many beautiful girls in our school anyway. Can’t they go bother someone else instead of coming here to compete with us...""That's right, get this bastard out of here!"Hearing the heckling, Xiong Hu s...Chapter 1466 - I Want to Buy the Imperial Palace

"Then let's buy it!" Ji Qingying now understands a little more about reason and propriety. She knows that this place is not her Jie Dynasty, where everything belongs to her. She also realizes that to get what she wants, she needs to spend money.

"Your Majesty, we don't have enough money right now," Anxin patiently explained.

"Then just ask my husband for it; he has a lot of money, doesn't he" Ji Qingying pouted.

"Your Majesty, let's go home first and then call Xia Tian later," Anxin suggested softly.

"Alright, let's do that then." After some thought, Ji Qingying agreed.

Anxin breathed a little easier. This Empress was not easy to please; though she seemed naive and knew nothing about anything, when it came to certain matters, she was very stubborn, and no one could change her mind.

The two of them walked out of the school gate, where Ji Qingying's car, which she had impulsively bought over a month ago with great enthusiasm, was parked at the entrance. They got into the car and drove in another direction of the city.

Half an hour later, they arrived at a villa that was actually quite spacious but which Ji Qingying always felt was too small for her. She thought it was simply much smaller than the imperial palace she had known before.

This villa used to belong to You Tiance, who passed away suddenly a month ago after his son, You Anfu, died unexpectedly. After his death, it was discovered that he had committed numerous criminal acts. Although no punishment could be imposed on him now that he was dead, most of his property, including all the villas he owned, were confiscated and auctioned off.

Ji Qingying happened to fancy this villa and tried to buy it. In the end, she got the villa for free without paying a single cent, but she didn't know who had given it to her or cared about it; all that mattered was that the house was now hers.

"Be at ease, be at ease! Quickly call your husband!" Pulling Anxin into the living room, Ji Qingying urged.

"Why should I call him" A voice joined in, and suddenly Summer appeared in the living room.

"Haha, Husband, you're here! Give me money; I want to buy a palace!" Seeing Summer, Ji Qingying immediately became cheerful. She first hugged him and then demanded money right away.

Summer casually held Ji Qingying but turned his head towards Anxin with some confusion in his voice, asking: "Buy a palace Is there any palace for sale here"

"Your Majesty finds this villa too small and wants to buy Xi Du Jiao Da [a university] as her palace," Anxin softly explained.

“Oh, I see. It’s not impossible to buy it, but since we won't be living here anymore in the future, buying it wouldn’t make much sense,” Summer casually replied.

"It does have a use! I want it to be my palace and my palace can’t be too small!" Ji Qingying pouted.

"It's fine, I'll take you back to Jianghai City in a few days. I have several islands there, which are definitely bigger than your palace."

"Jianghai City" Ji Qingying pondered for a moment and then shook her head, "I don't think I can go there!"

"You can go there, in just a few days," Xia Tian said with certainty. Then, he suddenly changed the topic, "Hey, dead demoness, tell me where you are now I can help boost your cultivation to the Tribulation Transcendence stage!"

"I've already said that I'm not a demoness..." Ji Qingying seemed unhappy but before she could finish her sentence, her voice changed abruptly. It was still melodious but cold, "I'm at the snow mountain."

"Oh, I'll be there right away," Xia Tian said and looked at Anxin, "Take care of her for a few days first, don't let her wander around. In a few days, I will come back to find you both and take you all to Jianghai City."

"Alright," Anxin nodded in agreement. As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Tian vanished.

A moment ago, Xia Tian was still in the rather hot city of Xi Dou, but in the next second, he had already arrived at the icy peak of the snow mountain. For a cultivator who has reached the Tribulation Transcendence stage, even thousands of miles away is just an instant travel distance. A cultivator with Tribulation Transcendence cultivation can be considered half a celestial being.

Just a second ago, Ji Qingying was still standing proudly at the peak of the snow mountain looking down below. In her impression, Xia Tian was still in Xi Dou city, just hugging her clone, but now she discovered that Xia Tian had already stood before her. This left her feeling bewildered and then shocked.

Ji Qingying looked at Xia Tian without speaking, merely staring at him. However, in this moment, she realized that although Xia Tian still appeared to be the same Xia Tian with a somewhat evil smile on his face and eyes that seemed to strip away everything, she knew that he was no longer the same Xia Tian as before; there had been a qualitative change.

