Chaos Heavenly Emperor Art

Om-!
The Heavenly Dragon Blood Pearl suddenly erupted with an unbearable crimson divine light!
A clear, blood-red phantom soared into the sky, coiling above the Crystal Energy Bank, unleashing a terrifying roar that shook the very soul!
In an instant, the expressions of those descendants who possessed the bloodline of the Longze family changed drastically, and then they prostrated themselves and knelt down in worship.

Heavenly Dragon Blood Pearl!
That is the core sacred object symbolizing the source of the supreme bloodline of Longze and the patriarch of the family!
There has long been a rumor within the clan that although the current clan leader, Ryuzawa Hideichi, inherited the divine office of Amaterasu, he did not obtain this sacred object.

Now it seems that it may not just be a rumor.

It turns out that the previous clan leader actually passed on this Heavenly Dragon Blood Pearl to Long Ze Liyue!
Soon, everyone with the blood of Longze flowing through their veins, regardless of their thoughts, had their blood boil under the powerful pressure of the Heavenly Dragon Blood Pearl, and involuntarily bent their knees!
A series of terrified, resentful, and awe-inspiring gazes were cast toward the woman holding a blood bead behind the shattered, enormous window!

In the blink of an eye, the Bauhinia Bank has been taken over by Long Ze Liyue.

"This is just the beginning!"

Long Ze Liyue raised her head high and looked up at the sky above, at the faintly visible sky city.

"Brother, you didn't expect me to come back, did you?"

She took a deep breath and immediately looked at the Longze family members kneeling on the ground.

"From this day forward, the person standing beside me is the new Grand Elder of the Longze family, Long Fei!"

After Long Ze Liyue finished speaking, not only the members of the Long Ze family, but even Ling Feng was stunned for a moment.

Is this woman really capable of acting first and informing later, directly binding me to her warship?

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled wryly, but it didn't matter. Once he helped her completely subdue the Longze family, his power would grow even stronger.

As for the name Long Fei, it was something Ling Feng had discussed with Long Ze Li Yue beforehand.

"Second Miss, this is probably... against the rules?"

One of the older members of the Longze family changed his expression.

Within the Heavenly Realm Division, all the elders are still "alive and well," so there's no rule about arbitrarily appointing a new Grand Elder.

"That's Ryuzawa Shuichi's rule!"

Long Ze Liyue frowned slightly. "Now, I'm back! My rules are the only rules!"

She gave a soft snort, flicked her finger, and the clansman who had just spoken died instantly, his brains splattering out. He fell straight down.

Faced with such swift and decisive action, the remaining people trembled in fear, not daring to utter a single word of dissent.

Soon, with the cooperation of these "family elites", Long Ze Liyue finished inventorying all the inventory of the Zijing Bank.

The inventory of Fangus crystals alone amounted to as much as thirty tons!
Ling Feng had once mined crystals at the bottom level, and he had mined thirty tons of Fang Ges crystals, which were already processed and refined.

It would probably take digging through hundreds of mineral veins to accumulate such a terrifying stockpile.

As expected of the top-tier Crystal Energy Bank in the First Calamity City!
According to Long Ze Liyue's previous promise, Ling Feng can directly receive 70% of it!

That is a full twenty-one tons of Fang Ges crystals!

Ling Feng didn't stand on ceremony and went straight to the crystal vault. With a wave of his hand, he put everything into the Eastern Emperor Bell.

A portion will be distributed to help the disciples of the Martial Alliance and the Chaos Temple improve their cultivation.

The rest were directly absorbed and refined to enrich the primordial chaos.

……

Over the next month, this same scene, which unfolded at the Bauhinia Vine Energy Bank, continued to play out in the eastern, southern, and western districts of the First Catastrophe City...

"Crystal Valley" crystal ore refining group headquarters; "Star Ring" rail logistics hub control center; "White Tower" cutting-edge research and development institution...

The core businesses of the Longze family, scattered throughout the First Calamity City, changed hands one after another!

Almost all of the properties belonging to the Ryuzawa family are being forcibly taken back by Ryuzawa Liyue.

Moreover, she did not overstep her bounds; she only affected the Longze family's businesses, and she did not infringe upon the businesses of other families.

Even after taking over the family business, he was willing to sacrifice the Longze family's own interests in order to consolidate the original trade relations with other families.

