nTen Thousand Demon Kingdom, Demon Palace.

nDonghuang Ziyou stood in the hall with her hands behind her back while wearing the violet-gold Flying Phoenix Armor.

nAfter two full days of intense battle, the North Mystic Heaven army finally took down the Demon Palace.

nThis meant that from now on, the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom would be under North Mystic Heaven’s control.

n“With such a commotion in this battle, those enemies hiding in the dark will definitely not sit by and watch!”

nDonghuang Ziyou thought to herself.

nFour years ago, the mastermind of the twelve quasi Emperor Realm powerhouses that had ambushed and attacked her still hadn’t been found.

nThis forced her to be on high alert. She had made the best preparations for the war against the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.

n“Your Majesty!”

nRuo Ying’s voluptuous figure walked out of the black light.

nDonghuang Ziyou asked without turning back, “Did you find out anything?”

nWhen the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom’s situation had just been decided, she had Ruo Ying send a top-notch intelligence officer to investigate the situation around the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.

nRuo Ying nodded. “According to the scouts ahead, we discovered strange movements from the demons 300,000 kilometers away from the borders of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.”

n“Demon race?!” Donghuang Ziyou was slightly shocked.

nEven the demons were involved.

nIt seemed that the situation was more complicated than she had imagined.

n“Yes!” Ruo Ying nodded. “As you expected, Your Majesty, they seem to want to set up an ambush there. The most likely place is the Heaven Ascension Valley.”

n“Can you be certain that the final location is the Heaven Ascension Valley?” Donghuang Ziyou turned around.

nRuo Ying shook her head. “Demons are naturally sensitive. Our intelligence officers don’t dare to get too close.”

nDonghuang Ziyou waved her hand and took out a huge map from the void.

nAfter taking a closer look,

nshe narrowed her beautiful eyes and said, “If anyone wants to ambush us, the best place will be the Heaven Ascension Valley.”

nRuo Ying nodded slightly. Not only was Donghuang Ziyou good at governing, but she was also skilled in

nfighting on the battlefield. She was also a heaven-bestowed genius and was proficient in various military strategies and strange Daos.

n“Your Majesty, how can we overcome this difficulty?” Ruo Ying asked.

nAfter taking down the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, Donghuang Ziyou was about to bring her troops back to North Mystic Heaven.

nIf there was an ambush in the Heaven Ascension Valley, she had to pass this round!

nDonghuang Ziyou stared at the map for a moment and took a deep breath. “The enemy’s strength is unclear now, so it isn’t a wise choice to barge in.”

n“I think we can split up into three teams. We’ll force our way through and cover both sides.”

nRuo Ying nodded. “Yes! I will inform the three armies to formulate a concrete battle plan!”

nJust as she turned around, a figure hurried into the hall.

n“Report!”

nThe person who came was the second wave of intelligence officers sent by Ruo Ying.

nRuo Ying said, “What is the news?”

nThe intelligence officer replied, “There was a sudden change at the Heaven Ascension Valley. The demon beasts lying in ambush there were all killed by a powerhouse!”

n“Judging from the remains of the demon beasts and the locations where they ambushed, I estimate that there are at least ten thousand demon ambush soldiers, including hundreds of level-one demons!”

nDonghuang Ziyou raised her head in shock when she heard this. “Is this true?”

n“Absolutely!” The intelligence officer nodded quickly. “I brought my subordinates and personally entered the valley to confirm that the ambushing soldiers there are all dead!”

n“This…”

nDonghuang Ziyou couldn’t help but open her mouth.

nIn such a short period of time, he killed over ten thousand demon beasts in one breath, and among them were hundreds of Tier 3 great demon beasts.

nWho was this mighty figure?

nWhy would he or they be so ruthless to the demons?

nWas it because of North Mystic Heaven or some other reason?

nEven though Donghuang Ziyou was extremely intelligent, she was stunned by the sudden turn of events.

nHowever, in the end, it was a good thing that the ambushers had been killed.

