Fang Yu turned to the sofa, wanting to sit down, but there were no seats left. The scene had already been almost completely destroyed by Empress Ziwei.
At that moment, the manager of the venue walked in, and seeing the mess in the private room, his face turned exceedingly ugly.
Fang Yu smiled and said, "Manager, bring me a few bottles of wine, to go."
"Wine? To go?" The manager was bewildered.
Who ever asked for wine to go? It was simply laughable.
"What are you waiting for, hurry up…" Fang Yu urged.
"Yes, yes, yes…" The manager quickly went to prepare the wine.
He did not dare haggle at all, even if the whole building were torn down, he wouldn't dare to say a word.
...
Meanwhile.
On Tiandu Mountain.
More than fifty elderly men were outside the great hall, clashing incessantly with the guards, the attendants of the hall.
There were also some younger cultivators from the Five Great Divine Palaces.
Both parties were fighting fiercely.
"You old fools… Have you gone rabid because you've run out of Life Extension Pills? You were meant to be buried in the yellow earth a thousand years ago! Empress Your Majesty graced you with Life Extension Pills, and not only are you ungrateful, but you also attack Tiandu Hall. Such ingratitude... Tiandu Mountain has harbored a pack of ungrateful wretches! Brothers of the Five Great Divine Palaces, surround them… don't let them succeed!"
"Yes!"
The flag of the Wind Divine Temple fluttered atop the mountain peak.
The Hall Masters of the Ice Divine Temple, Killing God Temple, and Bright Temple had all arrived.
They were all truly at Supreme Heavenly Rank.
More than half of these fifty-plus aged men were powerful beings of Supreme Heavenly Rank.
If one asked why the Five Great Divine Palaces were so powerful, why the Seventy-two Sects were willing to submit, why cultivators all over the world did not wish to be their enemies…
The presence of these Supreme Heavenly Rank powerhouses provided a clear answer.
"We just want to take back what originally belonged to us… Empress Ziwei once said that one day she would return these things to us… Sadly, a thousand years have passed. The words spoken by the Empress have never been fulfilled… and even the Life Extension Pills, which we rely on to survive, are being taken from us. Instead, it would be better to tell us directly to just go die! With the three-month deadline approaching, how do you expect us to survive?" One of the elderly men said.
"That's your problem… The Life Extension Pill only serves to extend your lifespan! Without it, you won't die immediately! If it weren't for the Life Extension Pills, you'd be long dead, would you even have the chance to stand here?"
Another elderly man snorted coldly and said, "It's all nonsense… Who fought to establish Empress's kingdom? During the era when Spiritual Energy was scarce, how did Tiandu Mountain maintain its ruling status? Don't you all have any idea in your heart?"
"This is something I don't like to hear… Which of the Hall Masters from the Five Great Divine Palaces has contributions inferior to yours? You speak as if all the merits belong to you alone!" someone said.
"No need for further talk! Either the Empress comes out and makes it clear, or today we, these old timers, will flatten Tiandu Hall!"
"You insolent old fools! Do you think Tiandu Hall is something you can flatten just by saying so!"
In an instant.
Several people leaped out into the air.
The entire top of Tiandu Mountain was enveloped in strong winds.
The howling winds snapped branches.
In a blink of an eye.
The entire mountaintop of Tiandu Mountain was shrouded by the pressure of the Supreme Heavenly Rank powerhouses!
There were cries of pain and screams everywhere.
These fifty-plus elders were once subordinates of the Dragon Emperor.
Following the Dragon Emperor, they conquered the world, their actions were decisive, and they never blinked an eye when killing.
Very quickly.
Blood flowed like a river in front of Tiandu Hall!
"Old buddies… Death can be as weighty as Mount Tai or as light as a feather! Today, let's have a clear stance. Let's see who can kill more, shall we?"
"Yes! Who's afraid of you! It was this feeling back on the battlefield! It's just a pity that today's blades are directed at our own!"
"What 'our own'? These people are that bitch's lackeys! Killing them is justified, not a wrinkle I'll my brow!"
"Good!"
At once.
A storm raged.
The figures of the elderly men had already filled up the area in front of the hall.
The forces from Tiandu Mountain were retreating step by step.
Although they had Supreme Heavenly Rank experts on their side, these fifty-plus old men were fighting with a do-or-die approach, completely disregarding the dissipation of their Inner Essence.
Swoosh.
Swoosh, swoosh.
Heads flew.
At any moment, blood could be seen spraying into the sky.
"Blue Sea Tide!"
"Warm Blue Field Jade!"
"You guys, you actually dare to arbitrarily change the names of your combat skills!"
"Since it's all about fighting, I don't care anymore... I just feel it's exhilarating to call it this way!"
"Thrilling!"
Some elders, gripping dual blades, continuously slashed and hacked through the crowd.
The saying that old soldiers never fade, but grow stronger with age, refers to these very people.
Those younger ones, despite their greater strength, lacked experience.
With every passing second, someone would fall beneath the elders' slaughterous blades.
In the span of a quarter of an hour.
Over fifty elders pushed their way to the front of Tiandu Hall.
The masters of the Five Great Divine Palaces stood in a row in front of the hall, staring intently at the elders with an imposing gaze!
Alas, the master of the Dark Temple had already fallen in battle and could not be present.
"Old fools, I advise you to lay down your weapons and surrender right here. If you insist on breaking in further, don't blame me for not being polite!" The voice of the Killing God Temple's master thundered through the surroundings.
"Save your breath! Bring it on!"
In an instant.
Over a dozen elders charged ferociously forward.
The strong ones of Circulation Heaven Position and Supreme Heavenly Position who tried to stop them were no match at all, blown away by the forceful winds.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—
Just as they were reveling in the slaughter.
A cold voice came from the distant sky—
"Having the audacity to incite internal strife within Tiandu Mountain, have you tired of living?"
Whoosh.
Whoosh whoosh.
Everyone couldn't help but turn to look.
There, on the tree branches to the left of the stairs.
A cold, brocade-dressed woman, stepping on leaves, arrived with the wind beneath her feet.
Arms spread wide, as if she were a graceful bird.
"Empress Your Majesty!"
"Empress Your Majesty!"
"Empress Your Majesty!"
The woman who arrived on the wind was none other than the highest-ranked woman of Tiandu Mountain, Empress Ziwei.
The guards and attendants of the Five Divine Halls and Tiandu Hall at the entrance all knelt simultaneously, hailing the Empress Your Majesty!
Witnessing this scene.
The fifty-plus elders were not the least bit daunted.
"You've arrived just in time!"
"Despicable woman, it's time you handed over Tiandu Mountain!"
"The true ruler of Tiandu Mountain is not you, but the Dragon Emperor Your Majesty!"
"Tiandu Mountain must be returned to its rightful owner!"
The elders exuded a powerful presence, forming a formidable defensive line.
In the skies.
Empress Ziwei flew right in front of Tiandu Hall.
She descended slowly, flung her sleeves with a commanding twist.
Her gaze swept over those fifty-plus elders.
Indifferently she said: "Take them all down... for the crime of storming Tiandu Hall and killing fellow disciples, they deserve death!"
"Despicable woman, you think you can execute us on a whim? Ask my blade first!"
Boom!
An elder with a blade leapt into the air.
At that moment—
Ziwei slowly raised her hand, and on her fingertips, a faint light shimmered to life, expanding from one meter, to two meters, three meters, four meters... until it covered the entire area where the elders were gathered in front of the hall.
Eventually, the whole square in front of the grand hall was enveloped!
"Dammit... my Inner Essence!"
"My power!"
"My Inner Essence is gone, how come!"
The faces of the elders changed drastically!
