The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO-Chapter 1723 - 1721: The Demon King’s Scheme

"Are you the person in charge of entering the Ancient Ruins?" Ling Feng was stunned when he saw the person responsible for the Ancient Ruins.

The Abyssal Witch looked at Ling Feng playfully: "What’s wrong? Are you really so shocked that I’m in charge of the Ancient Ruins? Shouldn’t you have already thought about it?"

Ling Feng pondered for a moment and then felt relieved. The Ancient Ruins were filled with exiled Small Worlds, which still held countless treasures. The person managing the entrance to the Ancient Ruins is certainly someone the Demon King trusts!

And the Abyssal Witch is likewise a strong person in the Immortal Realm, and also the Demon King’s own sister. Who else would be more suitable? Moreover, the Witch had previously mentioned to Ling Feng more than once that her initial purpose in nurturing Ling Feng was to let him enter the Ancient Ruins to acquire the Star Core Power.

"I never imagined that the little fellow who met me back then would end up marrying Yunxuan, becoming the son-in-law of our Abyssal Court. This destiny is truly incredible!" The Abyssal Witch walked up to Ling Feng and gently traced his cheek with her fingers.

Ling Feng’s mouth twitched as he discreetly stepped back: "Thanks for your care earlier, Lady Witch..."

"Now that the situation has come to this, aren’t you going to call me Aunt?" The Abyssal Witch said with a smile.

Looking at the mischievous gaze of the Abyssal Witch, Ling Feng had no choice but to awkwardly call out: "Aunt."

"Ah, my good nephew-in-law!" The Abyssal Witch looked at Ling Feng’s somewhat helpless expression, feeling quite content: "Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. But have you really thought about entering the Ancient Ruins?"

Ling Feng asked curiously: "What’s there to think about? Aunt, haven’t you always wanted me to enter them?"

After smoothly calling her Aunt, Ling Feng found that calling the Abyssal Witch Aunt was not as awkward as he thought.

"Is it the same?" The Abyssal Witch rolled her eyes and said: "Before, I just treated you as an insignificant fellow and invested in you on a whim. Is it the same now? You’re Yunxuan’s husband. If anything happens to you in the Ancient Ruins, how can I explain it to Yunxuan?"

Ling Feng sighed slightly. The harsh truth was really quite poignant.

"Is the Ancient Ruins really dangerous?" Ling Feng asked.

The Abyssal Witch’s expression turned serious: "Dangerous, naturally very dangerous! Previously, our Abyssal Court also sent people into the Ancient Ruins, but even Azure Sky Realm masters had a death rate of as high as forty percent!"

Ling Feng couldn’t help but take a sharp breath, feeling quite terrified!

"The Ancient Ruins consists of broken Small Worlds, many of which have gradually weakening Star Cores. Once a Star Core cannot sustain a Small World, the entire world will explode, with power even a Pinnacle of the Azure Sky Realm master can hardly withstand!" The Abyssal Witch said: "Moreover, Star Core Power is not only what we need, but also what those remaining Small Worlds need!"

"Although there are no Immortal Realm masters among the natives of those Small Worlds, there are masters at the Pinnacle of the Azure Sky Realm. Encountering them will likely lead to a matter of life and death, which is the main reason for the deaths of Azure Sky Realm masters!"

Ling Feng fell silent, as per the Abyssal Witch’s description, the Ancient Ruins was the most dangerous place he had encountered, but also contained unimaginable treasures!

Not to mention the Path of Immortality is in the Ancient Ruins, where Xuanyuan Saint Emperor and others remain, and the Mad Doctor is also in the Ancient Ruins. How could Ling Feng know about the Mad Doctor’s presence and remain indifferent?

"Aunt, you don’t need to persuade me!" Ling Feng said calmly: "I must go to the Ancient Ruins!"

"Are you not afraid after hearing my description?" The Abyssal Witch said: "I admit your current strength is impressive, but your strength may still be inadequate in the Ancient Ruins!"

Ling Feng smiled: "I’m going there not because my strength is strong enough, but because I have to reasons to go! Besides... retreating in the face of danger, such a person will never step onto the path of being a true strongman!"

The Abyssal Witch laughed: "Good, very good! It’s great that you have such an idea, but don’t worry, when you enter the Ancient Ruins, Aunt will protect you and ensure your safety!"

Ling Feng looked at the boastful Abyssal Witch and could only smile bitterly: "Then, I’ll leave the matter of entering the Ancient Ruins in your hands, Aunt!"

...

As Ling Feng left, the figure of the Demon King appeared beside the Witch.

"Brother, why did you agree to let Ling Feng enter the Ancient Ruins, you should know better than I do the crisis hidden within the Ancient Ruins!" At this moment, the Abyssal Witch lost the smile on her face and said seriously.

The Demon King pondered for a moment and said: "Do you think my disagreement would matter? Ling Feng is not someone who follows rules, this is his own choice, and if he wants to enter, no one can stop him!"

"But you instructed Situ Xing to tell Ling Feng that the Mad Doctor is within the Ancient Ruins, right?" The Abyssal Witch turned to the Demon King: "What is your reason for doing this, aren’t you worried about any accidents that might cause Yunxuan lifelong pain?"

"This is something he must endure and face!" The Demon King said calmly: "Ling Feng has excellent potential and intelligence and is a person of great fortune. He even carries the mark of the Dragon God, all these indicate that Ling Feng’s path to rise has many watching over him!"

"But Ling Feng has a fatal weakness, and that weakness is the Mad Doctor!" The Demon King said quietly: "I think no one would believe that the experimental subject in the earth laboratory could make it to this point!"

"But the more one overcomes challenges, the deeper Ling Feng’s obsession with the Mad Doctor!" The Demon King explained: "This is a step he must experience to reach higher levels, I merely advanced this step!"

The Abyssal Witch looked at the Demon King: "Your manipulation... is really too profound!"

"Because my time is limited!" The Demon King said calmly: "Although Ling Feng grows quickly, I want him to grow even faster, so I need him to taste that kind of pain and despair sooner. Only those who can’t be crushed are strong!"

"By the way, you cannot mention this matter to Ling Feng!" The Demon King said to the Witch: "Because Ling Feng’s presence offers a chance for the Abyssal Clan to rise, I won’t let anyone destroy it!"

The Witch sighed: "I understand, Brother! But... I just pity Ling Feng!"

"Pity what? Is there any other little fellow worth my calculating in this world?" The Abyssal Demon King said: "When all truths are revealed, Ling Feng will be grateful to me!"
