The Eight Empresses Betrayed Me, Only to Deeply Regret It After Being Reborn

The Supreme Empire Seal had already been devoured by Shangguan Huanling.

That was an innate spirit treasure.

But the Supreme Empire Seal was also a bloodline technique of the imperial clan.

It was branded into the bloodline of the royal family.

Anyone who killed a member of the imperial bloodline would have the Supreme Empire Seal fall upon them.

Though there had been exceptions.

For instance, both of his sons had died in the Ancient Battlefield of Heaven’s Chosen, yet the seal hadn’t transferred to anyone else.

The Heavenly Demon Emperor laughed.

Reincarnated Great Emperor—whether true or not, he wanted to see it for himself.

If it turned out to be real, it might bring him unimaginable benefit.

“Where is she?”

Shangguan Hongtian began to sense.

A moment later, he opened his eyes.

“Dao Domain Sect!”

The Heavenly Demon Emperor also murmured aloud, “Dao Domain Sect...”

The next target of the Myriad Spirit Demon Emperor just so happened to be the Dao Domain Sect.

It was one of their disciples—Lu Ye, ranked number one on the Eternal Heaven’s Chosen Ranking—who had slaughtered nearly all of the demon race’s chosen elites.

Lu Ye had already become the gravest threat in the heart of the Myriad Spirit Demon Emperor.

In fact, the Heavenly Demon Emperor and the Myriad Spirit Demon Emperor had initially disagreed about their next move.

The Demon Emperor had wanted to attack the Central State Dynasty. In terms of human population, the Central State was the densest region of the human race.

If that region were conquered... he didn’t even dare to imagine how thrilling his Ten Thousand Souls Banner would feel.

But now that Shangguan Huanling, who might be a reincarnated Great Emperor, was in the Dao Domain Sect—he no longer insisted on going after the Central State.

As for the reincarnated emperor issue, there was no need to tell the Myriad Spirit Demon Emperor.

After a moment of thought—

The Heavenly Demon Emperor left the Heavenly Prison.

He took out his transmission stone.

“Wanling, we can attack the Dao Domain Sect now. I agree.”

“Hahahaha! You’ve finally come around! Then gather the army—we’ll wipe the Dao Domain Sect clean!”

Vermilion Bird, upon hearing this, spread her wings and flew straight toward Dao Domain Sect.

...

Dao Domain Sect, White Orchid Peak.

Yue Hongling charged at full speed, slamming her way into Bai Qiulan’s Dao Courtyard.

Inside the courtyard, Shangguan Huanling was carefully examining her current cultivation state.

She could no longer walk the path of the Invincible Dao. Fortunately, she hadn’t yet broken through to the Tribulation Crossing stage. She was checking to see if there was another way—some method to change her Dao path.

Sun Ruowei was currently checking Bai Qiulan’s pulse, conducting a deep assessment of her condition.

“Master! Senior Brother brought over another woman again—and it’s someone none of us even knows!”

Yue Hongling shouted loudly, her eyes full of urgency and sorrow.

Bai Qiulan’s arm jolted violently.

Shangguan Huanling’s eyes flew open in an instant.

Sun Ruowei quietly slipped away, making no sound at all, hiding behind a nearby tree.

Go ahead. Go ahead. Pretend I don’t exist. Pretend I hear nothing.

“Not only did he bring another woman, he even told her about our past life—”

“Hongling!”

Bai Qiulan shouted sternly.

Sun Ruowei’s ears were standing up straighter than antennae.

Yue Hongling stopped mid-sentence.

Bai Qiulan immediately charged toward Sun Ruowei.

“Bai Qiulan! If you throw me out again, I swear I’ll fight you to the death!”

Sun Ruowei screamed with all her might.

But she still wasn’t a match for Bai Qiulan—she was caught and thrown out again on the spot.

“Ahhh! Bai Qiulan! You and I are enemies for life! From this day forward, our friendship is dead!”

