CHAPTER 530: CHAPTER 530: SHOWDOWN WITH THE FUTURE EMPRESS! (PLEASE FOLLOW)

Xiao Ye almost forgot that the Bronze Hall still had a master-protection function, when the owner suffered a fatal injury, it would automatically shield them.

After the Template Adjuster upgraded it, the Bronze Hall’s level reached the Emperor Realm, but at which layer of the Emperor Realm, he didn’t know.

Future Gu Qingcheng’s body went limp and collapsed onto Xiao Ye’s lap, a look of extreme exhaustion spreading across her pretty face.

Her realm was also dropping rapidly, falling all the way to Great Perfection of the Saint Realm.

"Honey, this Bronze Hall of yours, it doesn’t look simple,"

"In the universe, the Emperor Realm is split into three stages,"

"First is Surface Tier, where you control a Rule Origin of a planet, your power capable of causing large-scale destruction to planetary surfaces,"

"Second is Planet Level, also called Celestial Level. Here, you merge with the Rule Origin of a planet, taking its Rule Origin as your own, becoming the embodiment of rules—a single strike could smash apart some asteroids. As long as the Rule Origin doesn’t perish, your body is undying and immortal,"

"Third, Star System Level, where your own planet’s Rule Origin becomes the core, establishing connections to all similar Rule Origins within a star system. You upgrade your planet into a super grand world, master every Rule Origin of the same type in the star system, and your power can easily destroy any constant star, planet, black hole, super planet—even a small star system,"

"Above the Emperor Realm is the Star Domain level, but that’s so far off, I won’t bother describing it,"

"This Bronze Hall is at least Planet Level—a Celestial Level Emperor Weapon!"

"Just now, my realm rose to Great Perfection of Surface Tier, first stage of Emperor Realm, so I could only test and sense this much,"

Xiao Ye understood suddenly. *So, in the universe, the Emperor Realm was itself divided into three stages.*

"System, what exactly is the Bronze Hall’s grade among Emperor Weapons?" he asked in his mind,

[Ding, the Bronze Hall is a fully perfected Star System Level Emperor Weapon,]

"!" A look of shock flashed in Xiao Ye’s eyes.

Star System Level, Great Perfection? That was the third stage, full completion, of the Emperor Realm!

The Bronze Hall could forcibly capture every Secret Realm, micro-world, or living being a stage below itself, anything that existed in the universe.

Since it was Star System Level, that meant it could forcibly grab anything that existed—conceptually—at Celestial Level and below, whether life or world, even planets.

If used as a turtle shell for defense, it could also withstand attacks from Great Powers of the third-stage, Star System Level Emperor Realm.

"Honey, kiss me, I want you!"

Future Gu Qingcheng felt her soul body was terribly worn out; she wanted to hurry up and get it on with Xiao Ye, then get back to the Sea of Spirit to rest.

Xiao Ye was about to take out the Space-Time Hall when he froze, "Sister Qingcheng, here?"

Future Gu Qingcheng yanked down his pants, her beautiful eyes burning as she said, "Yeah, right here!"

She tossed out a pavilion and said, "Honey, carry me inside,"

Xiao Ye instantly picked her up and carried her in, and soon inside the pavilion, a beautiful melody played, their rhythm rising and falling together.

By the altar, Iceberg Dean Yunxi blushed prettily.

Jiang Xue’an’s cheeks were a little flushed with excitement; she balled her fists, cheering, "Mistress, go for it! We’re all rooting for you,"

"Master, you too, go, we’re applauding for you!"

Yunxi, "???"

She stared at the excited Jiang Xue’an in disbelief, muttering,

"Did this little maid get corrupted from a young age? Every time she sees Master doing this, she gets so excited,"

"Cheering them on?"

*Yunxi thought about her own duel with Xiao Ye. If Jiang Xue’an started cheering from outside, she figured she’d be so mortified she’d want to use her toes to dig a hole big enough for three rooms and a hall just to hide in it.*

But right then, Future Gu Qingcheng’s voice came from inside the pavilion, "Little maid, shout louder! Did you not eat today?"

