Chapter 53 Yao Guang, have you had enough of living?
"Qingsu, can you bring the wondrous stone that gave birth to the Holy Spirit out of the Jade Pool?"
"cannot."
"Then how will you kill your master? Besides, I heard that the Queen Mother of the West personally sought out the Holy Lord of Yao Guang to keep you temporarily in the Immortal Pool. How will you leave? The entire Yao Pool is now under the cover of the [Western Emperor Tower]. Without the Queen Mother of the West's permission, not even a mosquito can fly out."
After stumbling a few steps following Yuan Qingsu's retreating figure, Hua Yunfei suddenly realized something, stopped, and frowned as he asked.
The scene of the ninety-nine dragons sweeping across the heavens and slaughtering the avatars of supreme beings was so impactful that it made him overlook many things and subconsciously follow Yuan Qingsu's lead. Now, upon reflection, he realized that this simple and crude plan was full of loopholes and had no feasibility whatsoever.
First, if you want to kill a powerful being, you must have the strength to kill an absolute powerhouse; otherwise, you're just courting death.
Second, even if you do have a trump card that can kill a powerful being, you must first be able to leave Yaochi.
Sensing the doubt and hesitation of the person behind her, Yuan Qingsu paused, stopping at the edge of the Immortal Pool, and said calmly, "I said, the complexity of the situation doesn't matter. We just need to deal with the person who caused this complexity."
"What do you mean?"
"Actually... I'm pretty good at dealing with women."
"Huh?!" Hua Yunfei was even more puzzled. Then, thinking of his friend's recent violent behavior, he muttered, "You, you don't actually intend to kill the Queen Mother of the West here, do you?"
"Yunfei, I am not a bloodthirsty person. In the end, I just want to solve the problem. Killing happens to be a relatively effective means at times. I will never harm the innocent unless necessary. Moreover, killing the Queen Mother in the Yaochi Holy Land would offend too many people."
"Then you'd better hurry up..." Hua Yunfei sighed helplessly.
Before the two, a stunningly beautiful figure in flowing robes appeared silently. Her face was radiant and imposing, and a touch of cinnabar between her brows added to her ethereal charm. Just standing there, she exuded a breathtaking majesty and nobility.
Queen Mother of the West!
She kept a close eye on this place, and even when battles broke out outside involving extreme weapons, her primary focus remained here.
After exchanging a glance with the Queen Mother of the West, Yuan Qingsu gestured for Hua Yunfei to leave first. Trusting his friend, Hua Yunfei did not hesitate, carrying his guqin and turning to leave.
The Queen Mother of the West didn't care. It was just a tiny insect. She smiled indifferently, her crystal-clear eyes, as bright as gemstones, shimmering as they fell on Yuan Qingsu's face. Her voice carried a hint of amusement: "So how are you going to deal with this woman, little Qingsu?"
"I will not take the strange stone with me, but I am leaving now. I will come back after I finish my business. Please allow me to leave, Queen Mother of the West."
"Is this what you mean by 'not bad at dealing with women'? You're trying to fool me with that kind of talk?"
"Is that not allowed?"
What do you think?
"All right."
Yuan Qingsu sighed. Sure enough, he was still not good with words and did not have the persuasive skills that a chosen one should have. He could not persuade the Queen Mother of the West with words alone.
But his ability to handle women is real, and this has nothing to do with his persuasive skills, but rather with the "gate".
The primordial heart, born from the Yin energy and the strongest Yang energy of the Holy Spirit, gently beats, communicating with another heart, or rather, the "mind," igniting the most primal emotions and desires.
This is a capability that is close to the conceptual level.
Yuan Qingsu walked towards the Queen Mother of the West step by step, and the distance between them kept closing. He could see his own figure growing bigger and bigger in her clear eyes until he was right next to her and could hear her breathing.
The Queen Mother of the West was tall and slender, as was the young man. When they approached face to face, their noses touched lightly, and they could feel each other's warm breath.
"What did you do?" she asked, her clear eyes glistening with a layer of watery light, like a clear summer spring.
Yuan Qingsu did not answer, but instead ordered, "Don't let the Western Emperor Tower lock onto me. Take me out."
"What kind of ability is this? Why can't I sense any curses or divine magic? Why am I..." west Wangmu pressed her smooth forehead against his, her fair hands gripping his arms, breathing heavily like a fish dying of thirst.
The delicate nostrils flared, and the suppressed sound from the throat was deep and drawn-out.
She was an extremely powerful being with boundless magical abilities, but right now she looked like an ordinary woman, or even less capable than some others.
"It's innate. Didn't you want to know how my bond with the Holy Spirit came about? This is how it came about. You now have two choices: let me go, or you want me to stay and continue?"
"You bastard, wait! You...you didn't do that to A-Yao...If you dare treat A-Yao like that, I'll kill you!"
"You can't kill me, at least not within the Jade Pool. You definitely can't kill me within the Holy Spirit's perception. Have I convinced you now?" Yuan Qingsu asked, while considerately supporting the Queen Mother of the West's soft waist, afraid that she might lose her balance.
He's really good at dealing with women.

"This is the main battlefield between the two Imperial Weapons. The Jiang family sacrificed themselves, and the Sun God Furnace was activated with a slight aura, clashing with the other Imperial Weapon!"
Ji Jisi of the Ji family spoke calmly. Above his head was an ancient mirror like a bright moon, and around him swirled surging chaotic energy. He descended upon the site of the tragedy, and the place where he landed was charred black, with a burning luster still shimmering. Wisps of extreme Dao energy flowed around him.
