Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world

"What your informants saw was only what I wanted you to see," Lu Lingxi said calmly, a hint of mockery in her voice. "As for the Love-Thread Corroding Gu Pill... you think that low-grade thing can harm him?"

"boom!"

Nalan Rongshang's mind went blank. He finally realized that the relapse of the demonic poison and his incurable death were all fake. It was a trap, a complete trap set for him. He thought he had outsmarted the enemy, but he had walked step by step into the trap that the other party had carefully laid.

"Kill them! Kill them all!" Nalan Rongshang roared madly, directing the guards who followed him into the hall to rush towards Nalan Rongzhi.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, countless elite demon palace soldiers clad in heavy armor and wielding sharp blades suddenly emerged from all around the hall. These elite soldiers were all powerful and had cold eyes. In an instant, they surrounded Nalan Rongshang and his personal guards, blocking all escape routes. At the same time, deafening battle cries came from outside the demon palace. Clearly, his army was also surrounded!

Xi Ling Qianluo appeared at the entrance of the main hall at some point. The "captives" beside her were gone, replaced by a group of murderous Xi Ling clan experts. She looked at Nalan Rongshang, whose face was ashen inside the hall, her eyes filled with pleasure and coldness.

“Nalan Rongshang, your death is near,” Xiling Qianluo said coldly.

It's over! Everything is over! Nalan Rongshang looked at the dark mass of enemies around him, and at the cold eyes of the couple before the throne. His heart was filled with despair. He knew that he had lost, and lost miserably!

"Nalan Rongzhi, Lu Lingxi Yao!" Nalan Rongshang's eyes flashed with a crazed bloodlust. "Since I can't live, I'll take someone down with me. Even if I die, I'll make you pay the price!"

He suddenly ignited all his demonic energy, his body becoming like a powder keg about to explode, radiating a destructive aura. He charged towards Nalan Rongzhi and Lu Lingxi Yao without regard for anything else, wanting to self-destruct and perish together with them!

"Watch out!" Xiling Qianluo exclaimed.

Nalan Rongzhi's eyes narrowed, and he was about to make a move, but Lu Lingxi Yao was one step ahead of him. Her beautiful eyes flashed with a cold light, and with a light wave of her hand, an invisible barrier instantly appeared in front of Nalan Rongshang. At the same time, several silver chains containing the power of spatial laws appeared out of thin air and instantly wrapped around Nalan Rongshang's limbs and body!

"Spatial Imprisonment, Elemental Seal!"

Nalan Rongshang felt the space around him suddenly freeze. The rampaging demonic energy within his body seemed to be forcibly suppressed and frozen by an invisible force. He struggled with all his might, but found himself like a moth caught in a spider web, unable to move! The tendency to self-destruct was actually nipped in the bud!

"Want to die together with me? You're not qualified."

Lu Lingxi looked coldly at Nalan Rongshang, who was bound in mid-air, his face contorted with despair and resentment, her tone completely calm.

Nalan Rongzhi walked to her side, took her hand, and looked at the subdued Nalan Rongshang without any pity in his eyes.

"Take him away, cripple his cultivation, and cast him into the endless abyss, never to rise again!" Nalan Rongzhi delivered the final verdict.

"No—Nalan Rongzhi, you will die a horrible death, hehehehehehe--you better have someone keep an eye on me and not let me escape, otherwise I will not..." Nalan Rongshang let out a ferocious laugh, but before he could finish his harsh words, he was gagged by the demon guards and dragged away.

Just as things were settling down in Nine Nether City, a black figure, leading dozens of defeated soldiers, was rushing desperately toward the edge of the Demon Realm.

On her way to Jiuyou City, Lu Lingqingyue received news that Nalan Rongshang had been defeated and captured. She was shocked and angry, and at the same time felt a sense of fear. Fortunately, she had delayed her journey because she was dealing with some internal affairs of the Black Abyss and had not rushed into Jiuyou City with Nalan Rongshang. Otherwise, she would probably be the one captured now!

"Lu Lingxi, I'll remember this debt!" Lu Lingqingyue glanced back at the direction of Nine Nether City, her eyes filled with resentment and unwillingness. "We'll see!"

She dared not linger in the Demon Realm. Once Nalan Rongzhi had a free moment, she would likely be the first one he dealt with. She made a decisive move and quickly left the Demon Realm with her remaining subordinates.

The internal strife in the Demon Realm has finally come to an end. Nalan Rongzhi has thoroughly purged the traitors and consolidated his throne. The next step is to rebuild order and restore the Demon Realm to its former prosperity.

Nalan Rongzhi personally led an elite force to the wasteland city for the final cleanup and pacification. While clearing out Nalan Rongshang's lair, they made an unexpected discovery in the dungeon deep within the palace.

It was an extremely secluded cell, filled with restrictions. Inside the cell, a figure covered in wounds and barely breathing was huddled in a corner. From the remaining aura and some characteristics on his body, it could be determined that he was a demon!

