The villain is utterly immoral; with a dragon charging right in his face, how could he possibly lose

"Dong Fei, you're asking for it..."

Ye Hao descended like a divine warrior, his supreme bone phenomenon enveloping the capital, his voice domineering and cold, his power overwhelming.

But Gu Qing scoffed at what he heard, watching Ye Hao's display of power in front of everyone with a leisurely expression.

"Auntie, are you okay?"

Ye Hao scanned the entire Xiliang Prefecture with his divine sense and found no survivors.

What exactly is going on?

Ye Hao looked at Gu Qing and Ji Ning, his expression suddenly turning cold, revealing his killing intent.

If either of them dares to harm Bai Suying, he will kill them at all costs.

"Flying Witch, did you kill Dong Fei?"

The soldiers, servants, and guests of the Xiliang mansion were all wiped out by a single thought of a Venerable Realm expert, and their corpses still retained the supreme Daoist techniques.

The powerful figures who rushed over to watch also looked at Ji Ning with curiosity.

At the same time, Ye Hao felt a chill run down his spine. He called Ji Ning a witch and even showed murderous intent. He was sure that Ji Ning would slap him to death.

"Kill him..." the powerful member of the royal family shouted excitedly in his heart.

Once Ye Hao dies, half of the crisis for the Divine Phoenix Empire will be resolved.

"Hao'er, you must not be rude to your senior!"

Bai Suying instantly snapped out of her shock at the sacred artifact, and her face turned pale upon hearing Ye Hao's words.

She looked at Gu Qing with pleading eyes, and Gu Qing gave her a reassuring look and whispered a message: "Use Ye Hao a little."

Ji Ning stood silently behind Gu Qing, ready to act.

If Ye Hao dared to let the saint beside him make a move, she would immediately unleash the sacred artifact and escape with Gu Qing.

"That's right, we did it. That traitor Dong disrespected my friend and has been executed."

Gu Qing nodded and said this.

Seeing the murderous intent in Ye Hao's eyes, Gu Qing sneered inwardly.

It seems Ye Hao has decided to risk everything for his beloved and overthrow the capital.

Unfortunately, Ye Hao ran into a snub; the consequence of provoking him was that there were no consequences.

Ye Hao likes to hide his trump cards, so let him hide them to his heart's content.

When He Ni returns from her tribulation, it will be his death day.

Thinking it over, Gu Qing said solemnly.

"Let me introduce you all. The Flying Witch has agreed to join my Star God Temple and will be an elder of my Star God Temple from now on."

These words immediately drew congratulations from everyone, including Bai Wuyai, who rushed over in a hurry, and his expression was full of envy.

That's the Starry Sky Temple! As long as you join, you'll have the chance to cultivate divine techniques, unparalleled supernatural powers, and even the path to immortality. Who wouldn't want to join?

Seeing Gu Qing surrounded by a crowd, Ye Hao's expression turned ugly.

He couldn't accept it, and everyone's attention was drawn to Gu Qing.

I felt like I was just a foil to Gu Qing.

He arrived with boundless rage, only to find his punch landed on cotton, leaving him utterly frustrated.

What's even more infuriating is that Gu Qing and Bai Suying are friends, so he didn't even have a chance to reveal his hand.

"Hao'er, why did you come here? You should leave quickly, the capital city is not a place for you."

Bai Suying anxiously sent him a telepathic message.

Ye Hao is the biggest rebel in the Divine Phoenix Empire, and the royal family wants to get rid of him as soon as possible. It would be too dangerous for him to appear in the capital.

"Don't worry, Auntie, I know what I'm doing."

"Auntie, is he really your friend? Did he coerce you?"

Ye Hao let out a long sigh and asked, unwilling to give up.

He always felt that Gu Qing was not a good person and harbored ill intentions towards his aunt.

"That's not true. He's a true disciple of the Star God Temple. Why would he threaten me?" Bai Suying's heart tightened, afraid that Ye Hao would see through her. She deliberately smiled amicably at Gu Qing.

Gu Qing returned the smile.

To outsiders, the two appeared to be exchanging glances and flirting.

No wonder Ji Ning didn't mind Ye Hao's offense; it turns out they'd hooked up.

