Having reached the Spirit Devour Realm, Cai Ling had long been invincible and her strength was unmatched in Tianwu Kingdom.

Therefore, she had never thought of any possibility of betrayal by her men. Nobody would dare to have any thought of rebellion in front of the overwhelming power of the Spirit Devour Realm.

Only after Ye Mo’s reminder, Cai Ling realized how serious the situation had become due to her weakened strength.

“In recent years, City of Daughters has grown stronger under my rule. Many women have turned to my city, among which are many talented girls. However, some of the disciples under my rule began to plot against me. The faction which supports me is the Liu Faction. Its leader, named Liu Qincheng, is one of my closest allies. He has reached the latter stage of the Heaven’s Strength Realm. Another faction is the Hua Faction, led by Hua Musheng, who has also reached the latter stage of the Heaven’s Strength Realm.

“Hua Musheng has always advocated an expansionist strategy. She has been discontent with my current policy, but she never said a word about it. Now that my strength has fallen to the ninth realm of the Energy Shaping Realm, she will surely show her true colors soon.” Cai Ling frowned with worry.

The Heaven’s Strength Realm was the third realm of the True Energy Realm. The True Energy had the Heaven’s Strength within, and the body shone with streaming light, as if a person was immortal.

“In your current state, it is impossible for you to cultivate the fourth tail. The most important task now is to tame Hua Musheng,” Ye Mo suggested

“Let’s discuss this matter back at my mansion,” Cai Ling said and sped up her pace. Without paying attention to the surrounding women, Ye Mo followed and arrived at a huge mansion.

The mansion was at least three feet high and had a grand appearance. The mansion gate was guarded by at least 10 female aces in the Energy Shaping First Realm.

“Welcome back, City Lord!” Ten aces greeted at the same time.

Cai Ling slightly nodded and led Ye Mo into the mansion.

Once she entered the mansion, the housekeeper came out in a hurry. She looked happy at first, but then she became worried.

“City Lord, you are finally back! Liu Qingsheng and Hua Musheng are about to fight!”

“What is going on here?” Cai Ling asked.

“As you have left to seek the heritage of Patriarch for half a year, Hua Musheng insisted that you had died after failing to receive the heritage from Patriarch. So she led her subordinates to the mansion to take the position of Castellan.”

“Where are they now?” Cai Ling then asked.

“There are right outside of the Goddess’ Grotto now. Who takes the Goddess’ Grotto will immediately become the Lord of City of Daughters.”

The Goddess’ Grotto, where the Heavenly Goddess emerged in ancient time, was the most precious treasure the City of Daughters had.

The Goddess River continued flowing in City of Daughters solely because of the two Goddess’ Eternal Springs in the Goddess’ Grotto, which were said to be the eyeballs of the Heavenly Goddess.

Across the whole of the Tianwu Kingdom, there were only a few of these magical Goddess’ Grottos. The Goddess’ Grotto was well preserved by virtue of Cai Ling’s strong authority.

No martial artist was foolish enough to invade the Goddess’ Grotto.

An ace of the Spirit Devour Realm could launch the Mortal Gate Technique, which was an attack using the spirit. Without moving the body, the spiritual attack could directly wipe away your consciousness.

“Follow me!” Cai Ling ordered and left the City of Daughters. Ye Mo understood the seriousness of the current situation, so he activated his Yuanli and caught up with Cai Ling’s pace.

After an hour’s journey, Cai Ling and Ye Mo arrived at a valley. The valley had an innate beauty beyond imagination, like something out of an artist’s painting, in which Ye Mo could vaguely hear some beasts roaring.

Afterwards, intense fighting could be heard. Watching from afar, Ye Mo could see two old women fighting in mid-air.

Both of them had a pair of giant True Energy wings spreading out from their backs. The wings were made of streaming light and were covered by a layer of True Energy shielding mixed with the Heaven’s strength. Every time they clashed, the mountain shook, the air twisted, the True Energy roared, and even the sky turned a different color.

“This is a match between two martial artists of the Heaven’s Strength Realm? How powerful it is!”

Ye Mo could feel the immense pressure of True Energy from a long distance away. This is what a true genius was supposed to aspire to!

“Everyone stop what you are doing!” Cai Ling jumped and shouted.

When the Hua faction leaders saw the return of Cai Ling, they all blinked, with fear flowing out from their hearts.

“How is it possible? Didn’t Hua Musheng say the City Lord was dead? How can she be alive now? We are all doomed!”

“It’s over! Everything is over!”

The two aces engaging in an air battle also heard Cao Ling and ceased fighting immediately. Upon seeing Cai Ling, they showed different expressions.

“Haha! You are doomed, Hua Musheng! The City Lord has now returned. Let’s see what you can do now!” Liu Qingsheng laughed while slowly descending. Upon reaching the ground, she clasped her hands and said, “Cai Ling, you have finally come back. That Hua Musheng attempted to take your place during your absence.”

Liu Qingsheng, while having an elegant name, was a skinny old woman, having the eyes of an eagle. With a blue robe on and an icy blue short hair, she looked like a blue sea maiden.

“I am fully aware what is going on here!” Cai Ling responded, then glared at Hua Musheng and said, “Hua Musheng, do you admit your crime?”

“Dammit! I cannot believe Cai Ling is not dead yet!” Hua Musheng also flew down from the sky. With a dark expression, she said, “Cai Ling, I mistakenly thought you were dead. As the City of Daughter cannot operate without a leader, I proposed to become the Castellan.”

Hua Musheng had yellow hair, and she held a wooden sword in her hand.

“I presume you were planning to launch a coup d’état while I was not around, weren’t you?”

“City Lord, the Hua faction tried to rebel against you. Please arrest Hua Musheng immediately and execute her in order to set an example for others.”

This would be a warning to other rebels!

“Yes, City Lord. The Hua Faction is too arrogant and thinks City of Daughters is theirs,” the Liu faction said member, but Cai Ling still didn’t make a move.

Hua Musheng was shocked and scanned Cai Ling. To her surprise, Cai Ling did not show the strength of the True Energy Realm.

Hua Sheng waved her cuff and shot out a ball of True Energy towards Cai Ling.

Boom!

A ball of True Energy smacked Cai Ling and forced her to move several steps back. Blood could be seen at the corner of her mouth.

Nobody thought Hua Musheng would attack Cai Ling, and nobody could imagine Cai Ling being hurt.

“Haha! Cai Ling, you have lost your strength. It seems like the gods are on my side today. When I take the Goddess’ Eternal Springs, City of Daughters will be mine.”