Yunxi’s eyes went wide, her mouth twitching, "Qingcheng, you are way too bold—I can’t learn that,"

Jiang Xue’an only got more fired up after hearing that and started shouting even louder.

"Mistress, go for it!" "Master, go for it!"

She even looked at Yunxi and said, "Sister Yunxi, Master and Mistress are fighting a great battle atop the pavilion! This kind of epic battle—aren’t you going to cheer them on as well?"

Yunxi’s face went awkwardly pink; she waved her hand, embarrassed, "You can cheer, I’m good, I really just can’t,"

"But seriously, if I’m ever in a fight like that, you really don’t need to cheer me on. That’s not my style."

Jiang Xue’an nodded and shouted, "Master, go Mistress, go!"

Inside the Sea of Spirit, the Future Empress’s voice sounded, "Xiaogu, pay close attention, learn a few more skills from me. You’ll need these later,"

Gu Qingcheng’s face was beet red, but her eyes stayed locked on, "Okay, I’ll do my best,"

"I’ll try this with my hubby someday,"

*She couldn’t believe it—so this was possible too!*

*Old Gu really did have a wealth of knowledge, though from the look of it, he was kind of clumsy in practice; seemed like he was experimenting with these moves for the first time.*

*Then again, after Old Gu had spent a hundred years alone, it made sense,*

Three hours later,

Future Gu Qingcheng’s soul body returned to the Sea of Spirit,

The control of the Hang City Empress’s body returned to Gu Qingcheng of the current time period.

*She cursed silently, "Old Gu, you’re out of control! My whole body’s jelly—I can’t even walk. Just raising my arm takes everything I’ve got,"*

Future Gu Qingcheng lounged on the Treasure of Space-Time, smiling with her eyes half-closed, "No, there’s one spot that’s not soft; your mouth is pretty tough right now,"

Gu Qingcheng: "..."

*She rolled her eyes; her body slipped into slumber, though her mind stayed perfectly clear,*

*Fat lot of good getting control back did—she couldn’t move at all, looked like she’d have to lie there all day!*

Xiao Ye used his Wood Element Control to keep his cells bursting with energy. After dressing, he stepped out of the pavilion, though he was still a little mentally drained.

Jiang Xue’an peeked behind him, "Where’s Mistress?"

Xiao Ye grinned, "I beat her. She’s resting now,"

"Alright, little maid, Sister Yunxi, let’s go—we’re heading home to Hang City! I’ve already got the Space-Time Hall,"

Yunxi’s pretty eyes lit up. *So fast? Awesome.*

The three of them left the Bronze Hall and then put it away.

Jiang Xue’an transformed into a Starry Sky Giant Beast, carrying Xiao Ye and Yunxi into the sky as they sped towards the Mortal Realm.

At the same time, on the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy, the Empress Space Divine Spirit who was holding the rear lines trembled violently, her explosive human body’s aura weakening significantly.

Her pupils contracted, *her heart rocked by an earthquake,*

"My true body has cut off contact with me!"

"Shit, something’s happened on Blue Star!"

Her fair, authoritative face twisted with fury; her beautiful eyes flashed with killing intent, her whole body emanating an aura like piles of white bones and countless corpses, the bitter resentment of infinite Emperor Realm kings howling out.

"All soldiers, hear me, from this moment, a one-year ceasefire,"

Up front, countless beasts and human warriors roared their response, "Yes, ma’am!"

The Space Empress stepped barefoot into the void, raised her arm, and cast a Super-Space-Time Teleportation Array, walking on her pale feet within it.

"I want to see which dumbass on Blue Star had the balls to lay a hand on my true body!" a sneer echoed from within,

Whoosh, the Super-Space-Time Teleportation Array instantly vanished.

On Blue Star, atop the head of the Starry Sky Giant Beast, Xiao Ye sneezed, rubbed his nose, puzzled, "Which Beast Girl is cursing me this time? I’m definitely going to fuck her hard when I get back!"

"Let her curse me!"

"Hmm, probably Ziran, or maybe Si Yao!"

"With the Space-Time Hall in my hands, it’s time for these Beast Girls to experience what a realm surge really feels like,"
