Battle Through the Heavens: Marry Cao Ying, Reward is Devouring Ancestral Symbol

Annihilate the allied forces and advance into Izumo.In the distant sky.

Xie Shan, completely crushed by spatial power, didn’t even have time to scream before exploding into a cloud of blood mist, leaving no bones behind.

A Peak Dou Huang was like an ant in her hands.

This completely shattered the Myriad Scorpion Gate’s allied army’s last psychological defense.

Under the ferocious onslaught of the Snake-People Clan’s powerhouses, the battle quickly turned into a one-sided slaughter.

Shen Wen no longer paid attention to the bloodshed behind him. He turned, embraced Cao Ying’s waist, and said to Cai Lin, ”Let’s go, back.”

Cai Lin immediately reined in her Killing Intent and obediently replied, ”Yes, Master.”

With Dan Chen also rushing over, the four of them transformed into streaks of light, instantly returning to the main hall of the Snake-People Tribes Sacred City.

Completely isolating the shouts of battle and despair from the outside world.

Inside the hall, Qing Lin immediately came forward to greet them.

Qing Lin’s small face was still a bit pale, but she already knew the outcome. She looked at Shen Wen with eyes full of admiration and whispered, ”Young Master is so amazing!”

Cao Ying let out a sigh of relief, relaxing completely. Only then did she have the presence of mind to carefully examine Shen Wen.

Her gaze finally landed on his arm, which had returned to normal but still faintly retained a sense of terrifying power.

She couldn’t help but poke it with her fingertip: ”Husband, your arm... what was with those Dragon scales just now?

They looked quite scary.”

Shen Wen let her do as she pleased, smiling, ”Just a slight Breakthrough in my Cultivation. What, did I scare my Ying’er?”

”Who, who got scared!” Cao Ying seemed to have her tail stepped on, immediately withdrew her hand, and raised her chin, feigning composure.

”I was just curious! Yes, just curious!”

Seeing her feigned composure, Shen Wen couldn’t help but chuckle and reached out to pull her closer.

However, Cao Ying skillfully twisted her waist and dodged, hiding behind Qing Lin, then poked her head out and made a face at him: ”You just finished a fight, you’re full of Killing Intent, stay away from me!”

Shen Wen raised an eyebrow, about to speak.

”Master,” Cai Lin’s voice sounded from the side. She held a cup of warm tea and respectfully offered it, ”Please have some tea.”

Her posture was extremely humble, completely different from the cold and enchanting queen who had slain a Peak Dou Huang with a wave of her hand on the battlefield just moments ago.

Only her slightly lowered eyelashes and the subtle tremor when her fingertips accidentally brushed Shen Wen’s while holding the teacup.

Revealed her inner turmoil.

Shen Wen took the teacup, his fingertips indeed brushing her cool, smooth hand unintentionally.

Cai Lin quickly withdrew her hand as if struck by a faint current, and a blush quietly crept up her earlobes.

This scene was coincidentally witnessed by Cao Ying.

She pouted, walked out from behind Qing Lin, and spoke with a hint of sourness she herself didn’t detect: ”Sister is truly considerate.”

Upon hearing this, Cai Lin immediately turned to Cao Ying, her posture even more respectful: ”Serving Master and Elder Sister is Cai Lin’s duty.”

Shen Wen looked at the two stunning beauties before him, each with a distinct style—one alluring and lively, the other cold and submissive—and a sense of satisfaction welled up in his heart.

He took a sip of tea and said to Cai Lin, ”With this matter concluded, quickly reorganize the Snake-People Clan.

We need to make a trip to the Izumo Empire.”

Cao Ying’s attention was immediately diverted, and she asked, puzzled, ”Go to the Izumo Empire?

The main force of the Myriad Scorpion Gate has been annihilated; the rest are mere rabble. Why do we need to go personally?”

Shen Wen put down his teacup. ”Xie Bi Yan summoned a Soul Hall Protector before his death.

Although the Iron Protector is dead, it’s hard to guarantee that the Izumo Empire doesn’t have other Hall of Souls strongholds or informants.

