Chapter 276 - Is This All?

"Hmm? Who's here…?"

Luo Ruxin and Luo Ruying looked up in confusion, following Ning Yechen’s gaze towards the sky above the Luo Shen Palace.

In the sky, one Fire God Ox after another was seen pulling carriage after carriage, racing through mid-air, with nearly a hundred cultivators flying swiftly to guard them.

The ones leading the procession were conspicuously Qin Hao and Qin Sheng of the Qin Immortal Residence.

Everyone in the Luo Shen Palace noticed this scene and looked up one after another.

"Wh-What a spectacular procession of Fire God Oxen…"

"Judging by their attire, these all seem to be people from the Central Heavenly Domain's Qin Immortal Residence!"

"Who are they delivering gifts to, to make such a big fuss…"

"I feel like they're heading towards our Luo Shen Palace…?"

Under the astonished gazes of the Luo Shen Palace members, the people from the Qin Immortal Residence slowly led the Fire God Oxen to land within the Luo Shen Palace's territory.

Hearing the commotion, all the disciples of the Luo Shen Palace also rushed over curiously to watch.

Luo Yingxin, Luo Tianya, and the others also walked out from the great hall, looking with surprise at the Qin Immortal Residence's display.

The marriage contract had already been canceled. What were the people from the Qin Immortal Residence still doing here?

Could it be that they wanted to attack their Luo Shen Palace…?

Luo Yingxin led Luo Tianya and the others and flew to land before Qin Hao. Her beautiful brows furrowed, and just as she was about to ask their purpose in coming, who would have thought that Qin Hao would be the first to step forward, cupping his hands and bowing as he said:

"Qin Hao of the Qin Immortal Residence, in the name of the Qin Immortal Residence, has specially come to offer gifts and apologize to the Luo Shen Palace!"

"...Hmm?"

Luo Yingxin and the others were confused on the spot.

Apologize? Apologize for what…?

Yesterday, Ning Yechen and Luo Ruxin had only told them that they had successfully canceled the marriage contract. They hadn't said that the Qin Immortal Residence would be coming to offer gifts and apologize today…

The members of the Luo Shen Palace were even more baffled.

The Qin Immortal Residence was a first-rate sect in the Central Heavenly Domain, completely beyond what their Luo Shen Palace could hope to associate with.

Why was the Qin Immortal Residence's Clan Head, Qin Hao, being so humble before Luo Yingxin…

"Men, unveil the curtains!"

Qin Hao turned around and ordered the clan disciples standing beside the Fire God Oxen.

Receiving the order, the disciples immediately moved to lift the curtains of the carriages pulled by the Fire God Oxen.

In an instant, carriage after carriage filled with spirit stones, immortal herbs, spiritual pills, and all sorts of magical treasures and divine weapons were revealed before the eyes of the Luo Shen Palace members!

The brilliant light of the spirit stones and the radiant glow of the magical treasures and immortal artifacts instantly left the members of the Luo Shen Palace staring dumbfounded.

Are these all for their Luo Shen Palace…?

Th-This is simply too generous…!

Luo Yingxin and the others were instantly stunned. For a moment, they didn't even know what to do and turned to look at Ning Yechen, who was sitting on the jade steps.

As if asking what was going on…

Ning Yechen, flanked by the two sisters Luo Ruying and Luo Ruxin, slowly descended the jade steps and arrived before Qin Hao.

The moment Qin Hao and Qin Sheng saw Ning Yechen, they were startled and hurriedly cupped their hands with the utmost respect, saying:

"Greetings, Demon Lord!"

"As you requested, the Qin Immortal Residence has come as promised to offer gifts and apologize to the Luo Shen Palace!"

After speaking, Qin Hao and Qin Sheng moved aside, revealing the rows of Fire God Oxen pulling carriages of spirit stones, immortal medicines, and so on.

Ning Yechen gave a casual glance and said calmly:

"Is this all?"

Hearing these words, the hearts of Qin Hao and everyone from the Qin Immortal Residence behind him leaped into their throats, and they were nearly scared to death…

The Demon Lord is… dissatisfied…?

"De-Demon Lord… this is already the entire fortune of the Qin Immortal Residence…"

Qin Hao said with a trembling voice, wanting to cry but having no tears in his heart.