“Bai Qiulan, I—”

“I’m begging you! Let me listen! Just let me listen! I promise I won’t tell a single other person! I’m begging you, let me hear it! Just once!”

With a wave of Bai Qiulan’s hand, Sun Ruowei was instantly frozen.

Of course, not frozen into an ice sculpture like Elder Lijian—just sealed in place.

Then, the barrier activated.

Sun Ruowei blinked, her pupils darting around. A single tear slipped down her cheek and was quickly frozen into crystal.

Bai Qiulan, I hate you...

The barrier sealed shut.

The first thing Bai Qiulan did was look at Yue Hongling.

“What happened? What ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) exactly happened?”

She was panicked—so panicked she didn’t even realize it herself.

“Master, Senior Brother found a new woman. He doesn’t want us anymore. He completely doesn’t want us anymore.”

Bai Qiulan’s face turned deathly pale.

Shangguan Huanling’s heart leapt into her throat.

Huh?

No—wait!

With Lu Ye’s flirtatious personality, wasn’t it completely normal for him to pick up another woman?

It wasn’t anything worth making a fuss over.

Yue Hongling was just always loud and overreacting, making a big deal out of nothing.

“You’re being dramatic. Lu Ye’s a born womanizer. It’d be weird if he didn’t find someone new while we’re out of the picture. Yue Hongling, haven’t you gotten used to that by now? Calm down,” Shangguan Huanling said.

The other two ignored her completely.

“What exactly happened? Speak in more detail!” Bai Qiulan’s tone grew heavier with seriousness.

“Earlier today, I heard that Senior Brother had returned, so I went to find him. At first, when I knocked on his door, there was no response. I didn’t notice anything strange and was about to leave, but then the door opened!”

“The one who opened the door was a woman—a very beautiful woman. Even in my past life, I had never seen anyone so beautiful. I was utterly stunned by her.”

Bai Qiulan’s expression grew even more grim.

“But Master, do you know what the first thing she said to me was?”

Recalling those words, Yue Hongling burst into tears in front of Bai Qiulan.

“What did she say?”

Bai Qiulan could tell Yue Hongling must’ve suffered a massive emotional blow.

“She said her name was Shen Xitong. Then she asked if I was Yue Hongling—one of Lu Ye’s eight ex-wives!!!”

“Master, Senior Brother told her everything about our past life! She knows it all! Senior Brother actually trusts her—to that extent!” Yue Hongling sobbed as she spoke.

Bai Qiulan’s face changed drastically, her expression turning even paler.

She could feel her heart pounding uncontrollably, a twisting pain like being torn open radiating from her chest, making it hard to even breathe.

How could this be...

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

She knew exactly what kind of man Lu Ye was. A man who valued emotions above all—who had been betrayed by eight women at once.

There was a ninety percent chance he would never believe in love again.

How could he possibly find a new woman in such a short time—and even tell her about their past life?

Time reversal.

That was a matter of monumental importance.

Not just something that concerned their personal cultivation—it was tied to the fate of heaven and earth, to the trajectory of the future.

So many terrifying wars—where had they started, and why?

So many hidden trump cards, buried ultimate techniques.

So many precious treasures—their locations and how to obtain them.

Too much. Far too much.

“What’s the big deal? I told people I’m a reincarnated Great Emperor too. Yue Hongling, your crying is so ugly. This is totally not worth it,” Shangguan Huanling said carelessly.

“Shut up!”

Bai Qiulan couldn’t help but snap at her.

Shangguan Huanling hadn’t been shocked by any of the information until now—but the moment Bai Qiulan raised her voice at her, she was completely stunned.

Bai Qiulan... had always acted like a big sister, even like an elder. Gentle, wise, elegant, dignified.

But now, she was scolding her so sternly!

Telling her to shut up?

In that moment, Shangguan Huanling finally began to grasp the seriousness of the situation—however faintly.
