Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 703 - 702: The White Emperor Driven Mad
Southern Diaspora, Wuji Sect.
Bai Yisheng, who was practicing his swordsmanship, suddenly received an order from Hongxiu. He paused, then ended his cultivation session and approached her.
Elsewhere, Wen Qingshan also received an escort mission.
Hongxiu instructed, "Within an hour, you must deliver Bai Yisheng to the lands of Huangzhou. Can you do it?"
"Are you insulting my Void Body?" Wen Qingshan was indignant. "Crossing the Void, even a distance of 100,000 li, would only take me a few minutes."
A hint of pride welled up within him. After so many years in the Wuji Sect, he could finally be of use. Damn it! Otherwise, he'd have almost forgotten he was a Void Body.
Hongxiu smiled. "Set off, and keep a low profile when you get there; after all, it's someone else's territory."
Both nodded; they naturally understood this principle.
「On the other hand, in the Southern Region.」
Strangely, this area hadn't seen Yaos breaking through to Great Yao realms for a long time, yet recently, calamities had descended more than a dozen times. Each time was more terrifying than the last, and the affected area grew ever larger.
The White Emperor had set up defenses dozens of times, even bringing out Emperor Weapons. Yet, she still ended up utterly battered, her hair disheveled and clothes tattered.
That day, the calamity gathered again, spanning tens of thousands of li. She opened her mouth slightly, gazing at the sky. She felt slightly suffocated and even more exhausted. Then she burst into a tirade like a shrew, "Spirit Jade! Spirit Jade! Just throw her out! This Empress wants her dead!"
She had gone mad. But how could she not? Ever since that little girl arrived, not only was she causing endless trouble, but she also screamed every day wanting to eat rabbit meat. For crying out loud... Her true form was a snow rabbit, and yet this girl wanted to eat rabbit meat every day? If that little girl wanted to eat a Great Yao from some clan, she could have easily sliced off a piece to cook. That wouldn't be a big problem. But she insisted on eating rabbits.
In a fit of anger, the White Emperor suppressed her, only for a calamity to arrive the next day. At first, she thought someone in Monster Emperor City was undergoing a tribulation.
On the third day, a calamity came again.
The White Emperor exclaimed in shock, "Who's undergoing tribulation?"
On the fourth day, the calamity was even more dreadful.
The White Emperor showed astonishment. Is the Southern Region about to undergo a great change?
For several days in a row, Great Yaos underwent tribulations, which was truly incredible. But after the fifth day, she began to notice that something was amiss.
On the sixth day…
The White Emperor finally traced the source of the calamities: it was that little girl causing trouble.
Her face was full of shock. What on earth was the origin of this little girl? Why could she manipulate calamities at will?
The White Emperor came over, looking fierce and menacing, and threatened her. However, the girl wasn't frightened at all. Faced with an Emperor Realm powerhouse, she retaliated with a calamity. That day, the area covered wasn't very large, but the precision was high—all the lightning tribulation was directed at Monster Emperor City.
The White Emperor was enraged. She drew out an Emperor Weapon to kill the girl, but… it was useless. The little girl sent her flying with a slap, then followed with another calamity.
My heavens!
A terrifying aura enveloped all of Monster Emperor City. It was heavy and oppressive, as if the sky were collapsing, doomsday were arriving, or some dreadful dark turmoil was unfolding. Even the Great Yaos within the Southern Region seriously suspected that the Big Shots were planning another round of dark turmoil.
And so, one terrifying calamity after another struck Monster Emperor City. The White Emperor was furious. But even as an Emperor Realm powerhouse, despite using numerous Divine Skills, reawakening her Bloodline Power, and even drawing her Emperor Weapon, she was helpless against the little girl.
Spirit Jade: "…"
"Chen Pingping, this Empress will kill you!" roared the White Emperor, her hair disheveled, her voice erupting with fury.
Fortunately, the little girl had some restraint. She didn't kill anyone, merely aiming the lightning tribulations at Monster Emperor City and the Monster Emperor's Mansion.
The White Emperor was completely dumbfounded.
