Immortal Emperor, you dare to steal the bride? Backhand dig your supreme bone

Within the Wind Empire of the First Heaven, a remote village.

Upon a beautiful lawn.

A sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, his face shaded by a straw hat, lounges with crossed legs, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, basking in the sun.

Nearby, several cows graze.

The village is called Qingyun Village, a veritable utopia.

Chu Ran, adopted since childhood, has always lived in the village, occasionally venturing to nearby towns to purchase daily necessities.

Today, he overheard news about the Eighth Heaven in the town.

“How impressive, if only I could become someone like Xu Fengqiu one day.”

Chu Ran muttered, his voice filled with longing.

“Thump—”

A cow collapsed to the ground.

Hearing the sound, Chu Ran immediately stood up and dashed over.

The old cow lay on the ground, eyes wide open, but its body remained motionless.

Only its eyes revealed a trace of cloudy light.

Within that light, was the figure of Chu Ran running towards it.

“Old friend…”

Chu Ran knelt beside the old cow, his face pressed against its face, gently stroking it.

Chu Ran's body trembled slightly, and a glimmer of crystal appeared in his eyes.

As if it were something he had foreseen.

“Old friend, thank you for your hard work all these years, rest well this time…” Chu Ran said softly.

Tears slowly welled up in the old cow's eyes.

The old cow had been tilling the land for the family since Chu Ran was a child.

It was even older than him.

It could be said that the old cow had accompanied Chu Ran's growth.

But the old cow was too old.

“Moo—”

The old cow used all its strength, as if saying goodbye to Chu Ran.

Then, it closed its eyes completely.

“Old friend… rest in peace.”

Chu Ran leaned against it, sobbing.

Under the setting sun, Chu Ran dug a large pit and buried the old cow.

He bowed deeply, then wiped away his tears and led the two remaining cows towards the village.

In the distance, Chu Ran saw the entire village engulfed in flames.

His pupils constricted.

“Father, Mother, Sister!”

Chu Ran released the cows and sprinted towards the village.

The peaceful and serene village had been massacred.

Corpses lay there, their eyes wide open in death.

Thump—

Chu Ran knelt there, clenching his fists tightly.

After a long while…

“Li Ming!”

Chu Ran raised his head, his eyes bloodshot.

A wisp of black light faintly emerged from his body.

His hair and clothes danced wildly.

At the same time, the wind and clouds churned above the void.

It seemed that some kind of power was awakening within him.

…

Xu Fengqiu was in a tavern in Tianyang City with Xiaoli, enjoying some food.

Xiaoli was in a particularly good mood.

She had been in the Xu family for so many years, and only occasionally had the chance to go out.

She never imagined that the young master would take her out to play.

Xiaoli secretly glanced at Xu Fengqiu, who was sipping wine in front of her.

She really felt that the young master had changed so much from before, as if he had become a different person.

“Ding… Xiaoli's affection for you +5, current affection: 20.”

“Ding… Xiaoli's affection for you has reached 20, reward: [Heaven-Defying Comprehension], [Myriad Poison Body].”

[Myriad Poison Body]: The supreme of poison, immune to all poisons.

Xu Fengqiu raised an eyebrow.

20 affection points for this level of reward?

He couldn't imagine what the reward would be for 80 affection points.

“Ding… Detecting a Child of Destiny.”

“Oh?”

There were quite a few Children of Destiny in this First Heaven.

Xu Fengqiu pondered inwardly.

Then, Xu Fengqiu investigated the newly appeared Child of Destiny.

[Child of Destiny]: Chu Ran

[Destiny Value]: 890010 (First-Order Child of Destiny)

[Age]: 18

[Bloodline]: Human Race

[Physique]: Heavenly Evil Body

[Realm]: Seventh-Order Divine Power Realm (Qi Refining Realm, Body Refining Realm, Enlightenment Realm, Divine Power Realm, Profound Heaven Realm, Profound King Realm, Law Realm, Domain Realm, Divine Sea Realm, Heavenly Venerate Realm, Divine Emperor Realm, Heavenly Dao Realm, each realm from first to tenth order, breaking the Heavenly Dao leads to Immortal Emperor.)

[Combat Power Score]: 77

[Introduction]: An ordinary villager from Qingyun Village in the Divine Wind Empire, adopted by the villagers eighteen years ago, with the power of the Ancient Slaughter God sealed within his body, and the power of the Slaughter God has initially awakened.

“Slaughter God…”

Xu Fengqiu pondered inwardly.

He did know about this.

During the Era of Gods in ancient times, the Slaughter God Lu Taibai rose to fame on the continent through slaughter.

