Everything Ye Mo said were engraved onto Qi Ying’s heart. At this instance, she no longer viewed him as a kid. His confidence gave her a brief moment of joy and hope, yet the hope faded immediately.

“Ye Mo, you have never left Limestone City, so you don’t know how large the world is. There are countless geniuses of your age, and many have reached the Energy Shaping Realm. With your current practice, you may become a leader or a king in Limestone City. But once you leave Limestone City, you will only realize there are countless talented people in this world, among which you are the most insignificant one,” Qi Ying said faintly, waiting to crush his hope while it was still early.

“After observing your skills, I am able to tell there are many more talented persons than I originally thought in this world. They will, however, bec my stepping stones, and I am going to make you my wife. My dad lost my mother, and I will definitely not repeat his mistake,” Ye Mo said stubbornly.

Staring at Ye Mo’s stubborn expression, Qi Ying suddenly sneered, “Making me your wife in order to fulfil your desire to possess? You are merely one of those possessive men.”

“What’s the matter? Do you have nothing to say now? Moreover, do you even know who I am? I am an Empress, the future wife of the Emperor of Tianwu Kingdom. In the future, my status will be second only to that of the Emperor. With my noble status, my family will become prosperous again and turn into the First Family in Tianwu Kingdom. Are you going to steal the wife from the Emperor? Are you capable of turning the Qi Clan into the First Family in Tianwu Kingdom?”

“An Empress?” Ye Mo said, shocked.

It had been several thousand years since the founding of the Tianwu Kingdom. But in its long history, there had only been one Empress, the wife of the founding Emperor Lee the Great.

A woman could not become an Empress simply by marrying the Emperor. If that was the case, throughout thousands of years of history, there would not have been only one Empress.

Once becoming the Emperor of Tianwu Kingdom, he would obtain the protection byof the Spirit Supreme. As long as the Spirit Supreme keeps burning, the Emperor stays intact. Every emperor had the Spirit Supreme. Otherwise he could not have become an Emperor in the first place. Meanwhile, in order to become an Empress, one had to gain the protection of the Spirit Majestic, which supported the Spirit Supreme, so the kingdom could last forever and stay intact as a formidable country.

A year ago, Tianwu Kingdom organized a grand ceremony. Every family had to hold a large feast in order to celebrate the Emperor for successfully finding an Empress.

Four years later, the Emperor would officially marry the Empress, symbolizing the prosperity of the country. If Ye Mo competed for Qi Ying, it would be an act against the whole kingdom.

Moreover, Ye Mo had just had an affair with the Emperor’s wife!

Ye Mo calmed down and said, “So you are the Empress that I have been constantly hearing about. Even though you are an Empress, I won’t give up on you. Three years later, when the Emperor officially marries you, during the wedding ceremony, I will take you away from him. By that time, I will become so strong that even the Emperor will tremble.”

Taking the Empress away from the Emperor during the wedding ceremony? Anybody who heard this would find it ridiculous. The Emperor is the ruler of Tianwu Kingdom who had unimaginable great strength and was protected by the Spirit Supreme. As long as the Spirit Supreme stayed intact, the Emperor would never die.

“Then I sincerely wish you can make such big progress one day. But I still have a word of advice for you. No matter how much a genius progresses in his training, his effort is futile as long as he doesn’t mature. If you are serious about marrying me in the future, being patient is what you have to learn now.”

A pair of black butterfly wings spread open behind Qi Ying. Her wings fluttered, like the wings of a fairy, and Qi Ying flew into the sky, leaving only an ethereal voice which echoed in Ye Mo’s head.

Ye Mo would remember Qi Ying’s advice so he could someday become a mature martial artist. Once he fully understood what was going in Tianwu Kingdom, he would give up the fantasy.

“She really did not have any faith in me, did she?” Staring at the back of the butterfly wings, Ye Mo shook his head.

“Brother Ye Mo, Ling Er has faith in you. Even though the Emperor is protected by the Spirit Supreme, he is still a mortal. Since you now have a god-like power like the Rising Dragon Pillar, it is not totally impossible to beat the Emperor.” Ling Er sat on the magic seal, swinging her legs.

“Actually, what is the Spirit Supreme?” Ye Mo asked.

“The Spirit Supreme is also a form of power. Once a man becomes an Emperor, he will be worshipped by his people. Their worship will condense into the Spirit Supreme, gathering the beliefs of millions of people. The reason that the Emperor can stay alive as long as the Spirit Supreme stays intact is the fact that the Emperor is the ruler of this kingdom, who is supposed to be protected. As long as there are people worshipping the Emperor, the Emperor will not exhaust or die,” Ling Er explained.

The Emperor was supposed to be a supreme being who was worshipped by millions. Coupled with the protection of the Spirit Supreme, in Tianwu Kingdom, he could be considered an immortal.

“Does that mean if I want to kill him, I have to slaughter everyone in Tianwu Kingdom?” Ye Mo was surprised.

The Spirit Supreme was too overpowered. With such protection, even if the Emperor was merely a martial artist of Spirit Cultivating Realm, he could not be defeated. The Spirit Supreme guarded him as long as he was worshipped by the people of Tianwu Kingdom. Unless everyone in the kingdom was massacred, the Spirit Supreme would not vanish.

“Theoretically, this is true. But you don’t have to worry too much. The Spirit Supreme is no match against the Rising Dragon Pillar,” Ling Er said.

Ye Mo nodded. “It is quite late now. Now would be a good time go back.”

Ye Mo left the cave and walked towards the opening of the Spirit Valley.

“Now that 36 streams of my Dragon Power have awakened, I should be powerful enough to slay that Yin Poison Snake!” Ye Mo thought and hurried towards the location of that snake.

The Yin Poison Snake was still laying there lazily. Once it detected somebody approaching, it immediately woke up, hissed, and looked around cautiously.

“Today, my strength has skyrocketed. Now I am going to make you into wine for myself!”

In the Spirit Valley, Ye Mo could fully deploy his Dragon Force. 36 streams of Dragon Force rushed towards five of his mortal gates, causing his breath to skyrocket and the land beneath him to crumble. Ye Mo launched his fist towards the snake as if he were firing a cannon.

The Yin Poison Snake glimpsed his attack, and then swept its tail at Ye Mo.

The punch, like a cannonball, smashed right through the snake’s tail with the sound of bursting steel. The enormous force threw the snake right into the air. Yet the Yin Poison Snake still managed to escape like a lightning bolt, as if it had not been injured at all.

“The defence of the Yin Poison Snake is horrifyingly strong. How can he stay uninjured after taking a hit from my fist?”

A single punch from Ye Mo could easily kill a martial artist of the Spirit Cultivating Six Realm while the Yin Poison Snake was only a beast of the Spirit Cultivating Fifth Realm. Its strength was not great but its defence was far stronger.

“Brother Ye Mo, that earthworm absorbed the toxins from the Yin Poison Grass year after year. The toxins condensed on top of its skin, forming a strong defence. I guess its body also absorbed the toxins, turning the snake into an unbeatable beast. Unless you have a Spirit Weapon or are martial artist of the True Energy Realm, the beast cannot be slayed,” Ling Er said.
