Chapter 1356: Chapter 1046: Reminder from the Heavenly Mystery Maiden

Upon hearing the Life-saving Empress’s words, Liu Qingyun immediately kowtowed and said, “Thank you, Honored Master, for fulfilling my wish!”

Without the position of Saintess, it meant that from now on, she could have a couple. This seemed like a punishment to her, but in reality, it was a blessing.

The Life-saving Empress coldly rebuked, “What, you think this is me fulfilling your wish?”

“From today on, you are to stay in the Serenity Tower, and you are not allowed to leave for ten thousand years.”

Hearing this, Liu Qingyun’s face showed no expression, as if she didn’t care at all.

With Liu Qingqiu’s clone at Lu Chen’s side, even if her main body didn’t leave Yunhua Palace, she could still use Liu Qingqiu’s body to create waves with Lu Chen.

Seeing Liu Qingyun’s indifferent expression, the Life-saving Empress frowned slightly but said no more. She waved her hand, “You can go to the Serenity Tower now.”

Liu Qingyun promptly stood up, “Disciple takes leave!”

As her words fell, Liu Qingyun turned and left the hall.

Watching Liu Qingyun’s departing figure, the Life-saving Empress’s face grew uglier. The body she painstakingly cultivated was ruined just like this; how could she not be angry?

Fortunately, Heaven sent another highly gifted woman to Yunhua Palace. With Lie Hongyun’s talent, it wouldn’t be long before her strength surpassed Liu Qingyun’s.

However, the Life-saving Empress did not intend to let it go. She would find a way to deal with the person who broke Liu Qingyun’s Primordial Yin.

Even if Liu Qingyun didn’t tell her, she could find out through other means who the person was.

Just as the Life-saving Empress was distracted by Liu Qingyun’s departing figure, she suddenly felt a special power pass through her body.

Immediately after, a cold female voice sounded in her mind, “The great calamity will begin, ten thousand years to come.”

Upon hearing this, the Life-saving Empress’s expression changed drastically.

“How could it be…”

“How could the great calamity come early?”

The Life-saving Empress knew very well who could send such a message to all the Great Emperors in the universe; it was the Heavenly Mystery Maiden.

She had no doubt about the truth of the Heavenly Mystery Maiden’s words. The Heavenly Mystery Maiden could see the past and the future; if she said it, it would definitely happen.

One hundred thousand years ago, the Heavenly Mystery Maiden calculated that the universe would not face another great calamity for at least a million years. Although a million years is still a short time for a Great Emperor,

at least it was a million years, enough time for the Great Emperors to prepare for the great calamity.

Now the great calamity had come so much earlier, with only ten thousand years to prepare. How could they deal with it?

The Life-saving Empress thought that she must let Lie Hongyun grow up quickly.

If Lie Hongyun couldn’t break through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm within ten thousand years, without a seizing body, she might not survive the great calamity.

With this in mind, the Life-saving Empress sent a message to all Yunhua Palace disciples and elders, “From now on, Liu Qingyun will no longer be the Saintess of Yunhua Palace. The new Saintess will be Lie Hongyun. In three days, a coronation ceremony will be held for the new Saintess.”

Upon hearing this, all the disciples and elders of Yunhua Palace were stunned.

Everyone in Yunhua Palace knew how well the Life-saving Empress treated Liu Qingyun; it could be said that she treated Liu Qingyun like her daughter. Now she had abolished Liu Qingyun’s position as Saintess.

What happened? Why did the Life-saving Empress make such a decision?

Although it was hard to believe, the fact remained that it was the Life-saving Empress’s decision, and no one dared to oppose it.

Liu Qingyun, who was already in the Serenity Tower, heard the Life-saving Empress’s message and exhaled deeply. She was finally free from this identity and no longer bound by it.

However, thinking of not being able to see Lu Chen for the next ten thousand years, she still felt a bit of loss in her heart.

…

Yunhua Palace.

Direct Disciple’s residence.

Amidst a bamboo forest, there was a small courtyard where a woman in a red dress was wielding a long spear.

Upon hearing the Life-saving Empress’s message, Lie Hongyun stopped and expressionlessly looked in the direction of the Meeting Hall.

She didn’t care about the identity of Saintess. On the contrary, she thought it was a burden for her.

Compared to the matter of the Saintess, she was more concerned about the eight words she heard just now.

Although not yet at the Great Emperor Realm, with her Great Emperor Divine Soul, she could still sense the Heavenly Mystery Maiden’s message.

Lie Hongyun murmured, “Only ten thousand years, it seems I must hurry.”

Having already reached the Saint Realm, even though the earlier cultivation stages were fast, each subsequent breakthrough might take thousands of years.

Ten thousand years was too short for her.

After speaking, Lie Hongyun glanced at the marriage line intertwined on her body.

Seeing these marriage lines, Lie Hongyun frowned slightly. To quickly improve her cultivation state, she needed to be undistracted,

but ever since meeting that man, she had been occasionally influenced by the marriage lines, preventing her from focusing on cultivation.

Originally, she could ignore these marriage lines until she reached the Great Emperor Realm when she could cut them off.

But now, with only ten thousand years left before the great calamity, letting these marriage lines stall her could mean not breaking through to the Great Emperor Realm by then.

At that time, she wouldn’t be able to cut off the marriage lines, and even her life would be at risk.

Now, to deal with these marriage lines, there was only one way: to find that man, either kill him or become a couple with him, ensuring her cultivation wouldn’t be hindered by the marriage lines.

Either way, she had to find that man first.

She was unsure if the man was still in the Chaotic Star Sea. Though she could follow the marriage lines to find him, the universe was vast, and if he was too far, it would take a long time.

Moreover, as a reincarnated Great Emperor, he wouldn’t stay in one place, making it harder to find him.

…

In the Chiyue Dynasty’s Imperial Palace.

In the Royal Garden, Lu Chen kept sneezing.

“Ah-choo…”

“Ah… Ah-choo…”

“Strange, who is thinking about me?”

“Surely, I, a Great Emperor, can’t catch a cold?”

Just as he finished speaking, he sensed a peculiar power passing through his body, swiftly spreading towards the edge of the universe like a wave.

Immediately after, a cold female voice appeared in his mind.

“The great calamity will begin, ten thousand years to come.”

Lu Chen froze slightly. Who sent this message?

Soon, Pei Tianlu also heard the voice and appeared in the Royal Garden the next moment.

Seeing Pei Tianlu equally astonished, Lu Chen tentatively asked, “Elder Pei, did you hear it too?”
