370: Chapter 370 The lady is frightened. Let her husband feel if his heart is beating fast.

Cao Kun took a step forward and appeared in front of Supreme Elder Zhan Hong.

He pressed the cold blade of the chaos divine sword directly against the center of his brow.

"Old geezer, is your brain clear yet?"

"Do you still remember that giant hand you stretched out across the realms in the Lower Realm to snatch my primordial demon heart?"

"Th-that time..." Supreme Elder Zhan Hong's lips trembled violently.

His eyes were filled with terror and regret, unable to even utter a complete sentence.

Cao Kun sneered and pushed the sword tip forward by half an inch, piercing the skin at the center of Supreme Elder Zhan Hong's brow.

A drop of bright red essence blood slid down the sword tip and dripped into the Void Realm.

"You were quite arrogant when you spoke back then."

"Something about the Karma of the demonic object being too great, and that the mortals of the Lower Realm couldn't handle it."

"This Young Master hates it most when others act arrogant in front of me. You tell me, how should we settle this today?"

Supreme Elder Zhan Hong, completely locked on by the Chaos Sword Intent, knew that he would undoubtedly die today.

This young man wearing the yin-yang dharma robe was by no means a kind soul.

He could tell from the playful look in the other party's eyes.

This little beast would absolutely not let him go.

Begging for mercy would also be in vain.

"Little beast..."

Supreme Elder Zhan Hong's eyes, originally filled with terror, suddenly became incomparably resentful.

"Even if I die, I will tear a layer of skin off you! Let's go to Hell together!"

Before the words had even faded, the remaining Tribulation Transcendence Stage Origin within Supreme Elder Zhan Hong's body began to violently reverse.

He forcibly fused and ignited the Dao Laws and essence blood he had painstakingly cultivated for tens of thousands of years.

The surrounding space shattered inch by inch, revealing vast stretches of black turbulent Void Realm.

The self-destruction of a Tribulation Transcendence Stage expert had enough power to flatten Shenmu City, which spanned hundreds of thousands of miles, and obliterate everyone below along with it.

"He's going to self-destruct! Run!"

In the ruins of the Gu Family below, a Gu Family Elder screamed shrilly.

The thousands of surviving Gu Family disciples all wore expressions of despair.

The destructive pressure that could wipe out heaven and earth was about to descend; they had no way to escape and could only wait for death in place.

Gu Xiyao looked up at the blood-colored energy mass in the sky, her beautiful eyes filled with worry.

She was not afraid of death.

But she was afraid that the man who had just pulled her out of the mud would meet with misfortune.

"Tear a layer of skin off me? Do you think you're a bathhouse attendant? You really don't know your place!"

Looking at the rapidly expanding Supreme Elder Zhan Hong before him.

Cao Kun sneered, spread his five fingers, and made a grabbing motion in the air toward Supreme Elder Zhan Hong's location.

"Seal!"

As the word was uttered, his command became Law!

The profound mysteries of the Emperors Law and Space Law fused perfectly.

The space where Supreme Elder Zhan Hong was located was forcibly cut out,

forming a transparent cubic barrier.

"Boom!"

Supreme Elder Zhan Hong's Physical Body exploded completely.

The violent blood-colored energy raged within the space cage, attempting to break through the restraints.

However, no matter how that power rampaged,

it could not break through the space barrier set by Cao Kun by even a fraction.

Looking from the outside,

it was like a blood-colored nuclear bomb being detonated inside a transparent glass sphere, the light blinding,

yet not even a breeze leaked out.

What is meant by covering the sky with one hand? This is it!

A moment later,

the destructive energy within the space cage gradually calmed down, leaving only a mass of rolling black smoke and turbulent space.

Cao Kun narrowed his eyes, his double-pupil vision piercing through the black energy residue.

He precisely captured the remaining Primordial Spirit that was bumping around inside like a headless fly.

"Still want to run after acting arrogant?"