It was a transformation from an imposing aura to a dominant state of mind. When she first met Xia Tian, she could look down on him with an air of superiority. Even after she had tricked him, she still held the upper hand and treated him as she pleased. Afterwards, every event that occurred between them almost always saw her in control; she was the high-and-mighty empress, while he, despite receiving her favor, could only be a mere queen.

But now, she couldn’t look down on him anymore. Even though he hadn’t done anything, she still felt his strength. At this moment, it seemed to her that he was the high-and-mighty emperor, while she was but a consort waiting for his favor.

"You… What cultivation level are you at now" Ji Qingying finally couldn't hold back and asked.

"What do you think" Xia Tian laughed as he slowly reached out to cup her chin. "Your skin seems to have gotten paler, huh!"

“Why did you come here” Ji Qingying found that she seemed unable to resist him and couldn’t muster the will to fight back.

"Well, of course I came to enjoy your company," Xia Tian said in a leisurely manner as he slowly untied her sash.

Ji Qingying didn't struggle or evade; she let Xia Tian undress her.

Finally, Xia Tian laid her down on the snow. She then heard his exclamation: "Your skin really is as pale as snow."

Atop the snowy mountain peak, their passion burned like fire. Ji Qingying couldn't help but recall that night in the forest; this time, however, she was the one being favored, while Xia Tian was the high-and-mighty emperor who had full control over her body and everything else.

Ji Qingying gradually lost herself until she heard a voice in her ear, saying, "Remember the incantation below."

Ji Qingying finally came to her senses. After hearing the incantation, she immediately realized that it was an incantation similar to her Ji family secret technique. However, unlike hers which required more stringent conditions and could force someone to give up their energy regardless of their willingness, this new incantation had lower requirements but would make it difficult to absorb energy if the other party resisted.

"Did you remember If you did, start reciting the incantation. I will supply some energy to you." After a while, Xia Tian spoke again.

"I remembered," Ji Qingying’s voice was unusually gentle. She then began reciting the spell, and soon her body started receiving an influx of energy, causing her cultivation level to rapidly increase until it reached the initial stage of Fusion.

"You want to perform the Heavens-defying Seventh Needle on me" Ji Qingying suddenly understood something.

"That's correct. But not now." Xia Tian replied and continued his favor towards her.

Unbeknownst to them, time had passed until midnight.

Around the peak of the snow mountain, a series of thunderous sounds suddenly echoed in the sky; after nine heavenly thunders fell, it marked the birth of another realm-transcending cultivator.

"It's really hard to imagine all this." Ji Qingying murmured. The cold and aloof empress now lay very gently in Xia Tian’s arms. This powerful woman was finally conquered by someone even more powerful than her. In fact, both she and Ye Yumei were the same type of person—there are no weaklings in their world; perhaps the weak might be fortunate enough to be with them, but they would never be able to conquer them.

"I told you, I am omnipotent," Xia Tian said indifferently.

Ji Qingying softly acknowledged. She was starting to believe his words now. Before coming here, she was merely a Nascent Soul cultivator, but now, she had crossed into the Tribulation Transcendence realm. If she were to return to the Divine Cloud Continent at this moment, she would become the first in her era and unmatched by anyone else in the history of cultivation—a true peerless figure over all of the Divine Cloud Continent!

"Why have you been staying here" Xia Tian asked as he spoke.

"This place is the entrance to the formation array." Ji Qingying didn't hide anything. "Once that side’s formation array activates, an entrance will appear here for entering the formation array. Neither Yuenan City nor Xi Du have true entrances; therefore, we must wait here if we want to return."

"So you're saying, if Heavenly Questioner were to come over to this world, he would first show up here" Xia Tian pondered and asked.

"If the formation array on the Divine Cloud Continent activates, a grand hall will appear here with an entrance leading into it. However, one can only enter but not exit from there. Inside the hall, there are four other doors through which people would be transported to different places in the four cardinal directions," Ji Qingying explained carefully to Xia Tian. "That being said, if we keep waiting outside, Master wouldn’t appear before us. Of course, once the formation array activates and we enter promptly, we can intercept and kill him inside the hall."

"You have to wait for the activation of that side’s formation array to be able to go back, right" Xia Tian asked again.

"That's correct," Ji Qingying nodded.

"Is it possible that the fool Heavenly Questioner is too afraid to come over here" Xia Tian muttered to himself. "It has been so long; if he really wanted to come, shouldn’t he have arrived by now"Zhao Yujie's tone was a bit strange, seemingly different from how she used to speak with Xia Tian before. However, Xia Tian thought it quite normal, considering they hadn't seen each other for around...
