"Huo gai ni xiong xiao!"
This bold and unapologetic remark echoed sharply in the desolate black hole, sounding perfectly natural coming from Ye Dashao. He dared to openly insult someone about their chest size, and not just anyone—it was directed at a female Shengti who was nearly at the peak of her development. His unique style was truly one of a kind.
Though he hurled the insult, his eyes were wide open, fixed intently on the female Shengti's reaction. If this outburst proved effective, the situation ahead would be much easier to handle.
Under his watchful gaze, the female Shengti swung her sword again.
This strike was slightly weaker in power and lacked precision, allowing Ye Chen to dodge it effortlessly. Just as before, the Zhuxian Jian, already buzzing with energy, grew even more agitated.
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, a sharp glint flashing in them.
The agitation of the Zhuxian Jian wasn't random—it stemmed from the female Shengti's consciousness awakening and threatening its control. And her consciousness reviving had its own reasons.
Ye Dashao had already pinpointed that cause. His loud insult had enraged the female Shengti, stirring her dormant mind and prompting her to vie for control against the Zhuxian Jian. Their internal struggle was what caused the drop in her power and accuracy.
This was good news. If the Zhuxian Jian held absolute control, it would be an endless fight to the death. But if the female Shengti gained the upper hand, things would change. As fellow Huanggu Shengti with an unbreakable, complicated bond, this offered a glimmer of hope.
So, he held nothing back and took a deep breath.
"Huo gai ni xiong xiao!"
This shout carried even more force than before, infused with his yuan shen power and the divine might of imperial weapons.
Because of his outburst, the Zhuxian Jian trembled more violently, and a hint of anger appeared in the female Shengti's otherwise dull expression. A spark ignited in her vacant, beautiful eyes, overshadowing even the colorful immortal light in her pupils. Given enough time, that spark could extinguish the immortal light entirely.
This was working!
Now fully convinced of his theory, Ye Chen's eyes shone with determination.
There was real depth to comments about one's chest, especially when directed at women—it was surprisingly effective. Though the method was a bit crude, the outcome mattered most. As long as he could awaken the female Shengti, anything was possible.
Immediately, he summoned his Sheng Zhan Fa Shen and integrated five imperial weapons into it, maximizing its combat strength to ensure it wouldn't be instantly destroyed by a single sword strike.
Meanwhile, he wielded the five imperial weapons himself, pressing them toward the female Shengti.
Buzz!
The five supreme imperial weapons shone like five brilliant suns, their emperor dao principles intertwining. Their combined power was devastating enough to shatter the heavens and earth, forcing even the female Shengti to stagger back.
But she wasn't one to back down easily. With a crystalline jade hand, she swept out a palm that overturned the five imperial weapons and sent Ye Chen's true body stumbling backward.
However, Ye Dashao was undeterred and charged back relentlessly, using the imperial weapons for both defense and attack.
Boom! Bang! Boom!
The battle erupted again, shaking the very fabric of the universe.
Unlike before, Ye Chen was no longer on the defensive; he could now trade blows directly with the female Shengti. There were even moments when he counterattacked, driving her back.
This shift didn't mean he was stronger than her—it was because the female Shengti and the Zhuxian Jian were locked in a silent struggle for control, preventing either from fighting at full strength. In fact, their internal conflict severely weakened their overall power.
This gave Ye Chen his opening; he needed exactly this kind of chaos.
His Sheng Zhan Fa Shen wasn't idle either, constantly splitting into clones—one became two, two became four, and so on, until there were over ten thousand, all standing in perfect formation.
In that instant, whether it was the Sheng Zhan Fa Shen or Ye Chen's clones, they all inhaled deeply in synchronized motion.
"Huo gai ni xiong xiao!"
Amid the rumbling booms, this collective shout truly shook the heavens and moved the ghosts. Over ten thousand voices cursing in unison made the black hole tremble, each one echoing Ye Chen's original tone perfectly.
This shout seemed to carry some supreme magic, causing the female Shengti's assault to pause for a moment. It fueled her inner rage, intensifying her desire to seize control and posing the greatest threat yet to the Zhuxian Jian.
Seizing that brief hesitation, Ye Dashao activated the Di Dao Fuxi array.
Buzz!
The five imperial weapons were added to the array, trapping the female Shengti inside. This emperor-level seal went beyond ordinary laws.
"Seal!"
Ye Chen shouted firmly, forming seals with one hand and unleashing every sealing technique he knew, channeling them into the Fuxi array to bind the female Shengti.
But reality was harsher than his hopes. Even with his powerful sealing abilities boosted by the imperial weapons, he couldn't hold her. In just three breaths, the female Shengti broke free and struck, sending Ye Chen flying.
"Hey!"
Ye Dashao was fired up now, instantly rushing back in with unyielding persistence. He burned his essence blood for surging power, driving the imperial weapons to their limits in a frenzied assault.
"Huo gai ni xiong xiao!"
His support team was equally relentless, their shouts overlapping wave after wave.
In this way, their roles were clearly divided.
Ye Chen's true body handled the fighting, while his Fa Shen and clones focused on the verbal barrage, disrupting the female Shengti and Zhuxian Jian's control. Their coordination was flawless.
