Fantasy: My Wife is the Empress, and Our Cute Kids Wreak Havoc in the Nine Provinces – Chapter 72

Chapter 72: You Mean That Pseudo-Emperor? He’s Already Dead

After the siblings finished their playful banter, Long Yufei led them to the Provincial Governor’s Mansion. Using the Provincial Governor’s Seal, she suppressed Liu Fei Long’s clone, allowing the old woman to slay it. Only then did they return together to the forbidden area behind the mountain.

“Provincial Governor Long has arrived.”

“She finally found those two Little Babies. Now we can enter the secret realm.”

“Those two Little Babies are actually wearing masks.”

“These masks are strange. I can’t sense any aura from the two Little Babies at all.”

The ninety-eight Lánzhōu prodigies waiting there were instantly invigorated. However, they were surprised and shocked to see the Little Babies wearing masks.

“Provincial Governor Long, release us at once.”

The elders of the three major powers spoke up, their tone incredibly arrogant.

“Hmm?”

Long Yufei raised an eyebrow, turned to look at the elders of the three major powers, and her expression remained calm.

“How dare you!”

The old woman’s face suddenly turned cold, and a terrifying Heavenly Sword Intent swept over.

“Hmph! Long Yufei, I advise you to know your place. Don’t think that just because you control the Lánzhōu Provincial Governor’s Seal that you’re invincible.”

The elders sneered repeatedly, seemingly unafraid of Long Yufei’s status as Provincial Governor.

They had already sensed two terrifying auras earlier, auras that completely surpassed that of Peak Martial Saints.

Without a doubt, two Martial Emperors had appeared in Lánzhōu City.

The appearance of Martial Emperors at this time clearly meant that the Provincial Governor and the sect masters of the three major powers had succeeded in their plan.

They just didn’t quite understand why there were only two Martial Emperors.

According to the plan, there should have been four Martial Emperors.

They didn’t know which two had become Martial Emperors, but no matter who it was, they no longer needed to fear Long Yufei.

“You’re courting death!”

The old woman was furious, and the sword Qi behind her surged, wishing she could chop these bastards into pieces.

Long Yufei waved her hand to stop her, looked at the elders, and said calmly, “What gave you the courage to openly defy this official?”

An elder from the Demon Saber Sect said coldly, “Long Yufei, you should have sensed the auras of Martial Emperors, right? Let me tell you the truth, that’s what we’ve been planning all along. Now that two Martial Emperors have emerged from our three major powers, do you think you, a mere Martial Venerable, can suppress Martial Emperors with the Provincial Governor’s Seal?”

“Martial Emperors!”

The old woman’s expression changed drastically. She had also sensed the auras of two Martial Emperors earlier. One of the Martial Emperor’s auras was almost identical to that of the steward.

So this was their real purpose.

She forced herself to calm down and said in a deep voice, “Provincial Governor Long is of the Imperial Family’s bloodline. Are you planning to rebel?”

The Demon Saber Sect elder sneered twice and said, “Rebel? We wouldn’t dare. But killing an Imperial Family member and framing the murderer of the old Provincial Governor isn’t a difficult task.”

“You!”

The old woman pointed at the elder, so angry that she couldn’t speak.

A cold smile appeared on Long Yufei’s lips as she said calmly, “With my cultivation, even controlling the Provincial Governor’s Seal, I indeed cannot suppress Martial Emperors. However, among all the people from your three major powers, you seem to be the most eager. You seem to have a lot of hatred for me?”

The Demon Saber Sect elder’s face darkened, and he said angrily, “Hatred? You colluded with those two little brats to kill my brother. This is an irreconcilable feud.”

“Killed your brother?”

Long Yufei was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized, “Oh, so you’re that Elder Shui Mo’s older brother.”

“Hmph! Martial Emperors have emerged from our three major powers. You and those two little brats are doomed.”

Elder Shui Mo’s older brother roared, his eyes bloodshot, and a terrifying saber intent slammed against the formation barrier. Unfortunately, this formation barrier was incredibly strong, and no matter how he attacked, it was useless.

