Chapter 235 Why Can't You Marry Him?
Lu Chengfeng looked at Yi Hongchen, who was kneeling in front of him with his buttocks raised high. With an indifferent expression, he casually shot out a ray of golden light. The golden light arrived in an instant and turned into flames in the blink of an eye.
"Ah..." Yi Hongchen screamed hysterically, completely stunned. She never imagined that Lu Chengfeng would suddenly kill her when she had already surrendered so submissively.
"No... I can do anything you want me to do..."
As she wailed miserably, her human form completely disintegrated and turned into a ball of hazy light, tumbling in the flames.
Lu Chengfeng said nothing, just watched coldly.
This continued for more than half an hour, and Yi Hongchen's soul completely disappeared in the golden flames. His spirit was scattered and he died completely.
In Lu Chengfeng's spiritual sea of consciousness, a starlight first appeared, as if an ancient star had fallen from the sky. Then the light quickly spread and turned into a bright moon in the blink of an eye.
I saw Yi Hongchen's somewhat illusory figure walking out from the bright moon.
Her expression was somewhat sad and complicated. She looked at the sun emitting brilliant golden light in the center of the dark sea of consciousness and knelt down respectfully, "Slave, I greet the master."
The Great Sun Spirit shone brightly and uttered a majestic voice, "You also have the skills of the Thousand-Handed Thousand-Eyed Demon Spirit Divine Transformation Sutra. From today on, you will start to focus on this volume of skills."
"Yes, master." Yi Hongchen prostrated himself and agreed respectfully.
After becoming the guardian spirit, although she possessed all her past memories, personality and magical powers, she became Lu Chengfeng's most loyal servant.
Lu Chengfeng held a map of mountains, rivers, and the country in his hand. The sun rose and fell in his pupils, shining with dazzling golden light, as if he was peeking at the passage of time.
After a moment, he took out a golden talisman, on which densely packed runes intertwined into chains, eventually condensing into a black short-haired fine dog.
This item is Chongshan’s slave contract. This slave contract itself is more precious than an immortal weapon and was left by an ancient powerful being.
He used this item to communicate with Chongshan. After about an hour, Chongshan, who was originally overseas, came to him.
"Master, I finally found you..." Chongshan's eyes were a little dark, and his teeth were exposed when he smiled, which looked a little ferocious. "Master, now the time we agreed on is almost up, shouldn't you return the slave contract to me?"
He had been hunted by Zhu Yuxian over the years, and had lost most of his clones, but he had regained some of his sanity and clarity, and therefore became more and more eager to get his slave contract back.
He didn't know about the great battle between Yi Hongchen and Lu Chengfeng in the royal capital, and he didn't know that the Nine-Sky Demon Subduing Venerable and Yi Hongchen had all died overseas, so he dared to show his fangs to Lu Chengfeng.
Lu Chengfeng had no intention of going back on his word. Although Chongshan and he were using each other, it was undeniable that this man had indeed helped him a lot.
If it weren't for Chongshan, all his wives and concubines would probably have died, and those people from the Yuncang Sword Sect would not have had a good ending either.
He looked at the old servant in front of him with a faint smile on his face, "The reason I called you here is to return the slave contract to you."
As soon as these words were spoken, hundreds of pupils and dozens of mouths suddenly appeared on Chongshan's body, roaring and screaming madly.
"Give it to me quickly, give it to me quickly..."
"Hand over the slave contract to me now."
"Give it to me, or I'll tear you apart alive."
"I want I want!"
Although Lu Chengfeng had seen such a scene more than once, he still felt his scalp tingling. This was because Chongshan had lost many of his clones, otherwise the scene would have been even more terrifying.
"Chongshan, it's fate that we met. I can't bear to see you go astray and die."
"So I'm giving you a suggestion. If you get the slave contract, don't tear it up. Use your main soul to refine the contract and completely control the other souls. Maybe you can take a different path."
"This..." Chongshan's expression changed rapidly when he heard this. All his eyeballs were rolling around and his mouths were shouting eagerly.
