Traveling Back Early: Forcing the Young Empress to Sign a Lifetime Servitude Contract

24: The vengeful little rascal”What?”

Zhao Wuying was in disbelief upon hearing this.

A non-threatening Little Girl actually dared to speak so arrogantly to him?

This is rebellion.

Everyone is rebelling!

”Hahaha...”

Suddenly, Zhao Wuying began to laugh maniacally, his voice unable to hide his grief and indignation. ”Even if the King of Heaven himself intervenes today... none of you should dream of leaving alive.”

Boom—

The Zhao Family was destroyed; he no longer had any weaknesses.

Zhao Wuying activated his Dantian Origin, and his violent Profound Power swept out like dark clouds, threatening to destroy the entire town.

The fury of a dignified Void Integration Realm powerhouse was truly a scene of doomsday.

Everyone fled in all directions in terror.

Sensing such an Aura, Jiang Susu nervously pursed her small lips, but she did not take a single step back, standing firmly by Chen Qingxuan’s side.

Only Chen Qingxuan remained calm at this moment, even feeling a bit like laughing. ”It seems that even now, you haven’t realized you’ve been heavily poisoned!”

”Kid, your schemes end here... Pfft!”

Before he could finish, Zhao Wuying suddenly felt a sharp pain in his internal organs, followed by a mouthful of foul blood spraying from his mouth.

”How can this be...?”

Seeing the foul blood on the ground emitting white smoke, Zhao Wuying’s brain buzzed.

When was he poisoned?

He had thought Chen Qingxuan was just spouting nonsense, trying to bluff while on the brink of death.

But now, the piercing pain surging through his body and the cold sweat he couldn’t help but break into clearly told him—he was poisoned.

And it was a poison he had never heard of, one that made even him feel threatened!

”Kid... when did you plant the poison?” Zhao Wuying questioned in terror.

”What do you think?”

Chen Qingxuan remained as calm as a light breeze.

He wasn’t some reckless youth who would be foolish enough to think that after using a beast soul self-detonation to severely wound Zhao Wuying, he could deal with the Zhao Family without any worries.

So, from the start of the plan, he had planted a Gu poison within the beast soul. What truly dealt with Zhao Wuying wasn’t the beast soul’s self-detonation, but the Gu poison within the explosion.

Otherwise, that beast soul would have been a waste.

”The beast soul... there was poison inside the beast soul.”

Zhao Wuying quickly realized as well.

”What kind of poison is this that even my Void Integration Realm strength couldn’t detect it... Kid, give me the antidote... As long as you give me the antidote... this old man will let bygones be bygones... I’ll even owe you a favor, how about it?”

Realizing he had fallen into a trap, Zhao Wuying’s attitude instantly took a sharp turn.

”Haha.”

Chen Qingxuan laughed out loud.

Looking at the other’s pathetic, pleading appearance, he said heart-wrenchingly, ”Look at you. We had no grievances, yet you insisted on snatching my sword. Now, not only has the entire Zhao Family been wiped out, but you, an old bag of bones, were almost blown up so badly even your own mother wouldn’t recognize you. Was it worth it? Tell me... can you really let bygones be bygones?”

”A gentleman’s word is his bond... This old man can swear before the people of Licheng... I will absolutely let bygones be bygones,” Zhao Wuying promised repeatedly.

The poisonous power rampaging through his body had truly made him panic.

”I want to let you go too, but...” Chen Qingxuan shook his head calmly. ”Do you know that life is like a game of chess? Once a move is made, there is no taking it back.”

”What...?”

Zhao Wuying was stunned.

Realizing he had been toyed with by Chen Qingxuan, he completely lost it. ”Waaaah... Even if I die... this old man will drag you, you beast, down with me!”

Swish—

Zhao Wuying charged out abruptly, attempting to take Chen Qingxuan with him before he died from the poison.

But in the next moment, his full-power strike was easily blocked by Chen Qingxuan’s sword. ”That’s it? Old geezer, you still need to train!”

Pfft—

A sword light flashed between heaven and earth.

