Qi Empire

The **Qi Empire** was a human empire located in the Star Continent of the Tristar Crescent Abode.

## Background

It was founded by a cultivator that found the treasure trove inside Riverfang Mountains. Even though he was only able to skim some treasures from the outer regions of the mountain, it still allowed him to gain many Immortal cultivation techniques, formations, divine abilities etc. Just this alone allowed him to create an empire that amassed a territory of millions of kilometers within just a few tens of thousands of years.

Ultimately, the Flamewing King heard rumors of this treasure trove and silently abducted a few high-ranking officials of the Qi Empire. Through soul-scouring them, he learned the truth behind the rumors and suddenly launched a blitzkrieg attack against the Qi Empire. Unprepared, the Qi Empire quickly fell with its many Loose Immortals and Earth Immortals perishing along with most of the royal family. Only the Crown Prince and two Princesses of the Qi Empire survived through the sacrifices of their subordinates and escaped.

In the past, high-ranking officials of the Qi Empire had plotted against Bluecliff Xiaoyu's Bluecliff Clan by forcing three Xiantian Diremonsters to attack the tribe while secretly crippling the two Xiantian experts of the tribe. This resulted in the deaths of everyone in the Bluecliff Clan. At the last moment, Everlotus, an elder of the Qi Empire, "magically" appeared and save Bluecliff Xiaoyu. Her tribe's destruction led to her leaning heavily on Everlotus, whom she took on as her master, and she became incomparably devoted and loyal to the Qi Empire. Thus, her karmic merit positively affected them and their luck noticeably improved.

## History

### Book Thirteen

After being on the run for over two decades, they ran into Ji Ning who wished to take on Bluecliff Xiaoyu as his disciple due to the vast amount of karmic merit that surrounded her. Initially, they were opposed to this idea as they also understood that Xiaoyu's presence would bring them luck. However, eventually, they acquiesced after Ji Ning promised to either kill the Flamewing King or protect them for one year. Afterwards, Ji Ning killed many Flamewing guards, some that even contained Loose Immortals among their ranks. During this battle, the Qi Empire's survivors ran away while Ji Ning was fighting. Qi Ruhui even went so far as trapping Ji Ning with the Flamewing guards so that he would be forced to fight while they fled. Enraged, Ji Ning instantly killed Qi Ruhui after he dealt with the Flamewing guards. He then used his [Soulcharmer Art] to force Qi Ruyu's to answer whether she was involved in Qi Ruhui's despicable ploy. He also did the same thing to Qi Rufeng. Suddenly, he asked her Bluecliff Xiaoyu's past which he was suspicious about and Qi Rufeng subconsciously confessed the Qi Empire's despicable means to force Bluecliff Xiaoyu to work for them.

Finally, the Flamewing King, Goldfur Bearking, Jadetoad King, Skysoar King, Snowfox King and the remaining seven Monster Kings appeared where Ji Ning was. Ji Ning cleverly lowered his level of power and attacked the Flamewing King as if mad. This caused the Flamewing King to lower his guard and get killed by Ji Ning who suddenly increased his power. This resulted in Ji Ning essentially crippling the Monster Kings as the loss of the Flamewing King resulted in them being unable to use their "Grand Soaring Bear Formation" which allowed them to even suppress high-level Celestial Immortals. This allowed Ji Ning and his Primaltwin to be able to easily overpower the Monster Kings. Ultimately, he killed eight of them before the remaining four, including the Goldfur Bearking, escaped. Later, he tracked down and killed the Snowfox King, as well.

When Qi Ruyu and Qi Rufeng learnt of Ji Ning might, they instantly begged him to take them on as his disciples. However, he denied them, removed them from his Immortal Estate and left.
