I, the Villain, Become Invincible the More Descendants I Have

Chapter 46 The Demon Clan SubmitsOutside the exit of the Ten Thousand Dragon Secret Realm, the area was packed with members of the Dragon Race.

The woman at the lead wore a simple white dress, her black hair loosely pinned up. A cinnabar mole rested between her brows, and her features carried the unique charm of a mature woman, yet she exuded an aura that commanded respect without anger. She was none other than Governor Ao Xue, the widow of the former Dragon Race patriarch and the true power-holder of the Dragon Race.

She stood there, watching the entrance of the secret realm crumble, her expression terrifyingly calm. Behind her, the tribesmen were deathly pale, whispering to one another as panic spread.

”My Lady! The Young Master and the Eight Great Elders have been inside for so long, why haven’t they come out yet? The secret realm is about to collapse!” a young Dragon Race clansman said anxiously.

”Yes, My Lady! Should we send more people in to take a look?”

Governor Ao Xue shook her head slightly, her voice cold and clear: ”No need. Long Aotian has been defeated, and the Eight Great Elders are gone.”

”What?!”

Everyone was stunned, unable to believe their ears.

”That’s impossible! The Young Master is a once-in-a-century genius of the Dragon Race, and with the Eight Great Elders assisting him, how could he lose!”

Just then, a golden light suddenly exploded from the entrance of the secret realm.

Emperor Cao Xukun walked out slowly with one hand in his pocket. There were a few specks of blood on his black dragon robe, but he didn’t look disheveled at all; instead, it added a touch of murderous aura. Behind him followed dense crowds of Dragon Race soldiers, all of them looking dejected.

The entire scene went silent instantly.

All the Dragon Race members widened their eyes, staring at this unbelievable sight.

Emperor Cao Xukun raised his eyes and scanned the area, his gaze finally landing on Governor Ao Xue.

[Ding! Golden Luck female detected: Governor Ao Xue]

[Identity: Widow of the former Dragon Race patriarch, actual power-holder of the Dragon Race]

[Favorability: 5 (Awe)]

[Conquest Difficulty: ★★★★☆]

[Special Bonus: Subjugating her grants the blessing of the entire Dragon Race’s luck, and any offspring born will possess the Golden Luck Dragon Race bloodline!]

”Damn, she’s a top-tier beauty.” Emperor Cao Xukun felt secretly pleased, ”That kid Long Aotian is truly my lucky star, leaving me such a great beauty.”

Governor Ao Xue was also sizing up Emperor Cao Xukun.

She had long heard of this Emperor Xuan who had appeared out of nowhere—he had crippled Alliance Leader Wang Teng with a single spear, pacified the Western Regions in three days, founded a nation and ascended the throne to gather dragon veins, and now, he had single-handedly broken into the Ten Thousand Dragon Secret Realm and killed Long Aotian and the Eight Great Elders.

Seeing him today, he was indeed worthy of his reputation. That aura of looking down on the world was certainly not something that belonged to a pond fish.

She took a deep breath, stepped forward, and bowed gracefully to Emperor Cao Xukun: ”Governor Ao Xue of the Dragon Race pays her respects to His Majesty, Emperor Xuan.”

This bow caused an uproar among all the Dragon Race members.

”My Lady! Why are you bowing to him!”

”He killed the Young Master and the Elders! He is our enemy!”

A few radical young clansmen drew their weapons, about to rush forward, but were scolded back by a single look from Governor Ao Xue.

”Stop!” Governor Ao Xue’s voice was not loud, but it carried unquestionable majesty, ”Long Aotian overestimated himself and provoked His Majesty, Emperor Xuan. It is entirely his own fault that he ended up like this.”

She turned to look at Emperor Cao Xukun, her tone calm but firm: ”His Majesty, Emperor Xuan, Long Aotian is dead, and the Dragon Race no longer has any intention of resisting. I, Governor Ao Xue, am willing to lead all the Dragon Race clansmen to submit to the Great Xuan Dynasty. I only ask that Your Majesty show mercy, spare the lives of the Dragon Race, and preserve our bloodline.”

”Oh? So sensible?” Emperor Cao Xukun raised an eyebrow, a bit surprised. He had thought it would take some effort, but he hadn’t expected Governor Ao Xue to be so decisive.

”Those who are sensible are heroes,” Governor Ao Xue said indifferently, ”The Dragon Race can no longer afford to be tossed about. Rather than the entire race being wiped out, it is better to submit to Great Xuan and exchange it for a path to survival. As long as Your Majesty can ensure the safety of the Dragon Race, I, Governor Ao Xue, am willing to work like a dog or horse, and will go through fire and water without hesitation.”

