Chapter 495 467: Qing Yueqiu Awakens, Master, I Will Protect You Well

Pei Yuhang gave the ministers no time to think, instead bluffing his way through his command, "The time for the Great Zhao's fall has not yet come. Therefore, the heavens have taken pity and bestowed power upon Prince Ning's daughter, allowing her to save the Great Zhao.

"Right now, that girl carries the fate of your entire dynasty on her shoulders. If she fails, all of you will die, and all traces of your dynasty will vanish from this world…"

Prime Minister Liu nodded gravely and astutely asked, "Immortal Pei, what do you need us to do?"

"Order the entire city to pray for Prince Ning's daughter!"

"Let the Merit of all living beings forge her a golden body and aid her in completely eradicating the Demon Fiend!"

Pei Yuhang pointed at the two figures tangled in the sky and spoke with grim resolve.

Upon hearing Pei Yuhang's words, all the ministers froze in shock.

'Using the Merit of all living beings to forge a golden body and attain a Dao Fruit? That sounds far too fetched…'

Prime Minister Liu was the first to react, barking at those around him, "What are you all still standing around for?! Didn't you hear Immortal Pei's words?!

"The very survival of our Great Zhao hangs in the balance! Quickly, have the Forbidden Army notify the entire city to pray for Prince Ning's daughter! Beg her to save our people from this calamity!

"Not just the Capital City… the entire world must pray for her! Release all the carrier pigeons in the city! Spread the Immortal's command throughout the land for me!"

After Prime Minister Liu spoke, the ministers all came to their senses and replied, "Yes!"

...

...

In the sky above, lightning writhed like a chaotic dance of dragons and snakes, constantly lashing out and colliding, shaking the heavens and earth with thunderous booms.

Qing Yueqiu manipulated the endless raindrops, transforming them into Sword Qi to corner Ji Shenyun.

But Ji Shenyun had no bizarre Divine Abilities, nor any strange Magical Treasures. All she had was a terrifyingly, unbelievably powerful Physique!

Yet this most basic form of power left Qing Yueqiu, who held the advantage in the storm, feeling completely at a loss.

BANG— BANG BANG!!

Punch after punch, like furious dragons, blasted out, continuously tearing great holes through the clouds in the sky.

Qing Yueqiu's attacks were shattered one after another, and the situation devolved into a stalemate.

"Pathetic junior, you actually dare to try and subdue me with your mere Divinity Transformation Cultivation? Even in my weakened state, I am not some weakling you can just walk all over!"

"Don't you just adore that Pei Yuhang? After I defeat you, I will use your body to utterly dominate that Pei Yuhang, taking my pleasure with him again and again! HAHAHA~!

"You should be thanking me for it~!"

Ji Shenyun's loose silver hair danced wildly in the wind and rain, her voice filled with a domineering arrogance that looked down upon the world.

Qing Yueqiu's gaze grew colder and colder. This Demoness before her was repeatedly insulting her master, and it was about to push her past her breaking point!

But she heeded Pei Yuhang's teachings, not letting anger cloud her judgment. She remained rational.

'How on earth can I break through this Demoness's peerless physique?'

Qing Yueqiu frowned in frustration. It was an answer she was destined not to find; after all, even the experts of the Divine Desolate Era had been helpless against Ji Shenyun's Vajra Indestructible body and Divine Soul.

In the end, their only option had been to seal her.

Qing Yueqiu's best option was naturally to suppress and seal her away as well, but that would require an instantaneous display of overwhelming power—something she was not yet capable of...

"Sister Ling… please bless my parents and me with safety and prosperity!"

The tender voice of a child echoed by her ear, startling Qing Yueqiu for a moment.

'What is that voice?'

Before Qing Yueqiu could recover from her surprise, more voices of prayer flooded her ears.

"We, the people of Great Zhao, have wronged Prince Ning! But we can only shamelessly beseech Prince Ning's daughter to protect the lands of our Great Zhao and eradicate the Demon Fiend!"

"Prince Ning, may your spirit in the heavens…"

"Sister Ling…"

Ji Shenyun's eyes widened as she watched countless golden lights stream in from all corners of the land, weaving together in the sky and converging on Qing Yueqiu.

She could feel the aura of the silver-haired girl, now covered in golden light, growing deeper and more powerful!

'What's going on?!'

'Why has the world's faith suddenly converged on this little bitch, causing her Divine Soul Power to leap to a new level?!'

Ji Shenyun looked down, her gaze locking onto the White-clothed Sword Immortal in the Imperial Palace thousands of feet below, who was persuading the court officials.

"This is your doing!"

"You damn man! I should have sucked you dry back then!"
