The path to immortality through martial arts begins with being forced into marriage!

Xiao Yuli did not answer, but simply raised her hand and waved it lightly. Soon, a palace attendant came forward with a scroll of bright yellow silk.

The moment Song Ziwei saw this thing, he had a bad feeling. But when he picked up the scroll and opened it, his heart sank to the bottom!

Seeing him standing there frozen in place, the other four Golden Core Realm peak cultivators quickly stepped forward and snatched the scroll away.

They were shocked to discover that this was not a simple scroll, but an imperial edict!

Ban was unaware that the person who issued the imperial edict was not the current emperor, but rather the true pillar of the Xiao family royal family!

The ancestor of the Nascent Soul Mirror!

It's that Nascent Soul Ancestor who's been in seclusion for a hundred years!

But this legendary figure, who is usually elusive and rarely seen, actually acknowledged Xiao Yuli's identity?!

Could it be that this ancestor didn't know...?

The five men looked at each other in bewilderment. After all this, they felt like clowns, running back and forth between the two sides.

In the end... he didn't get the best of either side.

He was ordered by the emperor to go to the Blood-Clad Sect to participate in the siege, but his home was robbed.

I finally rushed back, only to find that the throne had changed hands!

Song Ziwei took a deep breath, looked up at Xiao Yuli, and knew that this matter was now unavoidable.

The existence of the Demon Suppression Division was granted by imperial power. As long as the royal family still exists and the emperor's surname is still Xiao, that Nascent Soul Realm ancestor will continue to be stationed in the Great Yan!

"Song Ziwei, Inspector General of the Demon Suppression Division, pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

With one person setting an example, the other four, no matter how much they resented Xiao Yuli, had no choice but to follow suit.

Even if they don't care about the monks, they should at least consider the Buddha; they don't want to be suppressed by a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Governor Jin Taihe of the Demon Suppression Division pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

"Wei Gaoxuan, Inspector General of the Demon Suppression Division, pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

"Li Anning, Inspector General of the Demon Suppression Division, pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

"Mei Hezheng, Inspector General of the Demon Suppression Division, pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

The surrender of the five people completely put Xiao Yuli's mind at ease.

Once the Demon Suppression Division is taken down, there will be no more obstacles in the entire Great Yan Dynasty!

"Song Ziwei, listen to my command! I hereby order you to lead a team to support Cui Yi and ensure his safe return to the Great Yan!"

Song Ziwei and the others did not have any doubts about this order.

They had all witnessed Cui Yi's astonishing combat prowess within the Blood Robe Sect, and he had indeed single-handedly restrained many others.

It makes sense to spare no effort to save him.

What we must never let down is the heart of those who have made contributions, especially those who have put in a great deal of effort!

"Your Majesty, we obey!"

"Our Lord is currently in seclusion. Once he has completed his seclusion, we will certainly inform him so that he may come to pay his respects to His Majesty!"

Xiao Yuli wasn't too concerned about this matter, because he knew very well that the true pillars of the Demon Suppression Division were not the nominal head of the division, but the five Golden Core stage peak cultivators standing in front of him!

"It's alright. Your five ministers are devoted to the Great Yan. Once this matter is resolved, I will certainly reward them handsomely!"

"Saving lives is a matter of utmost urgency; let's set off immediately."

"Your Majesty, we obey!"

Song Ziwei took the lead and sped off again toward the Blood Robe Sect. After everyone had gone far away, Xiao Yuli sat on the dragon throne and sighed softly.

At the same time, raise your hand and gently stroke your slightly protruding lower abdomen.

Cui Yi.

You must come back alive!

Your son is waiting to see you!

......

......

The former site of the Bloodstained Clothes Gate.

The wind finally stopped, and the ruins were littered with corpses.

Blood pooled into streams, flowing along the cracks in the ruins, accumulating into dark red puddles in low-lying areas, the air thick with an overwhelming stench of blood.

Cui Yi leaned against a boulder, exhausted, panting heavily.

The three demonic sects, who had no intention of resisting, were like clay chickens and earthen dogs in front of them.

It was only then that Cui Yi understood why Chi Gui wasn't as horrified as others when he saw his outrageous results.

My senior brothers and sisters are also outstanding members of the younger generation, and even the most outstanding among the outstanding!

They can kill much faster than I can, and most importantly, their methods are extremely skillful!

If Cui Yi hadn't possessed the mental technique of the Mountain and Sea Collapse Cloud Fist, which allowed him to recover a large portion of his true energy, he would probably have already lost his fighting ability long ago!

However, among the remaining Blood Robe Sect disciples, only three of them truly possessed combat power; the other Foundation Establishment disciples also suffered heavy casualties.

Of the once numerous Blood Robe Sect disciples, only seventeen have survived!

More than 300 people fought until only 17 remained!

What a devastating number!

Zhou Han stood at the front, covered in wounds, one leg already crippled, but he still gripped his sword tightly, staring intently at the fleeing enemies.

The remnants of the three sects had long since lost their will to fight.

All four Golden Core cultivators have perished, and their corpses have been directly stored in the storage space of the Floating Pagoda by Cui Yi.

In his eyes, every Golden Core cultivator was a real lifespan vehicle, let alone four mid-stage Golden Core cultivators!

If he were to completely refine these four corpses and extend his lifespan, he would likely break through to a new record!

As for the nearly one thousand Foundation Establishment disciples of the three major demonic sects, some fled and some died in the previous battles, leaving less than two hundred standing.

They stared at the blood-soaked figure, at the three men who seemed like gods of death, their eyes filled with terror.

Even though they knew that the three of them were already at their limit and exhausted, no one dared to step forward!

Because in the previous battle, Cui Yi, Shen Qing, and Su Zhi had left such a terrifying impression on them.

This led them to believe that even a starved camel is bigger than a horse!

"Junior brother, your combat power is truly astonishing!"

Shen Qing took out a pill from his storage ring and put it in his mouth, which calmed his churning breaths a little.

"I can't compare to my senior brothers and sisters; my skills are just superficial!"

"Junior brother, you are too modest. If you only knew some superficial skills, how could Master have given you the sect leader's token?"

"Moreover, my master also said in his telepathic message to me that if we have the opportunity to rebuild the sect, the position of sect leader will undoubtedly belong to you."

Cui Yi was slightly taken aback when he heard this.

The Sect Leader's Order?

He had almost forgotten about it until Shen Qing brought it up, and only then did he remember it.

Cui Yi took out a blood-red token from his storage ring. This was given to him by Chi Gui at the last moment, who said it was a token of the sect leader.

He always thought that this was just something the Red Demon had asked him to keep.

After all, he was just a junior disciple who had been in the sect for less than a year. He had never even met his senior brothers and sisters. How could he be qualified to be the sect leader?

did not expect……

The teacher was still thinking of him until the very last moment!

Shen Qing looked at him, seemingly able to see what he was thinking.
