Chapter 832 The Elders' Regret
Chapter 832 The Elders' Regret
Inside the palace, enveloped in a dark golden divine glow, a delightful rhythm of life emanated from it.
Chen Yuting's originally petite and delicate body underwent an extreme transformation under the nourishment of that domineering and unparalleled life essence, or rather, the Blood Demon God Source. This transformation was so profound that it even caused her soul to fall into a blank state due to the extreme pleasure.
She offered no resistance, nor dared to offer the slightest resistance.
The once aloof and profound demeanor of the Chen family elder shattered completely under the gaze of those dark purple eyes, leaving not even a trace of dust.
That absolute sense of dominance, which came from the depths of her blood, made her fully realize her place within that week.
……
"Whoosh—!!"
Lin Qiye withdrew his hand, his fingertips shrouded in an extremely rich dark red light.
He glanced indifferently at Chen Yuting, who was nestled in his arms at that moment.
With a thought, Lin Qiye directly deducted 10,000 battle merits in exchange for the freezing rule that Chen Yuting wanted.
Then.
An extremely profound and strange fluctuation of rules condensed at Lin Qiye's fingertip into a crystal that flowed with dark golden light.
This crystal contains the complete understanding of the rules of freezing from a top human war god in the history of Taurus.
The moment Chen Yuting saw the crystal, her beautiful eyes widened instantly!
"Here you go, the insights into the Frozen Rules that you requested."
As Lin Qiye spoke, the crystal silently disappeared into the depths of Chen Yuting's brow.
"Um... Master..."
Chen Yuting's delicate body trembled violently as she gripped Lin Qiye's hand tightly.
"Master's grace!! Chen Yuting... Yuting is willing to be your servant for all eternity! I am willing to bear your children!! I will never betray you!!"
……
"Lori".
Lin Qiye gently patted Chen Yuting's smooth, long hair and said softly to Qing Luoli in the StarNet:
"Take Chen Yuting to the side hall to recuperate properly. From today onwards, she is also one of the mistresses of this mansion."
"Yes... Master."

Qing Luoli bowed respectfully, but her eyes, which were as clear as autumn water, were now devoid of any of the composure she had shown moments before.
It was blatant, almost overflowing, envy, jealousy, and hatred!
"A comprehension of the rules...that's the life's work of a top-tier war god! That old hag Chen Yuting...she actually obtained it!"
Qing Luoli bit her red lips, and the longing for the nourishment of the divine source in her eyes when she looked at Lin Qiye almost burned away her reason.
But she knew that her current level was not yet up to the requirement of comprehending the rules.
……
Outside the palace.
The group of Valkyrie elders, who were originally mocking each other, have now been standing at the gate for a full week.
"Why aren't they out yet?!"
Yu Nishang was so anxious that she paced around in circles.
"It's been a week... Could it be...?"
Qing Mengying also stood to the side, her icy blue eyes reflecting a complex and varied expression.
Until the door, which had been closed for a week, emitted an extremely low hum once again.
The group of female elders, who had been whispering amongst themselves, instantly fell silent, all their eyes turning to the main entrance.
Then, Qing Luoli led Chen Yuting out, her expression complicated.
In that instant, the pupils of all the Valkyrie elders in the audience contracted violently!
Chen Yuting...
At this moment, her pretty face was rosy, and there was a subtle feeling that was different from before!
"Her...her radiance, her aura..."
"She...she really grasped the essence of the rules?!"
"That must be it!"
A bitter feeling born of jealousy spread wildly through the hearts of every female elder.
And just as the atmosphere froze to freezing point.
Qing Luoying's usually calm yet authoritative voice rang out again:
"Next. Elder Xiang Wanying, please come in."
Yu Nishang and Qing Mengying looked grim, their hearts breaking!
They used to be high and mighty in the family, and always felt they had to put on airs.
The overwhelming sense of regret they felt almost drove these two renowned Valkyries to the brink of collapse on the spot!
"Why did I dawdle in the first place?!"
Yu Nishang bit her lower lip hard, tears welling up in her eyes. Faced with the ethereal yet seemingly within reach of the Path of the God of War, all her pride was shattered into nothingness.
……
Xiang Wanying, an elder of the Xiang family.
She was born with a gentle and graceful face, and her temperament was as elegant as an orchid. She was originally known for her refined and scholarly manners within her family.
Even though she had come to seek that sliver of opportunity to become a War God, she still maintained the last vestige of dignity befitting a family elder.
She walked three steps away from Lin Qiye's seat, curtsied, and performed a graceful and flawless gesture.
"Xiang Wanying greets Your Excellency."
Her voice was gentle and refined, with a scholarly air, as if she were not in the palace where life and death were decided, but in a quiet tea room having a conversation. "Your Excellency's long song on the interstellar battlefield has resonated throughout the ages. I admire it greatly, so I came uninvited. I hope Your Excellency will forgive me."
Lin Qiye rested his chin on his hand, looking with great interest at the woman who resembled a figure straight out of a traditional Chinese ink painting from Jiangnan.
"Elder Xiang is quite a refined person."
With a flick of his long sleeve and a slight flick of his fingertips, Lin Qiye sent a wisp of rich, dark red divine energy slowly drifting toward Xiang Wanying.
"Since you are a refined person, let's talk about something refined. Elder Xiang, how do you think the word 'Tao' should be interpreted?"
Xiang Wanying looked at the divine source that was so close, exuding an ultimate allure of life, and her eyes flickered slightly.
She originally intended to cite classical texts and discuss the "highest good is like water" principle that has been passed down in the Xiang family for thousands of years.
However, the moment that breath entered her nostrils, her martial arts mind, which had been as still as an old monk in meditation, skipped a beat without warning.
"The Way...the Way is in the heart, and also in..."
Her voice stopped abruptly.
Because Lin Qiye had stood up at some point, his tall and imposing figure, like an insurmountable sacred mountain, instantly invaded her domain.
The domineering pressure of the LV7 Blood Demon power was like a brutal hammer, smashing a hideous crack into her carefully crafted "refined" exterior.
"The Way lies in the hands of the strong."
Lin Qiye extended his finger and aggressively lifted Xiang Wanying's sharp chin.
His fingertips were icy cold, yet they carried a burning sensation that made Xiang Wanying's blood almost boil.
"Elder Xiang, do you understand?"
"Sir...sir..."
Xiang Wanying's originally bright eyes began to become hazy.
That primal yearning for a higher level of life, long suppressed deep within his bones, grew wildly under Lin Qiye's gaze, like weeds awakened by spring rain.
"Wanying...I understand."
A breathtaking pink blush spread across her jade-white neck.
The next second, Lin Qiye pulled this delicate body, as warm as water yet as hot as fire, into his arms.
,
"Okay, I can give you the rules you want!"
"But first, you need to learn..."
