Heaven, Earth, Me Chapter 1528. Fate Calling Song—For You Know This Sound. [End Of Volume 23]

The world twisted around them, with assaults morphing into massive palms, colossal arms, star-busting sword qi, and realm-shaking spear thrusts.

All those strikes merged together, targeting solely the empress clad in red who clutched a stunning fate-strumming guitar.

Even as reality appeared on the verge of crumbling, the red-clad woman gracefully extended her slender fingers and started strumming a tune.

“[Innate Skill: Fate Calling Song].”

The Fate Law gripped the world firmly, causing Tatyana’s form to vanish from the sealed spot and reemerge smack in the center of the army of five hundred Seventh Realm cultivators.

Her voice echoed outward, a flawless tune harmonizing perfectly with the guitar’s notes.

Her melody rippled across the crumbling battlefield, fissures of ghostly pale light cracking open the void. Then, amid a deafening rumble, the gates of the Underworld burst wide.

Fate and Death powers erupted from her, slamming into every undead beast darkening the stars encircling them.

Strikes directed at her, doomed by destiny to miss, failed to even graze the edge of her crimson imperial gown!

As panic gripped the foes, Tatyana ascended with a radiant smile, her Underworld Law empowering her undead minions to skyrocket in power.

Unwilling to let Tatyana dominate the field entirely, the Martial Empress shattered the void, materializing in front of Tatyana and lunging with her spear, infused with Unavoidable and Unblockable principles.

Yet Tatyana remained unconcerned, her song climbing to a fierce peak!

Just as the spear closed in, an undead figure wreathed in spectral green lightning materialized before Tatyana. It was Hakkan, the mighty foe she had vanquished upon the Dragon Hunters’ arrival at the Lan Family!

The Martial Empress got repelled, while the other experts found themselves mired in battles against ceaseless undead swarms pouring from every cosmic crevice nearby!

Lord Gu and Vulcan emerged precisely when the Martial Empress retreated, yet they too failed to approach Tatyana. Out of the void leaped a colossal armored dragon, ridden by a fully plated warrior brandishing a lance. These defenders halted them, thwarting the Ancestor-level assaults.

Gazing upon the mayhem-filled battlefield, Tatyana brimmed with thrill.

How long had passed since she unleashed her full might?

How long since she had cut truly loose like this?

She, the Death Empress, had more to give!

BOOM!

Her presence exploded outward, emotions hitting their zenith.

She streaked across the chaos and materialized in front of a Level 1 Law Creator, her fist slamming into their chest, obliterating body and soul alike!

Love and Fate Laws erupted forth, causing nearly half the weaker cultivators to lose all reason, lashing out at their own allies!

The Martial Empress’s stomach dropped, her complexion draining of color. “I-Impossible… A Fourth Law?”

Tatyana spread her arms drenched in scarlet, blood sheathing her hands like gauntlets, as she beamed at the crowd with utter tenderness.

Her Underworld Law merged with her enhancement abilities, letting charmed foes absorb the Death and Underworld forces into themselves, forever altering their essence.

Her music’s climax rattled the fabric of existence, Seventh Realm cultivators dropping like flies, mere pests in the grand scheme.

The Martial Empress shoved Hakkan away with a furious flurry of spear thrusts and punches, charging straight at Tatyana.

Tatyana flashed a wicked grin, belting out her song with reckless fervor!

Tatyana’s form danced effortlessly past the Martial Empress’s onslaught, untouched regardless of the principles fueling those blows. Indeed, Fate foretold their doom, Fate ridiculed the defiant, and Fate jeered at any who challenged its mistress!

The Martial Empress glanced aside and saw Hakkan teaming up with Lauren to pummel Vulcan and Lord Gu, pinning them down so low they could barely lift their heads.

All at once, the Martial Empress sensed a pause in the melody, and amid that ghostly quiet, Tatyana materialized close and cradled her face.

Gleams of white sparked in Tatyana’s crimson gaze, compelling the Martial Empress; binding her will, stealing her words. “Tatyana… Kill me.”

Terror blazed in the Martial Empress’s eyes, and Tatyana’s grin stretched ear to ear, her blade materializing as she slashed down.

The woman struggled against it, but this marked the song’s ultimate swell, the snapping of her fate thread!

Tatyana poured her soul into the song!

The Martial Empress fought back.

Tatyana’s sword shredded her guards.

The Martial Empress forfeited her arm and spear, battling on with raw fists in desperation.

And as the last notes rang out, the Martial Empress—the mightiest among them—crumpled, Tatyana’s sword impaling her heart.

That strike ushered in hush and calm over the battlefield, solely the lingering traces of Tatyana’s closing melody haunting the world like the seductive murmur of an enchanting fiend.

Blood tainted the Martial Empress's pale lips as she coughed, gazing at Tatyana with lifeless eyes and a countenance brimming with remorse. “To think… my life would end… so abruptly. Haha… cough, it really was… not worth it…”

“Shh~.” 

