Dao Of Heaven

Chapter 220: Friend Or Foe?

"I have no one left," Kaguya said sadly. "My relatives were exiled years ago for offending the minister, and I heard they were killed by bandits on their way."

"Sorry, I shouldn't have asked," Leone apologized.

"It's nothing," Kaguya shook her head gently. "It was a long time ago."

"So now you..." Leone hesitated.

"I don't know," Kaguya said softly. "I have no skills or strength to avenge my family. It's just a dream. I have no plans for the future."

Kaguya's hin...

Chapter 219: Travel Together

Leone quickly walked over to the group of girls, paused in surprise, and hurriedly helped a silver-haired girl up, shaking her gently, "Wake up, wake up."

Kaguya, pretending to be unconscious, mentally complained, You're shaking so hard, even if I weren't fainted, you'd knock me out.

"Who is she?"

Lubbock strolled over nonchalantly, but when his eyes fell on the silver-haired girl in Leone's arms, he froze, his eyes widening. It took him a while to snap back to real...

Chapter 218: Slaughter

Gunshots rang out, with bullets flying in a torrent, yet Kaguya deflected them all with her Kusanagi sword amidst the crisp sound of clashing metal.

Kaguya rushed forward, her long sword flashing coldly. In an instant, half a body flew into the air, crimson blood splattering everywhere with a foul stench filling the air.

In Kaguya's presence, these ordinary people were as defenseless as sheep. Even with guns, they were still just ordinary people. While firearms are deadly to the a...

Chapter 217: Blinded By Lust And Desire

Kaguya stepped lightly, moving toward the direction of the scream. Through the gaps in the railing, she could clearly see the scene in the distance.

"As long as you earn money for me, I'll give you more drugs," two men said with evil grins as they looked down at the girls half-lying on the ground.

"Yes," the girls responded weakly, their eyes glazed, clearly under the influence of drugs.

"Boss, look at this one," said a man in a white suit to the one-eyed man beside him.

Chapter 216: Eliminate Traitors And Eradicate Evil

Kaguya had originally planned to stay longer in the capital, but an unexpected event changed her mind: the northern tribes had allied with the Revolutionary Army and were preparing to move south, with their first stop being Kaguya's territory.

This information came from Kaguya's intelligence department, obtained at the cost of more than a dozen lives. Even the capital's ministers and officials were unaware. This highlighted the extent of the Empire's decay, as they could not even obtain...

Chapter 215: The Situation In The Imperial Capital

The three young girls were terrified by the sudden attack and froze in place, letting out a simultaneous scream.

As for the incoming attack, Kaguya was unconcerned. With a graceful step, she shifted her position, allowing the sharp blade to pass right in front of her. She extended her fair fingers, lightly touching the blade's surface. With a crisp sound, the glinting long blade was deflected far away.

The attacker seemed to have anticipated this outcome and was not discouraged. S...

Chapter 214: The Loli's Unease

"You must have spent a lot of time making this," Kaguya said softly, looking at the scars on Luna's hand.

"Yes," Far replied, a bit puzzled by the Princess's question, but answered truthfully.

"Thank you," Kaguya released Luna's soft hand, removed the fox mask from her face, and smiled gently. "I really like it."

The three little girls were stunned. They had heard from the villagers that the Princess was the most beautiful woman in the Empire, which they didn't quite believe...

Chapter 213: Adopt A Little Loli

Suddenly, Kaguya's eyes, as clear as autumn water, focused as she remembered. No wonder their clothes looked so familiar to her.

They were the three little girls who were tortured to death in the special episode.

Due to the greed and extortion of the ministers and corrupt officials in this world, corruption ran rampant, causing people's livelihoods to deteriorate, leaving them in extreme poverty. People lived in a dire state, with some villages being annihilated for failing to pay...

Chapter 212: Easy Victory

With a thud, Bulat hit the ground heavily. His armor was covered in scratches, some of which oozed scarlet blood, and his mask had been shattered, revealing a rather handsome face.

A long sword was pressed against his neck, its blade radiating a chilling coldness he could feel.

"Go ahead, kill me," Bulat said, blood trickling from his lips, his gaze resolute. "But don't expect me to surrender."

The silver-haired girl in the fox mask glanced at him, then withdrew the sword fr...

Chapter 211: Contest of Strength

With a deafening explosion, the location where the silver-haired girl stood erupted into a violent blast. Rocks instantly shattered, debris flew everywhere, dust billowed, and flames shot up into the sky, with waves of air creating a raging hurricane that shrouded the entire area in a cloud of dust.

"Good job, Mine," said the green-haired boy, smiling and giving a thumbs-up to the distance. He was Lubbock from Night Raid.

"Be careful!"

"So fast!"