From a higher vantage point, one can see that, centered on this place, terrifying burning marks radiate outwards in all directions, as if a god had branded a pitch-black ancient sun totem onto this red earth.
It must have been left behind after the Sun God's Furnace unleashed its power.
Li Daoqing, who arrived at almost the same time as Ji Jisi, nodded slightly and said, "That's right. The other person who used the imperial weapon kept his power hidden and did not let his aura leak out, so it was impossible to accurately determine which family made the move."
"The news of the struggle for the torch in Yaochi has spread everywhere. The Immortal Holy Land, the Ancient Families, and the Immortal Dynasty of Zhongzhou all know about it. Jiang Yifei and Yuan Qingsu's performances have indeed been outstanding... This matter is really hard to say."
Ji Jisi sighed softly. After resolving his grievances with Yuan Qingsu, he left with his family's younger generation, carrying an imperial weapon. However, not long after they left, he sensed a tremendous fluctuation coming from the direction the Jiang family had left, so he rushed over to investigate.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
When they arrived, the entire Jiang family had already died.
Of the outstanding juniors brought out by the Jiang family this time, Jiang Yichen was killed on the spot by Yuan Qingsu. The body of the exceptionally talented Jiang Caixuan was also found on this battlefield, decapitated with a single blow, her eyes wide open in death. As for the remaining Jiang Yifei, his whereabouts are unknown, and he is likely in grave danger.
Besides severed limbs and broken bodies, the only thing left in this horrific place was...
Both the Ji family and the Yao Guang Holy Land groups turned their gazes to a furnace lying quietly amidst the ruins.
"The Solar Furnace!!"
In the Ji family's ranks, Ji Haoyue couldn't help but take a deep breath. As a powerful figure who had seized the Emperor Weapon from the Four Extremes in the original trajectory, this Emperor Weapon, which was now lying dormant here, was incredibly tempting and was his ideal type.
"Brother Ji, do you want it?" A gentle voice suddenly rang in Ji Haoyue's ears without any warning, causing him to pause and turn around in shock. He saw Yao Guang, surrounded by 108 divine lights, standing quietly behind him, greeting him with a smile.
For some reason, he felt that the current Yao Guang was somewhat different from what he had seen during the day, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was different.
It seems... a bit more ethereal.
"Ultimate weapons are the continuation of the Great Emperor's life. Each one is different, with its own mysteries, making people yearn for them." Ji Haoyue nodded, admitting it generously, as if it were no big deal.
"That's true, but precisely because of that, unless the Imperial Weapon is willing, no one can take it away. Even if it is taken away temporarily, the deities within it will gradually awaken and return to the hands of the Great Emperor's descendants. Brother Ji, as a descendant of an ancient family, haven't you read any ancient texts about this?"
"...I haven't watched it much." Ji Haoyue was taken aback.
At the same time, Li Daoqing, who was inspecting the battlefield with Ji Jisi, quietly fell behind by a step and turned to look at the black-robed man in the group, whispering in his mind, "Senior brother, you... have gone too far."
The man in black robes chuckled indifferently upon hearing this, "What, Junior Brother, are you going to expose me? Reveal that the Yao Guang Holy Land is hiding the Ruthless Emperor's legacy? That the Devouring Heaven Demon Art and the Undying Heaven Art are within the Yao Guang Holy Land? Oh, and the greatest miracle in fifty thousand years, the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron, was also forged by the Ruthless Emperor, and then incite the world to rise up against it? So that Yao Guang disciples will be hated by everyone from now on?"
"What you're doing now is no different from announcing it to the world! Do you really think everyone is a fool?" Li Daoqing said through gritted teeth.
"snort!"
The man in black robes sneered and said, "Let's put that aside for now. I ask you, is it because of your lineage that my disciple has become like this? Did you want to win over the demonic body and interfere with our plans? To make the Yao Guang inheritance shine again? Too bad, I've already decided to give up on this kid."
"What do you want to do?"
"I want him dead."
hum!
Just then, a burst of flames suddenly rose up, interrupting their conversation and drawing everyone's attention.
The Hengyu Divine Furnace, heavier than Mount Tai and unapproachable by anyone, moved. It soared into the sky, drawing a perfect arc in the night, and flew down towards a man and a woman. It then hovered above the head of a young man, gently resonating with an ancient bronze lamp lit on his shoulder, as if cheering and jumping for joy.
This is a reunion of old friends after hundreds of thousands of years.
The visitors were none other than the Queen Mother of the West and Yuan Qingsu.
Yao Guang was initially taken aback, not understanding why Yuan Qingsu was always able to do such shocking things. Then she smiled with relief and calmly met the gaze of the young man with the Hengyu Furnace on his head.
He knew that the other party probably knew what he was doing, and also felt that Yuan Qingsu was very scary now that he had obtained the Hengyu Furnace, but so what? He couldn't attack him now. As successors of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, they were both people who couldn't be exposed. Once exposed, they would become enemies of the whole world.
Once he has calmly refined Jiang Yifei's essence, the Jiang family will also retrieve the Sun God Furnace; they cannot allow their resources to leak out indefinitely.
The offensive and defensive positions of both sides will soon be reversed.
so......
"Yaoguang, have you had enough of living?" Yuan Qingsu looked down at him from afar and suddenly spoke, her calm voice carrying an absolute killing intent.
