Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

Vol. 1 - Chapter 59 - Speedy Death

“Ahhh!”

After taking the lotus seed, Chen Rou’s body instantly erupted with violent spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy kept gushing from his body. He had clearly reached the early stage of the Divine Being realm!

Seeing this, the members of the Jiang family smiled.

Judging from this aura, the envoy really wanted to win now!

“Envoy Chen, kill her!” Jiang Zhen was so thrilled that he disregarded his status as a family head and shouted excitedly.

He simply wanted a swift victory and to take over Nanli City. He did not want anything unexpected to happen again.

After the violent aura gradually subsided, Chen Rou looked at Luo Ruying viciously and smiled smugly. “You should be proud to force me to this extent. But it ends here! Now, even if you want to surrender, it's too late!”

Forcibly consuming the Sacred Lotus Seed to increase his cultivation to the Divine Being realm would greatly damage his foundation!

This meant he would have difficulty breaking through to the Divine Being realm in the future!

This was his last trump card. It was also the reason for his confidence before the fight started.

However, if Luo Ruying did not force his hand, he really wished he did not have to do this.

Since he had been forced to do so, he would definitely not let off Luo Ruying easily!

The moment Chen Rou finished his sentence, golden light radiated from Luo Ruying’s eyes, and the image of Goddess Luo could be seen faintly behind her.

She flashed and appeared in front of Chen Rou. Looking at him coldly, she swung her heavenly sword!

The Goddess Luo image behind her also attacked!

This time, Chen Rou could see Luo Ruying's attack, but he had misjudged her true strength.

He was in shock. He used spiritual energy to create a barrier and raised his spirit sword to block the attack. But the Goddess Luo Sword effortlessly cut off his sword, and a golden sword beam passed through his neck!

Even the arena’s barrier was sliced open by the sword beam!

Chen Rou was stunned, standing there in disbelief. T-this is impossible! I lost! How did she do it?

Considering the power of her sword and speed, was she really just at the Human Immortal realm?

Chen Rou could not wrap his mind around this, but he no longer had the chance to find out.

As Luo Ruying’s heavenly sword returned to its sheathe with a crisp clang, Chen Rou’s head rolled off his neck!

The entire place fell into a deathly silence.

Chen Rou was dead!

The Jiang family had actually lost!

This cultivator at the peak of the Human Immortal realm was slaughtered in two moves by this woman!

He had just forcibly broken through to the Divine Being realm, but it was not enough!

Everyone was dumbstruck.

Many people thought the Jiang family would win, but unexpectedly…

After a brief shock, the Qi family broke out in joy.

“We won! The Qi family won!”

“Great!”

“Old Qi, we won!”

As the Qi family cheered, the spectators turned to the Qi family and congratulated them with equal enthusiasm.

This was the outcome everyone hoped for, and the Qi family did not let them down.

Luo Ruying jumped off the arena and walked toward Ning Yechen and Luo Hongye.

Ning Yechen carried Luo Hongye and walked toward Luo Ruying, ready to give his dear wife a hug for her hard work.

Unexpectedly, a figure got there before him and flew into Luo Ruying’s arms.

“Big Sister Luo, thank you! You’re so awesome!” Qi Yuan thanked Luo Ruying, hugging her tightly.

Qi Yuan's face was covered with tears of joy.

Luo Ruying smiled and said nothing.

Summoning Goddess Luo had expended all her spiritual energy.

Fortunately, thanks to her experience from her encounter with Old Ghost, along with Chen Rou’s relatively low cultivation, she did not have to overdraw on her spiritual energy.

“Good job!” Ning Yechen carried Luo Hongye over to Luo Ruying with a smile on his face.

He glanced angrily at Qi Yuan, who was still hugging Luo Ruying.

This girl stole his spot!

She really could not read the atmosphere…

Luo Ruying smiled proudly and took Luo Hongye from Ning Yechen.

As a former Empress of the Heavenly Realm, if she could not handle someone at the peak of the Human Immortal realm, she would have cultivated for nothing.

When the family of three was about to leave, Jiang Zhen’s furious voice came from behind. “Hang on! We don’t admit defeat! She cheated! She must have resorted to underhanded means. Otherwise, how could Envoy Chen lose?”

Jiang Zhen pointed at Luo Ruying and roared hysterically.

He could not accept this outcome!

Luo Ruying winning meant that the Jiang family would lose everything they controlled in Nanli City!

The entire city would belong to the Qi family!

All his hard work would be for nothing!

“Bah! Are you a sore loser? Do you plan on going against your word?” Qi Yuan looked at Jiang Zhen mockingly.

She had waited for this moment for a long time!

Finally, she and her family did not have to suffer the oppression of the Jiang family!

“We’ll never accept the results!” Jiang Zhen glared at Qi Yuan like a predator looking at its prey!

The people from the Jiang family rushed over with weapons raised and surrounded the Qi family.

A fight could break out at any time.

Han Guangzhi slowly landed from mid-air in front of the Jiang family. He looked at Jiang Zhen and the others with a cold gaze and said loudly, “The competition is over. Do you plan on going against the Treasures Merchant Alliance’s rules?”

Han Guangzhi released his spiritual energy instantly, making the members of the Jiang family retreat!

The Treasures Merchant Alliance had been invited to serve as witness to the competition, so it was a fair fight!

The Jiang family's actions were undoubtedly breaking the rules set by the Treasures Merchant Alliance.

The Jiang family was startled.

Unexpectedly, Han Guangzhi was at the Divine Being realm!

Moreover, the Treasures Merchant Alliance had branches throughout the world, so they were a force to be reckoned with. A small family like the Jiang family could not afford to offend them.

The crowd around them had long disliked the Jiang family for their arrogant and oppressive ways. Now, the Jiang family wanted to go back on their word after losing!

They supported the Qi family and stood behind them.

“The Jiang family has lost. Do you want to attack the Qi family now?”

“If you go back on your word, you will smear your business' name!”

“Get lost!”

The Jiang family instantly became the target of public criticism and was detested by everyone.

The members of the Jiang family clenched their fists tightly, snorted angrily, and turned to leave dejectedly.

With someone from the Treasures Merchant Alliance present and the angry crowd, now was not the time to touch the Qi family.

Just wait! One day, I will make everyone present pay! Jiang Zhen thought

It was an utter humiliation for the Jiang family today!

Qi Rongchang was all smiles. He even said from behind Jiang Zhen, “Family Head Jiang, by tomorrow, please prepare the contracts and deliver them to the Qi residence.”

Jiang Zhen was so angry his lungs were about to explode and did not answer.

He quickly left like a pathetic, disowned dog.