Lubbock's pupils shran...

Chapter 210: First Battle With Night Raid

Although the danger beasts had lost their rationality, they could still sense the dangerous aura emanating from the silver-haired girl in front of them, and instinctively moved away from her. Seeing her relentlessly pursuing them, the danger beasts scattered in all directions.

But their speed could not match Kaguya, who was like a stream of light. As soon as they turned around, their heads were severed by a blade of cold light, and blood spurted into the sky.

In no time at all, th...

Chapter 209: Her Highness The Princess's Strength

The princess also had her own territory. Kaguya's territory was located in the northern part of the Empire, a dense primordial jungle. The population was relatively sparse, and there were no major cities, only scattered small villages. The largest city had no more than ten thousand people.

"A plague?" Kaguya asked in surprise.

"Yes," the guard replied solemnly. "It is a highly contagious and virulent virus. Within a week, thousands have been infected, and..." At this point, the gu...

Chapter 208: Training Kurome

"The toxins in your body have been cleared, so you don't need to eat those cookies anymore, understand?" Kaguya said, wiping the sweat from her forehead. "Once your body recovers, I'll help you increase your strength."

Just as Kaguya suspected, those cookies were not merely a snack to satisfy Kurome's cravings. The truth was, they contained drugs that could enhance one's power. These drugs enabled Kurome to maintain her strength, but their harmful effects were also evident.

Cleari...

Chapter 207: Transaction

Kurome hesitated for a moment and suddenly struggled like a frenzied kitten, her legs kicking furiously.

"Settle down," Kaguya said impatiently, giving her another slap.

However, Kurome seemed to ignore it, thrashing around like a fish out of water, her delicate face turning red as she shouted, "I'll kill you, I'll kill you!"

Seeing that Kurome refused to stop struggling, Kaguya finally became genuinely annoyed. She furrowed her brows and said in a low voice, "If you move ag...

Chapter 206: Behave Yourself!

"Oh dear," Kaguya scratched her silver hair, apologetically saying, "I think I might have hit a bit too hard."

Just now, she confirmed the identity of this girl: She was Kurome, the younger sister of Akame. This was apparent from her mention of "Yatsufusa."

The Yatsufusa was Kurome's Teigu, capable of controlling those slain by its blade through a curse. She could manipulate up to eight corpse puppets at once, which retained their appearance and movement abilities from when they w...

Chapter 205: Are You Just Playing With Me?

The black-haired girl's swordsmanship was extremely fierce, sweeping and decisive like a thunderbolt. Her swings were swift and blinding, making it difficult for the eye to follow. It seemed her swordsmanship had been honed between life and death, executed cleanly and without hesitation, aiming for a single, lethal strike.

If an ordinary person faced her, they likely wouldn't last more than a few moves before being decapitated. Unfortunately for her, she was facing Kaguya.

Kaguya ...

Chapter 204: Black-Haired Girl

Kaguya walked out of the palace and breathed a sigh of relief. As she expected, the emperor had agreed to let her freely leave the palace and even agreed to let her have her own guard. This meant that Kaguya had the power to organize her own forces, indicating that the young emperor was very fond of his sister.

However, even with Kaguya's subtle probing, the young emperor still followed the minister's advice and spoke of the minister with unwavering trust.

While Kaguya was lost in...

Chapter 203: Board A Pirate Ship

"Are you referring to Her Highness, the Princess?" Sayo asked uncertainly.

"Indeed," Kaguya replied slowly. "Though Her Highness the Princess is a woman, she has grand ambitions. Her goal is to eliminate the ministers, end the empire's brutal rule, eradicate the rebel forces, and allow the people to live in peace and happiness. I hope you will join us in rebuilding this world."

"But," Ieyasu hesitated, "Her Highness the Princess seems..."

He didn't finish his sentence, imply...

Chapter 202: Hell On Earth

Ieyasu and Sayo were stunned by the horrific scene inside the warehouse and didn't even notice when Kaguya came up behind them.

The warehouse was filled with numerous large iron cages, neatly arranged. The cages were rusty, stained with dark red blood, and emitted a nauseating smell.

Inside these cages were people.

They were naked, their bodies covered in scars, with no unblemished skin. Emaciated and skeletal, their faces wore expressions of lifeless numbness, like zombies....

Chapter 201: Unravel The Mystery

"If I truly wanted to kill you, you'd already be dead."

At that moment, a pleasant voice suddenly spoke from behind them.

Sayo's pupils contracted, and Ieyasu was also startled. They wanted to turn around but found their bodies wouldn't move, as if they were paralyzed, unable to even hold their weapons steadily.

From behind them, a silver-haired girl emerged, walking in front of them. Without them noticing, Kaguya, who should have been at a distance, had appeared right behin...

