Along the way from the Tianyu Empire to Hanxu Dynasty, Lucian once told Eris that he intended to seduce the Hanxu Empress and use her influence to reach the Central Continent.

Hearing this, she rolled her eyes, and muttered, “Sigh… From the mortal Empire to the Dynasty of the cultivation world… can you really not pass up a single Empress along the way?”

His grin only widened, “If I had, would you be here at all, my dear mother?”

Looking at her somewhat jealous glare, he of course pounded her harder, until she couldn’t retort even a word, only scratch at his back and scream in pleasure.

Now, standing in the cold corridor of the Imperial Palace, with Eris facing off against the Empress Zuqin, this conversation flashed through his mind.

He thought Eris wanted to get close to Empress Zuqin so that he could use that opportunity, but as time passed things only got worse.

To the point that right now Empress Zuqin had a killing intent thicker than winter fog as she took out an ancient guqin.

The guqin in Empress Zuqin’s hands was jade white, seemingly carved from a single piece of spiritual jade.

Seven strings stretched across its surface, each glowing with Spiritual light. Mysterious runes were carved along its edges.

“A Divine Treasure,” As soon as Lucian saw the guqin, his expression changed slightly because he could sense a very familiar Law radiating from it – the Sound Law, the same one he had been comprehending!

He didn’t dare hesitate to take out his Halberd.

Eris’s rosy lips curled up as she heard Lucian’s voice transmission, telling her not to take out her own treasure.

At this moment, Empress Zuqin’s index finger trembled as Spiritual Energy condensed atop it, then it descended on a string on the ancient guqin in her hand.

Twaannng!

An ear piercing sound like heavenly thunder echoed through the corridor!

The vibration was so intense that the glass windows and decorative vases nearby shattered instantly, their fragments turning to dust before even hitting the floor!

Right at this moment, one of the strings on the guqin seemed to transform into a sharp spear as it howled out towards Eris, flying straight for her huge chest as if wanting to pierce through her!

The expressions of the maids behind the Empress as well as those of the Imperial Guards who had come here after hearing the commotion went pale, and they felt as if their souls was about to explode from the vibration!

They immediately backed away, and those with weaker cultivation felt blood trickle from their ears and noses.

It took a long time to explain everything, but from the moment Empress Zuqin plucked the guqin to Lucian taking out his Halberd, everything happened in the blink of an eye!

Just as the spear was about to touch Eris, Lucian’s Halberd abruptly appeared between them.

Bang!!

As the spear touched the Halberd’s blade, it immediately shattered into countless fragments of light that dissipated into the air like fireflies in the night!

This scene caused Empress Zuqin to freeze, her pupils shrinking into pinholes.

Because Empress Zuqin was at the Peak of the Divinity Transformation stage and she wasn’t an average cultivator, but could be placed at the very top among those of her realm.

Her comprehension of the Sound Law was extremely profound, and had already evolved into Sound Authority!

Although she hadn’t used her full power, seeing a Nascent Soul cultivator easily stopping her Authority-imbued attack caused Empress Zuqin’s eyes to narrow.

“A Divine Treasure related to Sound Law just like my guqin!? No this isn’t a simple Law Treasure but a Divine Treasure with Authority! How interesting…”

She immediately understood how this mere Nascent Soul cultivator could block her attack.

“Tell me commoner, where did you find this treasure?” Zuqin asked, her heterochromatic eyes gleaming with curiosity as she stared at the Halberd in Lucian’s hands.

At the same time,

“Mother, are you alright?” Iris asked as she and Sylvia rushed to Eris’s side, their faces filled with concern.

Eris nodded with a smirk, “Of course, darling. This old hag’s attack couldn’t even scratch me.”

Lucian placed the Halberd on his shoulder and smirked, “If you ask me politely, I might consider telling you about my treasure, Empress.”

Zuqin’s face twitched, “It’s already your honor that this Empress is willing to speak with a lowly commoner like you.”

Lucian chuckled, “Honor? I’ve fucked more beautiful women than you. At least they knew how to make real noises, unlike someone who can only make noise with her toy.”

“Heh! My court eunuchs have more presence than you,” She sneered coldly.

“Well, I still have my balls,” Lucian laughed, “And if you want, I might let you touch them.”

“How dare you talk to this Empress like this!” Zuqin’s jade-like face flushed crimson, her fingers trembling as she prepared to strike the guqin again.

At this moment, heavy footsteps echoed through the corridor, and a stern voice called out.

“My Empress, what’s the matter?” Emperor Ji Chunqiu’s confused voice rang out as he approached with several ministers and guards.

As soon as Zuqin heard the voice, her face twisted in disgust in a way that could crack a Divine Treasure!

“Why are they still here!?” Looking at Lucian’s group, Ji Chunqiu asked Commander Han Yu who was still kneeling on the ground.

Meanwhile Zuqin suddenly thought of something and her plump lips curved into a beautiful smile.

So at this moment, before Han Yu could reply, Zuqin cast a disdainfull glace at Ji Chunqiu, then turned to look at Lucian,

“This is the first time this Empress has seen someone comprehending the Law of Sound just like Us. Come, follow Me to My palace. This Empress wishes to discuss the Dao… privately.”

As soon as Emperor Ji Chunqiu heard this, his face turned extremely ugly as if he had eaten a thousand-year-old rotten egg!

The corridor fell silent. Even the ministers dared not breathe too loudly.

Lucian’s eyes darted between the Emperor and Empress, a smile playing on his lips.