Gently pressing her finger to her lips, Tatyana's crimson eyes brimmed with amusement. “This is not your end. You will, after all, serve me from now on.” She bit her finger. “I usually don’t do this, but… your talent is enviable~.” 

Tatyana slipped her finger into the Martial Empress's mouth, and driven by the Death Empress's command, she swallowed it down. Her eyes shifted to green in an instant, while underworld flames scorched both her soul and flesh. 

Fatigue touched Tatyana’s expression, revealing the strain of her recent exertion. Yet, amid those sinister green flames raging, she drew her sword, completely restoring the Martial Empress. 

Snow-white strands replaced her black hair, her skin turning a ghostly pale beauty. In contrast to the others around, who transformed into skeletal or standard undead based on their potential, the Martial Empress stayed largely the same. 

Deep within her gaze, intense loyalty blazed as she dropped to one knee swiftly. “My Death Empress, Martial Empress Hou Zongying will protect you for eternity.” 

Satisfied, Tatyana nodded and scanned the fallen around her. But prior to deeper examination, a golden comet hurtled through the void, crashing into her. 

Words failed to form before her lips were claimed, a lengthy, supple, slick dragon tongue twisting passionately with hers as she melted into plush warmth. Tatyana's murderous aura vanished, her form loosening completely. 

After that intense kiss, her eyes met Yasenia’s blushing, thrilled visage, prompting laughter. “Did you like it?” 

Like a chicken pecking at feed, Yasenia nodded rapidly, her tail whipping behind at dizzying velocity. Clearly, Tatyana’s battle had ignited every primal urge within her, and were it not for the unsuitable timing and location, Tatyana knew she'd be confined to a chamber for days until passion subsided. 

Upon their return, Cai Xue and the trio of maids felt deep awe and admiration. ‘No wonder Young Miss boasts such talent. She must have inherited it from somewhere!’ 

This didn't diminish Yasenia’s hard work or innate gifts; evidently, her lineage was extraordinary! 

Back atop Tian Long’s head, Tatyana murmured while embracing Yasenia’s waist. “Let’s go. You already know where the Heavenly Layer portal is.” 

As words passed between them, the fresh undead plunged into the Underworld, then Tian Long beat his wings, ripping through the void to surge forward at absurd velocity. 

His pace was so immense that planets and stars streaked past Yasenia like roadside lamps on a late-night stroll. 

The young son, temporarily set aside amid Yasenia’s fervent display of devotion toward Tatyana, swiftly reclaimed his cozy spot in the dragoness's arms. 

“So, Mom, where are we going?” 

Tatyana shared details on their present Heavenly Layer. “The portal to pass between Heavenly Layers is not owned by anyone from this layer onward. I’ve sent a few people to investigate, and clearly, all forces seem to have an agreement that this place is a no-ownership zone.” 

Yasenia nodded thoughtfully, then grinned. “There must be a ‘But' involved somewhere, right?” 

“Hehe, yes~.” Tatyana grinned in return. “The Heaven Piercing City around the portals each has its own dominant powers, and though they don't block the mighty, those without sufficient strength face great hardship.” 

Yasenia snorted. “I knew it.” 

Tatyana arched her brow. “You are snorting because you are jealous of the wealth they are gaining, not because of the injustice.”

Not a query, but a declaration. Cheeks puffed out, Yasenia replied, “While it is true, can’t you leave some face to your daughter?”

“Face? What is that? Can you eat it?” 

Yasenia flashed a alluring smile. “Yours, I can eat~.” 

Caught off guard by the retort, Tatyana coughed. “Heavens, those girls are in trouble.” 

“Trouble?” Yasenia blinked, as Tatyana gestured toward the maids. 

Glancing their way, even the composed Star Forge sported red ear tips. Yasenia’s charming smile had evidently impacted them all. 

Yasenia eyed Feixue, whose cheeks burned lobster-red, lost in who-knows-what fantasies. 

Yasenia gave a wry smile. “I still lack a bit of control after learning those techniques. So, our first stop is Andrea’s world. Where is it?” 

Tatyana smiled. “Exalted Heaven. A layer that allows up to Sixth-Level Transcendence Realm cultivators.” 

Star Forge and Cai Xue blinked, jabbing fingers at themselves. “What about us?” 

Tatyana beamed at them. “Time to go wait back at home and meet your coworkers.” 

A faint smile played on Tai Qingzhe's lips, a hint of smugness bubbling within. Yet, Tatyana's verdict landed on her and Mo Yun too. “You two will return with them, so don’t be too smug. Do you think there are no other maids who want to accompany your Young Miss back at home?”

Yasenia blinked in surprise, her eyes suddenly sparkling with joy. Even before she could voice her question, Tatyana chuckled softly and nodded. “Yes, Anna and Eve are coming over.” 

Excitement welled up in Yasenia's heart, her tail wagging happily once more. ‘I will finally see them again!’ 

Anna and Eve served as Yasenia’s two personal head maids, the strongest among them despite not having the highest realms. Moreover, they were the very maids Yasenia had once seriously thought of taking as true mates and lovers!
