Chapter 2459: Farewell, My Empress
“Pervert, are you still with me? I am very powerful now. I can suppress you with one claw.” said Blackie.
Being ignored by Zhang Ruochen made Blackie feel depressed and decided to teach him a lesson.

A powerful spiritual power was released from its body and condensed into streaks of thunder and fire. It melted the cave wall and rushed toward Zhang Ruochen.
This thunder and fire were even more terrifying than the Divine Purification Flame that Zhang Ruochen had cultivated. Zhang Ruochen realized that Blackie’s cultivation had really recovered. He had underestimated it before.
Crash
Suddenly, the s.p.a.ce shattered and a three-meter-long hole appeared.
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t balance himself and fell into the dark void. Then, he was swept away by a strange light beam and disappeared.

Blackie’s eyes changed slightly. He was about to chase into the void, but he was. .h.i.t by an invisible power wave and rolled back like a top.
The sound of a sword rang out.
The Void Sword flew out and landed in Han Xue’s hand.
Blackie got up from the ground and said, “Don’t chase after him. It’s the Empress. The Empress took Zhang Ruochen away.”
Han Xue was worried. She frowned and said, “We have to go and plead for master. I believe that he must have been forced to do what he did in the Infernal Court. It wasn’t his original intention.”
Blackie shook his head and said, “If the Empress wanted to kill him, why would she take him away? In her eyes, a mere Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saint is just a stronger worm.”
Han Xue put away the Void Sword and said, “I understand! Master must have met the Empress long ago. Maybe he also secretly joined the Avīci Pavilion.”
Blackie shook his head again, “No,” he said. “I think the Empress is fond of talents, so she mercifully spared Zhang Ruochen’s life. She wants him to turn over a new leaf. The Empress is too kind, too grand, and too broad-minded. I can’t compare to her.
“Oh, there is a bigger possibility. The Empress probably didn’t kill him just now because of me. After all, I have a unique position in the Empress’s heart. No one can replace me!”
Han Xue said, “Even so, why did the Empress. .h.i.t you and send you flying back?”
Blackie’s smug expression froze. With a face as black as a cat, he snorted and turned to leave. He said angrily, “Just wait to collect Zhang Ruochen’s corpse. The Empress won’t let him go.”
...
Empress of Thousand Bones’ Divine Plane was an endless sea.
The surface of the sea was as calm as a mirror, reflecting a clear reflection.
This was Zhang Ruochen’s second visit. The Empress of Thousand Bones stood in front of him. Her posture was as straight as a divine sword. She was only wearing a white robe. Her black hair was casually draped behind her back, tied in the middle with a blue ribbon.
She had a gentle temperament, a n.o.ble and imposing elegance, a boundless and invisible mystery, and the spirit of a warG.o.d that swept through thousands of soldiers. No woman stood in front of her without feeling ashamed of her inferiority.
Even though Zhang Ruochen had been tempered to be firm enough, he was still impressed.
Zhang Ruochen had met many unique women, but none of them could be like Empress of Thousand Bones, who had all kinds of extreme temperaments condensed into one body. It was like a sacred mountain shrouded in clouds and mist. No matter how hard he tried to investigate, he could not see through it, he could not find it.
Compared to her, Chi Yao was less mysterious and more domineering.
Compared to her, Moon G.o.ddess was less heroic and more gentle.
This was the first time Zhang Ruochen had seen the Empress of Thousand Bones’ figure clearly, but he still couldn’t see her face clearly. How beautiful was her face that could make men have endless illusions?
The Empress of Thousand Bones stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, “In the past, I always thought that I could see through the essence of the world, including every cultivator I met. But I can’t see through you and Pan Ruo.”
“Recently, I’ve been thinking about a problem. Pan Ruo was clearly unwilling to agree to the marriage because of you. She even went against the will of the Reverend and almost died. However, not long ago, I told her that she didn’t have to continue being a Scioness. She didn’t have to risk staying in the Infernal Court. I told her to leave with you and pursue her own life. Guess what’s her answer?”
“I think she refused!” Zhang Ruochen said.
The Empress of Thousand Bones nodded and said, “I asked her why, but she kept silent.”
“She is a woman who doesn’t like to explain and hides everything in her heart,” Zhang Ruochen said.
The Empress of Thousand Bones said, “In that case, let me ask you a question. If I agree to help you save Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue, are you willing to leave the Infernal Court with Pan Ruo? I believe that you don’t like the deceit of the Infernal Court and the smell of blood that can corrode people’s hearts.”
Zhang Ruochen thought for a moment and said, “No.”
The Empress of Thousand Bones said, “Why? For her, you used the Avīci token and asked me to kill Lady Wind. Then you fought Yan Wushen to the death. Weren’t these two things to stop her from marrying Yan Wushen? Didn’t you want to be with her? Did you want her to continue staying in such a dangerous place like the Infernal Court? Or did you like staying in the Infernal Court and don’t want to leave?”
“My Empress, I don’t have the answers to your question,” Zhang Ruochen said.
