Don’t Mess with that Turtle

498: Chapter 109: Phoenix Chao Fei Slays Empress Feng_1 498: Chapter 109: Phoenix Chao Fei Slays Empress Feng_1 The Bright Moon was in the sky, yet the stars were not sparse.

Tonight, the starry sky began to pulsate, and stars from all directions made their appearance.

The Sealed Emperor Palace fell into a deathly silence.

There were no wails, no anger, only silent bricklaying and restoration.

The Sealed Emperor Palace had endured several destructions, some caused by the Mystery Huang World, others by internal strife, but it had always managed to survive.

The Ministry of Works had ways to restore the imperial palace to its original state, not leaving behind the slightest trace.

But the scars left in the hearts of the people, how were they to be erased?

The hall where the Empress Feng usually resided had already collapsed, its traces erased, and she had now moved to the Eternal Joy Palace.

Inside the palace, there were no maidservants, only Emperor Luan and Empress Feng.

Emperor Luan withdrew his finger from Empress Feng’s forehead, removing the trace of the Void Candle Mountain Divine God Seal.

The hollow on Empress Feng’s brow healed, and her terrifying face was replaced by one as stunning as the Moon Hibiscus, truly a sight to behold.

Her arms had regrown, but her aura had become feeble.

“Lady Qiong has been wronged.” Emperor Luan’s voice carried a hint of apology as he stroked the top of the empress’s head, showing a rare doting affection.

Empress Feng shook her head, “What does this count for?

Compared to what Your Majesty has endured, this injury is nothing.”

Emperor Luan took out a pill medicine from the Three-legged Ding and placed it in Empress Feng’s hand, “Fortunes and misfortunes rely on each other, having sustained such a serious injury may not necessarily be a bad thing.

You should just announce that you are going into seclusion for healing and hide your presence.

Make a trip to the Star Sea.”

Empress Feng looked up, “Alright!”

Emperor Luan embraced her, “I wouldn’t be at ease if it were anyone else, but since it’s you going personally, it’s different.

However, you must be careful not to be discovered by the people of the Mystery Huang World, nor by the old ancestors.

Stay hidden, quietly.”

Empress Feng nodded, then suddenly looked up, “Your Majesty, no matter what, the Dragon Turtle Tribe must be slain!”

The Dragon Turtle Tribe had the backing of Thai Zu, the support of White Spirit, and behind them…

that Little Dragon Turtle named Su He might not be easy to handle either.

If not now, when would they act!

Even the Dragon clan didn’t inspire such dread in her.

Even if the attack today occurred three, five, or even ten more times, it would not damage the foundations of the Sealed Emperor’s Palace.

But the Dragon Turtle Tribe was different, with the millennia-old White Spirit, which she had personally experienced.

Nearly half of the Sealed Emperor’s Palace’s power couldn’t leave a mark on it, and instead suffered a cut to its spirit and soul.

To this day, no method of recovery had been found.

It was the first time she had truly been utterly defeated, completely and thoroughly!

“I am aware!” Emperor Luan released Empress Feng, reverted to his usual demeanor, and turned to look outside the Eternal Joy Palace—the sky was about to lighten.

He then turned back to Empress Feng, “I won’t see you off.

Leave quietly, try to bring as few people as possible.”

Empress Feng nodded, “Take care, Your Majesty!”

Emperor Luan smiled, “Today’s surprise attack by the Mystery Huang is actually a blessing in disguise.

With the Sealed Emperor Palace Array mostly destroyed, isn’t it normal to have some accidents?”

He laughed and shot out of the palace, his expression turning somber, his voice deep, “The Big Zong Order, begin.”

At the original location of the collapsed Grand Temple, a stooped old man nodded, bowed, and spoke, “Your Majesty, please move to the ancestral lands.”

The old ancestors had to be summoned from the ancestral lands!

Today’s surprise attack on the Sealed Emperor’s Palace was from a genuine external enemy.

Now that the Sealed Emperor’s Palace was full of leaks, and rumors were circulating that both Empress Feng and Emperor Luan had been injured, even the Divine Skills of the Sealed Emperor Lineage appeared to be affected.

It was time for one of the old ancestors to manifest and preside.

If it was an external enemy, not an internal Bloodline struggle for position, the old ancestors would show themselves.

“Let’s go!” Emperor Luan did not wish to say more.

“Prepare the carriage!” The old eunuch who was almost sealed in the wooden fish by Ci Fang called out in a sharp voice.

Two Dragon Beasts pulled the Vermilion Palanquin and rose into the air, with court attendants serving before and after.

The military array in front took the form of an Azure Dragon, spiraling to clear the way.

Behind them, the Dragon Turtle military array suppressed the dust.

The Sealed Emperor’s Palace no longer hid its contempt for the Mystery Huang World.

Previously, there had only been tigers clearing the path and elephants suppressing the dust.

The Big Zong Order bowed his head with a trace of worry.

Such humiliation would likely cause the two clans to come knocking at their door in an instant.

The old eunuch glanced at him, his mouth curling into a sneer.

Since His Majesty had acted thus, he must have been prepared.

Was there anything to fear?

The Military Division opened the way at the front, the royal procession in the center, followed by tens of thousands of imperial clansmen.

Although they did not understand, they did not ask questions.

The veneration formed for Emperor Luan over 110,000 years had ingrained itself in their bones.

It would not waver because of a single attack.

The Vermilion Palanquin traveled through the air as if on an inspection, but lighter than the annual inspections, lacking even the full display of ceremonial weapons.

The common people below were perplexed.

Today’s battle at the Sealed Emperor’s Palace was beyond the comprehension of low-level cultivators, let alone ordinary mortals.

But the collapsed imperial palace was clear for all to see.

Countless people wept.

Clenching their teeth, they cursed the traitors.

The Mystery Huang World could hardly wait for the Sealed Emperor Family to die out instantly.

But the Sealed Emperor Great World deeply adored Emperor Luan for his reign.

No need for anything else, Emperor Luan had put forth all his effort to make the Sealed Emperor Great World largely fair.

For those at the bottom, this was an immense grace.

Such a sovereign was hard to come by in a million years!

The Vermilion Palanquin descended from the Sealed Emperor’s Palace, heading northward through the sky without using the Flowing Light River, until it reached the icy and snowy land of the Sealed Emperor Great World’s Northland.

This was the legendary ancestral land of the Sealed Emperor Family.

It was unremarkable, with not even an altar present—completely desolate.

One could only rely on the stars for positioning.

The Palanquin landed, Emperor Luan said nothing, and the Big Zong Order stepped forward, bowed, and said, “Your Majesty, the old ancestors do not seek elaborate rituals.

You may ascend the altar and begin the summons directly.”

Not only did the old ancestors dislike pomp, but Emperor Luan himself had abolished most of the cumbersome ceremonies of the previous dynasty after his ascension.

Emperor Luan nodded, closed his eyes to rest, and began to slowly adjust his breath.

The Big Zong Order immediately directed the Clan Mansion to arrange the altar.

The altar was not grand—in fact, it was rather modest, almost like a local land temple.

Only the “prison” and “punishment” characters were written on the ritual flags.