”My Lady! You cannot!” A white-haired elder rushed out and knelt before Governor Ao Xue, ”Our Dragon Race has been passed down for ten thousand years; how can we bow to a human! This old subject is willing to fight to the death! Even if I die, I must protect the dignity of the Dragon Race!”

”Dignity?” Emperor Cao Xukun sneered and flicked his finger.

A black spiritual energy shot out, instantly blowing the giant rock beside the elder into powder.

”In the face of absolute strength, dignity is worthless.” Emperor Cao Xukun’s eyes were cold as he swept them across all the Dragon Race members, ”Either surrender or die. I will give you three seconds to consider.”

”Three.”

”Two.”

”We are willing to surrender!”

Before Emperor Cao Xukun could count to one, all the Dragon Race members knelt down in unison, not daring to lift their heads.

The elder who had just been shouting about fighting to the death also shrank back, not daring to speak again.

Just kidding, Long Aotian and the Eight Great Elders had been killed in seconds; wouldn’t they just be throwing their lives away if they went up? It’s better to live than to die; surrendering was better than the entire race being wiped out.

Governor Ao Xue looked at this scene, sighed, and the last trace of unwillingness in her heart vanished.

She bowed again to Emperor Cao Xukun: ”Thank you, Your Majesty, Emperor Xuan, for your mercy. From now on, the entire Dragon Race will follow the lead of His Majesty, Emperor Xuan.”

[Ding! Successfully subjugated the entire Dragon Race!]

[Reward: Blessing of the entire Dragon Race’s luck!]

Rich Dragon Race luck poured into his body continuously, slowly nourishing his dantian and meridians. The spiritual energy of his Early-Stage Spirit Transformation realm grew even thicker and more refined. Emperor Cao Xukun flicked his fingertips, feeling the surging foundation within his body, and nodded with satisfaction: ”Very good. Since you have submitted to me, I naturally will not treat you unfairly.”

”I hereby announce the abolition of all slavery within the Dragon Race. Dragon Race members shall enjoy the same rights as the citizens of Great Xuan. The existing structure of the Dragon Race will be retained, the Demon Race Province will be established, and I appoint Governor Ao Xue as the Governor of the province, in charge of all affairs of the Demon Race.”

”Thank you, Your Majesty, Emperor Xuan!” Governor Ao Xue was overjoyed and quickly thanked him.

She had thought that at most she could only save the lives of her clansmen; she hadn’t expected Emperor Cao Xukun to actually let her be in charge of the Demon Race. This was truly an unexpected delight.

Emperor Cao Xukun looked at her, a wicked smile curling the corner of his mouth: ”However, Governor Ao Xue, since you have submitted to me, you must show some sincerity.”

Governor Ao Xue was stunned: ”I do not know what sincerity Your Majesty wants? As long as the Dragon Race has it, Your Majesty may ask for it.”

”What I want, you have.” Emperor Cao Xukun leaned closer to her, lowered his voice, and spoke in a tone that only the two of them could hear, ”I heard that the former patriarch passed away many years ago, and Lady Ao Xue has been living alone? Why not stay by my side from now on.”

Governor Ao Xue’s face turned red instantly, even her earlobes turning pink. She bit her lip, nodded slightly, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s hum: ”It is all up to Your Majesty’s arrangements.”

Emperor Cao Xukun laughed loudly, in a great mood.

He turned to all the Dragon Race members and shouted: ”From today on, the Dragon Race is a part of Great Xuan! Follow me, Emperor Cao Xukun, and there will be meat to eat, wine to drink, and cultivation resources to take! Anyone who dares to bully you is going against me, Emperor Cao Xukun!”

”Long live Emperor Xuan! Long live Great Xuan!”

All the Dragon Race members cheered, their voices resounding through the clouds.

The original panic and resentment instantly turned into support and worship.

When Li Tieniu arrived with the army, he happened to see this scene, his jaw almost dropping in shock.

”My god! Emperor Xuan is too awesome! He even subdued the entire Dragon Race!”

”That goes without saying.” The soldier next to him said proudly, ”Our Emperor Xuan is destined by heaven. Let alone the Dragon Race, in the future, the entire Demon Race, the entire Mortal Realm, will all belong to our Great Xuan!”

The army marched majestically in the direction of Luoyang.
