Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

Chapter 1052: Chapter 313: Is This a Dream? Just Needless Worries!

Qin Xiu felt the surging blood and energy within her. She mostly understood why she won.

Actually, she shouldn’t have been able to win.

This general was not just for show; he was truly savage to the extreme. Even at her peak, she wouldn’t last more than two rounds against him. But one Elixir saved her. This Elixir was one she had privately kept, just for such situations. However, she knew that her original Elixir wouldn’t have been so vicious, wouldn’t have had such a powerful effect, so her Elixir must have been swapped.

It was replaced with a more terrifying Elixir, one that directly overdraws the body’s energy and blood.

So, who slipped this Elixir into her belt? Qin Xiu looked at Lu Yi, and Lu Yi looked back at her. She finally understood.

So it was the Elixir she gave her.

Calmly, she let go of the Qingfeng Sword in her hand, and the Qingfeng Sword fell onto Xu Dingsheng’s corpse. Under the nervous gazes of the soldiers, Qin Xiu stepped forward and said with a slight smile: "I merely took advantage, General Xu Dingsheng sold himself a chance. If he had seriously dealt with me from the start, I wouldn’t have survived."

"So your general is indeed remarkable. I admit defeat and will avoid any further conflict with you. If Your Majesty ever needs me, I will certainly help."

Qin Xiu was giving Lu Yi a way out.

She didn’t know what Lu Yi’s actions meant or why she took such steps, but it was clear the intention was to protect Qingyi.

But why?

The soldiers bowed their heads, unsure of what to say.

Lu Yi understood, wearing a faint smile. It was the first time her gaze was so seriously focused on the black-haired woman in front of her. The woman’s face was handsome and her body frail, yet it was baffling how such a woman could possess such great ability. But now was not the time to ponder such things. Lu Yi nodded slightly, her soft hair gently falling on her fair cheeks, her lips softly parted, and her smile blossomed like a flower.

"A loss is a loss, and I will keep my promise. This girl named Little Qingyi will be released. She can go wherever she wishes, and we will ensure her safe departure from the Sixth State."

"Thank you," Qin Xiu clasped her hands. This was the outcome she wanted.

"As for you, Qin Xiu, you will ultimately be imprisoned, but considering your considerable strength, you will have an extra year of life in the jail. Take care of yourself," Lu Yi continued.

Qin Xiu accepted it.

In such a chaotic situation, this outcome was already not bad. As for prison? She didn’t care about such things. Within the jail, she needed to carefully review her situation and at least understand the current state of affairs. She did not believe Lu Yi was someone with poor judgment.

Qin Xiu was certain Lu Yi would come to find her. Could there really be eternal enemies in this world? Certainly not.

As for Lu Yi herself, her appearance was astonishingly beautiful.

Qin Xiu had not expected the Empress to possess such beauty; it was truly breathtaking. Her figure was perfect, with an exceptional charm and bearing that exuded imperial majesty. If she could stay by such a woman’s side, it would undoubtedly help her understand the current situation in the Sixth State.

By Lu Yi’s side, under the carriage, there were a few female guards. These were not ordinary female guards; they were Lu Yi’s personal bodyguards. Although women, they were trained from a young age and possessed remarkable abilities. Among them, Zhou Zhiwen, the head guard, looked at Qin Xiu with great displeasure.

She caught a glimpse of the strange look in Lu Yi’s eyes! It must be noted that the Empress had never looked at any other woman with such eyes, which made her feel uncomfortably overlooked.

"It’s just killing a Xu Dingsheng! Even that trash, I could easily destroy, yet she acts as if she’s so formidable! Just wait, I will certainly find a chance to have a decisive battle with you! I want the Empress to see who she should truly trust!"

Zhou Zhiwen thought silently to herself, coldly watching Qin Xiu in the distance.

The other female guards looked at Qin Xiu with the same attitude.

They felt a slight sense of neglect, each one gritting their teeth as they looked at Qin Xiu, wishing they could kill her on the spot!

And in the silence of the surrounding soldiers, Lu Yi proclaimed loudly: "We won, but we can’t be careless; this is the fate of carelessness for this general."

"We guard our hearts."

"Victory is certain!"

The soldiers paused, then their faces regained joy. Yes, it was just the general’s carelessness, so all they needed to do in the future was not to be careless!

Then came waves of cheers.

We are willing to follow you forever!

Meanwhile, Qingyi was already kneeling on the ground, looking at Qin Xiu, tears streaming down like rain, the black sky, black rain, and glaring blood made it all seem like a dream.

...

In the Medicine Master Valley, Yuchi was unaware of what was happening in the Sixth State. His mind was focused on his disciple. He had just been conversing extensively with Sun Miaoxing, discussing the general situation, and knew what they had talked about.

"Yes, we were discussing things like the Divine Soul and wandering souls."

"We talked about how my disciple has such a powerful Divine Soul, to the point that it left the Physique and became a Divine Soul." Yuchi pondered as Sun Miaoxing remembered their conversation. He was curious and asked, "So, Elder Sun, you and your people have no cultivation, but your Divine Souls are inherently strong. Is it because your realms are high enough that the Divine Soul doesn’t leave the body?"