Cao Kun extended his right hand, directly piercing through the space barrier, and grabbed that strand of Primordial Spirit.

"Ah!"

"Little beast, you will not have a good death!"

"Too much nonsense." Cao Kun didn't waste any words with him.

His massive Divine Sense violently stabbed into Supreme Elder Zhan Hong's Primordial Spirit, initiating soul-searching.

Supreme Elder Zhan Hong's memory fragments flashed rapidly through Cao Kun's mind.

A few breaths later, Cao Kun frowned, his expression turning somewhat ugly.

He released his hand, letting Supreme Elder Zhan Hong's remaining Primordial Spirit dissipate into the air.

"Damn it, what a waste of a treasure!"

Through soul-searching, Cao Kun learned that the primordial demon heart that had been snatched by this old thing in the Lower Realm had actually already been forcibly absorbed and refined by him.

This was the heart of a primordial demon sovereign.

It contained the purest Demonic Path Origin.

It had been ruined just like that by an old trash at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage.

The more Cao Kun thought about it, the more he felt it was a loss.

He didn't believe the primordial demon heart could be destroyed just like that.

He decisively unleashed his Divine Sense, looking at the sealed space cage again, probing it inch by inch repeatedly.

As a result, after probing for three full rounds, nothing remained but a pile of charred residue.

"It seems it's really gone, not even a scrap left." Cao Kun sighed, feeling extremely disappointed.

To prevent this insidious old geezer from having left any backup plan for Possession and Rebirth,

Cao Kun, upholding the fine tradition of leaving no future trouble, had his palm directly gush out dense Chaos Qi.

The gray mist, carrying the attribute of annihilating all things, poured directly into the space cage,

thoroughly clearing the entire space along with the residue inside.

He ensured that not even a speck of dust was left.

"What a pity, I originally wanted to take it to study."

Cao Kun shook his head and casually beckoned,

drawing the Storage Rings of Supreme Elder Zhan Hong and the previously deceased Vice Sect Master Ji Ji into his palm.

A rough scan with his Divine Sense revealed that the Top-Grade Spirit Stones, high-level Magic Treasures, and Spirit Medicine piled inside

were actually more than all the ones he had looted after coming up.

"Not bad, although these two old geezers were stingy, they were at least high-level members of the Tianxuan Immortal Sect; it barely counts as a decent haul."

Cao Kun casually put the Storage Rings into the System space, and his mood finally improved a little.

After dealing with the mess in the sky,

Cao Kun deactivated the Five Emperors Origin True Body state, his aura falling back to the Peak of the Early Mahayana Stage.

He descended gracefully onto the ruins of the Gu Family.

As soon as he landed, a fragrant breeze rushed toward him.

Gu Xiyao threw herself into Cao Kun's arms regardless of her image.

She hugged his waist tightly, her eyes red, her delicate body still trembling slightly.

At the moment Supreme Elder Zhan Hong self-destructed just now, she had truly thought she was going to lose this man.

"Husband, you scared me to death."

Feeling the soft, fragrant trembling in his arms,

Cao Kun's Blazing Sun Spiritual Root began to stir again.

He took the opportunity to wrap his arm around Gu Xiyao's slender, soft waist.

Under the gaze of everyone, he directly captured Gu Xiyao's red lips and kissed her fiercely.

"Mwah!"

The kiss ended.

Cao Kun reached out and pinched Gu Xiyao's slightly hot cheek, soothing her:

"My Lady, are you startled? Let your husband touch your heart and see if it's beating fast."

Gu Xiyao shyly buried her face in Cao Kun's chest, lightly punching him with her small hand, and protested in a low voice:

"Husband... stop it, so many people are watching."

She was now the nominal head of the Gu Family.

Being teased like this in front of so many subordinates, how could she establish authority in the future?

"So what if they're watching? I'm holding my own wife, who dares to have an opinion?"

Cao Kun raised an eyebrow, his gaze sweeping over the surrounding Gu Family members like lightning.

