Empress Lake

In the eastern territory of the desolate continent there was an region called the empress lake.

It was a very large region, yet the so-called empress lake was actually just a small lake. It has an area of ​​about 200 square meters.

Surrounding the lake was an ancient city that seemed to have existed since countless eras.

The city was full of people coming and going.

Every day, thousands of people came to the city.

Of course, they didn't come for the city, but for the empress lake that was in the middle of the city.

Those who came to the city eventually gathered around the lake.

The lake itself was full of people bathing, but none of the people bathing in the lake were male, they were all women.

Of course, there was a reason why the lake was called the empress lake. It was because no man could enter that lake.

According to legend, there was an immortal who fell from heaven into the lake.

The Immortal was said to be cultivating under that lake. Because he was tired of cultivating for too long, he ended up letting the women bathe in the lake.

From the bottom of the lake, he watched the women bathing while admiring their beauty.

It was the most popular legend, some people disagreed with the legend and said that the immortal under the lake was a woman. The female immortal didn't want to feel lonely, so she let the women into the lake to accompany her.

No one knew which legend was true, but the legend that there was an immortal under the lake was believed by most people.

The reason for that was because some of the women who bathed in the lake claimed to have received guidance from the immortal.

A mere claim may not be convincing at all, but every woman who makes that claim has finally succeeded in creating their own dao, breaking through to the supreme realm, and becoming the invincible figure of their era.

The words of a supreme are as holy as heaven, who dares to doubt the words of a group of supremes.

Even the mighty paragons didn't dare to do that.

In the end, women who thought they had the qualifications for the immortal's guidance came to the lake to seek fortune.

Today was the start of spring, the area around the lake was filled with more people than usual.

The reason for that was because Fairy Moon, the most talented and most beautiful woman in the purple moon sect came to bathe in that lake.

To the east of the lake, a crowd cleared their way as a carriage pulled by a pair of white horses with golden wings passed by.

Behind the carriage, there was a group of young men and women following.

They were handsome and beautiful, their clothes were luxurious like royalty.

If anything they lacked was the overbearing expression on their faces.

Of course, it was nothing strange for disciples of a mighty sect like the purple moon sect.

Their arrogant expressions might make the commoners feel uncomfortable, but deep down they also wanted to be in their shoes.

As the carriage stopped in front of the lake, one of the young women came forward. She stepped carefully as she approached the carriage. Once she arrived at the side of the carriage door, she opened it with her smooth hand.

People couldn't see inside the carriage because there was some kind of illusory barrier blocking their view.

But they quickly held their breath when they saw a long, slender leg with snow-like skin emerge from the carriage.

All the disciples behind the carriage immediately hid their arrogant expressions and replaced them with the most friendly smiles ever.

If they didn't see them in person, people would definitely not believe that purple moon sect disciples could smile so kindly. In fact, they themselves never showed such a smile even when they met their ancestors.

They are increasingly anticipating the owner of the leg.

After the first leg, the next leg finally came out of the carriage.

Soon after they saw the figure of a young woman whose beauty was beyond mortal ink and brush to describe her.

Her tall and slender body was clad in a black dress with purple lace wrapped around her waist while her purple hair reached her thighs and they were smooth as silk.

She had blue eyes that were as calm as the ocean.

People would feel as if they were looking at an endless ocean the moment they looked into her eyes.

"Quiet as the full moon, and mysterious as the ocean, is there a woman prettier than her in this desolate continent?"

"There may be someone as beautiful as her in the past, but in this era, there is no doubt that she is the most beautiful."

"She also has unparalleled talent, she has already reached the realm of sovereign at such a young age, if there was only one person who became supreme in this era, it must be her."

"Oh, if the immortal under the lake was a man, I'm sure he would definitely give her some guidance."

"Yes, even an immortal would not be able to resist such a beautiful and graceful woman."

"I heard that the young lion of the divine lion clan, the young master of the red cloud sect, and the disciple of the Sword Origin Master are heading here after they heard that Fairy Moon came here."

"Well, they should arrive soon, but who is Fairy Moon, even if they all join forces, their status still can't be compared to Fairy Moon."

There was no fluctuation on Fairy Moon's face even though many eyes were staring at her.

Ever since she got off her carriage, her gaze was only on the lake ahead.

Many women were bathing in the lake, but because of Fairy Moon's arrival, they quickly left.

Whether it was talent, beauty, or background, Fairy Moon was way above them all, they all felt unqualified to bathe with her.

She didn't go straight to the lake after she got off. After staring at the lake for a while, she then looked at the northern edge of the lake.

There, there was a statue of a young man standing with one hand on his back while the other was stretched out to the sky.

The statue's posture was so domineering, he seemed to want to pull the sky down with his hands.

Unfortunately, the statue was damaged, the face of the statue could no longer be recognized.

Even so, people still bowed in respect as they passed the statue.

Beside the statue, there is a small stone monument.

A pearl sentence was written on the stone monument.

(Dream as high as the sky, even if you fall, you will fall among the stars!)

Fairy Moon who was staring at the statue placed one of her hands on her chest, then bowed to it.

"If you are my ancestor, I hope you will bless me," she said in a low voice.

No one heard her words, nor did people find her actions strange.

Although most people do not know the origin of the statue, but every supreme who comes to the city will pay respect to the statue.

It was said that it existed even before the empress lake was popular.

The words written on the stone monument later became the first words the sect elders taught the new disciples.

After bowing to the statue, Fairy Moon immediately stepped towards the lake.

Her footsteps were as graceful as those of a fairy, it was as if she had not stepped on the ground as her feet landed on the ground. Other people need at least 30 years of practice to have such a footstep.

Even though her footsteps were incredible, her feet still sank as they stepped on the water in the lake. Cultivators could walk on water, but no one could walk on the lake. People can only swim.

It was said that even supremes would be forced to swim the moment they entered the lake.

Fairy Moon quickly arrived in the middle of the lake, she stopped there, her entire body was submerged, now only her head could still be seen. But people couldn't see her for too long because a mist suddenly appeared around her and blocked their view.

Fairy Moon who was in the mist did nothing but soak in the water. She just daydreams and looks at the clouds in the sky.

For a woman like her, she naturally wouldn't do strange things in that lake.

But a strange thing that had never happened suddenly happened in that lake.

She suddenly heard the sound of water splashing under the lake, and it sounded quite loud.

She was about to dive his head into the water to see what was going on, but before she could do so, a youth who appeared to be only 17 years old suddenly came out from under the water and he slid towards her.

In the end, the youth landed on her body. Although his eyes were closed, but the young man's hands immediately hugged her body as he landed on her body.

Immediately after that the young man's eyes opened.

The youth had long white hair but his eyes were as pitch black as the night sky.

Faintly, Fairy Moon felt as if she saw the stars within the young man's eyes.

She didn't know what had happened to her, but her face suddenly blushed.

The young man looked at her, at first the young man still looked confused like someone who had just woken up, but he quickly smiled.

"Waking up in the arms of a beauty, looks like my luck is still as amazing as ever," he said.

"Ahhhh…" Fairy Moon suddenly realized their current position.

She may be a calm woman, but she's never even held hands with a man, not to mention a hug.

She tried to push him away, but she found she couldn't push him no matter how much force she released. No, the thing was that she found the strength in her body suddenly out of her control, her strength didn't seem to want to follow her orders.

In the end, she could only jump out of the lake.

Surprisingly, she can use her powers when she jumps.
