With No Woman in His Heart, His Sword Drew with Divine Ease!

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince, the Demon Suppression Bureau handles all matters related to sects. This is a rule set by His Majesty. Though Your Highness is a prince, you cannot interfere in the affairs of our Demon Suppression Bureau," Lu Cang said gravely.

"Please do not lead yourself astray, Your Highness. Otherwise, the Demon Suppression Bureau can only report today's matter to His Majesty and leave it for him to handle!"

"Fine."

With a wave of Qin Luo's hand, the Human Emperor Banner emerged and enveloped Lin Xuan.

No one had expected Qin Luo to be so forceful, showing not even the slightest regard for the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Moreover, the Demon Suppression Bureau's actions had been perfectly justified.

Chu Heng's expression darkened in an instant as he looked at Su Qianchen. "Saint Su, the Ninth Prince's actions violate the rules."

"This matter should fall under the jurisdiction of our Demon Suppression Bureau!"

Su Qianchen sneered. "Rules? You're talking to me about rules?"

"Don't think I don't know what you're all thinking. You want the man? Fine—have your Demon Suppression Bureau Commander come here!"

"A mere Deputy Commander like you isn't qualified!"

Qin Luo was not afraid of causing trouble, so why the hell should Su Qianchen be afraid?

Qin Luo was his only remaining relative. His Lineage had already gone to ruin, so he had no need to consider so much.

Chu Heng had not expected Su Qianchen to confront him so head-on.

It made him feel rather uncomfortable. To be honest, whenever the Demon Suppression Bureau acted in the past, they had always succeeded without hindrance.

But when they encountered these two men, who had almost nothing tying them down, it was like crashing into a solid rock.

"Extract his Origin Essence!" Qin Luo ordered Xi Huang in a deep voice.

He had originally wanted to properly torment Lin Xuan, but he had not expected him to bring out even the Deputy Commander of the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Wouldn't he be able to bring out even more powerful figures next?

Then he could not give Lin Xuan even the slightest chance. Drain him dry!

Qin Luo had now witnessed just how protagonists could always turn the tide against the wind.

"Alright!" Xi Huang naturally knew what Qin Luo intended.

With a wave of her hand, a force penetrated deep into Lin Xuan's body.

Terror filled Lin Xuan's face. "What are you doing? What are you trying to do to me?"

"No—aaah!" Lin Xuan's agonized howl seemed to pass through the Human Emperor Banner and reach the outside.

Qin Yun knew she could not wait any longer.

She stepped forward and took out a token, facing Su Qianchen and Qin Luo.

"This was personally bestowed by His Majesty. To see this token is as if His Majesty himself has arrived!"

"Qin Luo, I order you to release Lin Xuan!"

Boom!

The token exploded with a roar, and a majestic face whose features could not be seen clearly appeared in the center of the courtyard.

Many people immediately dropped to their knees.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

That indistinct face would condense into the Qin Emperor's true appearance in a short time.

The Qin Emperor had now turned his attention here and could even descend through the power of this token!

Whoosh! Qin Luo reappeared, but Lin Xuan was no longer with him. He looked at that majestic face, then glanced at Qin Yun.

"For a mere Lin Xuan, wasting something this precious... tsk, tsk..." Qin Luo remarked.

The value of this token far exceeded that of a Saint Artifact.

This was surely a life-saving item the Qin Emperor had left for Qin Yun. Yet Qin Yun had not used it to save her own life, but to protect Lin Xuan instead.

As expected, the Fortune of a Child of Destiny is simply heaven-defying! Qin Luo mused inwardly.

Qin Yun's heart ached terribly, but a debt of gratitude had to be repaid. Especially since she had come specifically to repay that debt, only for Qin Luo to slap her in the face—this was a humiliation to her.

Thus, she was now acting without regard for consequences.

Lin Xuan had to live!

Otherwise, where would Qin Yun have any face left?

As for Qin Luo, a fierce glint flashed in her eyes as she looked at him. There was plenty of time ahead. She would make Qin Luo understand the consequences of offending her!

She would make it impossible for Qin Luo to take even a single step in the Imperial Capital, or even throughout the Great Qin Dynasty!

"Qin Luo, do you dare defy His Majesty?!" Qin Yun berated Qin Luo.

In truth, she desperately wished Qin Luo would defy the Qin Emperor. Then the Qin Emperor would certainly punish him severely. Even if Qin Luo did not die, he would lose a layer of skin.

