It's time to become a fairy.

After slaying two more celestial officials who had launched a surprise attack, a sudden change occurred when Ye Qingge's sword pierced the chest of the fourth berserk celestial official!

Countless black forces converged, forming a blade of black power behind Ye Qingge, which slashed fiercely at her.

"Soldiers!"

Ye Qingge roared inwardly, and a large shield that had been prepared beforehand was raised behind him. More Dao artifacts emerged from his storage ring, all of them high-grade Dao artifacts from the treasure vault. Layers of defense formed behind Ye Qingge, creating countless Dao artifact defenses. Combined with the amplification of the Dao artifacts by the "Soldier" technique in the Xuan Tian Sealing Magic Method, it can be said that the defensive power was raised to the limit.

A large amount of black power was still gathering, forming the shape of an arm behind the blade, then a shoulder, a head... When Taihuang's head was formed, the blade had already collided violently with the first heavy shield.

Time seemed to slow down. Black power gathered on the blade, and the might of the Great Dao converged on a single point on the blade. Powerful Dao artifacts could not even delay for a second before being instantly pierced, layer by layer.

"With such meager skills, you think you can stop me!"

Taihuang sneered repeatedly.

His attack was too fast and too powerful. Ye Qingge only had time to sheathe her sword and didn't have time to draw it to block in front of her. Out of the corner of her eye, she watched as Taihuang's body gradually solidified, and a third ring of Dao Realm light appeared behind his head. Under absolute power, his defense was broken through inch by inch, and he didn't even have the slightest ability to block it.

"Is this...dying?"

As a terrifying crisis loomed around her, a sense of despair rose in Ye Qingge's heart.

Just as the blade was about to strike, a distant ripple finally reached him.

Ding

A crisp sound rang out from behind, forcefully blocking Taihuang's blade. Ye Qingge turned around sharply and saw a memorial glowing with golden light. It was the memorial that the late emperor had laid out using divine powers and magic, which Ye Qingge had seen in a palace earlier using the Soul Link Technique.

The memorial contained a contingency plan laid out by the late emperor. It emitted a golden light and actually blocked the fatal blow. Taking advantage of this moment, Ye Qingge withdrew and flew away, ready to counterattack at any time.

Taihuang's face darkened, and his figure once again vanished into black power. The golden light on the memorial that had blocked the attack for Ye Qingge also dissipated over a large area, and the entire memorial suddenly tore open, revealing the interior to resemble an imperial edict.

Compared to the original memorial, this imperial edict contained a far more powerful and imposing force, instantly overwhelming the raging black energy within the Lingxiao Palace. A vast amount of golden energy gathered in mid-air, forming a phantom image of the late emperor.

He abruptly unfurled the edict, his voice booming: "Two hundred years ago, I noticed the Empress's unusual behavior. From then until the day of the suppression of the Void a hundred years ago, she never reduced her contact with the demonic seed; on the contrary, the contact became increasingly frequent. To prevent the Heavenly Court from falling into the same fate as the previous dynasty, I married the Demon Emperor and nurtured a new emperor as a backup plan. If this edict is successfully issued, it will mean that the Empress and the rebellious son have successfully seized the throne."

"From this day forward, the position of the rebellious Crown Prince and all the status he usurped are hereby abolished. The throne shall be passed to Su Qing'er, the daughter of Consort Su and myself, as the third Emperor Emeritus, to inherit the will of both myself and the late Emperor. May all the celestial officials join hands with the new Emperor to overcome the difficulties of this time and save the nation from collapse!"

"The traitor will be punished!"

As the last words fell, the phantom of the late emperor roared and pointed forward. The immense power that constituted the phantom converged in one place, completely obliterating most of the black power that permeated the vicinity, and pressed down on the imperial throne.

The forces that had been gathered suddenly transformed into the pale-faced figure of Taihuang, who stood before the imperial throne. After the attack, his aura had dropped a level, and the outermost halo of the three Dao Realm halos behind his head suddenly shattered.

The Underworld Lord, who was originally fighting the God of Justice, seized the opportunity, drew his God-Slaying Whip, and killed the heavily injured God of Justice with one lash. He then rushed towards Ye Qingge, saying loudly, "Your subject, the Underworld Lord, respectfully obeys the late Emperor's edict and supports the new Emperor to succeed to the throne."

"Your subject, the Great Sun Star Lord, respectfully obeys the late Emperor's edict and supports the new Emperor's ascension to the throne!"