This infuriated the onlookers, who were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Bai Suying is the Queen Mother of their Divine Phoenix Empire, the goddess in the hearts of countless men. How could she be abducted by an outsider?

The royal family members pretended not to see anything, keeping their eyes down and their minds at ease, some even wishing they could disappear into the ground.

What a shame and humiliation.

The empress was having an affair with someone, and they didn't dare utter a sound.

Bai Wuyai stroked his beautiful beard, looking thoughtfully at his daughter.

"Did he offer any bribes?"

Ye Hao was so angry he felt like he was going to vomit blood. A familiar feeling of anger and frustration welled up in his heart, the feeling of being cheated on in his past life.

"What are you talking nonsense about?"

Bai Suying felt guilty and angrily rebuked him telepathically.

In her mind, Ye Hao only had a few Venerable Realm experts and a Sacred Artifact by his side, so he couldn't defeat Gu Qing.

If her affair with Gu Qing is discovered, and Ye Hao, in a fit of anger, offends Gu Qing again, then all her sacrifices will have been in vain.

Ye Hao gritted his teeth, for the first time disbelieving his aunt's words.

Bai Suying has always been noble and elegant, a model of virtue for the nation, and never shows any courtesy to strangers.

There must be a reason why the two were exchanging glances.

[Detected that Ye Hao harbors malice towards the host and is plundering the host's luck. Triggered Super Anti-Armor, plundering three thousand units of Ye Hao's luck in return.]

Hearing the system's long-absent announcement, Gu Qing was taken aback and asked, "Didn't he not devour any luck or destiny?"

He possesses a golden dragon of fortune, which constantly assists him in absorbing the fortune of others, his clan's fortune, and his nation's fortune. His rapid cultivation is entirely due to using this fortune to enhance his cultivation level.

"I see..." Gu Qing nodded in understanding.

Ye Hao suddenly frowned, feeling something leaving his body, like his luck...

He often plundered other people's luck, so he was extremely sensitive to luck. He immediately opened the system to check and found that he was indeed missing three thousand units of luck.

Ye Hao was filled with shock and quickly asked the system, but unfortunately the system was an idiot and could not answer any of his questions. It could only issue tasks and reward treasures.

"You traitorous scoundrel, how dare you!"

After Gu Qing left, the royal family members were in a difficult position.

The biggest rebel king is here; they can't pretend they didn't see him.

But what can they use to deal with Ye Hao?

Their ancestors were defeated even with sacred artifacts.

Bai Suying, with her gentle and intelligent nature, saw the royal family's predicament and immediately found a reason to take Ye Hao away.

Back at her residence, she scolded, "Hao'er, you are now the commander-in-chief of the three armies. How can you leave the military camp at will? Furthermore, how could you so recklessly offend the Star God Temple?"

That's what she wanted to say about Ye Hao: he doesn't stay in the military camp and often runs around, showing no responsibility of a commander.

If anything goes wrong, the million-strong army will collapse in an instant.

"Auntie, I was just worried about your safety."

"You can't come in person, you can send your strongest warriors."

"Alright, you can go now." Bai Wuyai interrupted his daughter, flicked his sleeve, and a gust of wind swept him out of the city.

He loathed Ye Zhentian so much that he also treated Ye Hao with the same disdain.

Seeing Ye Hao made him feel annoyed.

"Father..."

"Ok?"

Bai Wuyai's phoenix eyes widened, and the latter immediately fell silent, speechless.

"Hmph, neither father nor son are good people. If you dare to associate with them again, don't blame your father for being ruthless."

Bai Wuyai snorted coldly.

He dislikes a person full of scheming and plotting the most.

When Bai Susu insisted on marrying Ye Zhentian and became pregnant before marriage, he severed his father-daughter relationship with her.

After Bai Susu died for Ye Zhentian, he only harbored resentment towards Ye Zhentian and never spoke to him again.

Even when Ye Hao's bones were dug out, he didn't even glance at them, leaving Ye Hao to fend for himself.

If Bai Suying hadn't threatened to kill herself, he would never have helped Ye Hao in the slightest.

"I know, Father."

Bai Suying felt bitter. Although she didn't like Ye Zhentian either, Ye Hao was her sister's only son.

"Ugh!"

