What? System Wants Me To Steal MILFs To Become Stronger!-Chapter 278: Hanxu Emperor Ji Chunqiu

As the fragments of Array Formation rained down, the citizens of Royal City still looked dazed even after the terrifying figure dissipated like mist under sun.

After a long while,

"An Immortal, a true Immortal!" A man shouted, and began to kowtow.

Others quickly followed, dropping to their knees in the snow-covered streets.

But this was expected, after all this wasn't something a cultivator could achieve.

Only the legendary Immortals could possess such power!

Soon the entire Royal City erupted into chaos!

…

Inside the Imperial Study Room, Hanxu Emperor Ji Chunqiu was examining the recording jade slip when suddenly his expression turned pale as he sensed a disturbance in the Heaven and Earth.

He swiftly moved to the window and as soon as he saw the burning Demonic God outside, every hair on his body stood on end.

After becoming the Emperor, this was first time when he felt true fear.

Even when he met the Human Emperor of the Central Continent, he didn't feel such terror.

"That arrogant old fuck? What terrifying being have you angered? Is this… is this the end of the Dynasty?"

This thought involuntarily flashed through his mind because when he channelled his Spiritual Energy into the Royal Token within his space ring to send a message, no answer came!

This token was a direct way to contact the guardian deity of the Dynasty.

But now, even that Spirit Ancestor stayed silent.

He feared this being was someone even the Spirit Ancestor dared not face.

But after a moment, when the demonic figure disappeared, Ji Chunqiu exhaled a long breath that even he didn't sense he had been holding!

However,

"What!? I-I can no longer sense the State Preceptor's presence!" Ji Chunqiu's pupils constricted into pinholes, his back covered in sweat!

One had to understand that in the Shattered Heaven Continent, the number of Ruler Realm Cultivators could be counted on one hand, so the death of even one such Cultivator was enough to shake the entire continent!

He waited for a moment and after confirming that the supreme figure had truly gone, he immediately called Zhen and asked him to surround the State Preceptor's palace. freēnovelkiss.com

Then he vanished, like a wisp of smoke in the wind!

At the same time, the Ruler Realm Cultivators of the three sects and four Dynasties were also looking in the direction of the Hanxu Dynasty, their faces extremely solemn.

They immediately contacted the spies they had planted in the Hanxu Dynasty, and within an incense stick of time, everything that happened here reached their ears.

However, it was only verbal information, because all the recording talismans and jades they used to record couldn't even capture a glimpse of that terrifying being.

Yet this didn't stop these Ruler Realm Cultivators, after all the terrifying presence they felt was someone that stuck fear in their very soul.

Until they completely understood what had happened in Hanxu Dynasty, they couldn't cultivate in peace.

So they promptly asked these spies to come back and when they did, they used soul searching techniques to see the complete truth through their memories.

And once they saw everything, their faces turned ashen.

But what truly filled them with terror was that no Heavenly Phenomena appeared…

But it would all happen later.

Back to the present,

It took a few moments for Lucian to calm down his racing heart.

"W-what the hell just happened?" Iris exclaimed, her teary eyes now wide with disbelief, her voice trembling like bamboo in wind!

"L-lucian, don't tell me it was you who summoned that being?" Nysa stammered, while Eris went towards Sylvia to heal her injuries.

"Do you think I've the power to do something like that? It must be some old enemy of that old fucker,"

As he stood up to pick up the old man's Space Ring which was the only treasure that didn't get destroyed, Lucian quickly denied everything.

Although he had just read the System's notification and understood it was the System's doing, he of course wouldn't reveal the existence of the System to his women.

Nysa looked at him with a strange look but in the end she just nodded and didn't ask further questions.

Instead, she moved towards the bookshelves to gather the jade scrolls and cultivation manuals, while Lucian busied himself with collecting all the Spiritual Treasures after confirming Sylvia was stable now.

"Does it even matter who or what that was? What really matters is that we're all safe and that old bag of bones is now dead. But what did he mean by the "Outside"?"

Iris's pale face brightened with relief, but then turned confused as she walked towards him just as he put the last Spiritual Treasure into his Space Ring!

"I really don't know what the hell is the Outside!" Lucian replied, his brows furrowed in confusion, "The old man mentioned it as if it was something significant, but I've never heard of such a thing or place."

"Now that he's dead, I guess we'll never know!" Iris sighed.

Lucian's eyes suddenly lit up as he examined the Space Ring in his palm, "I saw a diary in his Space Ring, perhaps that'll have the answer..."

Iris was about to ask him to take out the diary when Eris suddenly said, "Let's read that later. I guess the Emperor will soon summon us. After all, a Ruler Realm cultivator has just died."

"I guess you're right, mother," Lucian nodded as he could already sense many cultivators surrounding this place.

He patted Iris's shoulder and she nodded before following him him toward Sylvia.

Sitting cross-legged beside Sylvia, he asked, "Sylvia, are you alright now?"

Right now, Sylvia had already regained her consciousness.

She replied with difficulty, "M-my Golden Core cracked a bit!"

Lucian's heart fell as he heard this.

Because of her mask, he couldn't examine her Golden Core before, but now sensing the instability in her Spiritual Energy, he knew the situation was serious.

He quickly threw the State Preceptor's Space Ring toward Eris, saying, "Mom, check inside if there's any pill that can help Sylvia's condition."

Eris swiftly caught the ring and nodded.

Now that the State Preceptor was dead, this treasure was ownerless, so she quickly imprinted her Spiritual Mark and examined the items inside.

Although her heart pounded with intense excitement as soon as she saw the amount of treasures and Spirit Stones inside, she suppressed her thoughts for now and began to search for something suitable to heal Sylvia.

After a few breaths of time, she took out a blue fruit that emitted a sweet fragrance, its surface glistening with dew-like Spiritual Energy.

"Sylvia, eat this. This Cloud Mist Grape should heal your Golden Core," Eris said gently, placing the fruit in Sylvia's trembling hands.

Sylvia didn't hesitate and after eating the fruit in a few bites, she closed her eyes and began to refine it, her aura gradually stabilizing.

Meanwhile, after asking Eris to hide the Space Ring for now, Lucian closed his eyes and opened the System's screen.
