Fantasy: My Wife is the Empress, and Our Cute Kids Wreak Havoc in the Nine Provinces – Chapter 63

Chapter 63: The Sinister Power Restricting the Power of Fortune

“Big Sister, what does ‘exterminate nine clans’ mean?”

Chu Chen had already come to Chu Xin’s side, tilting his little head, and asked curiously.

Chu Xin thought for a moment, but still shook her little head: “I don’t know, Daddy never seemed to mention it.”

“Never mind.”

Chu Chen’s eyes darted around, and he whispered, “Big Sister, we have to team up, or we’ll get beaten up.”

“Okay!”

Chu Xin nodded, a rare solemn expression appearing on her delicate little face.

“Exterminate nine clans? I’m afraid the Empress is too busy to take care of herself now, she has no time to deal with the affairs of my Lánzhōu.”

At this moment, the steward rose into the air, level with Long Yufei, and said lightly, “As for Provincial Governor Long, you are not qualified to exterminate nine clans.”

Long Yufei snorted coldly, her tone icy, “This official may not have the authority to exterminate your nine clans, but I do have the authority to exterminate three clans. I will first exterminate your three clans, and after the imperial decree is issued, I will exterminate your nine clans.”

“Provincial Governor Long, just you and those two brats, do you think you can defeat the four of us, who are all Peak Martial Saints?”

The other three also rose into the air, splitting into three directions, forming four positions with the steward, completely surrounding Long Yufei, Chu Xin, and Chu Chen.

“Originally, we were thinking of having them stall you for half an hour, while we devoured the True Qi and blood of these one hundred thousand cultivators, and then blame it all on the ferocious beasts that killed the previous Provincial Governor, without anyone being the wiser.”

“But why did you have to come back? Now we have no choice but to kill you.”

The three of them spoke one after another, their tones filled with a strong killing intent.

As Long Yufei said, using the Nine Provinces Forbidden Formation would result in the extermination of nine clans.

Not only would they die themselves, but they would also cut off their bloodline and inheritance.

Therefore, they could not let Long Yufei leave this place alive, no matter what.

“Demon Saber Sect Master Fu Zhantian, Hegemon Sword Sect Master Qin Xinghai, Ten Thousand Beasts Sect Master Huo Feng, who would have thought that the leaders of the three great powers of Lánzhōu would degenerate into evil cultivators? If this were to get out, wouldn’t it make the other eight provinces laugh?” Long Yufei looked at the three and said coldly.

“If it allows us to break through, what’s wrong with being an evil cultivator?”

Fu Zhantian was a man with a feminine appearance, emitting a cold, blood-colored saber intent from his body, and his tone was equally cold, “It has been many years since Lánzhōu has produced a Martial Emperor. Three years ago, if we were Martial Emperors, how could we have been forced by that mysterious murderer to open the secret realm gate early? If we were Martial Emperors, how could the previous Provincial Governor have died at the hands of that mysterious expert? Since the normal path in Lánzhōu cannot lead to becoming an Emperor, why can’t we take a different path?”

“So, this is your reason for choosing to become evil cultivators? So this is your reason for devouring the True Qi and blood of one hundred thousand cultivators to cultivate?”

Long Yufei’s tone was icy, her beautiful eyes filled with endless anger.

Years ago, an evil cultivator used this Blood Devouring Soul Stealing Formation to devour ten thousand ordinary people, leaping from a mere Martial Ancestor to a Peak Martial Saint.

And those ten thousand ordinary people all turned into dried corpses.

Moreover, under the effect of this Blood Devouring Soul Stealing Formation, these dried corpses would turn into blood-sucking blood demons, controlled by the evil cultivator.

This was an extremely evil and terrifying formation, listed as a forbidden formation by the previous Emperor, and prohibited from use.

Once discovered, nine clans would be exterminated.

Today, these four were preparing to devour one hundred thousand cultivators, and the Yuan Power condensed from the True Qi and blood they obtained would naturally far exceed that of the past.

“If it can allow Lánzhōu to have another Martial Emperor, what’s the harm in sacrificing one hundred thousand people?”

