The girl shifted her gaze to Empress Ziwei, ignoring Su Yu.
"To be precise, the gift is for you," the girl said with a smile.
Empress Ziwei's eyes were cold. "I didn't kill him. Of course, if you want to frame me, I'll admit it. What do you want? Say it!"
A powerful aura was released from Empress Ziwei's body.
She was fearless even though she was protected by a half-step Emperor.
Clap! Clap!
The girl clapped her hands, her eyes full of praise. "Your courage is commendable, and your strength is even rarer! I was wrong to not realize that you are such an expert. "
"So?" Empress Ziwei crossed her arms and said with hostility.
The girl smiled. "So, on behalf of Crown Prince Bei Wang Chen, I invite you to join him."
Hearing that, Blood Guanyin and Heartless Saber Emperor were shocked.
In the past ten days, they had fully understood Bei Wang Chen's status in the fief.
He was only one step away from being crowned as a king!
All the strong men crowned as kings were willing to follow Bei Wang Chen's orders, including the half-step Emperor!
However, Bei Wang Chen was very picky, and few people could catch his eye.
Hearing that Empress Ziwei was invited, they were shocked and envious, but also relieved.
Perhaps the shocking potential she displayed when she defeated Xuan Zhi had alarmed the legendary Bei Wang Chen, and he asked this butler to persuade her to join her.
Such an olive branch was something that many top overlords in the fief wished for.
However, Empress Ziwei's face was cold. She said lightly, "Then why did you kill Xuan Zhi?"
The girl smiled. "Bei Wang Chen heard that Xuan Zhi offended you, so he asked him to come and apologize."
Apologize with a head? Bei Wang Chen was so cold.
Empress Ziwei stared at the head and sneered. "If I offend someone more outstanding than me one day, will Bei Wang Chen send my head to him as an apology to please him? Bei Wang Chen invited me to join him in such a way. Did he not use his brain? "
The girl was slightly startled. After a while, she sighed. "You are a resident of an extraterrestrial civilization, so you don't understand Bei Wang Chen's status in the fief."
In other words, if it were someone else, they would have taken the same risk to join him.
Empress Ziwei sneered.
The young girl stared at her for a while, but didn't get an answer for a long time. She said, "So, you don't agree?"
"I agree." To everyone's surprise, Empress Ziwei agreed.
Blood Guanyin frowned. "Empress Ziwei, you want to abandon the Sea of Constellations civilization?"
Heartless Saber Monarch panicked and asked, "Are you not going to the Gate of the Great Void?"
The incident was so sudden that it truly caught everyone off guard.
The young girl gave the distorted figure a meaningful glance, and the other party immediately released a pressure that was close to that of an emperor, enveloping Blood Guanyin and Heartless Saber Monarch, rendering them speechless.
"Your choice won't be wrong." The girl smiled brightly.
Empress Ziwei said, "Wait, I have a request."
"Speak!" the young girl said.
"I'm going to the Great Void Gate," Empress Ziwei said firmly.
The young lady replied without hesitation, "No problem. Bei Wang Chen will send a group of people to the Great Void Sect in the near future. You can join them."
"Oh? Which way? "
"Cloud Ladder!" The young lady said slowly, "The bloodline of King Bei Xin knows many of the traps and dangers in the City Amongst the Clouds. It is far less dangerous than the Ghost Swamp."
Empress Ziwei looked at Su Yu and said, "I want all three of them to join us."
The young lady did not even look at Su Yu and the others, calmly saying, "This request cannot be fulfilled."
"Why?" Empress Ziwei frowned.
The young lady said, "Bei Wang Chen only accepts useful people. Useless people are not worthy of Bei Wang Chen's care, even if it is because of you."
She spoke bluntly, not caring that Su Yu and the others were present.
Both Blood Guanyin and Heartless Saber Monarch were furious.
This woman!
"Alright, I'm very happy to hear that." Empress Ziwei broke into a smile. Her cold face blossomed into a smile that stunned even the young lady.
She looked at Su Yu provocatively. "Our paths will be different from now on. Goodbye, comrades, hahaha …"
After saying this, she followed the young lady and gradually disappeared into the crowd, not even looking back.
The distorted figure looked at the three of them and said indifferently, "Go where you should go. She is no longer one of you."
One had been chosen by a King from a two-and-a-half-star civilization, while the other three remained the same.
Their fates were just as Empress Ziwei had said. Their paths would be different from now on.
With a swift movement, the distorted figure disappeared.
With the pressure lifted, Xue Guanyin trembled with anger. "That despicable ice woman betrayed us!"
The Merciless Saber Emperor had a sorrowful expression. "How are we going to explain this to the Sea of Constellations when we return? Empress Ziwei has betrayed us and joined the Great Yu Civilization! "
Su Yu, who had been silent all this while, said after a moment of silence, "Let's go."
Xue Guanyin said, "Aren't you angry?"
"Angry about what?" Su Yu asked. "Angry that we were abandoned like useless trash?"
"No!" Xue Guanyin's eyes were filled with anger. In fact, this was the real reason she was angry.
In the Sea of Constellations, she did not think much of it. Empress Ziwei was first, and she was second. Their treatment was not that different, and they were respected everywhere.
But in the Great Yu Civilization, the difference in treatment was immediately apparent.
She was still the pride of the heavens, while Xue Guanyin was merely a useless person in the eyes of the housekeeper of the Beixin Mansion!
