The Demon Concubine of God

Chapter 466 I've discovered you're far more useful than my little grandson.

Imagine how fast and how exhausted that person's brain would be if they were completely in control of a disastrous war.

As the blood runes gradually diminished and the war came to an end, Shen Wen rubbed her eyes, but dared not delay for even a moment longer. She quickly restored her vision and stared intently at the invisible screen.

But just as she was completely focused, a sudden remark from behind almost scared her out of her wits.

"So this is your secret. I think I've just discovered it."

Shen Wen quickly turned around to look at the person, whose face was completely bloodless.

Upon seeing that it was actually Yu Chi Lian, even someone as calm as Shen Wen was so frightened that he took several steps back and almost collapsed to the ground.

The question Shen Wen wanted to ask was stuck in his throat, like an egg stuck in his throat, and he couldn't get it out.

Yu Chi Lian watched her trembling appearance with great interest.

She said, "I've just realized that you're much more useful than my little grandson."

Shen Wen really wanted to blow up this old monster with a missile, but she tried to come up with many one-hit kill plans in her mind, only to find that none of them were feasible. Shen Wen was at her wit's end.

"You...what exactly do you want to do?"

Shen Wen could only utter this weak and powerless sentence at the end.

Yu Chi Lian said, "Do you think that helping Chu Yanqiu eliminate those blood talismans is solving his problem? Aren't you wondering why so many blood talismans have reappeared today when you clearly destroyed all the blood talismans in the Prince Rui's mansion yesterday?"

Shen Wen then belatedly realized, "So it was you who did it. You refined all these blood talismans."

Yu Chi Lian grabbed Shen Wen's shoulder and then gently chanted a spell. In the blink of an eye, the two of them left Chu Yanqiu's house and found themselves on a war-torn battlefield when they opened their eyes.

Shen Wen stared blankly at the scene of war not far away, not understanding why Yu Chi Lian had brought her here.

Yu Chi Lian remained elegant and noble. As if taking pity on a beggar, she gracefully leaned down and whispered in Shen Wen's ear, "I know what your wish is right now. How about... I do you a favor and lend you a hand?"

After she finished speaking, she raised her right hand towards the side of the war and easily made a gesture of control and crushing, and then a bizarre scene unfolded.

In the battle between humans and blood runes a hundred meters away, the seemingly invincible blood runes suddenly stopped, turned the knife on themselves, and dramatically self-destructed on the spot.

These bizarre suicides involving blood talismans were not just one or two, but all of them. In an instant, what was originally a life-or-death war between the two sides turned into a one-sided victory for humanity.

Everyone was stunned, for a moment thinking they were having a nightmare, and gasps of surprise rose and fell.

Shen Wen was also dazzled by this beautiful skill, and she looked at Yu Chi Lian and couldn't help but smile foolishly.

Yu Chi Lian laughed along with her, and said, "How about it? Are you satisfied with this result?"

Shen Wen stopped laughing, looking utterly powerless. She still couldn't help but say to Yu Chi Lian, "Do you know what kind of people this world can't tolerate? It's people like you who aren't born in accordance with the will of Heaven. Your existence is a nightmare for those people not far away. But I don't understand, since you're so powerful, and you can practically have the power of the world's kingdoms within your grasp, why don't you do it yourself? Why don't you just use your divine power to create a 'those who obey me prosper' elimination game, leaving only those willing to support you in unifying the world?"

Yu Chi Lian listened without changing her expression. After a moment's thought, she quietly said, "It's different."

Yu Chi Lian squatted down in front of Shen Wen, and the two looked at each other. Yu Chi Lian touched Shen Wen's cheek and said, "I find you more and more interesting. I used to only have eyes for my grandson Chu Yanqiu, but now it seems you might be more suitable to use him. And what's more, you love Chu Yanqiu so much. Since we've come this far, I'll be frank. If you agree to be completely under my control, I'll consider sparing Chu Yanqiu's life. How about it? My terms are acceptable, aren't they?"

Shen Wen's face turned cold, and she gradually gritted her back teeth, saying, "Have you forgotten how pathetic you were when you escaped from that desolate mountain yesterday?"

Reminded by her words, Yu Chi Lian also remembered what happened yesterday, and she couldn't help but chuckle.

She admired Shen Wen very much; he was truly the only person who had been put in such a difficult position over the years.

After she finished laughing, she remained calm and said to Shen Wen, "Foolish mortals are foolish. We've fought so many times, haven't you seen my strength yet? But it's not too late for you to see it now. How about I show you a good show?"

Shen Wen watched the madwoman warily, wondering how many innocent lives she would take next.

Yu Chi Lian grabbed Shen Wen, and the two of them faced the battlefield that was gradually dissipating in the distance.

Not long after, Shen Wen was lifted to the ground by the woman. Shen Wen looked around and found that he had returned to the Duke of Ji's mansion.

