she seemed to know a lot about Star God Gui Hua. Perhaps he could get some information from this Empress? Xia Feng pondered in his heart.
“Perhaps this is fate,” the woman on the imperial seat said, leaning back on her divine seat. She casually pointed, and Yue Hongli uncontrollably floated into the air. In an instant, her figure flickered, and she appeared before the Dragon Head Divine Seat. Yue Hongli’s clear and beautiful little face remained calm. She could distinctly feel an alarming and terrifying pressure emanating from the woman before her. However, it was still far less than that of her master, the Divine Master.
The Empress extended a slender finger and gently tapped Yue Hongli’s brow. The touch was cold. She could sense that this Dragon God remnant spirit was attempting to forcefully seize the Gui Hua Calamity Contract from her, wanting to become her master. Seeing this, Yue Hongli stared at the Empress in confusion. “Are you an idiot? You’re just a remnant spirit, not the Dragon God’s main body. How could you possibly succeed?”
“!!!” This was the first time the Empress had been directly called an idiot. And seeing Yue Hongli’s sincere expression, it wasn’t an insult but genuine belief that she was an idiot.
The Empress shook her head and waved Yue Hongli away, releasing her. “Fine.” Her pale vertical pupils once again looked down at Xia Feng. She pondered, “If I dissolve your master-servant contract with Gui Hua, I will no longer pursue your act of blasphemy. How about it?”
Xia Feng blinked, and a smile slowly hooked onto his lips. He already had a plan in mind. “I will not.”