Chapter 200: Too Naive

Sayo felt dazed, as if her head were filled with mush. She had no strength in her body. It was like a nightmare; although her mind was relatively clear, her body seemed paralyzed and uncontrollable, as if a giant stone were pressing on her chest, making it hard to breathe.

An unprecedented feeling of fear arose from the depths of her heart. She panicked, wanting to move but unable to, as though a hand was gripping her heart tightly.

Finally, Sayo jolted awake, gasping for air, her...

Chapter 199: The End Of Evil

The commotion in the villa had already alerted the surrounding guards. Amid the sound of rushing footsteps, a squad of guards appeared outside the villa.

"Kill her, kill her!" the middle-aged man shouted in terror, pointing at the silver-haired girl approaching step by step.

"Yes!"

The guards, clad in armor and wielding swords, advanced towards Kaguya with steady steps. Their formation was tight, each guard supporting the other, clearly not mere household guards but trained ...

Chapter 198: Massacre

"Are they drunk?" Kaguya asked curiously, a piece of cod dangling from her mouth as she blinked.

"Yes, soon I will send them to a comfortable place to rest," Aria replied, a bloodthirsty smile playing on her lips. "And you, too—why didn't you drink the wine? It could at least make you enjoy yourself a little."

"No worries, my dear. Resisting makes it more enjoyable," the middle-aged man's once-kind face twisted into a grotesque expression, his eyes gleaming with depravity as he ...

Chapter 197: Treacherous Banquet

By the time Kaguya returned to the capital, it was already evening.

If Kaguya remembered correctly, these two were the first to meet their demise in "Akame ga Kill," and both deaths were quite tragic.

"Come, join us," the male host said kindly to Kaguya. "You must be hungry by now."

"Let's eat first. But why are you wearing a hood?" the female host asked curiously.

"Please make yourself at home," Aria said with a smile. "There's no need to be shy, and wearing that must...

Chapter 196: Could It Really Be Such A Coincidence?

By the time Kaguya returned to the capital, it was already evening.

The sky had darkened, and the scorching sun had set. The afterglow of the sunset cast a brilliant red across the clouds. Lights began to illuminate the city, the noise of the day gradually fading away as the bustling crowds on the streets disappeared.

The night in the capital seemed even more silent than elsewhere, perhaps due to the curfew, leaving the city cold and quiet, with only the flickering lights providin...

Chapter 195: Show Off Acting Skills

"You're the person the Imperial Army is searching for, right?" The blonde girl had a bright smile on her pretty face.

"How did you know?" Kaguya took a step back, feigning surprise, her body trembling slightly in cooperation.

"I've been watching you for a while," the blonde girl said, hands on her hips, smiling. "Seeing you sneaking around, I suspected you were a wanted criminal."

"Who are you?" Kaguya asked, her voice shaking. "Could it be you're..."

"No, no," the blo...

Chapter 194: Beauty Saves Beauty

"General Budo, are you alright?" The guards who had rushed to the scene hurried over to him.

"Send out the soldiers and search the entire capital. We must find that woman," Budo pushed away the guard who tried to help him, a cold glint flashing in his sharp eyes. He snorted, "She dared to take my Thunder Condensed Beam head-on; she must be injured and can't have gone far."

"Yes, sir!"

Meanwhile, Kaguya limped away, her face filled with frustration. She muttered, "That damn o...

Chapter 193: Battle Against General Budo

Kaguya was startled; she hadn't sensed the presence of that person before. It was as if they had appeared out of thin air. Kaguya frowned slightly, wondering if it was because her powers were being suppressed.

It seemed she could no longer rely on her usual habits, and this encounter served as a warning for Kaguya that she might face unexpected troubles if she was not cautious.

The incoming lightning struck almost instantly, resembling a frenzied silver serpent lunging at Kaguya.<...

Chapter 192: An Expert In Pyramid Schemes

"Sister, look! Under my rule, the people live in peace and happiness," the young emperor said, stretching out his arms with excitement. "Haven't I done well?"

Kaguya looked at the young emperor's joyful face and sighed inwardly. He was such a naive child, completely oblivious to the fact that he was being manipulated by the minister. To be fair, he had a good heart and his intentions were kind, but he lacked independence and was easily swayed by the likes of the minister.

"Yes, yo...

Chapter 191: Encounter With The Minister

Kaguya walked slowly through the palace, seemingly strolling but in reality observing the layout.

Unexpectedly, the palace was much larger than Kaguya had anticipated. Grand European-style buildings stood in rows, surrounded by lush green grass and vibrant flowers, with artificial hills and fountains scattered throughout. The environment was serene, and walking through it was refreshing and calming.

Suddenly, someone approached from the opposite direction.

The man was tall a...
