Battle Through the Heavens: Taking advantage of Xun'er's naivety, trick her into becoming

Chapter 86 With her husband backing her up, she sweeps across the Northwest Region

Three days later.

Wearing a long imperial robe, Long Xiyu sat on the throne, looking down at her ministers with pride.

"After all this time, the so-called new emperor turns out to be just a young girl. What a laughingstock!"

An old, white-bearded minister led the mocking laughter.

As a veteran of three reigns, holding a high position and wielding great power, his leadership immediately prompted a chorus of voices from the surrounding ministers.

"The late emperor's body is barely cold, yet a woman has usurped the throne; this is truly a great misfortune for our Mulan Empire!"

"This woman is unworthy to be the new emperor of the Mulan Empire. She should be immediately deposed and torn apart by five horses as a warning to others!"

"This woman should be killed, and a new ruler should be installed!"

In a short period of time, the situation in the imperial court became one-sided.

None of the ministers who had previously sided with Long Xiyu stood up to refute her.

Many people even turned against him, joining the others in condemning Long Xiyu.

"This old minister believes that at this critical juncture, we should invite the three elders of Mulan Valley to step forward and take charge!"

The white-bearded old minister looked around and suddenly said in a serious tone.

From beginning to end, he never once looked at Long Xiyu on the throne.

They don't take her seriously at all!

With the passing of the late emperor, the power of the Mulan royal family had already been largely dismantled.

If the Mulan royal family didn't still have some popular support, they would probably have been overthrown long ago.

"What Lord Wei says is absolutely right; I agree!"

"I second that proposal!"

"..."

In a short while, more than half of the people in the court were kneeling.

The remaining small group of ministers exchanged glances and then knelt down as well.

"How dare you plot to usurp the throne!"

The old eunuch standing next to Long Xiyu was furious and immediately rebuked everyone.

"Heh~"

The white-bearded old minister, known as the Duke of Wei, glanced disdainfully at the old eunuch and said indifferently, "A mere woman dares to claim legitimacy? We are merely upholding the state and consolidating the court!"

"There's no need for Lord Wei to say more of these high-sounding words."

Long Xiyu, who had remained silent until now, suddenly stood up, looked down at the crowd, and asked, "However, I would like to ask you all today, do you truly believe that Mulan Valley can intimidate the royal family?"

"The royal family is weak; Mulan Valley is the future!" Duke Wei said without any attempt to hide his feelings.

In the Dou Qi Continent, strength reigns supreme!

Without strength, all morality and patriotism are nothing but bullshit!

"Xi Yu, you've seen it yourself. Is the Mulan Empire still worth your continued sacrifice?"

Xiao Bai slowly walked out from behind the hall and asked.

It was naturally his idea for Long Xiyu to appear in the court dressed as an empress.

As his woman, why should I pretend?

If you really want to become emperor, then do so openly and honorably!

"They...don't deserve it, but the people of the Mulan Empire do!"

Long Xiyu's face was resolute; her greatest ideal was to build a great empire!

This has never changed!

If the ministers are incompetent, just replace them with a new batch!

"it is good."

Xiao Bai nodded slightly and said, "Since you have made up your mind, then I will naturally grant your wish."

Um? ?

Xiao Bai's tone left everyone somewhat puzzled.

When he was talking to Long Xiyu, he actually referred to himself as "husband"?

The relationship between them makes one wonder.

"Gentlemen, will you die yourselves, or will I help you?" Xiao Bai said casually.

It was as if killing everyone was just a trivial matter.

"How dare you, a mere brat with blond hair, be so arrogant?"

Lord Wei glared coldly at Xiao Bai and angrily rebuked him, "When I was roaming the four seas and eight wastelands, you were probably still nursing somewhere!"

The terrifying aura of a peak-level Dou Wang permeated the entire arena, chilling everyone to the bone.

The next second, Duke Wei made his move, ready to kill Xiao Bai on the spot and shake the court.

"Noisy."

Xiao Bai lightly lifted his foot and stomped on the ground, and a terrifying aura instantly erupted, shattering Wei Gong's energy in an instant.

While a peak Dou Wang (Battle King) is indeed powerful, he can only bow down before a man who has fused with the essence and blood of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor.

The residual power of that drop of blood essence directly enabled Xiao Bai to break through to the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Huang level, spanning more than one major realm!

After several days of recuperation, his injuries have basically recovered.

Let alone sweeping through the small Mulan Valley, even sweeping through the entire Northwest Region would be a piece of cake!

"Pfft~"

Lord Wei coughed up a mouthful of blood and stared at Xiao Bai in disbelief.

Just as he was about to say something, he was suddenly engulfed by a ball of red flame and turned to ashes on the spot.

The terrifying scene made the ministers tremble with fear.

Many people immediately prostrated themselves on the ground, begging for mercy.

Xiao Bai showed no mercy, and with a wave of his hand, he wiped out all the ministers who had submitted to Mulan Valley.

"Come on, I'll go with you to Mulan Valley," Xiao Bai said with a smile.

"Hmm~"

Long Xiyu nodded slightly and followed beside Xiao Bai, looking as pure and lovely as a girl next door, a stark contrast to her domineering empress image just now.

……

After a while.

Xiao Bai and Long Xiyu soared through the sky and arrived at Mulan Valley.

"This is... Empress Mulan?"

The guards of Mulan Valley changed their expressions slightly upon seeing Long Xiyu. Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Xiao Bai, they instantly lost their fighting ability and fled in panic.

Before attending court, Long Xiyu had already revealed her true identity to the world, so it was not surprising that the guards of Mulan Valley recognized her.

Long Xiyu did not stop, but continued forward, heading towards the deepest part of Mulan Valley.

This was the most exhilarating moment of her life.

Although she was the Crown Prince of the Mulan Empire and now the Empress of Mulan, she lived in constant fear, terrified that one day the empire would fall, her relatives would be slaughtered, and she would die a miserable death in the wilderness.

But now that Xiao Bai is backing me up, things are different.

"Oh, what day is it today? His Majesty has actually come to my Mulan Valley in person."

In the distance, the three elders of Mulan Valley—the tiger-headed man, the lion-headed man, and the bear-headed man—walked over together.

The other powerful figures arrived from different directions and surrounded Xiao Bai and Long Xiyu.

"Empress Mulan? Haha, she is indeed strikingly beautiful. She immediately hooked up with a pretty boy after revealing her daughter."

"It's absolutely hilarious. In all my years, this is the first time I've ever seen someone try to become emperor by relying on their beauty."

"That lustful pretty boy, blinded by lust, dares to come here without even knowing where he is! Take him down, and today we'll overthrow the Mulan Empire!"

No one took Xiao Bai and Long Xiyu seriously at all.

If the late emperor were still alive, the imperial family would still have its foundation, and people would not dare to act recklessly.

But now, times have changed.

In the present-day Mulan Empire, Mulan Valley is the true ruler!

"Just trash, and you dare to bark and howl?"

In Xiao Bai's eyes, the elders of Mulan Valley, powerful dukes and marquises, were nothing more than a bunch of clowns.

They can be destroyed with a flick of the wrist!

"You brat, who are you calling trash?" the bear-headed man roared.

Xiao Bai smiled faintly upon hearing this and said:

"Hey, don't get agitated. I'm not targeting anyone in particular. I'm saying everyone here is trash."
