Maiden Galaxy

Shatuo Star Kingdom, main Star Field, Chuyue Star Field.

Zhuye City.

Back garden, a stream under a small bridge surrounded by fake mountains, a soft song and wonderful dance, drunk on golden millet.

Inside the garden, half-naked female entertainers were in the middle of dancing through the bamboo. A woman whose eyes were filled with an ice-cold air despite her weak appearance was surrounded by the dancers. She lazily lay atop a couch, and in her embrace was an inconceivably beautiful woman, who was gently peeling a long'yan.

The sparkling and moist fruit took shape under the woman's slender fingers and then sent into the other woman's mouth, bringing endless pleasure. Even the woman who peeled it was jealous.

Among the Sixteen Star Marquis, Heavenly Star "Flying Tiger" Li Keyong was currently in the middle of aesthetic appreciation. Although women who inherited Star Names possessed beauty that surpassed the average person's, this did not signify that they did not pursue the admiration of beauty. At least to Flying Tiger Li Keyong, she was aptly described as a Star Marquis who had fallen into decadence.

"Master Mother is truly kind, to be able to stay together with Your Servant. Is it truly alright to have Cunxu and the others go on the subjugation?" The woman attending to Li Keyong had a slender face, a small mouth, and a soft, flowing tone. Each of her words were like the notes of a pipa.

"Ai, as a Star Marquis, something as crude as fighting and killing ought to be left to the Adopted Daughters, Xiaolian. Just indulge with Me." Li Keyong giggled and stroked the girl's white, swan-like throat.

Her seemingly fragile skin surpassed the finest silk, captivating Li Keyong somewhat.

The woman being intimate with her was one of Star World's Seven Beauties, "Delicate Beauty of Water," Feng Xiaolian. Her every smile and frown, every glance and look made Li Keyong's heart love her so much.

"Yes, Master Mother's adopted daughters are unrivalled in the world. Cunxu and Cunxiao are both first-rate existences. Even the Heavenly Tang Star Kingdom's Li Shimin is envious. To have such adopted daughters, Master Mother truly has nothing to worry about." Feng Xiaolian charmingly said.

Li Keyong's eyes nevertheless lacked any pride. On the contrary, they were a bit displeased. The hand stroking the girl's throat added slightly more power.

Which made Feng Xiaolian feel a bit of pain.

"Do not speak of them any further, you spoil the mood." Li Keyong forcefully kissed Feng Xiaolian's lips and sucked their sweetness.

All of a sudden, a powerful aura covered the garden. This air made the dancing women stop their movements.

Li Keyong raised her head and spotted a little girl above her.

That eight or nine year old girl had the air of someone strong, and she stared at Li Keyong with a humbling gaze as one might when looking at a weakling. 

"Huh?" Li Keyong was stupefied.

"Master Mother, who is she, so rude!" Feng Xiaolian wrinkled her brow.

The girl sneered, her sun and moon pupils side by side.

"Zhu Jiujiu, why have you come to My place." Li Keyong's tone was a bit worried.

"Huh, this is the Zhu Yuanzhang that Master Mother wanted to suppress?" Feng Xiaolian said in astonishment.

"Awfully cheerful, are you not? I truly envy your freedom." Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was increasingly murderous: "Never had you needed to ponder achievements and or great undertakings!"

"When the sun sets on you, O' visionary hero, where will you live if not in comfort! Ha, ha, Zhu Jiujiu, I know your ambitions are far-reaching, and I can help you." Li Keyong's tone was a bit fawning.

"I came here to have you help me." Zhu Yuanzhang disdainfully said.

"Speak."

"Hand your Star Marquis Seal and Star Energy to me, become a part of my Great Ming's power. Then you will not have wasted your Li Keyong Star Name on a life of comfort in vain."

"What are you saying?"

Zhu Jiujiu cruelly grinned. Her sun and moon pupils combined, and the power of the Great Ming instantly covered a range of a hundred li.

"I am saying…you should die!"

"Cunxiao!!" Li Keyong screamed at the top of her lungs.

