Chapter 78: Luo Shen's Decision

Feeling the threat of death, Ye Fan's face revealed an expression of extreme terror, and he hurriedly called out to Luo Shen within his ring in his heart.

Between life and death, he pinned all his hopes on Luo Shen.

"Die!"

Su Chen gave a cold, cruel smile, raised his right hand, and a fierce palm wind clawed toward Ye Fan's neck.

"Hum~"

Just at this moment, a white light flashed from the ring on Ye Fan's right hand.

A phantom of Luo Shen appeared before Ye Fan; she did not immediately move to block Su Chen, but instead formed seals with her hands.

In an instant, a teleportation array appeared behind Ye Fan.

"Run, Xiaofan! From now on, you can only rely on yourself!" Luo Shen urged.

Because this teleportation array required her to provide Spiritual Power for support, only Ye Fan could escape alone.

"Aunt Luo..."

Seeing this, Ye Fan was stunned at first, then his face filled with emotion; at this moment, Luo Shen had not abandoned him, but had stood out to help him escape.

"Go quickly!" Luo Shen urged again, her beautiful face filled with anxiety.

Ye Fan gritted his teeth, then turned and rushed into the teleportation array.

"You want to leave? Fine, but leave the ring behind!"

Seeing this, Su Chen sneered, raised his hand and flicked it, and a dagger shot toward the middle finger of Ye Fan's right hand.

"Ah~"

Ye Fan let out a miserable scream, and in his panic, he left behind his middle finger and darted into the teleportation array.

Swish!!!

The next second, Ye Fan's body vanished into thin air.

"Huh? He actually still managed to run; consider yourself lucky."

Su Chen frowned at the sight, though he was not worried that Ye Fan could escape, because more than half of the luck on the other party had already been snatched away by him; even if he developed further later on, it wouldn't be as fast as his own.

What's more, Ye Fan would ultimately never escape the palm of his hand.

His main target today was the great beauty before him—Luo Shen.

Su Chen walked forward slowly, picked up the severed middle finger from the ground, removed the ring from it, and placed it on his own middle finger.

Then, he turned to look at the Luo Shen phantom before him, a wicked smile appearing at the corner of his mouth as he licked his lips and said, "Luo Shen, come and meet your new master obediently!"

His tone was full of dominance and mockery.

The Luo Shen phantom's brows were tightly knit, her eyes flickering with a complex expression.

Seeing this, Su Chen continued to persuade her: "You have long since repaid the debt of Ye Fan saving your life; now, you need to start a new life. Do you really wish to vanish into thin air?"

Hearing this, Luo Shen fell into silence, a light of struggle flickering in her eyes.

It was true; over these years, she had helped Ye Fan with many things, and the debt of saving her life had long been repaid, but she still couldn't quite get past that hurdle in her heart.

Seeing her conflicted expression, Su Chen administered one final, potent dose of medicine.

He stared intently into Luo Shen's beautiful eyes and said word by word: "As long as you are willing to follow this young master, I promise to condense a physical body for you so you can return to the human world."

Hearing this, Luo Shen's delicate body trembled, and a look of intense longing appeared on her face.

"Is that true?" she couldn't help but ask.

After all, as an Ancient Great Expert, she only had a wisp of a remnant soul left in the human world and currently could only reside within this special ring.

But she longed to restore her body and truly return to the human world.

"Of course, a word from this young master is as good as a team of horses!"

Su Chen nodded without hesitation, promising with absolute certainty.

Hearing this, Luo Shen's gaze shifted, and finally, as if she had made a decision, she nodded.

"I agree, but there are conditions!" the Luo Shen phantom said.

"What conditions?"

"After my body is condensed, I can agree to become your woman, but you cannot force me to swear a Heavenly Demon Oath to control me," Luo Shen said solemnly.

"Fine, no problem."

Su Chen laughed heartily and agreed immediately.

Although Luo Shen was strong, she was, after all, only a wisp of a remnant soul, and now she had less than ten percent of her strength left; she couldn't stir up any trouble at all.

If the other party dared to play any tricks, he could simply kill her.

Furthermore, after tasting the power of his Yanyang Body, no woman would be willing to leave him.

That kind of feeling—in the Tianxuan Continent, only he possessed such ability.

He imagined that once Luo Shen tasted it once, she would surely be willing to submit beneath his crotch.

He disliked the method of controlling people through a Heavenly Demon Oath, so he had only used it on Zhao Hanshan once.

He had never used it on any of the women around him; after all, no one likes the feeling of having their fate controlled by others.

"You go into the ring first!"

"En."

With a "swish," a white light flashed, and Luo Shen's remnant soul dove into the ring.

Su Chen touched the ring on his middle finger with a look of triumph.

Hahaha... the number one beauty of the ancient era, Luo Shen, had finally become his.

At this moment, he was very eager to see what the Luo Shen with a condensed body would look like.

After all, in the original work, she was described as the number one beauty in the book, and one of the male leads, Ye Fan, had forcibly possessed her after helping her condense her body.

Su Chen was very much looking forward to this treasure, which was even more beautiful than Xiao Ruoyu.

——————

The Xiao Family was in complete chaos at this moment.

The moment the Eight Great Divine Camps of the Su Family appeared, the outcome of the war between the Xiao Family and the Su Family was already sealed.

"Head of the Family, let's go quickly!"

An Elder of the Xiao Family stood before Xiao Ming, persuading him with a pale face.

"We leave? Heh, where can we go? The vast Donghua Continent is covered in Su Family eyes and ears everywhere; how can we escape?"

