Heavenly Demon Sect.
"Saintess! Saintess!"
"Reporting to the Saintess, the Qin Luo you asked us to keep an eye on seems to have been judged by the Tai Xu Sacred Land!"
"Oh?" The woman who was cultivating opened her eyes, which sparkled like two twinkling stars, sometimes bright as daylight, sometimes deep as a black hole, as if they could see through all the secrets of the world.
The woman being watched by her gaze immediately lowered her head.
She slowly stood up, possessing a pair of impossibly long legs and an extremely exaggerated figure. Her long, jet-black hair cascaded casually over her shoulders, dancing lightly in the wind, as if it contained endless magic. Her delicate face looked incredibly enchanting.
"Tai Xu Sacred Land, haha, they really don't know their place."
"Pass the word, I want to see Qin Luo alive."
"He saved my life, I'll save his. A life for a life, that's enough!"
"Yes!"
Only Qin Luo himself knew that the accusation by Tai Xu Sacred Land of him colluding with the Saintess of the Heavenly Demon Sect was not unfounded.
In a secret realm, Qin Luo had saved the heavily injured Saintess of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Ye Lingxuan.
The previous host was someone who judged by appearances, believing that beauty equated to justice. Who cared if she was the Saintess of the Heavenly Demon Sect? With such beauty, how could she be a demon?
...
The Great Qin Imperial Capital was the largest city of the Great Qin Empire, with a population exceeding ten million.
At this moment, in a luxurious mansion, a fair-skinned man was holding a seductive woman, listening to his subordinate's report, and sneered, "Tsk tsk, is the wild child from outside coming back?"
"Isn't it nice to live freely outside? Why come to this dragon's den and tiger's lair?"
"This is a place that devours people, don't you think?" The man lowered his head and lifted the woman's chin to ask.
The woman smiled charmingly, "Of course, Your Highness is right."
The man's name was Qin Feng, the Eighth Prince of the Great Qin Empire.
"Is that so? Haha..." Qin Feng sneered, saying to the woman, "Kneel."
The woman glanced at him with sultry eyes, then slowly knelt down.
While enjoying the woman's service, Qin Feng instructed his subordinate, "Since my brother is coming, as his elder brother, I should welcome him and send a gift, don't you think?"
"Your Highness, just give the order, and I will make the arrangements."
Qin Feng tapped his fingers on the table, deep in thought. Get faster updates on g.com.
After a while, his eyes lit up, and he patted the woman lying on him, saying, "I think it would be best to send her to my brother."
Qin Feng patted her cheek and said, "My brother is a prince, how about you become his concubine?"
The woman whimpered in response, "I will follow Your Highness's orders."
In another mansion in the Imperial Capital, a woman angrily spoke to her father, "I won't marry!"

"The Emperor has ordered it, how can you refuse?"
"Do you want our entire Gu family to be executed?"
Gu Qingxue, a renowned beauty in the Imperial Capital, and her father was one of the vice-deans of the Great Qin Academy.
The Great Qin Academy was the place where the Great Qin Empire nurtured talents, and about half of the marquises of the Great Qin Empire had once cultivated there.
As a vice-dean of the academy, Gu Yanting himself had the cultivation of the Sage Realm, and with many of his students being marquises, his status was quite exalted.
Gu Qingxue was also the object of admiration and pursuit by many young ladies and gentlemen in the Imperial Capital.
Her cultivation had already reached the ninth level of the Sea-Opening Realm, just a step away from the Divine Ability Realm, making her a genius.
Now, the Emperor had ordered her to marry the Ninth Prince of the Great Qin Empire, which she found utterly absurd.
"I don't know his background, I don't know what he looks like, and I know nothing about his character."
"Just because he holds the title of a prince of the Great Qin Empire, I have to marry him?" Gu Qingxue said indignantly.
Gu Yanting nodded, "Yes, that title is more than enough."
"But I don't want to marry him."
Gu Yanting sighed, "Unless he himself is willing to cancel the engagement, otherwise..."
Gu Qingxue's eyes brightened. Indeed, their Gu family was a subject and could not defy the Emperor's order, but what if Qin Luo himself canceled the engagement?
Now that she had a plan, it was just a matter of execution. She immediately called her friends over.
Among them were not only her simps but also her mutual love and childhood sweetheart, Lin Xuan.
A descendant of a declining family, Lin Xuan had become a disciple of the Great Qin Academy through his own efforts and had successfully joined the Demon Suppression Division of the Great Qin Empire, with a bright future ahead. This chapter was copied from novelping(.)com without permission.
Gu Qingxue simply mentioned that she was about to marry a Ninth Prince of the Great Qin Empire who had appeared out of nowhere, which infuriated her simps.
She tearfully said, "I dare not defy His Majesty's order, unless..."
"Unless what!" Marquis Yingwu's grandson impatiently asked.
"Unless, unless the Ninth Prince himself agrees to cancel the engagement."
Upon hearing this, many people's eyes lit up.
"This Ninth Prince who appeared out of nowhere is not worthy of Qingxue. I think we should make him retreat in the face of difficulties!"
"Leave it to me, I'll go find out when that Ninth Prince is arriving, and I'll welcome him at the city gate!" Marquis Yingwu's only grandson eagerly said.
As Marquis Yingwu's only grandson, he was notorious for being arrogant and domineering in the Great Qin Empire.
He had already decided that Gu Qingxue was his woman, and he, Chen Mo, would not allow some Ninth Prince who appeared out of nowhere to take her away!
The tearful Gu Qingxue stirred a strong protective instinct in Chen Mo, and he promised her, "Even if that Ninth Prince doesn't agree, I'll ask my grandfather to speak to His Majesty. Rest assured, Qingxue!"
At this moment, he was like the ultimate simp, completely unaware that Gu Qingxue was already exchanging flirtatious glances with Lin Xuan.
"Thank you, Brother Chen Mo."
The words "Brother Chen Mo" made Chen Mo feel weak in the knees, as if he could already see himself suppressing Qin Luo and holding Gu Qingxue in his arms, living a carefree life.
After sending those people away, Gu Qingxue threw herself into Lin Xuan's arms.
"Brother Lin Xuan, Qingxue missed you so much."
Lin Xuan stroked Gu Qingxue's hair, giving her a great sense of security.
"Don't worry, Qingxue, I won't let you marry anyone else."
"If that Ninth Prince doesn't know his place, I'll teach him the meaning of the word 'death.'"
"No..." Gu Qingxue quickly stopped Lin Xuan, "Brother Lin Xuan, don't be impulsive. He is the Ninth Prince of the Great Qin Empire."
Lin Xuan sneered, "Just the Ninth Prince of the Great Qin Empire. Even if I kill him, no one will be able to find out."
The reason he was able to rise from a humble background was that he had received a legacy, and it was an emperor's legacy.
"Hopefully, he knows what's good for him. My woman, Lin Xuan's woman, is not someone just anyone can covet."
