Chapter 478: Shui Yuefei as an Idol?
The Supreme Seven Concubines were actually divided into two tiers of power.
The Snow Monarch, considered the oldest legendary being in the spirit world, a symbol of eternity and immortality, the supreme ruler of the ice element.
The White Moon Lord, leader of the Six Disasters, the Moon Calamity, the embodiment of violence and destruction, its full moon Disaster Ring annihilating everything in its path, worshipped by those who reveled in chaos.
The Peach Blossom Concubine, its body constantly regenerating, its flesh and even its core indestructible, a truly immortal being.
And the Dark Night Concubine…
If the Snow Monarch represented eternity, the White Moon Lord violence, and the Peach Blossom Concubine perfect immortality, then the Dark Night Concubine represented despair!!!
Eternity, violence, perfection, and despair. These were the four apex powers of the Seven Concubines.
The Dark Night Concubine was feared and revered for its unmatched combat power.
Since its birth tens of thousands of years ago, it had only ever needed a single strike to defeat any opponent, no being, no matter how powerful, surviving its first attack.
From the Dead Sea Stage to the Lost Realm, from overlord to Concubine, it had risen, its power absolute, its victories swift and decisive, heralding the rise of the Black Tide Ancient City.
Even the former Seven Concubines buried beneath the Black Tide Ancient City hadn’t required a second strike…
The only being to survive an attack from the Dark Night Concubine was the Ink Princess, Harbinger of the Ferocious Calamity, which, traumatized, had fled, never daring to approach the Black Tide Ancient City again.
As for the pacifistic Illusion Sea Concubine, the support-type Yu Jinfei, and the Weaver of the Sun, whose fire attribute was suppressed in the spirit world, their eventual downfall seemed inevitable.
They were no match for the top four.
Black Tide Ancient City
No sun, no moon, only a shadowy darkness, the sky above obscured by a thick, oppressive mist of spirit energy.
Despite its gloomy atmosphere, the Black Tide Ancient City was open to visitors, though its popularity was lacking.
Those seeking pure, innocent companionship went to the Illusion Sea Palace. Those with unique tastes, seeking tentacle play, went to the Myriad Spirit Flower Ring. And those seeking suitable spirit beasts visited the Yellow Spring Demon Capital, home of the alluring hybrid beauties.
Who would come to the Black Tide Ancient City? For a haunted house experience?
At this moment, within a dark, gloomy palace deep within the Black Tide Ancient City, several humanoid spirit beasts, their auras unsettling, whispered amongst themselves.
“Sigh, the number of visitors has decreased again. In the past few hundred years, the total number of visitors is less than what the Illusion Sea Palace gets in a single week…”
“I’ve heard many of our subordinates complaining about not being able to find mates. And even if they do, and even if they have offspring, they refuse to stay in the Black Tide Ancient City.”
“That’s because you all have such gloomy faces! You scare everyone away!”
“Yeah, if you all wore cute little dresses and danced and sang like idols, would it be this deserted?”
“Such indecent behavior! We are the Ten Palace Ghost Concubines! How could we stoop to such vulgar displays?!”
“Heh, the Ten Palace Ghost Concubines? Do you even know what they call us outside?”
Hearing this, the room fell silent, the temperature dropping, a chilling breeze.
They hadn’t understood the reason for the Black Tide Ancient City’s unpopularity until a recent market research trip.
It turned out that the Ten Prison Flowers of the Myriad Spirit Flower Ring each had harems exceeding a hundred million, constantly expanding, their services readily available, their charms irresistible.
And the Heavenly Demon Dance Troupe of the Illusion Sea Palace, talented performers, titled legendary beings and popular idols, their fans spanning the spirit world, a single ticket to their performance costing more than an entire overlord realm.
In comparison, they, the Ten Palace Ghost Concubines, despite doing nothing, were notorious, seen as ten terrifying ghosts, their names inspiring fear and disgust.
That was why even the Jade Concubine of the Waterfall Lake never mentioned her title…
“I heard that Shui Yuefei, the Water Moon Concubine, is incredibly beautiful and well-endowed, incredibly popular. Perhaps we could use this marriage as marketing. After all, beauty and assets… those are what matter!!”
“Maybe we can ask Shui Yuefei to be our idol.”
_”Wah, my Big Sister…”
“Come on, stop crying. You know Big Sister wouldn’t be interested in someone weaker than herself!!”
The mention of the upcoming marriage always brought a wave of sorrow to the Ten Palace Ghost Concubines.
Within the Black Tide Ancient City, a dark and gloomy place, the Jade Concubine was like a beacon of light, the object of everyone’s affection, including the Ten Palace Ghost Concubines.
And this perfect, beloved Jade Concubine… was about to marry into Water Moon Shadow…
The thought of the Jade Concubine’s perfect body, subjected to the Water Moon Concubine’s and her spirit beasts’ attentions filled some of the Ghost Concubines with despair, an urge to simply… end it all.
“By the way, Ye Hunluo, you’ve met Shui Yuefei. What does she look like? Is she really as beautiful as the rumors say?”
Hearing the question, a black-haired woman, Ye Hunluo, the Eighth Ghost Concubine, who had been unusually quiet, looked up.
At the mention of Shui Yuefei, her previously listless expression brightened, her eyes shining with a sudden passion.
“Shui Yuefei?”
“Shui Yuefei’s assets… they’re this big~~~”
She gestured wildly with her hands, and the other Ghost Concubines, their eyes widening, their mouths watering, exchanged envious glances.
That big? As big as Ye Hunluo’s outstretched arms?
“And Shui Yuefei’s face… comparable to Big Sister’s!!!”
“Shui Yuefei’s skin… It’s like… no, it is made of water!”
“Shui Yuefei’s legs… I could play with them for ten thousand years!!!”
“Shui Yuefei’s feet… I could lick them for thirty thousand years!!!”
“And Shui Yuefei’s eyes…”
“…”
“…”
“Stop! I can’t take it anymore! I’m overwhelmed!”
“I understand now. No wonder she’s so popular. Water-type spirit beasts are truly the most beautiful!”
“I should draw a doujinshi of Big Sister and Shui Yuefei and sell it to attract tourists.”
As the Ten Palace Ghost Concubines, their imaginations running wild, chattered excitedly, Gong Lianyue, unnoticed, entered the Black Tide Ancient City.
Since that mysterious Water Element had warned her of danger, she wouldn’t reveal herself just yet.
She would investigate first, then appear during the wedding ceremony.