A woman arrived before Li Keyong riding a gale, ripping apart the Great Ming's power with unstoppable force. The woman gripped a large iron spear. The spear had a large number of barbs, like the vicious fangs of a wild animal, and it exuded a free baleful aura.

"King Yu's Divine Spear" was also famous in Star World.

The woman's Star Name was Heavenly Valiant Star "Flying Tiger Adopted Daughter" Li Cunxiao, second only to Li Cunxu among the Thirteen Adopted Daughters. Her martial force was exceptional, and she was possessed of enormous bravery. Even Lord Overlooking All Under Heaven revered her. Li Cunxu and Li Cunxiao were Li Keyong's left and right hands. Their powers were outstanding, their brilliance outshining Li Keyong's, and it was for this reason that Li Keyong was so degenerate.

But Li Keyong always kept Li Cunxiao at her side as a guard.

Among the Sixteen Star Marquis, she was often met with comments and mockery.

Li Cunxiao was like an emotionless machine, her eyes vacant and apathetic as she emitted killing intent.

Suddenly, Earthly Qi erupted from the ground. An energy covered the area, surprisingly binding Li Cunxiao and Li Keyong's Star Energies. Li Keyong was taken aback. A woman in yellow clothes manifested from the Earthly Qi. "Who are you?" Li Keyong was astounded.

The yellow-clothed woman tapped her finger. The Earthly Qi wrapped the entire rear garden in primordial chaos.

Zhu Yuanzhang drew in a sharp breath when she saw her appear.

She spread her palms, and the two Sun and Moon Dragons soared. This was her Star Weapon, "True Dragon Bright Mirror." The two True Dragons soared around each other, continuing their fusion. Just a little more, and they could combine into the Great Ming.

Li Cunxiao attacked with all her might, piercing through the cosmos and starry rivers to use her Heaven Rank.

"Break!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang brandished her fists.

The Sun and Moon Dragons slammed the ground.

The ground churned, and the stars disintegrated.

This moment, another Star Marquis fell.

…

Shi Dao'an's "Karma Reversal" controlled the saber-light of Chen Mo's No Snow Under Heaven. The Saha True Qi poured into the saber-light, and subsequently, it concentrated into an even sharper sword-qi under her fingers.

Chen Mo was trapped by the Saha Eternity. Lotus flowers bloomed, and polo flowers withered.

The Four Symbols broke the incoming sword-light. Chen Mo calmly looked at Shi Dao'an: "Senior, are you clinging to dogma?"

Shi Dao'an's expression was calm, unflappable, a gaze of exceptional sagacity. The Saha Eternity made moving even an inch difficult for Chen Mo, and his Star Energy was also useless here. Chen Mo sensed that the fluctuations of a Heaven Rank approach from Mount Hua. He knew the situation there was already very dire. No matter how much he respected the woman in front of him, right now, he needed to defeat her.

Chen Mo settled his mind. The Bodhi Tree grew and faced the Saha Divine Tree. One was of green light that illuminated the nine firmaments while the other was a Buddhist light that covered the universe. The "way" in Chen Mo's mind combined with Buddhism, Daoism, the School of Mind, and even the School of the Military and more. After receiving Zhuangzi's legacy, they already were completely matched against the founder of the Shi School.

The Four Symbols appeared in the four directions. Chen Mo entered the "Spring Snow Seeping Into The Land" Realm, and immediately, the Saha World and Eternal Pure Land abruptly entered a cold winter. The ice-cold chill permeated this warm paradise bit by bit.

The lotus treasure trees were frozen solid, becoming ice sculptures as a blizzard descended.

All of a sudden, a thousand li was covered in ice, ten thousand in snow.

Shi Dao'an's calm face finally showed astonishment.

"What is this?" Shi Dao'an had never sensed such vast and awe-inspiring intimidation. It was boundless and cold, freezing the might of Heaven and Earth, making everything become miniscule. Gods, demons, immortals, and buddhas alike all became dust.

Three Worlds Split Apart, Without Ultimate True Qi!

