Chapter 1138 Conquest of the Heavenly Court
Chen Cai and Sima Rou also looked on, only to see two figures swiftly approaching from the shore.
Both of these figures were quite delicate and attractive, exhibiting the grace of true beauties. They moved at an astonishing speed, arriving at the tower in the blink of an eye.
“My beloved!”
“Liu… Liu Yi…”
Both women could not help but exclaim in surprise and joy upon seeing Liu Yi.
“So it is you! I thought you had perished!”
Ye Hanshuang couldn’t help but embrace Liu Yi, “My love, I’ve missed you terribly!”
“You… as long as you’re safe…”
Luo Xiaoxiao wiped tears from her eyes, “I really thought something happened to you… We searched for thirty years without finding you…”
Liu Yi comforted the two women, and then introduced Sima Rou to them.
Ye Hanshuang seemed unfazed, not minding that Liu Yi had other women in his life. After all, she had once wanted Liu Yi all to herself, but her infatuation was shattered by him, and she had let go completely since then.
Luo Xiaoxiao’s expression, on the other hand, became somewhat melancholic and sorrowful.
“After thirty years, to what level have your powers progressed?” Liu Yi asked, not having the time to attend to Luo Xiaoxiao’s feelings, as he had more pressing matters to deal with.
“Transcendent!” Chen Cai declared proudly, “How about that, boss? I’ve improved rapidly, haven’t I?”
“Not bad.”
To grow from the level of over twenty star spindles to a transcendent in just thirty years, Chen Cai’s talent was indeed quite high.
“Enough with the boasting,” Ye Hanshuang said, folding her arms and giving Chen Cai a cold glance. “In these thirty years, how many trips have you made to the Asura Realm?”
Liu Yi’s face twitched, realizing that Chen Cai had exploited the time-dilation bug in the Asura Realm. However, becoming a transcendent would be quite helpful to him.
“Ye Hanshuang, what about you?”
“I’m also a transcendent,” she replied. “I could have reached the first stage of heaven, but I spent so much time searching for you that I didn’t have much time for cultivation, so I only managed to become a transcendent.”
“Already quite impressive…” Liu Yi gave her a thumbs-up, then turned to Luo Xiaoxiao. “Xiaoxiao, how about you?”
Luo Xiaoxiao blushed, too embarrassed to speak.
“It’s fine, just say it!” Chen Cai laughed, “Not everyone has our level of talent. Growing slowly is alright.”
“Xiaoxiao, tell us,” Liu Yi’s voice was gentle, “It’s okay if you’re not very strong. There will be plenty of time to cultivate in the future.”
“My power…” Luo Xiaoxiao’s voice was barely audible as she slowly revealed, “It’s at the third stage of heaven…”
“What?!” Chen Cai’s eyes nearly popped out of his head!
The third stage of heaven! In a mere thirty years, this girl’s power had grown from the celestial level to the third stage of heaven!
This was simply unfathomable!
“Are you… a monster?” Ye Hanshuang also looked at Luo Xiaoxiao with slanted eyes, her expression filled with astonishment.
Liu Yi could only give her two thumbs-up, his admiration beyond words!
“Alright, so Xiaoxiao has become a formidable force as well.” Liu Yi felt a surge of excitement, “Next, we should ascend to the Heavenly Court. Brothers… ah, sisters, the things we’ve lost should be reclaimed today.”
“Do you plan to overthrow the Heavenly Court?” Ye Hanshuang asked.
“Yes,” Liu Yi nodded, “The corrupt reign of the Heavenly Court has lasted far too long.”
A cold glint flickered in Liu Yi’s eyes, “It’s time to put an end to it.”
“Alright, I’ll follow you.”
“Me too, boss!”
“Xiaoxiao, what about you?”
“I’ll also follow Brother Liu Yi…”
Although Luo Xiaoxiao had some small grievances in her heart, she decided to follow Liu Yi’s footsteps.
“Alright, let’s set off.”
Liu Yi looked up at the sky, his gaze piercing through layers of clouds to see the Heavenly Court floating far-far above.
The Immortal Realm wasn’t located in the familiar atmosphere known to people, but rather in another world.
“But how do we get up there?” Luo Xiaoxiao also looked up at the sky, “The Immortal Realm has a ban on flying!”
“A ban on flying?” Liu Yi smiled, “That’s useless against me.”
With that, Liu Yi grabbed Luo Xiaoxiao with one hand and Sima Rou with the other.
“Everyone, hold hands.”
Following Liu Yi’s command, they all joined hands.
“What are we going to do?” Ye Hanshuang asked curiously, to which Liu Yi smiled at her, “Have a pleasant journey.”
As they spoke, their surroundings shifted instantaneously, and they arrived directly at the South Heavenly Gate!
“Instantaneous movement?” Ye Hanshuang was somewhat surprised, “My movement spells have been nullified, but yours still work?”
“That’s because mine doesn’t fall within the category of spells,” Liu Yi laughed, “It seems someone has come to welcome us.”
As he spoke, several South Heavenly Gate guards had already surrounded them.
“Who are you, daring to trespass on the South Heavenly Gate?”
“Surrender immediately!”
The guards shouted.
“Chen Cai, it’s up to you.”
Liu Yi didn’t want to deal with these small fries himself.
“Leave it to me, boss.”
Chen Cai smirked, then stepped forward.
