"daughter!!"

Amid the Black Phoenix's shrill screams, golden flames flew out of the black hole and rushed towards the unconscious Cheng Qingyu.

There was blood oozing from the corners of Liusu's mouth and she was smiling fiercely.

She has already prepared herself to die, but before she dies she wants to drag Cheng Qingyu down with her to avenge Xiao Yuanyuan and the people who died at Cheng Qingyu's hands on Qinglian Mountain!

However, the next moment, the smile on Liusu's face froze.

A black shadow suddenly appeared in front of Cheng Qingyu and engulfed the golden flame of Tianhuangnu.

The Phoenix girl was also stunned: "What's going on?"

Zhou Ling'er cried out and her whole body stiffened.

At that moment, she suddenly felt a huge pressure coming down from the sky, as if the entire sky was pressing down on her.

The blood in my body seemed to have solidified and my bones were creaking.

Fortunately, there were several defensive formations around her, otherwise she would have been crushed to death by the tremendous pressure of spiritual power.

"Oh my god, what came out?"

"An ancient mythical beast?"

"Or an ancient immortal?"

Zhou Linger looked up in horror, only to see that the dark shadow above the cliff had disappeared, and the terrifying pressure that was comparable to the power of heaven and earth had also gone away.

Zhou Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief, only to find that her entire body was drenched in cold sweat.

Liusu and Tianhuangnv, who were closer, were forced to their knees.

"What is that?!" Liusu was shocked.

She was Xia Qinglian's maid and grew up with her. She had seen Xia Qinglian's terrifying power in her prime.

But the power displayed by the black shadow in an instant just now seemed to be no less than that of Xia Qinglian at her peak.

In fact, it is even stronger.

And... Liusu felt that the aura of the black shadow seemed somewhat similar to Xia Qinglian.

What on earth is going on?

The Tianhuang girl spat out a mouthful of blood, and the golden flame on her body could no longer be maintained.

Black Phoenix looked at the two of them angrily:

"How dare you plot against my daughter! You're courting death!"

Suddenly, her expression changed, as if she had heard some instructions, and she immediately said:

"Husband, I'm coming right away."

Then he picked up Cheng Qingyu, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

The charred forest suddenly returned to peace.

Zhou Ling'er held a stack of Thousand Mile Talismans in her hand, with a confused look on her face.

"She's gone? Are we okay?"

Liusu became weak and fell to the ground.

The Tianhuang girl spat out another mouthful of blood and fell down limply.

"Sister Susu, Xiaohuang, what's wrong with you?"

"Wake up, everyone! What should I do alone? Wuuuuu!"

…

The heavenly fighting field.

"The Feixian Ceremony ends here. One month later, the three winners will ascend to the Feixian Pavilion at the foot of Feixian Peak. All cultivators in the world are invited to witness it together!"

With the resounding voice, the curtain of the Feixian Ceremony fell.

The people in the stands were still not satisfied and left one after another.

Liu Xiaotang also mixed in with the crowd and walked out. Before leaving, he exchanged glances with Qiu Zhihe below.

Master, I'll go to Chang'an Palace first to take a look at the situation.

Okay, be careful.

The master and the disciple were in perfect sync and exchanged information in an instant.

Qin Gengyun, Mo Xiaolan and Xu Caihe were being awarded the Immortal Jade Token by Wu Zheng himself. With this jade token, the three of them could go to Feixian Peak and ascend to Feixian Pavilion in one month.

When sending the jade token, Wu Zheng looked at Mo Xiaolan closely. The more he looked, the more excited he became. He couldn't help but asked softly:

"The Orchid Fairy is extremely beautiful. My palace is still short of a concubine. I wonder if you are willing..."

"Emperor Xi, where is my jade token?"

Suddenly, there was a sound of muscles colliding next to him. Wu Zheng turned his head and saw Qin Gengyun's clothes swelling.

That iron tower-like body is intimidating.

Not far away, Qiu Zhihe also gave him an extremely cold look.

Wu Zheng stumbled and almost blurted out "Protect the emperor".

He quickly handed the jade token to Mo Xiaolan, and then handed the other jade token to Qin Gengyun with trembling hands.

Finally he walked up to Xu Caihe and looked at her carefully. He saw that the girl was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with bright eyes, white teeth, and a pink little mouth. Wu Zheng's heart was moved.

Although this girl is not as good as Orchid Fairy and Qiu Zhihe, she is still young and tender. He couldn't help but whisper again:

"Fairy Xu, my palace is still short of a concubine. I wonder if you are willing..."

Cough cough.

Qin Gengyun coughed beside him, and Mo Xiaolan looked at him coldly.

Wu Zheng laughed quickly: "I was just joking, just joking, haha."

Feeling depressed, he hurriedly walked to the outside of the Tiandao Fighting Arena under the protection of the Royal Guards.

"Where's the Queen?"

The eunuch replied, "Your Majesty, the Empress is waiting outside and said she wants to ride with Your Majesty today."

Wu Zheng was startled, a nostalgic smile appeared on his face:

"That's fine. After all, we've been married for so many years. We should say goodbye to her properly."

The eunuch trembled slightly when he heard this, and quickly lowered his head and dared not speak again.

Wu Zheng then asked the commander of the Imperial Guards who was following closely beside him, "How are the preparations in the palace going?"

The commander of the Imperial Guard whispered, "Master Xu and Master Yue have already entered the Phoenix Palace. They are just waiting for the Queen to return to the palace. Once we withdraw the Imperial Palace formation, they will take action."

Wu Zheng nodded: "Where are the Golden Snake Guards?"

The commander said, "Most of the palace's Golden Snake Guards have been sent to maintain order around the Heavenly Dao Fighting Arena."

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "Very good."

The Golden Snake Guards represent the Queen’s power, while the Imperial Guards represent Wu Zheng’s power.

Most of the ministers in the court listened to Lin Yuan.

If Lin Yuan died, and he used both kindness and force, these ministers would naturally have no choice but to turn to him.

By then, the entire Western Dynasty will be truly under his control.

He had been suppressed by Lin Yuan for so many years, and even though he knew that she had given birth to a child for another man, he pretended not to know.

After enduring humiliation for so long, I can finally turn things around.

Queen, you forced me to do this.

A hint of coldness appeared on Wu Zheng's face. He walked out of the Tiandao Fighting Arena and found a golden carriage stopped in front of him.

Wu Zheng's face immediately changed into a gentle smile. He entered the imperial carriage and saw Lin Yuan, who also had a gentle expression on her face. He asked with concern:

"Queen, how is Yiren?"

Lin Yuan said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Yiren hasn't woken up yet. I've asked someone to send her back to Huafang Palace."

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "Yiren is also my daughter, so I naturally care about her... Queen, please look outside."

He opened the curtain and pointed outside the car, where people were coming and going, and it was bustling and noisy.

Lin Yuan also smiled: "The people live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone is equal. Such a grand scene can only be seen in the Western Dynasty. This is all the result of the emperor's hard work over the years."

Wu Zheng held Lin Yuan's hand and said affectionately, "Without the Queen's help, I alone would not be able to do this. Queen, thank you for your hard work over the years."

Lin Yuan looked at him deeply, with a gleam in her beautiful eyes.

"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? I am willing to stay by your side forever and share your worries."

"Xiao Yuan." Wu Zheng hugged Lin Yuan in his arms.

"I will always treat you well!"