Chen Mo's slash was free and limitless. Even if the Saha Eternity frozen by the Spring Snow Realm was the result of Yang Guang and Shi Dao'an's combined efforts, its might was already waning. Under the power of the Without Ultimate True Qi and two Heaven Ranks, this enormous Saha Pure Land finally cracked, like an ice sculpture fracturing. Thereupon, the lotus flowers withered, the treasure pagoda disintegrated, and the Saha World collapsed inch by inch.

Shi Dao'an was completely unable to ward off Chen Mo's Book Of Changes, Spring Snow, Three Worlds Split Apart, and Without Ultimate True Qi. The woman's Mercy And Five Benefits resisted in front of her with all its might, yet it still was defeated.

Yang Guang and Huo Qubing were also astounded by Chen Mo's power. Seeing the surrounding Saha Trees were frozen, Yang Guang was simply in disbelief.

"Why does a man like you have a power like this."

The corner of Huo Qubing's mouth frivolously curled. The Heaven And Earth Fortune Spear pointed towards Yang Guang: "Better worry about your own life first. Her Majesty said that should you rebel, she has already ordered Your Servant to kill your Star Name and retrieve your Star Marquis Seal."

"With just you alone?" Yang Guang was indignant.

"Just me!"

Huo Qubing's words left no room for any compromise. Her spear thrust towards Yang Guang like an aurora from primordial chaos. Even Chen Mo's ten thousand li world of ice melted under her spear.

It was like power in the world, nay, no power since the inception of Star World could hinder the freedom of Huo Qubing's spear.

Astonishingly, this was Heaven Rank – Primordial Chaos Final Law!

White Steed Under Heaven's Heaven Rank simply defied the laws of the world.

Yang Guang's Purple Rose True Qi was already at its end. She and Shi Dao'an's combination Heaven Rank had been broken by Chen Mo and could not pose a threat to the strongest genius Star name in Star World's history. The situation was resolved the moment the Saha was frozen.

Primordial Chaos Final Law's spear-light punched through Yang Guang's body.

It froze all of the girl's ambitions and burned all of her resentment. Yang Guang ahd never felt so at peace.

As it turned out, the feeling of a heart like still waters was so beautiful. Why did she not learn it back then.

Chen Mo arrived next to her at this time and witnessed the glimmer in her eyes dim like a candle.

Only in this last moment did Chen Mo notice that she was only seven or eight, an immature young girl.

But age never held any sort of significance in Star World.

Heavenly Sui Star "Golden Age Tyrant" Yang Guang, Starfall.

The Star Weapon of a Purple Rose Star Name would not be left behind, and Buddhist Stupa Under Heaven very quickly dissipated.

Huo Qubing's expression was calm, neither sad nor happy. She looked at Chen Mo, her gaze somewhat contemplative. She tapped her finger and grabbed Yang Guang's Star Marquis Seal.

"Your Servant is Chen Mo, many thanks to the lady for assisting Mount Hua." Chen Mo cupped his fist.

"Your Servant is returning a favor to Her Majesty, no need to thank me. Will you not kill Shi Dao'an?" Huo Qubing glanced at the heavily injured founder of the Shi School.

Chen Mo shook his head.

Huo QUbing was indifferent. At any rate, she had only come to stop Yang Guang and retrieve her seal. Whatever happened afterwards did not concern her. The Saha Eternity vanished, and the two were expelled from the void, and they prepared to handle Yang Guang's Nine ELders Of Sui.

They discovered to their surprise that the Four Symbols Formation had already trapped Han QInhu, Heruo Bi, Zhang Xutuo, Shi Wansui and the others.

In the void sea of stars, the Sui Ye Star Kingdom's battleships were enveloped in a mysterious aura. THey seemed to have lose the power to resist.

The Cloud Terrace's Twenty-eight Star Generals were in a battle formation, arranged like the stars.

"You were entangled with Bai Ling for so long, you have lost a bit of your touch." Huo QUbing smirked.

In the center of the formation, radiating brightl,y there was a woman standing quietly. Her appearance made the Cloud Terrace's Star Array become even more frightening. Even one as powerful as Shi Wansui was powerless to fight back after using a Heaven Rank.

Chen Mo knowingly smiled.

Who else could she be.

"Son Of Heaven' Liu Houxiu.
