Doupo: Life Simulator System - Chapter 663: Assimilation

The voice coming from the bird was clear and melodious, almost as if it were a beautiful lady transformed into a bird.

Xiao Ming nodded to himself. It seemed that this was indeed Jiu You, and it looked like she hadn’t gone out yet to undergo her tribulation and evolve. She had just recently broken through to the Sovereign Stage.

Being captured by him might even have saved her life.

To be honest, Xiao Ming couldn’t quite understand what this bird was thinking. The Nine Nether Bird race was not weak, and the clan even had a Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign. Jiu You, the daughter of the Nine Nether Bird Clan Chief, had inexplicably chosen to go through her tribulation and evolve alone in the desolate Hundred Spirit Continent in the original timeline, almost dying in the process.

Could it be that she wasn’t very bright because she hadn’t matured yet?

But then again, back when Zi Yan was young, her little brain was much sharper than this.

Jiu You, who was now being held in Xiao Ming’s palm, was unaware that she had been labeled as a blockhead. She continued to glare at him fiercely.

There’s a saying: When you’re weak, your anger only makes you seem adorable.

That was exactly how Xiao Ming viewed Jiu You at this moment. So he flicked her little head again and asked, “What’s your name?”

“Jiu You.” TL/N: Nine Nether

Jiu You had intended to answer defiantly, but for some reason, she couldn’t help but reveal her name as soon as she opened her mouth.

“Your father sure has a knack for names!”

Xiao Ming chuckled. This was the second time he had encountered someone with such a straightforward name. The first time was when he met the Amethyst Winged Lion King in the Magic Beast Mountain Range of the Jia Ma Empire. And even that was just a homophone.

Jiu You felt mocked, but she had no way to refute it.

Moreover, this was not the time to worry about her name. She realized that the person in front of her was immensely powerful, at least an Earth Sovereign. Only the Domain Ruler of the Great Havenlaw Domain could stand against such strength.

It was clear that someone of such strength coming to their doorstep was not here with good intentions, and the worst part was that she had already been captured.

If she had known this earlier, she wouldn’t have charged forward.

Xiao Ming lost interest in teasing her when he saw her hanging her head in silence. Instead, he said, “Take us to the Three Emperors of the Great Havenlaw Domain.”

With that, he tossed Jiu You into the air. In an instant, she was transformed into a tall, slender beauty with a graceful figure. Her fair neck, full bosom, slender waist, and especially her shapely legs formed an exquisite and desirable set of curves.

Jiu You’s body moved in an uncontrollable manner in her human form, leading Xiao Ming and the two women to the gates of the Greatlaw Sky.

Up in the sky of the Greatlaw Sky, there were orderly streaks of light flying across from time to time. They were the patrol troops of the Greatlaw Sky to prevent any abnormalities.

However, none of them seemed to notice anything unusual about Xiao Ming and his companions.

Greatlaw Sky, Central Region

It was a small-scale continent within the central region of the Great Havenlaw with a towering majestic mountain peak. The peak was like a sword as it pierced the clouds, the scene was immensely grand.

This peak was called Greatlaw Peak, the most critical location in the entire Greatlaw Sky. Not only were the three Emperors in charge of this peak but there were also rumors that it was the residence of the mysterious Ruler.

This was the backbone of the entire Greatlaw Sky and even the whole Great Havenlaw Domain.

On the Greatlaw Peak stood a towering palace that was emitting an ancient aura, as if it was left behind from ancient times.

Inside the palace, there was an elliptical stone platform that grew larger and larger as it extended deeper into the hall. The platform stretched almost to the edge of the palace, leaving an empty space in the center. At the highest point of the platform was a large throne that overlooked everything. However, the throne was currently empty.

Before that throne, there were three golden lotus stages, with three figures that were emitting luster quietly seated there with their surrounding spaces showing signs of distortion.

Amongst the three figures, the middle one was a skinny old man. His eyes looked like lights that had gathered and could pierce through the hearts of others. That piercing gaze could make others feel fear.

On the left was an old man with white hair, but his skin was as smooth as a baby’s. There weren’t any wrinkles on his face, even his hair was emitting luster. He didn’t look like an old man at all. Both of his eyes were completely black in color, there wasn’t any white in them, and the darkness made others feel a chill.

On the right was a sleepy man whose age could not be determined. But his lazy posture made him look like he could fall asleep at any moment…

These three figures held important positions within the palace. They were unmistakably the three Emperors of the Great Havenlaw Domain, second only to the Domain Ruler. The sleepy one was the Sleep Emperor, the white-haired old man was the Spiritual Pupils Emperor, and the skinny old man in the middle was the Sky Vulture Emperor.

