Xuanhuan: The Empress and I Swapped Bodies - Chapter 103

At this moment, the Divine Dragon Empress was still unaware that someone had already broken through to the Immortal Emperor Realm on her behalf.

Had she known, her state of mind might have shifted once again.

However, having now mastered the Ancestral Dragon Scripture, the Divine Dragon Empress naturally felt different.

Seven days later, she successfully concluded her cultivation, brimming with confidence.

“I should go tell him—it’s time to switch back. I’ve mastered the Ancestral Dragon Scripture!”

“Hahaha! Finally, it’s done! That process was far too dangerous!”

“Yes, extremely dangerous. I nearly succumbed to Qi deviation at one point. Thankfully, he intervened at the critical moment!”

The Divine Dragon Empress could sense what Ye Wushuang had done for her.

She knew that without his intervention, she might have lost control of her cultivation.

Thus, she felt deep gratitude toward him—though for now, it was merely the gratitude of a life saved.

As for everything else, she remained completely unaware.

“Well, you really should thank him properly. During your seclusion, he didn’t just save your life—he also accomplished many things for the Divine Dragon Empire.”

“What things? What did he do?”

While in seclusion, the Divine Dragon Empress had been cut off from the outside world, so she had no idea what Ye Wushuang had been up to.

But though she was unaware, the Divine Dragon Imperial Seal knew everything—and it was utterly astonished.

Thus, it spoke up:

“First, he added thirty major realms to our Divine Dragon Empire. If you were to use the Divine Dragon Imperial Scripture now, your power would increase dramatically. You wouldn’t even need to fear the most formidable Supreme Realm experts!”

“Thirty major realms?! That would more than double the empire’s territory! Where did he even get them from?”

“Which brings me to the second thing.”

“He led Imperial Advisor Zongzheng and the others to seize those thirty realms from the Vermilion Bird Clan—and not just that, he even refined the Vermilion Bird Sacred Mountain!”

“Seized from the Vermilion Bird Clan?! Impossible!”

“That’s absolutely impossible!”

The moment she heard that Ye Wushuang had taken thirty realms from the Vermilion Bird Clan, the Divine Dragon Empress instinctively rejected the idea.

The Vermilion Bird Sacred Mountain was one of the Ten Great Sacred Mountains of the Demon Race, home to no fewer than five—if not ten—Supreme Realm experts, all of them incredibly powerful.

How could Ye Wushuang and his small group of three possibly have snatched thirty realms from such formidable opponents?

The very notion was unbelievable to her.

Even the Divine Dragon Imperial Seal, looking back, found it hard to comprehend—but since it had personally witnessed the events, there was no room for doubt.

“Which leads me to the third and fourth things.”

“Third—that kid broke through to the Immortal Emperor Realm!”

“Immortal Emperor Realm?! How did he advance so quickly?!”

At first, the Divine Dragon Empress was stunned by Ye Wushuang’s rapid progress.

But then she quickly realized—he had used her body to break through.

That changed everything.

Previously, she had been stuck at the bottleneck of the Immortal Emperor Realm, which was why she had turned to cultivating the Ancestral Dragon Scripture in the first place.

Never did she imagine that the realm which had once troubled her so deeply had been effortlessly surpassed by Ye Wushuang in such a short time.

If not for her absolute trust in the Divine Dragon Imperial Seal, she wouldn’t have believed it.

“How… how did he do it?”

“Most likely… by killing his way through. Before his breakthrough, he slaughtered the Vermilion Bird Clan’s Patriarch and even helped me obtain their legacy treasure. Now, our Divine Dragon Imperial Family possesses the Vermilion Bird Clan’s inherited techniques!”

“And not just theirs—we also have the inherited techniques of the Divine Phoenix Clan!”

“The Divine Phoenix Clan? But their lineage vanished from the world long ago—how did we get their techniques?”

“Well… that was also his doing. To cultivate the Undying Heavenly Art, he sought out True Phoenix Blood—and in the process, he acquired the complete legacy of the Divine Phoenix Clan.”

“Though, it was an incredibly perilous journey—a true brush with death!”

“The Undying Heavenly Art?! He used my body to cultivate that?!”

At this point, the Divine Dragon Empress’s mind was razor-sharp.

She knew that Ye Wushuang had cultivated the Undying Heavenly Art in her body.

What she hadn’t expected was that he had actually succeeded in mastering an art that was considered nearly impossible to learn.

Now, she couldn’t even begin to imagine just how much her body had been enhanced.

If Ye Wushuang had truly cultivated the Undying Heavenly Art to an advanced stage within her body, the transformations would be nothing short of revolutionary.

But the Divine Dragon Imperial Seal wasn’t finished.

“Not only did he master the Undying Heavenly Art, but he also cultivated the Eight-Nine Heavenly Art!”

“In fact, his proficiency in it is almost on par with Imperial Advisor Zongzheng’s!”

“He… mastered the Eight-Nine Heavenly Art?! This…!”

The Divine Dragon Empress had mixed feelings about the Eight-Nine Heavenly Art.

She knew exactly how important it was to Imperial Advisor Zongzheng Liu Ning.

Back then, it was her failure to cultivate this art that had created a distance between them.

Yet now, Ye Wushuang had somehow succeeded where she had failed.

The revelation left her speechless.

She even wondered if he had gone and mastered every single technique in the Divine Dragon Imperial Family’s archives.

The thought gave her a headache—his talent was simply too monstrous.

“Has he been defying the heavens all this time?! I only mastered one technique, yet he’s learned countless!”

“Go on—tell me everything else he’s cultivated and accomplished during this time. Just lay it all out at once!”

“Aside from the techniques in the Imperial Library, there can’t be that many left, right?”

“Well, he also cultivated the Divine Dragon Imperial Scripture—and his mastery is already profoundly deep.”

“On top of that, there’s the Grass Character Sword Art, the Kun Peng Divine Technique, the Void Law, and so on… all of which he’s mastered!”

“But none of those are the most impressive.”

“The most terrifying thing is… he created two peerless techniques of his own.”

“Those two arts—without a doubt—have the power to overturn the world!”
