The Almighty Dragon General

In a mysterious realm with a purple-red glow, a woman with an enticing figure and stunning looks was seated cross-legged on a vast lotus. Her eyes were tightly shut, and a sinister purple-red aura enveloped her. She was breathtakingly beautiful but also emitted an ominous aura.
Numerous blue spirits swirled around her, bearing fangs and claws at her. The spectacle was terrifying.
Suddenly, a vibrant purple-pink lotus materialized behind her. Countless spectral hands immediately materialized and devoured the surrounding spirits.
Shortly after, a brilliant purple-red radiance erupted from the woman's body, causing tremors to spread throughout the area.
After what seemed like an eternity, the woman opened her eyes, and a purple-red glow shot out.
At that moment, a sinister laugh echoed through the void.
“What a surprise. Although only half of your powers are left, you still possess such great comprehension skills. It seems there's still hope for Hokuwn."

Thea slowly lifted her head and said, "We're merely working together for now, Emperor Harlan. I do not belong to Hokuwn."
Harlan said with a sly smile, "You're a being born from energy, so naturally, you hold disdain for demons of Hokuwn. However, to trigger the Tai Chi Tribulation and annihilate Yehria, you'll need all my inheritance to gain the necessary strength."
Thea snorted, not replying to him.
Harlan sighed. "I understand you've pinned all hope on your husband, the Chosen One. However, I must warn you. He can't stand against Zymurgy by himself."
Thea sneered, "All I need to do is kill Yehria!"
Harlan raised his voice, saying, "Don't you understand? Yehria is Zymury's representative. To get rid of her, you'll have to fight all of Zymurgy."
Thea refrained from replying to him.
Harlan persisted, "Although you've regained full strength through Hokuwn, you're still only at the Xurxo Daeclon Rank. You should be much clearer about Zumurgy's strength than I am."
Thea silently closed her eyes.
Harlan was unwilling to give up. He persuaded again, "Becoming Hokuwn's ruler isn't that bad. Zymurgy portrays us as demons, but it's simply a mischaracterization.
"Accepting my inheritance would grant you not just the power to defeat Yehria, but it'll also greatly help your husband resist Zymurgy."
Despite his relentless persuasions, Thea maintained her stance and completely ignored him.