The Domain Ruler, Mandala, rarely appeared in public due to her unique circumstances. Most of the affairs of the Great Havenlaw Domain were decided by the Three Emperors.

At this moment, the Three Emperors were in the middle of discussing matters when they suddenly saw Jiu You enter with a man and two women.

When Jiu You entered the palace, her gaze first fell on the skinny old man in the middle.

“Oh, little Jiu You, what brings you here?”

The Sky Vulture Emperor’s initial intention was to scold for the interruption, but his sharp gaze softened as soon as he saw Jiu You.

Jiu You was able to stay in the Great Havenlaw Domain and hold an important position because of the old ties between the Sky Vulture Emperor and the Nine Nether Bird Clan. Naturally, he wouldn’t scold Jiu You.

However, his question went unanswered, instead, he noticed the anxious look in Jiu You’s eyes.

‘Something is wrong!’

These three had lived far longer than Xiao Ming, and their instincts, honed by countless years in the Great Thousand World, immediately sensed the anomaly.

They mobilized their vast Spiritual Energy and prepared to act. But in an instant, they were pinned to their lotus stages by a single glance from Xiao Ming.

The once surging river of Spiritual Energy within them now felt like stagnant water, unresponsive no matter how hard they tried to stir it.

Jiu You couldn’t help but sigh inwardly upon seeing this. As expected, the Three Emperors were no match for this person. Their battle ended just like hers.

“Save your strength.”

Xiao Ming appreciated their unwillingness to give up, but it was impossible for anyone at the Sovereign Stage to break free of his restraint.

“Your Excellency, our Great Havenlaw Domain doesn’t seem to have offended you, does it?” The Sky Vulture Emperor could only ask with a grim expression when he saw that they couldn’t break free.

“Of course not.”

“Then why did you intrude into our Greatlaw Sky and restrain our Spiritual Energy for no reason?” the Sky Vulture Emperor asked.

“Rest assured, this Emperor is here to bring you under my command. It will be of great benefit to you. Now, summon your Domain Ruler,” Xiao Ming said as he walked over to the high throne and sat down leisurely with a smile on his face.

“Bring us under your command?”

The three Emperors exchanged glances. If the words of this powerful individual were true, they had little reason to resist.

The Skylaw Continent operated on the principle of the strong devouring the weak. They devoured others, and others devoured them. Moreover, this person’s strength seemed to far exceed that of their Domain Ruler. At the very least, their Domain Ruler couldn’t suppress their control over Spiritual Energy with a glance.

However, their agreement didn’t mean that their domain ruler would agree.

But at the moment, they had no choice.

The Sleep Emperor took out a jade slip and crushed it.

The space behind him suddenly ripped open, forming a spatial channel. From within the channel, a ray of spiritual light shot out and transformed into a golden figure standing in the center of the hall.

The figure seemed to be wrapped in a golden cloak, and the golden light surrounding it obscured any clear view of its exact appearance.

“Domain Ruler!”

The three Emperors immediately bowed and greeted the newcomer respectfully.

The Domain Ruler sensed something was wrong the moment she appeared. Ignoring the three Emperors, she turned her cold gaze to Xiao Ming, who was sitting on her throne.

“Who are you?” The Domain Ruler’s voice was somewhat hoarse, but anyone could hear the anger contained within.

“You may call me Heavenly Emperor.”

“Heavenly Emperor?!!” Mandala seemed to be taken aback when she heard those two words. Her voice faltered for a moment, and then, without any warning, she launched a fierce attack!

It was as if there was a slight exhalation from her, and instantly, a surge of dark energy shot into the sky. Within that dark energy, a rustling sound could be heard as a massive and eerie black thorn grew out. In an instant, it transformed into a forest of thorns that appeared above Xiao Ming.

Boom!

However, the thorns did not have the desired effect. Xiao Ming nonchalantly waved his hand and sent the thorns flying back.

Caught off guard, Mandala could only hastily defend herself. Although she was able to block the attack, the light of Spiritual Energy that was shielding her was dissipated in the process.

As the light dissipated, a figure appeared.

The Sky Vulture Emperor and the Spiritual Pupils Emperor among the three Emperors stood in stunned silence, their mouths slightly agape. Where the light had faded, a petite figure appeared.

She was dressed in an elegant purple and white robe with intricate patterns. Her long, flowing purple-colored hair was styled in twin buns that cascaded down her back. Despite her expressionless face, her beautiful features exuded an extremely cute and delicate charm.
