Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

Inside the rear palace of the Shen Wei Imperial Palace, Hua gazed at the ceiling with a somewhat unfocused look, her fingertips unconsciously clutching the corner of the blanket.

She hadn't gotten out of bed for half a day already; it wasn't that she didn't want to move, she truly couldn't walk.

"Hua."

Jing Liu's cold voice came from outside the door; Hua's whole body stiffened, and she almost instinctively burrowed into the blanket.

Ling Sha had just left on the front foot, and Xing Xiao and the others had also taken turns coming to see her; right now, she really had no face to see anyone.

Seeing no movement inside, Jing Liu didn't procrastinate either, pushing the door open and walking straight in.

When she saw Hua sitting by the bed feigning composure, holding a cup of tea she hadn't touched at all, a trace of amusement flashed in her eyes, but she didn't point it out.

"What's wrong, Jing Liu?"

Hua raised her eyes to look at Jing Liu, her tone as flat as possible, forcing herself to maintain the Marshal's dignified bearing, yet her eartips quietly flushed red.

Jing Liu walked to the bedside and sat down, her gaze sweeping openly over Hua's surroundings.

Hua's cheongsam was crooked and twisted, obviously put on in a hurry, and she hadn't even had time to put on underwear; two points were clearly visible.

Her legs were still trembling slightly involuntarily, and even her sitting posture carried a few degrees of stiffness.

"You've worked hard."

Hua's eartips instantly turned completely red; she pursed her lips tightly, unable to utter a word of rebuttal for half a day.

She bent slightly at the waist wanting to reach for the teacup, but a wave of swelling pain came from her abdomen, her movement freezing instantly, looking rather awkward.

That discomfort caused the composure on her face to fade a few more degrees.

"Is it a matter of Abundance?" Hua took a sip of cold tea, barely suppressing the shame in her heart, and slowly opened her mouth to ask.

"Yes."

Jing Liu nodded, her tone sinking a bit, "Xuan Ge is already Abundance's Chosen; he can sever Abundance's mercy, preventing the bestowal from being misinterpreted by villains, yet there are still those who don't buy it."

The current Xian Zhou has long since become incomparable to the past, firmly sitting as the number one power in the Huan Yu.

On the surface there is Xuan Ge holding the fort, and behind him stand the three Aeons Abundance, Harmony, and the Hunt backing him up, giving him full confidence.

"To face Abundance directly, one must first face the Xuan Emperor; this point cannot be changed."

Hua put down the teacup; the cup bottom collided with the porcelain saucer, producing a crisp sound.

"Gold Blood of Destruction, Propagation Fragment, plus the Hunt's General — they can only touch the threshold of facing Xuan Ge directly."

These words seem to point out the conditions for facing Abundance directly, but in reality they are warning Jing Liu not to forget her own identity, and not to cross the line because of the Racha.

As for the Racha briefly letting Jing Liu recover from the Mara form, this is a debt Xuan Ge should go repay; it is no longer Jing Liu's.

Because Jing Liu's identity is different now; she is Xuan Ge's Frost Consort.

"I understand." Jing Liu's expression was calm; ever since giving birth to Xuan Jing, the hatred in her heart had long since faded considerably.

Dan Shu and Yu Fei remained on the Luo Fu to teach Bai Lu; even Ling Sha often personally gave pointers; she has long had no more worries about the rear.

As for Jing Yuan......

Jing Liu thought of Jing Yuan these days, how every day he was either slacking off or going to the Lin Yuan Jing to fish....

Forget it, better let Xuan Jing and Xuan Yao stay by his side more.

"Alright, with Abundance controllable, it's nothing more than those greedy people failing to get what they wish for."

Hua leaned her back against the chair, let out a long breath, and a rare look of relaxation appeared on her face.

Although the Generals still come to her with matters now, the truly troublesome problems all get reported up to Xuan Ge; she can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as Xuan Ge passes his days peacefully, and doesn't pull any ruthless stunts like becoming an Extinction Monarch, her position as Marshal can stay this easy.

The corner of Hua's mouth unconsciously hooked up a faint, shallow smile, her eyes full of contentment.

"Actually I still want to say...."

Jing Liu hesitated for an instant, her tone somewhat hesitant, but ultimately still spoke.

"Xuan Ge just now.... became an Extinction Monarch...."

Hua froze.

She stared blankly at Jing Liu, her eyes hollow, as if she couldn't comprehend the combination meaning of these few words.

"The current Xuan Ge is a Super Extinction Monarch; Hei Ta calls him Little Nanuk...."

Jing Liu paused, ultimately not saying Hei Ta's line "Extinction Monarch promax", afraid of stimulating Hua, though she was already stimulated....

Hua's vision went black; she only felt waves of dizziness before her eyes.

That Marshal position of hers which had only been relaxed for a moment instantly became something she could see the end of at a glance.

