At this moment, Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable never imagined that these former fellow daoists would betray him directly.
"Hmph!"
Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable snorted coldly, "You all remember this, if you are not on the same boat as this Immortal Venerable today, this Immortal Venerable will no longer help you in the future!"
"No matter!"
Immediately, someone said, "We have surrendered to the Empress. Even if something happens, naturally the Empress will help!"
"That's right!"
Biyao sneered, "Since they have surrendered to me, then I will protect them. You don't need to worry about this!"
As soon as this was said, although Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable was angry, he could only leave.
However, Biyao said, "Stop!"
"What do you want?"
He looked at Biyao angrily.
Biyao said just now, "You have committed a great disrespect towards me just now, and now you want to leave. How can it be so easy!"
What made Biyao angry was that Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable had actually asked her to hold a posthumous marriage with his son just now. Did he really think her empress's majesty was gone?
As soon as this was said, Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable immediately said, "If it's disrespect, it's disrespect. I advise you not to anger this Immortal Venerable, otherwise, this Immortal Venerable will directly join forces with Yao Xi!"
At this time, Biyao said disdainfully, "Join forces? Do you think I will give you another chance?"
With that, she walked directly towards Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable, obviously, the killing intent in her heart had reached its peak.
If it were any other Immortal Venerable on a normal day, they would have surrendered and pleaded guilty, perhaps even saving their lives.
But Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable was very stubborn. After all, his strength was not weak, and he was comparable to the already deceased Boshui Immortal Venerable.
He believed that even if he was not as good as Biyao, he would not die at her hands. Therefore, at this moment, he immediately said, "This Immortal Venerable's strength is unparalleled. Do you think you can defeat this Immortal Venerable!"
"Of course I'm not going to defeat you!"
Biyao sneered, "What I want is to kill you!"
"Just you?"
Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable immediately attacked, heading straight for Biyao. His powerful combat strength was fully displayed at this moment.
Biyao sneered and then attacked, engaging in a battle with Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable.
"Boom!"
After one blow, Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable, who had expected an even match, began to doubt his life because he was no match for Biyao in this blow.
Before he could react, Biyao attacked again, her powerful strength emanating, striking fear into people's hearts.
In just one blow, Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable was beaten in a sorry state.
"Puff!"
After Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable spat out a mouthful of blood, he became obedient.
"Empress, spare my life! I was unintentional just now. I hope the Empress will not hold grudges and spare my life!"
Although this was humiliating and shameful, completely ruining his reputation as Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable, he also knew that if he didn't surrender now, he would be the one to die.
Unexpectedly, Biyao said, "Do you think I am a benevolent saint? You will surely die, and I will not give you any chance!"
As soon as this was said, Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable's heart grew cold. He did not expect Biyao to be so unreasonable. It seemed he was destined to die.
Even at the point of being abandoned by everyone, he still tried to drag others down with him to put pressure on Biyao.
"Fellow colleagues, did you all see? She is going to kill a meritorious official like me for a man. If she can kill me today, she can kill you tomorrow! At this point, aren't you going to wake up?"
As soon as he said this, everyone remained indifferent. If Biyao had killed him for no reason, then they might have been angry.
But first, Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable's son had offended Yun Fan, and second, Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable had committed a great disrespect to Biyao.
Although Biyao was very brutal, they also knew that Biyao would not kill people without reason.
Therefore, at this time, no one stood on his side.
Before Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable could struggle again, Biyao said, "Die!"
In an instant, Biyao struck down, hitting Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable. Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable died on the spot.
At this moment, Biyao reclaimed Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable's power and said, "The coronation ceremony is tomorrow. You may all withdraw first!"
"Yes!"
After everyone withdrew, Biyao gave her power to Yun Fan.
"To me?"
Yun Fan asked, "You need power too. Why don't you absorb it yourself?"
Biyao said, "Master, I am already not far from breaking through, and it is not something that can be compensated by power alone! I need to obtain the Imperial Heart Seal!"
"Mm!"
Yun Fan nodded, knowing that Biyao had almost reached the Ninth Realm, but was still one step away. It was a flaw that power alone could not compensate for.
At this moment, he immediately bid farewell to Biyao, "I will go into seclusion to refine it first and will not accompany you!"
However, Biyao blocked his way, "Master, I have a better way to refine it, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort!"
"Really?"
Yun Fan was a little disbelieving. After all, in terms of speed, absorption was already terrifying, and refining speed was also terrifying.
He really couldn't imagine what could be faster than this.
Biyao said, "Of course it's true!"
"What method?"
Yun Fan asked curiously.
Biyao said, "Of course it's for us to combine. I will use my power to help you refine it!"
