"How could this be possible?" Ji Hongxia's breath hitched. In just one day, Hongmeng had actually broken through from the Pinnacle Heavenly God to the Middle of Lord God. That was too fast. No, that wasn't right. This speed could no longer be described as fast; it was simply against the natural order.

She did not suspect Hongmeng of hiding his cultivation level; she had had an in-depth exchange with him before and was aware of Hongmeng's true strength.

"You couldn't possibly be a reincarnation of a powerful figure like my junior sister, could you?" Ji Hongxia pondered for a long time. This seemed to be the only explanation.

"What do you think?" Hongmeng smiled, offering no explanation. Some things don't need to be explained too clearly.

"I don't care who you are. For now, you are my little man." Ji Hongxia smiled enchantingly, her slender arm encircling Hongmeng's neck, her breath fragrant.

Every cultivator has their own opportunities and secrets; the more talented and stronger they are, the more they possess. These are things not even the closest person needs to know.

"I'm certainly not little, and I didn't expect you to have such a big appetite!" Hongmeng said with a slight smile, teasing her.

"You're one to talk about a big appetite!" Ji Hongxia gave him a look and said, "I have already spoken to the other Supreme Elders about your situation."

"Jinya colluded with the Yin Yang Sect and deserved death. If the Yin Yang Sect wants to act against you, we in Yaochi will not sit idly by!"

"Mhm, please thank all the Supreme Elders of Yaochi for me!" Hongmeng nodded.

"No need to be polite. After all, you got into trouble with the Yin Yang Sect because you saved me, and Yaochi itself doesn't get along with the Yin Yang Sect!" Ji Hongxia shook her head; they weren't helping Hongmeng out of pure altruism. With the powerful forces behind Hongmeng, forming an alliance with him to jointly deal with the Yin Yang Sect was entirely beneficial and without harm for them.

"Eldest Senior Sister, I don't want to struggle anymore!" Gazing at Ji Hongxia's voluptuous body, Hongmeng felt that his appetite had not been very good recently; it seemed he might need to let a woman take care of him.

Ji Hongxia was startled, then, realizing what he meant, she giggled. With a wave of her jade hand, she said commandingly, "Little brother, serve me well, and I will protect you. I'll ensure your future is filled with the finest pleasures."

"I want them now!"

"No way!"

「In the Tianxing World.」

Great Qin, Xianyang.

From all directions, winds and clouds converged on Xianyang; beauties from the Six Kingdoms entered the palace walls.

Under the deterrence of the Divine Spirits and the Qin Kingdom, the monarchs and ministers of the Six Kingdoms, as well as representatives from the Hundreds of Schools, all submitted their allegiance. They brought with them carefully selected beauties and treasures, gathering in Xianyang.

Firstly, it was to show their submission. Secondly, they were curious to see a Divine Spirit. The latter was the most important purpose for the monarchs, ministers of the Six Kingdoms, and the Hundreds of Schools.

A Divine Spirit! This was an existence of legend. What an honor it would be for a mortal to catch sight of one! Unfortunately, they had all missed the first sacrificial ceremony held by Ying Zheng. They naturally could not afford to miss the second one. If they could receive the Divine Spirit's blessing—even if not for eternal life, at least longevity would be wonderful!

As for whether Divine Spirits truly existed? If anyone still harbored such doubts, they would immediately be verbally torn apart by those around them.

In just these few short weeks, the population of Xianyang City had exploded; aristocrats of the Six Kingdoms and scholars from the Hundreds of Schools could be seen everywhere. However, the most eye-catching were the peerless beauties, each with their own graceful charm and enchanting figures, providing a true feast for the eyes of the people of Xianyang.

There was even a peerless musician whose performance of 'Birdsong in the Empty Mountains' was said to draw hundreds of birds to pay homage as if to a phoenix, her fame spreading far and wide.

「In a private courtyard in Xianyang.」

Ji Wuye sat in the main seat. Looking at the approaching Jade Tiger, he quickly asked, "Tiger, what news have you gathered?"

"General, aristocrats of the Six Kingdoms and scholars from the Hundreds of Schools are converging in Xianyang City, and there's no end to the number of peerless beauties!" Jade Tiger, with his bulging belly, spoke gravely, "Take, for instance, Snow Woman from the Yan Nation's Fei Xue Pavilion. Her beauty is breathtaking and ethereal, and she is known as the most exquisite and charming dancer in all the Yan lands."

"Her dancing is unparalleled in the world, earning her admiration from princes and nobles alike. Proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, her song 'White Snow' is said to melt even the hardiest heart. Furthermore, her signature dance, 'Flying Over the Water,' is lauded as 'the legend of the Yan Nation's capital.'"

"She's merely a dancer. Our Yan Lingji is equally skilled in song and dance. She's adept at various mystical arts, including the Fire Charm Art, and can be as tender as water or as passionate as fire!" Ji Wuye waved his hand nonchalantly, looking towards the alluring and bewitching woman beside him, and smiled, "What do you think, Lady Lingji?"

"It doesn't matter to me!" Yan Lingji, dressed in flames, her snow-white shoulders bared, idly played with the Fire Spirit Hairpin, her enticing voice betraying little emotion.

Although she was quite curious about and somewhat admired the God of Hongmeng, it wasn't as if she absolutely had to be chosen. Ascending to the God's kingdom would certainly be good, but she was indifferent if she couldn't. She had simply made a deal with Ji Wuye to secure Tianze's release. Tianze had once been kind to her, and by saving his life, she had repaid that debt. If she wasn't selected, she would be free.

Ji Wuye was not concerned about Yan Lingji's attitude. He had Jade Tiger gather information so Yan Lingji could be mentally prepared and increase her chances of success.

Ji Wuye asked, "Are there any others?"

"General, Snow Woman may be exceptional, but Yan Lingji is by no means inferior. The greatest threat is from the Yin Yang Sect!" Jade Tiger said, "The Yin Yang Sect was the first to make contact with King Qin; moreover, every disciple of theirs possesses exceptional talent and beauty."

"Dongjun Yanfei of the Yin Yang Sect is devastatingly beautiful and possesses supreme mastery of the Martial Path. A true paragon of grace, few across the lands can match her in status, strength, or beauty."

Ji Wuye nodded silently; he had heard of the reputation of Dongjun Yanfei from the Yin Yang Sect. Her strength was such that even he was not assured of victory if they were to face each other.

"Right Protector Moon God, who is said to be Yanfei's sister, not only possesses profound strength but is also skilled in the mysterious arts of astrology, capable of glimpsing into the past and future and controlling the minds of others."