"I am the main soul, give the contract to me."
"I am the one, all of you get out of my way."
"No one is allowed to snatch it from me, or I will kill you..."
"Get out of here, all of you!"
In just one sentence, Chongshan's many souls began to split and fight each other. All the pupils were focused on his head, in front of his face, behind his head, and on top of his head.
Lu Chengfeng shook his head and threw the golden talisman away. "What the final result will be depends on your luck."
hum!
Chongshan's body suddenly had hundreds of arms, and even illusory human figures were about to rush out of his body.
However, it seemed that someone and chains were tightly binding and suppressing those souls, making it impossible for them to truly escape from the body.
Roar!
With a loud roar, Chongshan jumped up from the air like a dog, bit the slave with his teeth, and swallowed it in one gulp.
His expression was extremely ferocious and crazy, but he barely maintained a trace of rationality and said to Lu Chengfeng: "If I don't die, I will definitely thank you for your kindness today in the future."
Before he could finish his words, his mouth exploded. A dozen fists were pounding on it frantically. All the teeth in his mouth were knocked out. It was bloody and looked extremely tragic.
"Die, die, die!"
"Spit it out, spit it out quickly!"
"Nuchi is mine."
"If you don't hand it over, I'll kill you."
Chongshan's figure stumbled, and his hundreds of arms were attacking each other, some were beating their own bodies or heads, and even the souls were biting each other.
In the blink of an eye, his entire body was covered in blood, his bones, flesh and muscles were torn apart, and even his internal organs were clearly visible. He looked extremely tragic.
Lu Chengfeng ignored him and let him leave.
Chongshan's situation is extremely rare. If it weren't for Nuqi's suppression, he would never have been able to cultivate so many souls and avatars, let alone remain rational in such a situation. He would have gone insane and died long ago.
Lu Chengfeng did not hesitate to waste time and energy to make a deduction for it. The only hope was to refine the slave contract with the main soul and subdue all other souls. Perhaps he could find an unprecedented path.
But what the final outcome will be depends on him alone; no external force can help him.
"I hope you can succeed. If you succeed, you can go to Shenzhou in the future and perhaps make a name for yourself with me."
Lu Chengfeng was bound to leave Chi County, even though he seemed to be invincible in the Thirteen States of Chi County, and could be the king and dominate the country, with beautiful women in his arms.
But in fact, he has now entered the countdown of his life. Even if Chu Tiange does not practice, his strength will continue to grow and transform. What's more, this person has previously taken away the talisman of the Peacock King. If he wants to reach the realm of true immortal, there is no bottleneck at all.
Once this person ascends to heaven and awakens some of his memories of his past life, he will be able to use the power of the Great Emperor's Dharma Image. Killing him will be as easy as killing an ant.
"The Great Emperor!" Lu Chengfeng shook his head. Not everyone can be called the Great Emperor.
The Heavenly Lord who was able to create the world has already reached the pinnacle of all cultivation. Only when one takes another half step to the end of cultivation can one be called an emperor. That kind of existence is already so great that it is difficult to understand.
Just like the Empress of the Divine Court, who suppressed the Heavenly Way and enslaved all the gods with her own power, this kind of incredible magical power was so incredible that even the Immortal King and the Heavenly Lord could only bow their heads in submission and sigh in despair.
A trace of imperial power could suppress his mental will and crush his soul. The gap between the two sides was too huge, and there was no possibility of any resistance at all.
"Although I threatened him with his biological mother, once Chu Tiange awakens his past life memories, he will definitely not be bound by such means."
Lu Chengfeng had seen a similar scene in his memory of the next 100,000 years. Someone threatened Chu Tiange's mother and confidante, but Chu Tiange used some means to kill them all.
Finally, after his cultivation is perfected, he resurrected his biological mother and confidante from the past time and space.
"So, threats are useless."
"Or rather, it only works temporarily."
Lu Chengfeng's eyes flickered. "If we take away the Peacock King's talisman and trap him in Chi County, perhaps we can slow down his promotion to a True Immortal."
