Chapter 502 Mu Yunxi's Recruitment
After the Yue Emperor had destroyed the Supreme Soaring Dragon Array with a single sword strike, she was preparing to make a move against the King of Sand Wizard. However, a soft and seductive voice coming from a distance made her pause.
"As expected of the ruler of the Da Yue Dynasty, you have not yet reached the Heavenly Human Realm, yet you have already comprehended the Sword Intent. Such talent is rare even in the Immortal world."
The Yue Emperor quickly recovered, and her gaze turned towards the direction where the voice originated.
She saw a woman walking slowly towards her, revealing her belly, dressed in a shimmering gold dress, barefoot.
A red string with two small bells attached was tied around the woman's ankle. With each step she took, the bells would make a crisp sound.
The sound of the bells seemed to pierce straight through the heart, causing a piercing pain in one's chest.
The Yue Emperor instantly understood what was happening; those bells were a Spiritual Artifact that directly attacked the soul.
The Yue Emperor then said coldly, "You really are not from this world."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunxi chuckled lightly, then spoke, "To know that This Palace is not from this world shows that you are no ordinary person either."
The Yue Emperor continued to ask, "I am very curious, in a world without Spiritual Energy, what is a cultivator like you doing in such a low-level world?"
The tone of the Yue Emperor was very cold, as if she was not asking a question but interrogating Mu Yunxi.
Hearing the Yue Emperor's question, Mu Yunxi replied indifferently, "This Palace just happened upon this world by accident."
Upon hearing Mu Yunxi say this, the Yue Emperor immediately thought of something and then said, "It seems you accidentally fell into this world and cannot leave."
Being pinpointed by the Yue Emperor about her predicament, Mu Yunxi did not get angry. She smiled charmingly and then said, "You are right, This Palace currently cannot leave this world, but once I annihilate the various dynasties and gain the approval of this world's Heavenly Dao, This Palace will be able to utilize the Power of the Heavenly Path to leave this world."
Seeing that Mu Yunxi openly shared her intentions, the Yue Emperor frowned slightly, then said, "Why would you tell me all of this?"
The two of them were meeting for the first time, and the Yue Emperor did not remember when she had any interaction with this scantily clad woman opposite her.
Mu Yunxi said:

"Originally, This Palace planned to seize this opportunity to annihilate the Da Yue, but after seeing you, I changed my mind."
"Your talent is quite extraordinary, and This Palace intends to accept you as a disciple. As long as you are willing to help This Palace unify this world, once This Palace gains the recognition of the Heavenly Dao, I can take you with me to leave this world."
"Since you know that This Palace is not from this world, you must also have some understanding of the outside world."
"This is a low-level world with an incomplete path; it is impossible to become an Immortal in this world."
Upon hearing Mu Yunxi's words, the Yue Emperor fell silent.
Seeing that the Yue Emperor did not respond, Mu Yunxi continued to speak, "As long as you are willing to become This Palace's disciple, This Palace will transfer the Supreme Soaring Dragon Array to you. This Palace knows that you launched an attack against the Barbarian Tribe precisely because of the Supreme Soaring Dragon Array, wanting to use it to confront Great Sum."
In Mu Yunxi's view, the Yue Emperor, this native, also had some capability and could play a certain role.
If she could take the Yue Emperor as her disciple, her own chances of successfully unifying this world would be even greater.
After a moment of thought, the Yue Emperor also considered that joining forces with the Barbarian Tribe Goddess against Great Sum was a good option, but…
This Barbarian Tribe Goddess also aimed to conquer everything; this meant that, in the eyes of this Barbarian Tribe Goddess, the Da Yue Dynasty would also eventually have to be obliterated.
If she became the disciple of this Barbarian Tribe Goddess, would she not be handing over her own position as Empress?
Of course, the most important thing was that this woman might not genuinely want to take her as a disciple; she might be plotting something.
If she truly agreed to become her disciple, she might very well be schemed against.
Having spent so many years in the Misty World, the Yue Emperor was well aware of the deceit and trickery in the Immortal world, where it was hard to hear any truths among cultivators.
The deep relationship between her and Wu Junwan stemmed from their both having experienced the deception in the Misty World, and whenever they faced danger, their trust in each other deepened their bond through each crisis.
Back when she had encountered danger in the Misty World, she chose to trust Wu Junwan because they came from the same world.
But this woman was different. This woman was not from their world, and the Yue Emperor was well aware of how cultivators from higher worlds viewed those from lower worlds.
In the eyes of cultivators from a higher cultivation world, people from a lower world were no different from ants.
The Yue Emperor then said, "I already have a Honored Master, and I do not like to submit to others!"
As she spoke, the aura around the Yue Emperor surged, instantly stirring up the surrounding dust. The aura fluttered the skirt of her Black Gold Armor and her ponytail whipped through the air.
Feeling the aura of the Yue Emperor, Mu Yunxi let out a light laugh, "A Martial Artist who hasn't even entered the Heavenly Human Realm and yet possesses such an aura, truly a fine prospect."
"This Palace knows what you're thinking. Do you think This Palace wants to wrestle the throne from you?"
"If that's what you think, then it only shows your shortsightedness. This Palace has no interest whatsoever in a flawed world like this."
"If you are unwilling to leave this world with This Palace, I can give this world to you in the future."
As she spoke, the anklets on Mu Yunxi emitted bursts of tangible soundwaves, continuously assaulting the Yue Emperor's body.
However, the Yue Emperor remained unmoved. What the soldiers from both sides did not know was that although Mu Yunxi and the Yue Emperor had not moved, their confrontation had already begun.
After a while, the Yue Emperor said coldly, "I have told you, I already have a Honored Master. If you truly wish to cooperate with me, I can agree, but I need to see if you have the qualifications to cooperate with me!"
No sooner had her words fallen than the Yue Emperor raised her sword. In the next moment, the winds changed, and heavy clouds appeared in the sky.
Seeing this scene, the soldiers of Da Yue knew their Empress was about to make a move and swiftly retreated.
The Empress possessed the strength of a Celestial, and her actions were bound to cause huge destruction. If they were too close, they would also be affected.
Seeing that the Yue Emperor insisted on a confrontation, Mu Yunxi showed no anger. She murmured, "Since you want to test This Palace's strength, then This Palace shall oblige you."
As she spoke, Mu Yunxi completely unleashed her Celestial aura.
Feeling Mu Yunxi's aura, the Barbarian Tribe soldiers hurriedly retreated, knowing well that their Goddess made no distinction between friend and foe when she struck.
Once the soldiers from both sides had moved far away, the Yue Emperor's figure flashed, transforming into a mere afterimage as she charged towards Mu Yunxi. At that moment, the whole world seemed to hit the pause button, and everything turned black and white.
In the blink of an eye, the Yue Emperor appeared in front of Mu Yunxi, thrusting her sword imbued with Destruction Sword Intent.
Just as the sword was about to make contact with Mu Yunxi's body, the corners of Mu Yunxi's lips slightly curled upwards.
The next moment, the bells on Mu Yunxi's ankle rang again, and a series of soundwaves, materialized into form, easily blocked the Yue Emperor's sword.
