Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou

"Sister, all my clones are in place and ready to be recalled at any moment. Initially, I estimate that I should be able to reach the Half-step Martial God Realm."

At that moment, Long Yufei's voice echoed in Long Yurou's mind.

Long Yurou subtly nodded her head, then with a flip of her snow-white hand, the Imperial Jade Seal engraved with nine Divine Dragons magically appeared in her hand.

The Divine Gift Seal!

Long Yusheng's eyes glittered with greed. This was the treasure of all Jiuzhou, capable of mobilizing the Dragon Vein of Jiuzhou, manipulating the fate of the nation, and activating the Divine Gifted Stele to enhance the effects of divine gifts.

If he could obtain it, he would receive more divine gifts, and there was a good chance he could break through to the Martial God Realm.

By then, conquering Jiuzhou wouldn't be so troublesome.

Long Yuyan, Long Yuxiang, and Long Yutian, standing nearby, also harbored greedy thoughts.

All of them were Peak Martial Emperors. Whoever got the Divine Gift Seal would receive more divine gifts, and each had a chance to break through to the Martial God Realm.

Long Yurou glanced at them. Although they hid it quickly, they couldn't escape her perception.

After all, having been the Empress for three years, she had a clear understanding of others' thoughts.

Long Yurou's gaze flickered, and she suddenly spoke, "Using the Divine Gift Seal to activate the Divine Gifted Stele shouldn't require my presence, right? You could do it too, couldn't you?"

Long Yutian, who had lost an arm, couldn't hold back and blurted out, "If you are unwilling, I could do it for you."

The one connecting with the Divine Gifted Stele using the Divine Gift Seal, as long as they survive, would naturally be sensed by the ancestors in the Divine Realm and be granted more divine gifts.

If the Empress could personally hand over the Divine Gift Seal, it would naturally be more reassuring.

"Oh? So you really can use it, then?"

Long Yurou suddenly realized.

Seeing this, Long Yutian instantly understood that the Empress was tricking him and nearly burst an artery out of rage.

Long Yusheng gave him a stern look and turned to bow respectfully to Long Yurou, "Your Majesty, the Divine Gift Seal is Yours to command, and being the Imperial Jade Seal of the Empire, it naturally should be handled personally by You."

Long Yurou nodded noncommittally, looking down at the Imperial Jade Seal in her hands, somewhat puzzled.

These guys, they actually want the Imperial Jade Seal so badly?

She knew this was the Divine Gift Seal, but she was unaware of its specific effects.

After all, her father had passed away too abruptly, not having the chance to pass on some of these issues to her.

Long Yufei was previously in closed-door cultivation, with her clones mostly traveling the world, studying under different masters. When her father died, she was not around either, naturally unaware of these things.

"Let me just recuperate for a moment."

Long Yurou then stowed away the Imperial Jade Seal and sat down cross-legged, pretending to recuperate while in reality, she was buying time.

For her plan to succeed, the Guardian God was a key element.

She wanted to delay as much as possible, waiting for the Guardian God to finish refining the divine clone and arrive in Longzhou.

Long Yusheng and the others frowned in unison, looking at the cross-legged Long Yurou, puzzled by her actions.

Long Shaotian communicated telepathically, "Father, let's take action now."

Long Yusheng hesitated for a moment before replying telepathically, "Don't be impulsive. The Empress is so composed; she must have something to rely on. Her aura is even more unfathomable than the last time we met; she is very strong. Plus, with the Divine Gift Seal mobilizing the fate of Jiuzhou, we might not necessarily be able to subdue her if it really comes to a fight."

Long Yutian, who had lost an arm, also communicated telepathically, "Brother, aren't there those three Half-step Martial Gods? If they make a move together, they can surely kill her in one strike."

"Yes, big brother, didn't they say they have a way to shield against the ancestors' divine powers?" Long Yuxiang also communicated telepathically.

The voice of Long Yuyan also resounded in everyone's minds, "Big brother must be planning to use them to guard against the Empire's Guardian God, right?"

