Chapter 42 — Flame Empress Compromises! Father, Let You Witness a Good Show!
“What!?”
“A kiss?” Flame Empress was instantly enraged.
Her phoenix eyes were cold as frost.
This bastard, how dare he!
She, Flame Empress, even with only a single soul remaining, still possessed the power of the Soul Transformation realm!
This bastard dared to utter such words!
The powerful pressure of the Soul Transformation realm surged towards Yang Chen.
“Yang Chen, are you courting death? Insulting me time and again, do you really think I wouldn’t dare to kill you?”
Flame Empress’s soul was now in a state of combustion, and her overall strength was actually much stronger than before. But, Yang Chen was not afraid at all.
Instead, he had an amused look on his face:
“Senior Flame Empress, you want to kill me, but you should think it through carefully! If I die, you won’t get the Body Forming Pill! Don’t you want to take revenge? The vengeance sought for one’s parents’ death is as deep as the heavens!!”
“You! How do you know?” Yang Chen’s words stunned Flame Empress.
The revenge for her parents was her biggest secret and the driving force that kept her going. She had never mentioned it to anyone. Even Lin Yan didn’t know about it. How did this bastard find out?
“Hehe, how I know about it is none of Senior Flame Empress’s concern! Senior Flame Empress only needs to weigh the pros and cons, and see if it’s worth it!”
“You bastard!”
Flame Empress’s phoenix eyes were as cold as frost, staring fixedly at Yang Chen.
Although she wanted to strike this little bastard with a palm and kill him, she still restrained herself. Reason prevailed over impulse.
This guy’s words were vulgar, but they made some sense. She had endured bitterly in the ring space for a thousand years. Was she really going to give up the attainable Body Forming Pill for the sake of face and dignity?
After a moment.
Flame Empress closed her beautiful eyes slightly, sighed, and made her decision.
“Forget it! I agree to your condition! But, only once!”
“Senior Flame Empress, rest assured, I keep my word! However, I’ll be choosing the location!”
“Lo … location?” Flame Empress was taken aback.
A kiss was a simple matter, what was the need for a location?
She didn’t think too much about it. Because her soul state could not be delayed any further.
“Fine, I agree to your terms! Hand over the Body Forming Pill!”
Yang Chen communicated with the System in his mind.
He spent 1,500 VPs to purchase a Body Forming Pill.
It was a bit painful. But, considering the plan ahead, it would be worth it.
He handed the Body Forming Pill to Flame Empress.
“Indeed, it’s the Body Forming Pill! What is this bastard’s background?”
Flame Empress was astonished in her heart. But she didn’t think too much about it, and quickly consumed it.
Soon, blood vessels began to appear on Flame Empress’s soul body. The burning of her soul essence also stopped. Her faint figure gradually became more substantial. This was her flesh body being reformed. Needless to say, this pill was indeed miraculous.
Actually, with Flame Empress’s Soul Transformation realm strength, she could have previously regained a physical body through body possession.
However, if she possessed a body, she would have a hard time surpassing her previous self in this life.
Her potential would be limited.
Moreover, body possession had high requirements for the physical body, making it difficult to find a suitable one.
But the Body Forming Pill could form her an original body!
Although she would need to cultivate again, it was much better than body possession.
Flame Empress turned into a red light and entered a house in the city to fully form her body with all her strength.
“Your Highness! We have found traces of Lin Yan!”
At this moment, a Golden Core cultivator came to report to Yang Chen.
“Oh? You found traces of Yan’er? Hehe, how coincidental! Lead me there!”
…
In a mountain range of the Liyang Kingdom.
Dozens of Golden Core cultivators surrounded a gloomy-looking young man in black clothes from afar.
“Lin Yan, you have slaughtered over a thousand cultivators and destroyed numerous cities. Your crimes deserve execution. Surrender now!”
“Lin Yan, the Holy Son has personally arrived in the Liyang Kingdom. You cannot escape your doom!”
Lin Yan held a huge sword, with black light swirling around him. His gaze, however, was fixed on the figure in front of him. Yang Chen walked forward with his hands behind his back, his steps graceful, as if a transcendent had descended to the mortal world.
