Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1275: Dust Settles

Chapter 1275: Chapter 1275: Dust Settles

Having her identity uncovered by Qin Sisi, Ge Lun laughed in rage, "You wild girl, do you really think you’re fit to be the betrothed of the Sage Ruler? Once you’re dead, the position of Saint Consort will surely belong to our Qing Ming family."

"Dream on!" Qin Sisi replied coldly, imdiately taking out the Sparrow Spirit Scepter, unleashing Fire Attribute Magic skill to counter Ge Lun.

After a few exchanges, both were secretly shocked.

Ge Lun knew Qin Sisi had beco a Demon Emperor, but he believed it was due to the pills from Ye You and refused to believe Qin Sisi had that strong combat ability. He also assud his combat experience was much richer, giving him a high chance of victory.

Yet the truth proved that Qin Sisi was genuinely powerful, her moves decisive and sharp, not rely a paper tiger propped up by alchemical ans.

Since leveling up to Demon Emperor, Qin Sisi had rarely encountered weaker opponents. Now facing off with Ge Lun, she understood the saying "old ginger is spicier."

Though Ge Lun was of the sa level, his strength was evidently more profound. After several rounds, they seed evenly matched on the surface, but Qin Sisi’s magic power was depleting quite rapidly.

At this mont, Ge Lun was clouded by anger and wouldn’t listen to anyone. The Qing Ming family had been neglected and suppressed by Ye You recently, making him increasingly furious and confused.

Was it really just as Ge Lanxue said, to comply with any punishnt from Ye You and to live with his tail between his legs from then on?

Ge Lun was unwilling! The Qing Ming family used to be the most powerful family in the Demon Sacred Realm aside from the Jiuxi Royal Family, thanks to producing two Saint Consorts consecutively, their influence was skyrocketing, flourishing, and everyone would show them deference.

Why should he be reprimanded and punished by Ye You now?

Thinking again and again, Ge Lun eventually blad all the wrongs on Qin Sisi; it was all because of Qin Sisi’s presence that Ye You would not accept Ya Ling, and because of that, he had a falling out with Ye You and refused to help him, leading to today’s awkward predicant.

He believed if Qin Sisi were dead, by Ya Ling’s conditions, she still had a good chance to beco the Saint Consort.

With this in mind, Ge Lun gathered the most powerful and loyal individuals from his family and ambushed along the route the i Lan family took to return to Miaoyin City.

Seeing Chi Xun leave early, Ge Lun was overjoyed, "Heaven is aiding !"

Last ti during the assassination of Qin Sisi, he was bitten on the calf by a snake from Qin Sisi’s mouth, poisoning him and missing the best chance to kill Qin Sisi.

This matter had been gnawing at him, but he learned the magical effects of poison from it. So this ti, with ticulous planning, he used poison first, then magic in his assassination attempt.

The effect was indeed very good, and Ge Lun felt very confident, thinking he would surely succeed this ti.

Unexpectedly, Qin Sisi’s reaction was so quick; the poison had little effect on her, so it had to turn into a magic battle, just like the first ti.

As for Yi Rou, Chen Song, and Wen Xuan, Ge Lun didn’t intend to make enemies with the i Lan family, so he rely instructed his n to keep them entangled so they couldn’t assist Qin Sisi.

Two Interdiate Demon Emperors engaged in a duel in the All Souls Forest, causing the nearby trees to tremble amidst the waves of energy.

Ice Magic passed by, leaving a layer of frost on the plants; Fire Magic passed by, providing slight warmth to the cold, but if too strong, it could burn all the leaves away.

Just as the battle between Qin Sisi and Ge Lun reached its climax, a black figure suddenly appeared, standing shoulder to shoulder with Qin Sisi, the dazzling Phoenix Scepter in hand unleashing purple flas with a move powerful enough to change heaven and earth: Phoenix Fire.

A golden phoenix shadow circled in mid-air, then quickly swooped down, passing through Ge Lun’s chest.

"No!" Ge Lun cried out in agony, disbelief etched across his face.

"Your Highness..." Ge Lun dared not fight any longer, half-kneeling on the ground with his heavily injured body.

The newcor was Ye You, who hadn’t expected Ge Lun’s assassination, but due to his imnse concern for Qin Sisi, he specifically ordered two guards from the Panhu family to stealthily use Burrow Escape to follow the i Lan family’s carriage convoy, to report back imdiately without confrontation in case anything happened.

When the convoy was attacked by Ge Lun and his n, the two guards hidden within the earth imdiately signaled Ye You as planned, allowing him to rush over in ti.

Seeing this, the other black-clad n knew things weren’t going well and began to put away their weapons, kneeling behind Ge Lun to plead for rcy.

However, two of the black-clad n seed to have ulterior motives and took the chance to escape while the others were not paying attention.

Ye You’s Phoenix Scepter swung forcefully, releasing the Holy Fire Illusion Sword, whistling towards the two attempting to escape.

As a High-level Demon Emperor, Ye You’s magic power was extraordinary. In the next second, the two black-clad n with delusions of escape were reduced to black ashes by the Holy Fire Illusion Sword.

anwhile, one after another of Panhu family guards erged from the surrounding soil, led by Yun Wang, encircling Ge Lun and his n, binding them tightly with magically enhanced ropes to take them back to Wang City.

Having dealt with the troublemakers, Ye You hurriedly asked about Qin Sisi’s condition, checking her over carefully while pressing her shoulders. Only after Qin Sisi repeatedly assured him she was fine did he let go.

Qin Sisi was unhard, but Yi Rou felt uncomfortable, being both poisoned and frightened, and having fought with three black-clad n for a long ti. Now that it was over, she felt a slight pain in her lower abdon again.

Thinking of the baby in her belly, Yi Rou’s face was no longer relaxed and carefree as usual, but full of tension and worry.

Chen Song was even more worried and guilty, thinking if he were just a bit stronger, Yi Rou wouldn’t have had to endure so much hardship.

Given the situation, it was impossible for them to continue back to Miaoyin City. After discussing, they decided Wen Xuan should continue the journey, to quickly return to Miaoyin City to inform Chi Xun of what happened on the road.

Yi Rou and Chen Song followed Ye You and Qin Sisi back to Wang City, where the families specializing in healing, the Muyin family and the Zhulu family, had not yet left, and they could ask them to examine Yi Rou’s body.

The i Lan family’s carriages were all destroyed, and the horses were dead. Fortunately, Ye You had just received a gift from Master Shuoyu these past two days—a small flying device nad "Shadowless," which could carry up to five people.

Ye You hadn’t used it yet, and now was the perfect ti. He retrieved the "Shadowless" flying device from his Portable Space, letting Qin Sisi, Yi Rou, and Chen Song sit inside, and personally piloted the aircraft to Wang City.