He exhaled a black smoke from his mouth, shrouding himself. In the blink of an eye, a four-meter-tall giant bear emerged from the black smoke.
Liu Yi couldn’t help but cover his forehead.
Damn, a black bear is a black bear, but what the hell is that half-meter-long “stick” between your legs…
Chen Cai, you have no shame…
Liu Yi didn’t want to look anymore.
The girls also instinctively turned their heads away, and Sima Rou even cursed, “Pervert!”
“Die, all of you!”
Chen Cai said, swinging his huge palm-like hand, sending the guards flying.
One of the guards collided with a pillar of the South Heavenly Gate, immediately shattering it.
The gate of the South Heavenly Gate collapsed.
“Intruders!”
“First-level alert!”
A series of roaring sounds came from the South Heavenly Gate.
Numerous celestial soldiers and generals rushed towards them, and Liu Yi, with his arms folded, coldly observed the approaching massive army.
“Hanshuang, you take the next shot,” Liu Yi whispered.
“Alright, I can’t wait any longer,” Ye Hanshuang said and released an Asura spell.
She leaped into the air and landed in the midst of the army. As her foot hit the ground, the power of Asura instantly erupted!
“Boom, boom, boom!”
A black ring of light bloomed and instantly transformed into a black whirlpool!
The whirlpool, nearly a hundred meters in diameter, swept countless celestial soldiers and generals into it, turning them into fragments!
“Ordinary celestial soldiers, stand down!” Liu Yi shouted, “This is a personal grudge between me and the upper echelons of the Heavenly Court! If you don’t want to die, leave immediately!”
Upon hearing Liu Yi’s words, many celestial soldiers backed down.
The opponents were too strong for them to resist, and they didn’t want to die in vain for the Heavenly Court!
“Who dares to challenge the Heavenly Court?”
A red-robed child flew out and spotted Liu Yi at a glance.
“Hmph, I wondered who it was, turns out it’s you again!”
The child, stepping on Wind Fire Wheels and wielding a Fire-Tipped Spear, was none other than Nezha.
Nezha transformed into his three-headed, six-armed form and lunged toward Liu Yi.
“It’s the Third Prince!”
“Great, we’re safe now!” The celestial soldiers felt relieved.
“Get lost!”
Liu Yi remained in place, merely extending a palm into the void.
“Bang!”
Nezha’s body was struck by Liu Yi’s Illusion Palm in mid-air, turning into a streak of red light, like a meteor, and disappearing into the horizon in an instant.
“What?”
“That was Nezha!”
The celestial soldiers and generals couldn’t believe how easily Nezha had been defeated.
Liu Yi strode forward, and the celestial soldiers and generals, frightened, parted into two lines, not daring to approach, watching Liu Yi enter the Heavenly Court with wide eyes.
The Heavenly Court was filled with breathtaking scenery, and Luo Xiaoxiao was amazed.
“It’s so beautiful here…”
She couldn’t help but say.
“Yes, and soon it will be ours,” Liu Yi’s words were filled with confidence, determined to conquer the Heavenly Court this time.
“Heavenly Court’s fairies! Chen Cai is here!”
Chen Cai had been following Liu Yi and the others in the form of a giant bird and bear, and Liu Yi didn’t even want to look at him!
This guy, acting like he’s taking a stroll in the Heavenly Court with his pets!
Under the “escort” of a group of celestial soldiers and generals, Liu Yi and the others quickly appeared before the Golden Throne Hall.
The entire entrance to the hall was filled with celestial soldiers and generals, as well as many high-ranking immortals, who stared at Liu Yi as if facing a formidable enemy.
“I don’t want to kill innocent people,” Liu Yi said, “If you don’t want to die, stand aside.”
“Liu Yi, you are quite bold!” Li Jing, holding a pagoda, stood in front of the hall and scolded loudly, “Do you know where you are? How dare you be so arrogant here!”
“Of course I know, I don’t think I’m lost.”
Liu Yi laughed and said, “After all this time, you’re still as fierce as ever.”
Li Jing cursed, “Liu Yi, you demon, today is your doom! Listen up, everyone! Kill Liu Yi and be promoted three ranks! Receive a three-thousand-year-old Flat Peach and one of the Supreme Elder’s immortal pills!”
As the saying goes, great rewards bring forth the brave. With Li Jing’s words, the celestial soldiers and generals regained their courage and roared as they charged toward Liu Yi and his companions.
“I’ll handle this,” Liu Yi said and snapped his fingers.
“Netherworld Servant Technique.”
Suddenly, clusters of green ghostly flames ignited, and from within them emerged countless lantern-carrying imps.
But this time, the lantern-carrying imps had changed. Each of them stood close to two meters tall and held a staff in their hands, with a burning ghost lantern atop each staff.
These creatures were evolved from a game Liu Yi had played before, World of Warcraft. He directly summoned tens of thousands of lantern-carrying imps, who waved their staves in unison.
Green fireballs were hurled from the ghost lanterns, exploding in all directions.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
Green fire erupted everywhere, and the Heavenly Court’s soldiers were sent flying, losing their helmets and discarding their armor!
“There’s more,” Liu Yi said, stretching out his hand and summoning five thousand axe-wielding Bull Demons.
But this time, instead of giant axes, the Bull Demons held Gatling guns made of black, dark energy!
“What the hell… What are these?” One celestial soldier, brandishing his spear, ran to the front line and, upon seeing these black gun muzzles, was momentarily dumbstruck.