This left the city hall officials with no way to intervene.

Firstly, since other families have received tangible benefits, they will not allow the city hall to deliberately suppress Ryuzawa Liyue.

Secondly, this is, after all, an internal matter of the Longze family.

The Longze family is a top-tier family with clergy, which cannot be managed by a small city hall.

It's obvious to anyone with eyes that the second young lady of the Longze family wants to reclaim the Amaterasu divine position from the Longze family.

Intervening arbitrarily before the outcome of this contest is clear is by no means a wise move.

It must be said that Ryuzawa Riyue is indeed a meticulous woman.

"It's been a month..."

Inside a luxurious manor, Long Ze Liyue lay on her side on a soft sofa, her slender, fair fingers gently holding a wine glass, and she drank the scarlet wine in it in one gulp.

"He should be losing his temper by now."

Long Ze Liyue gently licked the wine stains from the corner of her mouth, her gaze full of charm and allure before falling on Ling Feng.

"Thank you for your hard work this past month. My... Elder Long Fei."

Ling Feng shrugged, remaining seated cross-legged without even opening his eyes, and said calmly, "Your older brother is really patient. If it were me, I would have made a move long ago!"

Long Ze Liyue smiled and said, "He's always been cautious. This month, he's probably been frantically searching the world for information about you."

"Don't worry, he won't find anything."

Ling Feng raised an eyebrow and smiled, "After all, 'Chen Hu' is currently in the bottom city, making the Chaos Temple a great success! And during this time, I have never revealed any of the abilities of Nightmare, Xing Tian, ​​or even the Chaos God."

"Right now, I am just Long Fei."

"That's why he hasn't shown up yet."

Long Ze Liyue pouted and continued, "However, tomorrow I plan to take over the Long Ze family's headquarters as well. My original power is sealed there, and I think he will no longer be able to hold back."

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled wryly, "Then why didn't you just lead me to storm into the Long Ze family mansion from the start?"

"Then it wouldn't be fun. Without this process, how could I experience the thrill of reclaiming everything that belongs to me?"

Long Ze Liyue snorted lightly, "Besides, you didn't lose out, my Great Elder!"

For every portion of the assets she reclaimed, Ling Feng would receive a large sum of money.

"You've already taken over most of the Longze family's assets, so you might as well let them benefit from it too!"

Long Ze Liyue raised her head and said with a smile, "Fine wine and beautiful women, aren't you even a little bit tempted?"

Ling Feng took a deep breath and felt a slight surge of heat rise within him. He quickly shook his head, banishing that distracting thought from his mind.

"I think I'll prepare for tomorrow's battle!"

Having said that, Ling Feng stood up, turned, and walked out of the room. "You..."

Long Ze Liyue was so angry that she gritted her teeth. This brat really has no sense of romance.

……

Sky Zone, at the summit of the Holy City of Judgment.

On the seventh arm of the "Ring of Judgment" that encircles the Holy City, lies the exclusive secret sanctuary of Ryuzawa Shuichi, the seventh masterpiece of the Cleric's Academy.

At this moment, inside the Seventh Temple.

Ryuzawa Shuichi did not wear his signature ornate divine throne robe, but only a simple, almost austere, silver-white linen long robe.

He stood with his hands behind his back in the center of the temple, calmly watching the scenes of Longze Liyue reclaiming the family's core assets coming from the Longze family mansion in the upper city.

However, this calm is only superficial.

His hands, clasped behind his back, were so tightly knuckled that every knuckle was white.

Every image, every flash, made Ryuzawa Hideichi regret his past actions.

"Liyue, you truly are my good sister. Even after having your essence stripped away, you can still make a comeback!"

The murderous aura in his eyes intensified, but his gaze remained fixed on the mysterious man wearing a golden mask in all the images.

Who exactly is he?

Up until this moment, all he knew was one name: Long Fei.

Just then, an old man, thin as a rake and dressed in a priest's silver robe, silently walked up behind Ryuzawa Hideichi and bowed deeply.

"Patriarch, from the main branch... Elder Chongming has sent a message for the twelfth time. Miss Liyue, wielding the sacred artifact, the Heavenly Dragon Blood Pearl, has already seized over 80% of the family's resources and assets. At this rate, I'm afraid..."

