"That girl..."

Hearing Su Qingyue's innocent words, Xiao Ming couldn't help but feel touched.

He immediately smiled and said, "Of course!"

"Your brother Xiao Ming possesses the Chaos Body and has extraordinary comprehension. In the future, he will surely become the Emperor of this era."

"By then, if you wish, you can be the Empress to your brother Xiao Ming!"

These words made Xiao Ming seem like he was coaxing a child, but was Su Qingyue really just a child? Was she truly unable to distinguish right from wrong?

Of course not!

She simply liked him, was willing to foolishly accompany him, without doubt or deep inquiry, and believed in him unconditionally.

Therefore, Xiao Ming didn't mind teasing her a bit to draw them closer.

"Empress?"

Hearing Xiao Ming's words, Su Qingyue's face turned red in an instant, and a glow of happiness spread across her face.

"Empress..."

"That position is too high; I'm afraid I can't take it."

"But Sister Ruo Xuan or Sister Xianhuang might have the potential to become Empress..."

Feeling greatly satisfied, Su Qingyue said impulsively.

Her last words almost made Feng Xianhuang blush.

What did she mean?

She was just Xiao Ming's junior sister; when did she become his Empress?

Could it be that in Su Qingyue's heart, she had long been shaped by Xiao Ming?

"Hmph, if he wants me to be his Empress, he needs to cultivate for ten thousand years!"

Feeling indignant, Feng Xianhuang snorted coldly.

Of course, no matter how she protested, it couldn't change Su Qingyue's thoughts, and Xiao Ming didn't mind this matter either.

He just coughed lightly and took out the storage rings of Zhang Hao and others.

"Let's divide the spoils."

As he spoke, Xiao Ming retrieved a variety of dazzling treasures from the rings of Zhang Hao and others.

If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

There were not only many high-grade spirit crystals but also a considerable amount of pills and spiritual herbs.

Unfortunately, the protective jade pendants, once refined, were closely linked to their owners. If the original owner perished, even if the pendant wasn't activated, the internal seal would be destroyed.

So, even though Zhang Hao and others' protective jade pendants were preserved, they were now useless.

The more valuable items were just these spirit crystals, pills, and some technique jade slips and spiritual weapons.

"Brother Xiao Ming, you killed them, so you should keep the items."

Looking at the numerous treasures before her, Su Qingyue immediately spoke.

They had only helped block a bit earlier, and Xiao Ming had taken care of them all.

So, she felt embarrassed to take the spoils.

"No worries, we're all on the same side, no need to be too polite."

"I'll take this mirror and this jade slip, and the rest you can choose as you like."

Xiao Ming waved his hand.

Though he wasn't overly generous, he wasn't stingy with his own people either.

Among these items, only the Great Sun Heavenly Wheel Mirror from Zhang Hao and the Saint King techniques he cultivated were useful to him; the rest were dispensable.

Of course, for Feng Xianhuang, Su Qingyue, and others, due to the attributes of their cultivation techniques, some items might still be very useful.

"Then I'll take this Red Yin Lingzhi and Cold Jade with Sister Yun Ling."

After Xiao Ming finished speaking, Su Qingyue's eyes flickered as she picked two treasures and stuffed them into Yun Ling's arms.

This made Yun Ling's mouth twitch involuntarily.

"Sister, are you worried that after I return to the Sacred Land, I might report to the Sacred Master, so you're giving me these two treasures to drag me down with you?"

Hearing Yun Ling's words, Su Qingyue felt embarrassed.

Honestly, she had thought about it, but it was inevitable.

After all, Xiao Ming had killed Zhang Hao this time, who was the Holy Son of Fuyou Sacred Land and a disciple of the Fuyou Sacred Master.

Although she had a good relationship with Yun Ling, she was still afraid this senior sister might not be trustworthy.

The best way was to drag her down together or have Xiao Ming win her over.

That would be foolproof.

"I really cared for you, and I didn't expect you to think this way."

Seeing Su Qingyue's embarrassed face, Yun Ling was both angry and helpless, pinching her lightly.

Over the past six months, she had been wholeheartedly devoted to this little junior sister, yet she worried about her betraying Xiao Ming.

Indeed, in the face of love, neither master nor senior sister was as important as her little lover.

"Oh, sister, it just flashed through my mind for a moment. I know you're the best to me and wouldn't do such a boring thing."

"I'll give you my share of the treasures, so please don't mind this."

Seeing Yun Ling a bit angry, Su Qingyue immediately acted coquettishly, which left Yun Ling helpless.

After Su Qingyue took her share, Feng Xianhuang also didn't hold back, choosing two useful treasures, all of which were fire-attributed natural treasures.

"Can we determine where we are in the Ghost Fiend Secret Realm?"

After distributing the spoils, Xiao Ming waved his hand, sketching a map in the void, which was a rough map of the Ghost Fiend Secret Realm.

This was drawn by those who had entered the realm over the generations and survived to exit.

However, due to the vastness of the Ghost Fiend Secret Realm and the few who survived each time, the map couldn't be accurate within ten miles.

"The Ghost Fiend Secret Realm spans a hundred thousand miles, with each terrain different."

"Judging from the terrain we saw during the day, we should be in the southern region's Ghost Head Forest."

Feng Xianhuang looked at the map and pointed to a location below.

"If this is indeed the place, then deep within the Ghost Head Forest, there should be a source of fiendish energy."

"There, we might encounter the five-color fiendish energy and elite monsters with special runes."

Hearing Feng Xianhuang's words, Xiao Ming's eyes lit up.

As for the five-color fiendish energy, he wasn't very interested, but the elite monsters intrigued him.

These things were akin to the red and blue buffs in the game, and obtaining them would significantly boost one's combat power.

They were definitely worth fighting for!

After all, Han Xin once said that if he started with both red and blue buffs, he could take on five opponents and achieve a pentakill.

And with his Chaos Body and numerous techniques, if he could stack a few buffs, he could definitely dominate everyone.

"In that case, let's rest for the night and head to the depths of Ghost Head Forest at dawn!"

With this plan in mind, Xiao Ming told the others.

However, as he finished speaking, his brow furrowed, and he glanced at them suspiciously.

Because at that moment, he heard a faint sobbing sound, like a woman crying.

But seeing that Feng Xianhuang and the others didn't seem to be making such a sound, his pupils couldn't help but contract.

He immediately recalled a rule mentioned in the intelligence given by Fuyou Sacred Land.

Don't turn back when you hear crying!

Could it be...

Was he so unlucky to encounter this eerie situation?!

"Don't move, don't turn back!"

Feeling a chill in his heart, Xiao Ming warned in a low voice, startling Feng Xianhuang and the others, who looked at him with puzzled eyes.

"Did any of you... hear a woman's sobbing?"

As Feng Xianhuang and the others looked over, Xiao Ming took a deep breath and asked gravely.

Upon hearing this, Feng Xianhuang's face changed dramatically.

Su Qingyue and Yun Ling also felt a chill, their faces showing shock and disbelief.

They never expected Xiao Ming to encounter this death rule!
