A whirlwind, carrying with it the rich immortal energy emanating from the top-grade spiritual vein, raged across the sky above Abandoned Star Island.

Ao Lin looked down at Jiang Yining, who was inside the light barrier, his dark golden vertical pupils churning with undisguised greed and possessiveness. He was like an ancient beast surveying its territory, regarding this stunningly beautiful woman below as a piece of fat meat on his chopping block.

"What? Why don't you obediently remove the formation and come out to serve this emperor?" Ao Lin's lips curled into an extremely arrogant sneer, and the pressure of the Heavenly Monarch Realm was like a raging sea, wave after wave crushing down.

The purple-gold light shield on Abandoned Star Island, which was said to be at the quasi-saint level, actually emitted a teeth-grinding "creaking" sound under the pressure of this terrifying true dragon power, as if it would collapse at any moment.

"My patience is very limited." Ao Lin stood with his hands behind his back, his voice booming like thunder across the entire island. "If you don't know what's good for you and refuse to come with me, I will issue an ironclad order right now to completely cut off all of your Jiang family's trade routes in the demon realm's black market! I'll ensure that your wretched island doesn't even earn a single low-grade star spirit stone, and you'll be trapped and die on this wasteland!"

He leaned forward abruptly, his eyes filled with a sinister and tyrannical glint: "Not only that, I will personally tear apart this turtle shell in front of all these ants under your command, strip you naked, and forcibly take you back to the Dragon Palace! At that time, you won't be so dignified anymore!"

Upon hearing this, the tens of thousands of rogue cultivators and desperate criminals kneeling on Abandoned Star Island were all horrified, trembling like leaves, and even their breathing stopped.

"court death!"

Gu Qinghan's eyes were bloodshot, his gaze almost bursting. His white robes fluttered without wind, and the pure yang essence within him was like a volcano that had been completely detonated, with the Haotian Pure Yang True Fire surging wildly, even causing the surrounding space to collapse inch by inch due to this raging fire.

"You lowly worm, how dare you spout such nonsense!" Yu Luofeng's eerie face twisted to the extreme, and the ghostly aura of the semi-saint level condensed behind him into a terrifying thousand-foot-tall Asura dharma image. He actually burned his life essence blood without hesitation, preparing to perish together with this high and mighty Dragon Emperor.

On the other side, Su Chenzhou's burly body suddenly grew taller, the Primordial Starfire roared wildly within him, and his dark golden eyes were filled with a frenzied killing intent that seemed to devour anyone in its path.

The three male protagonists have completely gone on the verge of losing control in order to protect their women!

Just at that critical moment, when the three were about to soar into the sky.

Jiang Yining's slender hand, which was behind her back, moved with lightning speed, her long fingertips flitting like butterflies flitting among flowers, and in an instant, she secretly formed an ancient and complex stopping array.

"Stop! Hold your positions!"

A cold divine sense, carrying the pressure of the Profound Light Realm, slammed into the sea of ​​consciousness of Gu Qinghan and the other two like a heavy hammer.

"Ning'er! How can I tolerate him humiliating you like this!" Gu Qinghan's mind struggled violently, and the veins on the back of his hand holding the sword bulged.

"If you make a move now, Abandoned Star Island will be reduced to dust in an instant! Do you want the twins to be buried with you?" Jiang Yining's divine sense was cold and resolute, carrying an unquestionable iron order, firmly locking down the three people's violent source power.

After forcibly suppressing the desperate counterattacks of the three male protagonists, Jiang Yining slowly raised her eyes and looked at Ao Lin in mid-air again.

The moment she looked up, her cold and aloof demeanor suddenly changed.

A layer of crystal-clear mist appeared perfectly in her purple-gold eyes, which seemed to contain a galaxy of stars. She tilted her head slightly, her long, snow-white neck as delicate as a frightened fawn. Her full, bright red lower lip was gently bitten by her pearly teeth, leaving a faint white mark.

She didn't speak, but instead gave Ao Lin a deep look with a gaze filled with resentment, humiliation, and helplessness under the absolute power of the Heavenly Monarch Realm.

That glance was like the most deadly poison in the world, piercing Ao Lin's nerve, a nerve belonging to a male demon beast.

"boom!"

Seeing this high and mighty flower, who could even annihilate the Protoss vanguard with her bare hands, now forced to show a submissive posture in front of him, Ao Lin's desire to conquer exploded and rushed straight to the top of his head!

Awesome! This is the most comfortable feeling I've ever experienced before!

Ao Lin arrogantly raised his chin, his ego swelling to an extreme. He naturally assumed that it was his unparalleled and terrifying power and invincible martial prowess that had completely subdued this proud and arrogant woman.