The Empress of Thousand Bones smiled. She said, “Human nature is indeed complicated. It’s funny that I thought I had seen through everything in the world before. It seems that no matter what cultivation I reach, I can’t see through the vastness of the universe and the depth of the human heart.
“I’ve already got Fuurei’s Destiny Token. If you lend me the Canon of Destiny for some time, I can forge a brand-new Destiny Token.”
The Empress of Thousand Bones stretched out a flawless white hand. Her five fingers were slender and long, looking extremely beautiful.
Zhang Ruochen reached out his palm and touched the sacred and inviolable hand. Instantly, a bright light bloomed between his palms, illuminating the entire Divine Plane.
For some reason, Zhang Ruochen could trust her without reservation even though they had only known each other for a short period.
Perhaps this was her charm!
She was able to establish the Avīci Pavilion in the Infernal Court and was listed as one of the top ten dark forces. She had many powerhouses under her command and countless cultivators surrendered to her. It was definitely not something that could be achieved solely by cultivation.
After the Empress of Thousand Bones took away the Canon of Destiny, she said, “How long will you stay on Hoth?”
“Three months at most,” Zhang Ruochen said.
The Empress of Thousand Bones said, “Three months should be enough! I will return the Canon of Destiny to you within three months. Go. If you run into a problem on Hoth that you can’t solve, you can ask Blackie and Han Xue to summon the power of the Avci Pavilion to a.s.sist you.”
SWOOs.h.!.+
Numerous Dimensional Inscriptions flew out of her sleeve and hit Zhang Ruochen.
In the next moment, Zhang Ruochen felt as if his body was constantly jumping in s.p.a.ce. He could neither breathe nor control his body.
When one of the jumps stopped, he could vaguely see the huge outline of Hoth. It was like a white egg floating in the universe. The surface of the egg was covered in mist.
A moment later, he stepped on the ground and found that he had returned to the cave in Mount Wutong.
Taking a long breath, Zhang Ruochen’s heart gradually calmed down. He thought to himself, “It seems that the Empress is not on Hoth at all. She is in the universe void far away from Hoth.”
At that moment, he estimated that he had traveled at least one billion miles, or even more.
The Empress’s spatial attainments were very high.
Seeing that Zhang Ruochen had returned safely, Han Xue’s worried heart finally settled. She said, “Master, the Empress didn’t make things difficult for you, did she?”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head slightly and asked, “In the Infernal Court, how many cultivators know that you are from the Avīci Pavilion?”
“Not many! After I came to the Infernal Court with the Grandmaster, the Empress noticed I had the Thousand Bones Physique, cultivated?G.o.d’s Fall, and received the approval of the Void Sword. Therefore, the Empress thought that we were fated to meet each other and accepted me as her disciple. Only a few of the higher-ups of the Avīci Pavilion know about this,” Han Xue said.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “What about Blackie?”
“Blackie has only been in the Infernal Court for a short time. Although it has caused a lot of trouble on Hoth, few cultivators know that it is related to the Avīci Pavilion. The cultivators in Mount Wutong have seen it, but they will forget it after seeing it. Blackie’s spiritual power is strong. It will erase their memories,” Han Xue said.
Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, “If that’s the case, you can help me a little.”
Although the Empress had requested that Blackie and Han Xue mobilize the power of the Avci Pavilion to a.s.sist him, Zhang Ruochen did not dare to approach the Avci Pavilion.
He had to distance himself from the Avīci Pavilion.
“How about this, Han Xue? If you continue to stay in the Avci Pavilion, you should change your appearance and avoid contacting me directly,” Zhang Ruochen advised.
Han Xue asked, “And then?”
“When I need the help of the Avīci Pavilion, I will send you a message,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Blackie snorted coldly in the cave and said, “The Avīci Pavilion is the Empress’s foundation. How can you mobilize it just because you want to?”
“This is the Empress’ idea!” Zhang Ruochen said.
“What?” said Blackie.
Blackie was so shocked that its eyeb.a.l.l.s almost fell to the ground. He said, “Impossible. The Empress spared your life because of me. Ahem, maybe because of Xue’er.”
“The Empress also said that from now on, you should listen to my arrangements. If you don’t, she will hit your ears,” Zhang Ruochen said.
“Are you kidding me? If the Empress said that, I... I will become a dog in my next rebirth.”

Blackie could not believe that the Empress was so n.o.ble and sacred that she would cooperate with sc.u.m like Zhang Ruochen.
It also could not believe that with its current cultivation and its previous friends.h.i.+p with the Empress, the Empress would let it listen to Zhang Ruochen?
It should be Zhang Ruochen who obeyed him.
After a while.
Blackie seemed to have communicated with the Empress’s spiritual sense. It came to Zhang Ruochen in a daze. There was an indescribable sadness in its eyes, it said, “It shouldn’t be. The Empress should trust me more. Why? Why? After waiting for 100,000 years, I’m not as good as you.”
Zhang Ruochen patted its head and said, “Have you thought about what you’ll become in the next rebirth? You Don’t have to become a dog. I think you’ll look good as a cat.”
“Really?” said Blackie.
Blackie’s eyes lit up. It felt that it was acceptable to become a cat.
After all, it had been a cat for 100,000 years.
“Let’s see your performance. Come with me to meet someone. There are some things I need to figure out,” Zhang Ruochen said.
