--- Chapter 318 ---
The next day.
Everyone in the Demon Imperial City resumed their routine as usual. Even though the Lightning Calamity yesterday shook them, Huan Caiyi's words as the Demon Empress were enough to calm them down.
Huan Caiyi's words were like this, "Consort Yu was breaking through in his cultivation base. There is no need to panic."
Of course, this was complete nonsense. Those who have reached very high cultivation, like Sovereign Profound Realm, knew a breakthrough wouldn't trigger a heavenly phenomenon like that.
However, it's enough. The people only need comfort, not the truth.
Knowing the truth would only make things worse.
...
...
A few miles away from the Demon Imperial City, a mansion of the Huan Family stood amongst ancient, tall trees. Huan Caiyi brought them here after the palace became unsuitable for everyone to stay, including the servants.
Truthfully, this place was a place for retreats. Huan Caiyi usually stayed to cultivate for months. Even then, the old mansion wasn't dirty and looked very neat from the inside out.
Huan Caiyi faced Chu Yuechan with a wooden sword made of profound wood in her hand. Chu Yuechan also held the same weapon, leaving no opening for her.
"Who do you think is going to win?" asked Yujin. The sloth-like golden bird is playfully tossing roasted cashew nuts into her mouth, expecting a good fight between Huan Caiyi and Chu Yuechan.
Beside Yujin are Yu Long, Chu Yueli, Thalia, and "surprisingly" Tempest!
Yes, you heard that right.
This so-called Heavenly King was 'actually' in the Demon Imperial Palace this whole time and was in a deep sleep when Thalia and Chu Yuechan triggered Lightning Calamity. Even then, this bird didn't awake from her sweet dream.
It's not until one of the servants digs the debris that they discover the asleep Tempest.
Of course, Tempest was shocked to find the palace was ruined beyond recognition.
More than that, she submitted to Yujin upon meeting her.
The hierarchy between bird-type Profound Beasts is obvious.
"I think... The Sword Lady is going to win, right?" Tempest replied as she had seen Chu Yuechan fight Poseidon. Of course, this doesn't mean she looks down on Huan Caiyi because she also has fought this Demon Empress a few times. The Demon Empress was not to be underestimated.
"No, the Demon Empress should win," said Thalia rationally.
"Although Senior Yuechan has Frosthild, she couldn't use it in a spar. Let's not talk about the numerous disadvantages she had. The only thing she's better than the Demon Empress is her path of the sword."
"Cultivation base, experience, profound arts," Chu Yueli commented. "My sister is weaker in these aspects than the Demon Empress."
"What do you think, Master?"
Yu Long leaned on the fence lazily, "I told them not to go overboard. Caiyi couldn't use her Golden Crow's power, or the surrounding fire would burn to ashes in seconds."
"Yuechan wasn't restricted. She could use her supreme swordsmanship and ice powers freely."
"Then, my sister is going to win?" Chu Yueli tilted her head in confusion.
"No, she's going to lose..." Yu Long yawned as if he had seen things coming.
"..." Chu Yueli and others.
...
Huan Caiyi smiled faintly, "I didn't expect we would face each other this way, Lady Chu."
"Mm." Chu Yuechan nodded gently, surging with battle spirit.
"Shall we start?"
"Yes."
Clank!
The sound of metal hitting metal echoed in the backyard. It was a unique characteristic of profound wood, which hardened in response to Profound Energy injection.
The purer one's Profound Energy is, the "harder" the profound wood becomes.
The profound wood could also react to one's elemental attributes.
However, the effect is less than desired. So, people only used profound wood as training materials.
Maybe there is a hidden potential behind profound wood.
Swoosh!
Huan Caiyi slashed her sword at Chu Yuechan. Her figure strode forward confidently, leaving one afterimage after another.
Chu Yuechan breathed in, adjusting her senses. She trusted her senses more than her eyes.
After all, fighting an experienced fighter like Huan Caiyi demands a lot of things.
BAM!
Huan Caiyi suddenly appeared behind Chu Yuechan, punching her with her free hand.
Chu Yuechan anticipated this and created an ice barrier before slashing her sword horizontally.
"Defend and counter." Huan Caiyi watched the sword slice the ice barrier and come right at her neck. "Not bad."
"But green!"
Huan Caiyi bent her waist and smacked the incoming sword with an air blast, deflecting it away.
BOOM!
The ice barrier exploded due to the air blast, and Chu Yuechan was flying away.
Huan Caiyi jogged toward the flying Chu Yuechan, "Wind Arrows."
Several rotating winds appeared around Huan Caiyi and chased after Chu Yuechan.
Chu Yuechan obviously won't take this attack ahead. She rolled her body and thrust her sword, causing the airflow around her to tremble with growing sharpness.
"Heavenly Wolf Slash!"
Auuuu!
An icy white wolf appeared and met with the wind arrows straight ahead, thrashing them with furious claws.
BOOOOOM!!
As the icy white wolf landed, the ground cracked and split in half toward Huan Caiyi.
