Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

In the Teng Snake Clan territory of the Demon Race, within the sacred hall, the Teng Snake Demon Lord's face was gloomy.

He had imagined many ways Ling Wuse could grant Jun Wuxie the identity of a Demon Race member, but he never expected Ling Wuse to do it this way, betrothing his daughter to Jun Wuxie.

Not only him, but everyone in the Teng Snake lineage was taken by surprise.

After all, Ling Wuse only had one child, a daughter, whom he and Nanli Jingwei treated as the apple of their eye, their most precious treasure.

As the Demon Lord of one of the two Demon Race lineages, Ling Wuse held a pivotal status and position, not only in the Eastern Realm but throughout the entire Canglan Ancient Star.

Ling Qingyu, as the Holy Maiden of the Demon Race, could be said to possess an extremely high status as a favored daughter of heaven.

Who was Jun Wuxie?

Although he had achieved great things in the Lower Realm and grown rapidly upon arriving in the Upper Realm, establishing a dynasty and standing out from the crowd, he already had many imperial consorts.

Now, the Dawn Dynasty was under attack from the Sacrificial Earth Dynasty, with the terrifying existence of Fallen Red Dust pushing from behind.

Too many forces wanted to take Jun Wuxie's life, and they were all major forces, some even eternal-level.

Under such circumstances, Jun Wuxie was destined not to go far; despite his current glory, his life would not last long. He would not be able to continue on this path and would eventually fall, meeting a tragic end.

Ling Wuse and Nanli Jingwei, they were actually betrothing Ling Qingyu to Jun Wuxie under these circumstances.

"Are Ling Wuse and Nanli Jingwei's brains filled with water?!"

The Teng Snake Demon Lord's face was extremely gloomy, as he thought of his son who had been killed by Jun Wuxie.

His son had been in love with Ling Qingyu and had been pursuing her all his life, but Ling Qingyu, being proud and aloof, had never given his son any response, never giving him a chance, always maintaining a distance.

If not for considering the superficial harmony between the two lineages, the Teng Snake Demon Lord had no doubt that Ling Qingyu would have directly shown his son a cold face.

His son, alas, a genius envied by the heavens, had gone to that desolate Lower Realm and actually fallen there, persecuted in public by that Lower Realm native, Jun Wuxie!

Now, before his son's great revenge was avenged, the murderer who killed his son was actually going to be engaged to the woman his son had loved and pursued in vain!

The Teng Snake Demon Lord trembled with anger!

Moreover, the pride of their clan who had awakened the Teng Snake ancestral blood seemed to have some interest in Ling Qingyu as well.

In recent years, they had not taken action against Ling Qingyu, partly because it was difficult to find an opportunity, and partly because of that pride of the clan, fearing that killing Ling Qingyu would displease him.

After all, in this great era, they might still have to rely on that pride of the clan who had awakened the ancestral blood in the future; the Teng Snake clan's future depended on him.

"Demon Lord, since the Ling family has chosen this path, it seems difficult for us to interfere, otherwise, if Jun Wuxie loses his qualification to enter Qinglong Gorge, we won't even have a chance to kill him."

"Yes, Demon Lord, please calm down. This is just an engagement, not a marriage. As long as we can kill Jun Wuxie in the Qinglong Gorge Secret Realm, the marriage will be dissolved. Ling Wuse can't possibly let his daughter marry a dead man, right?"

...

Hearing these words from the high-level officials, the Teng Snake Demon Lord's expression softened a bit.

What they said made sense; it was not a marriage, only an engagement. The relationship between Jun Wuxie and Ling Qingyu could only be considered that of a fiancé and fiancée.

Once Jun Wuxie died in the Qinglong Gorge Secret Realm, this marriage would be nullified, and as long as the ancestral blood awakener in the clan didn't mind, he could still marry Ling Qingyu in the future.

Ling Qingyu's talent was astonishing, and her aptitude for growth was extremely high. If the ancestral blood awakener could marry Ling Qingyu in the future, it would not only be a great help to the Teng Snake lineage but might also be able to subdue the Ling family.

As for his son's love for Ling Qingyu, the person was already gone, and he couldn't change anything. Satisfying the ancestral blood awakener was the wisest choice.