Yu Chi Lian looked at her with a smile and said, "Some interesting things will happen next. If you, a mere mortal, can break this trap, I will let you go. If you fail to break this trap, then you will have to serve me for the rest of your life."

Shen Wen looked at her intently. She heard her clearly. She had just said "break the deadlock," which meant that she would set a trap for herself, a trap in which she would gamble her entire life.

Shen Wen stared intently at the woman, the question lingering in his mouth, but he ultimately held back from asking it.

But the next moment, Yu Chi Lian used some strange movement technique to get close to him, put her mouth to his ear, and whispered in a voice that shook Shen Wen's mind: "From this moment on, I will exist in your body. From now on, this body of yours will be under my control. What I say and think will be carried out by your body."

Shen Wen was captivated by her words, which sounded like a bewitching chant, like a series of hypnotic clocks. With each chime, her will weakened until she was completely hypnotized by this person.

This process only lasted a few seconds, and then Shen Wen immediately returned to normal. As if he had suddenly lost his senses, Shen Wen, who was unaware of what was happening, even shook his head vigorously to clear his mind.

Shen Wen fixed her gaze on Yu Chi Lian again, her eyes filled with doubt.

Yu Chi Lian slowly raised his hand above his head and snapped his fingers with a "thud".

Then everything around me suddenly changed.

All that could be seen in front of Shen Wen were various soldiers, their bodies stained with blood and exuding murderous intent, and the person leading them was none other than Chu Yanqiu.

Chu Yanqiu pointed his sword at Shen Wen, his eyes filled with anger and hatred as he questioned, "Where did you hide my grandfather? Speak! I warn you, my grandfather had better be alright. If anything happens to him, I will tear you to pieces."

Shen Wen was completely stunned. She had no idea what Chu Yanqiu had just said. She wanted to run over and grab Chu Yanqiu's arm to explain to him, but her body wouldn't obey her commands. She just stood there, dumbfounded.

Just then, the soldiers behind Chu Yanqiu looked at Shen Wen's back with surprise and couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment.

Even Chu Yanqiu was taken aback when he saw the men and horses that appeared behind Shen Wen, and he was furious when he looked at him.

Shen Wen couldn't help but turn around and saw a dense army of blood runes standing behind her, each one like an iron tower and steel warrior, majestic and seemingly obedient to her commands.

These blood talismans, which had been standing mechanically, began to bow their heads in response to Shen Wen when she turned to look at them.

Shen Wen panicked for a moment, but it was only a brief moment of panic, because the controlling and bewitching magic was too powerful, and as a mortal, he simply could not wake up from such a powerful spell.

Shen Wen steadied himself, slowly turned around, and met Chu Yanqiu's gaze, who already harbored hatred towards him.

Looking at Chu Yanqiu's pained expression, Shen Wen merely smiled disdainfully and said, "You treacherous dog who plotted against the Great Jue Kingdom, you dare to shout in front of me? I ask you, how were you so carefree when you killed my Great Jue people? Now that it's my turn to kill your family, you're filled with hatred and gnashing your teeth. Don't you know this is called the cycle of karma and retribution?"

Chu Yanqiu's gaze grew increasingly intense as he looked at her, his eyes filled with a growing ferocity.

Seeing his restrained expression, Shen Wen felt inexplicably refreshed and gratified. She gritted her teeth and said, "I never thought you'd suffer like me. Should I remind you? You tormented me to the point of near death a while ago. You want to see your grandfather? Fine, I'll grant your wish."

After saying that, Shen Wen raised his fingers above his head and snapped them crisply.

The next moment, Chu Yanqiu's extremely worried grandfather was brought close by two men, who held gleaming knives to his neck.

Seeing his grandfather in such a disheveled state, Chu Yanqiu immediately called out anxiously, "Grandfather!"

Seeing his grandfather, whose body was limp, slowly raise his head and give him a reassuring smile, Chu Yanqiu finally regained some composure.

Chu Yanqiu looked at Shen Wen and gritted his teeth, saying, "You really are a monster. I should have realized long ago that you carry the blood and bones of the five evil immortals of the Western Palace. You have inherited all their evil and ambition. You and your ancestor, Consort Xianrou, came down to the mortal world to bring disaster to the world. You are a monster who brings ruin to the country and the people."

"Calling me a monster one minute and a second," Shen Wen said impatiently, picking at her ear. "After all that cursing, do you think you're incredibly eloquent? Let me tell you, you're overthinking it. So this is what you really think: you're just a paranoid psychopath. You call me a scourge of the country, but why don't you look down at yourself? How many people's blood are on your hands? You probably can't even count them all. You're just a killing machine created by others. Aren't you pathetic and pathetic? But I'm telling you, I understand you. After all, while you still have human consciousness and human thought, make the most of it. Otherwise, in a few days, you'll live like the blood talisman behind me, truly losing your right to be human. When someone asks you to kill your own loved ones, you'll just readily confess."

Chu Yanqiu pointed his sword at Shen Wen and threatened, "Release my grandfather!"
