Chaos-Second Update!

Starshine Floating City.

Duke Saya lay on her side on the bed, nestled in the arms of the handsome Blake Black. She stretched out her finger and drew circles on Blake's chest, occasionally sticking out her tongue in a seductive display.

"I heard that the Winged Clan once split up, and a Winged Clan True God led most of the Winged Clan to join the Lord of the Seventy-Two Layers of the Abyss, becoming the first Immortal True God of the Abyss."

Duke Saya looked up at Blake's handsome face.

Blake's wings trembled slightly, his face showing undisguised disgust. "Kamer's betrayal of the Light God is an eternal disgrace to the Winged Clan."

Seeing Blake's disgust for 'the god-betrayers' and 'the fallen Winged Clan '.

Duke Saya's face was buried in Blake's chest, her gray eyes flashing with an eerie light.

But at this moment—

"Huh?"

Duke Saya felt a sudden surge of emotion, followed by a sharp contraction of his heart. His once clear and pure soul seemed to be entangled by strands of blood. The blood strands tightened, causing his soul to feel bound and to experience waves of excruciating pain.

"Curse!"

"Who is Curse me?!"

Duke Saya sat bolt upright, his soul already shrouded in blood. A tightness gripped his chest; even this dignified duke found it difficult to breathe.

"Saya, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Duke Saya's face was turning pale at a visible speed and her breath was weakening, Blake quickly asked.

"I--"

"Ah!"

Before Duke Saya could even open his mouth, he felt the blood vessels on his soul suddenly tighten, as if they were being sliced open. The pain was a thousand times worse than being slowly tortured to death.

"Curse!"

Blake finally realized what was happening, his eyes blazing with fury. "Who dares to Curse the Duke of Starshine Floating City!"

Duke Saya looked pained.

Unable to speak.

Blake's hands glowed with holy light as he gently stroked Duke Saya's face. Holy light could dispel evil and break Curse.

However, just as it entered Duke Saya's body, an evil and hateful power surged out from it and invaded directly through Blake's hands.

"This is--"

"This is Augustine's power!"

The holy light emanating from Blake's body instantly dispelled this power. However, the evil and abhorrent forces, like thorns, quickly coalesced and entangled him tightly. Even the holy light could not drive them away or disperse them.

"Saya".

Blake looked at Duke Saya, his hands already away from Duke Arthur's face, seemingly realizing something and finding it hard to accept.

"My dearest Blake— "

Duke Saya strained to lift her head, flashing a breathtaking smile at Blake. Yet, this smile was also shrouded in evil and hatred. And in the next instant, black vines tore through her beautiful face, growing wildly.

Upon closer inspection.

These are not vines.

"Wicked Thorns!"

Blake was enveloped in holy light, his eyes fixed on Duke Saya.

Because of the Curse on his soul, Duke Saya's control over his soul and body has been reduced to an unprecedented level.

The evil and hatred hidden deep within the soul slowly emanated and spread throughout the body.

Thorns covered in black spikes sprouted from his body, instantly covering the bed and enveloping Blake.

"Why."

Why do this?

The holy light emanating from Blake grew ever more intense, falling upon Duke Saya and causing her soul unspeakable agony. However, the pain in Blake's heart was no less than that of Duke Saya.

"Why?"

"Dear Duke Blake, can't you see clearly even now?"

Duke Saya endured the pain, his face distorted and twisted, as ugly as a demon from the abyss. No longer concealing himself, he let out a series of strange cackling sounds, mocking Blake wantonly, "If you can't see clearly, let me tell you. I have long been a loyal servant of the Thorn Duke, and I have gone to great lengths to enter the Starshine Floating City in order to realize the Thorn Duke's plan to rule the abyss."

"Not only me."

"And there's Doyle, and countless Thorn Apostles hidden within the Starshine Floating City. Blake, the Starshine generals are extinguished! Quickly join the ranks of the Thorn Duke and, like your ancestors, become a great Abyss War God!"

Duke Saya's words Blake Blake's heart like steel nails.

It was bloody.

It hurts like ice.

The holy light emanating from Blake grew stronger, its divine power illuminating all directions.

The black thorns continuously turned into black smoke and dissipated.

Duke Saya's soul grew weaker and weaker, yet her voice became increasingly unrestrained, "Blake, it's all in vain! The glory of the Grand Duke of Thorns will shatter the Holy Light and sweep across the abyss!"

Blake's face was filled with grief, which was buried in the holy light.

Duke Saya's voice gradually faded, and the black thorns that had grown from her body were burned to ashes by the holy light.

Holy light shines.

The light shone on Duke Saya.

The soul is Curse, and the body is corrupted by holy light.

"The generals of Starshine Floating City are destroyed!"

"Blake, you can't stop him!"

Duke Saya's body smiled completely under the holy light, and his last words echoed throughout the palace.

"Augustine!"

"Augustine!!"

"Augustine!!!"

Amidst the radiant holy light, a furious roar, the 'Enlightener,' echoed from Blake Black's mansion.

The floating city is shaken!

"Grey Elf".

"The Duke."

"Duke Saya, one of the five supreme council members and one of the five dukes of the floating city."

The person who was Curse by the 'Demonic Baleful Entangling Silk Divine Curse' was completely dead.

Lu Qingfeng opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing in them.

