Chapter 1742 - The Third Cursed Goddess! (1/2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A duke of District A finally showed up. She was Duchess Tianlian, the supporter who stood behind Soul.

As soon as this woman appeared, all the nobles sucked in their breath. They knew it was over. The chef had no hope to win this, even with the help of Marquis Lang Gu and the puppet who could fight the twin brothers.

Cursed Goddess Soul stood on the chariot and looked at Bu Fang coldly. “I did not expect you to make it to District A,” she said indifferently.

Bu Fang’s appearance here surprised her. However, she could not say she did not expect this. As Nethery’s only supporter besides Duchess Yunlan, it seemed natural for him to survive, though she had sent many experts to kill him. But at least that was fun, wasn’t it?

Bu Fang shook his head. He had nothing to say to Soul. How could he sit back and do nothing when this girl wanted to kill Nethery? Therefore, they were destined to be enemies. He was too lazy to talk to her, so this made him somewhat aloof.

Soul did not care about Bu Fang’s attitude.

Nethery walked out of the restaurant with Xiao Ai and stood at Bu Fang’s side. She raised her head and looked at the other Cursed Goddess straight in the eye without showing any fear.

They were both Cursed Goddesses, but their status was worlds apart. Soul’s power in Void City crushed Nethery’s. Apart from the fact that they each had the support of a duke, Nethery could not even see Soul’s tail.

In fact, Soul did not see Nethery as a competitor either. The only competitor she cared about was the one from the Primitive Universe. However, she did not mind getting rid of Nethery first. It was always good to have one less competitor.

She turned to Marquis Lang Gu, who had transformed into a huge demon. “You’ve disappointed me, marquis. Why did you choose to stand against me?” she said, frowning.

Marquis Lang Gu turned back to his human form, wrapped himself in a robe, and sighed. “Your Excellency… Little Moti’s death is a great blow to me. You know I have a good relationship with her,’ he said.

“But you don’t have to stand against me… That will get you to a point beyond redemption,” Soul said. Her aura was fluctuating. Anyone who stood against her would have to die.

“I was a little confused before this… But now I’m sure of it. Maybe I’m doing this for… faith,” Marquis Lang Gu said.

“Ridiculous… Your faith should be me,” Soul said. Her tone was intensely aggressive, but no one felt it was wrong. “Aunt Lian… Kill them all!” she said.

With Duchess Tianlian here, killing these people was extremely easy. “I can’t believe you’ve even opened a restaurant in District A. There is no need for such heretics to stay,” Soul said coldly. The ancient beast pulling her chariot roared as well.

The nobles fell silent. The arrival of Soul had decided the ending, and the presence of Duchess Tianlian had tipped the scales of victory completely.

If Nethery’s guardian was here, she might be able to fight them, but no one knew where Duchess Yunlan was now. The victor of the battle had been decided. How were a marquis, a puppet, and a chef going to defeat a top Chaotic Saint? It was simply a fool’s dream.

Duchess Tianlian sighed as she took a deep look at Nethery, who appeared to be calm. In fact, she quite liked this Cursed Goddess, but unfortunately… With a flick of her finger, a petal fell from her hand, drifting down toward the ground.

Marquis Lang Gu’s pupils constricted. There was an impassable gap between a duke and a marquis, which was not as small as the difference between a count and a marquis. In fact, every duke was the top expert of Void City, an existence that no one dared to offend.

Countess Xia Qiu was very strong, not weaker than a marquis. However, even the strongest of the three marquises could not touch a duke. For countless years, there were only three dukes in Void City, for it was extremely difficult to advance further at their level.

“I’ll take this opportunity to experience the strength of a duke today!” Marquis Lang Gu roared. His clothes were torn once again as he transformed into a great demon. Then, he slapped the ground with both hands and rushed toward the petal.

Duchess Tianlian sighed and watched indifferently as the great demon soared into the sky and shot toward the petal.

The petal looked weightless, but it brought tremendous pressure to Marquis Lang Gu. He felt as if it carried the weight of the entire starry sky, which pushed him back down to the ground.

His legs grew extremely heavy and sank into the earth, while the pressure kept pushing at him. Gradually, he turned back to his human form. Suddenly, he coughed up a mouthful of blood and was knocked flying backward.

The petal continued to drift down, heading straight toward Bu fang.

Marquis Lang Gu fell to the ground, his face ashen. Sure enough, the gap between him and a duke was too huge.

Standing in midair, Soul’s expression remained unchanged. Marquis Lang Gu used to be her man, but he had betrayed her now—she no longer cared if he lived or died.

Previously, when Marquis Lang Gu came to her for help, she could do something. However, Marquis Moti’s death was not necessarily a bad thing for her.

When a marquis was dead, it meant there was a vacancy to fill, and many people would fight to fill it. She could provide the vacancy to one of these people, as long as the person vowed to support her.

Therefore, Marquis Moti’s death was actually a good thing for her. And because of that, she refused to help Marquis Lang Gu. Her decision had led to his betrayal, but she also obtained more support from others. She did not suffer any loss.

As the petal flew across the air, the void shattered silently. Although it appeared to be weightless, it carried mighty power. Bu Fang felt the pressure, and he narrowed his eyes.
