The Corruption Dragon God: Lust System-Chapter 563 - He must die.

Ruxue completely lost her strength, falling backward, her head hitting Qingyi’s powerful chest.

"Are you okay?" Qingyi asked, hugging her tightly and kneeling down, placing her on his lap.

The seed of life was already working, beginning to heal the terrible wounds on his body.

Honestly, if it weren’t for it, Qingyi would be dead for sure.

It was impossible, even for the best doctors in that world, to heal such terrible injuries.

"I’m..." Ruxue replied softly, watching the blood staining the Heaven-Defying Thunder Sword.

There was little satisfaction in that revenge, not when she knew she hadn’t killed him completely, not when he was still breathing.

"Is there something you want to talk about?" Qingyi turned his face slightly, placing a kiss on her lips.

"You’re injured... you should heal yourself first." Ruxue replied, placing her hand on a terrible wound on his chest.

Her dress was ruined by Qingyi’s blood, but she didn’t care.

"The seed of life is already healing me, and besides..." Qingyi took one of the divine healing pills prepared by Sapphire, Margareth, Biyue, and Feiyan, swallowing it.

Immediately, his body began to burn, his Qi reserves rapidly increasing.

"Hm~~" Ruxue’s eyes closed, long-lost memories returning to her mind.

She couldn’t even remember how long ago it was.

Perhaps one hundred and twenty, one hundred and thirty thousand years?

It was a long, long time ago.

***

In a world ruled by flames and death, there was only a single female figure.

Well, calling that place a world would be an exaggeration, it would be more accurate to call it a moon.

The figure stood there, surrounded by a sea of corpses.

Some were the size of buildings, others as small as children.

They were all demon warriors of various races and types, humanoids, although some crossed the threshold more than others.

The woman’s beauty was hidden, her face covered by a whitened veil, the only part of her garments that was not soaked in blood.

She looked at the demons coldly as she held, in her hands, the Heaven-Defying thunder sword.

A blade forged by her own father, a tool to purge demons and tear through the heavenly lightning itself, if necessary.

"Hmm... Ruxue, the demon lord we seek is not among these, is it?" she asked, her voice sweet and soft like a symphony played in the cold breeze of a frosty morning.

She waited for an answer, but before she even got one, she froze.

Her eyes immediately rose, falling on a figure descending from the skies.

It was a handsome man with blue skin, red eyes, and long, sharp horns.

"Oh... my dear, I didn’t know you had come to my lands! Are you here to accept the proposal to become my concubine? Hahahaha!" The demon laughed loudly.

If Qingyi were there, he would recognize him as the Heavenly Demon. As arrogant and disgusting as ever.

"I’m here to kill one of your annoying minions, but..." The woman paused briefly. "You’ll do."

The moment her voice fell, she slashed, so fast that the only thing the Heavenly Demon saw was a flash of light.

A deep gash appeared on his chest and on the ground below, a cut of Qi splitting everything around them, flowing toward the cosmos above and sinking relentlessly toward the ground beneath their feet.

The next moment, she appeared in space, right in front of a huge flying ship.

The moon where she had been standing collapsed before her eyes, the cut splitting it in two.

She was known as the sword maiden, the most skilled swordswoman who had ever walked that world, the daughter of a legendary blacksmith and a beauty without compare.

"That should teach you a lesson."

Caressing the hilt of her sword, she returned to the spaceship, flying toward the cosmos.

***

"It took the Heavenly Demon more than a thousand years to heal from that cut, and he never truly accepted the shame of being denied, let alone the shame of being so severely wounded by someone from the younger generation." Ruxue spoke against Qingyi’s chest.

Her lips trembled, and she gripped his hand tightly.

"Unable to kill her personally, he used a poison called soul-stealing poison, turning her body into an empty shell and causing terrible damage to my blade..."

"It was because of him that I fell, it was because of him that she was cursed to a miserable life without a body, it was because of him that all those innocent people died, and it was because of him that the old Corruption Dragon God went mad."

Ruxue bit her lower lip, tears streaming down her cheeks. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"He must die... before he can recreate her body and do terrible things to her..."

"I know, my dear..." Qingyi used his hand to wipe the tears from Ruxue’s face, feeling her pain.

It was hard to see her suffer like this, and his own heart ached when he thought about how much she cared for her first bearer.

"Don’t worry, he won’t recreate her body, and even if he does, I’d just have to steal her right from under his nose, right? Don’t you know your husband? I’m great at these things! Hehehe..."

Ruxue froze at those words, then was unable to stop a soft giggle from escaping her lips.

"You shameless womanizer... you never miss a chance to throw yourself into the arms of a pure maiden, do you?"

"It’s my special talent, you know?"

Ruxue could do little but laugh, rubbing her face against Qingyi’s chest.

"I just want her soul to be free, for her to no longer be in the hands of that bastard... that’s all..."

"I know..." Qingyi gave Ruxue’s butt a gentle pat, grabbing it firmly.

Honestly, he only wanted to ascend to the celestial heavens as quickly as possible and grow wildly again.

But in the end, on the path of cultivation, patience was one of the most important foundations.

They had already caused enough destruction in the world, and now, it was time to rebuild.

Standing up, with Ruxue returning to the world of the mind, Qingyi located his father-in-law, Jin Hao, the gold king.