"Your subject is Taiyin..."

Shouts rang out from all directions. The chaos caused by the sneak attack was quelled by the late emperor's powerful final strike, and countless celestial officials who had recovered began a frenzied counterattack, converging on Ye Qingge's direction.

"Bastard!"

Taihuang suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and roared to the sky: "You old bastard, do you really think you can do anything to me like this? I am the Emperor Emeritus, the eternal Emperor Emeritus, only I am worthy of this position."

"Traitor Su Qing'er, I have recorded what happened today. Consider yourself lucky today. We will settle accounts another day!"

He reached out and grabbed the Dao Realm Light Wheel behind him. The enormous light wheel actually changed shape in his hand, transforming into a sharp sword that pierced into the ground beneath him.

Originally, under deliberate control, the battle was confined to the Lingxiao Palace. But when he unleashed his full power and slashed at the ground, things changed.

With a full-force strike from the sixth level of the Dao Realm, combined with his understanding of the Heavenly Court's formations, a terrifying crack appeared beneath the Lingxiao Palace with a single sword strike. It quickly spread throughout the entire Heavenly Court, and even the Emperor's Throne could not withstand such terrifying power. Amidst the horrified gazes of countless celestial officials, the entire Heavenly Court groaned under the strain, splitting in two with a single sword strike.

One by one, the formations collapsed. Not only the ground, but even the Nine Heavens, which were established after the founding of the Supreme Emperor's Heavenly Court, began to shake violently and were split apart by a sword. One by one, the immortal officials who had been mutated by the demonic seed seemed to be summoned by the power and moved closer to Taihuang. The remaining immortal officials were pushed away by the black power and pushed to Ye Qingge's side.

Rumble

The terrifying sound shook the void and resounded throughout the nine heavens.

The Heavenly Court originally had no day or night, and was always in the daytime. But at the moment the Heavenly Court split apart, endless darkness poured in from the outside, bringing darkness to the Heavenly Court, which was always in the daytime.

Beside Ye Qingge, the Underworld Lord, the Great Sun Star Lord, and other powerful figures standing in the first echelon, all wore expressions of shame and indignation as they charged forward.

As the Underworld Lord's body gradually appeared, flowing thick rock and countless swirling yin energies emerged; the Great Sun Star Lord's body emanated countless yang energies, resembling a blazing sun; the Yin...

One by one, powerful figures revealed their true forms, instantly transforming into divine bodies ten thousand feet tall. Their bodies continued to grow, seemingly surpassing all the heavens. With their full power unleashed, their strength rivaled that of the sixth level of the Dao Realm. The Underworld Lord's divine power had even reached the sixth level of the Dao Realm, with a Dao Realm halo appearing behind his head, attempting to prevent the Heavenly Court from splitting apart.

At the critical moment, Taihuang took out a sea-blue bead from his person, tapped it lightly, and a surging sound of flowing water came from the bead. Countless streams of water burst out from it, almost turning another part of the Heavenly Court into a watery land. At the end of the water stream, a space suddenly collapsed, absorbing the water stream continuously.

Just as the immortals' attack was about to strike, the space at the end shattered, revealing the scene of the Ruins of Return. The Empress sat in the Ruins of Return, holding a lotus flower in her hand. With a gentle wave, numerous blue lotuses spread out from the depths of the Ruins of Return, flowing upstream and finally converging into an exceptionally large blue lotus. This lotus burst forth from the gap between the Ruins of Return and the other half of the Heavenly Court, blocking the immortals' divine powers and magic, and fiercely confronting them.

The Empress's strength was even slightly inferior to Taihuang's. Two halo-like lights shone behind her head, and her divine powers and magic were no match for the crowd. However, this was not her original purpose. In the short time that the green lotus concealed her, the Heavenly Court completely split apart and swept towards the northern sky. In the blink of an eye, it had disappeared without a trace.

The immortals had no choice but to return.

"This old minister is useless and failed to stop the traitor from splitting the Heavenly Court. I beg Your Majesty to punish me."

The Underworld Lord walked at the forefront of the immortals, his face extremely gloomy. He bowed deeply to Ye Qingge and could not rise. Behind him, the returning immortal officials did the same, bowing deeply to Ye Qingge and not rising.

Further away, the celestial officials all bowed down in unison, creating a spectacular scene.

Ye Qingge was about to say something when, before she could even open her mouth, everything went black and her consciousness left her body.

