Chapter 604: Chapter 551: Joking Becomes Reality_3
Even as a bystander, one’s heart could not help but feel sour and uncomfortable, yet Ning Feiyan, drenched through, seemed to accept her fate as naturally as if she had entered another state of being.
In her eyes, there was no trace of sorrow or sadness, no anger, nor pleas for pity; it seemed as if by others saying so, she had easily accepted her destiny.
Ning Feiyan, with lowered eyes and a gentle demeanor, said softly with a light smile, “Father is willing to sacrifice his cultivation for his daughter’s future, and for that, I am deeply grateful.”
Ning Feiyan gently touched the blue scars on her cheek, saying with a serene smile, “However, I have found another way to rid myself of these facial scars, so why trouble Father to expend his cultivation and energy.”
Ning Guanying found it somewhat unbelievable that Ning Feiyan could accept this so readily, “Is my child truly willing to sacrifice herself for our clan?”
A flicker of faint derision flashed in the depths of Ning Feiyan’s eyes, “Father, what are you saying? Sending your daughter to the Royal Hall of Si He, isn’t it for my own good?”
Ning Guanying had not expected her to be so open-minded; he felt a great sense of relief in his heart and was very happy that he would not need to expend his cultivation to resolve the current predicament.
A few days later, Ning Feiyan indeed kept her promise, and through some unknown means, she completely cleansed the ugly blue marks from her face, transforming her appearance to truly resemble Hong Zhuang.
Moreover, with her innate talent for disguise, during the days before she was sent to the Royal Hall, she actively participated in clan activities under the identity of Hong Zhuang, and not a single person could distinguish her real identity.
However, on the day she was sent to the Royal Hall in Mo City, a terrifying upheaval also occurred in Beiyuan Forest.
The Demon Emperor, sealed in Jimu Land in Beiyuan, suddenly appeared, biting on the Emo Ancient Text, which is an ancient taboo, chanting incantations that set fire to half of the forest that had imprisoned him for tens of thousands of years.
Strangely, although the large group of Enchanting Demons residing in the Deep Forest Tribe had ample time to flee, for reasons unknown, within the domain affected by the Demon Emperor, not a single Enchanting Demon managed to escape.
One hundred thousand Enchanting Demons were all devoured by the Demon Emperor.
The casualties of the Enchanting Demons were enormous, far surpassing even the despair from the invasion battle five years ago, just when the entire forest was on the brink of being wiped out.
Amidst the forest ablaze, a young girl with damaged wings appeared unexpectedly.
She was scantily clothed, her slender arms exposed from under her worn short shirt, with a red cord tied around her wrist bearing the mark of an abandoned demon.
A frail abandoned demon girl appeared in the ancient forest of the Abyss.
Under numerous despairing gazes, the girl slowly raised one pale, delicate arm, then, in full view of the crowd, she beheaded the Demon Emperor.
The cut between the head and body burned with terrifying demonic flames; the dark fire instantly devoured and consumed the Demon Emperor’s immortal body, leaving only a head still gasping in shrieks.
The girl possessed the ability to completely kill the Demon Emperor, but she instead threw the head back into the barrier of the forest, suppressing it once again.
Behind her was a vast sea of fire, her back to the endless flames, her gaze calmly watching them.
The girl suddenly smiled, her blood-stained finger pressed against her lips, her young, beautiful face eerily enchanting, like a beautiful yet lethal demon.
“Good children shouldn’t speak of what they saw today.”
Later on, Ning Feiyan’s act of murdering the lord of Si He and seizing his position, resonated throughout the Demon World.
She proved with her strength that the playful remark her father once said that the entire clan would one day rely on her could indeed become a reality.
The abandoned demon girl Ning Guanying saw that night soon afterwards ascended to the throne as their new Monarch.
Everything happened so unexpectedly.
