Xu Qing calmly lowered his head and followed.

There were twenty-one Ruler Mountains in the West Devil Feather, far surpassing that of East Devil Feather.

Xu Qing could sense that the gazes of these Rulers only swept past him. Their focus was on the Empress.

This made Xu Qing feel almost no pressure.

He only needed to be a good follower.

However, he also sensed that the gazes of those Rulers were filled with hostility. Moreover, such a domineering intent was clearly filled with warning and contempt for this new Ruler of the East Demon Feather, Lu Lingzi.

This contempt naturally had a deeper motive, so it didn’t come from just the Rulers.

It also included the current Demon Feather Great Emperor.

The Empress’ visit was fruitless.

After the Empress expressed Her intentions, the Demon Feather Great Emperor’s Dao altar didn’t immediately send out a summons. Instead, a disciple of the Great Emperor, a middle-aged cultivator who was also a new Ruler, sent the decree to the Empress.

This decree only had one word.

“Wait!”

With that, this new Ruler looked at the Empress with scrutiny and coldly spoke.

“Lu Lingzi, back then, when we sparred, there was no victor. Now that you’ve also advanced, why don’t we fight again?!

As soon as he said this, thunder rumbled in the sky and a sense of oppression suddenly descended.

From the start to the end, the Empress’ expression didn’t change at all. She didn’t even glance at the disciple of the Demon Feather Great Emperor. Instead, She turned to look at Xu Qing and calmly spoke.

“Xue Chenzi.”

“Your humble servant is here!” Xu Qing immediately bowed.

“Go and spar with all the Soul Accumulation cultivators under the Rulers of the

West Devil Feather. Don’t sully the East Demon Feather’s name.”

As soon as these words were spoken, all the Rulers who were staring at this place instantly looked at Xu Qing. Even the Ruler who announced the Great Emperor’s decree shifted his gaze away from the Empress and looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed. He understood the meaning in the Empress’ words.

She was clearly asking him to show off.

However, divine authorities and authority were his main weapons. Hence, his greatest problem was that he would definitely be exposed if he made a move.

However, since the Empress had spoken like this, it was impossible for Her to not have considered this. Hence, Xu Qing didn’t hesitate at all. A murderous aura rose from his body as he accepted the order, replying with a deep voice.

“I obey the decree!”

With that, his body swayed and he headed straight for the distant horizon.

The Empress closed Her eyes and didn’t speak anymore.

As for Xu Qing, thoughts spun in his mind. On one hand, he guessed that the Empress had used a method to conceal his attacks. On the other hand, he recalled Xue Chenzi’s understanding of the West Devil Feather.

“Among the twenty-one Ruler Mountains of the West Devil Feather, the strongest is the second one, followed by the first, third, and seventeenth.

“The Empress asked me to spar. In that case, the most suitable target for the

first battle…”

Xu Qing looked toward the north.

That was the direction of the Seventeenth Ruler Mountain.

“It shall be there!”

“As for the way the Empress will disguise my attacks, there’s a high chance…

Xu Qing touched the jade slip the Empress had given him before.

He originally thought that this jade slip was only used to nourish his soul.

However, now it seemed that this item was something the Empress had specially prepared for him.

At the thought of this, Xu Qing no longer hesitated and headed straight for the Seventeenth Ruler Mountain.

He displayed extreme speed, leaving sonic booms in his trail. After fifteen minutes, the towering Seventeenth Ruler Mountain appeared in his eyes.

The instant he got close, Xu Qing’s voice was like thunder, exploding on the mountain.

“Xue Chenzi, subordinate of the Tenth Ruler of the East Demon Feather, challenges all the Soul Accumulation cultivators of the Seventeenth Ruler Mountain!”

Almost at the instant Xu Qing’s voice rang out, a cold snort rang out from the Seventeenth Ruler Mountain.

“Chen Fei, go and suppress this kid!”

All the Ruler of the West Devil Feather had heard the Empress’ words to Xu Qing earlier.

In their opinion, since Lu Lingzi didn’t fight and sent out a subordinate, then… after suppressing this subordinate, Lu Lingzi would have no excuse to refuse a fight.

Amidst the cold snort, a figure flew out of the mountain.

