I Only Marry Widows

That’s why he chose a side.

Or rather, he had no choice at all.

"You’re quite the schemer, dragging me into this mess." Yan Ling, with a noble lineage, was wary of Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch but was not particularly afraid, just unwilling to invite trouble.

Yet at this moment, with Demon Wheel’s provocation, he could only feign anger and shouted loudly, "Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch, what are you trying to do?"

Lu Chengfeng sat motionless, the Great Sun looming behind him, his Subduing Dragon and Taming Tiger Great Divine Techniques ready to spring forth.

He had just sensed an incredibly fierce intent to kill; the previous strike from Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch was merciless, aimed at his life.

Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch’s hair transformed into one hundred and twenty thousand giant serpents that danced chaotically, fearsome and terrifying. He spoke in a cold tone, "I came here merely to borrow something from him."

"No matter what you intend to borrow, there’s no logic in directly attacking the Venerate Lord." Demon Wheel relentlessly questioned.

"What do you want to borrow?" Lu Chengfeng’s expression turned cold, his tone indifferent as he asked.

"Borrow the Nine Heavens Demon Subduing Venerate’s Talisman Decree for a use!" Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch crossed his arms behind his back, the hundred and twenty thousand giant serpents encircling him, a Black Water Magical Domain gradually spreading under his feet, engulfing the Void and lifting his body.

He stared down at Lu Chengfeng, his words domineering, not tolerating any rebuttal.

"You, such nerve!" Lu Chengfeng’s eyes narrowed slightly. He had just ascended to the Divine Position, and someone was already trying to humiliate him, seize his position, truly not putting him in their eyes!

"Then I’ll take it myself. This thing was never yours. One must know their limitations."

Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch said indifferently. He had already seen through the opponent’s strengths, knowing that he was not some Dharma Form Great Power, not even possessing Combat Techniques Totem, just a lucky upstart who ascended rapidly.

His tone was full of disdain and contempt, with an air of self-importance.

"True Monarch, you are going too far. The Venerate Lord is awarded by the Divine Court. How can you act so recklessly?" Even Yan Ling couldn’t help but frown.

"A mere spineless coward who managed to find a path, thinking he can wield power with a Divine Position?" Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch stared at Lu Chengfeng as if looking at a dead man.

"If you hand over the Talisman Decree today, it’ll end here. If not..."

"And if I don’t?" Before Lu Chengfeng could speak, Demon Wheel had already exclaimed in rage.

"Noisy!" Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch crossed his arms, glanced at Demon Wheel and said, "A mere waste relying on the Divine Position, do you think he can protect you?"

"If you’re not convinced, go ahead and make your move."

"You..." Demon Wheel’s eyebrows rose, his face turning sullen.

"The Divine Position of Nine Heavens Demon Subduing Venerate is not for you to covet. As for the Talisman Decree, I am determined to have it." Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch coldly declared, not concealing anything.

"True Monarch, you’re going a bit too far..." Yan Ling frowned.

"I’m giving you two choices."

Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch’s pupils were like those of a serpent, vertical and devoid of human emotion, staring intently at Lu Chengfeng, ruthlessly cold.

"If you kneel and willingly hand over the Talisman Decree, I’ll spare your life."

"If not, I’ll send you on your way."

Behind Lu Chengfeng, the Great Sun hummed, the roaring sound of dragons and tigers resonated as he slowly stood up from the throne in the hall.

"Do you really wish to engage me? Overestimating your capabilities, today marks your demise; both your Divine Soul and body will be mine." Black Water Profound Origin True Monarch stood on Black Water, encircled by one hundred and twenty thousand giant serpents, a crazed killing intent in his eyes.

Lu Chengfeng merely said in a somewhat indifferent tone, "I hear you have a Tao Companion, named Yuan Qingyi, serving as my Supervisor at Dongzhen Bureau?"

"In that case, I’ll take your wife!"