The Hall of Souls is like a venomous snake hidden in the dark; we must uproot their tentacles here, otherwise, there will be endless trouble.”

He looked at Cao Ying and Cai Lin: ”Besides, since we’ve made a move, we must clean up thoroughly. And those Sect’s Foundations, surely we won’t leave them for those people, right?”

Cai Lin nodded.

Cao Ying also put away her playful expression and nodded: ”The Hall of Souls is indeed persistent. Husband’s decision is final.”

She naturally knew about the Pill Tower’s grievances with the Hall of Souls, so she also supported eradicating the Hall of Souls.

Just then, Hai Bodong’s figure appeared outside the hall and respectfully reported: ”Lord Shen Wen, the enemy forces outside the city have all been annihilated! Captured supplies are being inventoried.”

Shen Wen nodded slightly: ”Well done.

Hai Bodong, you also prepare, and come with us to the Izumo Empire.”

Hai Bodong’s spirits lifted, and he immediately bowed: ”Yes! Your subordinate will not shrink from any danger!”

”You performed well this time. If you can find the medicinal ingredients, I’ll help you refine a Huangji Pill.”

”Yes!”

Hai Bodong was beaming with excitement; he was now completely devoted to Shen Wen.

Indeed.

Cultivating diligently is not as good as making the right choice... Izumo Empire, Imperial Palace Main Hall.

Inside the resplendent hall, the Emperor of Chu Yun sat upright, his fingers unconsciously tapping the armrest of the Dragon Throne, his eyes showing a hint of anxiety and anticipation.

It had been some time since the Myriad Scorpion Gate’s allied army departed. Old Ancestor Xie Bi Yan personally took action, and it was rumored there was also a Dou Zong from a major power as a backup.

Logically, annihilating Medusa, who had just experienced a Breakthrough and whose Foundation was unstable, should be an easy feat.

He only waited for the good news to return, then he could proceed to carve up the Snake-People Clan’s territory, and even annex the other three great Empires in the future, becoming a truly first-rate power.

Just as his heart was surging with excitement.

”Boom!!!”

With a tremendous crash, the roof of the main hall exploded, shattered stones and tiles rained down, and sturdy beams instantly snapped!

Violent air currents, laden with dust, surged into the hall.

The Emperor of Chu Yun was so startled by this sudden turn of events that he leaped from the Dragon Throne, his protective Dou Qi instinctively activated, deflecting the falling debris.

He was furious and alarmed, his heart pounding. His first thought was that a powerful enemy was taking advantage of Old Ancestor Xie’s absence to assassinate him!

As the dust settled slightly, five figures hovered beneath the shattered dome of the hall, looking down impassively.

The leader was a young man in a black robe, his expression calm.

Behind him, a blue-robed elder and two women, each with a distinct charm—one alluring, one elegant—were clearly extraordinary.

”Presumptuous! This is the Imperial Capital of the Izumo Empire! I am the monarch of this nation! Who are you, to dare...”

The Emperor of Chu Yun suppressed the panic in his heart, roaring with feigned ferocity, trying to use the Empire’s and Xie Bi Yan’s names to intimidate the newcomers.

”Old Ancestor Xie Bi Yan will return in an instant. If you kneel and beg for mercy now, I might spare your complete corpses!”

Before he finished speaking.

Hai Bodong showed a sneering cold smile and casually tossed a round object down as if it were trash.

The object rolled ”gulu-gulu” to the feet of the Emperor of Chu Yun.

The Emperor of Chu Yun instinctively looked down.

It was a human head!

Those facial features, he devoutly kowtowed to them every year, he couldn’t be more familiar... Old Ancestor Xie!

The anger on the Emperor of Chu Yun’s face instantly froze, and the color drained from his face at a visible speed, becoming ashen white as paper.

His pupils suddenly contracted to pinprick size, his body uncontrollably trembled violently, and he staggered backward until his spine hit the Dragon Throne, barely steadying himself.

Dou Zong Xie Bi Yan... dead?

Their greatest reliance had just turned into a cold head?!
