King Of Seven Realms

"This empress never asked for anyone's permission. This empress was going to do it without anyone's consent!" Caiyi said, devoid of any emotions.

Her voice made other despair more. They knew for sure now that there is nothing that can save them from becoming Caiyi's slave.

Duke Huai was sweating buckets, and with Jasmine behind him, who has locked on him with her pressure, did not help in the least.

Caiyi looked down at the family's head and was about to wave her hand when everyone heard a voice.

"There can be no tyrants where there are no slaves; trying to save your own subjects, if not tyranny then what else? You are not worthy for the seat of Demon Emperor."

Everyone's attention diverted from where the voice came from. They saw a medium stature man, looking elegant and handsome, with a rather pale face.

Overall, he looked as though he was a weak scholar, yet he was emitting an extremely frightening pressure from his entire body. He dressed in a red robe and looked only around thirty years old.

Duke Huai, seeing him, became happy, "Lord Ming!"

Caiyi narrowed her eyes as her bloodl.u.s.t could be felt to be everywhere. They felt a deep hatred in her eyes. It made them shuddered since it felt like she would go to any length to kill Duke Ming.

"This empress was waiting for you, Duke Ming. For a moment, this empress thought that you will not leave your turtle shell, and this empress would have to personally visit you." Caiyi said.

Duke Ming frowned when his gaze fell upon her. Since he had memories of the late Little Demon Emperor, he knows more about Golden Crow and its inheritance than others.

Though he could not found out exactly what, he could tell that something about Caiyi was different. Surprise colored his face when he felt that her strength has reached the Peak of Sovereign Realm.

But it only lasted for an instant. So what if she reached the Peak of Sovereign Realm? Can she fight the whole Demon Realm or the families supporting him, alone?

He looked towards Wang Lei, who was looking towards him with an amused expression. Duke Ming knew that whatever was happening right now, or the changes in Caiyi are somehow related to him.

But he did not confront him as there was something else he needed to take care of.

"I was never hiding, Caiyi. But for you to use the taboo Slave Imprint on your objects is shaming the whole Demon Realm! It is better that you surrender willingly, or we would have no other choice but to 'force' you to do."

Smirk forms on Caiyi face as she said, "And what if this empress does not want to surrender? What 'force' are you going to use on this empress? This empress is eagerly waiting."

Duke Ming shook his head; sighing, he said, "Even if you have become a Peak Sovereign, you cannot face us, Caiyi. Stop embarrassing yourself, and give up."

Families that supported Caiyi had ugly faces when they heard Duke Mind's words. They were fuming with anger.

Caiyi snorted and looked towards Wang Lei, who nodded towards her.

Duke Mind curiously looked towards Wang Lei, trying to see what he was going to do.

Wang Lei, who was enjoying all this, raised his hand as Sakura petals started to gather, soon forming a sword.

Everyone was surprised seeing Sakura petals turning into a sword, but then remembering what happened to Helian Patriarch – they seem to understand now.

Holding the katana, Wang Lei tapped the ground. A gentle ripple produces on it as it travels all over the hall.

Suddenly, everyone felt the space trembling around them. Duke Ming suddenly had a bad feeling, but before he could do something – everyone found themselves in a completely different place.

But after observing their surroundings, they found out that they were at Duke Huai Palace.

Wang Lei created a throne in the air and sat on it, enjoying the surprised faces of everyone.

'I have to say that I really love it when they make a surprise face.'

"Now that we do not have to worry about our surroundings, this empress shall have your head, Duke Ming!"

Caiyi was not surprised by Wang Lei's ability as she has seen him doing even more astonishing things that teleporting others seemed insignificant to her.

"Humph! Then why don't you give it a try?" Duke Ming said as different leaders of Duke Houses joined his side.

Though most were in early Sovereign, Duke still thought that this big force was enough to take care of Caiyi.

Caiyi smirked and points her finger towards them; a colossal sword of about 100 meters was created above her.

It was releasing intense heat as it was made with Golden Crows or Primordial Golden Crows fire.

Duke Huai and Duke Ming's face become pale when they saw the sword. They could feel destruction from that sword. They knew that they would die if that sword hit them.

Caiyi did not care about her surroundings, since she was not in Demon Capital, and did not care about Duke Huai Palace – she emotionlessly looked towards them and launched the sword.

<Fifth Stage: Golden Annihilation>

Duke Ming and his group shouted and used their energies in hope of stopping it. The sword reached them and colloid with their energies (barriers).

A loud explosion happened, creating a mushroom in the sky.

Whistle* Wang Lei whistled, impressed by the destructiveness of her attack. He thought of using it in the future since it looked cool.

"She is becoming more like you," Jasmine said.

Wang Lei raised a brow and asked, "In which way?"

"She is showing off."

"…"

'I never showed off, right?' Wang Lei thought. But then remembering his fights back, he could only smile since he did show off most of the time.

Even the entry he made during the Hundred Year Region Ceremony was because he thought it made him look cool.

As the dust clears, everyone could see the worn-down figure of Duke Ming. His hair was burned with different burning scars all over his body.

It was plain to see that even with everyone's help, he was not able to take the full brunt of Caiyi's attack.

Though he was able to come out safe somehow, most of the Dukes were not as lucky as him – half of them were burned to cinders.

Coughing, Duke Ming looked towards Caiyi and asked, "How…?"

He could not understand how she was able to become this strong suddenly. Even Peak Sovereign should not be able to releases such a blast.

Caiyi looked towards him with disdain and said, "This empress is not obliged to tell you that."

She vanished from her place and appeared in front of him.

Duke Ming hurriedly channeled his energy in his hands. Dark flames spout out from his hands and formed a skull.

He strikes towards her, but his eyes widen when his hand passed through her. Suddenly, he heard a voice from his behind, "Is that the art that you created after stealing Golden Crow's Legacy?"