In an instant, one of Zhao Wuying’s arms was severed, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

Although he was a Void Integration Realm powerhouse, he had already been severely depleted of Origin Qi in the previous beast soul self-detonation. Now, with his Dantian corroded by the poison, even exerting Core Transformation Realm power was a pipe dream;

How could he possibly withstand the cold gleam of the divine phoenix sword?

Chi chi chi—

Following the sounds of sword winds, Zhao Wuying’s limbs were first sliced off, and he let out hysterical screams.

Only then did his throat meet the liberating strike of the sword.

With this, a thousand-year-old aristocratic family collapsed.

”Brother is so great... Brother is so amazing!”

Jiang Susu held her small face in her hands, looking at Chen Qingxuan with eyes full of admiration.

Although she was young, she understood the weight of a thousand-year-old family. Yet, Chen Qingxuan, still in his teens, could single-handedly destroy the Zhao Family and play a Void Integration Realm Old Ancestor in the palm of his hand... The young girl’s heart, which admired the strong, was thoroughly stirred by Chen Qingxuan.

In the next moment, she grabbed Chen Qingxuan’s arm. ”Brother, Susu will Cultivate hard from now on, and then I’ll accompany Brother to kill enemies together.”

”Good, good, good.”

Facing Jiang Susu’s plans for the future, Chen Qingxuan only nodded perfunctorily.

After all, once he finished dealing with the Zhao Family, he planned to send the Little Girl to Yihua Palace.

Before that, he had to loot the corpses first.

After a round of looting, Chen Qingxuan smiled more happily than a dog that had eaten feces.

The countless Spirit Pills and Immortal Plants, the innumerable purple crystal coins, and various rare treasures were comparable to looting an entire city.

This wealth could buy ten Core Transformation Realm beast soul scrolls.

As for the swords found from the Zhao Family, Chen Qingxuan directly let the divine phoenix sword devour them, which was efficient and saved a lot of trouble.

In short, the Zhao Family’s foundation was even wealthier than imagined, causing the already wealthy Chen Qingxuan to feel the pain of having too much money.

Thus.

Chen Qingxuan immediately took Jiang Susu to a more prosperous town a hundred miles away. They first stayed in a Merchant House, and he used his acquired wealth to exchange for some new trump cards;

Of course, he also bought some swords to feed the divine phoenix sword, as it was currently his most powerful asset.

Besides rewarding himself, Chen Qingxuan didn’t forget to nurture the Little Girl.

In just a few days, he first helped Jiang Susu temper her body to its limit, and then used the Spirit Gathering Array, Medicinal Pills, and other items to help her Breakthrough to the Late Stage of the Spirit Sea Realm.

As for himself, he had now reached the Peak of Bone Building, only one step away from the Core Transformation Realm.

This improvement wasn’t entirely due to Jiang Susu; Huang Qingxue’s role was also significant. A few days ago, the latter had reached the Peak of the Spirit Sea Realm due to a certain Opportunity;

Thus, it provided quite a bit of improvement back to Chen Qingxuan.

”It seems the Little Pitiful One has officially adapted to the cultivation in the Divine Phoenix Sect... I wonder if she misses me.”

Chen Qingxuan rubbed his chin and said with emotion.

Perhaps she had already realized he wasn’t an Evil Cultivator, but a... handsome brother who did good deeds without asking for anything in return.

Little did he know.

At this moment, in the Divine Phoenix Sect, Huang Qingxue, who had just finished cultivating, returned to her room. The first thing she did wasn’t to rest, but to take down the portrait hanging on the wall;

Then, as usual, she lifted her jade-like foot and stepped on it.

”Dead Evil Cultivator... Sooner or later, I’ll stuff my foot into your mouth... and ask if you like it!”

Huang Qingxue swore fiercely.

Thinking of Chen Qingxuan’s smile, her exhaustion from hard cultivation instantly vanished, and she turned back to the training grounds... A few days later.

In front of the gates of Yihua Palace, two unfamiliar figures appeared—it was Chen Qingxuan and Jiang Susu.

”Yihua Palace?”

Looking at the prominent characters on the door plaque, Jiang Susu blinked her large eyes.

Then, she looked at Chen Qingxuan with a pure expression. ”Brother, what are we doing here?”
