Chapter 639: Chapter 640: The Proud Queen

Wind Swift Clan?

Cuiyu’s sudden return brought a look of surprise to Ye Xin’s face.

Why had the Wind Swift Clan come here, and specifically to this Green Spirit Clan settlement?

“Brother Cui Liu said the group from the Wind Swift Clan was originally here to see the corpse of the Purple Demon Fish, but somehow, they found the traces of sister and brother’s fall. There’s only our settlement nearby. They’re already heading this way.”

“There are many strong warriors among that group from the Wind Swift Clan. If they find you, sister, the outcome will likely be grim.”

“Despite this unconscious brother being powerful enough to kill the Purple Demon Fish, he’s in a coma right now and completely unable to fight those people.”

Cuiyu spoke with urgency in her voice, clearly indicating that the Wind Swift Clan was quickly closing in.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

But just at that moment, a wild wind suddenly arose outside, with the howling gusts unceasing, causing Cuiyu’s face to change dramatically.

Because she knew, the sound of the wind signaled that the Wind Swift Clan had arrived in the settlement!

“It’s too late, too late,” Cuiyu exclaimed, clutching her head in frustration.

“You three from the Human Clan, you really are here!” At the same time, a scolding voice suddenly came from outside.

And this voice caused Cuiyu’s face to change dramatically again, looking up at Ye Xin with concern.

However, when she looked up, she saw that there was no hint of panic on Ye Xin’s face. Instead, Ye Xin was calmly looking outside, with a potion bottle suddenly appearing in her hand.

Lin Qian couldn’t take any potions, lest the potent effects stimulate his body, but Ye Xin didn’t have that problem.

Originally, her injuries weren’t severe, simply caused by excessive depletion. Her dried-up meridians also weren’t well-suited for potion intake.

But now, things were different. She had already recovered quite a bit and was fully able to take the potion Lin Qian had given her.

Popping the cork, she poured the entire contents into her mouth, and with a resolute expression, Ye Xin stepped out of the house. Cuiyu, anxious like an ant on a hot pan, nervously followed her out.

At this moment, the Green Spirit Clan’s settlement was completely surrounded by the Wind Swift Clan, with figures of the Wind Swift Clan visible throughout the skies.

And the settlement’s Great Grandfather had already left his house, standing at the center of the settlement, looking up at a member of the Wind Swift Clan in mid-air.

This member of the Wind Swift Clan had a long beard and wore a cape that seemed ethereal and transparent, shimmering with light and faintly marked with the flow of wind. His aura was fierce and intimidating.

Beside him, three other strong presences floated in the air, looking down from above.

Standing by the Great Grandfather’s side were the three Elders, and their faces were filled with an unpleasant expression as they stared upwards.

The arriving members of the Wind Swift Clan were numerous; at a rough glance, there were at least ten thousand, with an abundance of auras, mostly from the Life and Death Realm, and about twenty from the Awakening Realm.

“Oh, there’s another from the Human Clan, and a woman at that?” Upon seeing Ye Xin walk out of the house, the leading man of the Wind Swift Clan couldn’t help but sneer, “What’s going on these days? The Western Continent has become a place where your Human Clan comes and goes as you please, daring even to step into our Wind Swift Clan’s territory!”

“What’s this, acting all mighty now? When the Purple Demon Fish was wreaking havoc, where was the Wind Swift Clan to be seen?” As the leading man from the Wind Swift Clan spoke, a mocking laugh came from Ye Xin’s mouth, as she stepped in front of the three Elders and stared directly at the opponent.

The leader of the Wind Swift Clan, after staring at Ye Xin for quite a while, said, “Little girl, if you want to stay alive, hand over the guy who killed the Purple Demon Fish.”

These words made Ye Xin’s expression turn ice cold, and she suddenly turned her head to look in the direction of the elder of the Green Spirit Clan.

“It wasn’t him—it was a spy of the Wind Swift Clan, who saw our young master deliver the final blow that killed the Purple Demon Fish, and saw him severely injured, falling through the sky,” Zhou Yian hurriedly said to Ye Xin at the same time.

Hearing Zhou Yian’s explanation, Ye Xin’s face relaxed somewhat.

At this time, the elder of the Green Spirit Clan had been soaked in sweat, the look from Ye Xin earlier had made him feel like he had fallen into an icy cellar, as if he would vanish from this world at any moment.

That fear was something that surged from the bottom of his heart.

“How did you know?”

“Earlier, he himself mentioned that a spy from their clan witnessed the incident,” Zhou Yian quickly answered upon Ye Xin’s inquiry.

For some reason, he could clearly feel an immense pressure emanating from Ye Xin.

Fang Shuiwen, standing beside them, realized after a moment of observing Ye Xin what the source of this overwhelming force coming from her truly was.

The Ye Xin standing before the three elders was no longer the diminutive girl they knew but was the Empress of a great Empire, standing beside Lin Qian, a woman at the pinnacle of the Empire!

Confronting the Wind Swift Clan’s Ye Xin was the Empress of the Huaxia Empire!

“Our Wind Swift Clan’s territory has actually seen the arrival of a member of the Human Clan capable of slaying the Purple Demon Fish, truly a cause for unrest,” the leader of the Wind Swift Clan said, looking down at Ye Xin and the others, “If we do not take advantage of his injury to kill him, then once he has healed, what he might do on our clan’s land is anyone’s guess.”

“Hand him over—but regardless of whether you do or not, you are all in a deathtrap today,” the leader of the Wind Swift Clan declared arrogantly, standing proudly aloft, as the aura of the Third Level of the Transcendence Realm burst forth from within him.

At the same time, the auras of the Transcendence Realm First Level emerged from the three members of the Wind Swift Clan behind him, their gazes filled with undisguised murderous intent as they looked below, slightly licking their lips and revealing a bloodthirsty demeanor.

“A deathtrap?” Ye Xin looked at the leader of the Wind Swift Clan, her starlight white dress becoming visible, and the starlight sword forming in her hand, which she firmly grasped.

A phoenix cry echoed leisurely from within Ye Xin, as she was bathed in the pale blue glow of starlight soul flame, with the star-tailed Lan Feng appearing and circling around her body.

At the First Level of Transcendence Realm, the aura surrounding Ye Xin took shape, causing a look of surprise to appear on the faces of the Wind Swift Clan leader and his companions—they could clearly see that she was extremely young, not yet thirty years old.

So young, and already at the Transcendence Realm?

This was truly unbelievable!

“Even being at the First Level of Transcendence Realm wouldn’t amount to much…” the leader of the Wind Swift Clan had barely finished speaking when, to his horror, he discovered that the Human Clan woman had appeared in front of him with no warning, her starlight sword slashing mercilessly towards his neck.

This strike aimed to decapitate him.

Boom!

However, the strike was ultimately blocked, and as the repelled leader of the Wind Swift Clan looked up, his face looking dreadful, he saw Ye Xin, who had also stabilized herself in the distance, “Who are you?”

Ye Xin swung her starlight sword and looked up proudly, “The Empress of the Huaxia Empire!”
