The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!-Chapter 519: One Strike, Shatter the Heavens
The insectoid queen’s compound eyes, numerous and dense, opened atop her head.
After awakening, she looked towards Li Muyang, who was at an arm’s reach, without showing any surprise.
The white fog drifted through the grand hall, and the floating insectoid head turned towards Li Muyang, seemingly revealing a smile.
"...Ascendant, we finally meet."
The instant the monster met him, it called out Li Muyang’s secret.
But Li Muyang was no longer surprised by this.
If even the Mother Buddha Temple of the North Land could tell he was an Ascendant, then this monster...
Heh...
Li Muyang shook his head indifferently, smiling as he asked, "So you’re the queen of the monsters?"
This creature’s health bar was already depleted, its body utterly destroyed by Li Muyang.
Even if its body were intact, Li Muyang would not fear it anymore.
While attacking the monster, Li Muyang discovered that the creature’s body was completely hollow.
The omnipresent fog in the air, along with the giant cocoon enveloping its body, were all sapping the monster’s power.
This fog, after absorbing the monster’s power, then transferred that power along the veins in the earth to the palace above.
Clearly, Emperor Lu had used a great array to transform a million souls in the Capital City into monsters, and this monster had exerted a great deal of effort and was already drained.
Even if it emerged unscathed, it couldn’t possibly harm Li Muyang.
And after the monster’s head awoke, it indeed did not attack Li Muyang.
It just looked at Li Muyang with interest and said, "Yes, I am the queen, the root of all this chaos."
"It was I who passed the spell of transformation to the Emperor, and I who aided him in secret to accumulate power and achieve his goals."
"Although you are an Ascendant, it’s a pity you are too late."
"Now that the grand array in the Capital City is complete and a million souls have turned into monsters, you alone cannot stop the Emperor."
The queen spoke gently, straightforwardly confessing her crimes, eliminating the need for an interrogation.
Such a frankly confessing boss was indeed surprising to Li Muyang.
But he still kept his distance, eyeing the queen with a cold gaze, "Why would you help the Emperor? Have the beings of this land offended you? Why do you seek their utter destruction?"
At this moment, Li Muyang had confirmed it.
The queen before him was unquestionably connected to the creature from the Misty Sea.
Perhaps a clone of that creature, or maybe its progeny.
But regardless, the two were of the same origin!
Confronted with Li Muyang’s question, the queen remained as forthcoming as ever.
She chuckled lightly and shook her head, replying, "Why would I help the Emperor? That’s simple; he sought my aid, and at that time I happened to be in a good mood, so I gave him an insect egg and hatched this body, assisting him in his endeavors."
"As for why I seek the utter destruction of the beings of this land... frankly, I haven’t."
The queen shook her loathsome insect-like head and let out an elegant chuckle, "The life or death of the beings of Tianyuan Continent is of no concern to me."
"I harbor neither hatred nor affection for them."
"I merely helped this adorable Emperor out of amusement, to meet his expectations."
"As for the rest... I don’t care."
Shaking her head, the queen continued, "Do you have more questions? There’s not much time left for this body of mine."
"If you have further questions, you can seek me out in the Misty Sea."
"As soon as you, the Ascendant, step into the Misty Sea, I will sense it and come to meet you at once."
After speaking, the queen suddenly laughed lightly and stood up, saying, "When you come to find me, bring any Ancient Immortal Artifact and the corpse of the Master of Immortal Device."
"I will give you an extremely generous reward."
"As an Ascendant, you must also detest the existence of those Masters of Immortal Device, right?"
"On this point, our stances are aligned..."
The queen’s laughter ended her speech, not waiting for Li Muyang to continue the inquiry.
```
Its head burst open with a boom, turning into spiritual energy that scattered across the heavens, absorbed by the omnipresent white fog in the underground cavern.
Witnessing everything, Li Muyang’s eyes narrowed, and a sigh escaped his heart.
Indeed...
This cunning and fierce Monster Queen was the very monster clone from the Misty Sea!
It had actually invited Li Muyang to hunt for the Master of Immortal Device together... What the fuck.
I’m both an Ascendant and the Master of Immortal Device, damn it!
Why should I hate those Masters of Immortal Device just because I’m an Ascendant?
A string of questions filled Li Muyang’s mind.
But with the monster’s head gone, there was no way for Li Muyang to ask now.
And the system task list had been updated.
[The Monster Queen is dead. Task: Heaven Has Perished ⑤——Completed]
[New Task: Heaven Has Perished ⑥ is now unlocked]
[Task Detail: Please escape from the palace as quickly as possible and rendezvous with the Glass Immortal Maiden from the Mysterious Sword Sect]
The system alert that popped up in his field of vision left Li Muyang stunned for a moment.
Escape from the palace... and quickly?
Isn’t the palace supposed to be defenseless now?
The strongest nine-tailed fox had been killed by him, so why still need to escape quickly... Could there be another BOSS?
With a slight frown on his brow, Li Muyang immediately ran towards the underground passageway’s staircase with the little girl, Nie Yubing.
They raced towards the ground, and before long, they had emerged from the passageway, entering the monster fog-enthralled palace grounds.
At that moment, the huge corpse of the nine-tailed fox lay powerlessly to one side, immense as a mountain.
Among the ruins and broken walls of the palace, tiny flames burned, filling the air with a piercing burnt stench.
The entire palace was a sight of desolation, as if it had been ravaged by chaos.
Right after Li Muyang and the little girl emerged from the passageway, they ran just over a dozen yards toward the outside of the palace.
The sky above them suddenly tore open, and the thick monster fog that had obscured the skies dissipated with a great rumble, revealing the blue sky beyond the monstrous clouds.
And with it, the figure of a monster, whose murderous aura reached the heavens, extreme in its ferociousness.
"...You actually killed My beloved consort!"
The ferocious and raging figure of Emperor Lu tore through the sky as he descended.
In the expanse between heaven and earth captured by his gaze, the swirling monster fog was directly cleaved in two by him.
A massive torrent of murderous aura, like the collapse of heaven and earth, slammed down toward Li Muyang.
In a flash, he and Nie Yubing were crushed...

"Damn it! The Monster Queen, that old cunning bitch, deliberately delayed time waiting for the Emperor to come back and kill!"
Li Muyang, whose eyes snapped open in the quiet room, was immediately shocked.
Had that monster been stalling with its talk to buy time all along?
The Emperor, who was supposed to be at the Heiyuan Pass frontline slaughtering the Chaos Army, had actually returned alone at the critical moment... Did he sense the death of his consort?
Fuck me!
This Emperor is even more ferocious than I imagined!
To cleave through a thousand li of fog with a single strike.
Is that even within human capability?
Even a cultivator in the Eternal Heaven Realm couldn’t possibly possess such tremendous might, right?
Yet the Eternal Heaven Realm is already the pinnacle of combat power in this world.
Could Emperor Lu’s combat power have surpassed the limits of this world?
Recalling his recent demise, Li Muyang’s brow furrowed deeply, instinctively feeling that something was amiss.