After the thirty-second calamity, the White Emperor compromised. Enduring the insult to her kind, she ventured to a distant place and caught a rabbit to bring back.
But the little girl didn't want it at all. "This rabbit meat isn't tasty."
The White Emperor, trembling with rage, demanded, "What did you say?"
This damned little girl! Does she actually want to eat the flesh of an Emperor Realm powerhouse? What was she thinking? She's spouting utter nonsense!
Fuck!
This was unbearable.
Gritting her teeth, the White Emperor was about to use a Forbidden Technique when the little girl chimed in, "I know that one too."
BOO HOO!
The White Emperor wept in devastation. "Go! Please, just go! Where do you want to go? Do you want to return to your father? Anything is fine, this Empress will take you there! Right... do you want a Quasi-Emperor Weapon to play with? This Empress can give you one! I also have a few stalks of The King of Medicine here. Want to try them?"
The little girl, her large eyes sparkling brightly, giggled. "Why don't you use your Forbidden Technique? I want to watch."
The White Emperor: "..."
She was on the brink of collapse. She looked like an irate fishwife screaming curses in the street—her clothes disheveled, face grimy, and eyes dull and lifeless. Turning around, she gnashed her teeth, silently plotting how to kill the little girl.
Yes! She must be killed. The White Emperor had made her decision.
「Night fell!」
Yue Wuxia sneaked over and gave the little girl a thumbs-up. "You're amazing!"
The little girl responded with a radiant smile, "Hello, Big Sister!"
"How did you manage to do it?" Yue Wuxia was also curious. Since she was born, she had never seen the White Emperor so utterly lose control, driven to the very edge of madness. She had been observing the battle all this time and was greatly shaken by what she had seen.
If I learned this Divine Skill, she thought, wouldn't I be able to suppress the White Emperor every day? It was simply wonderful.
Blinking her eyes, the little girl said, "It's an innate ability, but... each time it's used, there's a price to pay." She seemed a bit melancholic as she spoke. But she didn't quite understand what melancholy meant, so the feeling quickly faded.
"What price?" Yue Wuxia asked.
"You'll die! The price is your life," she said it quite cheerfully.
"…"
"I miss my father," the little girl said longingly.
HEH HEH!
Yue Wuxia's interest was instantly piqued. "Are you really Pingping's daughter?"
She looked confused. "I don't really understand, but he is my father. I want to go find my father."
Yue Wuxia chuckled. "Shall Big Sister take you? How about that?"
The little girl: "Yes, please!"
"But... if the White Emperor tries to stop us, you have to help Big Sister, okay? Big Sister can't beat the White Emperor," Yue Wuxia coaxed.
Her scriptures were fully formed. Now, she would slowly begin her cultivation. However, she loathed such tedious cultivation methods. Therefore, she yearned to go on adventures or stay with Chen Pingping.
Because she had grand ambitions. Clever as she was, she firmly believed that only Chen Pingping could help her achieve them. With her sharp mind and his abilities, they would be an unbeatable team, sweeping across the Nine Heavens and storming the depths of the Ancient City! Now was the time to make a name for herself! First step: escape Monster Emperor City!
The little girl's eyes lit up. "Really? You're going to take me to find my father?"
Yue Wuxia nodded. "Let's leave together. I'll take you to your father, and you help me block the White Emperor. Of course, if she doesn't try to stop us, then you don't need to do anything."
"Okay!" the little girl chirped happily.
Under the cover of night.
The White Emperor was still racking her brains, trying to figure out how to kill the little girl.
Meanwhile, the two of them had already secretly fled the Monster Emperor's Mansion and were dashing towards the outskirts of Monster Emperor City.
Fortunately, the recent calamities triggered by the little girl had destroyed most of the Arrays in Monster Emperor City. Thus, the White Emperor couldn't sense their departure.
By the time she realized what had happened, it was already late into the night.
She stood silently in the courtyard, gazing at the pale moonlight. In that instant, she seemed to age tremendously. Looking at Spirit Jade nearby, her eyes weary and her voice laced with bitterness, she said, "You were right."