Hegemon Sword Sect Master Qin Xinghai said coldly.

“That’s right! Not to mention one hundred thousand, even if it were a million, if it can allow Lánzhōu to produce a Martial Emperor, their deaths would be worthwhile.”

Ten Thousand Beasts Sect Master Huo Feng also said coldly.

“Hmph! Saying it so grandly, I think you’re just trying to satisfy your own selfish desires.” A trace of disgust appeared on Long Yufei’s delicate face.

“Why waste words with her, let’s do it.”

The steward snorted coldly, and with a grab in the air, a huge blood claw fell towards Long Yufei’s head.

An evil aura rippled out, causing the blood within people’s bodies to churn.

Long Yufei formed hand seals, and the Provincial Governor’s Seal spun, a wisp of the power of fortune dripped down, forming a protective barrier around her.

Bang!

The blood claw landed on the protective barrier, making a loud noise, and the powerful shockwaves rippled out, tearing through the void.

The powerful force was transmitted through the Provincial Governor’s Seal to Long Yufei, causing her face to pale slightly.

◈◈◈

At the same time, a powerful backlash surged within the steward’s body, causing his rapidly circulating True Qi to suddenly stagnate, and the unimpeded flow of his blood energy to churn.

But just then, a crimson light emerged from within his body, suppressing the backlash.

“You…”

Long Yufei was greatly surprised to see the steward’s calm expression.

The Provincial Governor’s Seal was forged by the three Martial Gods of the Nine Provinces Empire’s royal family at the time to strengthen their control over the Nine Provinces.

Anyone who attacked the person recognized as master by the Provincial Governor’s Seal would be met with the backlash of the power of fortune.

But this steward seemed to have not suffered much of a backlash.

The steward ignored Long Yufei and shouted to the other three: “I will restrict her power of fortune, you all attack together.”

“Alright!”

The three responded in unison, each unleashing their strongest attacks.

A sea of blood surged from within the steward’s body, floating towards the Provincial Governor’s Seal and enveloping it. The powerful corrosive force actually penetrated the fortune light barrier.

This sea of blood emitted an even more sinister aura than his blood-colored True Qi.

If the power of fortune was the most righteous power in the world, then this sea of blood was the most sinister power in the world, seemingly natural opposites, mutually restraining each other.

The sea of blood was too small to restrain the power of fortune that Long Yufei could mobilize from Lánzhōu, but it could restrict the effect of the power of fortune.

However, while restricting the power of fortune, the sea of blood was also being rapidly consumed by the power of fortune, constantly shrinking.

“What is this power?”

Long Yufei was shocked, she had never heard of any power that could restrict the power of fortune.

“Hegemon Sword, Annihilate!”

A giant black sword pierced through the air, a domineering sword intent pervaded, the sword’s tip swallowed sword light, and wherever it passed, even the void was annihilated, only to be restored by the void’s laws after it passed.

“Demon Saber, Soul Slash!”

A cold giant saber slashed through the air, the cold saber intent mixed with a mind-bewildering demonic Qi.

Under this demonic saber, the souls of the one hundred thousand cultivators trembled.

This saber did not slash at the physical body, but at the soul.

“Fire Phoenix, Heaven Incinerate!”

A huge blood flame phoenix spread its wings, and the monstrous blood flames dyed the entire sky red. Even the firmament was burned into nothingness under the burning of these blood flames.

The laws of the void constantly repaired that area of the void, and after it was repaired, it was burned into nothingness again.

Under the burning of the blood flames, that area of the void constantly hovered between destruction and recovery.

Boom!

Three powerful attacks landed, and the power of fortune, restricted by the sea of blood, could no longer withstand them and shattered.

Puff!

However, the three of them did not have the means to restrict the power of fortune like the sea of blood, and they all suffered backlash, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

But they all had smiles on their faces, because after breaking through the fortune barrier, their attacks continued towards Long Yufei.

With Long Yufei’s Martial Ancestor strength, she could not possibly withstand the attacks of three Peak Martial Saints.

She was certain to die.

“Auntie Long, don’t be afraid, we’ll protect you!”

Just then, two childish voices rang out.
