Evil Emperor's Wild Consort

At that moment, the woman who had been watching out for Qianbei Ye finally turned her gaze towards him. A cold and sharp light flashed across her chilly eyes.

A hand suddenly reached for Cang Ming without any warning. Cang Ming instantly felt like he was being torn apart by some kind of force and his soul was being dragged out of his body.

"No!" Cang Ming screamed in terror. He turned towards Gu Ruoyun and looked as if he had just seen a devil. His entire face was filled with horror as he said, "H-have you broken through to the Full Circle State? That's impossible! Why was there no indication that you've broken through to the Full Circle State?"

Everyone knows that the impact generated by a cultivator's breakthrough increases the further along they were in their cultivation journey. However, how could Gu Ruoyun have broken through to the Full Circle State without even making a sound?

Gu Ruoyun smiled nonchalantly, "What do you think?"

What you do think?

This reply confirmed Cang Ming's question.

Cang Ming began to tremble violently as his expression filled with even more terror. "So it's true that the Master of the Ancient Divine Pagoda is also the Master of this world. Have you really broken through to the Full Circle State through the Ancient Divine Pagoda? That's impossible! Let me go. Let me go this instant!"

Cang Ming's translucent soul struggled endlessly in Gu Ruoyun's grip. However, Gu Ruoyun did not pay any heed to his resistance and bundled his soul into a ball before throwing it at Qianbei Ye.

"He had belonged to you in the first place. Now, the item is back with its original Master. You better hurry up, sit down and have a breakthrough. Once you've broken through, we'll go home."

This battle has continued for more than half a month and was finally at an end. I'm sure that Mother and Father have been waiting anxiously. It's time for us to go back now.

Gu Ruoyun sighed emotionally at the thought of everything which had happened during the past half-a-month. She then turned her gaze towards Zixie...

"Little girl, my mission is finally complete."

Zixie smiled but his eyes were filled with a tinge of hurt. "During these few years, I've watched you grow step by step. I've also watched you grow from someone who had been oppressed to your current state. I'm honored."

"Zixie." Gu Ruoyun lowered her head and stared at the companion who had been by her side for such a long time. She smiled and said, "Thank you. If it had not been for you, I would not be where I am today."

"Little girl, even though I've completed my mission, can you allow me to still stay by your side?"

His purple eyes were filled with nervousness as if he was afraid that the woman would reject him.

Gu Ruoyun thought for a moment before she nodded, "Alright."

In the end, she still does not have the heart to let Zixie leave.

"Zixie, if you want to be restored to freedom one day, I will give you the freedom you want but you must let me know."

...

The Cloudy Wind Empire.

Grand Lord Hong Lian hugged the woman next to him tightly as they waited in the Imperial Palace. His cold and grim eyes were filled with anxiety as he said, "They've been battling for half a month. They must still be safe and sound. If anything had happened to them, Cang Ming's subordinates would have stormed the Imperial Palace by now. Yu'er, you must believe in our daughter."

Dongfang Yu nodded.

It has been more than half a month.

During the past half-a-month, they had never even taken one step out of this place. Their eyes had observed the faraway battle continuously.

However, half a month ago, the earth-shattering noises had suddenly disappeared. It was now so quiet that it was unnerving...

Suddenly, the man's voice cried out from her side with a sense of disbelief.

"Yu'er, look! Is that Yun'er?"

Yun'er?

Dongfang Yu's body trembled and she quickly followed Grand Lord Hong Lian's line of sight. She could not help but rub her eyes when she saw the figures who were flying towards them from a short distance away.