Xiao Ming muttered in a tone of utter decadence.

The Xiao Family's centuries of foundation had been destroyed in a single day.

And the culprit who caused all of this was none other than Su Chen.

This detestable fellow had even killed his only son, Xiao Tiancheng; he and he were irreconcilable enemies.

But what could he do now?

Even the Eight Great Divine Camps could not be dealt with; what could he use to take revenge?

Xiao Ming clenched his fists tightly and roared through gritted teeth: "Bring Xiao Hanshan here; I want to kill him with my own hands!"

It was all this old immortal's fault; if he had obediently passed the position of Young Master to his son, none of these things would have happened later.

The Su Family had not yet attacked, so he would kill this old immortal first; that way, he would not be lonely on the road to the Yellow Springs.

"Yes!"

That Elder received the order and left.

Soon, Xiao Hanshan was brought here.

He was covered in blood and riddled with wounds, already on the verge of death.

Clearly, he had been subjected to inhuman treatment, and his entire spirit and vitality had decayed to the extreme.

He kept his head lowered, repeating over and over: "Kill me. Kill me."

Xiao Hanshan only had two thoughts in his mind now, and that was to beg for death.

"Hahaha, Big Brother, you have such a day too!"

Looking at the miserable Xiao Hanshan, Xiao Ming laughed loudly, his face full of smugness.

For so many years, he had been suppressed by Xiao Hanshan; now, seeing Xiao Hanshan in this state, he felt incomparably gratified.

"Big Brother, since you want to die so much, let's go together!"

Saying this, Xiao Ming picked up two wine cups from the table nearby, filled them with wine, and handed them to Xiao Hanshan.

"Drink, after we finish, we brothers will head out on the road together," Xiao Ming smiled with a ferocious expression.

"Bang~"

Just at this moment, the wine cup in Xiao Hanshan's hand was struck to the ground by a Flying Sword.

Immediately after, Xiao Ruoyu appeared before Xiao Hanshan.

"Father, what has happened to you?"

Upon seeing Xiao Hanshan's miserable state, Xiao Ruoyu's pretty face turned deathly pale, and she could not help but exclaim.

"Ruoyu."

Xiao Hanshan struggled to open his swollen eyes, and seeing his daughter appear suddenly, his eyes widened a bit as he spat out a sentence.

Seeing this, Xiao Ruoyu roared in anger: "Who did this? I will definitely make him pay the price!"

"Big Brother, you have raised a good daughter!"

Xiao Ming looked at Su Chen, who was slowly walking in with a group of Su Family experts, a trace of jealousy and mockery appearing in his eyes.

He believed that Xiao Ruoyu had used her body to seduce Su Chen, causing him to help her pacify the Xiao Family.

He felt ashamed of such underhanded methods.

Yet he had never thought about how shameful it was for him to cuckold his own brother, commit adultery with his sister-in-law, and cause her to conceive his own bastard!

"Second Uncle, my father was tortured into this state by you, right?"

Xiao Ruoyu stared coldly at Xiao Ming and asked, word by word.

"So what if it was?" Xiao Ming raised his chin, not afraid in the slightest.

"Then go to hell!"

As soon as Xiao Ming finished speaking, Xiao Ruoyu drew a dagger with her backhand and fiercely plunged it into Xiao Ming's chest.

Puchi~

Bright red blood sprayed out, splashing onto Xiao Ruoyu's snow-white dress, a shocking sight.

"Haha... good..."

Xiao Ming clutched his chest and looked at Xiao Ruoyu with a calm expression.

He knew that he would surely die today, but to die so swiftly, he was truly satisfied.

The generation's ambitious hero, Xiao Ming, thus came to an end.

The members of the Xiao Family were all silent, looking at Xiao Ruoyu, a sense of desolation welling up in their hearts.

Xiao Ruoyu held Xiao Hanshan tightly, her eyes moist.

Seeing her father tortured into this state by her own clansmen, she felt extremely guilty.

"Father, I'm sorry, it is your child who arrived late; from now on, I will never let anyone bully you again!"

Xiao Ruoyu held Xiao Hanshan's shoulders tightly, saying this while tears flowed endlessly.

She not only hated Xiao Ming and his son, but she also hated herself.

——————————

One night, ten days later.

The bright moon hung high, the clear sky stretched for ten thousand miles.

Su Family, Su Chen's study.

"Have you truly decided?"

Looking at the woman in the purple long dress before him, Su Chen could not help but swallow his saliva.

Standing before him was a woman of peerless beauty, her features exquisite and flawless, her skin delicate and smooth, as if it would break at a touch.

Her figure was graceful and lithe, her curves incredibly alluring, well-proportioned and shapely.

Most captivating of all were her long, straight, jade-like legs, which exuded a unique charm.

Especially with every frown and smile, she faintly radiated a seductive allure.

"Mm! I have already made up my mind; tonight, I shall become your woman."

Luo Shen nodded her head slightly and said in a soft voice.

This was a decision she had reached after careful deliberation.

This feeling of returning to the human world was truly wonderful.

Su Chen had spent a massive price, utilizing countless rare treasures, just to solidify her physical body and bring her back to life; this debt of gratitude was worth everything she had to repay it.

Through her understanding of Su Chen over these days, she discovered that Su Chen was not as unbearable as the outside rumors claimed, especially toward his own women, whom he cherished in every possible way.

She had survived for a million years and had finally manifested in the world; being intelligent, she naturally knew how to choose.