He had already emptied the Qin Immortal Residence's treasury. There was really nothing left…

Seeing Ning Yechen remain silent, Qin Hao and the others became tense to the extreme.

After hesitating for a moment, Qin Hao gritted his teeth and, enduring the pain, also took off the immortal ring he was wearing…

"Demon Lord, in this immortal ring, there is a small personal collection of mine…"

"If you would not disdain it, please accept it with a smile…"

Qin Hao held the immortal ring with both hands, tears in his eyes, on the verge of crying.

If he had known that provoking the Luo Shen Palace back then would lead to such a ruinous outcome, he would have broken Qin Sheng’s legs rather than let him philander outside!

Ning Yechen casually picked up the immortal ring. With a single thought, he erased the restriction on it and, without even bothering to look, tossed it directly to Luo Ruying behind him.

"My wife, it's yours."

Luo Ruying caught the immortal ring with both hands. She sent her divine sense inside to take a look and was instantly so shocked her pretty face changed.

The pile of spirit stones, magical treasures, and other things inside was comparable to the entire former treasury of the Luo Shen Palace…

"Husband, this is too much. I can't take it…" Luo Ruying said, feeling troubled.

Ning Yechen smiled faintly.

"If my wife doesn't want it, then just throw it away."

Luo Ruying: "…"

Luo Ruying was instantly speechless. Biting her silver teeth, she gave Ning Yechen a dissatisfied glare and had no choice but to put the immortal ring away.

This fellow clearly knew that she wouldn't be able to part with it, so he said that on purpose…!

Even if it was just to supplement the Luo Shen Palace's treasury, it was a considerable income.

Luo Ruxin looked at the immortal ring in Luo Ruying’s hand with eyes full of envy. She drew close to Ning Yechen’s side and, shifting her body coyly, pointed at herself as if wheedling.

"Brother-in-law~~ What about mine~?"

Ning Yechen: "…"

Ning Yechen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

This girl, just now she was so scared of him, and now she's already acting coquettishly…

Ning Yechen turned his head to look at Qin Sheng, who had been keeping his head lowered beside Qin Hao the entire time.

Qin Sheng seemed to sense the gaze and lifted his head, his eyes meeting Ning Yechen’s.

Ning Yechen revealed a roguishly charming smile. Qin Sheng instantly shivered, a bad premonition in his heart…

"Will you take off the immortal ring yourself, or shall this Lord help you?"

"This Lord's hands are clumsy. If this Lord were to help you, you might lose a few fingers, or perhaps an entire arm."

Qin Sheng: "…"

"Demon Lord, please accept it with a smile!”

Qin Sheng said with a tearful voice, offering up his immortal ring with both hands without the slightest hesitation.

How is this a Demon Lord…!

He's simply a bandit!

"Here, it's yours~"

Ning Yechen took the immortal ring and, likewise erasing the restriction on it, handed it to Luo Ruxin.

"Yay~ Brother-in-law~ You're the best~"

Having gotten the immortal ring, Luo Ruxin was overjoyed and leaped with delight, hugging Ning Yechen’s arm coquettishly.

Luo Ruying’s pretty face darkened. She pinched Luo Ruxin’s ear and pulled her away from Ning Yechen.

"B-Big Sister, it hurts, it hurts…"

Luo Ruxin pleaded for mercy, clutching her ear.

Luo Ruying released Luo Ruxin’s hand and gave Ning Yechen another irritated glare.

"You, don't spoil her so much!"

"Don't worry, my wife. The one I spoil the most is still you~"

Ning Yechen said softly with a light laugh, drawing close to Luo Ruying.

With a whoosh, Luo Ruying’s face instantly flushed red.

The surrounding crowd was instantly dumbfounded…

Luo Ruxin, moreover, covered her little mouth in surprise.

Wow.

As expected of the Demon Lord, Brother-in-law is so direct, so straightforward…

Being confessed to so openly, Luo Ruying was extremely shy in her heart. She gave Ning Yechen an irritated glare and asked:

"Husband, were the people from the Qin Immortal Residence the ones you were waiting for?"

"My wife, I was not referring to them."

Ning Yechen shook his head, then looked up again towards the distant sky, where one divine rainbow after another could be seen speeding towards the Luo Shen Palace from all directions!