Just as he was thinking this, a young man with a cold expression and piercing eyes entered the hall.

"Teng Shen! Why are you here?"

The Teng Snake Demon Lord and the high-level officials all changed their expressions slightly.

These days, Teng Shen had been in seclusion. When they received the news that Ling Qingyu was going to be engaged to Jun Wuxie, their first reaction was to warn the clan members not to discuss it, and absolutely not to let it reach Teng Shen's ears.

Unexpectedly, Teng Shen still knew about it, otherwise, he wouldn't have come here suddenly.

"Such a big thing, and you actually hid it from me!"

Teng Shen's posture was very high, and even when facing the Demon Lord, he maintained his arrogance.

"This matter is already a foregone conclusion, telling you would only increase your troubles."

The Teng Snake Demon Lord said this.

"I want to participate in the Ranking Competition."

Teng Shen's tone was not very激烈, but rather calm, and his face was full of coldness as he spoke.

The Teng Snake Demon Lord and the high-level officials all changed their expressions upon hearing this.

"No, this matter cannot be agreed to. Now, all forces only know that our Teng Snake clan has a pride of heaven who has awakened the ancestral blood, but they don't know your identity, and they don't understand the real situation. In this great era, it is an advantage for you!"

The Teng Snake Demon Lord refused directly without even thinking about it.

"Yes, Teng Shen, you must not act impulsively. Now is not the time for you to show your edge. You only need to wait to enter Qinglong Gorge to obtain opportunities. There will be someone to deal with Jun Wuxie in the Ranking Competition."

"We know you are unhappy and want to take Jun Wuxie's life, but it is very difficult to kill him in the Ranking Competition, after all, there is the Ling family lineage and that great talisman master protecting him. When you enter the Qinglong Gorge Secret Realm, it will not be too late to kill him, that will be the best time, one without the Ling family protecting him, and two without that mysterious great talisman master protecting him."

...

The Teng Snake Demon Lord and the Teng Snake clan's high-level officials all advised him, and Teng Shen's expression was uncertain.

He knew that his desire to participate in the Ranking Competition would not be allowed.

Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed not appropriate to expose his strength at the moment.

"Jun Wuxie, the world says he is a legendary figure, I wonder what it feels like to kill such a legendary figure. When we get to the Secret Realm, I will use him as a test of my blade!"

Teng Shen said this, he had absolute confidence in himself. As he spoke, a special "momentum" was released, causing the Teng Snake Demon Lord and the high-level officials to shrink their pupils violently, and then a look of shock appeared on their faces.

"Teng Shen, your Divine Forbidden aura..."

"Could it be that you have entered the Ten Directions Mythology realm?"

The Teng Snake Demon Lord stood up abruptly, trembling with excitement, and a piercing light burst out from the diamond-shaped pupils separated by vertical lines.

"That's right."

Teng Shen raised his head and raised the corners of his mouth, "What is the Ten Directions Mythology realm! My ancestral blood is getting closer and closer to the pure-blooded Teng Snake bloodline. The Ten Directions Mythology is just the beginning. My future achievements will exceed the imagination of the world! The power of the Teng Snake will reappear in the world, oppressing the starry sky. At that time, all races will have to crawl at the feet of my Teng Snake lineage, exist by my breath, and live according to my will!"

"Good! Good, hahaha!"

"It seems that unifying the Demon Race and integrating the Demon Race's power is just around the corner. In this greatest prosperous age of prophecy, my Teng Snake clan will surely lead the Demon Race to dominate the sky and oppress all races!"

The Teng Snake Demon Lord and the Teng Snake clan's high-level officials were all very excited and full of yearning for the future, and their minds had already constructed a picture of the Teng Snake clan oppressing the starry sky, dominating the universe, and becoming the center of supreme power.

They knew very well what the Ten Directions Mythology meant!

Since ancient times, the legendary eternal giants, the invincible existences, were in the Ten Directions Mythology realm!

It meant that even if Teng Shen's aptitude for growth no longer improved, he would be an eternal giant in the future.

The most important thing was that Teng Shen was only in the Holy Emperor realm and had such heaven-defying growth. How could it be possible not to improve his growth rate in the later realms!