Long Yusheng nodded and conveyed, "Correct. Once the Empress is trapped, the Guardian God of the Empire will likely appear. That's when we'll need them to hold off the Guardian God."

"Empire's Guardian God?"

Upon hearing these words, Long Yutian and the others all fell silent.

The Empire's Guardian God was a true Martial God.

Before their encounter with the Blood Demon Hall, they couldn't understand why the Empire's Guardian God never left the Imperial City, later they discovered he was guarding the Blood Demon Seal.

However, as important as the Blood Demon Seal was, the Empress was equally vital.

If the Empress were trapped and in mortal danger, the Empire's Guardian God would definitely come out.

If those three Half-step Martial Gods hadn't intervened, they would have certainly died.

Long Yusheng continued to send his message telepathically, "When she uses the Divine Gift Seal to communicate with the Divine Gifted Stele, she must channel all her energy. That will be the best time to launch our attack."

"Understood."

Everyone nodded in unison, each finding a spot to sit cross-legged, quietly regulating their breath, preparing for the final battle.

Yu Fei stood guard next to Long Yurou, watching Long Yusheng and the others with vigilance.

All her clones were on standby, ready to be recalled at any moment to instantly complete the fusion.

...

At the entrance, the veteran liquor brought the remaining Dragon Guards, meeting with the Master of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion and the old crone.

"Veteran Liquor, how did you escape?"

The Pavilion Master of Heavenly Sword Pavilion asked curiously.

The veteran liquor replied, "It was the Empress Dowager, who transformed into the Slaughter Demon and broke through the Ten-layered Formation. Also, the two children His Majesty was looking for appeared, they seemed quite familiar with the Empress Dowager. They told us to leave first. Thinking that His Majesty would come to the Ancestral Land, we hurried here to protect His Majesty."

"Slaughter Demon? What is that?"

The old crone furrowed her brows, her face full of confusion.

The veteran liquor said, "According to that Blood Demon Envoy, the Slaughter Demon recognizes no kin and kills on sight, until it exterminates all living beings. Any living being killed by the Slaughter Demon will be utterly obliterated."

"Hiss!"

The Pavilion Master of Heavenly Sword Pavilion and the old crone gasped in shock. In their many years of cultivation, they had never heard of a Slaughter Demon.

"Did His Majesty go in alone?"

The veteran liquor frowned and looked at the entrance, asking.

The old crone nodded and said, "The Ancestral Land of that Long Yusheng forbids outsiders from entering, otherwise they would be annihilated by the divine power left by the ancestors of the Long Family. His Majesty told us to stay outside and hold off outsiders when the great battle erupts."

"But if His Majesty goes in alone, how will he survive the outbreak of the great battle?" The veteran liquor was somewhat worried.

The Pavilion Master, however, reassured him, "Don't worry, Princess Yu Fei is also there. Although her method of Clone God is not yet fully accomplished, by fusing all her clones at this moment she could at least be elevated to the Half-step Martial God realm. Furthermore, with His Majesty possessing the Imperial Jade Seal, able to stir the Dragon Vein of Jiuzhou, and the fortunes of Jiuzhou, combined with her Peak Martial Emperor cultivation, she will also be able to wield the combat power of a Half-step Martial God. She should be able to protect herself."

Whizz whizz whizz!

At that moment, several figures broke through the air and appeared at the entrance, it was the Blood Demon Envoys and others.

Seeing this, the old crone and others immediately took a defensive stance.

Those Blood Demon Envoys were Half-step Martial Gods, far stronger than they were.

However, the Blood Demon Envoys just looked at them and did not immediately make a move.

They too were waiting for the great battle within the Ancestral Land to erupt, specifically, they were waiting for the Empress to fall into peril so that the Empire's Guardian God would rush to her rescue.

At that time, with the Imperial City left unguarded, it would be the perfect opportunity for him to rescue the Ancient Blood Demon.