……

……

[Host has completed the emergency mission and has received the following rewards: 10000 points, and the fourth level of the Celestial Transformation.]

[The host has successfully uncovered the mastermind behind the assassination of the late emperor within three days, earning an excellent rating and receiving a reward bonus, specifically: 10000 points and the Izumo Sword.]

[The host's mission evaluation was excellent, and a double points reward has been successfully obtained, for a total of 40000 points.]

[The host has successfully eradicated the demonic seed threat from the Heavenly Court, eliminating the threat and gaining 10000 points. Fifth level of the Heavenly God Transformation]

[Based on the host's experience of possessing the Empress, the exchange list has been automatically updated.]

When her vision returned, a series of system messages reappeared in Ye Qingge's field of vision.

Once she regained full consciousness and finished reading the messages, Ye Qingge's eyes showed surprise: "40,000 points, plus this last one, a bonus not included in the mission requirements... Is this considered a hidden mission? That makes 50,000 points in total, plus the fourth and fifth levels of the Cloud Sword and the Heavenly God Transformation. This reward is unexpectedly generous!"

"However, this mission was indeed difficult. If I hadn't been lucky enough to obtain the Soul Binding Technique after the mission was interrupted, let alone achieve an excellent completion rate, I'm afraid I would have had difficulty even completing it, and I would have died at Taihuang's hands long ago."

"It's a pity we came back too quickly; we don't know what will happen next."

Ye Qingge clicked her tongue in regret, calmed herself down, and opened her eyes.

In reality, she was still in a state of cultivation. Judging from the abundant spiritual energy around her, the cultivation effect was obviously very strong. However, she did not immediately check her personal panel. Instead, she stretched out her right hand and focused her gaze on the back of her right hand.

On the back of her hand, a third symbol appeared, forming a whole with the original symbol. This was a change that occurred when Ye Qingge returned to Su Qing'er to continue the mission. She didn't have time to check it then, but now that the mission is complete, Ye Qingge finally has time to observe it carefully.

Chapter 67 Revenge Begins, The Non-Existent Campus

Holding the back of her right hand in front of her eyes, Ye Qingge carefully examined the symbols on the back of her hand.

Ye Qingge had only caught a glimpse of the symbol before, and had only a vague impression of it. But now, upon closer inspection, the three symbols, united together with a pale gold hue, were perfectly intertwined in every detail, forming an inseparable whole that gave a sense of neat beauty.

If the previous symbols only gave Ye Qingge a vague feeling, the meaning of the entire symbol became clear after the three symbols were combined.

"Unfortunately, I don't understand these symbols at all. I'll ask Empress Yang Zhao for more details when I have free time to travel tomorrow."

"I remember that before the mission ended, the symbol on my hand hadn't changed, and the system's memory showed the same thing. In other words, the symbol changed between the mission ending and the time I bought the house. Abundant spiritual energy alone shouldn't be enough to change the symbol, and Sister Zhou's house also had plenty of spiritual energy, but it didn't seem to affect the symbol either."

"The most likely explanation is that the symbol's change is due to my sister's bloodline. It's even possible that the symbol sought me out because of our blood relationship!"

Extending his left hand, he gently stroked the skin on the back of his right hand. The skin was delicate and smooth, but from the touch, he could not feel the presence of any symbols.

After staring at it for a while without being able to understand its meaning, Ye Qingge looked away, opened the system panel, and began to sort out her gains.

Name: Ye Qingge

[Cultivation Level: Tenth Level of Divine Awakening]

[Skills: Primordial Dao Scripture (Minor Success), Five Elements Divine Power Level 2 (Minor Success), Soul Devouring Technique (Major Success), Heavenly God Transformation Levels 1-5 (Minor Success), Basic Sword Technique (Beginner), Mysterious Heaven Sealing Magic Technique (Minor Success), Yi Wood Restoration Technique Level 1 (Minor Success), Righteous Qi (Beginner), Mind Illusion Technique (Minor Success), Initial Understanding of Sword Dao (Minor Success), Soul Binding Technique (Special Skill, Incomplete)]

The seven days spent with Su Qing'er greatly improved Ye Qingge's skills!

Although using Su Qing'er's body to perform skills like the Xuan Tian Sealing Magic Technique, which are from other bodies, will not provide the same feeling of enlightenment, Su Qing'er's realm is extremely high, allowing her to see far from a high vantage point. The improvements gained from training with Su Qing'er's body will also be reflected in Ye Qingge's skill panel.

