Chapter 526: Chapter 439: Making a Grand Entrance! Great Sun Soaring in the Sky

But who would have thought Fang Yang would take control so easily!?

......

While Fang Yang was in secluded cultivation, the other major domains were also undergoing upheavals.

In the Cosmic Realm, Di Zhao and Feng Ning’Er plotted to obtain the Celestial Heart Mark, seeking an unconventional path to enter the ranks of the Young Venerables.

In the Heavenly Realm, Sang Xiaowan revealed the wondrous nature of her physique, which became an immortal body upon Enlightenment. Even though it was deliberately suppressed, she still showed the promise of a fledgling phoenix.

In the Earthly Realm, Ye Jianrou officially began her cultivation journey and completely mastered the Sword Qi Realm, one of the Five Realms of Swordsmanship, stunning countless elders of the Demon Race.

And in the Hong Realm, the Great Xuan Dynasty’s war of succession, long overdue for a conclusion, finally came to an end today.

The sky was dark as a torrential rain poured down in dense sheets.

Suddenly, thunder roared unceasingly, lighting up the entire empty sky.

The next moment, two figures plummeted from the sky one after the other, shattering a grand formation and obliterating a city before crashing to the ground, unable to rise.

"The Crown Prince?! Prince Qin?!"

"Unbelievable. To think the Grand Princess was the one who won."

"The heavens themselves have changed! Our Great Xuan is about to produce its first empress!"

"..."

At this moment, Prince Ji and the other Great Xuan Saints stared wide-eyed, as if in a trance.

Even the previous Emperor of Great Xuan felt his mouth go dry with shock.

This was because everyone had assumed the Grand Princess, with her Form of the Python-Sparrow, was merely a vanguard paving the way for the true king. They believed she could never actually take the throne herself!

But this outcome was utterly unexpected.

Another roar echoed as the void rippled and a passage materialized.

The Grand Princess of Great Xuan stepped forth, standing in the void with her hands clasped behind her back, exuding an aura that looked down upon all living things.

She wore a simple suit of jet-black battle armor. Her dark hair danced wildly about her, her skin was as white as ivory, and her aura was frigid.

A cold wind swept by, and as her hair flew back, it revealed a startlingly beautiful face, set with a pair of utterly frigid eyes.

An empress of a Yun Dynasty—she was actually going to achieve it!

In other words, the Great Sun Dragon Lady’s Celestial Destiny for the Hong Realm would be inherited by her!

...

Sen Yue, the Great Sun Dragon Lady, and Fang Yang were the three Young Venerables who had appeared thus far.

Of the three, both Sen Yue and the Great Sun Dragon Lady had vanished, their whereabouts unknown.

Thus, for the time being, Fang Yang was the only known Young Venerable active in the Eight Domains of Heaven and Earth.

Having one person stand so far above the rest had always been a cause for concern among the Great Saints.

This was to say nothing of Fang Yang’s long list of achievements, which hung like a dark shroud over the various venerable orthodoxies.

Even within the Daoist Mansion of Eternal Life, which was close to the Golden Clan, some Saints were so fearful that they frantically threw their support behind Sang Xiaowan.

And so, they were all desperately hoping for a peerless genius to emerge from their own ranks to shatter Fang Yang’s solitary supremacy.

Therefore, once the struggle within the Great Xuan Dynasty concluded, its Grand Princess officially ascended to the stage of the Eight Domains of Heaven and Earth.

At that very moment, news of this was spreading like wildfire across Void Heaven.

"The Grand Princess of Great Xuan, Ji Qinghan."

"I never would have guessed she would be the one to come out on top. It’s just so astonishing."

"Wait, does this mean she’s about to ascend the throne and become the next Emperor of Great Xuan?"

"A Supreme Empress of a Yun Dynasty... this would be a first, wouldn’t it?"

"The great era has come, so it’s only fitting that there are new changes."

"Do you think she’ll be able to stand against Fang Yang?"

"I think it’s highly unlikely. No matter how strong she is, before Fang Yang, she’ll only be able to defend her current position at best."

"No, you can’t be so sure. The Vast Sea Venerable Emperor was a Venerable from the recent ancient era—the one closest to our time. Who knows, maybe the Vast Sea Venerable Emperor left some tricks up her sleeve."

"..."

The Central Trading City in Void Heaven was in an uproar.

A great many Saints logged into Void Heaven, frantically gobbling up the latest gossip.

They were constantly digging for any information related to the Grand Princess of Great Xuan, Ji Qinghan.

’Ji Qinghan,’ the will of Jiuzhe brooded in a secluded corner.

’To be honest, I didn’t expect the Grand Princess to be the one to emerge.’

’In my predictions, the probability of her success was less than ten percent.’

’The most likely victor should have been Prince Qin.’

’Vast Sea, have you already managed to claim the title of king among the venerables in the Immortal Realm?’ Jiuzhe’s will looked up, gazing far beyond the heavens.

’The Grand Princess of Great Xuan is a wildcard. The Form of the Python-Sparrow entails too many incredible possibilities.’

At this, Jiuzhe fell into deep thought.

’I do have other arrangements outside the Immortal Realm.’

’But the Immortal Realm is too vast, filled with countless great worlds. It’s impossible for me to control every variable everywhere.’

...

「In Longevity Heaven’s Sacred Land, beyond the outer Ancient Star.」

"The Grand Princess of Great Xuan, Ji Qinghan, has reached the summit? And in three days, she’ll be enthroned as empress and gather the Celestial Destiny Mark?!" Thunder Control the Great Saint raised a delicate eyebrow.

Even with her several thousand years of experience, she couldn’t help but be startled by this piece of intelligence.

’The Great Xuan Dynasty was always mocking our Golden Clan, calling us feudal, decadent barbarians.’

’But in reality, the Great Xuan Dynasty itself wasn’t any better.’

’The resistance to letting a woman take power, be crowned empress, and rule over all creation would be absolutely immense.’

’Originally, I thought the Great Sun Dragon Lady might have had such an opportunity.’

’But I never expected the prize to ultimately fall to Ji Qinghan.’

’The first empress of a Yun Dynasty in all of history... The significance of that is immense!’

"The younger generation is truly formidable..." Thunder Control the Great Saint shook her head.

The next moment, she gazed at Fang Yang, her furrowed brow relaxing as a smile touched her lips.

’No matter how incredible Ji Qinghan is, I can’t imagine how she could possibly contend with Fang Yang!’

「Three days later.」

A visitor from Longevity Heaven entrusted Thunder Control the Great Saint with a peculiar artifact to present to Fang Yang.

Thunder Control the Great Saint said, "If I’m not mistaken, this is related to the python-sparrow. Those old fossils want you to be prepared."