"Of course, it is impossible to prevent him from being promoted by these means. The power of that fishing rod is extremely strange. Maybe it can be used to fish for the talisman from other places."
"However, even if I can temporarily slow down his promotion, it is very important to me."
After sorting out his thoughts, Lu Chengfeng moved his mind and his body disappeared from the spot.
When he appeared again, he had already arrived at Fulong Cave Heaven.
Fulong Cave, on the Five Elements Mountain.
Lu Chengfeng's wives and concubines are now gathered here. This mountain range is extremely vast. It was originally a huge mountain range formed by the five inner peaks of the Yuncang Sword Sect.
He used his magical powers to build many palaces on the mountain, which were naturally large enough for his wives and concubines to live in.
Originally, those who were not celestial beings could not survive in the palace for long, but after Lu Chengfeng had sex with those women, he taught them the "Sun and Moon Repairing the Sky Sutra", which made their souls have a subtle connection with Lu Chengfeng.
Therefore, a large part of the pressure that the cave heaven exerted on the souls of mortals was shared by Lu Chengfeng.
After Lu Chengfeng returned to the cave, he landed in front of a palace. On the plaque of this palace were three big characters "Tianhe Palace". It was a palace built by Lu Chengfeng specifically for Chu Zhihe.
Lu Chengfeng landed outside the hall, but was not in a hurry to go in. He had absolute control over the entire cave. Even though he was just outside the door, the people inside did not notice his arrival.
At this time, Chu Zhihe and Chu Tiange's mother and son seemed to have just had a big fight, and their expressions were not very good.
Chu Tiange, in particular, was shaking with anger. If he had not carefully checked his mother's soul to make sure that she was not bewitched by any magic, he would have thought that his mother had been plotted against.
He never expected that his mother was like someone who had taken a love potion, and was completely devoted to that beast Lu Chengfeng, and even really wanted to be with him.
"I know you don't like him, and you even think it's a shame for you if I'm with him." Chu Zhihe looked a little resentful, his eyes were red, and tears kept flowing.
"But you know what? I raised you all by myself. Even though you have a father in name, it's no different than not having one."
"For so many years, I have placed all my hopes on you and have never experienced any feelings. Even if Zhang Zhiqing has treated me badly, I have never thought of betraying him."
"I just want to raise you up and give you a good future. Then I will be willing to die."
"But you were suppressed by the ancestors."
Chu Zhihe burst into tears, "You know what? This is like the sky is falling for me. You are my life!"
"I would rather use my life to get you out."
"But the old lady disagreed. I tried everything I could think of, even risking my life, but there was no way to save you."
"Tell me, what should I do?"
Chu Tiange felt heartbroken when he heard this, he knew that his mother was the only person in the world who treated him wholeheartedly. It was his mother who raised him up over the years, it was his mother who paved the way for him in the sect, and it was his mother who collected all the resources for his cultivation.
Over the years, his mother has always been selfless in her devotion to him without making any demands on him.
When he was suppressed in the Qianyuan Golden Cauldron, although he had a trump card to protect himself, he could not tell his mother. After all, Yi Hongchen was watching him all the time.
But I didn't expect that the situation would end up like this.
"In order to save you, I tried every possible way, but it was of no use. Just when I was almost in despair, Lu Chengfeng appeared." Chu Zhihe's originally painful voice suddenly became a little gentler.
"He is willing to offend a true immortal to rescue you."
"I didn't believe him at first. I just thought he must have some kind of calculation, wanting to use me, or even wanting to harm you."
"But later on, the old ancestor pressed me harder and harder, and I had no choice but to try to negotiate with him."
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it..."
Chu Zhihe showed a barely perceptible shy look on his face. "He, he never made any excessive demands from the beginning to the end. He just wanted, wanted me..."
"Enough!" Chu Tiange's face turned extremely pale, his face turned red, his neck became thick, and veins bulged on his arms. Hearing his mother talking about another young man with such a shy look made him feel extremely ashamed and painful.
