My Five Bigshot Seniors: I am The Most Coddled Junior!-Chapter 95 - 47: Demon Clan Invasion (Part 1)

Yue Zhao moved his fingers and sighed as he spoke.

They are not people of the Xuantian Continent and have no deep feelings for it, so they could only sigh. But Zhuo Tingqiu and Yun Ran are different.

Both of them were born and raised on the Xuantian Continent, and their family and friends are there. Upon hearing Yue Zhao’s words, they were both very worried.

"Brother Yue, you always say that the Heavenly Dao is about to dissipate. I want to know, if the Heavenly Dao really dissipates, what will happen?" Zhuo Tingqiu asked seriously while looking at Yue Zhao.

"The Heavenly Dao is the ruler of this realm and the key to maintaining it. If the Heavenly Dao dissipates, the barrier between Xuantian Continent and the outside world will vanish. At that time, not only the Demon Clan but also other races and people from higher worlds will treat this place as a battlefield to seize resources. The worst outcome would be akin to doomsday!" Over the years, Yue Zhao had come to recognize Zhuo Tingqiu, so he didn’t hide anything.

Upon hearing this, Zhuo Tingqiu and Yun Ran’s faces suddenly changed.

"Does that mean," Zhuo Tingqiu felt his throat dry, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "does that mean we will be at their mercy?"

"I have said before, the Xuantian Continent is a low-level plane. In the vast world, there are many such planes. Above are higher-level planes like the Sub-immortal Realm. Not all planes exist peacefully with each other. Some planes will seize resources from other planes due to scarcity and other reasons. However, each plane has its own Heavenly Dao to protect it, making it hard to be overrun. But if the Heavenly Dao dissipates, it will become a prize in the eyes of other planes, and the power disparity with higher planes is too great for you to retaliate!" Yue Zhao’s voice, usually warm and soft, now seemed rather harsh.

What Yue Zhao mentioned was the first time Zhuo Tingqiu and Yun Ran had heard of it. In the past, they might have been very happy, but now it was different. Now the plane at risk of being annexed was theirs, leading to the devastation of life. They wouldn’t have a chance for a good life either!

"Is there no way?" Yun Ran asked, not willing to give up.

"There is a way," Yue Zhao’s eyes flashed with a glimmer.

"What is it?" Zhuo Tingqiu quickly inquired.

"That is to create a new Heavenly Dao. With the Heavenly Dao, barriers with other worlds will form, preventing other planes from entering the Xuantian Continent because the Heavenly Dao will detect them and can expel them directly," Yue Zhao’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Then how can a new Heavenly Dao be created?" Yun Ran and Zhuo Tingqiu exchanged a glance and continued to ask.

"Before the old Heavenly Dao dissipates, it will choose a new one," Yue Zhao leisurely said as he poured himself a cup of tea.

Yun Ran and Zhuo Tingqiu both fell into deep thought.

Nobody noticed as Gu Qingqing touched the center of her brows, lost in thought.

...

The Emperor did not change his mind and ordered the execution of Noble Princess Consort Yi. The days for Li Sisi and Li Xiuting in the Imperial Palace immediately became difficult.

Although the Emperor did not say he would dispose of them, everyone knew their mother consort poisoned the Emperor, so regaining the Emperor’s favor was impossible. Moreover, Li Xiuting had not yet entered the court, thus lacking significant power, and the Yi Family, due to Noble Princess Consort Yi’s involvement, was also reprimanded and in no condition to help them.

In Li Sisi’s residence, seeing the maid bringing dishes she didn’t like and that were cold, Li Sisi overturned the table.

"This is intolerable!" She supported herself on the table, eyes bloodshot, breathing heavily, her expression furious.

"Princess, please take care of your health." The maid watched worriedly from the side.

Li Sisi was entirely consumed by her emotions and couldn’t hear the maid’s words.

Recent events had turned her into a firecracker, exploding at the slightest trigger. Today’s incident was the spark that ignited her deep-seated anger.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, not noticing the black threads continually flooding into her pupils, which gradually grew larger, eventually taking over her eyes, appearing particularly terrifying.

"Ugh!"

Her body suddenly felt as if a fire had ignited within, and she felt like she was being crushed, the pain was unbearable. In just a moment, her clothes were soaked with sweat. Soon, black horns sprouted from her forehead, black wings emerged from her back, and she grew noticeably taller.

"Ah!"

The maid watched helplessly as Li Sisi transformed, covering her mouth in horror.

Li Sisi turned her head, revealing her current appearance.

A black lightning mark appeared on her brow, and a black wing pattern showed at the end of her eyes, her whole eyes turned blood-red, and fangs extended from her mouth. At this moment, she looked completely inhuman.