"Scum!" Hua let out a low shout, violently trying to stand up, wanting to go find Xuan Ge to settle accounts.

These three days of ambiguous cohabitation, Xuan Ge always said serious things right when she thought he was about to go, causing her to misjudge repeatedly.

She clearly remembered, Xuan Ge had said he would eventually go settle accounts with Nanuk; it was because of this sentence that she worked so hard to cooperate with him.

But turning his head, he himself became an Extinction Monarch; it's simply absurd!

Hua had just stood up when her foot stumbled, her body instantly unsteady.

Jing Liu was quick-eyed and quick-handed, hurriedly reaching out to support her arm.

"I touched Xing; she said in the Simulated Universe, Nanuk snatched Xuan Ge away."

Jing Liu explained softly, "The current Xuan Ge, his black hair has shed into white hair, and on his chest there is a gold scar identical to Nanuk's."

"Did the Imperial Bow not intervene?"

Hua stabilized her stance, her sharp eyes fixed on Jing Liu, only now perceiving something was wrong.

The Essence of Destruction — Destruction could not possibly stand by and do nothing.

"Looks like there isn't."

Jing Liu shook her head, adding, "But Xuan Ge and Hei Ta are no longer on the Shen Wu."

"Scum!" Hua sat down huffily, her lip curling, full of shame and indignation.

She recalled in fragments what Xuan Ge had said before, something about "Destruction is the condition for negating the gods" — turns out it was all foreshadowing from the start.

"He became like that?"

Jing Liu looked at Hua's angry and ashamed appearance, instantly realizing — surely at that kind of moment, he was still discussing serious matters with Hua.

"You...." Hua's cheeks reddened, her eyes dodging, yet she couldn't utter a rebuttal.

Jing Liu lightly nodded, a trace of Resonance flashing in her eyes — she herself was also frequently "tossed about" by Xuan Ge in this way.

Every time Xuan Ge asked a serious question, she would forcibly press down her feelings and prepare to answer, and he would suddenly make a move.

In the end, she could only answer his questions absentmindedly while panting, in a sorry state.

"Da Lihua, you deserve to die."

The two locked eyes, cursing in unison, their voices full of Helplessness and resentment.

No need to think — Xuan Ge becoming like this was definitely the Da Lihua Cult's doing.

On the other side, Da Lihua was walking shoulder to shoulder with Huang Quan, the two heading to Pinocchio together.

Suddenly, Da Lihua couldn't help but let out a loud sneeze, the tip of her nose turning faintly red.

"Someone is talking about you." Huang Quan turned her head to look at Da Lihua.

"Must be His Majesty missing me." Da Lihua smiled with a bashful expression, the tail behind her unconsciously circling, as if wanting to coil around something.

She subconsciously clenched tight, her eyes full of Longing for Xuan Ge.

"You look somewhat strange, are you really alright?"

Huang Quan frowned slightly; she could vaguely sense, with High Probability it was two women cursing Da Lihua.

Looking at Da Lihua suddenly becoming this nymphomaniac-like appearance, her heart was full of Confusion.

"Of Course nothing's wrong." Da Lihua waved her hand, her gaze shifting, hurriedly changing the subject.

"You and His Majesty really met? Why have I never heard His Majesty mention you."

She sought Xuan Ge daily for thrills, and also 'on and off' asked about his past many times.

But no matter how she asked, she never heard of Xuan Ge having any connection with a Nihility Path walker.

"Seems we've met, perhaps countless times." Huang Quan nodded, halting her steps, as if striving to recall something.

"But him becoming the Xianzhou Emperor is the most terrifying outcome."

"But didn't you say, a Xuan Ge who hasn't stepped onto the Nihility Path would be fine?" Da Lihua was somewhat puzzled, feeling Huang Quan seemed like her left and right brain were gaming each other.

The previous second she was speaking perfectly fine, the next second she again had the look of wanting to chop Xuan Ge down.

"Sorry, he seems to have forced me to do something very excessive, I instinctively hate him."

Huang Quan spoke the apology flatly, her face still expressionless, as if that hatred was also merely instinct, not genuine.

Da Lihua didn't take it to heart; she knew Huang Quan was different from her, a woman like her could only be truly Spoiled by Xuan Ge.

After all, she had betrayal, deception, and even the habit of madness, yet Xuan Ge not only accepted her but doted on her abnormally.

Moreover, the Nihility Path is inherently Weird; just look at Huang Quan's amnesiac state and you know how much she tosses people about.

Even stranger, even with her leading the way, the two still often got lost.

Even with the Hang Jian on auto-route, it could still inexplicably deviate direction, delaying quite a lot of time.

Da Lihua couldn't help but sigh, the Longing in her eyes growing even deeper.

This Nihility Path really isn't fun at all; still, His Majesty's Hunt makes her more high-spirited.
