His figure blurred as he turned into a cloud of green smoke and disappeared.
One year later.
At the border of Ximing City and Beiming City.
Su Yu returned to this place.
After a year of healing, the nine-colored energy in his body had been completely dissolved.
His cultivation had been restored.
"Shaohao, Emperor Xiaoyao." Su Yu stared at a jade box in his palm.
There were countless nine-colored energies lying quietly inside.
It was different from the nine-colored liquid that had been washed with water.
The energy Su Yu forced out was purer, without any impurities.
And the energy it contained was enormous.
"The ruler that was soaked in half a drop of the Emperor's blood exploded with power several times over. What would happen if I could digest the other half of the Emperor's blood?"
Su Yu had successfully obtained the other half of the Emperor's blood.
He needed to study it carefully.
Its power was too great. He could not miss it.
Speaking of the Emperor's blood, Su Yu could not help but think of the nine-tailed fox's complete body, which was still in his hands.
He did not know if he could extract the Emperor's blood from its body.
As he pondered, Ah Da, Ah Er, and Ah San appeared.
"Lord Zuo, you are finally here." Ah Da and the other two frowned.
They had not completed the mission given by the Waning Moon Queen at Beiming City.
"Lord, how should we report to her?" The three of them understood the Waning Moon Queen's character.
She was fair in rewards and punishments.
If they did not complete the mission, they would be severely punished.
"I'm already prepared." Su Yu took out a beautiful corpse.
This was, of course, a corpse created by One Thought to Become Real.
It could only last for about a day.
"Ah! Lord, you... "Ah Da said in shock.
Su Yu nodded. "I secretly completed the hunt in a year. I can report to the Queen now."
Hearing this, the three of them were overjoyed.
The only regret was that Zuo Wei had killed Yanran alone.
When it came to rewards, it was not their turn.
"You three, you have all contributed to our successful return," Su Yu said. "If the Queen asks, I will say that the three of us worked together to kill her. I hope you will not say anything."
The three of them were overjoyed.
"Thank you, Lord. Thank you for the promotion." The three of them were extremely grateful.
Su Yu was sharing the credit with them!
How could they not be grateful?
Not long after.
After many years, the group finally returned to Beiming City.
As soon as they returned, the Waning Moon Empress summoned them.
"The four of you are indeed capable subordinates of mine. Very well done!" The Waning Moon Empress simply checked Yan Ran's body and ordered people to take care of it.
His thoughts were obviously not on Yanran.
"You are in North Ming City. Do you know what happened?" The Waning Moon Empress frowned.
He did not know if he should be happy or worried.
In just a short two to three years, Northern Ming City had fallen from being the number one city in the south to becoming a wasteland.
Not only was Beiming City devastated, but the Great Emperor Hall was also destroyed twice.
The forces in the entire territory were being taken away by the unknown forces at an alarming rate.
Now, the overall strength of the Northern Bright City had fallen to a level similar to that of the Western Bright City.
The Waning Moon Empress didn't expect such a huge change.
A 'Da spoke in a low voice, "According to our understanding, Shaohao offended someone, and that's why he's in such a state."
"Alone?" The Waning Moon Empress took a deep breath.
What kind of person could turn Northern Ming City into such a mess?
If they could recruit such a person for their own use, why would they worry about not succeeding?
The Waning Moon Empress pondered, "The world is really unpredictable. The battle for the Time Master is about to begin, but Northern Ming City has suffered such a huge change."
"But this is a good thing."
She smiled, "It's not a good thing for Northern Ming City to be too strong or too weak. The current Northern Ming City is just right."
Her black dress fluttered, and her eyes regained their elegance.
The Waning Moon Empress was certain, "If I'm not wrong, the one who has been secretly recruiting people should be Eastern Ming City."
"Not only did they take advantage of Northern Ming City's internal strife to buy experts, but they also poached many forces from my Western Bright City."
She never thought it would be Southern Ming City.
In her eyes, Southern Ming City wasn't even worth mentioning.
Only the Mindful Emperor of Eastern Ming City was wise, calm, and good at forbearance.
Perhaps he was the only one who could do such a farsighted thing.
The Waning Moon Empress was excited, "Very good, the situation is clear. When the war begins, it will be the beginning of my ascension to the Time Master's throne!"
She only calmed down after a while.
"You've all done well. Ah Da, the three of you can go and receive your rewards. Zuo Wei, stay behind."
"Yes!"
The three of them left one after another, leaving only Su Yu and the Waning Moon Empress.
Her expression softened, and she threw herself into Su Yu's embrace. "Zuo Wei, I've made you suffer."
Su Yu shook his head. "It's okay, it's what I should do."
He thought to himself.
The relationship between the Waning Moon Empress and Zuo Wei was really extraordinary.
"All these years, you've been helping me spy beside the Star Rain Empress. We should have been happy together," the Waning Moon Empress said softly.
"Didn't I say that your business is my business? So, why should we separate ourselves?" Su Yu asked.
He was still guessing the relationship between the two of them.
"Do you remember when you went to kill Yanran? I said that when you came back, I would give you everything you want."
Su Yu certainly remembered.
He had come back for this.
He felt that the thing the Waning Moon Empress was talking about was not ordinary.
"What do you want to give me?" Su Yu smiled.
The Waning Moon Empress snorted. "You know the answer!"
Her finger drew circles on Su Yu's chest.
Su Yu's heart skipped a beat. Could the Waning Moon Empress be talking about herself?
It was difficult for him to accept having sex with such a woman.
"Let's go, I'll show you. I'm almost there." The Waning Moon Empress let go of her finger and pulled Su Yu to her bedroom.
She pointed at her bed.
A well-hidden space fluctuation appeared.
The two of them stepped into the fluctuation and were transported to an extremely dark place.
The place was bone-chilling, and the scene was like an underground altar.
In the center of the altar, there was a huge block of ice.
There was a figure frozen inside.
The figure had been dead for an unknown number of years, but the body was intact.
The strangest thing was that there was an ancient oil lamp on top of the figure's head.
The oil lamp was extinguished, and it was constantly spinning.
Seeing the oil lamp, Su Yu's pupils shrank.
"The Holy Mortal Body?" he exclaimed in surprise.
The Waning Moon Empress smiled faintly. "Haha, you've finally gotten your wish. Have you seen it?"
It turned out that what Zuo Wei wanted to know was the Waning Moon Empress's biggest secret.
"Back then, in the territory I ruled, I dug up a first-grade Nine Serenities Crystal and cut out a dead Holy Mortal Body," the Waning Moon Empress recalled.
After learning of the situation, the Waning Moon Empress took the body of the Holy Mortal Body away.
She killed everyone who knew about it.