"What a genius!"
Ming Di sighed in admiration, though with a hint of exasperation. The female Shengti's chest wasn't that small, but did he really need to organize a whole group to insult it? Well, it wasn't just a group—it was like an army of clones. Insulting on his own was one thing, but dragging an army into it was over the top.
Di Huang's expression was equally solemn and reflective.
This was typical of Ye Chen, the tenth emperor of Da Chu. If it were him, he couldn't bring himself to do it. Ye Chen's mouth was just too sharp, taking a certain spirit to the extreme.
In truth, even the mightiest had weaknesses, especially women.
Di Huang felt this deeply.
He recalled how Yue Shang had gone berserk back in the day—far more ferocious than the female Shengti. Insulting someone's looks was one thing, but never, ever comment on their chest size. It could lead to a bloodbath.
Boom! Bang! Boom!
"Huo gai ni xiong xiao!"
The battle in the black hole raged on fiercely, and the shouts echoed just as loudly. Even through the barrier between the human and nether realms, the two supreme beings felt their ears ring.
To be fair, Ye Chen's tactic was proving effective.
Looking out, the scene was quite a sight—over ten thousand clones surrounded the female Shengti at the center, led by the Sheng Zhan Fa Shen in a nonstop verbal assault. One wave hadn't ended before the next began. The true body, Fa Shen, and clones worked together seamlessly. Aside from Ye Chen and his Fa Shen, the clones were weak in combat, but their voices were thunderous!
In this moment, those powerful voices were more useful than any divine artifact.
As the Zhuxian Jian grew increasingly restless, Ming Di and Di Huang both sighed in unison. In this situation, the phrase "huo gai ni xiong xiao" hit harder than any emperor dao immortal technique, dealing devastating damage to the current state of the Zhuxian Jian.
That damage referred specifically to its fusion with the female Shengti.
Imagine if her consciousness fully awakened and she regained control—then the Zhuxian Jian would be out of the picture. It wouldn't stand a chance against Ye Chen, especially with the female Shengti as his potential ally. Without her as a foundation, in its weakened state, the Zhuxian Jian was no match for Ye Chen, who had imperial weapons to aid him. After all, the Shengti was its natural nemesis.
In the starry sky, crowds had gathered from all directions, filling an entire star domain to investigate the commotion.
At that moment, figures dotted the scene, all craning their necks toward the void with peculiar expressions.
"I think I just heard someone cursing loudly."
"Huo gai ni xiong xiao—that's the line. My ears are sharp as ever."
"There must be a huge number of people shouting that."
Discussions buzzed everywhere, with female cultivators showing the most animated reactions. Whenever the topic of chests came up, they couldn't help but glance around, sizing up the other women nearby.
It wasn't until some time later that the booms and shouts finally faded.
The deep black hole fell back into silence.
Ye Chen stood there, gripping an imperial sword, swaying unsteadily with sacred blood dripping from his body.
His Fa Shen had dissipated, its time limit reached, while the over ten thousand clones were hunched over, coughing up blood. They'd strained their voices from shouting for so long.
As for the female Shengti, she held the Zhuxian Jian, her watery eyes now burning with golden flames of rage. That fury filled not just her eyes but her entire sacred body, dispelling the colorful immortal light around her. Her aura had reached the brink of Shengti perfection, like that of a female emperor.
Indeed, she had gained the upper hand in the consciousness battle and reclaimed control.
Her return was largely thanks to Ye Dashao, who had fought himself nearly to ruin, with his clones putting in tireless effort, cursing earnestly for hours on end.
But now, no one dared shout anymore. Doing so would just provoke the true body further.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After a long silence, the booms resumed, slow and rhythmic.
It was the female Shengti, advancing step by step toward Ye Chen with the Zhuxian Jian in hand. Each step carried supreme dao essence, freezing time and disrupting the flow of it. Her graceful movements were heavier than mountains, making the universe tremble and worldly laws illusory.
Now fully alert, her eyes no longer held their cold detachment—or rather, it was overshadowed by rage. Her supreme pressure, combined with chilling killing intent, could shatter the heavens and destroy the earth. She was a world-conquering queen, a goddess of absolute slaughter, as if her scales had been tipped, unleashing a massacre that would leave mountains of corpses and rivers of blood.
"Seriously, your chest isn't small at all." Ye Chen chuckled awkwardly, retreating as he laughed. With the female Shengti back in control and at her peak strength, he stood no chance.
"You have truly enraged me." The female Shengti's face was as frosty as ice, her steps unwavering. Each one made her killing intent grow colder, causing frost to form visibly across the black hole. Her words were clear and ethereal, yet hollow and desolate, laced with supreme magic that muddled even Ye Chen's mind like a demonic curse.
"You really want to kill me?" Ye Chen stammered unsteadily.
"To the death." The female Shengti replied coldly.
"Once upon a time, there was a sincere love right in front of us—can I at least finish what I was saying?" The clever Ye Dashao tried to spin a cheesy line, but awkwardly, the female Shengti ignored it completely and attacked mid-sentence. Her sword strike was domineering, cleaving through the heavens and earth.
