Return Of The Monarch - Chapter 63 Conflic
The skies roared to life. Under the beaming glimmers of light, a handsome hydra-attired man opened a luxurious metallic door with a smile; his dark eyes peered in amusement.
From outside the extensive manor, a beautiful scarlet-robed woman had appeared out of thin air within its land. With large but elegant strides, Zhi Ruo had walked past the guards undetected.
Leaning against his toned chest, Que Nuying, a slender blonde, coyly drew circles on the hydra-attired man’s defined abdomen. Meeting the scarlet-robed woman’s cold face, she frowned, “Zhi Ruo.”
Similar to a frightened cat, Que Nuying hid deeper within her doting man’s embrace. Cuddling her, this caused Chan Aiguo’s large smile to brighten even more. In the first place, he was not concerned with the reasons for Zhi Ruo’s visit.
At this stage, Chan Aiguo had consolidated his realm. Becoming a true Transcendent, his confidence had grown by leaps and bounds.
“It appears that the guards in the place are quite useless.” Facing her unwavering stare, Chan Aiguo was undisturbed; his heart no longer spiraled out of control. Prior to becoming a Transcendent, from top to bottom, he had been obsessed with Zhi Ruo.
When Long Fengge had died, his first thought was not about the loss of a dear friend who had saved him countless times; instead, Chan Aiguo desired everything that had belonged to the master of the Secret Legion.
“Zhn has to find replacements then.” As the leader of the traitors, Chan Aiguo had recognized that there would be no room for retreat upon taking action on that fateful day.
“You” Sneaking a peek at the scarlet-robed woman, Que Nuying clenched her teeth. This Zhi Ruo had taken everything that should have been hers, causing numerous insecurities.
From the preferential treatment that Zhi Ruo had received from Long Fengge to their difference in status, it wasn’t fair. Unknowingly, Que Nuying thought of herself as inferior, which led to all these comparisons.
On the surface, Long Fengge had treated everyone in the Secret Legion around the same. With his indifference and cold attitude, it was difficult to tell if he favored anyone at all, but the majority of the Secret Legion knew that he cared about them beneath the facades.
“Enough.” The chill within Zhi Ruo’s eyes could freeze a mortal to death in an instant. As top cultivators, how could weak guards ever detect them? In the Dragon Continent, there were a select few fabled formations that could detect Nascent Soul cultivators.
However, around the manor, there was not a single formation in sight. Oozing with arrogance, Chan Aiguo disdained everyone beneath him. Ascending to the fabled Transcendent realm, he had begun thinking of himself as a superior being to the masses.
In the span of these last months, Chan Aiguo had become the sole overlord over the former Long Kingdom, which was now renamed to the Chan Dynasty. Furthermore, he had extended his influence to reign over the entire Dragon Continent. Soon enough, he would even traverse to other continents.
“What’s the rush?” Smiling, Chan Aiguo furrowed his brows. In a gentle voice, he stated, “Please, come inside, Zhi Ruo. We can talk over the finest Xin wine.”
The price of Xin wine reached over a thousand high-tier spirit stones with ease. In the Dragon Continent, all the alcohol fanatics had acknowledged it as the best wine, boasting a crisp, refreshing taste along with cultivational benefits.
“Time is the one thing that can solve and end almost anything. For us humans, we need to learn how to move on. Nothing is eternal.” Offering his hand to the scarlet-robed woman, Chan Aiguo’s expression was serious.
“This is the final stick that I will be handing the Secret Legion. If I willed it so, I could make the name disappear from the face of the Eastern World forever,” Chan Aiguo lectured. “Come to Zhn’s side, Zhi Ruo.”
“We can look over the world together, eclipsing all prior couple tales. With our high lifespans, everyone around us will cease to exist, but we will persist on together as one.”
In response to Chan Aiguo’s nauseating words, Zhi Ruo remained impassive. Meanwhile, Que Nuying’s red lips twitched, but she did not dare to retort. Within the last few months, she had watched her lover ascend to greatness.
for visiting.
With each passing night, there would be a new beautiful woman clung to him. As one of the most favored women in the harem, Que Nuying was unwilling to fall from grace. Under her breath, she grimaced, “Must I be beneath Zhi Ruo forever?”
In the end, turmoil was unavoidable within a large harem, and this trend would remain until the end of time. Often, trouble would be just around the corner.
Conflict was impending. It was human nature to see that the grass was greener on the other side. Unbeknownst to Que Nuying, her attitude had become much more submissive than before.
Throughout the Dragon Continent, Zhi Ruo was a famous, renowned figure. The public regarded her as the most beautiful woman in the entire world. Worshipping her as the ice goddess, millions of men dreamed to be the special one.
At this time, Chan Aiguo was still unaware of the fact that Zhi Ruo had become a Transcendent. When he was about to continue spouting his dreams, a sharp golden blade had already pierced through his heart.
Not allowing the hydra-attired Chan Aiguo to recuperate, Zhi Ruo’s eyes shone with a bright golden light, overshadowing even Feng Hui’s power when he was at her stage.
For Chan Aiguo, there had not even been a single sign that Zhi Ruo would launch such a sudden attack. Furthermore, he did not dare to believe that she had also become a Transcendent. While he had been waiting for an answer, her lips did not even flutter before sending him a killing blow.
Within the depths of her Dantian, a glorious sight was brewing. In a flash, Zhi Ruo’s bloodline revealed itself in all its wonder. An enlightening power that should not be possible in a mortal world. Fusing to become one, her ‘Zhi Clan’ bloodline had sprouted to life!
