Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

Miss Zi Qiong was defeated?

Seeing her punched to the ground, everyone was dumbfounded and immensely shocked. How was this possible?

Miss Zi Qiong was a prodigy ranked seventy-second on the Demon Prodigy List. Hailing from the Zi Mansion Holy Land, she was a favored daughter of the heavens—noble and imposing. Compared to her, everyone present was a mere bumpkin. Even Ye Chuanfeng of the Supreme Realm’s Ninth Layer and the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign had only cultivated for a few more years than she had. If they were in the same age group, their achievements wouldn’t even measure up to a single one of her fingers.

Although Su Han was strong and had a considerable reputation, he and Zi Qiong were still worlds apart. No one had expected her to be defeated, let alone defeated head-on. It was simply inconceivable!

But facts speak louder than words. Regardless of how shocked or disbelieving everyone was, Zi Qiong being slammed into the earth was an undeniable truth.

”Miss Zi Qiong!” The most anxious of all was Ye Chuanfeng. Zi Qiong was a follower of the Tian Lou Saint and a prodigy of the Zi Mansion Holy Land. Her status was so esteemed that even he wouldn’t dare offend her. Now that Su Han had defeated her with a single punch, if she flew into a rage from the humiliation, his own carefully laid plans would be utterly ruined.

He cursed Su Han in his heart. Damn you, Su Han! Couldn’t you have just let Miss Zi Qiong beat you up to vent her anger? He believed Su Han should have simply taken the beating and allowed Zi Qiong to vent. That way, there might still have been a chance for him to become a follower of the Tian Lou Saint. But now that Su Han had done this, he had completely offended Zi Qiong. She would surely speak ill of Su Han to the Tian Lou Saint, and Ye Chuanfeng’s hopes of becoming a follower were now as remote as ascending to the heavens.

BOOM!

Purple lightning exploded as Zi Qiong’s figure shot up from the rubble, her furious aura roiling and disturbing the heavens and the earth. Her face was pale, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. Her purple hair was disheveled. A deep, fist-shaped indentation was visible on her chest where the blow had landed, breaking her ribs and inflicting serious injuries. However, compared to the spiritual agony of her humiliation, the injuries to her Physical Body were nothing. Her amethyst-like eyes spewed a soul-deep fury, a raging fire that seemed tangible enough to burn the very sky.

”How dare you injure me! You deserve to die!” Her voice, filled with condescending disdain, echoed like a final judgment, as if Su Han were merely an ant she could crush at will. ”You’re just a frog in a well, destined only to look up at me! Today, I will cut off your limbs and turn you into a useless cripple!”

”Electric Mother Physique!” With a long howl, a torrent of Purple Lightning Yin Thunder surged from Zi Qiong’s body. The energy erupted and swiftly wove itself into a Heaven and Earth Physique above her head. This Physique stood atop dark clouds, clad in a robe of flashing lightning. Supremely majestic, it exuded an aura of command over the world. All lightning fell under its dominion; its eyes flickered with a million thunderbolts, and its hands could unleash an endless storm.

Zi Qiong’s Heaven and Earth Physique was indeed modeled after the mythical Electric Mother. This made sense, as mythology held that the Thunder God and Electric Mother ruled over Yang Thunder and Yin Thunder, respectively. Since Purple Lightning Yin Thunder was a form of Yin Thunder, it naturally fell within the Electric Mother’s domain. However, because Zi Qiong had sealed her cultivation, this Electric Mother Physique was somewhat ethereal. The lotus throne beneath it had only a single petal, and she was unable to use any Divine Skills. Even so, the sight left countless onlookers captivated and awestruck. Most Martial Artists condensed their Heaven and Earth Physiques in their own image. By modeling hers after a deity, Zi Qiong’s was naturally far superior in power to an ordinary one.

”Demonic Emperor Physique, emerge!” Su Han did not hold back and rapidly condensed his own Heaven and Earth Physique. A Black Netherworld Flower solidified into a towering, bizarre, and domineering figure wearing the Ghostly Face Mask, surrounded by ten swirling Black Holes.

”Indestructible Thunder!” Zi Qiong poured all her strength into activating her Purple Lightning Imperial Body and channeling her Electric Mother Physique. Instantly, two Thunder Light Mirrors appeared in the Physique’s hands. As they clashed, a thick thunderbolt, roaring like a dragon, shot straight toward Su Han. This Indestructible Thunder was a technique from the Electric Mother Divine Law and was incredibly potent. Although Zi Qiong was only imitating it, the technique, when imbued with her Purple Lightning Yin Thunder, possessed enough power to obliterate cities and nations. It was absolutely terrifying.

”Devour!” Unfortunately for Zi Qiong, this time she faced Su Han. Although only one of his Demonic Emperor Physique’s Black Holes was fully manifested, it was a Dual Black Hole. Its Devouring Force was so formidable that it completely engulfed the Indestructible Thunder, leaving nothing behind. Next, the Demonic Emperor Physique reached out to grab the Electric Mother Physique. Although its other nine Black Holes were merely phantoms and not very powerful, their sheer number, when deployed at once, caused Zi Qiong’s Electric Mother Physique to tremble and show signs of instability.

”Golden Lightning Flash!” While stabilizing her Electric Mother Physique, Zi Qiong attacked again. The two Thunder Light Mirrors suddenly erupted with a blinding light. This was no ordinary lightning; it was a dazzling, scorching golden light so intense that people dared not look directly at it, as if it would blind them. The moment the two beams of golden lightning appeared, many Martial Artists in Qingmo City cried out as an unbearable pain stung their eyes, causing them to shed tears of blood. Even Su Han felt the sharp pain and was forced to shut his eyes.

A perfect opportunity! Seizing the moment, Zi Qiong unleashed the Indestructible Thunder once more. This time, the thunderbolt took the form of a dragon. Though only ten meters long and somewhat indistinct, it carried a trace of Dragon’s Might, making the attack even more terrifying.

CRACK!

The Indestructible Thunder carved an unstoppable path through the air, tearing open a pitch-black spatial rift. Brimming with an aura of desolation and destruction, it slammed fiercely into Su Han. He was sent flying hundreds of meters. However, thanks to Defensive Means like his Dragon Phoenix Protection and Myriad Encompassing Heavenly Attraction, he managed to withstand the blow.

”Devour!” Seizing the brief opening before Zi Qiong could muster her strength, Su Han swiftly counterattacked. The massive hand of the Demonic Emperor shot out and grabbed the Electric Mother Physique as the Dual Black Holes began to rapidly devour it.

The Devouring Force of the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art was incomparably domineering, capable of consuming the heavens themselves—let alone a mere Heaven and Earth Physique. Zi Qiong watched in horror as her Electric Mother Physique rapidly weakened, growing more indistinct by the second as if it would fade into an illusion. She tried everything in her power but was unable to stop the consumption. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, she retracted her Electric Mother Physique. If Su Han devoured it completely, the loss would be unacceptable.

As Zi Qiong retracted her Electric Mother Physique, Su Han’s eyes lit up. Now! He instantly seized the opportunity.

”Origin Technique: Primordial Qi Great Capture Technique!” Activating his Sacred Body, Su Han unleashed his Origin Technique. All kinds of energy converged, boundless and primordial, forming a hundred-meter-large hand that shot out and grabbed Zi Qiong.

Then, like the Buddha subduing the Monkey King, the hand descended from the sky with tremendous force, slamming Zi Qiong viciously into the ground.

Seeing this, everyone’s eyes widened in utter astonishment. ”Miss Zi Qiong has lost again?”