nDonghuang Ziyou immediately gave the order. “Order the three armies to assemble. The platoon will return to North Mystic Heaven in an hour!”

n…

nSouth Mystic Heaven, the royal palace.

nA white figure appeared through the void.

nSouth Mystic Heaven Emperor Qin Cang reached out and grabbed the light figure.

nThis light figure was a communication method used by the demon race called “Flying Feather.”

nHe sent out a strand of spiritual energy to open the Flying Feather, and a heavy message was sent to Qin Cang’s ears.

n“The ambushing troops sent to ambush Empress Mystic Ice were all killed by the mysterious person overnight. Their corpses covered the entire valley!”

n“As a result, Empress Mystic Ice’s journey back to North Mystic Heaven was smooth sailing!”

n“This mission has been declared a failure!”

nQin Cang clenched his fists tightly while his arms couldn’t help but tremble violently.

n“Damn it, how could this be?!”

n“Who did it?!”

nSuch a god-given opportunity had actually been destroyed by the mysterious person. There was simply nothing more aggrieving in the world than this!

nNow, the generous rewards he had given to the demons had been wasted, and Empress Mystic Ice was unharmed.

nThis was really a double loss!

nQin Cang’s heart was burning with frustration.

nHe took a few deep breaths and the coldness in his eyes became more intense.

n“Donghuang Ziyou, you can escape once, but you can’t escape forever!”

n“My ability and methods surpass your imagination. Just you wait. No matter who helps you, I will make you submit to my strength!”

nAfter calming down, Qin Cang revealed a cold smile.

nHe was only one level away from attaining perfection in the South Mystic Heaven royal family’s forbidden technique, the World Devastator Scripture.

nAt that time, he would definitely be invincible in the Emperor Realm, and might even reach the Great Saint Realm!

nWhen the day that he succeeded came, he would make Donghuang Ziyou watch helplessly as North Mystic Heaven was swallowed by a whale.

n…

nNorth Mystic Heaven, Crystal Palace.

nThe bright morning sunlight fell, making the Crystal Palace seem like a dream-like paradise that was incomparably beautiful.

nAfter washing up with his daughters, Lin Xuan cooked an extremely sumptuous and delicious breakfast for them.

nJust as they finished their meal, an old man in a white robe with a refined aura walked in.

n“Greetings, Consort!”

nThe old man was Mystic Ice Palace’s Grand Tutor, Yang Wencheng.

n“Morning, Tutor Yang.” Lin Xuan nodded in return.

nAccording to his understanding, Yang Wencheng was the teacher assigned by Donghuang Ziyou to teach the children and was an official’s disciple.

nYang Wencheng had another identity, and he was one of the ten leading scholars of the North Mystic Heaven.

nHe was as famous as Jiang Jiubai, Shen Yakang, and the others. He could be said to be knowledgeable and respectable.

nIf Donghuang Ziyou did not have time, Yang Wencheng would come to the Crystal Palace at random to teach.

nSeeing Yang Wencheng, Xuan Zhu and the others hurriedly stood up and bowed to him. “Greetings, Grand Tutor!”

n“Greetings!” Yang Wencheng’s eyes were filled with mirth. “The children are so sensible!”

nXuan Zhu went forward and asked, “Teacher, are you going to teach us today?”

nYang Wencheng shook his head and looked at Lin Xuan respectfully.

n“The Consort, your father, is a literary saint, so how would I dare to show off in front of him?”

n“With the Consort with you guys, it’s time for me to step down.”

nLin Xuan nodded slightly.

nYang Wencheng wanted to help Donghuang Ziyou manage the government, but he could not spend all his energy on educating his children.

nNow that he was a professional nanny, he was naturally the best choice for the children.

nWhen the little girls heard this, their eyes flashed with excitement.

nIt must be fun for their father to be their teacher!

nYang Wencheng then took out an ink wash painting from his sleeve and went forward. “Consort, I came here today because I have something I want your help with.”

nLin Xuan saw that this ink painting was covered in snow and ice, and it seemed to be the scenery of North Mystic Heaven.

n
