Chapter 653 Against Zhou Hanling
In an invisible state, Zhang Fei [1] stood behind the dense trees while watching Zhou Hanling, who was sitting cross-legged in the distance. He could feel that the old man's senses were locking onto Zhou Shenxin. 'As expected! Zhou Xiaochuan never trusted his children, especially his daughters.'
Zhang Fei [1] then observed the forest area around him before coming up with an idea. He then looked for a slightly wider area in the forest, set up the portable illusion formation array there, and summoned three other clones. The first to arrive were Feltia [2] and Zhang Fei [4], followed by Zhang Fei [5], who brought the naked Zhou Meiling out of the Yin-Yang Space.
Although she knew that the four men in front of her were Zhang Fei's clones, Zhou Meiling was still embarrassed to be naked in front of so many men at once. She wanted to struggle to break free, but her cultivation was sealed, and she also didn't know what he had done to her that she couldn't speak. 'Sigh! Does he intend to violate me in a gang?'
"Foolish woman!" Zhou Meiling frowned at Zhang Fei [1]. "Your naked body doesn't even arouse me, so you don't need to think that I will violate you in a gang."
'Can he read other people's minds?'
Zhang Fei [1] shook his head and pulled Zhou Meiling to the center of the formation. He then forced her to lie down on the ground and confined her subconscious using his dream imprisonment ability.
Zhang Fei [1] then turned to the three clones, who immediately spread out to several sides of the forest. He then went to lure Zhou Hanling. Despite the old man's significantly higher cultivation than his, he was confident in his ability to evade him and trap him.
As soon as Zhang Fei appeared in the distance, Zhou Hanling immediately turned towards him. 'Isn't he that brat? What is he doing here? Since he is in front of me, I will capture him and bring him to Zhou Xiaochuan.'
Zhou Hanling did not immediately move and looked at Zhang Fei [1], who pretended not to notice his presence. He leisurely walked into the forest, and the old man immediately stood up before carefully following behind him.
When they were a little deeper in the forest, Zhang Fei[1] immediately disappeared using his invisibility. Zhou Hanling was shocked to see that and tried to track his whereabouts, but he saw Feltia [2] moving erratically in another area of the forest, so he immediately followed him.
However, Zhou Hanling was once again confused when Feltia [2] suddenly disappeared, only to discover that Zhang Fei [4] was already far ahead of him. 'What the hell? How can that brat move so fast with his low cultivation? Furthermore, his movements resemble those of a ghost, making it difficult for my senses to lock onto him.'
Zhou Hanling immediately followed Zhang Fei [4], but he disappeared once he almost reached his location. Zhang Fei [5] suddenly appeared in the distance, sprinting rapidly to lure the old man toward the trap's location.
As anticipated, Zhou Hanling trailed closely until he reached the trap location, but Zhang Fei [5] had once again vanished from his view.
However, Zhou Hanling's expression changed to shock when he saw Zhou Meiling lying on the ground, but he did not immediately approach his niece and check the surrounding area. 'So it's true that Meiling fell into the hands of that brat, huh? Did he deliberately use her to lure me into his trap?'
Zhou Hanling then picked up some rocks from the ground, infused his qi into them, and threw them at Zhou Meiling. However, the area did not show any reaction, so he thought there were no traps there.
Even so, Zhou Hanling did not rush to approach his niece. He carefully walked toward her, holding two sickles connected by chains at both ends.
Soon, Zhou Hanling arrived slightly in front of Zhou Meiling, but her naked body caused a lump to protrude from beneath his trousers, and his expression became lustful while licking his lips.
The four clones, in their invisible state, watched Zhou Hanling's reaction and could only shake their heads. 'This old man! He lusts for his niece's body!'
"Hahaha! Back then, Zhou Xiaochuan snatched her mother from me, and I will snatch her daughter from him today." As soon as he walked forward to approach Zhou Meiling, Zhou Hanling sensed the movement of Qi from the ground, forcing him to retreat. "Fuck! It's a trap!"
The four Zhang Fei clones, who were already behind Zhou Hanling in the invisible state, immediately kicked his back at the same time.
"Guah!" Zhou Hanling screamed as he staggered forward, but before he could stabilize himself, the four Zhang Fei clones simultaneously used the demon king's roar.
*Roar... Roar... Roar... Roar....*
The four deafening roars made Zhou Hanling dizzy and nauseous, but the four Zhang Fei clones were already moving above him with their right legs raised. They immediately swung their feet at his head and shoulders, sinking his feet into the ground. "Gah!"
