After some lively commotion...
"Hmph hmph hmph!"
Su Muwan emerged, completely refreshed and full of energy.
"Ahhh~~ Haa!!"
"Morning air, so crisp and fresh~"
"Simply wonderful."
She took a deep breath, then turned and waved her hand. "Luoluo~~ You feel the same, right?"
Qin Luo followed behind her.
He had just washed his hands and shook off the water droplets with slight exasperation. "Wonderful... I guess..."
Just moments ago, Su Muwan had forcefully manhandled him again.
"Hmph! What kind of attitude is this for Qin Luo to be so listless first thing in the morning?!"
"Disgraceful!"
Su Muwan glared at Qin Luo, utterly unrepentant about her earlier actions.
Suddenly, she remembered something and asked, "Oh right, why did you wake me up so early today?"
"Are we really going to practice swordsmanship?"
Qin Luo walked over to her and pondered for a moment. "Well, practicing swordsmanship was your idea, Young Miss. But... that’s not why I woke you up this morning."
"Then why?"
"Young Miss, have you forgotten what we did yesterday?"
Su Muwan blinked. "What we did...?"
She pointed at herself. "I ate a hand."
Then pointed at Qin Luo. "You ate a foot."
Qin Luo: "........"
That wasn’t wrong, but...
Qin Luo sighed softly. "Young Miss, we haven’t fully absorbed all the sacred domains of the Eastern Celestial Realm yet. The Sacred Domain War just ended—today is the day we unify them!"
Su Muwan coughed awkwardly. "Ahem, well, you should’ve said so earlier..."
Qin Luo shrugged. "I thought you’d remember, Young Miss. After all, you always tell me not to remind you about things, lest you turn into a lazy freeloader."
"Though, but..."
He paused, then simply stared at her.
Su Muwan: ?
Wait—
Su Muwan froze, then flushed with indignation. "Are you saying I’m already a freeloader?!"
"I didn’t say that..."
"You did! Your eyes betrayed you!"
"Qin Luo! What happened to you?! Where’s the Qin Luo who used to indulge me?!"
Shaking with fury, Su Muwan felt she hadn’t changed at all—so why had Qin Luo become like this?
Who corrupted him?!
Qin Luo watched her flustered reaction and nodded.
"Just as I thought."
"What?"
"Teasing the Young Miss is especially fun."
"??"
......
A short while later...
Above the Netherfrost Sacred Domain, over a dozen golden pillars of light shot into the sky, dyeing the sea of clouds in dazzling iridescence.
The spirit beasts in the clouds blinked their big eyes enviously at the radiant pillars.
They knew—these were the sacred domain cores of other domains.
Each one contained the accumulated essence of an entire sacred domain.
Hooray! The Domain Lord is about to distribute spirit beast rations again!
Little Sharkie wriggled excitedly, sensing the imminent expansion of their territory.
Qin Luo and Su Muwan stood atop the clouds, while below them knelt countless cultivators of the Eastern Celestial Realm.
Foreheads pressed to the ground, they raised their lifebound artifacts high, their voices surging like tidal waves.
"We pledge eternal allegiance to the Netherfrost Sacred Domain!"
Under someone else’s roof, one must bow.
Defeated in the Sacred Domain War, their own lords slain—
To survive the coming chaos of the myriad realms,
They had no choice but to submit to a new ruler.
And to make it more dramatic—or rather, because Su Muwan wanted to show off—
She reclined lazily on her crystalline throne, twirling a blood-red cat’s eye gem between her fingers.
According to Qin Luo, this was a rule gem forged from a fragment of the Calamity.
When thrown, it could unleash a domain of absolute law.
But in its dormant state, it could brand souls as Sword Slaves.
She glanced at the remnants of the Thunder Domain kneeling at the front and sneered. "Weren’t you all swearing to grind my bones to dust just days ago? Now you’re as docile as dogs."
"Y-yes…"
The Thunder Domain’s Grand Elder trembled violently, his forehead slamming against the cloud-tiled ground. "P-Please, Domain Lord Su, spare us!"
"Spare you?"
Su Muwan clenched her fist—the cat’s eye gem flared crimson.
The kneeling cultivators screamed as sword-shaped marks burned into their brows.
Satisfied, she smirked.
"From this day forth, your souls belong to the Sword Tomb’s rule."
"Dare to betray me—"
Before she could finish, a defiant cultivator exploded into a mist of blood, his soul transforming into a sword shadow that vanished into her palm.
Silence.
Every breath halted. Every pupil trembled.
Holy sht!
That gem in the tyrant’s hand—its aura was identical to the Sword Calamity’s!
No way…
She could wield the power of a Calamity?!
Madness!
Are people from minor worlds always this barbaric?!
This tyra—wait…
Why do I suddenly not hate Domain Lord Su anymore?
"Luoluo."
She lazily tilted her chin toward her side. "Handle the rest."
Qin Luo stepped forward with a faint smile, unfurling the Ten Thousand Demon Banner.
The black banner rippled, revealing illusory projections of the Eastern Celestial Realm’s twenty-two sacred domains. With a flick of his finger—
A wave of glacial energy seeped into the map.
"Henceforth, all domain spirit veins shall merge into the Netherfrost Grand Array. Cultivators will be organized by rank into the ‘Netherfrost Legion.’"
"All secret realms, treasuries, artifacts, and elixirs must be inventoried and surrendered within three days..."
He paused, his gaze sweeping over the ashen-faced domain lords.
His voice turned icy. "If anyone dares to hide anything—"
"WE WOULDN’T DARE!!"
The crowd roared in unison, drenched in cold sweat.
They exchanged glances—
Each seeing the same defeated resignation in the others’ eyes.
In just a few days, the Eastern Celestial Realm had undergone a cataclysmic upheaval.
Truly terrifying!
Three days later...
The Netherfrost Sacred Domain had absorbed every sacred domain in the Eastern Celestial Realm.
The realm’s spirit veins now belonged solely to Netherfrost.
Its territory had expanded ten-thousandfold.
And then—
A nine-colored aurora blazed across the heavens. The clouds parted like tides, revealing a colossal golden gate spanning the sky.
As its doors slowly creaked open, a divine proclamation resounded through all realms:
[The Netherfrost Sacred Domain reigns supreme over the Eastern Celestial.]
[Spirit veins bow, destiny converges.]
[...]
[Now, ascend as a Divine Domain!]