As soon as this was said, Yun Fan understood what she meant. To put it bluntly, Biyao was still plotting against him.
For this reason, he quickly said, "This is not necessary, I have a way!"
However, Biyao ignored him, "My dear, don't resist me anymore!"
"It's over!"
Knowing that struggling was useless, Yun Fan directly chose to give up resistance. At this moment, giving up resistance was the best option.
As expected, Biyao succeeded with Yun Fan again. Yun Fan knew that Biyao was doing this on purpose, as this method could no longer help Biyao much.
But Biyao still insisted on taking him down. What could he do? He was also desperate!
...
The next day, after Yun Fan refined it, he broke through to the seventh realm. It had to be said that although Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable was a scoundrel, his strength should not be underestimated.
After refining, it directly helped him break through one realm. At this realm, Yun Fan knew that he was already a low-profile version of an Immortal Venerable.
Why is it called a low-profile version? Because the high-profile version requires breaking through to the eighth realm, but it is still far from breaking through to the eighth realm.
Unless he can also harvest everything like Biyao, but he thinks it's better not to. That path is not his path.
As soon as he came out of seclusion, Xuanxuan arrived.
"Where is Yuxin?"
Yun Fan asked Xuanxuan.
Xuanxuan said, "Yuxin is helping the Empress get dressed and put on makeup!"
"I see!"
Speaking of which, Yun Fan also sympathized with Yuxin. She was originally the Saintess of the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace, but now she had become Biyao's maid.
At this time, Xuanxuan smiled tenderly at Yun Fan, "Young Master Yun, I miss you so much! But I can't come to see you!"
If it weren't for taking advantage of this opportunity, she wouldn't have been able to see Yun Fan.
Yun Fan comforted her, "It's okay, just bear with it a little longer!"
At this time, Xuanxuan said to Yun Fan, "Young Master Yun, the Empress will ascend the throne in an hour. We can do something else within this hour!"
It had to be said that Xuanxuan at this moment was very proactive.
Yun Fan naturally knew what Xuanxuan meant, so he took Xuanxuan within this short hour.
...
Later, it was time for the Empress's coronation. It had to be said that the Divine Hall was extremely lively today, because Biyao was ascending the throne, and there were too many people coming to congratulate her.
Let's not mention how many there were below the Immortal Venerable level, there were at least 100,000 people. Even among the Immortal Venerables, there were a full nine of them.
It had to be said that the grandeur was extremely great. Even Yun Fan was awestruck by this momentum.
He didn't know why Biyao hadn't arranged for him to come out and congratulate her, saying it wasn't time yet.
Helpless, Yun Fan could only wait behind, waiting for Biyao to call him out. It was fine if she didn't let him out! After all, he was a very low-key man.
It's just that Biyao had said she would give him a surprise. He didn't know what kind of surprise, and he didn't dare to ask!
So, at this time, all Yun Fan could do was wait.
It had to be said that Biyao's coronation was very tedious. The coronation ceremony alone took nearly two hours, which is four hours.
Yun Fan was so bored waiting behind that he started to doze off.
At this moment, Xuanxuan hurried in, "Young Master Yun, you can come out now!"
Yun Fan breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to come out. But before coming out, Biyao had Rain Xin come in to change into a cool outfit for him.
It had to be said that he did have the aura of an emperor. With this outfit on, his temperament truly came out.
At this time, Yun Fan arrived at the main hall. It had to be said that facing the gaze of over 100,000 pairs of eyes, even Yun Fan felt a little flustered.
At this time, Biyao said, "Everyone, I have another matter to announce to you all. From today onwards, Yun Fan will be this Emperor's husband. Seeing him is like seeing this Emperor!"
"Yes!"
100,000 people answered in unison. Yun Fan was stunned. So this was the surprise Biyao had mentioned.
But now he was in a difficult situation. He could only smile and respond to everyone.
He thought the coronation ceremony would end with the announcement of his identity, but he did not expect an accident to happen.
Just then, a powerful aura descended from the sky. Everyone's expression changed, because this aura also surpassed that of an Immortal Venerable, but it did not reach Biyao's strength.
When everyone saw this figure, their expressions changed again, because the visitor was none other than Hong Lian, Yao Xi's steward.
In the immortal realm, not many people didn't recognize her. They didn't know why she was here. Was it to kill Biyao?
But with Biyao's current strength, let alone killing Biyao, even if the Empress herself came out, she might not be able to kill Biyao.
A mere Hong Lian, although very powerful, was still somewhat different from Biyao.
When Hong Lian saw Yun Fan, her eyes revealed adoration. That was her man!
At this time, Biyao said coldly, "What are you doing here? You are not welcome here!"
