Chapter 1147: Demise of the Crown
Disbelief filled Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s eyes, he looked down at the old tree that pierced through his body and looked back at Queen Goddess, he questioned puzzlingly, “Zitong, why…?”
“Your Majesty,” Queen Goddess cast the old tree and the Tree of Life was covertly siphoning Di Ming’s life force. Blood was gushing out of his body, all the blood essence, cultivation, and Dao he cultivated his entire life was sucked away from him.
She said happily, “I don’t want to be a queen, I want to be the Heavenly Monarch.”
“When I am the Heavenly Monarch, aren’t you the Heavenly Monarch too?” Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s face was distorted, he said, “I thought, we were in love.”
Queen Goddess nodded, she chortled, “Other than Your Majesty, I still have my own male concubines. Yang Hou, what are you waiting for?”
Demon Monarch Yang Yang Hou laughed happily, he lunged toward Celestial Monarch Jin Wu while saying in laughter, “We only slept once, I am not your concubine! I am the ruler of the ancient universe!”
“Of course you are not, you stand on par with me. The ancient universe and Zi Wei will mind their own businesses.” Queen Goddess smiled, she continued, “Qing He.”
A river billowed from far, crashing down at Monarch Jin Tian and sending the monarch backward with blood coughing of his mouth. The Jintian experts around him were also impacted by the sudden attack, they were severed injured and fell off from Monarch Jin Tian’s Six Paths Reincarnation.
Monarch Qing He stood on the surface of the clear river, slamming his hand down on Monarch Jin Tian’s chest while laughing, “To be able to become the head of the concubines of an empress, I’m more than willing to do so!”
Celestial Monarch Jin Wu was shocked and angered, he fluttered his wings and evaded Demon Monarch Yang Hou’s attack. He smirked coldly as he said, “The great Demon Monarch Yang Hou, since when have you become Queen Goddess’s concubine?”
Demon Monarch Yang Hou’s attacks were broad and ferocious, he shouted back, “I said, I am not her concubine, I’ve only slept with her once! She is the ruler of Zi Wei and I am the ruler of the ancient universe! Old bird, I’ve been wanting to kill you for a long time already. I’m now merely using her to achieve that!”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming fixated his eyes at Queen Goddess, his voice was hoarse, “Who else have you slept with?”
Queen Goddess chuckled, she shot an arrow at Monarch Chang Sheng and answered insouciantly, “Your Majesty, you’ve slept with so many ladies, and have I questioned you before?”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s essence was siphoned away into the Tree of Life to restore its life. He explained bitterly, “I am the Heavenly Monarch, it’s only normal for the subjects to present me their best ladies.”
Queen Goddess forced Monarch Chang Sheng backward, she chuckled, “And now I am the Heavenly Monarch, what’s wrong in having a few male concubines? It is natural too. Frankly speaking, I’ve slept with Mu Xiantian before as well.”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s hairs bristled, he shouted in anger, “You…”
“Otherwise, how would I eliminate him?” Queen Goddess chortled, “Till death, he still thought I’d turn my back on you to help him kill you. What a cute and naive boy.”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s aura faltered, he said coldly, “Your Wuming Clan is annihilated, what’s in it for you?”
“Wuming Clan’s annihilation?” Queen Goddess shook in laughter, “You don’t know what the Wumings are, do you? Wu, are crows; Ming, means white; So Wumings, are white crows. You should understand what this means, do you? King Yi alone was never enough to annihilate the Wuming Clan. And the Wuming Clan, was never my race from the start.”
She shot an arrow at Monarch Yang Zun and Monarch Chang Sheng each to aid Monarch Qing He in the battle. Then, she continued saying calmly, “Your Majesty, you are probably still unaware of it yet. The Yu Lin Army, Tian He, Xing Xiu, Xing Dou, and the rest of the army divisions are all loyal to you. Whereas those remaining in the Heaven Court are loyal to me. Your forces are diminished, gods loyal to you are mostly dead. Now, those left in the Heaven Court are my people. You’ve already lost. It’s time for you to go now.”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming looked at the black crow on the Tree of Life and suddenly realized, he said bitterly, “Who made you these plans? You don’t have the intelligence for all this.”
“Of course I’ve had help from an eminent figure.” Queen Goddess smiled, “This eminent figure connected me with Monarch Qing He. Monarch Qing He has an advisor who helped me rain chaos to the lower worlds and break the peace of your empire. Mister Wuji was also convinced by the eminent figure to follow me. He has friends all over the universe and helped persuaded your subjects to serve under me. It was also Mister Wuji’s strategy to let you and Mu Xiantian battle first so I can easily reap the fruit of victory.”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming looked at her in shock while she laughed. He said, “We are husband and wife, we’ve been through thick and thin for so many years. Have you have no feelings toward me at all?”
Affection filled Queen Goddess’s eyes for a split second, she said, “It’s true that I love you. But, I value the throne more.”
Hu-
A willow arrow shot into Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s forehead, piercing through the back of his head.
Queen Goddess couldn’t let herself witness his death and turned her head around. It was at this moment, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming let out a loud roar and pulled the Tree of Life out of his body.
Then, Dao flowers bloomed in the surroundings covering Queen Goddess in the center. The Dao flowers turned into a sword ray which Di Ming clenched in his hand and lunged forward at Queen Goddess’s forehead!
His hairs bristled and his expression was ferocious, but the sword strike stopped just a split second before it touched the lady monarch’s forehead.
Sweat soaked Queen Goddess’s dress, she was dumbstruck by the sudden change. Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s ferocious face looked like a mad beast in her eyes, but suddenly, his expressions softened away and he slapped on her face, sending her flying backward.
“My life has come to an end, why would I bring you along with me to death.” A smile broke out of Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s face, his mortal body and Yuan Shen were starting to disintegrate as he laughed, “What a heartless bitch you are, but I am not you. I loved you, so I’ll let you live…”
Krong!
