Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

Chapter 78
This is the consequence of disturbing the Demon Lord and Madam!

Late at Night

On the surface, Nanli City was peaceful and calm, filled with the bustling sounds of music and celebration. However, beneath the surface, undercurrents surged, and murderous intent lurked!

The disciples of the Sacred Lotus Sect, scattered throughout the city, began to converge on Ning Yechen’s house and the Qi family residence, their eyes gleaming with murderous intent!

Yet, as they passed through the crowded streets, shadows suddenly appeared beneath the feet of some Sacred Lotus Sect disciples, or shadowy figures emerged from the dark alleys, pulling them into the darkness!

Those disciples dragged into the shadows didn’t even know what had happened. They vanished from the world without uttering a single sound.

Others, while passing through deserted, dark alleys, were suddenly overtaken by shadowy figures who swiftly sliced their throats!

They didn’t even get a clear look at their attackers before their eyes widened in shock, and they collapsed to the ground!

Their bodies were then dragged into the darkness, the bloodstains cleaned up, leaving no trace of what had transpired.

Some Sacred Lotus Sect disciples gradually sensed something was amiss.

They had been walking together in a group of over ten, but as they walked, they turned back to find themselves alone!

Where did everyone go…?

The lone Sacred Lotus Sect disciple stood there in a daze, his eyes filled with fear, frantically looking around.

In the next second, a shadow beneath his feet swiftly pulled him away.

The passersby beside him didn’t even notice his disappearance.

The entire street remained bustling and lively…

Another group of Sacred Lotus Sect disciples, flying through the air, suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Before them, a breathtakingly beautiful young woman with fiery red hair and heterochromatic eyes, one red and one blue, stood suspended in the air.

“Who are you?”

The leading elder of the Sacred Lotus Sect shouted at Yan Lili, demanding an answer.

A playful smile curved Yan Lili’s lips.

“Who I am doesn’t matter. What matters is~”

“You’re all about to become corpses~”

The Sacred Lotus Sect elder’s expression shifted to shock, followed by a furious outburst, “Insolent!”

“In the Southern Prefecture today, no one dares to speak to the Sacred Lotus Sect in such a manner!”

“Kill her!”

With a single command, dozens of disciples behind the Sacred Lotus Sect elder charged towards Yan Lili.

Yan Lili stood unmoving, lightly snapping her fingers.

In an instant, all the Sacred Lotus Sect disciples, including the elder, burst into flames!

They didn’t even have time to let out a scream before their bodies and souls were incinerated, leaving behind only piles of white bones!

With her abilities, she could easily reduce these Sacred Lotus Sect members to ashes, leaving nothing behind.

But she deliberately controlled the flames, choosing to burn them into skeletons.

Collecting and appreciating skeletons was one of her few hobbies.

It had been a while since she last practiced her craft, and thankfully, her skill in refining skeletons hadn’t diminished.

Although these dozens of skeletons were completely substandard, the worst of the worst, they could still barely be used to add to her bone mountain.

It was a pity that the Left Guardian had ordered them not to cause too much commotion; otherwise, she would have loved to savor the screams of these people as they were slowly burned alive.

That would have been the most beautiful music~!

……

Meanwhile, near Ning Yechen’s courtyard.

The Sacred Lotus Sect members who had arrived earlier were lurking around the courtyard, waiting for the others to join them.

However, even after the planned time had passed, there was still no sign of the others.

The leading elder couldn’t help but frown deeply and snapped at a disciple beside him, “Didn’t you just say the others were already on their way here?”

“It’s been so long, where are they?!”

“I-I don’t know…”

The disciple replied, trembling.

He had indeed received a message earlier, stating that the others would be arriving soon to join the operation.

Who knew that after so long, they were still nowhere to be seen…

“This is a direct order from the Sect Leader. How dare you be so negligent in such an important matter!”

“After this is done, I will not let you off lightly!”

“Hurry up and urge them to come here and assemble!”

The elder barked at the disciple beside him.

“Yes…!”

The disciple responded and turned to leave to find the others. But just then, a cold voice echoed from the dark alley behind them.

“No need, I’ve brought them here for you.”

“Who’s there?!”

The leading elder was startled. He whipped his head around, his face filled with shock and vigilance.

Despite his cultivation at the peak of the Heaven Human Realm, he hadn’t even sensed anyone approaching from behind!

Ye Tianshen slowly emerged from the darkness, carrying several severed heads in his hand. He gazed at the Sacred Lotus Sect members with an icy expression.

With a flick of his wrist, he tossed the heads at their feet.

The Sacred Lotus Sect members looked down and their expressions changed drastically in fear.

Those severed heads belonged to the very people they had been waiting for!

Each one of them was an elder with Heaven Human Realm cultivation!

Yet they had died so silently!

Who was this person?!

The leading elder’s face was filled with terror. The arrogance from earlier was completely gone, and he asked in a trembling voice, “Who… Who are you?!”

“Why are you attacking my Sacred Lotus Sect?!”

“You have offended someone you shouldn’t have.”

Ye Tianshen took a step forward, instantly appearing in front of them. He slowly raised his palm, aiming it at the group, his gaze as cold as if he were looking at a group of corpses!

The Sacred Lotus Sect elder was filled with fear, wanting to escape, but found himself paralyzed with terror, unable to move!

Carefully recalling Ye Tianshen’s words in his mind, the elder seemed to realize something, and his fear intensified.

The person this man referred to as “someone you shouldn’t have offended,” could it be this family…!

Did the Sect Leader even understand who they had provoked…!

At this moment, the Sacred Lotus Sect elder felt utter despair, wanting nothing more than to question Sect Leader Song Yan about who she had ordered them to attack…

Why provoke such a person…

This was an existence the Sacred Lotus Sect simply couldn’t afford to offend!

“Obliterate.”

Ye Tianshen said indifferently to the Sacred Lotus Sect members.

“Wai-Wait a…”

Before the elder could even finish his attempt to explain the misunderstanding, he and the dozen or so disciples were all engulfed by a jet-black beam of light!

A dark gleam flashed in the dark alley.

When the light faded, the scene was spotless, leaving no trace behind.

“Daring to lay a hand on the Demon Lord, Madam, and the Little Princess, letting you die so easily is a great mercy.”

Ye Tianshen said calmly into the void.

If it weren’t for not wanting to disturb the Demon Lord, he would never have let these ants die so peacefully!

……

On the outskirts of Nanli City

Hundreds of Sacred Lotus Sect disciples were flying through the sky, heading towards Nanli City.

They were all elite disciples of the Sacred Lotus Sect, who had been on standby outside the city.

As soon as they received Song Yan’s order to enter the city and slaughter the Qi family, they immediately set off.

However, on their path, You Lian was already waiting on the ground.

Beside her were a few Shadow Guard attendants.

“You don’t need to intervene.”

You Lian said to the Shadow Guards beside her, then slowly placed her hand on the long sword at her waist.

The hundreds of Sacred Lotus Sect disciples in the sky looked at You Lian with confusion and vigilance.

A cold glint flashed in You Lian’s eyes. She slightly unsheathed her sword, and without any visible movement, thousands of silver lights flashed past the Sacred Lotus Sect members!

In the next second, all the hundreds of Sacred Lotus Sect disciples in the sky were dismembered!

Blood and severed limbs rained down from the sky like a gruesome spectacle!

This was the consequence of disturbing the Demon Lord and Madam!