"Snapped!"

There was a crisp sound.

A wisp of pure light that Long Zexiu had gathered at his fingertip suddenly went out of control and slammed hard onto the smooth, mirror-like Holy Crystal ground, leaving a long, thin scorch mark and sending up a few wisps of smoke.

He didn't turn around, his voice as calm as a turbulent undercurrent beneath a frozen lake: "Afraid of what? Afraid of taking away my position as clan leader?"

The priest lowered his head even further, cold sweat trickling down his graying temples: "The elders say... the power of the Blood Pearl still exists. If... if Miss Liyue uses the Heavenly Dragon Blood Pearl to perform the 'Blood Dragon Ritual' and forcibly strip away her divine authority, Chieftain..."

"enough!"

Ryuzawa Shuichi suddenly turned around!

A violent aura suddenly erupted, and outside the Seventh Holy Temple, the sea of ​​clouds roared and churned as if being stirred by an invisible giant hand!
His eyes were no longer calm, but burning with molten rage and a hint of...

A fear that runs deep in one's bones!
He possesses divine authority and is the seventh seat of the twelve divine thrones.

Once he is stripped of his priesthood, he is nothing!

He clenched his fists.

Based on his understanding of Long Ze Liyue, he knew that Long Ze Liyue would definitely attack the family mansion next.

If she were to reclaim the sealed origin, it would likely introduce many new variables.

Om-!
Without warning, the entire sky seemed to suddenly darken!
It wasn't that dark clouds blocked out the sun; rather, it was as if someone had instantly removed all the light sources, drawing a deep, boundless starry sky over the heavens!

"coming!"

A slight smile appeared on Long Zexiu's lips.

The reason he endured and held back for so long was that he was waiting for this person.

next moment--

Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!
Billions of dazzling starlight suddenly lit up in that deep darkness!
Immediately afterwards, a staircase formed from pure starlight silently descended from the deep sky, extending all the way to Ryuzawa Shuichi's Seventh Temple.

A figure emerged from the staircase, bathed in light.

She was barefoot, and with each step she took, a ripple of starlight bloomed beneath her feet, as if she were walking on a frozen galaxy.

A long dress woven from starlight wrapped around her slender and graceful figure, with stardust flowing down the hem, as if she were draped with a condensed galaxy.

At the same time, Ryuzawa Hideichi's figure flashed and disappeared into the temple.

He strode out of the temple, looked up at the descending starry staircase, and a smile appeared on his lips. "Sariel, you've finally come!"

The newcomer was none other than Sariel, the tenth seat of the twelve divine thrones of the Divine Court, the Goddess of the Stars.

Although she is ranked tenth, she is still a first-class deity.

She controls a vast amount of star power, and in some ways, she has even greater potential than Ryuzawa Shuichi, the seventh seat holder, and the eighth and ninth seats ahead of her.

Sariel simply disliked fighting, which is why he got the tenth seat.

"After all, I owe you a favor, Shuichi."

Sariel looked at Ryuzawa Shuichi with her jewel-like eyes and said calmly, "But I still have to give you a piece of advice: Liyue is still your sister."

"She shouldn't have come back."

Long Zexiu clenched his fists. "I already gave her one chance. If she could stay peacefully in the bottom city, I could turn a blind eye to whatever she did. But she still came back!"

"She's going to take everything away from me!"

A hint of anger flashed in Long Zexiu's eyes. "You saw it, Sariel, she initiated the provocation! I asked you to intervene this time because I hope you can persuade her to give up! If you can do that, I will consider giving her a second chance. I will not take action against her unless absolutely necessary!"

"OK then."

Sariel sighed softly, "I will help you persuade her."

"Thank you very much."

A slight smile appeared on Long Zexiu's lips.

The suggestion to persuade Ryuzawa Liyue to return to the bottom city was just a pretext.

Based on his understanding of Long Ze Liyue, he knew that the woman wouldn't come back without thorough preparation.

She was well aware of her own strength, so the "Long Fei" beside her was definitely not simple.

To avoid a disastrous outcome, bringing along Sariel, this "foolish" woman, was undoubtedly the best choice.

With her strength and background, she was more than capable of figuring out Long Fei's true strength.

"My dear sister, now that you've broken your promise and returned, don't blame me! This time, you will die!" (End of Chapter)