“Yan’er, your father never expected that in just a year, you would have fallen to such depths! Alas, it’s my fault and your mother’s fault for focusing on taking care of your younger brothers and sisters, and neglecting you! Leading you to commit such grave crimes!” Yang Chen looked deeply aggrieved.
“Yang Chen! You bastard I’ll kill you!”
Lin Yan howled like a wild beast.
His mind flashed back to the scene from that night.
This bastard Yang Chen had actually … to his mother.
Ah!
Damn it!
Lin Yan’s heart was filled with hatred.
He swung his huge sword directly at Yang Chen.
“Stubborn and unyielding, even daring to attack your own father! It seems you have truly been possessed by the demonic arts!”
Yang Chen sighed and slapped down with his palm.
In the sky, a gigantic handprint dozens of feet wide slammed down.
It struck Lin Yan directly, slamming him into the ground.
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.
With just one strike from Yang Chen, he was severely injured.
“Damn it!”
Lin Yan struggled to stand up and tried to pick up his huge sword.
But a chilling long sword was pressed against his neck.
Looking up, he saw that exquisitely beautiful face that, even in his ferocious and bloodthirsty state, would still surface in his mind.
“Senior Sister Xueyan, you!”
“Hmph, Lin Yan, don’t call me Senior Sister Xueyan! You demon! I hate you so much that I want to kill you with a single sword strike!”
Shen Xueyan’s face was as cold as frost.
Her unfamiliar gaze made Lin Yan’s heart ache with madness.
Senior Sister Xueyan, how could she be so cold and heartless towards him?
As if he were her enemy!
His heart ached so much!
Ah!
[Ding! Lin Yan feels desperate and heartbroken towards his goddess Shen Xueyan, his state of mind has collapsed. Plundering 1000 points of Providence Luck from the Son of Destiny, Lin Yan, the host has gained 1000 VPs!]
[Ding! The female lead Shen Xueyan has completely broken off from Lin Yan. Plundering 1000 points of Providence Luck from the Son of Destiny, Lin Yan, the host has gained 1000 VPs!]
Hmm?
Not bad, not bad.
Yang Chen nodded with satisfaction.
Bringing Shen Xueyan along was the right choice.
[Ding! The Son of Destiny Lin Yan’s Providence Luck value has dropped to 3000 points, he no longer bears the Fate of Destiny!]
Hmm?
Yang Chen was stunned.
Lin Yan’s luck value dropped to 3000 points, and he no longer bears the fate of Destiny?
That was fast. Alas. It’s my own fault. I plundered Lin Yan’s luck value too quickly. However, this is fine. It’s convenient to send Lin Yan off on his journey.
“Yan’er, you have killed over a thousand cultivators and destroyed numerous cities, committing such heinous crimes that even the heavens cannot tolerate. Even I, your father, cannot protect you!”
“Alas!”
Yang Chen sighed deeply with a sorrowful expression, appearing very reluctant.
Then he spoke solemnly to Shen Xueyan and the others: “You all represent me, the Holy Son, to pay a visit to those cultivation forces whose disciples were killed by Lin Yan! Tell them that Lin Yan will be personally executed by me, his stepfather!”
Everyone could hear the sadness in Yang Chen’s voice.
Only Lin Yan glared at him ferociously, as if wanting to tear him apart.
“Yes, Your Highness!”
The group of Golden Core cultivators departed.
Left in the field were only Yang Chen and Lin Yan.
“Yang Chen, you bastard! Even as a ghost, I won’t let you off! You just wait!”
Lin Yan cursed furiously.
Yang Chen turned to look at him.
“Yan’er, I’m afraid you won’t even have the chance as a ghost! After all, you’re only at the Golden Core realm, not having reached the Nascent Soul realm yet!”
“Ah, you bastard!”
Lin Yan was nearly going mad.
Bloody tears flowed from his eyes.
At this moment, Yang Chen sensed fluctuations in energy from afar.
This aura belonged to Flame Empress.
It seemed she had completely reformed her physical body.
Yang Chen looked at the sky, then at Lin Yan lying on the ground like a rabid dog. A smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Yan’er, your father will let you see, no, listen to a good show! Consider it a father-son bonding experience!”
