Chapter 106: Who Is the Mysterious Person?

On the Ascending Immortal Lake.

The Empress who was in her imperial robes furrowed her eyebrows slightly, her face turning somewhat serious.

The Human Emperor Sword in her hand was filled with starlight but remained held across her chest, not swung.

Because the enemy she was supposed to strike was no longer in front of her.

Just as she raised the Human Emperor Sword, preparing to gather the power of the sun, moon, and stars, something unexpected happened.

The small pavilion in the middle of the lake shattered, and the stone tablet engraved with the characters "Ascending Immortal" was covered in cracks, turning into dust after a light breeze.

Immediately after that, a beam of light shot up into the sky, turning the night into day.

The Empress knew what this meant.

The barrier had been broken, and the Demon Empress was freed from her suppression in the Ascending Immortal Lake.

The former master of the demons, with her peak Tribulation Crossing cultivation, finally broke free from the suppression of the Ascending Immortal Lake.

Not only did she realize this, but any cultivator present with a bit of insight could guess the same possibility.

The Nascent Soul-stage ape demon, whose body was now fully visible, laughed heartily and punched out twice to force away the nearby cultivators. Then, it took two steps back.

The explosion of its demon form shocked all the cultivators present.

Following that, the strange light lit up on all the other demons present. In just an instant, their figures vanished, and no one knew where they had gone.

Even the two Nascent Soul-stage cultivators from the Immortal Nation couldn't react in time.

Indeed, there was now an additional Nascent Soul cultivator in the Immortal Nation.

Just as Luo Wusheng had speculated, the Empress had delayed her arrival to keep these demon clans in Royal City. Presumably, when she swung her sword, she would use the power of the sun, moon, and stars to suppress the entire area, cutting off the demons' escape route.

Following that, the two Nascent Soul cultivators and a large group of Nascent Soul-stage guards would simultaneously make their move, more than enough to suppress all of these demons.

But as they say, accidents happen suddenly and irrationally.

Watching the pillar of light slowly dissipate, the Immortal Nation cultivators surrounding the Ascending Immortal Lake seemed unsure of what to do.

"There's no aura at the bottom of the lake; the Demon Empress has completely broken free from the suppression."

The white-haired old Daoist, who had been entangled with the ape demon earlier, appeared next to the Empress in an instant, a hint of disappointment in his green eyes. "The human luck that was suppressed is also gone. In that case"

"It doesn't matter," the Empress replied indifferently.

She knew what the Nascent Soul cultivator from the Daoist sect was sighing about.

The human luck suppressed by the Demon Empress was something the previous Immortal Emperor had planned to refine and ascend to a higher level. It was a tremendous benefit to an emperor's body, just as it was to her current body as the Empress.

If she could refine this human luck, her emperor's body would be able to ascend to Nascent Soul stage at the fastest speed.

However, she didn't care too much about this.

(Who was the new powerful demon that sneaked into the lake? How could they silently enter the barrier and break it in such a short time)

Or was there someone else helping the demons?

But to achieve something like this, they should be at least a Grandmaster at the peak of Nascent Soul stage, right?

Indeed, these demons must have some special means to dare to break the suppression and seal. If not for the unexpected help from the demon sect's Holy Saint tonight, the Immortal Nation might not have had the chance to stop them at all

The demons who helped the Demon Empress escape must be taken seriously in the future.

The Empress closed her phoenix eyes slightly, and the starlight on the Human Emperor Sword in her hand gradually faded.

Hmm?

She felt that the power of the sun, moon, and stars she had called upon this time was slightly stronger than before Was it just an illusion? Or were the powers of the stars and the moon really more abundant than usual tonight?

She didn't pay much attention to such details at the moment.

Now was not the time to be concerned about such trivial matters.

After putting away the Human Emperor Sword, the Empress looked over the Ascending Immortal Lake. The powerful cultivators from the Immortal Nation were all silent, and the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

Was the Demon Empress breaking free a blessing or a curse?

At least these cultivators recognized that if they were inexplicably sealed and suppressed for several years by someone claiming to ascend to a higher realm in one step, they would definitely not bear no grudge.

Those who could achieve this would probably become Buddhist cultivators.

"Perhaps the Demon Empress breaking free is not necessarily a bad thing Now that the demons have a new leader, there might be some internal disputes between the newly freed Demon Empress and that leader" muttered a Nascent Soul cultivator.

But no one responded.

The fact that a powerful veteran Nascent Soul cultivator might become an enemy of the Immortal Nation made it difficult for them to be optimistic.

As the Empress watched this scene, she couldn't help but sigh softly.

If the previous Immortal Emperor, who was invincible at the peak of Nascent Soul stage, was still in power, the situation would probably not be like this.

No matter how outstanding her talents were, she was still only at the early stage of Nascent Soul cultivation.

But since things had come to this point, as the ruler of a country, she couldn't just sit idle.

(Hmm After breaking free from suppression, the Demon Empress will probably need some time to recover her cultivation)

(Compared to her, the new demon leader who clearly has plans for the Immortal Nation needs more attention.)

(Thankfully, tonight's events also showed that the new demon leader and the Demon Empress don't share the same interests. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy to eliminate the demons tonight)

Thinking of eliminating the demons, another figure appeared in the Empress's mind.

The Holy Saint of the Demon Sect.

He provided vast energy from sentient beings and the power of mountains and rivers to help her eliminate the demons. He also intercepted the escaping goat demon afterwards

That man is truly a peerless genius among this generation of cultivators, whose talents even surpassed her own slightly.

If it weren't for the events with the Demon Empress breaking free tonight, the young man who had just taken the spotlight would probably be the center of discussion.

The Empress couldn't help but wonder about the identity of the mysterious person who rescued the Demon Empress

Shaking her head gently, she realized that after resolving tonight's events, she needed to meet the Holy Saint of the Demon Sect properly with her identity as the Empress.

At this moment, on a formation platform.

Figures surrounded by mysterious light emerged from the platform.

The first to appear was a slightly thin long-armed ape demon. He stood up and his originally crimson eyes turned green.

"Haha, wonderful! Wonderful!"

Excitement shone in his eyes.

Similarly, various other powerful demons appeared from the light.

Among them, a small group remained in their complete demon forms like the ape demon, while the majority appeared in humanoid form, retaining some features characteristic of demons, such as wings, antlers, scales, cat ears

At this moment, almost all the demons present were filled with excitement.

They were not excited about anything else; it was just that their plan had succeeded, and they had successfully lifted the seal on the Demon Empress!

However, among them, there was a young girl dressed in light green attire, appearing no different from a human. She seemed out of place and absent-minded compared to the jubilant crowd around her.

With a vacant look in her eyes, she watched the ecstatic demons on the formation platform.

The Demon Empress has already broken free from the suppression?

But I didn't even see the Master of the Tower of Heavenly Mechanics, who was supposed to help me, at all!

Didn't we agree that I would release the seal on the Demon Empress with the help of the tower master?

If I didn't do it then who rescued the Demon Empress?

Is there something wrong here?
