------------------------------------------
When the cloaked figure activated the communication magic stone in his hand, thousands of miles away, inside the imperial tomb in the southern part of the Sky City, a delicate gray-haired little girl slowly emerged from the thick mist and walked into the tomb.
Although the little girl’s clothes were worn-out, they couldn’t hide her rare and adorable appearance. With beautiful gray twin ponytails, lively and bright jade-like eyes, curved willow eyebrows, long fluttering eyelashes, flawless fair skin with a hint of rosy blush, thin lips as tender as rose petals, there was no doubt that if this child were to grow up, she would be an unparalleled beauty.
However, at the instant when the guards of the imperial tomb, the Forbidden Army, saw this child, they didn’t have the energy to appreciate her cuteness.
Instead, they instantly showed a solemn expression! Noka, the commander of the Forbidden Army in this area, pulled out his sword from his waist, full of vigilance, and stared at the little girl before him. The hundreds of Forbidden Army members behind him, as well as those on the surrounding high platforms, did the same.
They didn’t relax at all because of the harmless appearance of the other party. After all, in this world, there were many old monsters disguised as loli...
Moreover, the fact that she could silently and undetectedly bypass their investigation, pass through the dense mist barrier surrounding the imperial tomb, and the patrolling guards to arrive here was enough to show that this little girl was extraordinary.
His Majesty Xue Tianao had given orders that the imperial tomb must remain absolutely secure! Noka couldn’t afford to be negligent. He immediately commanded the Forbidden Army to surround the little girl who had arrived here. The vigorous battle aura within the bodies of the Forbidden Army erupted suddenly, and the once quiet area of the imperial tomb became tense and filled with an atmosphere of imminent confrontation.
With aura’s attached to their long swords and assuming an attacking posture, Noka sternly questioned in a loud voice,
"Who are you?! And How did you enter the forbidden area of the imperial tomb!"
Facing Noka’s words, the gray-haired little girl blinked her adorable jade-colored eyes and tilted her head, smiling gently.
"How did I enter? You wanted me to come, right? So I came."
"What did you say?"
Hearing the disdainful words of the other party, Noka’s brow furrowed, and anger surged from his heart.
"I’ll ask again, who are you?! How did you enter?! If you don’t answer, don’t blame us for being impolite!"
"Um..."
Upon hearing this, the little girl pouted and put on a pensive expression.
"How did I enter? Um, your misty rain barrier, wouldn’t it break if you found the formation’s core? Is there any difficulty in that?"
"Difficulty?"
The little girl’s answer made Noka’s brow twitch uncontrollably.
This misty rain barrier was a gift from the Dragon tribe to the Snow Night Empire! It had protected the imperial tomb for hundreds of years! How could it be so easily broken?!
Find the core of the formation? Even someone who is familiar with formations like him doesn’t know where it is…
"Stop With your Bullshit!"
"I’m not!"
The little girl playfully smiled and then glanced thoughtfully at the majestic imperial tomb behind Noka and the Forbidden Army.
"As for who I am, it doesn’t matter. All you need to know is that I’m here to dismantle the imperial tomb."
The girl said in a cute voice. Her voice was sweet, but it instantly angered everyone present.
"Dismantle the imperial tomb? Such blasphemous words!"
Upon hearing this, Noka gritted his teeth. Seeing that the little girl had no intention to say more, Noka hesitated no longer.
He raised his hand and dozens of Forbidden Army soldiers, under Noka’s command, rushed towards the gray-haired little girl from various directions, attempting to apprehend this rebellious person.
How did this girl even get in? That can be questioned later!
However, facing the Forbidden Army soldiers surrounding her, the little girl remained unfazed. Instead, she slowly lowered her head and looked at the small white wolf patted by her in her arms, sticking out her tongue and looking silly.
"The instructions have arrived, sister. We have to hurry…"
’Sister? ’
Noka couldn’t help but show a puzzled expression when the little girl affectionately called a wolf "sister."
’Calling a wolf sister? What’s going on?’
’And instructions? What does that mean?’