This was a middle-aged cultivator. He was tall and burly and gave off powerful cultivation fluctuations. He had seven great worlds flickering with dazzling light.

After he flew out, he paused in mid-air. He first bowed toward the mountain before turning to look at Xu Qing with a sharp gaze.

He headed straight for Xu Qing.

The seven great worlds circulated violently, forming a terrifying might. Xu Qing’s expression was calm as he lifted his right hand and pressed in the direction Chen Fei had come from. After that, he clenched his palm.

Immediately, the sound authority in his body erupted.

The sounds that rose in Chen Fei’s surroundings all transformed into killing intent that rolled back, forming a huge sphere. The sound waves from it were majestic and shook everyone.

Such a method caused Chen Fei’s expression to change and his mind to fluctuate. However, what he was seeing wasn’t sound power but countless astonishing blood seals.

Every seal exuded a dense stench of blood and contained extraordinary power. Moreover, when combined, it gave off a mysterious feeling.

This caused him to lose the initiative immediately.

At this critical moment, his seven great worlds flashed and he performed a series of hand seals with both hands. Seven different bizarre entity statues rose malevolently from the seven great worlds.

They materialized and rushed out of their worlds, rushing toward Xu Qing. Xu Qing was expressionless. The moment the seven bodies got close, he instantly disappeared and fused into the sound. When he reappeared, he was behind Chen Fei.

Two authorities in his eyes instantly dazzled.

He saw Chen Fei’s karma threads and agitated his seven emotions and six desires.

Using karma to lock his life and emotions to turn it into waves.

After that, the Profound Sun Immortal Light transformed into a sun and rose into the air in his sea of consciousness, forming endless light and heat. It instantly enveloped Chen Fei and ruthlessly suppressed him.

A rumbling sound rose into the sky. Chen Fei had lost the initiative due to the sound authority and was continuously forced into a passive state. At this moment, before he could completely unleash his abilities, he was heavily injured by the Profound Sun Immortal Light, and his body fell down heavily.

Xu Qing instantly chased after him and punched his chest, causing his injuries to become even more serious.

All of this took a long time to describe but in reality, it happened in the blink of an eye.

Almost at the instant Xu Qing displayed his divine authority and authority, the jade slip given by the Empress silently fused with him, perfectly concealing all his methods.

Hence, the sound authority displayed in this battle became a seal related to blood, the authority became a Dao art, and the immortal light sun became a secret technique.

The fact that the battle ended so quickly caused the hearts of the cultivators who were paying attention to this battle to tremble. There was a moment of silence.

Xu Qing recalled the Empress’ request. Hence, he looked down at Chen Fei.

“You’re too weak.”

As he spoke, he kicked Chen Fei’s body toward the Ruler Mountain.

After that, he calmly spoke.

“Which other Soul Accumulation wants to fight?”

When Chen Fei heard this, reluctance rose in his heart. He still had many methods he hadn’t used. From what he thought, his failure previously was clearly due to his negligence.

He wanted to say something, but as his body landed on the ground, the seriousness of his injuries caused him to spit out blood again before he could speak.

At the same time, a deep voice suddenly rang out from the Seventeenth Ruler Mountain.

“I originally didn’t want to bully the weak, but since you are taking the initiative to request a battle, then… this old man will suppress you.” As the voice spread, a terrifying aura that surpassed Chen Fei’s rose from the Seventeenth Ruler Mountain. The figure of an old man walked over from the void.

This old man had red hair and his entire body emitted a terrifying aura. The nine great worlds didn’t appear on his body but on his back. Under the contrast of these worlds, this old man gave off a feeling that he was infinitely close to being a god.

He walked toward Xu Qing step by step.

Nine Worlds Soul Accumulation!

An imperceptible glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes. He wasn’t confident that he could win against a Nine Worlds Soul Accumulation. Hence, as he looked at the cultivator walking over, Xu Qing shook his head.

“You’re also no match for me.”

“However, since you’ve said that you’re bullying the weak, I’ll stand here and let you attack three times. If you can injure me even a little, it will be considered your victory.”

After Xu Qing finished speaking, he landed on the ground and looked at the old man with his hands behind his back..