Those Gu Family Elders and disciples, upon meeting Cao Kun's gaze, were immediately so frightened that they shuddered, lowering their heads one after another, focusing on their own noses and hearts.

They wished they could dig out their own eyeballs and pretend they hadn't seen anything.

"We dare not! We dare not!"

"The Family Head and Young Master Cao are a match made in heaven; we absolutely wouldn't dare to have the slightest opinion!"

Are you kidding!

This was a living ancestor who would slaughter a Tribulation Transcendence Stage expert if things didn't go his way.

Even if they were given ten times the courage, they wouldn't dare to have an opinion!

"You see, no one has an opinion." Cao Kun smiled shamelessly.

Looking down at the blushing Gu Xiyao in his arms, his Blazing Sun Spiritual Root was stirring fiercely.

After fighting with Yue Ningshuang earlier, he was already thoroughly aroused.

So, he would just have to wrong her a little.

Without a second thought, Cao Kun hugged Gu Xiyao and flashed, directly activating the Space Law and disappearing from the spot.

The next second,

the two appeared in a secret room in the Gu Family's backyard that was barely intact due to the protection of a Formation.

"Husband... mmph..."

Before Gu Xiyao could even speak, she was pressed against the stone wall by Cao Kun.

"My Lady, your husband exerted quite a lot of effort just now; now it's your turn to reward me."

Having experienced a life-and-death battle,

Cao Kun was in urgent need of a deep soothing to release the anger within his body.

And Gu Xiyao, having witnessed Cao Kun's invincible demeanor like a Heavenly God descending to earth,

had already reached the Peak of her dependence and love for him.

She struggled symbolically twice, then completely softened in Cao Kun's arms, her lotus-like arms actively climbing onto his neck.

Inside the secret room, the spring scenery was enchanting.

(The following ten thousand words of ultra-high-intensity detailed description, sufficient to make the Heavenly Dao collapse and ghosts and gods weep, are omitted here...)

An hour later.

Cao Kun put on his clothes and stood by the bed, feeling refreshed.

Looking at Gu Xiyao, who was sprawled out on the bed, eyes dazed, exuding astonishing charm, he smacked his lips with satisfaction.

Not only was she moist and pure, but her affection was also very deep.

It was simply indescribable.

"My Lady, you've worked hard."

Cao Kun walked to the bedside and planted a kiss on Gu Xiyao's smooth forehead.

Then he placed the two Storage Rings of Supreme Elder Zhan Hong and Vice Sect Master Ji Ji by Gu Xiyao's pillow.

"The things in these two rings are for your household expenses from your husband."

"You are now the Gu Family head; Family reconstruction and pacifying people's hearts all require resources, so go ahead and do it."

"First set the rules; whoever dares to disobey, just kill them."

Gu Xiyao forced her sore and weak body to sit up and grasped the Storage Rings in her hand.

"Husband, rest assured, this concubine knows what to do and will absolutely not make you lose face."

"However..."

She keenly sensed Cao Kun's intention to leave, so she asked.

"Where are you going?"

Cao Kun chuckled, a flash of excitement in his eyes:

"Your husband is going into seclusion for a bit."

"The Sect Master of the Tianxuan Immortal Sect, who is a Half-Step True Immortal, is still in my hands. I need to go and interrogate her properly to see if I can squeeze out any useful information."

How could Gu Xiyao be anything but bright and intelligent?

Seeing Cao Kun's unrestrained look, she knew that his so-called interrogation was definitely not a conventional method.

But she was not jealous; instead, she nodded obediently:

"Husband, you should take it easy. After all, she is a Half-Step True Immortal; don't tire your body out."

Cao Kun laughed loudly, leaned over, and pinched Gu Xiyao's cheek.

"My Lady, rest assured, didn't you just see your husband's combat power?"

After saying that, he didn't delay any longer.

His figure directly disappeared from the secret room, and he impatiently dove into the all-heavens and myriad-realms demon suppressing tower!
