Villainous Cao Cao: Inheriting Everything from the Chosen One

243: Everything you have belongs to me.Fang Ruodan’s expression was calm: ”Helping a tyrant? No, no, no, this is...”

She paused, a trace of piety flashing deep in her eyes: ”I have seen the destiny clearly.”

”Luo Qingcheng, you and I have cultivated until now, what is it for?”

Fang Ruodan’s voice carried a strange rhythm: ”Cao Bu possesses power far beyond our understanding; that is the key to the true other shore.”

”By submitting to him, we will eventually transcend the shackles of the Emperor Realm and achieve eternity.”

She extended her fair, white hand, a wisp of docile black and yellow qi lingering at her fingertips.

”Look, this is not slavery, but the ultimate sublimation.”

”My power is unprecedentedly strong, and my heart has never felt such peace and satisfaction.”

”Submitting to a greater existence, how is that not a form of wisdom?”

Anger surged within Luo Qingcheng’s chest, and she shouted sternly: ”Fang Ruodan! You are a dignified Great Emperor, yet you don’t even have a shred of backbone?”

”To fawn and beg, willing to be a plaything, and then to have the audacity to talk about wisdom and sublimation here—it is simply disgusting!”

Upon hearing this, Fang Ruodan smiled indifferently.

”Backbone? That is merely a shackle that the weak impose upon themselves.”

”Luo Qingcheng, put down your ridiculous stubbornness.”

”You will understand how wonderful this kind of submission is.”

Luo Qingcheng snorted coldly, turned her head away, and ceased arguing with Fang Ruodan.

She could already see that Fang Ruodan was completely beyond saving.

Cao Bu slowly withdrew his hand from the top of Gu Feng’s head.

At this moment, Gu Feng’s Divine Soul had already suffered heavy damage.

At the same time, the effect of the mad demon card planted earlier erupted completely!

”Who am I... I am an immortal... I am a demon... Kill! Kill! Kill!”

Gu Feng’s eyes were blood-red, and he began to attack everything around him indiscriminately, even tearing at his own flesh and blood.

Finally, in the midst of extreme madness and pain, Gu Feng’s spiritual power exploded, his Meridians shattered completely, his Divine Soul was annihilated, and he died.

Cao Bu looked indifferently at Gu Feng’s corpse as it fell, raised his hand to grab through the air, and collected the storage ring and emperor weapon on Gu Feng’s body, including the immortal bone that had already dimmed significantly.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he turned Gu Feng’s corpse into ashes before slowly turning around and walking step by step toward Luo Qingcheng, who had witnessed Gu Feng’s miserable death.

”It seems you still haven’t learned to be obedient.”

No joy or anger could be heard in Cao Bu’s voice, but a flash of light appeared in his hand, and the mysterious yin yang emperor stele manifested, transforming into a ruler about three feet long.

Yin-Yang Two Energies flowed along the body of the ruler.

”Get down,” Cao Bu commanded.

Luo Qingcheng’s delicate body trembled violently; looking at the yin-yang ruler, her eyes were filled with humiliation and resistance.

But under Fang Ruodan’s suppression, she eventually had to comply.

Cao Bu held the yin-yang ruler and struck down, neither too lightly nor too heavily.

”Do you know you were wrong?”

Luo Qingcheng bit her lip tightly, refusing to speak.

It was not because of the pain, but the humiliation—extreme humiliation.

”I ask, you answer. Do you know you were wrong?”

”Wrong... I was wrong,” Luo Qingcheng choked out with a sobbing voice.

Her former dignity was completely gone at this moment.

If the various powerhouses of the Spirit Realm saw this scene, they would likely be shocked speechless.

”Where were you wrong?” Cao Bu asked again.

”I... I shouldn’t have launched a sneak attack.”

”Anything else?”

”I... I shouldn’t have disobeyed.”

”Anything else?”

”I... I shouldn’t have had other thoughts.”

”If you dare to have any disloyal thoughts again, next time it won’t be this simple. Do you understand?”

”Un... understood. Qingcheng understands. I will never dare again,” Luo Qingcheng’s psychological defense completely collapsed, and she sobbed, begging for mercy.

Just then.

The light gate at the exit of the Secret Realm shook violently, and spatial ripples spread out.

Immediately after, figures appeared, and hundreds of Cultivators poured out one after another!

These Cultivators were all powerhouses from the Southern Region, who had previously been unable to probe inside with their Divine Sense twice in a row.

This had greatly piqued their curiosity, so they arrived one after another, eventually gathering into such a large group.

It was just that they never expected to see such a shocking scene the moment they entered.

After a brief silence, there was an uproar of terrified discussion.

”That... that is the Eternal Silence Empress?!”

”Cao Bu?! He is...”

”...”

The moment Luo Qingcheng felt these gazes cast upon her, her delicate body stiffened suddenly, and then she began to tremble violently!

A boundless sense of shame instantly engulfed her.

