My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife

Seeing that the groups of self-cultivators were cowering behind Qingfeng Li, Black Puppy was irritated, ”Get away from us! What are you all doing hiding behind our backs?”

Among them, a yellow-haired self-cultivator spoke up with a frown, ”Please help us. You guys are strong. If we took them on, all that would remain of us will be a pile of bones.”

Black Puppy reached out its paw to send the yellow-haired self-cultivator flying with a smack and said, ”Why would we want to save you? Be self-reliant and save yourselves! Those black hell ants are incredibly strong, you’d better get the hell out of here fast!”

Black Puppy looked down on self-cultivators who were gluttonous, lazy, and not willing to put in the hard work to become stronger. These self-cultivators did not show up to help when Qingfeng Li was in danger, so it was only natural that Black Puppy did not want to help them either.

Black Puppy’s ferociousness had scared the other self-cultivators. Some of them even started crying.

The self-cultivators knew that without Qingfeng Li and Black Puppy’s protection, it was certain that they would be killed by the black hell ants.

Death was a terrifying thing. Some of these gutless self-cultivators were so afraid of dying and being eaten by black hell ants that they actually started crying. Qingfeng Li watched in disdainful silence.

The world of self-cultivators had always favored the fittest. That was the law. If one was weak and had made the choice to come to such place, it was only natural for one to get killed.

A short-haired female self-cultivator walked forward and asked, ”Qingfeng Li, do you remember me? We know each other. Can you please help us out?”

Looking closely at this female self-cultivator and recalling carefully, Qingfeng Li finally remembered.

When fighting for the flower of hell on the second level of hell, Qingfeng Li had rescued this female self-cultivator once and had helped her out multiple times. Also, he heard this female self-cultivator say that she secretly admired and idolized him.

Qingfeng Li was definitely willing to save a fan of his own. That was simply a proper way for an idol to act.

”What is your name?” Qingfeng Li smiled faintly as he asked the short-haired female self-cultivator.

A shade of scarlet appeared on the pretty face of the short-haired self-cultivator. She seemed a little shy and embarrassed.

This was the first time she was standing so close to her idol, and his question made her heart start beating rapidly. Indeed, her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out from her chest.

”My name is Lili. Thank you very much for saving me last time. Can you help us out one more time? We are no match for the black hell ants.” The short-haired female self-cultivator asked longingly. She was eagerly hoping that Qingfeng Li would agree to it.

The other self-cultivators all looked to Qingfeng Li, waiting for his response.

They all knew that if Qingfeng Li agreed, then their lives would be spared; and if he disagreed, then they would become a pile of white bones scattered in hell after they had been killed by the black hell ants.

At this time, Black Puppy walked over and reminded Qingfeng Li, ”There are so many that we have to protect already, the Wolf Fang Team, Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, etc. If we also have to protect those self-cultivators, we will get distracted as we will waste a lot of our vital essence.”

Qingfeng Li gave Black Puppy a glance. He knew that Black Puppy was right. These black hell ants were immensely powerful, and it would take a lot of effort for him to take them out. Along with a bunch of people they already had to protect, their hands were pretty tied.

However, Qingfeng Li could not bring himself to reject the short-haired female self-cultivator. She was obviously a fan of his, and he did not want to disappoint his admirers or to let them get hurt .

Qingfeng Li thought of the ancient era. Back then, it was because the self-cultivators on Earth were divided and uncoordinated that the self-cultivators from other planets were able to intrude and take many, many lives on Earth.

It was a devastating disaster for Earth. Countless saints, immortals and self-cultivators were slaughtered, even the lives of children were not spared. It was a tragic past that everyone on Earth should remember.

A hint of pain appeared in Qingfeng Li’s eyes. He knew that he could not let history repeat itself. All of these self-cultivators before him were from Earth, just like him, and they were the last self-cultivators of Earth. Qingfeng Li decided to save them.

With determination in his eyes, Qingfeng Li said, ”Don’t worry, Lili. I will save you all.”

Upon hearing Qingfeng Li’s words, Lili’s pretty face turned red with excitement and joy. She was looking at Qingfeng Li as if she was looking at the greatest hero in the world.

Likewise, the other self-cultivators were looking to Qingfeng Li with respect.

Before, they feared Qingfeng Li because they thought he was a devil as he had even slaughtered those from Sword-Emperor Sect. But now they were discovering the good in him.

Qingfeng Li stood up for them now that they were in danger and had prepared to fight the ferocious black hell ants in order to save their lives.

A swarm of the black hell ants were already right in front of them. It looked like there was a frightening tide of at least ten thousand of them.

A dark and cold aura was being exuded from the black hell ants. It was a powerful, bloodthirsty, callous and emotionless aura.

Qingfeng Li knew that there was no time to waste. He must exterminate these black hell ants as soon as possible and get everyone out of here.

Moreover, the Taotie and the Qiongqi were still battling where Qingfeng Li left them. If they realized that Qingfeng Li had escaped and started coming after him again, there would be no way to leave this place then.

”Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, don’t hold back and fight them with full force now.” Qingfeng Li said to Black Puppy and the others.

Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake nodded in response. They knew that it was no time to slack off. Now that Qingfeng Li had decided to save everyone there, the only way out for all of them was to take out all the black hell ants with full force.

With a flip of his wrist, Qingfeng Li took out the Fire Emperor Sword. It was an emperor level sword that could emit flames, containing enormous power.

”Fire Mountain.” Qingfeng Li shouted aloud as he used the first sword of the Fire Emperor Sword technique at once.

The great fire elemental vital essence combined with the talisman scripture battle array and became a humongous fire mountain. The mountain was a few thousand meters tall. With unconquerable power, it ruthlessly dashed towards the black hell ants.

Freh, Freh, Freh!

The black hell ants were surprisingly intelligent. Sensing the powerfulness of the fire mountain that was in the air, they began scattering away to the sides.

Even though these black hell ants had intelligence and tried to flee, the fire mountain was at its full speed and crashed onto the ground in no time.

The scorching temperature of the flames was as high as lava, burning the bodies of the ants to coals and causing crackling sounds and a pungent smell.

With that first sword strike, Qingfeng Li had killed off more than three hundred black hell ants. It provided everyone around him a confidence boost.