Spinning his body, he does a horizontal swing with his hand, but again, it passes from her.

"Though it is quite powerful, but not even close to Golden Crow's."

Duke Ming looked back and saw her standing a little further away from him. Now, he knew that he was too weak to fight her.

So he thought of escaping. 'As long as I am alive, I can come back with twice the force!' he thought and started preparation to use Blood Escape to run away. 'Though it would damage my cultivation, I can restore it back with time.'

Smirking, Duke Ming said, "So what if you become strong to fight me back Caiyi? In the end, you are borrowing someone else powers to become strong. Remember, you won me because you were using someone else's power and not yours. You are not in a position to be arrogant!" He said later part while looking towards Wang Lei.

He was sure that Caiyi became this strong due to Wang Lei's influence.

"It does not matter from where this empress got her powers from, but the fact that you are going to die by the hands of this empress," Caiyi said.

Duke Ming snorted and started to use his Blood Escape, but when his eyes fell upon Wang Lei, terror flashed in his spine.

He could see Wang Lei smirking at him; it was enough for him to know that something was amiss, and he soon found out.

When he used his Blood Escape, he felt the space around him stagnated. He could not use his Blood Escape anymore!

With an ugly expression, he asked Wang Lei, "What did you do?"

"We cannot have our main villain escape, now can we? Wait until the movie ends." Wang Lei said smirking.

Duke Ming's fist tightens. He knew he could no longer escape now.

"Let this empress end this now and have our revenge!" Caiyi said.

She raised her hand. Her energy started to gather in her hands at a fast pace. It continued to compress until it forms a thin golden flame sword.

She looked towards Duke Mind and started to 'walk' towards him at a slow pace.

Duke Ming gritted his teeth. His mind was working to find the best escape route, but he could find none.

In the end, a sigh escaped from his mouth as he looked towards Caiyi.

With a bitter smile, he said, "Who would have thought that planning of hundred years would come to an end, because of certain someone's interference."

He looked towards Wang Lei for a while, then back to Caiyi.

Taking a deep breath, a smile forms on his face, "If I am going down, then I am taking you with me!"

Dark flames started to gather around his body. He used his remaining power in this attack.

Everyone watched with bated breath as silence took over the whole battlefield.

Crimson black flames suddenly distorted intensely before turning into a tall flame giant.

<Condense>

Duke Ming said. The flame giant covered Duke Ming's body, forming a crimson black armor.

Duke Ming opened his palm as a long crimson sword form in his hands.

Caiyi did not disturb him and let him complete the preparation of his attack.

Soon, both of them stood against each other at some distance.

Both took a step forward and vanished, appearing before each other. But just as their swords were about to touch each other, Duke Ming threw his sword towards Jasmine.

He did not throw it towards Wang Lei since he thought he was just too much mysterious. He thought Jasmine was just a normal girl since she was in her early 10s, but how wrong he was.

He saw with despair when Jasmine just flicked her finger, and the sword dissipated into a void.

"If you had played fair, then you might have had a chance to kill this empress. Too bad, you have chosen the short stick."

Caiyi said and decapitated his head from his body.

Silence retains as his headless body falls on the ground.

After some time, Caiyi looked towards other heads and said, "This empress wants the head of every rebellion within two days, or you can forget about living."

When they heard her, they shuddered and hurriedly nodded. Caiyi placed Slave Imprint on every rebellion family.

She looked back towards Wang Lei and flew towards him. She silently stood in front of him.

Wang Lei could tell that she feeling sad and happy at the same time.

Smiling gently, he c.a.r.e.s.ses her head and said, "You did great, Little Caiyi."

Caiyi smiled and hugged him. She finally completed her revenge. She felt as if a mountain was taken off from her shoulders.

She never felt this free. And all of this was possible due to Wang Lei. It was no surprise that she had special feelings for him.

"You should be tired, let's go. You should rest a little." Wang Lei said, gaining a nod from her.

Taking a step, he vanished with Caiyi and Jasmine.

When everyone saw that she has left, they finally took a sigh of relief. They felt a sword on their throats when she looked at them.

---

Wang Lei appeared in the bedroom or the royal bedroom. Without minding that it was someone else's room, he snapped his fingers as his clothes changed to his nightwear.

He jumped into the bed and sighed, 'Ah~, it feels great. Nothing less from the royal bed, it really is soft and comfortable to sleep.'

Caiyi did not know what to say as she watched Wang Lei, making himself feel at home. She looked towards Jasmine, who had already-used-to-expression.

Jasmine also did not think much and went to the bed.

But just as she thought of sleeping next to Wang Lei, a dark light came out of it and forms You'er.

Wang Lei was surprised by seeing You'er. Smiling, he said, "Did You'er missed me?"

You'er looked towards him and nodded.

'Aw, such an obedient child. If only her other half was the same as her and not gluttony.'

He hugged her as she adjusted herself. Just as Jasmine thought of taking the other side, another light shone. This time it was purple, and another girl came out of it.

This was Jasmine's first time seeing this girl, but she felt that this girl was quite powerful which surprised her.

"How can you sleep with another girl, master?! Look! She is just a little girl!"

Wang Lei looked towards Evil. He examined her from head to toe, making her blush.

"W=what are you looking at, pervert master?!" She said and tried to hide her body in her arms.

"I am still waiting for it, you know." Wang Lei said smirking.

Evil face covered with a blush as she said, "I-I know! I am not a coward! I said I will when we are alone…"

Wang Lei smirked. He grabbed her hand and pulled her in his embrace. His eyes fell upon Jasmine and Caiyi, who was looking towards him as if some kind of trash.

Coughing, he said, "Are you guys not tired? Come and sleep."

They both snorted but still joined him.