Seeing this, Bai Wuyai sighed and shook his head, knowing that his daughter still couldn't let go of Ye Hao.

He didn't press further, but instead asked, "What's that young man's name? I think he's only about twenty years old, yet he already has the cultivation of the Void Dao Realm. He's truly extraordinary."

"His name is Gu Qing. He is a true disciple of the goddess of the Starry Sky Temple and shares the same lineage as Luo Li."

Bai Suying was always filial, so she immediately poured a bowl of wine for her father and said slowly.

"How do you know so much? Could it be that he has taken a liking to you?" Bai Wuyai's expression showed barely suppressed joy.

The goddess's true disciple—that's an incredibly high status. She might very well take charge of the Star God Temple in the future.

"Um...um..."

Bai Suying was filled with shame and indignation. She covered her face with her sleeve, feeling utterly humiliated to be forced by a mere boy.

But she couldn't ignore her father's words.

"Good, good... Just as I expected!"

Bai Wuyai was overjoyed and gulped down three large bowls of wine in a row, finally feeling a huge weight lifted from his heart.

His biggest worry in life was Bai Suying's marriage.

If it weren't for begging the royal family for a holy medicine to save him, Bai Suying wouldn't have entered the palace and lived as a widow for decades.

Now, the clouds have finally parted and the moon is shining brightly.

By following Gu Qing, Bai Suying can venture into a wider world, and her future will be bright.

"Father, this is the betrothal gift he gave. Please accept it."

Bai Suying took out a storage ring containing a sacred bell artifact.

Bai Wuyai swept his divine sense across the area, first stunned, then overjoyed.

A sacred artifact, it's actually a sacred artifact.

With this sacred artifact, he has a chance to break through to the level of a saint in this lifetime.

"As expected of the goddess's true disciple, she can even use sacred artifacts as betrothal gifts."

"Yingying, it seems he truly loves you. Don't fail to cherish him."

After his initial joy, he spoke earnestly.

“My daughter knows.”

Bai Suying felt the same way.

After all, they've already given away the sacred artifact; it can't just be something she marries for fun, right?

"Well, that's good if you know."

"By the way, is he married? Does he have a Daoist partner?" Bai Wuyai then asked.

"This... even my daughter doesn't know."

Whether Gu Qing is married or has a Daoist partner, she doesn't know, but he definitely has quite a few women, otherwise he wouldn't be so adept at coercing and seducing married women.

But saying such things wouldn't help Bai Wuyai; it would only cause him unnecessary worry.

"It's probably impossible for someone so young to have such cultivation. This is good."

Bai Wuyai muttered something to himself, then frowned as if remembering something.

"Father, what's wrong?"

"It's alright, go ahead and have a good talk with him. You don't need to worry about worldly rules and gossip."

Bai Wuyai flicked his sleeves, exuding an aura of dominance.

Bai Suying didn't want to leave; she went home to avoid Gu Qing.

But her father had spoken, and she had no choice but to leave.

After everyone left, Bai Wuyai muttered, "That young lad is so impetuous and doesn't understand matters between men and women. It would be bad if he made a fool of himself."

"Master, what do you mean by this?" The beautiful woman, who had been silent all along, asked in confusion upon hearing this.

Men are supposed to be naturally knowledgeable about sex, right? Who would be so ignorant as to make such a fool of themselves?

"Find a virtuous courtesan and send her to Yingying, so that she can teach her future husband about bedroom matters."

Bai Wuyai stroked his beautiful beard and said this.

Hot-blooded young men are prone to impulsiveness.

His daughter has a special constitution; she's a precious daughter, and it would be bad if she got hurt. Besides, it's good to have someone take care of her.

"This...isn't necessary?"

The beautiful woman said hesitantly.

Although noble ladies and princesses of the royal family all had maids to serve their husbands and familiarize them with sexual matters.

But Bai Suying isn't a young lady from a respectable family who hasn't yet married, so why would she need a maidservant?

"Hmph, what do you know, you old woman? Just go if I tell you to."

Bai Wuyai's eyes were sharp as knives, and coupled with his thick, black beard, he looked absolutely domineering and imposing.

"Yes, sir, I will take care of it right away."

The beautiful woman turned pale, hurriedly got up, and rushed off to find the courtesan.
