Starforce Warriors-Chapter 551: You Want To Kill Me?

Li Xiaofei’s sudden appearance instantly caught Emperor Akihito’s attention. The Emperor was utterly shocked.

"Who allowed you in here? No, wait... when did you... how did you get in?"

The defenses of the Sun and Moon Palace were nearly impenetrable. With formations layered on top of advanced technologies, even Saints were incapable of breaking in.

Shinzu Genshi was supposed to be stationed outside the chamber. How could he suddenly appear inside?

Li Xiaofei smiled faintly. "I’ve come to liven things up for Your Majesty and the Empress."

"Impudent!" Emperor Akihito was enraged.

His dignity as a man was being blatantly challenged and trampled upon at this very moment.

How dare you talk of 'livening things up' on my wedding night?

"Die!" Emperor Akihito struck without hesitation.

A surge of Saint-level energy radiated from him, revealing his formidable strength. But Li Xiaofei had anticipated this reaction.

The Emperor was the supreme ruler of the Jiepeng Empire and enjoyed the finest cultivation techniques, resources, and technology the empire had to offer. With such advantages, even a pig could be nurtured into a demon boar.

Moreover, the Jiepeng royal family, already blessed with a top-tier bloodline inheritance, further amplified this potential. Emperor Akihito’s Saint-level cultivation was the very foundation of his confidence in publicly humiliating Shinzu Genshi.

However, Li Xiaofei made no move to counter the blow, because someone else acted first. A slender, pale hand suddenly pressed against Emperor Akihito’s back. The hand was so exquisitely beautiful that it seemed like a flawless masterpiece sculpted from the finest jade.

Yet the energy it unleashed was astonishing, so much so that even a Saint like Emperor Akihito failed to sense it in time, nor could he react in the following instant.

Boom!

A low, muffled explosion echoed. The Emperor staggered forward as the Saint energy within his body scattered. He turned around in utter disbelief.

Dressed in her regal wedding attire, Tsukiha Yaiba slowly withdrew her hand. She had been the one who had struck the decisive blow.

"You... you wretched woman, how dare you ambush me?" Emperor Akihito growled through gritted teeth, his voice low and venomous.

Tsukiha Yaiba smiled faintly, her tone sweet yet mocking. She said, "Your Majesty, why would you insult your new bride on our wedding night?"

Emperor Akihito repeatedly tried to mobilize the energy in his body. Yet neither his inner qi nor the energy of his Inscribed Treasure Bone responded. Both seemed inexplicably trapped and stagnant.

His Saint-level strength was useless to him. Even the raw strength of his physical body had been neutralized, leaving him weak and powerless. This realization filled him with both shock and rage. Tsukiha Yaiba’s cultivation was, at most, at the Dao Union Realm. The royal family had conducted thorough investigations prior to the wedding.

Thus, even though he knew of the peculiar relationship between Tsukiha Yaiba and Li Xiaofei, he had never considered her a threat. After all, she was just a seemingly delicate woman who was incapable of harming him.

But this lapse in judgment had proven fatal. Emperor Akihito now understood he had fallen into a meticulously crafted trap. But he couldn’t fathom the reason behind it. What purpose did the Tsukiha Family have in assassinating their emperor?

Li Xiaofei glanced at Tsukiha Yaiba in surprise. This woman had indeed been concealing her strength. Ever since her Golden Lizard King bloodline reached 100 percent purity, she had undergone mysterious changes that even Li Xiaofei couldn’t fully comprehend. It seemed she had developed some unique abilities. The strike she had just displayed to seal a Saint’s energy was clearly one of her awakened abilities.

"Your Majesty, don’t be alarmed," Tsukiha Yaiba said, her voice soft and soothing.

Dressed in her grand and regal empress wedding attire, she radiated an unmatched allure. Her beauty was breathtaking and her presence radiated an irresistible charm.

She seemed like a devoted and concerned wife as she said tenderly, "No matter what the cost, I will protect you, Your Majesty..."