He was very likely to become the existence with the highest aptitude for growth in the universe since ancient times, and when he became an eternal giant, it would be shocking and brilliant, the strongest in ancient times!

...

At the same time, in the largest ancient city in the Eastern Realm, inside a luxurious mansion, Young Master Yu learned that Jun Wuxie was going to be engaged to the Holy Maiden of the Demon Race. He was originally half-lying down, enjoying the service of several maids, but he suddenly pushed the maids away, and a terrifying cold light burst out in his eyes!

Several maids screamed and were thrown out, fell to the ground, immediately got up, knelt down and shivered, not daring to breathe.

"Bastard!"

Young Master Yu picked up the teacup next to him and smashed it to pieces, "Canglan Ancient Star, a woman like the Holy Maiden of the Demon Race, who is on the Starry Sky Beauty List, should have been the prey of my Fallen Red Dust, but now she is going to fall into the hands of that Jun Wuxie!"

He was in a very bad mood now.

In his opinion, all the beautiful women in the world should be the cauldrons of Fallen Red Dust.

Now, a cauldron that belonged to Fallen Red Dust was actually taken down by his opponent, and he could not restrain the anger in his heart.

"Young Master, please calm down. It's just an engagement. As far as your subordinates know, there are many people on this Canglan Ancient Star who admire the Holy Maiden of the Demon Race, including the Kings of Heaven's Pride from those Dominator Forces. This time, he can be considered to have offended the public. He will definitely be besieged by everyone in the Qinglong Gorge Secret Realm. The formation detection function of Qinglong Gorge is extremely strong, so that talisman master cannot secretly follow him into the Secret Realm, which means that in the Secret Realm, he can only rely on his own strength, and can no longer rely on the powerful talisman master. There is almost no hope of him coming out alive!"

A Red Dust Desire Envoy said this. Although he was a powerhouse in the Holy Ancestor Realm, he was respectful in front of Young Master Yu in the Holy Emperor Realm.

"Is that so?"

Young Master Yu's anger subsided a little, and he said coldly, "Don't be too idealistic. If Jun Wuxie was so easy to kill, could he have lived to this day? This person's luck is prosperous, and it is difficult to kill him just by this point. Besides, the Kings of Heaven's Pride of the Dominator Forces are different from him. Unless he can be introduced into a well-designed situation, and attacked by a group, he can be killed by the advantage of numbers, but it is not easy to do this, and the Secret Realm Qinglong Gorge Secret Realm has great restrictions on cultivators, but the space is very vast."

"Young Master is right. Do you want to remind those Dominator Forces?"

The Red Dust Desire Envoy made a suggestion.

"Why remind me? This young master only wants to destroy the Dawn Dynasty now. Jun Wuxie going to Azure Dragon Gorge is a good opportunity to let him engage in internal strife with the prodigies of various forces inside. Even if he comes out alive, when the great era arrives and our Eternal Realm experts descend upon the Canglan Ancient Star, we will no longer fear the interference of the Heavenly Dao Academy. At that time, this young master will personally kill him. Wouldn't that be delightful?"

"Young Master is wise!"

Hong Chenyu quickly flattered him.

...

The news of Jun Wuxie and Ling Qingyu's upcoming engagement ceremony stirred up many people.

In many Dominator-level forces of the Eastern Territory, the Kings among the prodigies felt their blood rush to their heads, gnashing their teeth.

More than a decade ago, many from the Dominator-level forces went to the Ling family of the demon race to propose marriage, but all ended in failure.

Those who admired Ling Qingyu, having sought her for many years without success, suffered a huge blow today and found it difficult to accept.

Jun Wuxie, however, did not know that he had caused "public outrage" this time. He was only getting engaged to Ling Qingyu. If the world knew that he was a personal disciple of Mu Ciyin, had lived in the Bingxin Pavilion for some time, and was so close to Mu Ciyin, it would be like stirring up a hornet's nest, making enemies throughout the starry skies.

Jealousy is a terrible emotion and psychology, and most people easily generate it in their hearts. Only a few can restrain it well.

Once jealousy cannot be restrained, this emotion will be transformed into hatred, thereby causing strife, warfare, and even endless conflict.