The world called him the Slaughter God.

Later, the power of the Slaughter God Lu Taibai gradually became uncontrollable, and his will was corroded by the backlash of power.

During that time, the human world suffered greatly.

In the end, various powerful figures joined forces to obliterate him.

A generation of Slaughter God fell.

“Ding… You have triggered the task [Rise of the Slaughter God], task content: Subdue the future Slaughter God, and when the Slaughter God rises, you can obtain the ultimate reward, the target's Destiny Value increases, the host receives ten times the system value return, and at the same time, the host can receive rewards each time the target Child of Destiny's level is promoted.”

Xu Fengqiu stroked his chin.

Simply put, the system wanted him to take this future Slaughter God as his disciple and help him achieve the Great Dao.

The stronger he was, the stronger Xu Fengqiu would be.

“Well, that's good, it's boring to just trigger tasks to clear Destiny Value.”

Moreover, Xu Fengqiu really wanted to create a powerful force of his own.

The Xu family was strong, but not strong enough!

Xu Fengqiu looked at Xiaoli and said, "This Emperor has some things to do back in the Eighth Heaven, you can find a young man named Chu Ran from Qingyun Village here and bring him here."

“Xiaoli obeys.”

Xu Fengqiu then disappeared before her eyes.

“Boss, check out.”

Xiaoli placed a gold coin on the table.

“Oh my, Miss, this is too much.” The innkeeper hurriedly said, flattered.

“I want to inquire about something.” Xiaoli said.

Don't think that Xiaoli is cautious in front of Xu Fengqiu, but she is at least a maid of the Xu family.

Her cultivation has even reached the Divine Sea Realm.

Looking at this First Heaven, she is also a hegemonic existence.

“Please speak, please speak.”

“Where is Qingyun Village?” Xiaoli asked.

“Oh my, Miss, Qingyun Village is gone.”

Xiaoli frowned slightly: “Gone?”

“That's right, Qingyun Village was slaughtered yesterday, everyone in the village died, it seems… it seems that only a young man named Chu Ran is still alive.”

Hearing this, Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the person the young master was talking about was still alive.

“Do you know where Chu Ran is?”

The innkeeper said: “What a coincidence, he is in Tianyang City, captured by the City Lord of Tianyang City.”

“Why?”

The innkeeper said: “Last night, the eldest young master of the Li family in Tianyang City, Li Ming, was killed, and Chu Ran was at the scene at the time.”

“Thank you.”

Xiaoli then walked out.

“Come again often, Miss.”

…

At this moment.

Inside the City Lord's Mansion.

Chu Ran knelt there, with a talisman stuck on his body.

This was a Spirit Restriction Talisman.

It prevented warriors from mobilizing their spiritual power.

Surrounding him were a large number of soldiers from Tianyang City and onlookers.

Sitting in front was the City Lord of Tianyang City.

The City Lord's eyes narrowed slightly: “Chu Ran, you said you witnessed the whole process of Li Ming's murder last night, is that right?”

“Yes.” Chu Ran said indifferently.

“Hmph! Then this City Lord will ask you again, what did the murderer look like?”

“I didn't see the murderer's face.” Chu Ran said faintly.

Bang—

The City Lord smashed the table with his palm, then pointed at Chu Ran and roared:

“You孽障! This City Lord has investigated, Li Ming had a conflict with you a few days ago, you Chu Ran killed Li Ming last night, do you admit that this is what you did!”

“Hahaha—” Chu Ran laughed loudly, his eyes narrowed: “He Li Ming slaughtered my entire village without guilt, and I Chu Ran am guilty for killing him? City Lord, the people who slaughtered Qingyun Village were sent by you at Li Ming's request, is that right?”

The City Lord's eyes also narrowed: “That's right, according to this City Lord's investigation, the entire Qingyun Village is a孽障 of the evil Heavenly Ghost Sect, Qingyun Village is just a small stronghold of theirs, killing people of the evil sect is the duty of all warriors on the continent.”

Chu Ran looked at the City Lord, his eyes flashing with killing intent.

To condemn someone, one can always find a pretext!

The City Lord said lightly: “And you, you finally admit that you killed Li Ming.”

Chu Ran gritted his teeth: “When have I not admitted it?”

“When have you ever admitted it?”

Chu Ran's eyes were bloodshot, staring at the City Lord with endless killing intent, a bloodthirsty and ferocious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

“City Lord, guess why I have been emphasizing that I witnessed the whole process, but didn't see the murderer's face!”

The City Lord's brow furrowed suddenly.