"If it weren't for the 'Seven Birds Lesser Evolving Numerology' and the 'Five-Ghost Soul-Seizing Method,' I would have almost been misled." Lu Qingfeng shook his head, the backlash from casting the spell had been stabilized.

Strengthening it to the level of Great Divine Ability, and then sacrificing Difu, who was at the viscount level, to curse and kill a duke lord who was equivalent to the Golden Core level, the backlash on Lu Qingfeng was not significant to begin with.

At most, one or two months of recuperation will completely eliminate the backlash and leave no hidden dangers.

Only.

"He is, after all, a duke. Even if he is Curse, it should take him forty-nine days to die completely."

"How--"

Lu Qingfeng counted on his fingers.

The secrets of heaven were shrouded in mystery, but fortunately, the 'Seven Birds Lesser Evolving Numerology' was Great Divine Ability, and Duke Saya's death was closely related to him, so he was able to barely calculate it.

"I see."

Lu Qingfeng shook his head. "This Duke Saya is truly extraordinary. If she hadn't schemed against me, she might have really turned Starshine Floating City upside down."

It's all about timing and fate.

Duke Saya probably never imagined that her brilliant plan would be ruined and completely collapse because of the newly promoted lord, Baron Guangyuan, whom she completely despised and regarded as a pawn in her conspiracy.

"Even so."

"The betrayal and death of a duke will plunge Starshine Floating City into unprecedented chaos."

The entire Starshine Floating City only has five dukes, enough to barely contend with Grand Duke Augustine Thorns to the west. Now that one has died, while it won't be completely destroyed, it will certainly fall into decline.

Add to that the chaos caused by internal suspicion and purges.

Beset by internal and external troubles.

The situation is not optimistic.

"Starshine Floating City has an excellent reputation in the Land of Thorns and Starlight. If we can take control of the Sky City or bring it under our command, the pace of spreading the gospel in the Barbarian God Realm will be greatly accelerated."

This time.

Lu Qingfeng doesn't need to analyze his Ability or make enemies of the world, thus avoiding the path of the Galaxy Realm. He can instead win over people's hearts and establish a true 'Guangyuan Immortal Sect,' instead of being called an 'immortal' but referred to as a 'demon' by the world.

Decisive and ruthless.

It's to avoid trouble, not to invite trouble.

Therefore, even knowing that it was Duke Saya of Starshine Floating City who wanted to harm him, and even having the confidence to infiltrate Duke Saya silently and kill him with swift and decisive action.

To demonstrate their own strength and show that they are not to be trifled with.

But Lu Qingfeng did not choose to do so.

Instead, it was done in a more discreet way—

He used a spell to curse Duke Saya to death.

Certainly.

Duke Saya was actually a spy planted by Augustine in the Starshine Floating City, something Lu Qingfeng had never expected before he executed the curse.

It was a lucky accident.

"Originally, killing Difu would have caused some trouble for Doyle. Now that Starshine Floating City is definitely in chaos, Doyle probably won't be able to attend to it anymore."

"Amidst internal strife."

"Augustine will certainly not let this great opportunity pass. Even if he cannot swallow Starshine Floating City, he will take the opportunity to start a war and weaken the strength of the floating city."

"If I appeared as a savior when Augustine started the war, I would win the hearts of countless people."

Lu Qingfeng's lips curled up slightly.

True feelings can never be kept forever.

Only routines win people's hearts.

Only.

"Deceptive schemes and intrigues cannot last long."

"Human calculations are ultimately no match for divine calculations. No matter how much you scheme, you still have to rely on your own strength. Only by consolidating your foundation and following the righteous path can you truly become unshakeable."

Lu Qingfeng was perfectly clear-headed.

Conspiracy.

Trick.

These are all minor paths!

To contend with the two powerful beings in the Barbarian God Realm, we must uphold righteousness and not give them any ammunition against us.

"To promote the orthodox tradition."

"To educate and enlighten the entire world."

"It's not that simple."

Lu Qingfeng pondered silently, then closed his eyes and recited the "Yellow Court Scripture" aloud.

Time passes.

Just as Lu Qingfeng had guessed, Duke Saya's betrayal and death ignited the entire Starshine Floating City.

I can't believe it.

Everyone felt insecure.

Under these circumstances, a top-down purge began.

Teams of paladins patrolled back and forth, and mind mages searched and screened, until all the gray elves in and around Starshine Floating City were arrested and imprisoned.

This investigation...

Indeed, we reaped considerable rewards.

In just three days, nearly a hundred evil individuals, either controlled by evil forces or by Duke Saya's charm abilities, were identified.

Not only grey elves, but also other races.

Publicly executing someone of the death penalty is ruthless and has a powerful deterrent effect.

However, as one evildoer after another was exposed, and even close friends were captured and executed, the Heart Movement Starshine Floating City were thrown into turmoil and gripped by fear.

Report.

It was reported.

To frame someone.

He was framed.

The word "chaos" is far more than enough to describe it.

Twentieth day after Duke Saya's death.

Augustine, the Great Duke of Thorns, located in the Thorn Grand Rift to the west, dispatched his undead, trolls, Ironridge Dwarves, and numerous abyssal Devil Creature to cross the Fadir Marsh and launch an attack on Starshine Floating City.

A major battle is imminent.
