This is absolutely terrifying!
Seeing Gu Qingfeng right before his eyes, the Heart Demon Lord was so frightened that his legs turned to jelly, trembling uncontrollably. With a swift leap, he darted hundreds of feet away.
He fled in panic, desperate to put as much distance as possible between himself and this devil.
However, after devouring the Heavenly Dao and two other Demon Lords, Gu Qingfeng was no longer the same as before. With just a single flash of movement, he effortlessly blocked the Heart Demon Lord’s escape.
The Heart Demon Lord’s face twisted into a snarl, like a beast cornered in a dead end.
"Gu Qingfeng! Must you really wipe us all out?"
"Keh keh keh... Dear family, what are you saying? This Emperor merely wishes to reunite you with the Longevity and Oath Demon Lords. Don’t you miss them?"
"You fiend! I’ll fight you to the death!"
With a furious roar, the Heart Demon Lord threw a punch.
Boom!
The force of the strike surged like a raging tsunami, unleashing a devastating wave of demonic power.
The heavens and earth were instantly plunged into darkness, as if a vast curtain had been drawn over the sky, blotting out the sun.
"Oh?" Gu Qingfeng chuckled. "Have you forgotten that this Emperor can devour your power? And yet you still dare to attack?"
In the next moment, a torrent of demonic light engulfed Gu Qingfeng—but within seconds, he emerged unscathed.
By then, however, the Heart Demon Lord had already fled millions of miles away. His earlier attack had been nothing but a feint.
"Keh keh keh... Useless struggle. No matter how far you run, you’ll never escape this Emperor’s grasp!"
Gu Qingfeng let out a mad laugh, his black hair whipping wildly as his demonic aura dominated the world. He took a step forward, ready to give chase.
Suddenly, a resonant hum echoed through the heavens.
An endless army of heart demons surged from the distant horizon.
They stretched endlessly, a vast black tide like a cosmic sea, rolling with murderous intent and demonic energy so thick it seemed capable of piercing the heavens.
Truly, this was an army of billions, their malevolent aura shaking the skies. Such a force could annihilate entire worlds with ease.
"Stop that fiend at once!!" the Heart Demon Lord shouted as he fled, commanding his demonic horde.
Gu Qingfeng watched the billions of heart demons with amusement. This was the Heart Demon Lord’s accumulated strength over countless eons—and now, it would all belong to him.
Without warning, he opened his mouth wide, activating his Devouring Heaven Divine Art. A terrifying black hole formed within, its suction force so immense it seemed capable of swallowing the sun and moon.
The billions of heart demons stood no chance. Screaming, they were drawn into a swirling black river, all of them sucked into Gu Qingfeng’s belly.
As he devoured them, his Sin of Ultimate Evil began evolving to a higher level. If it had once been an amalgamation of the world’s wicked thoughts, it had now undergone a qualitative transformation.
Countless evil thoughts coalesced into individual heart demons, and those demons in turn merged into something akin to the Heart Demon Lord himself.
In essence, Gu Qingfeng now possessed a portion of the Heart Demon Lord’s essence. Once he fully consumed him, he would effectively become the Heart Demon Lord, wielding the authority of the Heart Demon Dao!
"Keh keh keh... Delicious! Heart Demon Lord, let this Emperor enjoy himself a little longer!" Gu Qingfeng laughed wildly, like a monstrous fiend ready to devour all living things.
"This..."
The Heart Demon Lord’s face twisted in horror. Then, with a furious roar, he bellowed, "If I must die, I’ll drag you down with me!"
Now utterly cornered, he knew Gu Qingfeng could devour his power—but he had no choice but to fight. What else could he do?
Just stand there and wait to be eaten?
Boom!
The Heart Demon Lord unleashed his full power. A flood of demonic light erupted as his form twisted into that of a monstrous asura—green-faced, fanged, clad in armor, muscles bulging with terrifying strength.
Boom!
He charged at Gu Qingfeng.
The clash was cataclysmic. Boundless demonic energy surged and clashed, shaking the void itself.
