There was fire in everyone's eyes, a burning flame of desire.

If they can become superhumans, they can wield immense power, enter superhuman academies to study more profound knowledge, and become divine messengers revered by thousands.

Divine messenger, a synonym for a powerful superhuman.

"Your Majesty...may we dare to peek into such heavenly secrets?!"

They were eager to know what kind of secret technique allowed them to master supernatural powers.

Quan Zhan was just waiting for them to say that.

His voice was deep and resonant as he said, "You are my dearest subjects and ministers, so of course you are entitled to know this, but... before that, you all must apologize to my daughter—Quan Yao, the second princess of the Holy Glory Empire!"

His sharp gaze then fell on his eldest daughter, Quan Ji, "Especially you, your ignorant behavior will make you miss the only chance to turn your life around!"

Quan Ji only felt a headache.

Unfortunately, her current abilities are too limited, and she can't control Quan Zhan, who possesses the strength of a Great Martial King. Otherwise, she really wanted to make Quan Zhan perform a headshot in public.

She really didn't care about the superpowers that came from those trashy secret techniques.

In particular, the side effects of that secret technique are too great.

She didn't want to take it.

Quan Ji's cold attitude made Quan Zhan very unhappy.

He even doubted how he could have such a foolish daughter, who had none of the demeanor of a member of the Quan family!

He remained silent, and the other officials dared not speak either.

He then turned his gaze to his ministers.

"You must always remember that the ability to completely master this secret technique is all thanks to Quan Yao's own risky actions! She risked being seen as a scoundrel to personally test it for us!"

"Yes! I believe many of you have already guessed it. Quan Yao's awakening of her supernatural abilities, and what happened yesterday... they are inevitably related. As for what exactly they are, after the Holy Conferment Ceremony, I will personally impart the secret techniques to qualified residents of the Empire. At that time, you will naturally understand!"

Hearing Quan Zhan's words, everyone felt a strong urge to try it out.

At the same time, they were also relieved about one thing.

Princess Quan Yao was indeed not the kind of lewd and lustful woman.

“I knew Princess Quan Yao was pure and noble. She risked her life for us. It’s reassuring to have such a royal family in the empire.”

"Yes, Princess Quan Yao has the empire at heart, unlike Consort Quan, who only knows how to bring shame to the imperial family!"

"We really want to know what the secret technique is. Princess Quan Yao has risked her life, we must not let her down."

...

All of these people's words reached Quan Ji's ears.

After hearing this, she was speechless.

A bunch of idiots.

No wonder the Holy Glory Empire was only a second-level empire after five hundred years. She didn't even realize that the empire's inhabitants were like this before it was conferred the title of Holy Glory. She was really focused on conquering the battlefield!

Just then, Quan Yao, feigning concern, ran right into Quan Ji's line of fire: "Sister, don't you really want to know how powerful this secret technique is? Once you have superpowers, no one will look down on you anymore!"

"I will tell you the secret technique if you kneel down and apologize to me in front of everyone."

Swish—

hiss--

Almost instantly, Quan Ji grabbed Quan Yao's neck and pinched it hard, her gaze extremely cold.

"Quan Yao, don't make me emphasize our relationship over and over again."

"A fool who is ridden by a thousand men and ridden by ten thousand."

To be able to be so smug about it, what a jerk.

Her tone was so cold it seemed to freeze the entire altar.

Quan Yao grabbed Quan Ji's hand in discomfort, her pretty face flushed red from holding her breath, and she started rolling her eyes. She wanted to gather her supernatural power, but her body simply wouldn't obey her commands.

She was completely crushed by Quan Ji's simple pinch.