“Martial Emperor? Hehe, Liu Fei Long did indeed become a Martial Emperor.”

A hint of mockery appeared on Long Yufei’s face. “But not by devouring one hundred thousand cultivators, but by devouring the sect masters of your three major powers, barely becoming a pseudo-emperor.”

“Devouring one hundred thousand cultivators?”

“Devouring our sect masters?”

“What on earth is going on?”

The hundred prodigies were bewildered and shocked. They had no idea about Liu Fei Long’s conspiracy.

“What?”

The elders of the three major powers were shocked.

◈◈◈

“No, this is impossible.”

Elder Shui Mo’s older brother was unwilling to accept this fact, and many other elders also found it hard to believe.

“Don’t believe it?”

Long Yufei waved her hand and threw out a recording stone. Golden light intertwined to form a series of images, precisely the scene of Liu Fei Long devouring Fu Zhantian and the other two.

“Sect Master, no!”

Seeing this scene, most of the elders let out desperate roars.

The reason why they could become the three major powers in Lánzhōu, besides their own deep foundations, was more importantly because of these three Peak Martial Saints.

Now that the three Peak Martial Saints had fallen, the status of the three major powers would likely be difficult to maintain.

“How could this happen? Damn Liu Fei Long, he actually devoured our sect masters?”

The prodigies from the three major powers were dumbfounded, in disbelief, as if the sky had fallen.

Elder Shui Mo’s older brother’s expression was uncertain, his eyes gradually turning mad, and he roared, “Even so, Liu Fei Long became an Emperor, he won’t let you go.”

Long Yufei said lightly, “Didn’t you say you sensed the auras of two Martial Emperors? Aren’t you curious where the other Martial Emperor came from?”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked over with curiosity.

Long Yufei said, word by word, “That is a Martial Emperor of my empire. Liu Fei Long did not undergo the Great Heavenly Tribulation and became a pseudo-emperor. In front of a true Martial Emperor, he couldn’t even withstand a single blow. He is already dead.”

An Imperial Martial Emperor?

The old woman looked at Long Yufei strangely. She knew very well that it was impossible for the empire to send a Martial Emperor at this time. That mysterious Martial Emperor was definitely not from the empire.

As for the true origin of that mysterious Martial Emperor, since Long Yufei didn’t want to say, she naturally wouldn’t expose it.

“Dead?”

“A Martial Emperor was just born in my Lánzhōu, and he’s already dead?”

“Good riddance. This can be considered revenge for the sect masters.”

Hearing that Liu Fei Long was dead, some were shocked, some were melancholic, and some were delighted.

Long Yufei’s gaze swept over the elders and said calmly, “Liu Fei Long and the others set up a forbidden formation, intending to devour one hundred thousand cultivators for their cultivation. This is a heinous crime, punishable by the extermination of three generations. You are accomplices and should be executed.”

With that, she summoned the Provincial Governor’s Seal, which hovered above the formation, and strands of the power of fortune dripped down.

As soon as these words were spoken, all the elders’ expressions changed drastically.

Now they were trapped in this strange formation and couldn’t get out. Now they were suppressed by the power of fortune mobilized by the Provincial Governor’s Seal, and they couldn’t even exert half of their strength.

If the old woman beside her made a move, they wouldn’t be able to resist at all.

For a time, everyone looked desperate.

“However, this official can give you a chance to redeem yourselves.”

Long Yufei changed the subject, pointed at Elder Shui Mo’s older brother, and said, “Kill him, and this official can let bygones be bygones.”

Everyone looked over.

“No, you can’t do this.”

Elder Shui Mo’s older brother’s expression changed drastically, and he took a step back.

“Sorry.”

One person said apologetically, and then he attacked without mercy.

To survive, they resolutely chose to act.

“Ai Chirou, Ai Kaorou, don’t look, it’ll affect your appetite.”

Long Yufei covered the siblings’ eyes.

“No, ah!”

Soon, the screams of Elder Shui Mo’s older brother could be heard.

Although everyone’s strength was restricted, they couldn’t withstand the sheer number of people.