Then, turning to Li Xiaofei, her expression shifted to one of fear and desperation. Trembling, she pleaded, "You insolent villain! You can do anything you want to me, but please spare His Majesty. After all, he is my husband!"

Emperor Akihito stared at her. He still hadn’t fully grasped what was happening.

Li Xiaofei was speechless.

What the hell? This twisted Jiepeng woman... She’s really pulling a move like this? How thrilling.

"No, what if he escapes? What if he resists?" Li Xiaofei said with a sinister grin. "Empress, you wouldn’t want me to kill His Majesty, would you?"

Tsukiha Yaiba put on an expression of fear and helplessness, her trembling demeanor tugging at any observer's heartstrings.

"Then... how about I tie him up? That way, he won’t disturb you," she suggested hesitantly.

She looked around for a moment before lifting the hem of her pristine white wedding dress. She removed her white silk stockings, and, barefoot on the crimson carpet, walked gracefully toward Emperor Akihito. Her movements were both elegant and seductive.

She knelt and began binding the Emperor’s hands and feet with the stockings. The pitiable Emperor Akihito, the supreme ruler of the Jiepeng Empire and a Saint-level powerhouse, now found himself entirely powerless.

And yet, it wasn’t chains or high-tech restraints holding him; it was a pair of stockings from a woman. Bound tightly, he now resembled a turtle flipped on its back.

"Villain, is this good enough?" Tsukiha Yaiba asked softly.

Barefoot, her snow-white legs were fully exposed as she gathered her wedding dress at her waist, revealing her full, shapely thighs. She knelt before Li Xiaofei, her voice pleading, "Please spare His Majesty’s life. I’ll do anything you want."

"You wretch! I’ll kill you! I’ll—" Emperor Akihito’s roar was filled with rage and disbelief.

At last, he understood. His empress was acting. And not just acting, she had completely lost herself in her role and was indulging in it with reckless abandon.

Li Xiaofei felt his blood boil.

Damn it. This twisted woman is far too good at this.

Even now, she was pulling off a scene so outrageous, a loyal wife willing to sacrifice everything to protect her husband, that it was utterly convincing. Every tremble in her voice and every nuance of her expression painted a picture of desperation.

Yet somehow, there was a subtle allure in her performance, a hint of seduction that could drive any man to the edge of insanity.

Li Xiaofei walked over, his fingers tilting her chin upward.

"Anything?" Li Xiaofei's tone turned playful, as he seemed to immerse himself in the act. "Then let’s see how well the Empress performs."

"Yes, anything... I will try my best," Tsukiha Yaiba responded, her voice trembling with a mix of fear and submission. "If there's anything you’re not satisfied with, please tell me directly."

As she spoke, she slowly reached for the clasps at the back of her wedding dress. "I will cooperate... completely... sob, sob..."

"No, don’t take it all off," Li Xiaofei interrupted, stopping her hands. "At least not entirely. I like how you look in the Jiepeng Empress wedding dress."

He tore the wedding gown from her shoulders with a sharp motion, pulling the fabric down to rest loosely around her waist on both sides. This half-dressed state, teasing yet modest, was far more alluring than full nudity.

After all, wasn’t there a saying? Leaving a hint of mystery was always more intoxicating than revealing everything.

"Ah..." Tsukiha Yaiba let out a sharp cry.

But there was more excitement and thrill than actual fear in her voice.

"You wretch! You filthy wretch! How dare you—" Emperor Akihito’s face flushed with rage, his vision darkening as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

For someone of his stature, the supreme ruler of the Jiepeng Empire, to be so humiliated on his wedding night was too unbearable. Yet, he could now see the truth. Tsukiha Yaiba’s actions weren’t born out of a desire to protect him. She was clearly seeking her own twisted sense of thrill.

This wretch. I had once believed her to be a pure and flawless goddess. Who would have thought she could be so wanton and shameless?

"It’s getting a bit noisy," Li Xiaofei remarked.

"I have a solution," Tsukiha Yaiba said calmly.

Tsukiha Yaiba took off her underwear, walked towards Emperor Akihito and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Ugh, ugh." Emperor Akihito’s eyes widened with fury, and he fainted away in anger.