Why is a demon imprisoned in the demon's dungeon?

Nalan Rongzhi ordered his men to break the seal and rescue the demon. After some treatment and questioning, the weak demon revealed a shocking piece of news in fits and starts.

His name is "Feng Xiao," a warrior of the Qingqiu Fox Clan in the Demon Realm. He says that the Demon Realm is currently experiencing an unprecedented catastrophe. The current Demon Emperor, Emperor Hong of the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan, was suddenly attacked by his general "Lie Tian," who joined forces with several tribes dissatisfied with the royal family. Lie Tian was ambushed, seriously injured, and captured. He then declared himself emperor and purged the tribes loyal to Emperor Hong. The entire Demon Realm has fallen into war and chaos!

Feng Xiao said that he had escaped from the demon realm at the risk of his life on the orders of the demon emperor before he was captured, and came to find the only bloodline of the demon emperor, the lost prince. He asked the prince to return to the demon realm as soon as possible, and with the help of the royal bloodline and the token, to gather the forces loyal to the royal family, quell the internal strife, and save the demon realm!

Demon Emperor... Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan... His Highness the Crown Prince...

As Nalan Rongzhi listened to this information, a figure instantly appeared in his mind—the one who usually seemed docile and harmless, yet occasionally cunning, possessing seven-colored nine tails, Lu Lingxi Yao's contracted spirit beast—the Nine-Tailed Fox!

He had always felt that the Nine-Tailed Fox had an extraordinary origin; its pure Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox bloodline was definitely not that of an ordinary demon beast. Could it be...?

Nalan Rongzhi had a guess in his mind. He immediately ordered people to appease the people of the wasteland city and then took Feng Xiao back to Jiuyou City.

Upon returning to Jiuyou City, Nalan Rongzhi immediately found Jiuwei, who was basking in the sun in the garden, leisurely wagging her tail, and Lu Lingxi Yao beside him.

When Feng Xiao saw the Nine-Tailed Fox's iconic seven-colored tail, he was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. Ignoring his injuries, he struggled to kneel down and said, "Your subordinate Feng Xiao greets Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

Nine-Tailed Fox: "???" He looked blankly at the unfamiliar demon who suddenly knelt in front of him, then looked at Nalan Rongzhi and Lu Lingxi Yao.

"Your Highness, don't you recognize your subordinate?" Feng Xiao said urgently. "The Demon Realm is in imminent danger! His Majesty the Demon Emperor has been imprisoned by that traitor Lie Tian, ​​and the entire Demon Realm is suffering terribly. His Majesty sent me to risk my life to find you. Please return to the realm immediately and take charge of the situation!"

Feng Xiao recounted in detail the changes that had occurred in the demon realm.

As Feng Xiao recounted his story, the bewilderment on Jiuwei's face gradually faded, replaced by shock, anger, sadness... a complex mix of emotions. His eyes, which always held a gentle smile, became incredibly sharp, and he exuded an indescribable majesty and... the aura of a king!

He finally remembered, and those blurry, sealed fragments of memory began to piece together... He was the son of the Demon Emperor Hong, the Crown Prince of the Demon Realm, Di Lin! As a child, due to palace intrigue, his mother risked her life to send him out of the Demon Realm, where he ended up in the mortal world. To protect himself and evade pursuit, he sealed most of his memories and powers, and later, by chance, he was contracted by Lu Lingxi Yao...

"Father...Mother..." Nine-Tailed Fox murmured, a look of pain flashing in her eyes.

Lu Lingxi and Nalan Rongzhi exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes. The Nine-Tailed Fox had such a distinguished background!

“Nine-Tailed Fox…” Lu Lingxi Yao gently patted his shoulder, feeling his body tremble.

Nine-Tailed Fox raised its head and looked at Lu Lingxi Yao, its eyes filled with determination: "Master, I'm sorry, I concealed my identity. Now, the demon realm is in trouble, and my father is imprisoned. I must go back!"

"Don't talk nonsense." Lu Lingxi smiled gently. "You are my partner who has risked her life for me. Your business is my business. Let's go to the Demon Realm together!"

“Master…” Nine-Tails’ eyes were filled with gratitude.

“Count me in,” Nalan Rongzhi said. “The internal strife in the Demon Realm has been quelled. Perfect timing, I also want to go and see what the so-called Demon Realm is like.”

Then she looked at Lu Lingxi Yao with gentle eyes, "Wherever you go, I will go."

Having decided to go to the Demon Realm, the three began preparations. Nalan Rongzhi temporarily entrusted all affairs of the Demon Realm to Xiling Qianluo. With her in charge, along with the elite forces of the Demon Palace, they would be able to handle any unexpected situation.

Lu Lingxi also gathered her contracted partners, including Youming and Anye, and informed them of the matter. They all expressed their willingness to go together.
