Investment Return System, Start by taking Demon Empress as a Disciple

Chapter 143: Accident



Chapter 143: Accident

Chen Daoxuan had barely recovered from the sudden joy of receiving five hundred thousand system points. Then, he heard the second notification chime.

[Host's Senior Disciple, Leng Yanran, has killed an enemy at the Fourth Layer of Void Refining Realm. Reward: Four Hundred Thousand System Points.]

"Wow... Yanran must be on a killing spree. It's only been a short while, and she's earned another four hundred thousand system points? This sudden happiness is hard for me, as her master, to accept…"

Chen Daoxuan's hand, holding a teacup, trembled as he heard the system's prompt.

This happiness came far too suddenly!

Even with all his personal battles, subduing numerous enemies, and even annihilating the Ren family, he hadn't earned as much as Leng Yanran did by killing those two Void Refining Realm experts in such a short time!

His disciples, who usually needed his protection, had gone berserk today. In just a few moments, he had earned nine hundred thousand system points – an unparalleled stroke of fortune!

With this pace, even breaking through the Annihilation Realm or the Boundless Realm seemed achievable!

"Meow…"

Yu Youwei, lying on his leg, didn't understand why he was suddenly elated, but she playfully rubbed her head against his hand.

"Well, it seems like everything went quite smoothly this time. This time, as her master, I can finally be hands-off."

Chen Daoxuan chuckled to himself.

Miasma Forest.

"Old Fifth!!!"

The remaining one of the three elders of the Jiang family were filled with both grief and fury as he witnessed yet another fellow clan member fall. Although the Jiang family was considered a second-rate family in the Western Region, conquering the Eastern Region shouldn't have been an issue for them!

Besides, they had a Fusion Realm ancestor guarding their family.

But this time, the losses were devastating in the Eastern Region. He simply couldn't understand why a monk in the first level of the Returning Ruins Realm could burst out with such a strong strength!

Putting aside the fact that their enemy could utilize immortal treasures, even the enigmatic body art and techniques that couldn't be sensed by Void Refining Realm cultivators left them with a sense of dread.

Just now, the other party used another magical power, and was able to make the fifth elder of the third level of the Void Refining Realm lose his mind for a short time with the first level of the Returning Ruins Realm – it was nothing short of a fantasy!

Something unheard of!

Even the demonic scions of the current Western Region royal family couldn't achieve such feats!

Crossing one major realm to fight was already a once-in-a-millennium genius.

Crossing two major realms was a once-in-a-myriad-years extraordinary talent – the kind that the current generation's demonic scions, like the one from the demonic clan, possessed!

As for crossing three major realms, the Jiang family elders had only heard of this being achievable by the Holy Sons in the Central Region's sacred land.

Yet today, they were witnessing a terrifying genius who could transcend four realms and suppress those at the Void Refining Realm. Was it really possible? Could it be true?

Fear gripped the third elder.

True, genuine fear.

Having offended such a prodigy, if they gave her time to attain even higher realms – even if it was just the Boundless Realm or even the Annihilation Realm – could the Jiang family withstand her?

"We can't leave her alive in this world! If we don't eliminate her, our Jiang family will be in danger!"

The determination in the eyes of the third elder grew fierce. No matter the cost, he had decided today to kill this woman!

Whether it was for the vengeance of their recently deceased nephew, Jiang Du, and the two fellow clan members, or to safeguard the Jiang family's future from facing such a heaven-defying talent, he must kill Leng Yanran!

"Your turn, scum."

After finishing of the fifth elder, the pressure on Leng Yanran suddenly diminished. Although her abilities were now exposed, facing just one Void Refining Realm expert didn't seem challenging to her.

As she prepared to charge toward the last Jiang family elder, her brows furrowed. She used her Heavenly Demon Shadow technique to evade dozens of attacks coming from behind her.

Turning around, her face icy, Leng Yanran was met with a surprise – numerous forces from the Eastern Region had united for a surprise attack.

"I'll deal with you later!"

Leng Yanran's cold gaze sent shivers down the spines of those who met her eyes. Undeterred, she continued toward the lone surviving Jiang family elder.

"You're formidable, so formidable that I fear you. However, today, you must die here. For the Jiang family's sake, you can only die here."

The third elder watched Leng Yanran charging at him, the intense aura of death and tangible killing intent making his fear uncontrollable. But once he'd made up his mind, he felt a release of sorts.

"Boom!" Suddenly, the third elder expanded like a balloon, brimming with spiritual energy.

"Hiss!!! This guy actually burned his life essence to kill Fairy Leng! This complicates things! This Jiang family Void Refining Realm expert is ruthless, burning his life essence while blocking his five senses and sealing his divine awareness. Now even Fairy Leng's technique can't distract him."

Seeing this, the Great elder of the Holy Mountain sucked in a breath, concerned for Leng Yanran.

Although the Void Refining Realm expert had closed off his five senses, he could still fight on instinct. As long as he touched Leng Yanran, he could deliver a fatal blow.

With the burning of his life essence, the Void Refining Realm elder, now at the Sixth Layer, could unleash power comparable to the Ninth Layer, or even nearly Fusion Realm power.

"Humph, struggling at death's door."

Seeing the Void Refining Realm elder burn his life essence, Leng Yanran remained unperturbed. Her ability, the Heavenly Demon Shadow, gave her complete confidence to evade any attack.

Even if her opponent self-destructed, she could calmly retreat into the Tower of Enlightenment, her artifact providing an impenetrable defense. With the Void Refining Realm elder no longer evading, Leng Yanran had already closed the distance.

Spear in her right hand, left hand forming seals, she probed with several attacks, seeking the weakness in her opponent's defenses.

Without his five senses and divine awareness, the Void Refining Realm expert was akin to a blind giant. It didn't take long for Leng Yanran to find an opening!

"Tower of Enlightenment!"

Leng Yanran acted decisively, wasting no time exploiting this vulnerability. The Tower of Enlightenment's last life-saving attack was unleashed! Without any surprises, the tower pierced through the elder's heart, shattering his lifeline. He was left with no chance of survival.

And the Void Refining Realm elder of the Sixth Layer, his hand slowly clutching his chest, ceased to breathe, lying motionless.

The scene fell into silence.

Everyone was dumbfounded. In such a short time – not even the time it takes to burn an incense stick – three Void Refining Realm experts had fallen at Leng Yanran's hands.

The forces from the Eastern Region who had sided with the Jiang family began to panic!

"Hehe, Senior Sister is amazing! She always knows how to handle difficulties!"

Li Yourong appeared beside her senior sister at this moment. She had been aware that if she joined the battle against the Void Refining Realm experts, she would only be a burden to her senior sister. Thus, she had stayed at a distance, silently cheering her on.

"Once Yourong breaks through to the Unity Realm, she won't be any less amazing."

Leng Yanran smiled at her junior sister and casually remarked. Suddenly, Leng Yanran's expression changed dramatically!

"Perish!!!"

The elder who had clearly had his lifeline shattered, due to the burning of his life essence, the blood had filled his internal organs. He hadn't died. He had deliberately lulled Leng Yanran into a false sense of security.

Now, with Leng Yanran's guard down, he gathered his remaining energy into a single finger, aiming for her heart!

"Holy Dragon Transformation! Senior Sister, dodge!!!"

Startled, Li Yourong activated her ability, the Holy Dragon Transformation. Without hesitation, she instinctively pushed her senior sister away!
