Ye Qingxian fought the members of the Divine Fist Sect. Most of the sect’s disciples were at the Foundation Establishment Realm, while its Elders were at the Tongxuan Realm. Their Supreme Elder, a cultivator at the Heavenly King Realm, was guarding the sect and had not emerged.
Seeing Ye Qingxian attack, they had no choice but to fight back. As the clash began, the Elders of the Divine Fist Sect were brimming with confidence. One of the younger ones even shouted, "Young lady, stand down! You are no match for us."
His words had barely faded when he was proven wrong. Ye Qingxian unleashed her Tongxuan Mystique: Stars Falling Through the Nine Heavens. It was as if innumerable stars were plummeting from the sky, forcing the Elders and disciples of the Divine Fist Sect onto the defensive.
A Tongxuan Mystique was typically useless for an ordinary person. Only the mystiques of those favored by destiny were terrifyingly potent and possessed true lethal power.
「At the same time.」
Rui’er, her father, and the other Kings and Sect Leaders who had lost children arrived at the capital gates of Xiuyuan Country. They had agreed to gather here before storming the palace together. They believed that the Three Realms could not tolerate a person like Wu Tian any longer. He was simply too terrifying. He killed others, yet no one could kill him! He flouted all rules and worldly constraints, killing as he pleased. To allow such a man to remain in their lands was a threat to everyone.
"It seems not everyone is here," Rui’er’s father said, his brow furrowing slightly as he took a count.
"Some suspect that Wu Tian wasn’t the killer," another King said with a frown. "If he were, why would he leave his own name, ’Killer: Wu Tian,’ at the scene?"
Many had died across the Three Realms, and some of the bereaved families were more rational than others. Not everyone who came today was convinced of Wu Tian’s guilt. They simply wanted to question him and subject him to their scrutiny to determine if he was truly the killer.
Rui’er was not happy about this. Her father, having spent so much time with her, had fallen under her influence. He snorted, "You’re all muddled. Wu Tian is an arrogant man who even dared to kill the Divine Emperor’s own representatives in the Mortal Realm, the Law Enforcers. For someone like him to commit murder and leave his name behind is perfectly in character."
Rui’er’s mother chimed in, "All of you, think! Your sons, daughters, and elders were murdered by Wu Tian for no reason. Don’t you think they want you to avenge them swiftly? Why are you hesitating?"
The other Kings and Queens could only nod. Among them were Ye Qingxian’s parents, the Monarch and Queen of Qin Country. The Monarch of Qin had many sons, several of whom had died recently, with the words "Killer: Wu Tian" found on the walls near their bodies. With a troubled expression, he said, "This series of murders is so convoluted... we have no idea what the truth is. Sigh, if only Qingxian were here. With her intellect, she would quickly get to the bottom of these killings."
As soon as he finished speaking, a chorus of agreement rose from the other Monarchs, Queens, and Sect Leaders who had heard of Ye Qingxian’s reputation.
"Exactly."
"That’s right."
"Who doesn’t know about Ye Qingxian’s intelligence?"
They all praised her one by one.
Rui’er was not pleased. She was only eight. Once she was older, she would surely be Ye Qingxian’s equal.
The Monarch of Qin froze, his eyes narrowing. "My daughter! Isn’t that my daughter? Who is she fighting?" He was extremely worried. Without Ye Qingxian, the trivial affairs of state are a constant headache. Without her, my kingdom seems doomed to remain a two-star power forever. But he also knew that Ye Qingxian felt no sense of belonging to Qin Country. If only she did... that would be the day Qin Country rises! The deaths of my other sons, whether they’re connected to Wu Tian or not, can wait. Right now, I need to help Ye Qingxian. The best way would be to stage a ploy of feigned injury. That way, she’ll feel indebted to me, her father. Then, she’ll finally help Qin Country.

However, the Monarch of Qin was a man of only average intellect, and Ye Qingxian saw through his ploy instantly with a cold sneer. If I had no talent, I’d have no standing in that cold Royal Palace. Even with my talent and status, this so-called father of mine tried to match me with that Heavenly Emperor Xiao Tian. To him, I’m just a tool.
"Alright, Father. You said you’d handle it, so I’ll leave it to you. I’m leaving now," Ye Qingxian said, leaping out of the battle. If you want to play games, you can play them by yourself.
"How can this be?" The Monarch of Qin was dismayed. In my plan, I desperately save my daughter, she’s moved to tears, and then we fight these people together. But she actually just... left? Like I told her to? Now, with everyone charging at him, how could he possibly be their match?
