<h4>Chapter 1423: Chapter 1420: The Female Emperor Suggests Bathing Together</h4>


    Xu Wendong courteously said: "Since the Female Emperor has invited me, I must honor the invitation!"


    Immediately, Xu Wendong sent a message to Fei Yan and the others, asking them to return to Zhaixing Building and wait for him, while he followed Leng Youniang to a range of mountains two thousand miles north of Shangqing Country.


    In the mountains, there was a pce of grandiose momentum, carved from the rare white jade, unmistakably an Immortal Mansion.


    "Young Master Xu, please!"


    Arriving in front of the Immortal Mansion, Leng Youniang made a gesture of invitation, leading Xu Wendong inside.


    Within the Immortal Mansion, many stunning maids could be found, each a rare beauty, her extraordinary charm nearly overwhelming Xu Wendong.


    Finally.


    Under the guidance of Leng Youniang, Xu Wendong met the Female Emperor Bi Yao in a spacious study!


    The dress was fiery red, vibrant but not demonic,plementing her otherworldly beauty and elegance.


    The appearance of the Female Emperor was a rare beauty in the world.


    Her eyebrows were like distant mountains shrouded in mist, as the expression was understated yet brimming with heroism: her eyes were like autumn waters, exuding wisdom and gentleness in their gaze.


    An erect nose, like jade pirs reaching the heavens, outlined the face’s determination and nobility; lips like cherries, naturally red, seemed able to utter the world’s most moving verses upon opening.


    If touching skin like congealed fat, whiter than snow, it felt delicate and smooth, like lilies blooming under the moon, elegant and refined.


    The Female Emperor’s body was unique, like an artwork carefully sculpted by the heavens.


    Shoulders were slender, waist thin and flexible, standing gracefully like a willow swaying in the wind, showing both fragility and resilience.


    The curvature of her chest was gentle and beautiful, embodying the softness and charm of a woman.


    Her rounded hips, taking agile steps, naturally exuded an indescribable allure and style.


    She was a captivating ancient-style masterpiece. Her looks and figure were the perfect gifts of nature, making people bend in admiration.


    Her extraordinary temperament and unparalleled charm were even more awe-inspiring.


    The moment he saw the Female Emperor.


    Xu Wendong couldn’t help but recall the memories involving the Female Emperor during his search for Yin and Yang Fish in the Land of Fortune, now akin to a dream.


    Without more thoughts, he quickly bowed in respect: "Greetings, Female Emperor!"


    Bi Yao was gazing at an ancient manuscript, hearing Xu Wendong’s voice without lifting her head, andzily said: "Youniang, you may withdraw!"


    "Yes!" Leng Youniang bowed and exited.


    As she exited and closed the door, Bi Yao put down the book, raised her head to look at Xu Wendong, her lively eyes revealing a subtle smile: "Long time no see, I didn’t expect your achievements now to be so remarkable!"


    Xu Wendong cleared his throat, barely suppressing his inner anxiety: "All things have their fate. After parting in the Land of Fortune, my fortune arrived."


    "All because of Your Majesty."


    "Your Majesty is my benefactor."


    Bi Yao lightly shook her head, speaking softly: "No need to be so tense before me, nor deliberately tter me. If I truly wanted to kill you, I wouldn’t have let you go back then."


    Xu Wendong forced a smile: "But you are ultimately the Female Emperor of the Human Race."


    Bi Yao’s lofty gaze became much gentler at that moment: "But I am also a woman, right?"


    Xu Wendong was stunned.


    Indeed!


    Though she is the high and mighty Female Emperor of the Human Race.


    She is still a woman!


    Bi Yao gently asked: "Walk with me?"


    "May I wash first?" Xu Wendong felt embarrassed, previously using his physical body to withstand the Five-Colored Divine Thunder, his injuries healed but looking quite shabby.


    A vague blush rose on Bi Yao’s face: "There’s ake in the back mountain, we can bathe there together."


    Damn!


    So direct?


    Xu Wendong’s heart raced, though he and Bi Yao had dual-cultivated in the Land of Fortune, it was for the benefit of drawing out the Yin and Yang Fish.


    What he hadn’t expected was that the high and almighty Female Emperor was still willing to have a rtionship with him!


    He instinctively swallowed, unable to help but sigh: "Smoke rising from the ancestral grave of the Xu family!"


    Bi Yao’s face turned red, her inner feelings were like a shy fawn, she led Xu Wendong away from the Immortal Mansion, moving along the winding trail towards the back mountain.


    Looking at the tall and charming figure ahead, Xu Wendong felt everything was unreal; after all, this was the high and mighty Female Emperor of the Human Race.


    Thinking of what might happen next, his breath became slightly heavy, a certain part also slightly lifted its head.


    "No good presence, not a bit of willpower!"


    "I haven’t let you suffer usually!"


    Xu Wendong scolded his second brother for being unworthy, then diverted the topic, curiously asking: "Your Majesty, I have some questions, I wonder if you could answer."


    Bi Yao gently said: "No need for such formality between us, just call me by name!"


    Xu Wendong smiled awkwardly: "Calling by name seems impolite, how about I call you Sister Yao... uh... or Younger Sister Yao!"


    "This name is quite nice." Bi Yao breathed quickly.


    No one ever called her that.


    Though she was much older than Xu Wendong.


    She felt that calling her Younger Sister Yao closed the distance between them.


    "I want to know, why did the Eight Great First-Rank Cultivation Nations forbid cultivators to ascend?" Xu Wendong asked what was on his mind.


    Bi Yao’s steps slightly staggered, her expression turning serious: "This matter is a ssified secret of the Eight Great First-Rank Cultivation Nations, not to be disclosed to others."


    Xu Wendong showed a look of disappointment.


    But Bi Yao continued: "However, you are my Daoist couple, technically considered royalty, I suppose it doesn’t matter to tell you."


    "This is rted to the invasion of Otherworldly Demons."


    "It’s said that after the invasion, they upied the Heavenly Court, iming the Immortal Realm, killing many Immortals, even divine beings!"


    "Our Three Realms were heavily wounded."


    "The prohibition on ascending is to avoid bingmbs to the ughter."


    "But this cannot be told to the citizens of the Cultivation World."


    Xu Wendong’s heart suddenly trembled, this differed from the history he knew, he was aware of the invasion of Otherworldly Demons, but the Azure Dragon had told him they had repelled them!


    Never expected, the demons still upied the Immortal Realm.


    After pondering a moment, Xu Wendong added: "Was the Lock Heaven Great Formation ced by the Human Race’s strong to seal the Demon Realm also due to this matter?"


    Bi Yao gently said: "Yes, we cannot disclose the truth to the world, otherwise chaos would ensue. We could only seal the Demon Realm by this method, prohibiting the Demon Race from ascending."


    "However, our good intentions might have been seen as malice by the Demon Race!" This spoke a hint of bitterness.


    Xu Wendong’s face dramatically changed.


    Until now.


    He only recalled the ascension of Xu Fan, Zhong Qiu, and Jiang Xueyao.


    If the Immortal Realm was lost, wouldn’t their ascension mean encountering enormous danger?