"Listen to me, okay?" Chu Zhihe looked into his son's eyes and said in a humble and pleading tone, "I don't ask you to understand me, but I want you to know all the causes and consequences. I don't want there to be so many misunderstandings between us mother and son."
Chu Tiange gritted his teeth tightly, his nails dug deeply into the flesh, and some blood spread.
Chu Zhihe saw that he was silent and sighed deeply, "I really didn't have any other options at that time. Besides, I thought, I'm just an old woman of such an old age, and I'm still a virgin, and I've given birth to a child."
"What good can a man like me do to him?"
"With his strength, what kind of good woman can't he get in the world? What am I?"
"Although he humiliated me and used me in the past by pretending to be Yi Wushuang, in the final analysis, we were on different sides at that time and we were enemies, so it was not excessive to use despicable means."
"Now he has offered to help me rescue you, and the only condition is that he wants me." Chu Zhihe lowered her head slightly, not looking at her son, and said with a sad voice: "I was originally... " Saying those shameful words in front of her own son made her feel almost like being tortured to death, but she still said it.
"I was originally possessed by him. If I can save you, it won't be a big deal even if I give you to him. Anyway, I am no longer a chaste woman."
"So, I agreed to his request."
Chu Tiange felt that everything in front of his eyes was going black, as if someone had hit his head hard with a huge hammer, or as if someone had stabbed his heart hard with an iron spear. The incomparable feeling of pain almost suffocated him.
He listened to his mother's words that were disgusting to the ears, words that almost drove him crazy, and he wished he could go completely insane and tear Lu Chengfeng into pieces immediately.
"Alas, although I promised him, I didn't hold out much hope." Chu Zhihe's voice was full of bitterness. "After all, the ancestor is a true immortal. It's harder than ascending to heaven to rescue you from under the nose of a true immortal."
"But I didn't expect that he would actually go to save you."
"And there is no conspiracy or any additional conditions..."
Chu Zhihe's tone became somewhat gentle and firm, "For my sake, he really did not hesitate to make the whole world his enemy, to fight a true immortal, to cause a big disturbance in the capital, to overthrow the golden tripod, and to rescue you."
"I will never be able to repay such a kindness in my lifetime."
"For this reason alone, I should keep my promise."
"You too, he saved your life. I know you feel aggrieved and ashamed. I don't ask you to be grateful to him, I just hope you can stop hating him."
"I will repay the kindness he showed to my son and me..."
"You're going to pay it back?" Chu Tiange's eyes turned blood red, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth. "What are you going to use to pay it back? Your own body? Don't you think you're a despicable person?"
He roared hysterically, his words filled with contempt, pain and anger. If the person in front of him was not his biological mother, he would have wanted to kill this woman.
But it was precisely because this woman was his mother that he felt so painful and tortured.
Chu Zhihe was scolded by her son in such a tone that her whole body trembled slightly. Over the years, everything she had done was for her son.
She was even willing to risk her life for her son.
What does etiquette and integrity matter?
But what he got in the end was his son's hideous face.
She felt unspeakable sadness and grief in her heart.
"How can I face other people when you're like this? How can I face the world with a lowly mother like you? If you do this, you might as well die..." Chu Tiange vented his emotions madly.
When the word "death" was uttered, Chu Zhihe was completely stunned. Even her tears stopped. Her body was completely stiff and she could no longer hear anything.
"Then you might as well die..."
"Then you might as well die..."
"Why do not you go to hell?"
These words kept echoing in her mind, and she felt her heart go cold. She didn't know when she raised her head and looked at her son, who made her feel a little strange.
She had never lived for herself in her life, especially after she had a son, she poured everything, including her own feelings, into this little life.
But now he heard these words.
Chu Zhihe felt as if her heart was dead. She thought silently, "What would happen even if I really was with him?"
"He is a very good man, handsome, strong, funny and humorous. He is extremely greedy for me in bed, can give me a good feeling, can take care of my feelings, and can give me support."
"Why can't I marry him?"