They immediately moved away from Zhou Hanling, and Zhang Fei [1] pulled Zhou Meiling from there, activating the portable illusion formation array in the process. At that moment, an illusion materialized before the old man's eyes, causing him to scream in terror. "Argh! No! Don't come any closer!"
After Zhou Hanling fell into the trap, Feltia [2] and Zhang Fei [4] immediately entered the training space again, and Zhang Fei [5] brought Zhou Meiling back to the Yin-Yang Space.
"It seems like he saw a terrifying illusion." Zhang Fei [1] shook his head as he listened to Zhou Hanling continue to scream in fear. "This way, I just need to wait for his mental breakdown, and I can do something about him after this."
Zhang Fei [1] then returned to the capital, but within a few moments, he had already returned to the forest, accompanied by Zhou Shenxin.
"You are really like a ghost! You suddenly appeared and brought me here!" Zhang Fei [1] smiled and pointed at Zhou Hanling, shocking Zhou Shenxin. "How did you manage to trap my uncle in an illusion?"
"Secret." Zhang Fei [1] replied with a wink. "I knew he was always monitoring you, and he was also thinking of targeting my three wives at the restaurant, so I decided to act."
Zhou Shenxin was completely shocked by Zhang Fei [1]'s actions, especially since his cultivation was far below his uncle's. She then took several deep breaths before asking. "Do you realize that you are too terrifying? Although your cultivation is still in the ten mortal realms, you have already defeated many cultivators in the Seven Divine Realms, which is why I am truly terrified of you."
"Haha." Zhang Fei [1] laughed and pulled Zhou Shenxin into a hug. "Why should you be afraid of me? I already said that I want you, and I would never hurt the woman I want."
Zhou Shenxin did not comment on that and looked at Zhou Hanling again. "What are you going to do to him? Are you going to kill him?"
"Why should I kill him if he is still useful to me?"
"Then, what are your plans?" Zhang Fei [1] immediately whispered something into Zhou Shenxin's ear, causing her to look at him with wide eyes. "Can you really do such a thing?"
"You can watch it later, but we have to wait for your uncle's mental breakdown first." Zhou Shenxin nodded in understanding, especially since Zhou Hanling's cultivation was too high for the current Zhang Fei [1]. "Do you still doubt that I can change your future? If you become my wife, I can help you become the Empress of the Zhou Kingdom, and they will all submit to you, including Zhou Xiaochuan."
"Can you really help me become the empress?"
"Do you still need to doubt my abilities?" Zhang Fei [1] asked her back. "If I wanted to, I could kill your uncle right now, with or without Feng Yao's help. As for your father, I found something interesting about him, and I can use that to destroy him."
Zhou Shenxin was curious about his plans for her father, but Zhang Fei [1] just smiled at her without any intention of explaining. "If I accepted you as my man and you helped me become empress, wouldn't you become emperor?"
"Do you think I am suitable to be an emperor?" Zhou Shenxin nodded at Zhang Fei [1]. "Haha! In my eyes, status is nothing compared to a free life. I'm a free man and don't like being tied down with complicated matters, and I'm lucky to have many wives who can help me take care of trivial matters. This way, I can focus on my strengths, and I can help them become strong. However, having an empress's wife should be satisfying, so I want to have one."
Zhou Shenxin stared at Zhang Fei [1] for quite some time. "Help me become the empress of my kingdom, and I'll be your wife."
"Are you sure about that?"@@novelbin@@
"Yes."
Zhang Fei [1] smiled in response. "Before I help you become the empress of your kingdom, you must first focus on improving your cultivation, and you must also build up your power. A ruler must have clear power, or the people will never obey you, and they may rebel against you."
"Yeah, you're right." Zhou Shenxin replied with a heavy sigh. "There are so many people who are much stronger than me in my kingdom, including my mother, uncles, aunts, and half-siblings. Not to mention, my father has so many concubines, so a power struggle will immediately break out if you get rid of my father, and we won't be able to compete against them."
"That's right." Zhang Fei [1] nodded at her. "In a power struggle in your kingdom, only your seniors can get involved, and you can't become empress unless you kill them all, which is impossible. So, who are the people on your side now?"
"Not much." Zhou Shenxin replied disappointedly. "In my kingdom, women are not respected and have no value, so we can't get too involved in political affairs, and they always think of us as tools to smooth things over. Almost all the seniors side with my half-brothers, especially Zhou Tong. Only my mother and her family support me, but she's one of my father's concubines and has little political power. Fortunately, I was born with a good talent, and I can compete with my half-brothers, but my hard work is still meaningless because I am a woman."
Zhang Fei [1] nodded in understanding. "Even though it is difficult, I am still confident that I can make you the empress. However, the process will not be quick, so you must be patient while continuing to improve yourself."