Huan Caiyi stood still, unscathed by the scattered sword energy.

Chu Yuechan stared at Huan Caiyi and mumbled, 'After visiting the secret realm with the Master, the Demon Empress's strength has improved beyond a leap.'
'In the past, I could definitely beat her in a few slashes.'
'But now? I can feel a suffocating feeling of Divine Beast and something more from her body.'
In Chu Yuechan's eyes, Huan Caiyi isn't too different from a human-shaped Divine Beast. Of course, this was just a feeling.
Huan Caiyi's power was 'willingly' sealed by Yu Long. After all, she has no complete control over her new power and doesn't want to kill someone accidentally.
The current Demon Empress only has 30% of her full power. Even then, this 30% is much stronger than herself before getting Golden Crow's blood.
And don't forget that Huan Caiyi still has Wind Elemental Power.
"Let's take this up a notch." Huan Caiyi suddenly smirked, and her body transformed under everyone's gaze. Half her body becomes bright green, followed by a royal palace robe and a fairy wing. Her other half becomes fiery golden, matching the other half of the royal robe, but with a crow-like wing instead.
Huan Caiyi sighed in relief, "I call this state of mine Windfire Divine Form."
"In this form, I can use both Elemental Wind Power and Golden Crow's Divine Flame."
"However, as you can see and feel, it was unstable, which means I won't use my Golden Crow's side to attack."
Chu Yuechan frowned slightly, "It's powerful."
"But all I have to do is cut it apart..."
Hearing Chu Yuechan's determined reply, Huan Caiyi couldn't help but chuckle.
"You're right." Huan Caiyi jumped toward Chu Yuechan, appearing before her eyes instantly.
Chu Yuechan's eyes widened because Huan Caiyi was too fast.
She swung her sword, but it was too late as the Demon Empress launched her attack first. Several wind arrows already covered the surrounding area, leaving no spot to dodge.
"Sword Domain - Silence." Faced with troublesome attacks, Chu Yuechan decided to break them all. She shouted, and a sword cry echoed in the air, destroying everything with pure sharpness.
Chu Yuechen successfully repelled Huan Caiyi and finally had enough room to breathe. She ran her Profound Art and tried to recover more energy before launching the next attack.
Chu Yuechan knew Huan Caiyi wouldn't stay put, so she placed her sword upward and entered a defensive stance.
As expected, Huan Caiyi harrassed Chu Yuechan with her Windfire Sword Techniques and launched one attack after another, exploiting the Sword Master's weak foundations.
"They are going to destroy the backyard at this point," said Chu Yueli with a helpless look. "We just moved here, and this place will suffer the same fate as the palace..."
"Don't worry, it's going to be over soon." Yujin sighed in helplessness.
"What do you mean?" Thalia raised her eyebrow.
Yujin glanced at Yu Long as if he were a shady person and replied, "At the end of the day, this was only a spar between Caiyi and Yuechan. There is no need to go all out."
"Yuechan didn't use her sword intent fully, and the same goes for Caiyi, as she didn't use any destructive moves."
"They knew the surrounding area couldn't take their exchanges."
"So, this will be their last attack."
After hearing Yujin's comment, everyone focused on Huan Caiyi and Chu Yuechan again.
Chu Yuechan recovered her energy, and sword intent in her body burst the water out of a dam. Her eyes became determined and gained a strange glint.
"Heavenly Snow Slash!"
She slashed out her last attack, which resulted in the sword in her hand shattering into pieces. Even then, the attack was 'successfully' thrown.
Huan Caiyi blinked her eyes and watched countless snowflakes falling from the sky. It was an illusion, obviously, but each of these snowflakes was 'naturally' bomb-filled with sharp sword intent.
She laughed a little, "Interesting."
"Wind Storm Domain - Nine Demonic Dragons Dance!"
The Wind Elemental appeared beside Huan Caiyi and released a strange cry, summoning nine dragons made of wind power. The dragons roared and danced around Huan Caiyi as she flew toward Chu Yuechan.
The sword in Huan Caiyi's hand transformed into a long, wind spear with a tornado-shaped speartip, spinning at extreme speed.
"Nine Dragons Cyclone Spear. 10,000 Heavenly Rotations!"
Two attacks met in the air, canceling each other fiercely.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Some trees, rocks, and statues in the backyards turned into dust instantly.
Huan Caiyi's spear was one inch away from Chu Yuechan's chest.
And Chu Yuechan didn't have any weapon in her hand.
Chu Yuechan's eyes widened before smiling a little, "I lost."
"Yes, you are." Huan Caiyi smiled back.
"But you're also powerful, Yuechan."
"I must be for my Master." Chu Yuechan replied firmly.
"No, "We" must be for him." Huan Caiyi shook her head gently, stretching her hand to Chu Yuechan.
Chu Yuechan saw this and understood the meaning behind Huan Caiyi's words. She shook Huan Caiyi's hand and chuckled, "Let's become stronger together for Master."
That day, Yu Long's Harem become closer with each other.