"Now I am just a widow. He is a child of destiny who can compete with the True Immortals. He also saved my life. Why can't I be with him?"
"Is it just because being with him makes you feel ashamed?"
"Don't I deserve happiness?"
"Your reputation is more important than my mother's happiness. You can even let me die for your own reputation..."
"hehe!"
Chu Zhihe just thought about it silently but didn't say it out loud. She didn't even have the energy or the idea to argue with her son. She felt exhausted all over and couldn't help wanting to find a shoulder to lean on.
As she was thinking this, she suddenly felt her body being embraced by a broad and strong embrace. Then her body was lifted up and was held horizontally by the man around the waist.
The scent of the man was so familiar. Whenever she smelled it in the past, she would always curse with shame and pain, but now she couldn't help but shrink her body and move closer to him.
No matter what, she just wanted to lean back quietly for a while. She was so tired!
"How dare you!" Lu Chengfeng moved his body and appeared behind Chu Zhihe, hugging the woman tightly.
Seeing the tiredness and haggardness on her face, he felt a little bit reluctant and sighed in his heart. Chu Zhihe always thought that he had not used her, but Lu Chengfeng knew very well in his heart that he had no feelings for this woman from beginning to end, and was completely using her.
Although he did not regret deceiving a woman into this state and causing her to end up like this, he also felt an indescribable pity.
He held Chu Zhihe in his arms and watched her close her eyes exhausted.
"Be good, have a good sleep, and let me take care of the rest."
Lu Chengfeng spoke softly in her ear, and then blocked out all the outside sounds for her, allowing her to sleep peacefully in his arms.
“Lu Chengfeng!!!” Chu Tiange growled through gnashing teeth: “Put my mother down.”
Lu Chengfeng looked at him with a bit of indifference: "Although you are her son, it is her freedom to be with whomever she wants. She has the right to pursue her own happiness, and you are not qualified to interfere."
"Shut up." Chu Tiange roared word by word, his eyes full of blood, "No matter who she is with, she can't be with you."
Lu Chengfeng sneered, "Is it because I am about the same age as you that your self-esteem is frustrated?"
"You know best how much your mother has suffered and how much she has sacrificed for you over the years."
"When you were imprisoned in the Qianyuan Golden Cauldron, do you know how anxious she was?"
"She kowtowed to Yi Mingshu for help for you, and she broke her head before Yi Hongchen for you. She kowtowed and begged for help, disregarding her dignity and pride as an elder. Who did she do this for?"
"How dare you tell her to die? Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
"This is a matter between my mother and me. It's none of your business as an outsider to interfere." Chu Tiange was deeply hurt by Lu Chengfeng's words and screamed in shame and anger.
He knew that what the other party said made sense. He even had memories of his past life. In that world of the Dharma Ending Age, it was very common for old wives to marry young husbands.
Everyone has the freedom to pursue love and marriage.
Logically speaking, no matter who his mother is with, he may be unhappy or not accept it, but he has no right to stop it or blame her.
However, now he has traveled through time and space and become a high and mighty son of destiny, a demon with a bright future, and he also has a golden finger. Sooner or later, he will become a great existence that everyone in the world will bow to.
He could not accept that his mother was with a man who was almost his age. This would be a stain and shame that he would never be able to erase.
He couldn't accept it!
"Outsider?" Lu Chengfeng snorted coldly, "It was me, an outsider, who saved you from the Qianyuan Golden Cauldron. It was me, an outsider, who made your mother no longer have to live in fear, kowtow to others, or suffer humiliation."
"What about you? What qualifications do you have to say such things?"
"In my opinion, you are the least qualified."
"You are the one who caused your mother to end up like this."
"I don't need you to save me at all. I don't need your hypocrisy." Chu Tiange felt a splitting headache and became increasingly impatient. Murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
"Whether you need my help or not, the fact is this. So, you can't argue with me and you're at a loss for words, so you want to attack me?" Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but sneered, "People like you are narrow-minded, conceited, and can't stand being wronged or humiliated. If it weren't for..."
