The Eight Empresses Betrayed Me, Only to Deeply Regret It After Being Reborn

Vermilion Bird.

In her past life, she had been the Vermilion Bird Demon Empress.

That title had always seemed strange to many. After all, in the Nine Heavens, who didn’t know the Nine-Life Heavenly Sovereign? His hatred for the demon race was infamous — he had slaughtered their kind endlessly, with nothing but loathing in his heart.

And yet, the Vermilion Bird, a divine beast by nature, deliberately called herself the Demon Empress.

It wasn’t until Lu Ye faced his tribulation that people finally understood.

The reason the Vermilion Bird Empress bore that name was simple — to spite the Nine-Life Heavenly Sovereign.

You hate demons?

Then I’ll crown myself Demon Empress.

...

The Vermilion Bird had made her move, determined to break through the encirclement with Yue Hongling in tow.

But the Eight Desolations Lock-Kill Formation was not so easily broken. In an instant, eight prodigies fell into formation, sealing off every possible escape route.

"You’ve got some nerve, turning your back on the demon race!" roared a creature covered in armored scales, resembling a bipedal pangolin.