Yet, the Heart Demon Lord’s desperate assault only filled Gu Qingfeng with delight.
Though their acquaintance had been brief, the Heart Demon Lord had already earned the title of "most satisfying family member."
Not just any family member would go to such lengths—crossing endless distances to visit, helping remove the Heavenly Dao’s suppression, eliminating weaknesses, and even delivering generous gifts.
And that wasn’t all! In the end, he even extended a warm invitation to his home. Where else could one find such hospitality?
Before long, the Heart Demon Lord could no longer keep up.
Gu Qingfeng was like a bottomless abyss. No matter how fierce the attacks or how vast the energy unleashed, he devoured it all without ever being sated.
Silence fell. Despair set in.
As the saying goes—when silence lingers, one either explodes or surrenders.
Suddenly, the Heart Demon Lord spoke. "Emperor Gu... is it too late for me to beg for mercy?"
He truly didn’t want to die. After countless hardships, he had achieved immortality—only to face annihilation now? Who could accept that?
Dignity and pride no longer mattered. All he wanted was to kneel.
"What do you think?" Gu Qingfeng replied with amusement.
Thud!
The Heart Demon Lord dropped to his knees like a collapsing mountain, kowtowing fervently.
"Emperor Gu, I offer all my wealth, all my treasures! I’ll serve you as my master, obeying your every command!"
"Keh keh keh... But if I kill you, I’ll still get all your wealth and treasures anyway."
The Heart Demon Lord shuddered. Bang! Bang! Bang! He knocked his head against the ground three times.
"Emperor Gu, this lowly demon is still useful! I can help you return home!"
Gu Qingfeng shook his head. "This is my home. I’m not going anywhere."
"Then—then you need me even more! You’re new to the Demon Realm, unfamiliar with the land. This lowly one can be your guide!
And—and you like devouring demons, right? The Demon Realm has no shortage of them. I’ve lived here for eons—I know them all!
Just name your target, whatever flavor you crave, and I’ll lead you straight to them!" The Heart Demon Lord spoke with fawning servility.
Gu Qingfeng stroked his chin, genuinely tempted. After all, he was new here, and the Demon Realm was vast. Without a guide, hunting demons would waste too much time.
The Heart Demon Lord was sharp. Seeing Gu Qingfeng’s hesitation, he immediately—bang! bang! bang!—kowtowed three more times.
"Master! Please take this old servant under your wing!"
"Keh keh keh... A mighty Demon Lord, yet so spineless. Weren’t you quite arrogant earlier? Didn’t you want me dead?"
"Though I am a Demon Lord, before you, Master, I am but an ant beneath your heel. I only beg that you spare this lowly one’s life, seeing as I still have some use."
The Heart Demon Lord’s voice trembled, his expression on the verge of tears.
This wasn’t entirely an act—he really did want to cry. And slap himself.
Why had he been so foolish?
Why had he gone to the Cangming Realm to provoke Gu Qingfeng? Why had he brought him back to the Demon Realm? What kind of karma was this?!
Slap! Slap! Slap!...
The Heart Demon Lord actually began slapping his own face—partly to feign pitifulness, but partly because he genuinely wanted to punish himself.
"Do you truly wish to submit?"
"Absolutely, I swear upon the Great Dao—this old servant pledges his loyalty with utmost sincerity! Should I harbor even a trace of deceit, may I suffer eternal torment!" The Heart Demon Lord nodded frantically.
"If there's even a single truthful word you've ever spoken in your life, this Emperor hopes it is this one," Gu Qingfeng said indifferently.
The Heart Demon Lord shuddered inwardly and hurriedly declared, "This old servant would never dare speak a single false word to his master!"
"Kekeke... Since you offer your allegiance so sincerely, this Emperor will reluctantly accept you."
Though Gu Qingfeng spoke of taking the Heart Demon Lord under his wing, he had already made up his mind—once the demon had served his purpose as a guide, he would devour him.
Not for any particular reason, but simply because a family ought to stay together.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!
