Immortal King Liuyun, looking like a deity descended to the mortal realm, gazed calmly at the colossal sword falling from the sky. She merely extended a fair, jade-like hand and brushed it lightly. An indescribable, obscure, and profound fluctuation spread out. In an instant, the terrifying giant sword melted inch by inch, like lingering snow meeting the blazing sun.
This display of overwhelming power instantly drew cheers from the crowd. Some were so agitated that they teared up and bowed their heads in worship.
Only Gu Qingfeng wore a look of suspicion.
At this moment, Immortal King Liuyun cast an indifferent gaze upon Gu Qingfeng and said faintly, "Either scram, or die."
Gu Qingfeng scrutinized Immortal King Liuyun's exquisite, curvaceous figure for a moment before a savage grin flashed across his lips. "Heh heh heh... Immortal King Liuyun, if this Emperor isn't mistaken, you are injured. And heavily injured at that!"
Immortal King Liuyun's expression remained unchanged as she indifferently replied, "It seems you have chosen death."
"Heh heh heh..." Gu Qingfeng laughed maniacally, as if he had heard the world's funniest joke. "It looks like you really are injured. Otherwise, when would a high and mighty Immortal King ever bother to threaten someone who breached their sect's gates instead of just killing them?"
Immortal King Liuyun remained perfectly calm, her demeanor carrying a faint hint of disdain, as if she couldn't be bothered to dirty her hands killing Gu Qingfeng.
"You are welcome to try." That calm and confident demeanor would make anyone doubt whether she was truly injured.
Unfortunately, Gu Qingfeng was not one to be easily frightened.
"Immortal King Liuyun, there is no need for such posturing. Because... regardless of whether you are injured or not, in the eyes of this Emperor, you are nothing more than a dual cultivation cauldron."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire Liuyun Immortal Domain exploded in uproar.
Their most respected Immortal King, the strongest female cultivator in the world, was actually called a dual cultivation cauldron?!
"How dare you insult the Immortal King!"
"Lord Immortal King, kill this devil immediately! His disrespect warrants death a thousand times over!"
Faced with the indignant crowd, Immortal King Liuyun did not move. A trace of gravity surfaced in her calm eyes.
Just as Gu Qingfeng had said, she was indeed injured, and severely so.
Actually, she had returned long ago, secretly hiding within the Liuyun Immortal Domain without alerting anyone. She had experienced a great battle in the Immortal Meteor Battlefield—a battle that nearly destroyed her body and soul. Although she survived, her injuries were too severe, leaving her with no strength to fight again. Coupled with the fear that her fellow Immortal Kings might harbor malicious intent, she had rushed back to her lair.
After all, she was the only female Immortal King in the Sixth Star Ruins. In the shadows, countless other Immortal Kings eyed her covetously.
At the Immortal King realm, increasing one's strength was incredibly difficult. There were only a handful of methods, such as absorbing Transcendence Matter, or perhaps... harvesting a powerful female Immortal King through dual cultivation.
Immortal King Liuyun knew full well how great a temptation her beauty was to men. Combined with her status as an Immortal King, even those who were not typically lustful would not let her slip by if it meant increasing their power.
She had been healing peacefully in her own lair. Who would have thought Gu Qingfeng would come knocking, shattering the protective mountain array in a single strike? To save her people, she had no choice but to show herself.
But she did not want to fight Gu Qingfeng. This devil's strength was by no means weak. In her prime, she could certainly defeat him, but heavily injured as she was, she could only bluff, hoping to scare him off. If they actually fought, her secret would be exposed.
Obliterating Gu Qingfeng's giant sword just now had looked effortless, but in reality, she had used all her strength. The backlash from her injuries was severe; she was relying entirely on willpower to suppress a mouthful of blood.
"Tsk tsk, it seems your beloved Immortal King has reached the point where her oil is dry and her lamp is fading. Since that's the case, this is truly a godsend. Ordinarily, I wouldn't have such a great opportunity to capture an Immortal King to serve as a dual cultivation cauldron. Heh heh heh..."
Gu Qingfeng's excited, maniacal laughter resonated throughout the venue.
He was telling the truth. Under normal conditions, he and an Immortal King would be an even match—he couldn't do anything to an Immortal King, and an Immortal King couldn't do anything to him. But now that he had encountered an isolated and injured Immortal King... well... heh heh heh...
Faced with Gu Qingfeng's rampant remarks, Immortal King Liuyun remained silent, the calmness in her eyes gradually fading.
At this point, even those who blindly worshipped Immortal King Liuyun noticed something was wrong.
The Immortal King Liuyun in their memories was not this easygoing. There was once a man who liked her too much and held her portrait at night...
The result? That very night, thunder descended from the heavens, blasting him until no corpse remained.
Immortal King Liuyun hated being offended in that manner most of all. Perhaps because she was the only female Immortal King, she had suffered far more hardships than her male counterparts. Before achieving her status, she might have endured endless discrimination, leading to such a personality.
Yet now, facing Gu Qingfeng's brazen and direct insults, she remained indifferent. Could the Lord Immortal King truly be heavily injured?
For a moment, a look of worry flashed through everyone's eyes.
"That is correct. I am indeed injured," Immortal King Liuyun admitted faintly.
The crowd was shocked. Several Quasi-Immortal Kings rushed forward to inquire, but Immortal King Liuyun stopped them.
She continued, "The reason I am letting you leave is not because I cannot deal with you, but because I do not wish for a pyrrhic victory where I kill a thousand enemies but lose eight hundred of my own. That is all. However, if you insist on being obstinate, I will grant your wish."
Clap, clap, clap...
Gu Qingfeng applauded with interest, smiling at Immortal King Liuyun. "You are the most composed woman this Emperor has ever seen. Even in this critical moment, you can still speak such bluffing words without your expression changing. I admire that."
Suddenly, Gu Qingfeng's tone shifted, and a wicked, charming smile appeared on his lips. "But the more you act like this, the more curious I become. I really want to see if your exquisitely beautiful face will remain as calm as it is now after I capture you and press you beneath me. Imagine the scene: your limbs bound in a spread-eagle position, and then your clothes..."
"Shut your mouth! You devil!"
The ever-calm Immortal King Liuyun finally broke. Anger erupted on her beautiful face. Disregarding her injuries and abandoning her bluff, she attacked Gu Qingfeng directly.
An Immortal King was an Immortal King, after all. Even an injured one was still more formidable than anything else—a starving camel is still bigger than a horse.
Immortal King Liuyun took a step forward. The light of Laws and Profundities surged over her soft, delicate body, evolving into a bizarre prison of Laws. This prison was formed by countless interlaced chains of Law, emitting a supreme and holy aura that shook the heavens and earth.
With a wave of her hand, the Prison of Laws soared into the air to suppress Gu Qingfeng.
Clearly, she had heard rumors of Gu Qingfeng's undying body. Although she didn't believe there was truly anyone in the world who couldn't be killed, her current physical condition didn't allow for a protracted battle. She couldn't kill him repeatedly to find his weakness, so she had to suppress him first.
A prison formed by the Laws and Profundities comprehended by an Immortal King offered absolutely no possibility of escape for anyone below the realm of Immortal King!
