The Corruption Dragon God: Lust System Chapter 545 What will become of that little demon?

Previously on The Corruption Dragon God: Lust System...
Qingyi initiated upgrades to his Blood of the Corruption Dragon God lineage and Primordial Dragon Body constitution, unleashing a cataclysmic breakthrough that manifested his bloodline projection as a tangible, three-hundred-meter black dragon, devastating the surrounding twenty-kilometer region and reducing mountains to dust. With effortless power, he annihilated a resistant peak using thunderous Qi, confirming the advancements to Astral Grade alongside an enhanced Lineage Projection skill and his cultivation to the Second Stage of the Ancestral Emperor's Realm. Satisfied with his godlike strength, he departed via spatial fold toward the fox people's lands to aid Lingxue amid looming threats. In the imperial capital, the Empress and Enlightened Emperor oversaw final preparations for the Emperor's Hand flying boat, poised for a perilous voyage across the Sea of Eternal Blue, leaving their master builder uneasy with veiled intentions.

The ensuing days brought a serene calm to Qingyi's life.

He spent some time practicing alongside a few of his wives and even joined Yunfei for a sparring match observed by the lightning spirit priestesses.

Additionally, he assisted in cleansing the lingering corruption from the Life Tree, witnessing directly how it empowered the fox people to bear offspring.

For the first time in countless years, the sounds of newborn children echoed through that area, filling Qingyi with immense joy.

Every issue had been settled; no traces of demonic cultists lingered anywhere, and the Seed of Life along with its restorative abilities had become even more potent.

Right then, Qingyi was unwinding completely.

Night had fallen late, and after wrapping up his cultivation session, he decided to indulge himself by immersing up to his chest in the steaming pools of the hot springs located behind the temple.

He cherished that spot for its peaceful atmosphere and the soothing warmth of the waters.

In his right hand, he clutched a flask of strong liquor, his gaze lingering on his wives as they cleansed themselves and splashed playfully in the springs.

"Hmm... finally letting yourself unwind a bit?" A voice sounded from behind Qingyi, slender arms encircled his neck, and soft, crimson lips brushed against his cheek.

It was Hua Feiyan, her ample breasts pressing firmly against Qingyi's back during the embrace.

"Hmm... yes, it's been ages since I've eased up like this." Qingyi grinned, extending one hand backward to grasp the flawless rear of that sun-kissed beauty.

Even during intimate moments with his wives, he had always rushed, burdened by tasks or foes to eliminate.

Yet now, even with the threats posed by the demonic seeds in the Enlightened Imperial Capital and the corruption afflicting the three mightiest experts of this realm, he felt utterly at peace and refreshed.

The heavenly demon could strike whenever it pleased; he was confident in smashing it effortlessly like a mere insect.

"Hm~~" Feiyan murmured with a gentle purr.

In a fluid motion, she shifted to face Qingyi directly, settling the full, supple curves of her rear onto his lap.

She sipped from the liquor bottle he held before leaning back into his embrace.

"What do you suppose will happen to that young demon?" Feiyan inquired, her gaze drifting toward Nianxue, who frolicked in the water alongside Isabel, Ruyan, and the other women.

Not even Khaedryss stayed apart. After all, their existences stretched on nearly forever, and occasional play was essential.

"I don't know..." Qingyi shook his head. "She's not wicked, I'm certain. I'll shield her and cherish her if needed, but... that's it. I won't push for more."

"Mm..." Feiyan pondered briefly, her scarlet lips forming a wide grin.

"Hubby really is the greatest, fufufu~~" She pressed a kiss to Qingyi's mouth and then rose, stepping out of the water.

"Oh, and tomorrow I've got some pills to reveal to you—I uncovered a few excellent insights." With a light chuckle, she departed, abandoning Qingyi there.

"Ah... what an incredible woman." The striking youth shook his head, observing the women at play a bit longer before exiting the water himself and then the Mind World.

One final vow awaited his attention.

Shutting his eyes, he pinpointed the territory of the cat people and transported himself there instantly.

Thanks to his advanced mastery of space, multiple jumps were no longer required to arrive at distant lands.

A mere intention sufficed to carry him anywhere within a span covering virtually the whole world.

Wasn't that power ridiculously overpowered? He could shatter spatial walls and join or escape any conflict whenever he chose.

With a soft smile, Qingyi materialized high above the cat people's capital.

The night enveloped everything in stillness.

A subtle wave of his hand sent out a faint surge of Qi.

Seconds later, a formidable presence burst forth from the patriarch's dwelling among the cat people.

Qingyi simply hovered, eyeing the approaching figure whose form resembled a tiger far more than a feline.

"Son-in-law, you've finally shown up to visit? You insolent rascal!"

Tai Ren boomed with laughter, yanking Qingyi into a crushing embrace.

"I've been swamped with duties, father-in-law. How fares mother-in-law?" Qingyi reciprocated the hug.

Tai Ren no longer appeared weary like in the past; instead, vitality radiated from him.

Though still distant from the second stage, he seemed to have achieved a minor advancement in his astral body realm.

"She's doing well, not a day passes without her missing our little lioness..." Tai Ren's expression turned somewhat grave. "You're looking after her properly, aren't you?"

"Naturally, father-in-law. Do you question your son-in-law?" Qingyi swelled his chest proudly, drawing a hearty laugh from Tai Ren.

"Good, son-in-law, let's trade some blows. No worthy foes nearby, and my bones ache without practice soon, hahaha."

At those words, Qingyi agreed with a nod. That was precisely his purpose in coming.

In an effortless shift, both vanished, consumed by the distant skyline.

Only after placing at least five hundred kilometers between themselves and the closest settlement did they commence the bout.

Tai Ren battled with unprecedented ferocity throughout his existence.

His strikes obliterated peaks, and his Qi shook the skies, yet it fell short every time.

Each hit connecting with Qingyi drew back an even fiercer counter, while any evaded attack barely nudged Qingyi backward through the air.

Eventually, Tai Ren felt as if he were the ancient emperor facing off against an astral body realm master in Qingyi, but this didn't dismay him.

On the contrary.

Coughing up blood, he charged forward repeatedly, exchanging strikes and probing limits of stamina.

This was his son-in-law, the spouse of his Linyue, the figure fated to dominate the heavens.

Once the clash concluded, he headed back home content, despite the defeat.

Qingyi felt the same; it had been ages since a battle thrilled him so deeply.

Without delay, he reentered the Mind World, but quickly sensed an oddity.

Why did Nianxue linger alone in the primary chamber of the purple palace?
