412: desperate situation

Jiang He raised his hand, and pure energy overflowed from the Jade Pendant at his waist, quickly forming a golden energy shield in front of him.

At the same time,

A bone-chilling energy surged toward Mu Qingling.

Mu Qingling's expression changed; Jiang He had actually become smarter.

"Bang!"

With a thunderous boom, countless frost crystals condensed around Mu Qingling and then exploded.

Mu Qingling was instantly sent flying, her internal aura weakened to the extreme. She was covered in blood, a truly shocking sight.

One didn't need to look to know that Jiang He's method was definitely at the Immortal Emperor level; otherwise, Mu Qingling wouldn't have been left in such a miserable state.

"Hahaha, Mu Qingling, you stupid woman, did you really take this young master for a fool?"

Jiang He's face was full of arrogance, and a cold, mocking sneer appeared at the corners of his eyes, his expression that of someone who had successfully taken revenge.

His figure instantly appeared before Mu Qingling, and he stepped directly onto her abdomen. The immense force caused Mu Qingling to cough up another mouthful of blood.

"Mu Qingling, where is your arrogance now?"

A playful look appeared at the corners of Jiang He's mouth, his tone filled with utter disdain.

"Daring to insult me in public, did you ever consider your own end?"

Mu Qingling's face was weak, but she still looked at Jiang He with coldness and said indifferently, "Jiang He, you are nothing but a waste. Do you even deserve me?"

"You only rely on the Jiang Family; otherwise, with your appearance, you would have probably died ten million times over."

"So what if you kill me? Does it prove you are excellent? Jiang He... you will always be nothing but a waste."

There was not a hint of fear in Mu Qingling's eyes, only endless mockery and disdain. Her calm words caused Jiang He's expression to turn extremely ugly.

These words stung Jiang He's heart deeply.

As the eldest young master of the Jiang Family, his talent was quite ordinary. One must know that his father was a Dominator Late Stage Cultivator, and his mother was also a Dominator Middle Stage powerhouse.

The descendant of two great powerhouses was actually so weak.

Because of this, he had suffered endless ridicule in secret, and even his father viewed him as a failure.

Fortunately, his mother treated him well, so his status in the Jiang Family was not too heavily affected.

Jiang He's gaze instantly turned icy. He looked at Mu Qingling with extreme coldness and said through gritted teeth, "It seems you truly want to die!"

As he spoke, he stepped down again. The terrifying force caused the surrounding ground to collapse, and Mu Qingling nearly fainted, a spray of bright red blood erupting from her mouth.

Jiang He did not continue with a killing blow. He said coldly, "I won't let you die so easily. I want to make you regret what you said today and make you understand the meaning of Hell."

With that, the Immortal Power within him surged into Mu Qingling's body.

The Immortal Power within Mu Qingling's body instantly vanished, and her cultivation rapidly receded. This was because Jiang He had placed a Seal Formation inside her.

Mu Qingling's cultivation was stronger than his, making it difficult to forcibly apply an Enslavement Mark. He had to Seal her cultivation first and find an opportunity to enslave her later.

After doing all this, Jiang He crouched down and approached Mu Qingling, saying with a playful smirk:

"I was originally planning to torture you to death, but now I've changed my mind. With a little face like yours, I can't bear to see you suffer too much."

"However... from now on, you shall become my toy."

"It won't be too late to kill you when this young master gets bored of playing with you."

Jiang He laughed arrogantly, the lewdness in his eyes completely undisguised.

As he spoke, he intended to reach out and undo the clothes on Mu Qingling's body.

"This body of yours looks quite nice. I wonder what kind of scenery it will be once it's stripped bare?"

Jiang He's gaze clearly began to grow heated.

Just as he was about to touch Mu Qingling, her originally weak eyes suddenly became incredibly sharp.

From deep within her body, a terrifying Sword Intent erupted once again, quickly condensing into a small sword that lunged directly at Jiang He.

Although Mu Qingling's Immortal Power was sealed, she had stored the last bit of her Sword Intent elsewhere early on, waiting for the right moment to give Jiang He a fatal blow.

This move had been in the works since the moment Jiang He showed he had counter-measures.

"Young Master, watch out!"

Not far away, the two Immortal Emperors couldn't help but roar, their faces full of anxiety.

Just now, Jiang He had sealed Mu Qingling's cultivation, and she was seriously injured. They had intended to leave to give Jiang He some space for his private business.

Who would have thought that after just two steps, things would take a turn.

"If something happened to Jiang He, the two of them would likely suffer as well. If the Madam were to blame them, it would be truly disastrous."

After their roar, they rushed toward Mu Qingling at their fastest speed.

"How dare you!"

"If you kill the Young Master, I will make sure you die after suffering infinite torture!"

They were well aware of Mu Qingling's strength, and Jiang He had just put away his defensive Magic Treasure. This strike would definitely cause Jiang He to perish.

Jiang He was stunned, not having reacted yet.

Watching the small sword condensed from Mu Qingling's Sword Intent rapidly approach him, he finally came to his senses. His hair stood on end, and he felt a numbing sensation on his scalp.

"Spare my life..."

Despair and helplessness made him cry out for mercy.

Since he hadn't prepared in advance, he could no longer block Mu Qingling's Sword Intent.

Although this Sword Intent wasn't an attack from Mu Qingling at her peak, it was equally fatal to him.

In the next moment,

The Sword Intent swept through, the small sword exploded completely, and the surrounding ground was carved with several gashes by the Sword Intent, looking hideous.

Jiang He's body was directly split into several pieces, his face still carrying disbelief and confusion.

"I... dead?"

Despair and fear flooded his mind, and his thoughts became increasingly sluggish. However, as a Cultivator, his vitality was naturally tenacious, and he had not yet truly died.

Jiang He looked at the two approaching Immortal Emperors with a pleading gaze.

"Save me!"

A weak, low voice sounded, his face full of longing for life.

At this moment, Jiang He truly felt some regret.

Why did he have to look for trouble with Mu Qingling? If he hadn't insisted on making her his woman, if he hadn't come to hunt her down, would he not be dying?

Why did it develop to this point?

Jiang He thought about many things. Growing up as a pampered child of the Jiang Family with a respected status, many people were respectful to him, and no one dared to be disrespectful, let alone kill him.

So Jiang He never thought that Mu Qingling would actually dare to kill him.

But the fact was, it happened.

Though he didn't want to admit it in his heart, what Mu Qingling said was true. Aside from the Jiang Family, he really was just a waste.

"But do I... still have a chance to change?"
