Chapter 765 (Kneel Down!)

Ye Hua gently sucked on Qing Ya's finger and smiled, "I want to create a good show tomorrow and test this Mu Ran!"

"You, bullying a girl who risked her life to come here," Donghuang Baizhi chuckled.

Ye Hua's gaze hardened, and he said in a low voice, "If someone is risking their life to come here, they should be prepared to die at any moment!"

Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi knew Ye Hua's character well. He was trying various means to test Mu Ran and see if she could join his team.

Ye Hua felt that the team had almost reached the desired size. Therefore, he wanted to bring her in, but she had to be the best among the best. There were still two idiots outside, and he wasn't sure what was happening with them. Perhaps they would bring some surprises to him.

"Alright, let's go back and rest. After being bored for so many days, there's finally something interesting!" Ye Hua stood up and pulled Qing Ya into his embrace, then he also pulled Donghuang Baizhi into his arms.

They were clearly ready to enjoy themselves.

Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi had gotten used to this, so they continued to indulge Ye Hua's playful behaviour.

"Ye Hua, do you know what you're like right now?" Donghuang Baizhi giggled and said.

Ye Hua held his wives with both hands and asked curiously, "What am I like?"

Qing Ya playfully pouted and said, "A tyrant."

Ye Hua was momentarily stunned, then burst into laughter. "Great! I like that title!"

Qing Ya: "..."

Donghuang Baizhi: "..."

The arrival of the Saintess from the Divine Steppes had caused quite a stir in the Voidless Empire. After all, the Voidless Empire used to be a vassal state of the Divine Steppes. It was likely that the Saintess had come due to this matter.

However, upon seeing the might of the formidable Voidless Empire, all its citizens seemed to believe that the empire was invincible.

The next morning, Mu Ran woke up very early because she intended to go to the palace alone. After all, this was a dangerous task...

However, just as she walked down to the inn's ground floor, she saw three people.

"Miss, where are you planning to go so early in the morning?" Tang Wei asked with a curious smile.

Looking at the three people before her, Mu Ran's eyes slightly reddened, and she smiled faintly, "Sister Tang."

After hearing this, Tang Wei seemed a bit dazed... but she soon smiled and said, "Miss..."

Yet Mu Ran didn't know how powerful that title "Sister" was.

If she recognized Tang Wei as a big sister, then Wei Chang would be her brother-in-law...

What was Wei Chang? One of the Seven Deadly Sins, a direct subordinate of the Supreme Overlord. He was truly one in a million.

So, Mu Ran's unintentional actions seemed like they had already granted her direct entry into the team.

But then again, maybe not.

Because her current identity was all a lie...

Mu Ran glanced at Cang Konghong and let out a faint sigh. The four of them once again arrived at the entrance of the palace.

This time, there was no need for Mu Ran to call out. The palace gates had already opened.

However, this time it was Li Hun...

Another beautiful woman appeared. Mu Ran felt a bit confused. The palace seemed to be filled with beautiful women... If she wasn't the emperor's, then whose could she be?

And what about the empress? Mu Ran was extremely curious...

"Please follow me," Li Hun said softly. She had also seen Mu Ran, the "legend," yesterday and felt a sense of closeness.

"Thank you," Mu Ran said gently.

Zi Shan had also rushed out last night to catch a glimpse of Mu Ran. Everyone was curious about what kind of girl Mu Ran was.

As they entered the palace, Mu Ran felt a heavy pressure, and as they moved further in, the pressure grew stronger. It was difficult to breathe, and even her steps became arduous.

Ordinary people might not feel it, but as a Heavenly Dao Warrior, she could sense this terrifying aura.

Just who was the emperor of this place?

Ascending the steps, Mu Ran appeared to be struggling, sweat trickling down her forehead.

Li Hun, who was walking ahead, seemed relaxed and at ease. This left Mu Ran baffled. Just how strong was this girl? Even she, a Heavenly Dao Warrior, was finding it difficult to ascend the steps, yet this girl seemed so effortless.

Tang Wei and Wei Chang, as "ordinary" people, didn't show any issues.

However, Cang Konghong was about to showcase his acting skills. He mimicked Mu Ran's walking style, which looked quite odd...

Moreover, these steps were exceptionally high. How else could they demonstrate the grandeur of the entire palace?

After a while, Mu Ran finally stepped onto the highest step. She let out a sigh of relief and felt a bit tired... It was like going through a battle.

Li Hun walked into the main hall and respectfully announced, "Your Majesty! The Saintess of the Divine Steppes has arrived!"

"Let her in!"

Upon hearing the deep and steady voice from the main hall, Mu Ran could distinguish that it was a man...

In Mu Ran's mind, she had imagined that the emperor would be an old man, but she didn't expect him to be young.

"Your Majesty, please!" Li Hun looked at Mu Ran and said calmly.

Mu Ran nodded respectfully, slightly lowering her head as she walked into the main hall. Tang Wei and the others followed closely behind.

As soon as Mu Ran entered the main hall, she felt her inner panic magnified infinitely. Her body trembled involuntarily as she looked at the stone bricks beneath her feet. It felt quite peculiar.

With her head down and moving forward, Mu Ran didn't glance to either side, nor did she see Ye Hua sitting on the imperial throne. She was just too nervous.

"Saintess of the Divine Steppes pays respects to His Majesty, long live the Emperor!" Mu Ran respectfully called out. However, she only bowed, while Tang Wei and the others knelt down.

"Bold! In the presence of His Majesty, you should kneel!" Lie Gu said aloud according to the script.

The current situation was quite interesting.

The Supreme Overlord, along with his subordinates, was deceiving a little girl. Yet this clever little girl remained unaware that everyone was acting.

Upon hearing Lie Gu's words, Mu Ran suddenly calmed down. "Kneeling is a matter of court etiquette between a ruler and his subject. I am the Saintess of the Divine Steppes, and I kneel only to the Emperor of the Divine Steppes!"

"How audacious!" Luo Hu coldly rebuked, releasing an intimidating pressure.

Suddenly, Mu Ran felt a heavy weight on her back, and her legs involuntarily sank. But she still held onto her dignity as a weak Heavenly Dao Warrior, resisting with all her might.

Ye Hua sat on the imperial throne, quietly watching. Based on her current performance, she barely passed.

On either side, the Empresses... Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi, maintained their composed expressions. Now was not the time to speak, nor did they need to speak.

However, they did admire the girl below. A small and weak girl dared to infiltrate the Voidless Empire. Quite impressive!

The subordinates standing on either side couldn't help but nod in agreement. Though she might be weaker, her spirit was undeniably strong!

Luo Hu increased the pressure, and Mu Ran's legs could no longer bear it. The pressure felt akin to what her master would release. Her master was a King, a rare existence! [Fighter, Warrior, Master, Grandmaster, King, Emperor, Order, God, Venerable, and Heavenly Venerable]

A crisp sound echoed through the hall as Saintess Mu Ran finally knelt before Ye Hua.

Mu Ran clenched her fists tightly, but in the face of such overwhelming power, she had no means to resist.

"So, is this how the Voidless Empire treats its guests?" Mu Ran asked solemnly, kneeling before Ye Hua.
