In Ye Xueshang's life, she had seen too many geniuses and met too many experts.
These so-called geniuses and experts, without exception, had all been defeated by her. They had been enslaved, oppressed, and even tortured by her.
The only person who could make Ye Xueshang feel fear, and even her hair stand on end, was only one person.
This person was not very talented, and his strength was as weak as an ant. However, it was this person who not only destroyed Ye Xueshang's thousand years of hegemony, but also sent her to the gates of hell!
That's right, this person was not anyone else, but Chu Xingyun.
At that time, Chu Xingyun was only in the Yin-Yang Realm. Compared to Ye Xueshang, who was half a step away from the Emperor's strength with the help of the array, he was not even an ant.
However, Chu Xingyun had used a series of schemes, and with his ant-like strength, he had forcibly killed her.
Even if Ye Xueshang used all of her tricks and even her last trump card, it was still useless. No matter how many tricks she had, Chu Xing Yun was able to neutralize them one by one, and kill her.
At this moment, although Ye Xueshang was already dead, she could not be more dead, and she was completely cold.
However, even death could not erase her fear of Chu Xingyun.
This fear did not originate from Chu Xingyun's strength. Instead, it originated from his flawless schemes.
At the moment of her death, Ye Xueshang thought of many things.
Before death, people would enter a state of terminal lucidity. In that state, it could be said that a thousand years passed in an instant.
At the moment of her death, Ye Xueshang looked back on her life. She wanted to understand how she had been defeated.
Before death, Ye Xueshang had to understand why Chu Xingyun, who was in the Yin-Yang Realm, could do it in three years.
She, the Martial Emperor, had spent three thousand years, but still could not achieve it.
That moment was very short. For others, it was just a blink of an eye.
However, to Ye Xueshang, time seemed to have stopped in that instant. It was so long that she could comprehend her entire life and make a final conclusion.
The reason why Ye Xueshang had lost to Chu Xingyun was not because of her strength, but because of her intelligence.
In Ye Xueshang's life, she had placed too much emphasis on martial strength, on the so-called talent and potential, and had neglected the greatness of wisdom.
If she had a wise strategist by her side, Ye Xueshang would not have lost to Chu Xingyun.
Even the lowest ranked tactician understood that if you don't remove the roots when you cut the weeds, they'll grow again when the spring breeze blows!
If Ye Xueshang had a slightly better strategist by her side, and she was willing to listen to his advice, then Chu Xingyun wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.
After retrieving Ye Xueshang's memories, Shui Liu Xiang had also reconsidered and organized them. In her opinion, what had defeated Ye Xueshang was not Chu Xingyun, but her own arrogance.
If she had been a little more careful, Chu Xingyun would have been completely defeated. It would have been impossible for him to cause any trouble.
After having the strength of an Emperor, Shui Liu Xiang's confidence had reached the limit. She no longer worshipped and admired Chu Xingyun like before, so … she did not think that Chu Xingyun was that great.
In Shui Liu Xiang's opinion, rather than saying that Chu Xingyun was great, it was better to say that Ye Xueshang was too arrogant. If she had been a little more careful, she wouldn't have been killed by a Yin-Yang Realm rookie.
Shui Liu Xiang maintained this attitude for a long time. In her opinion, she and Chu Xingyun were not on the same level. With her current strength, she could definitely kill Chu Xingyun.
Shui Liu Xiang originally believed in her own judgment, until one day, she had a dream.
In the dream … Shui Liu Xiang returned to the Jiuhan Temple again, and she became Ye Xueshang!
What surprised Shui Liu Xiang the most was that not only did she become Ye Xueshang, but in the dream, Chu Xingyun came to kill her and save her wife.
In the dream, Chu Xingyun was extremely powerful. She was careless, and Chu Xingyun's Ancient Ghostly Eyes first, which reduced her strength by 30%. Then Chu Xingyun used the Black Hole, unsealed the Manifestation of the Universe, and teleported to her side, killing her on the spot.
That dream was so terrifying that even though she woke up, Shui Liu Xiang was still immersed in fear, sweating profusely and gasping for breath.
Sitting on the bed, Shui Liu Xiang did not sleep for the whole night, nor did she do anything.
During the night, Shui Liu Xiang thought a lot, and the conclusion she reached in the end made her very desperate.
That was right. She was a Martial Emperor, and she had the combat strength of the Emperor. However, when she really faced Chu Xingyun, she had no chance of winning at all. There was no other possibility other than being killed in a second.
When Chu Xingyun unsealed the Manifestation of the Universe and used the Black Hole, everything would be devoured by the Black Hole. In that state, Chu Xingyun was immune to all control.
With the Instantaneous Steps, he could appear next to Shui Liu Xiang at any time, and his Black Hole was indestructible.
Although Shui Liu Xiang had the Bloodline Power and could form an ice armor to defend herself, in front of the Black Hole, the ice armor was completely useless. The Black Hole could even break an Imperial Weapon easily, so how could it be afraid of her ice armor?
No matter how strong her ice armor was, how many swords could it take from Chu Xingyun?
Not to mention the current Chu Xingyun, even if Ye Xueshang was replaced by Shui Liu Xiang today, the winner of the battle at the Jiuhan Temple would still be Chu Xingyun. There would be no exceptions.
In fact, if Shui Liu Xiang was there that day, she would have been defeated even faster and more miserably.
At the last moment, Chu Xingyun released the Demonic Spider. Ye Xueshang, who had cultivated her mind and soul for more than 3,000 years, could not resist it. If it were the current Shui Liu Xiang, she would have been killed instantly.
Since that dream, Shui Liu Xiang's arrogance had completely disappeared, because she clearly realized that even now, she could not defeat Chu Xingyun.
What's more, almost three years had passed, and Chu Xingyun had reached the Nirvana Realm. His strength had increased exponentially.
Fortunately, this devil-like man was infatuated with her and would never harm her. Therefore, Shui Liu Xiang was not worried.
However, because of this, Shui Liu Xiang realized how important a Monarch Weapon, especially an Innate Monarch Weapon, was.
After that dream, Shui Liu Xiang finally calmed down her restless heart.
After carefully summarizing Ye Xueshang's life, she finally came to a conclusion.
It was easy to get a thousand soldiers, but hard to find a general.
It was easy to get a thousand generals, but hard to find a general.
It was easy to get a thousand generals, but hard to find a plan.
With a valiant general, a powerful army could be trained.
A general could protect the country and its people, and be undefeated.
However, war was not about soldiers, generals, and even more so, it was not about marshals.
Even if they had invincible generals and wise marshals by their side, they would at most be bandits. They would not even be able to find a base of operations.
In fact, a bandit leader was equivalent to a general, and his subordinates were generals. Ordinary bandits were naturally equivalent to soldiers.
Without a top strategist, bandits would always be bandits.