He paused and added in his mind, "If you are not the reincarnation of the Great Emperor, what qualifications do you have to fight me? I would have killed you long ago."
Chu Tiange thought he was some kind of time traveler. In fact, his so-called memories of past lives seemed real and illusory. They could be said to be the experience of his true body reincarnating in the fairyland he opened up.
To some extent, it can be regarded as the memory of the previous life, but his real background and origin are not that of a time traveler, but the reincarnation of a great emperor.
Even the world in his memory of his previous life was just a corner of the fairyland opened up by the great emperor.
"Get out of here!" Lu Chengfeng snorted coldly, and a ray of five-colored light descended from the sky, instantly covering Chu Tiange's body.
The next moment, Chu Tiange's body disappeared and was expelled from Fulong Cave Heaven.
Lu Chengfeng held Chu Zhihe in his arms and sighed slightly. He had originally wanted to use Chu Zhihe to threaten Chu Tiange and force him to hand over the Peacock King's talisman.
But now he was a little hesitant. The woman in his arms had tear marks on her face, and she looked haggard and tired, but she fell asleep peacefully in his arms.
If he used Chu Zhihe as a threat to exchange for the Peacock King's talisman, Lu Chengfeng felt that Chu Tiange would definitely agree, and it would even be exactly what he wanted. The last thing he wanted to see was his mother being deceived and insulted by a pretty boy.
But if I do this, I will inevitably lose Chu Zhihe.
Although, he could make this woman his guardian spirit as well, so that she would still be loyal to him wholeheartedly.
But this... is still a little different!
"What is the purpose of my practicing magic and supernatural powers all the way here?" Lu Chengfeng looked at Chu Zhihe who was sleeping peacefully in his arms and breathing evenly, and his heart gradually calmed down.
"Isn't the existence of magic and supernatural powers to give oneself the strength to choose the life one wants to live?"
"What's the point of blindly pursuing strength?"
"Mana and magical powers allow you to have more choices and live a better life."
"And now..."
He looked down at the woman in his arms. She was a little old, but her skin was still delicate and her figure was good. But perhaps because she was too tired, there were a few faint wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
Lu Chengfeng felt that he was really attracted to this woman. Maybe it wasn't love, but he did have a slight liking for her.
"I have cultivated to my current strength and status. If I still need to use women to exchange for external things, it would be too sad."
Lu Chengfeng held Chu Zhihe and sat down on the bed in the palace. When he wanted to put the woman down, Chu Zhihe was still tightly grasping his sleeves and clothes on her chest in her sleep.
"Silly woman, you didn't even know you were sold." He freed his right hand and gently touched the woman's cheek, "I've decided, I want you."
After making this decision, Lu Chengfeng could feel that his whole mind became relaxed and refreshed, his mental will seemed to be stronger, and even his lust faded a lot.
To the secluded realm, he took a big step forward silently.
"Although the Peacock King's Talisman is a rare treasure, it is nothing compared to my own peace of mind."
“Even if he took away Chu Tiange’s Peacock King Talisman, he could still fish for other treasures to take that step.”
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Lu Chengfeng's mind. He smiled slightly, then hugged Chu Zhihe and lay on the couch.
"Woman, you should be so proud now. I just wanted to use you as a plaything, but I didn't expect you to really get into my heart."
He gently hugged the woman tighter, then relaxed and fell asleep.
He didn't know how long it had been since he had a good rest. Now that the enemy was gone, all the fatigue and pressure accumulated in his heart were released at this moment.
……
After Chu Tiange was expelled from the cave, his face became extremely ferocious, "Lu Chengfeng, you dare... my mother, I will make you die, I will cut you into pieces, I will make you live a life worse than death."
"You and I will fight to the death!"
In his soul, the talisman of the Peacock King emitted a five-colored halo, vaguely pointing to a mysterious place.
"Wait for me. When I get this opportunity, I will make you regret everything you did today."
He gritted his teeth and poured all his magic power into the talisman. Then a five-colored divine light swept up his body and he disappeared in an instant.