...
Unfortunately, Noka didn’t have a chance to ponder these questions further.
As the words of the gray-haired little girl fell, the snow wolf in her arms let out a strange ’meow’ sound and jumped directly out of the little girl’s arms, standing in front of the group of Forbidden Army soldiers.
’This, this wolf?’
However, before everyone could react, a terrifying force of shadow energy burst forth from the body of the small white wolf! It transformed into a horrifying tsunami energy that engulfed everything within the imperial tomb, and the underpowered Forbidden Army soldiers were struck by the sudden storm of power, violently flying out!
Even those who weren’t directly knocked away had their prepared skills shattered by the power fluctuation unleashed by the small white wolf...
’This, this power of shadow? That wolf... Is it an Abyssal Demon?!’
The next moment, under the unbelieving gazes of Noka and others, the small and cute spiritual beast in front of them, whom they thought they could easily slap away, suddenly erupted with earth-shattering and terrifying power. Its body continued to expand, transforming into a mountain-like horrifying presence, standing tall in front of Noka’s formation!
When his own body was locked onto by the ferocious red eyes of the giant wolf, Noka was instantly dumbfounded, standing motionless in his place, unable to snap out of it...
’Shit...’
After cursing, the ferocious giant jaws of the wolf rapidly enlarged in Noka’s eyes...
….
….
With deafening roars and the wailing cries of despair, a few seconds later, including Noka, all 189 members of the Imperial Guards had turned into a horrifying scene of lifeless bodies on the ground. The once solemn and dignified Royal solder was now covered in abundant bloodstains, severed limbs, and scattered entrails, resembling a scene from a hellish nightmare.
Although Noka and the others let out agonizing screams similar to that of slaughtered pigs when they died, the existence of the Mist Rain Barrier prevented the outside world from sensing any disturbance from the inside. Not far from the Tomb, in a nearby neighborhood, the people continued to celebrate the new emperor’s ascension, oblivious to the gruesome scene.
Glancing indifferently at the scattered remains on the ground, the gray-haired little girl, Liyu, shifted her attention to the Royal Tomb ahead, which emitted a constant white light.
Under normal circumstances, when one emperor passed away, the coronation ceremony for the next emperor would usually take place the following year.
During this period, the entire nation would mourn the deceased emperor as per the tradition of the Snow Night Empire, which had remained unchanged for hundreds of years. However, this time, Xue Tianao had defied all objections, even confronting the High Priest, to hold the coronation ceremony in advance and officially become the empire’s emperor.
It was only a formality for the coronation ceremony, so why did the Chosen One attach such importance to it?
To be honest, neither Liyu and the other Demon kings nor the Black Rose family had investigated the reason thoroughly.
However, Xue Tianao must have had his reasons for prioritizing this matter. Since the Chosen One wanted it this way, they could confront him along with these abyss demons~
’That should work out fine~’
After a faint smile, Liyu pointed her hand towards the solemn Royal Tomb ahead and said,
"Sister, let’s blow it up~"
"Meowwwww~" (explooooooosion ~)
Upon hearing her little sister’s destructive command, the giant wolf Limo, who had turned into Limo, let out an excited roar. Then, the adorable giant wolf slowly opened her bloodthirsty mouth full of sharp fangs! In an instant, an infinite crimson shadow power gathered within it, compressing continuously!
The terrifying power fluctuations caused the surrounding space to distort gradually.
In the next moment, the compressed crimson shadow power in the giant wolf’s mouth suddenly burst out!
In an instant, the earth tore apart, and the sky changed color! The devastating red beam rushed towards the Royal Tomb ahead, roaring like a raging and bloodthirsty beast breaking free from its shackles, carrying a vast power that could devour everything in its path!
Under the Annihilation Beam,
Everything turned to ashes~

Meanwhile, inside the Dragon Dance Square, as a tremor spread, the enormous projection that was in the process of crowning Xue Tianao suddenly trembled, and its movements abruptly ceased.
Xue Tianao: "??? Huh?!!
"What... What... What is happening?"