"Yeah."
Time quickly passed, and Zhou Hanling's screams stopped an hour later, followed by the disappearance of the effects of the portable illusion formation array.
Zhang Fei [1] immediately checked Zhou Hanling's condition. His face was already ashen, and he looked like an idiot after his mental breakdown.
"Are you really going to do that to him?" Zhou Shenxin asked.
"Yeah." Zhang Fei [1] directly touched Zhou Hanling and did several things to him. Once he was done, he forced the old man to swallow some pills to recover from his condition. "It's done! He will wake up on his own, and he will return to your kingdom right after that. You should stay in the Xian Capital first, and I will see you tonight."
"What do you want to do meeting me at night?"
Zhang Fei [1] chuckled and hugged Zhou Shenxin's waist. "Shouldn't it be obvious, my future empress?"
Zhou Shenxin did not answer that. "Let's go back."
After he sent Zhou Shenxin back to his inn, Zhang Fei [1] immediately left him and returned to the training space.
Zhou Shenxin then sat cross-legged on the bed and thought back to her conversation with Zhang Fei [1] earlier. "Becoming an empress is not my ultimate goal; my ultimate goal is to become a free woman. Unfortunately, I will never be free as long as I live in my father's shadow, and the only way to gain my freedom is to overthrow him and take over his position. I don't know how he'll help me, but he should be able to do it with all his absurd abilities, so I'll place my hopes on him."

Meanwhile, Yun Xinyue and the others arrived at the building, and they immediately helped Zhang Fei in the renovation process.
Feng Yao took a leisurely seat and exerted pressure on Wei Chou and the other members of the Alchemy Union, ensuring that none of them dared to disturb them.
Time passed swiftly, and the sun had once again set. Zhang Fei immediately summoned his fifth clone so his clone could continue the renovation process.
Zhang Fei then brought the eight women back to his residence to have dinner with his grandmother and the others. After finishing their meal, he sent them all into the training space, except for the Phoenix Princess, who was going with him to meet Xin Yanluo and Ju Yingzhi.
Feng Yao then asked him. "What are you going to do now? We still have a few hours before midnight."
"I'll break through first." Zhang Fei's answer surprised Feng Yao. "My cultivation has increased too quickly because I absorbed most of Huangfu Ziyuan's Qi three days ago, but my cultivation is not stable yet. Fortunately, I have my clones and training space, so my cultivation is stable now."
"I see." Feng Yao nodded in understanding. "In that case, we go to that island now, and you can break through there while waiting for them to come to us."
"Yeah."
Upon their arrival at the small island in the southern ocean, Zhang Fei immediately summoned the thunderbird out of the beast space and sat on his back. He and all his clones except the fifth were immediately cultivated to complete the daily quest, or he would run out of time.
Meanwhile, Feng Yao stood a little away from them and enveloped the small island with her aura. 'His cultivation speed is terrifyingly fast! If he continues to improve this fast, he might be able to surpass me in ten years or maybe less.'

After several hours of travel, the groups from both demon kingdoms arrived at the Star Tower, and they immediately led their respective men toward the stone obelisk.
Since all of them had already challenged the tower up to several floors, the test of strength was not a significant obstacle for them, and all of them managed to pass without any effort.
Unfortunately, the challenges that awaited them inside were different from those in the past, especially since the old man who controlled the tower deliberately increased the difficulty severalfold.

In the Blossom Heaven Realm.
Ma Mingxin, who was still furious and disappointed over losing Meng Qi, suddenly felt many powerful auras entering her realm. She rushed out of her house and looked up at the sky, finding seven large, luxurious flying artifacts entering the realm. "Who exactly are they? How did they know about the Sun Tower in this realm?"
"Big Sis."
Ma Mingxin turned to Ma Xiaowei, who had just arrived. "I sensed a terrifying aura from one of those flying artifacts, and its owner seems to be vicious, so you must order our people not to approach them."
"Yes, big sis."
Your next chapter awaits on My Virtual Library Empire
In front of the Sun Tower, Feng Jiu and the others immediately opened their eyes after sensing the arrival of the six flying artifacts.
However, a giant fox with golden fur and nine tails jumped down from one of the flying artifacts. "Husband! I'm coming for you!"
"Hahaha!" Feng Jiu laughed out loud after hearing that, and she immediately turned to the Nameless One, who had already moved away from them. "Brother, your future wife is too excited to meet you."
The Nameless One bitterly smiled as he looked up at the golden fox. Xue Bao, lying on his shoulder, could only shake his head at the behavior of the two. "That seductress never stops trying to seduce you, Master."