Seeing the maid about to run out, she spread her fingers slightly and pulled the maid toward her with just a little force. Holding the maid’s body close, under the maid’s terrified gaze, she lowered her head and bit into the maid’s neck. It wasn’t long before blood surged into her body, and shortly, the maid was reduced to a dried corpse. She tossed the maid’s body aside, raised her head, and revealed a bloodthirsty smile. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Li Xiuyan, I will make you pay the price!" She gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, then her figure flashed and disappeared from the sleeping palace.

...

When the Emperor woke up, he was very surprised to find that the poison in his body had been cleared. He didn’t expect that he could make such a mistake.

Li Xiuyan once again proposed that the Emperor retract his order, as he did not want to ascend the throne, but the Emperor refused.

"After this experience, I have understood some truths. I lost your mother because of this throne, and that price is already enough. I am assured with you being the Emperor," the Emperor looked at Li Xiuyan with a very comforting gaze.

Li Xiuyan and the Emperor locked eyes for a long time, and finally, he could only give up the struggle.

With the Emperor’s intervention, Li Xiuyan’s enthronement ceremony was scheduled for two days later. The entire court and harem became busy, and for a moment, no one noticed the situation of Li Sisi and Li Xiuting.

In a corner of the harem, there was an abandoned palace. It was considered a cold palace by the people in the palace, where concubines of the previous Emperor who committed mistakes were confined. The environment here was very poor.

Since few people came here, Li Sisi chose it as the place to paint the array.

In the dilapidated hall, an array was slowly taking shape. Li Sisi stood in front of the array, carving the array with her own Spiritual Power.

In the past two days, she had absorbed a lot of blood from palace maids, and her cultivation has improved significantly. She was now close to the peak of the sixth tier, and the moment she transformed into a member of the Demon Clan, this summoning array appeared in her mind. Once the array was successful, it would summon the Demon Clan to Xuantian Continent, and then she could kill Li Xiuyan and the Emperor!

She had never studied arrays before, so she needed to be extremely careful when painting it. If there was a mistake, the array would be ruined, causing her to spend two days completing more than half of the array.

Looking at the gradually forming array, a ferocious smile appeared on her face.

...

On the day of Li Xiuyan’s enthronement ceremony, all forces present in Shangjing City were invited to the ceremony, and Gu Qingqing and the others were no exception.

Witnessing the change of royal power with their own eyes was an experience for Gu Qingqing and the others.

When the Supreme Emperor handed the Jade Seal to Li Xiuyan, a pillar of black light suddenly appeared in a corner of the Imperial Palace, followed by black clouds covering the entire palace. Everyone’s gaze was drawn to it.

"Someone has actually opened the passage to the Demon Clan, and the Demon Clan has invaded Xuantian Continent!" Si Lin looked at the black clouds in the sky, sensing the surge of Demonic Qi nearby, his brows furrowed with a somewhat serious expression.

"What? Is that person crazy?" Zhuo Tingqiu exclaimed in disbelief beside him, his gaze falling on the pillar of light not far away.

The voices of the two were not suppressed, so the other forces around also heard them. Importantly, the Demonic Qi was so obvious that it was hard not to notice.

The people standing around Gu Qingqing started discussing the matter of the Demon Clan loudly, and everyone’s mood was somewhat heavy.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the transformed demon Li Sisi appeared in mid-air with a team of demons.

"Li Xiuyan, come meet your death!" Li Sisi was suspended in mid-air, looking at Li Xiuyan with blood-red eyes and a determined smile on her face.

"Li Sisi, it’s you! Do you know what you’re doing? You actually colluded with the Demon Clan?" Li Xiuyan was also very surprised to see Li Sisi. He completely did not expect that Li Sisi not only colluded with the Demon Clan but also turned into the likeness of a demon herself.

"Of course, I know what I’m doing. Very soon, I will become the Emperor of this country, haha!" As if thinking of something triumphant, Li Sisi laughed wildly.

"You’re dreaming!" Li Xiuyan looked at Li Sisi with a stern face, speaking coldly.

"You’ll soon know whether I am dreaming!" Li Sisi’s face turned cold as she waved her hand to the team behind her, "Attack!"

The demons behind her were all tall and oddly shaped, exuding Demonic Qi all over, their eyes filled with greed as they looked at humans. Upon hearing Li Sisi’s command, they brandished their weapons and rushed towards the closest humans.

"Protect the Emperor!" The Supreme Emperor coldly commanded, and with a wave of his hand, the guards standing not far away all stepped forward, protecting the Supreme Emperor and Li Xiuyan.

On Gu Qingqing’s side, Gu Qingqing was protected by others behind them, while Si Lin and the others stood at the front, and the approaching demons couldn’t get near them.

Five brothers, including Si Lin, stood in a line, each with their weapons suspended in front of them, moving with their actions.

As the Heavenly Dao weakened, Si Lin and the others could use more of their cultivation, no longer suppressed at the peak of the sixth tier, but elevated to the seventh tier, making the incoming demons no match for them.

When Li Sisi saw the situation on Gu Qingqing’s side from above, her facial expression changed, and she flapped her wings, rushing directly towards Si Lin.
