Chapter 216: Peerless Woman, Forbidden Existence

After Lu Zhangsheng felt those gazes.

He immediately showed a helpless expression.

Originally, this matter.

He had wanted to wait until he could speak with his grandfather alone, after all, the matter was of great importance.

However, saying it now wouldn't be a problem, but Lu Zhangsheng chose not to explain.

Beside him, Meng Que Xie and the two Tongtian Sword Juniors immediately knew what to do; they both took a deep breath, looked toward Lu Yuhua and the others, and said: "Finally, the Empress descended upon the Evil Land."

"She struck, easily slaughtering those four dark powerhouses, and even stirred the forbidden beings within the Evil Land."

"Those forbidden beings each showed anger, releasing their aura, intending to intimidate the Empress."

"Yet in the end, none of them attacked; instead, they were completely awed by the Empress."

As he finished speaking, in the eyes of those youths.

They couldn't help but show a look of admiration again.

There was nothing they could do.

When the Empress acted, even just for them, it left a deep impression.

Those were four mighty beings that left everyone present unable to muster any thought of resistance, feeling they could not possibly contend with them—yet in the Empress's hands, they amounted to nothing.

With such a powerful figure and such peerless means, who among today's youth would not be shaken? And after the two finished explaining, Lu Yuhua and the others couldn't help but exchange a glance.

Through all this, they finally came to know.

Before this.

Why did the Empress suddenly descend upon the Evil Land?

Why did the forbidden beings within the Evil Land choose to reveal their aura?

Everything's cause lay with Lu Zhangsheng; if not for his appearance drawing the attention of dark beings.

Afterwards, it also made the Empress feel that, had it not been for this, none of the later events would have happened—but this child, who is only just over a year old, actually nearly provoked a world-shaking war.

The master of the Tongtian Sword Pavilion and the head of the Cui family couldn't help but gulp, feeling it unbelievable.

You must know, even they themselves had never experienced such a moment on their cultivation path.

Even now, perhaps they wouldn't carry such weight—but Lu Zhangsheng did.

But soon.

The two then had another doubt arise in their hearts.

That is, how did the Empress sense the dark creatures' attack on Lu Zhangsheng?

One must know, on one side is the Evil Land, on the other is the Seal Land left by the sages of the Human Race.

Even an existence like the Empress, if not paying special attention, would surely not know exactly what happened.

Previously, when Lu Zhangsheng was just born.

It was because of the other party.

It triggered numerous heavenly and earthly phenomena, attracting everyone's attention in the world.

But this time, it obviously was not like before.

Therefore, there must necessarily be another reason.

So immediately, their gazes fell upon Lu Yuhua again, but he merely gave a slight cough and did not choose to explain.

Just joking.

Speaking of the Myriad Tribulations Love Thread matter.

First, not saying whether the Empress would be displeased after knowing it.

Just this alone would likely put their own grandson in danger again.

After all, the other party has already been regarded by the Empress as a future husband; just think how many people in the present world would be shocked. If it were something else, it would be fine, but if those who already bear a grudge against the Lu family and have long eyed the grandson learned of it?

Would they not then try every means to act against their own grandson?

Although the chance of those people succeeding is very low.

But Lu Yuhua does not want to take that risk.

Even if one encounters various hardships in cultivation, these two are fundamentally not the same thing.

Beside them, the master of the Tongtian Sword Pavilion and the head of the Cui family, upon seeing Lu Yuhua's expression, also roughly understood that some things cannot be spoken of now.

Therefore, they no longer continued to ask.

"Fortunately, this time the Empress took action; otherwise, we wouldn't know how to settle the matter."

"Moreover, the Empress remains as she was before—overbearing and peerless; one would think the forbidden beings of the Evil Land know this, so they fundamentally chose not to escalate the matter."

The two spoke up, no longer discussing the cause, but pondering why, in the end, the forbidden beings of the Evil Land.

"At the critical moment, why did they choose not to attack, or rather, do they feel it is because of the Empress?"

"If not for her strong-willed character, unafraid of any threat."

"One would think those forbidden beings would not readily relent."

"Thinking this far."

The two also couldn't help but sigh.

"Thinking back, when I myself had already achieved something, the Empress had only just set foot on the path of cultivation."

"But now, even they must look up to her existence."

"Everyone knows the Empress's rise has been too swift."

"And everyone also considers her peerless and unmatched."

"She is the most talented woman in the present world, and indeed in the entire history of cultivation."

"In the past, many admired her, but as the Empress continually grew stronger, eventually occupying the Ninth Heaven, even some other thoughts faded away."

After all, beings of that level are too far away.

Alright, things are more or less done now; let's all head back into the city for now.

At this moment, Yao Dian spoke, and his words also announced that this North Sea Hunt had come to a complete end.

Upon hearing that, everyone around also had nothing more to say, each turning into Rainbow Light and vanishing on the spot.

Some were happy, naturally some were sad, after all, they were their own most outstanding juniors.

They all fell there as well.

For them.

This is undoubtedly bad news, but there's nothing to be done; the matter has already ended.

Besides, it's impossible to blame everything on Lu Zhangsheng, right?

The other side fundamentally has no such obligation, so there's really nothing to say; they can only return quietly.

Lu Zhangsheng, Lu Yuhua, and the others also nodded, saying nothing more.

Because there are indeed many more matters to handle next.

At this moment.

After everyone left, the North Sea once again returned to its original tranquil state.

But soon, a Divine Light fell from the Nine Heavens above, and the Empress's figure slowly emerged from within it.

Her figure was wrapped in countless immortal lights, making her appear peerless, yet at this moment her aura revealed not a trace.

Obviously, she did not want others to know.

And the Empress.

She gazed in the direction Lu Zhangsheng had left, a faint smile appearing in her eyes.

Although knowing the hunt had ended, the other party would also be safe and sound.

But she still couldn't help feeling somewhat worried.

So after leaving the Evil Land, she did not immediately return to the Immortal Palace, but remained hidden in the Nine Heavens.

With her formidable cultivation realm, even Lu Yuhua and the others could not detect her.

Now that everyone has left, she has only just descended.

"As long as they're safe."

The Empress spoke softly, then turned her gaze once more toward the Dark E Tu, gradually growing stern, for she clearly knew that after this, more beings would set their sights on Lu Zhangsheng.