He glanced disdainfully at Gu Qinghan and the other two below, who were being suppressed by Jiang Yining, trembling all over but "daring not" to make a move, and mocked mercilessly: "What? You bunch of useless mistresses can't even protect your own woman, and can only watch her leave with this emperor? What a pathetic bunch of trash!"

Gu Qinghan and the others were so angry that their teeth bled and their eyes almost dripped blood, but they could only swallow their anger because of Jiang Yining's death order.

Jiang Yining took a deep breath, a single tear sliding gracefully down her cheek. She bowed slightly, her voice tinged with a pitiful pleading and probing: "Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor holds supreme power, and I, a humble woman, would naturally dare not disobey. However… my Abandoned Star Island has just been ravaged by war, and everything is in ruins. The tens of thousands of people on the island, along with my newborn child, desperately need a massive amount of resources to feed their families. If Your Majesty cuts off our trade routes, we will all starve to death."

These words were both veiled and direct. She was using her own compromise as a bargaining chip to obtain resources for survival on Abandoned Star Island.

Hearing the stunning beauty forced to beg for mercy from him for the sake of making a living, Ao Lin's vanity was satisfied like never before.

In order to fully demonstrate the boundless resources and wealth of the Demon Realm Supreme in front of this beauty he was about to acquire, Ao Lin let out a deafening burst of maniacal laughter.

"Hahaha! So you're short of money? Woman, you should have said so earlier! With me by your side, you'll never have to worry about resources!"

Ao Lin was extremely arrogant, and his large hand, adorned with the Nine Dragons Ring, suddenly grabbed fiercely in the void!

"Boom—!"

The sky was once again torn open, creating a terrifying black hole tens of thousands of feet in diameter.

Immediately afterwards, a full twenty top-grade spiritual veins, radiating dazzling light and as thick as ancient mountain ranges, surged out of the black hole like twenty roaring galaxies!

Each of these top-grade spiritual veins contains terrifying immortal spiritual energy that is enough to drive a True Monarch Realm expert mad. They intertwine together, crashing down on the vast plaza of Abandoned Star Island like a torrential downpour!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The earth trembled violently, and the entire Abandoned Star Island was instantly submerged in an incredibly dense liquid spiritual energy. Dazzling light shot into the sky, illuminating the surrounding sea area for tens of thousands of miles as if it were daytime.

The entire room fell silent!

Whether they were kneeling rogue cultivators or seasoned outlaws who had seen it all, they were all stunned by the astonishing wealth, their minds went blank, and their eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets.

"Twenty...twenty top-grade spiritual veins...that's enough to buy half of the Middle Realm!" An old cultivator stammered, nearly fainting.

This is the true power of the supreme being of the demon realm! His every move is truly earth-shattering!

Looking at the mountain of top-grade spiritual veins, a triumphant gleam suddenly burst forth from the depths of Jiang Yining's usually lowered eyes.

This is a huge profit!

Without hesitation, under the cover of her wide sleeves, she secretly gave a sharp wink to Mo Xie, the mechanical puppet who had remained silent behind her.

A faint red light flashed in Moye's cold, mechanical eyes, and the core gears meshed silently.

The next second, an extremely concealed and enormous spatial array fluctuation silently activated along the earth's veins.

Those twenty top-grade spiritual veins that crashed onto the plaza, still radiating an astonishing light, were swallowed whole by an invisible behemoth. Under the cover of Ao Lin's arrogant laughter, they were all absorbed by Mo Xie into the top-tier storage array specially made by the Jiang family, leaving not even a single fragment of spiritual crystal the size of a fingernail for the demon realm.

The Jiang family's coffers, already depleted due to the large-scale troop buildup, were stretched to the point of exploding in an instant.

After confirming that all her wealth was safely in her pocket, Jiang Yining slowly closed her eyes and let out a long, resigned sigh.

"Since Your Majesty is so generous, this humble woman... is willing to leave with Your Majesty."

"Excellent! What a sensible and beautiful woman!"

Seeing this, Ao Lin could no longer suppress the burning desire in his heart. He let out a deafening laugh, and his figure tore through space as if by teleportation, instantly appearing in front of Jiang Yining.

He stretched out his thick arm, like an iron clamp, and tightly embraced Jiang Yining's incredibly slender waist, which was so delicate it could be grasped in one hand. The domineering and fierce aura of the true dragon instantly soared into the sky, directly blasting Gu Qinghan and the others who wanted to pounce on him away more than a hundred feet away.

"My beauty, let's return to the palace!"

Ao Lin laughed wildly, holding the stunning beauty in his arms. The two transformed into an extremely dazzling golden streak of light, instantly tearing through the clouds and disappearing into the vast sky.
