The once untouchable and revered Empress Xingchen was now naked and hanging, her vital areas barely covered, revealing a body covered in whip marks and dried blood, barely clinging to life.
Ming Zhitian's heart turned to ice.
He quickly took out several Hundred Grade Pills, fed them to her, and immediately poured his spiritual energy into her, but there was no improvement. She was… too severely injured.
Just as Ming Zhitian was bewildered, the encyclopedia in his mind vaguely recalled ancient legends of the Kun Peng's blood being used to save immortals, by infusing the essence of their souls into diluted blood. He decided to try it.
He then bit his finger, creating a cut, and let his diamond blood drip onto Empress Xingchen's lips.
A miracle… Empress Xingchen's pale lips instantly turned red, and she regained her breath.
"Someone's here." Ming Zhitian sensed an approaching presence and quickly concealed his aura, waiting to see who had committed such a vicious act.
"Well, well? Still tough, aren't you? Not dead yet?" Empress Xuan Yao looked at the still weak Empress Xingchen with a playful gaze.
Lord Sun Moon said, "Beauty, if you hadn't beaten her to such a severe state, I could have savored her now. You should be punished."
Empress Xuan Yao prepared herself for immediate whipping. She closed her eyes, praying that Lord Sun Moon wouldn't accidentally injure her eyes.
Lord Sun Moon raised his hand, then lowered it: "I won't let you off so easily. Tonight, we'll try your first time from behind!"
Empress Xuan Yao responded gracefully, "This servant will wash up and await your pleasure."
"Divine Luo Realm Triple, Divine Luo Realm Seventh?" Ming Zhitian pondered in the corner. kuAiδugg
Just as Lord Sun Moon extended his lecherous hand to caress Empress Xingchen's snow-white skin marked with blood streaks, Ming Zhitian's killing intent surged.
At that moment, Lord Sun Moon's sharp senses instantly detected an inexplicable killing intent, causing him to retreat guardedly: "Who?!"
"Boom!" Ming Zhitian's fist struck!
The two quickly dodged, and the floor was instantly smashed with a gaping hole.
Then, the ropes were cut, and Empress Xingchen's delicate body fell into Ming Zhitian's arms. He still felt an unbearable ache in his heart and immediately summoned women's clothing from his storage bag to cover her.
Empress Xingchen's consciousness was still hazy. She knew someone had come to rescue her but couldn't see who it was, drifting in a daze.
Lord Sun Moon recognized the newcomer. It was just a young man in the Divine Luo Realm First. He sneered, "Kid, how did you get in here? Do you know the consequences of trespassing into my Divine Emperor's Holy Sect?"
Ming Zhitian glared at him, not answering. He gently set down the frail Empress Xingchen and retorted, "Tell me, who did this?"
Empress Xuan Yao felt a pang of guilt, but with Lord Sun Moon as her backer, she became defiant: "How dare you! Haven't you seen Lord Sun Moon? Kneel!"
"Guards!" Lord Sun Moon roared.
Immediately, over a dozen guards rushed in. The captain of the guards bowed, "Greetings… Lord Divine Monarch, what are your orders?"
Lord Sun Moon slapped him hard, knocking out a tooth, "You scoundrel! How can outsiders infiltrate without you knowing? What are you good for, huh?!"
The captain of the guards, dazed, looked at Ming Zhitian: "I… Lord Divine Monarch, I truly didn't know."
Lord Sun Moon's rage intensified: "Useless trash! What are you waiting for? Seize him!"
The guards then surged forward, each summoning a Profound Grade magical artifact, intending to take down the intruder, Ming Zhitian, in one fell swoop.
Ming Zhitian summoned the "Book of Swords," opened it, and a Seven-Step Flying Sword shot out at high speed! It instantly cleaved through the more than a dozen guards in the Divine Luo Realm First.
