Ali stood in the middle of the ruined hall like a demon god who had just descended.
The black Primordial Chaos Sword floated beside him, releasing waves of murderous aura that made everyone's soul tremble.
Sophia, the former number-one genius, was now lying flat on the ground, her expensive purple robe soaked with cold sweat.
"Im… impossible… how can a trash like you…"
Her voice was shaking so much she couldn't even complete the sentence.
Ali looked at her with pity, just like looking at an ant that was about to be crushed.
"Sophia, right?"
He slowly walked forward. Every step he took made the floor crack.
"Three years ago you said you would rather marry a dog than a trash like me."
"Today, I'll give you a chance."
He raised one finger.
"Kneel down, call me Ancestor three times, and lick the floor clean… I'll let you leave alive."
The entire Lin Family members watching from the sides almost fainted from shock.
This… this was still the same coward young master who used to hide when someone shouted at him?!
Sophia's face turned purple with humiliation. She was the proud daughter of heaven! How could she kneel to a trash?!
"I'd rather die!" she screamed and tried to bite her tongue to commit suicide.
But before she could even move…
[Ding! Detected host's first face-slapping moment]
[Reward: Luck Plunder Card ×1 (Can steal 50% luck from one person permanently)]
Ali grinned.
"Die? You're not qualified."
He flicked his finger.
Swish!
The Luck Plunder Card turned into golden light and instantly entered Sophia's body.
"Aaahhhhh—!!!"
Sophia suddenly screamed. Her body started glowing, then all the golden light of luck rushed out and flew straight into Ali's chest.
Her original purple-grade luck directly dropped to grey (worst possible)!
At the same time, Ali's luck value jumped from 5 → 10,000+!
[Ding! Host's luck is now Heaven-Defying level!]
[Daily sign-in reward multiplied by 100×!]
Ali's eyes shone brightly.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Day 1 sign-in successful!]
[Normal reward: 1000 spirit stones → Multiplied by 100 = 100,000 spirit stones!]
[Normal reward: Random Saint-grade pill → Multiplied by 100 = 100 × Nine Revolution Golden Pills!]
[Hidden reward activated because of heaven-defying luck: Heavenly Dao Fragment ×1]
A colourful fragment the size of a fingernail appeared in Ali's palm.
Just holding it made the entire Azure Cloud City tremble for a second!
Even the white-haired Spirit Sea Realm elder, Elder Lu, fell on his knees.
"T-this… this is a Heavenly Dao Fragment?! Only Immortal Emperors can touch this thing!"
Ali casually put the fragment into his system inventory and smiled at the kneeling elder.
"Old dog, didn't you want to cripple my dantian a few minutes ago?"
Elder Lu's face turned green. He immediately kowtowed until his forehead bled.
"Young… Young Ancestor! This old slave was blind! Please spare this old life!"
Ali didn't even look at him. He turned to the Lin Family patriarch and elders who were shaking in the corner.
"From today onwards, I am the new patriarch of the Lin Family. Any objections?"
No one dared to breathe loudly.
"Good."
He waved his hand, and 100,000 spirit stones appeared in a mountain in the courtyard.
"This is my meeting gift to the family. From now on, anyone who follows me will eat meat. Anyone who betrays me… will become fertilizer."
All the Lin Family members instantly knelt down and shouted:
"We greet Ancestor Ali!!!"
Sophia was still lying on the ground, her eyes empty. All her talent and luck had been stolen. From today, she was worse than a mortal.
Ali stepped over her body and walked outside.
Before leaving, he said one last sentence:
"Tell the Sophia Family… in seven days, I will personally visit to collect my 10 million spirit stones.
If they can't pay… I'll take their entire family's luck instead."
The moment he stepped out of the gate, the system voice rang again.
[Ding! New function unlocked: Demon King Shop]
[Current points: 50,000 (from face-slapping Sophia and Elder Lu)]
[Do you want to open the shop?]
Ali stopped walking and laughed loudly toward the sky.
"Open!"
A black and gold interface appeared in front of his eyes.
First item on the list:
[Bloodline: Primordial Chaos Demon God Bloodline – Price: 1,000,000 points (Current discount 90% → 100,000 points)]
Ali's breathing became heavy.
If he gets this bloodline… forget Azure Cloud Continent, the entire upper realm will have to kneel!
But he only had 50,000 points right now.
"Looks like I need to slap a few more faces."
He looked toward the direction of the Sophia Family, his red eyes flashing with demonic light.
"Seven days… is more than enough to prepare a big gift for them."
In the sky, dark clouds suddenly gathered. Lightning shaped like black dragons roared.
The entire city felt it.
A supreme demon king… had awakened!