"Of course I don't dare." Qin Luo was no idiot. What was the basis for his arrogance? His identity as a prince.

Unless his brain was broken, why would he defy the invisible backer behind him?

He looked at Qin Yun and smiled faintly. "Fine, my dear sister. Today, I'll spare Lin Xuan's life for your sake."

"You win!"

As Qin Luo's words fell, Xi Huang's voice rang out beside his ear.

"It's done!"

"No!" Lin Xuan roared, his expression twisted with fury.

[Lin Xuan has lost the Five-Elements Spirit Body and all Fortune Points. Host has obtained 228,000 Villain Points!]

[Hint: Lin Xuan has not yet lost his status as a Child of Destiny. Heaven's Will has left him a thread of opportunity. Please kill the Child of Destiny as soon as possible to obtain an unexpected reward.]

Hm? There's even an unexpected reward? Qin Luo's heart stirred. Just as he was about to have Xi Huang kill Lin Xuan, he saw that the phantom in the sky was about to open its eyes.

He felt a sense of being watched.

Xi Huang's warning voice also sounded beside his ear.

"This is bad. He may discover my identity!"

Whoosh! Qin Luo did not hesitate. He immediately put away the Human Emperor Banner.

Bang! He threw Lin Xuan at Qin Yun's feet.

"Lin Xuan, Her Highness the Princess pleaded for you. I promised not to kill you today!"

"Scram!"

"Argh!" Lin Xuan let out a pained howl. His cultivation had fallen! It had dropped to the first level of the Divine Ability Realm!

And it was still continuing to decline!

"Qin Luo, I'll kill you!" Lin Xuan roared. He rose to his feet, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell stiffly backward.

But he did not fall onto the cold ground. He fell into Qin Yun's embrace.

She immediately examined Lin Xuan's body and found it completely empty within, while his injuries were extremely severe.

This was...?

"His physique's Origin Essence was forcibly extracted. His talent has been stripped away!" Lu Cang said beside her, his expression ugly.

Qin Yun's eyes instantly reddened. She glared at Qin Luo, her expression slightly twisted. "Qin Luo, you have some nerve!"

Qin Luo spoke leisurely. "I only said I would spare his life. I never said I wouldn't cripple him!"

"He dared attack me time and again, and dared covet my Qin Luo's concubine. Am I, Qin Luo, a dignified prince, supposed to have no pride?"

"Today, you insist on turning your elbow outward? Or do you have an illicit affair with this Lin Xuan! For a man, you actually disregard the affection between us siblings!"

"I've already given you face. Take him and leave! My residence does not welcome any of you!"

"Please!"

The face in the sky seemed to open its eyes and glance at Qin Luo before fading into nothingness.

Whew... Qin Luo let out a long breath. He felt that the Imperial Capital was fucking dangerous. There were too many important figures here. He should find a way to develop outside.

"Fine, Qin Luo. Fine. You're truly something!" Qin Yun glared viciously at Qin Luo, then turned and left with Lin Xuan in her arms.

Li Chang of the Myriad Phenomena Sacred Land looked at Qin Luo with especially icy eyes. However, he did not leave behind any threats and simply departed in silence.

Chu Heng gave Qin Luo a deep look, as though he wanted to burn Qin Luo's appearance into his mind.

He had seen plenty of arrogant people, but this was the first time he had seen a prince this arrogant.

"He'll never amount to much!" Chu Heng gave his assessment after leaving.

After they had all gone, the new steward of the prince's residence stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, shall the ceremony continue?"

The so-called ceremony was naturally the ceremony for taking a concubine.

Qin Luo glanced at Gu Qingxue. Her entire body trembled, and she forced a smile at him.

She was terrified of Qin Luo from the bottom of her heart.

"What ceremony? Is she even worthy?"

Qin Luo turned around and thrust out his sword. Pfft! It pierced Gu Qingxue through the heart.

"Why?" Gu Qingxue looked at Qin Luo in disbelief.

"Because I find her filthy!"

There was no reason for him to transmigrate only to take the protagonist's castoff shoes. It was not as if he had any peculiar tastes.

Besides, if he kept this woman by his side, she might stab him in the back one day.

There was also one crucial point: Fortune Points. He needed them. Even a fly's leg was still meat, wasn't it?

[With no woman in his heart, his sword draws with divine ease. Killing a Daughter of Destiny. Reward obtained: comprehension of Sword Intent Prototype.]

[Gu Qingxue has been killed and lost all Fortune Points. Host has obtained 8,800 Fortune Points.]