Of the eleven skills, Soul Binding Technique has no proficiency, while the remaining ten skills, Soul Devouring Technique, have reached the Great Perfection stage, and seven have reached the Lesser Perfection stage. Of the remaining two entry-level skills, Basic Sword Technique has not improved due to Su Qing'er's insufficient achievements in the way of the sword; Righteous Qi is a skill that needs to be cultivated, and only she herself can cultivate it, so it is still only in the entry-level stage.

"The mission was difficult, but the rewards were also generous. Now my skills are far superior to what they were before. The fifth level of the Heavenly God Transformation has forcibly boosted my strength to the Dan Sea Realm, truly giving me the ability to fight against vengeful ghosts! Not only that, but I also have the first Soul Devouring Technique to reach the Great Perfection Realm, which greatly enhances my endurance!"

"With enough resources, Su Qing'er's Soul Devouring Technique at its perfect state can rapidly improve her Dao Realm! With the help of the Primordial Dao Scripture, even if my Soul Devouring Technique doesn't reach the Great Perfection, its effect is only slightly inferior to Su Qing'er's. In other words... from now on, I can focus on improving my cultivation without any problems."

"Not just skills, but weapons too!"

Ye Qingge reached out and grabbed at the air, and the Izumo Sword, a reward from the system, appeared in her hand. She gently touched the sword and could clearly feel its sharpness even without touching the blade.

Ye Qingge channeled her spiritual energy into the sword and gave it a brief test. A glint of light flashed in her eyes: "This Cloud Sword, its price in the system shop wouldn't be less than ten thousand. It's a weapon capable of contending against those at the Core Formation Realm. Combined with my current skills, I finally have enough strength to fight against the Misty Demon Sect."

After sorting through her gains, Ye Qingge left the training room and checked the time on her personal crystal brain. It was only 5 p.m.

What bothered her slightly was that after leaving the spiritual energy gathering place in the training room, the symbols on her hand gradually faded again, and then slowly disappeared after leaving the second basement level.

"Besides yin energy, can places rich in spiritual energy also cause changes in symbols?"

Ye Qingge seemed to be deep in thought as she took the elevator to the first floor.

Ip Man-ning was still in the midst of the excitement of moving into her new home and being able to stand up again. The villa had a large garden, which was decorated with many beautifully designed fitness equipment.

Ye Wenning lingered here, sometimes walking in the courtyard, sometimes standing in the pavilion by the lake. Ye Qingge walked in and saw that what really excited the girl was not what was in the courtyard, but the boasting to her best friend on her private crystal brain.

"Sister, you've finished your cultivation."

Seeing Ye Qingge come out, Ye Wenning jogged over, winked, and said playfully, "It's already five o'clock, rich lady, I'm hungry, I'm a freeloader!"

Having been unable to stand for five years, Ye Wenning's trotting posture now that she had regained the ability to walk looked quite strange. Ye Qingge hugged her younger sister, rubbed her head, and said cooperatively, "Okay, okay, I know, let's go out to eat."

Having just moved into our new home, we have absolutely no food stored at all. Living in a villa area has its pros and cons; the nearest market is quite a distance away, so instead of spending a lot of time buying groceries and cooking, it's better to just eat out.

This drawback reached its limit when Ye Qingge arrived at the door and still couldn't find a rental spirit boat.

"Now that I'm not short of money, it's time to buy a Lingzhou. After this busy period, I'll prepare to take the Lingzhou driving test and get a Lingzhou driver's license. After that, I won't need to go through so much trouble."

Ye Qingge rubbed her temples and went to the property management office at the entrance.

Three minutes later, under the allure of Ye Qingge's money, he successfully boarded the property manager's hearse and sailed away, not returning to his villa until six o'clock.

As the sun sets, the orange-red sunlight spreads across the sky. Standing under the pavilion of the villa, you can clearly see the sunlight falling on the water, making it an excellent spot for appreciation.

A lot happened that day. After playing around for a while, Ye Wenning quickly felt tired and returned to her room to rest. Just as Ye Qingge was preparing to cultivate to pass the time, a message notification sound suddenly came from her private crystal brain.

She opened her personal computer and found a message from Yan Yishuang. The mission had changed, and she was asked to arrive at the branch an hour earlier.

Ye Qingge didn't care about this. After sending a message to the branch's logistics department to pick her up at the appointed time, she went back to the training room to practice.