She lowered her head tightly, wishing she could bury her face in the dirt.

Cao Bu’s movements paused slightly, the ruler stopping in mid-air.

He turned his head slowly, his gaze sweeping calmly over those Cultivators, a trace of icy chill flashing deep in his eyes.

He gave Fang Ruodan an extremely subtle look.

Fang Ruodan understood immediately.

Just as those hundreds of Cultivators were still immersed in shock.

”Hum—!”

The xuanhuang creation cauldron appeared silently, its body instantly expanding to the size of a mountain, dropping down billions of strands of incredibly heavy black and yellow qi!

At the same time, a terrifying Emperors Might that froze everyone’s Divine Soul descended with a boom!

”Not good! Run!”

”A supreme dao emperor weapon! It’s actually a supreme dao emperor weapon!”

”Cao Bu wants to silence us! Quickly spread the news of this place out!!”

Terrified screams erupted instantly, and the crowd fled in all directions.

But under the coverage of the xuanhuang creation cauldron, their movements became incredibly sluggish.

”Suppress!”

Fang Ruodan parted her red lips slightly.

The xuanhuang creation cauldron pressed down fiercely!

The vast black and yellow qi rolled down wildly!

”No—!”

”Puff!” ”Puff!” ”Puff!” ...

Hundreds of Cultivators, along with their protective Spiritual Artifacts, were instantly vaporized under the washing of the black and yellow qi, not even leaving a trace of dust behind.

After a long while, everything returned to calm.

Cao Bu’s expression did not fluctuate in the slightest.

He put away the yin-yang ruler and looked down at Luo Qingcheng, who was still lying on the ground.

Then he bent down, pinched the rope connected to the collar, and lifted the limp Luo Qingcheng up: ”Remember, everything of yours, including your shame, belongs only to me. If outsiders see it, there is only a dead end.”

Luo Qingcheng’s face was as pale as paper, her eyes empty and numb.

With a thought from Cao Bu, the phantom of the Time Wheel Emperor Palace appeared beside him, and the palace gate opened.

He wrapped one arm around Luo Qingcheng’s slender waist and signaled to Fang Ruodan with the other hand.

Fang Ruodan put away the xuanhuang creation cauldron, her figure flashed, and she arrived beside Cao Bu.

The three of them entered the open gate of the Time Wheel Emperor Palace simultaneously.

Inside the Time Wheel Emperor Palace, in a luxurious hall.

Cao Bu placed the distraught Luo Qingcheng on a jade couch covered with soft animal skins.

Fang Ruodan stood quietly to the side.

Cao Bu’s own appearance began to change, and soon he transformed into an ordinary-looking, middle-aged Cultivator in black robes, with his cultivation fluctuations suppressed to the Peak of the World Venerable Realm.

”You two rest here for the time being,” Cao Bu instructed the two: ”Ruo Dan, watch her.”

”Okay,” Fang Ruodan nodded.

Luo Qingcheng curled up on the couch, burying her face in her arms, without any response.

Cao Bu paid no more attention, his figure flashed, and he left the Time Wheel Emperor Palace.

Outside, near the exit of the Secret Realm.

As soon as the gloomy-looking, middle-aged Cao Bu in black robes stood still, several streams of light sped over from the horizon.

Leading them was an old man with white hair and beard, whose cultivation was in the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

”Fellow Daoist, please stop!” The old man stepped forward and asked while cupping his hands: ”We noticed that the Emperors Might soared to the heavens here just now. I wonder what exactly happened inside the Secret Realm?”

Cao Bu showed an expression of lingering fear and lowered his voice: ”Don’t mention it! It was practically haunted in there!”

He spoke vividly: ”I hadn’t gone far inside when I saw two ancient beast remains that had become spirits fighting! One was a ten-thousand-foot-long bone Dragon, and the other was a Qilin skeleton as large as a mountain. The Emperors Might was leaked out from them fighting!”

The old man and the Disciples listened, dumbfounded.

”As they were fighting, I don’t know what ancient Restriction was triggered, but a black mountain deep in the Secret Realm suddenly exploded, spraying out countless black shadows that bite people! They pounced on anyone they saw, and quite a few Fellow Daoists couldn’t run in time; they were wrapped by those black shadows and turned to ash!”

He pointed to the calm light gate behind him: ”It seems to have quieted down in there for now, but those two skeleton frames are roaring by the edge of an abyss. In any case, I don’t dare to stay.”

The old man and the others looked at each other, half-believing and half-doubting.

”Thank you for telling us, Fellow Daoist!” The old man hesitated for a moment, but ultimately could not resist the greed for Opportunity: ”We still want to go in and take a look.”

After saying this, he led the Disciples and flew into the light gate.

Cao Bu stood where he was, watching them enter the light gate, a barely perceptible cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

”Take your time searching.”

He did not linger any longer, transformed into an inconspicuous sword light, and quickly moved away from here.