Li Xiaofei then started his spear technique on the Empress. He had already understood Tsukiha Yaiba's intentions. This woman had gone to such great lengths, not because she had any twisted desires, but to stimulate the energy in her bloodline.

It seemed that Tsukiha Yaiba had realized that intense mental stimulation and pleasure could bring incredible enhancements to dual cultivation, causing her strength to surge exponentially. This was the true reason she had agreed to marry Emperor Akihito. She had been waiting for this very night.

"Ah, I am the Empress, you can't treat me like this..." Tsukiha Yaiba's hair was disheveled, and she was gasping heavily.

Li Xiaofei did not say a word. He simply thrust his spear repeatedly. As a man of Great Xia, he could be said to have brought honor to his country in a way unparalleled in history.

Time passed. In the blink of an eye, an hour had gone by. Emperor Akihito gradually regained consciousness. The scene before his eyes made him cough up several mouthfuls of blood once again.

Utter humiliation. It was a disgrace so heavy that no one could bear it in their lifetime. He vowed that as soon as he regained some of his strength, he would utterly and completely torment this treacherous pair to their deaths.

The sound of Tsukiha Yaiba's rapid breathing, accompanied by the relentless, rhythmic impacts struck Emperor Akihito's heart with maddening intensity.

After a long while, Tsukiha Yaiba suddenly let out a sharp, rapid scream, her jade-like body trembling violently. At that moment, an unparalleled energy within her completely awakened.

Li Xiaofei felt this energy break through the confines of Tsukiha Yaiba's body. It flowed directly into his own body through the connection of the Bridge of Heaven and Earth, forming a unique grand cycle between him and Tsukiha Yaiba.

A brand-new, advanced energy! It was an energy of the same caliber as subspace energy. Amid this indulgent moment, Li Xiaofei sensed his Innate Art galvanized into action.

The four innate essences of heart, liver, spleen, and lungs that he had already cultivated grew rapidly. Finally, even the essence of the kidneys was ignited effortlessly. The Five Spirits Realm! He had finally achieved all five innate essences.

Li Xiaofei was caught completely off guard. He had never expected that the Five Spirits Realm, which he had struggled to cultivate for so long, would suddenly be mastered in this extraordinary moment of bringing honor to his nation.

As the cycle through the Bridge of Heaven and Earth continued, Li Xiaofei felt his strength rising rapidly. This was the second most effective dual cultivation session he had experienced since practicing the Yin-Yang Resonance of Great Sorrow technique.

Tsukiha Yaiba's screams gradually subsided. She turned to look at Li Xiaofei. She suddenly struck out with a palm. The blow landed squarely on Li Xiaofei's left chest.

Bang!

Li Xiaofei was sent flying as Tsukiha Yaiba slowly rose into the air. A look of intoxicated fascination appeared on her face.

"I can feel it... the aura of divine energy," she murmured.

Her black hair danced in the air without wind as she stretched gracefully. Her jade-like, flawless figure was dazzling to behold.

She looked down at Li Xiaofei as she asked, "Can you feel it, Li Xiaofei?"

Li Xiaofei had felt a strange energy enter his body through Tsukiha Yaiba's palm strike. It was rapidly sealing his inner qi and physical strength. The aura of power he emanated began to collapse at an alarming rate. In the blink of an eye, he was no different from an ordinary person.

"I can feel it," Li Xiaofei replied, his eyes steady. "But are you really going to pull up your pants and deny me now?"

"Hahaha," Tsukiha Yaiba laughed. "What do you think? Ruthless abandonment isn’t just a privilege reserved for men."

Li Xiaofei rubbed his temples and said, "So, you planned this all along, and now you’re going to kill me?"

"Yes, why not?" Tsukiha Yaiba's expression suddenly darkened, her tone turning bitter and resentful as she cried out, "I gave you so many chances, but you never cared about me. I felt something for you countless times, but all I received was your cold indifference. You never treated me as your girlfriend or even as a woman... You broke my heart completely. Why shouldn't I kill you?"