The great humiliation caused her to feel agitated.
Su Yu calmly said, "The so-called pride of heaven is just a few steps ahead of the ordinary people. If you remain stubborn, you will be surpassed and left behind by the ordinary people sooner or later."
Xue Guanyin bit her lip, her eyes misty. "Thank you, Brother Su Yu. I understand."
She had always relied on the Natural Blood Lotus, and her vision had always been limited to the Sea of Constellations. She was satisfied with being second, and had never tried to surpass a higher level.
On the other hand, Empress Ziwei was proud and arrogant. She had always tried to climb to a higher level, with no end in sight.
If she wanted to surpass Empress Ziwei, she had to change.
"Let's go, the plan remains the same. Cross the Ghost Swamp!"
Xue Guanyin nodded, her eyes burning with a strong will to fight. "Yes, it is time to change! I must be stronger than the traitor Empress Ziwei! "
Su Yu was silent, thinking to himself, Traitor? I don't think so!
He looked up at the sky, and a giant Heavenly Eye gradually disappeared.
Under the Heavenly Eye, he could clearly see the peak overlords slowly retreating from all directions of the inn.
Ambush from all directions!
They were clearly not here to protect the young girl, but to surround her and prevent her from escaping.
If Empress Ziwei had not agreed, the outcome would not have been so peaceful.
If a genius could not be controlled by oneself, and could not fall into the hands of the enemy, the best solution was to eliminate her.
Su Yu and the others would naturally be silenced as well.
It was because she had sensed the ambush that the proud Empress Ziwei was willing to lower her head and be used by others.
Su Yu's impression of her changed greatly.
"Cloud Ladder, I hope her journey goes smoothly," Su Yu said to himself.
— —
High above the clouds.
The young girl stepped on a light cloud, flying side by side with Empress Ziwei toward Bei Wang Chen's mansion.
"Miss Ziwei, I believe your choice will make you feel blessed." At the mention of Bei Wang Chen, the young girl's face involuntarily revealed a proud expression.
Empress Ziwei pondered and did not respond.
The young girl smiled sweetly. "Are you still thinking about your companions? To be honest, they do not deserve to be your companions. You are born to be superior to them! "
She was very certain of this.
"Is that so?" Empress Ziwei said calmly. "You are very confident in yourself, including your judgment."
The young girl said calmly, "Am I wrong? At least I found a talent like you who has the potential to ascend to the Great Void Hidden Dragon. "
"Hehe …" Empress Ziwei laughed mockingly. "So, you actually know nothing!"
The young girl's face was calm, but she was a little displeased. "Miss Ziwei, if you have something to say, just say it."
Empress Ziwei smiled. "I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it if I say it."
"Say it!" The young girl frowned.
Empress Ziwei sneered. "What I want to say is, you really have no vision. Among the four of us, the most talented one is regarded as useless by you, yet you have to settle for me. How laughable, how pathetic!"
The young girl stared at Empress Ziwei. "Among the three of them, is there anyone stronger than you? The woman with the blood lotus under her feet, or the young man with the giant blade on his back? "
Empress Ziwei couldn't be bothered to reply.
The young girl said confidently, "If it's them, then it's a pity. The former is indeed not bad, but only not bad. As for the latter, forgive me for being blunt, he's just a good-for-nothing."
Empress Ziwei said leisurely, "You forgot about the last person."
"That slightly clever man?" The young girl said disapprovingly, "In my opinion, he's the most useless person among you. With the cultivation of a Bronze Overlord, doesn't he feel like he's a burden?"
Empress Ziwei couldn't help but laugh. "So, you know nothing! His battle prowess is ten times stronger than mine. "
The young girl's eyes widened. "Are you sure you're not talking nonsense? Your strength is equivalent to an early-stage Mystic Crystal Overlord. If he's ten times stronger than you, doesn't that mean he's comparable to a peak overlord? "
Shaking her head, the young lady said in disbelief, "I've seen demon-level geniuses before. Golden Overlord cultivators have the strength of pinnacle overlords. It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that you're too crazy."
"Hehe …" Empress Ziwei smiled and said nothing.
Her expression made the young girl skeptical. She pondered for a while and said, "Go back and invite him here."
The distorted figure beside her was about to move.
Empress Ziwei smiled proudly. "Little girl, do you think you're so smart? He doesn't know there are people lying in ambush everywhere. In his eyes, your little tricks are nothing more than the most inferior little tricks. Right now, he has already gone far away without leaving any traces. "
The young girl's expression turned slightly cold. She said coldly, "What are you waiting for?"
"Yes!" The distorted figure disappeared and soon returned. He said, "There are no traces left, including his aura."
It was as Empress Ziwei said!
The young girl was like a prideful lion that was provoked and finally became angry.
She glared at Empress Ziwei. "You didn't tell me earlier because you didn't sincerely join Bei Wang Chen's background?"
Empress Ziwei snorted disdainfully. "No one in my world can make me submit willingly. The Bei Wang Chen you speak of is the same."
"You!" The young girl was slightly angry. "Ignorant woman, don't insult Bei Wang Chen. His excellence is something you can only look up to!"
"Hehe …" Empress Ziwei sneered nonchalantly.
The young girl said coldly, "Fine, there are many people like you who don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. They used to look down on Bei Wang Chen, but after seeing him with their own eyes, they all wholeheartedly submitted to him. You are no exception!"
"Is that so?" Empress Ziwei smiled proudly.
