"Hehe... hehe!"
Gu Wantang suddenly laughed out loud. Her smile was incredibly eerie, giving off a spine-chilling feeling.
The young girl's originally pink, thin lips had turned crimson. As she slowly opened her eyes... her gaze revealed pure madness, as terrifying as a witch born from hell.
Her aura was naturally terrifying beyond compare. Despite only having the cultivation of a First-life Emperor Realm, the oppressive feeling she gave off was completely on par with those Great Emperors who had lived out their second lives.
With blood-red pupils and unparalleled madness, the woman gently licked her red lips. At this moment, the power of Yin and Yang within her body had completely collapsed.
The negative effects of the Lunar Immortal Body were fully manifesting!
Obviously, Gu Wantang had failed to overcome her Inner Demon Tribulation.
The complete collapse of the Yin and Yang power in her body allowed an extremely dark and evil entity to seize control of her physical form. This was not a mere inner demon possession in the sense of the Lunar Mystic Maiden; it completely twisted the main personality, effectively erasing the original Gu Wantang's personality.
A Yin Beast!
This was a problem encountered by many cultivators in the Nine Heavens who possessed extremely Yin or extremely Yang physiques.
For example, a male cultivator with a Supreme Yang Holy Body whose extreme Yang power completely collapsed during tribulation would have his mind twisted by evil thoughts, turning into a Yang Beast. He might be slain on the spot by other high-level cultivators, though the probability of this happening was extremely low. After all, no matter how strong a Holy Body was, it was very difficult for it to reach the point of twisting one's sanity.
But Gu Wantang's Lunar Immortal Body was different. It was the number one extreme Yin physique in the Nine Heavens!
Of course... even if an existence like her became a Yin Beast, she would be the King of Yin Beasts!
Then, the woman slowly stood up. Her body was covered by a layer of crimson gauze, radiating evil power all around.
The woman lowered her eyes and looked at her hands. She now desperately craved extreme Yang power. No matter who it was... anyone would do!
This was the terrifying aspect of a Yin Beast. It was said that in the Demon Realm of the Nine Heavens, there was once a female immortal with a Mystic Yin Immortal Body who became a Yin Beast. The number of cultivators drained of their extreme Yang power by her had reached as high as ten million, and the death toll was still rising.
However, just as she was about to get up and look for male cultivators, her feet were suddenly immobilized by a force.
At the same time, another unfamiliar divine soul within her body slowly awakened.
It began to compete with her for the control of the body!
[Lowly soul, how dare you overstep?]
Clearly, the Lunar Mystic Maiden's divine soul, which Gu Wantang had sealed using a secret technique, had revived. After reviving... she could no longer sense Gu Wantang's soul aura at all, indicating it had completely dissipated.
This made her incredibly angry. Gu Wantang's divine soul had ultimately been lost in the Inner Demon Tribulation.
The Yin Beast furrowed her delicate brows. Without sanity, she did not understand why there was another divine soul in her body. But she didn't care at all... she only wanted to find male cultivators now, specifically those who mastered pure Yang power. The more, the better!
"Just you wait. Tangtang died because of you, and Jiang Che will not let you off. He will grind your bones to dust!"
The Lunar Mystic Maiden tried to seize control of the body, but discovered something terrifying.
She couldn't even outcompete Gu Wantang for dominance over the body, and this inner demon had even obliterated Gu Wantang's soul.
The most important thing was that perhaps even Gu Wantang herself hadn't expected to transform into the King of Yin Beasts after failing the Inner Demon Tribulation.
[Then I'll just stall her and wait for Jiang Che to come and handle it.]
The Lunar Mystic Maiden's thought process was very clear. In this situation, the only existence capable of dealing with this Yin Beast was Jiang Che.
Although that lustful little man had a low cultivation level, he could absolutely create miracles.
At worst, she would expend her own soul power. Even though she couldn't completely seize control of the body, restricting its movements was still possible.
Of course, even if this Yin Beast ran out, it would be impossible for her to find other men to seize their Yang essence, because outside the lightning tribulation... many immortals of the Lunar Immortal Palace had been waiting for a long time. There was no escape.
But she didn't want her ugly and dirty side to be seen by others. After all, heaven knows what a Yin Beast might do; streaking naked was entirely within the realm of possibility.
"Roar..."
Unable to move, the woman began to growl low, seemingly wanting to struggle and escape.
"Smelly man... hurry up and come!" the Lunar Mystic Maiden said worriedly. Her soul power was only at the Quasi-Emperor level, but the Yin Beast's divine soul was at the peak of the First-life Emperor Realm. She could only hold on for... at most one day.
Meanwhile, Jiang Che had actually already arrived.
[Beep! The host has tricked the Lunar Mystic Maiden, gaining 80 million points.]
In the void, Jiang Che sat cross-legged, with his invisibility immortal magic and intangibility activated. Even an Immortal Emperor couldn't detect his presence. The cost... was 10,000 points per second, but this amount of points was just a drop in the bucket for the current Jiang Che.
The journey from the Jiang family to the Lunar Immortal Palace was far, separated by millions of domains. Even with the power of an Immortal Emperor, it would take several hours to cross. The Realm-Piercing Immortal Boat was fast... but it would still take half a day to arrive.
Just in case, Jiang Che directly bought a Realm-Piercing Divine Talisman from the system shop and instantly crossed realms to get here!
There was no helping it; when it came to his wife, he had to take it seriously!
After all, being even a second late could lead to mistakes.
"A Yin Beast? Now that's somewhat interesting!"
Jiang Che walked up to the woman. Because he had transparent intangibility activated, even standing right in front of her, she still couldn't detect his presence.
Jiang Che observed the woman in front of him.
Truth be told, Gu Wantang's appearance was many times more beautiful than in her photos. Especially her current evil-style getup, which made Jiang Che's eyes light up.
As for Gu Wantang's original soul? Jiang Che naturally wouldn't let it truly dissipate. Even if it was completely scattered, he had ways to retrieve it.
The existence of Mother System was very reassuring.
Jiang Che wasn't in a hurry either. He just sat cross-legged in front of Gu Wantang. Even though terrifying lightning tribulations surrounded them, they couldn't harm him in the slightest.
"Damn smelly man, why aren't you here yet!!!"
"One of your future wives is already dead. If you don't come soon, I'm going to die too!" The Lunar Mystic Maiden scolded Jiang Che in her heart.
However, Jiang Che listened with great interest. He actually quite liked girls with dual personalities; the contrast was the main selling point, right?
...
About half a day later, Jiang Che saw that the Lunar Mystic Maiden's soul power was becoming somewhat scattered, and she was about to be unable to hold on.
He slowly dissipated.
At the same time, on the periphery of the heavenly tribulation!
"Oh no! I fear Her Highness Tang'er has met with a mishap." An immortal frowned. She didn't dare to rashly probe her divine sense into the tribulation area; after all, this was a Great Dao Immortal Tribulation. What if her aura was locked onto as well...
"Her Highness the Palace Master has already gone to look for Mr. Jiang. I'm afraid only Mr. Jiang has the ability to resolve this matter!"
Just as these Immortals and Great Emperors were having a headache over this, a flying immortal boat pierced through the realm from afar!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
