My beautiful CEO wife

Chapter 1911

The Saintess moved with incredible speed.

Even though she was carrying a coffin-like wooden box on her back, her speed was not slower, but even faster than Xiao Zheng.

This only made Xiao Zheng more and more curious.

After all, with his current strength, there were few in this world who could match his speed. Especially since the opponent was a woman, and a very beautiful one at that.

The two of them thus began a chase.

From within the city to outside its bounds.

By now, they had reached a mountainous forest area, with shadows of trees flickering and hills undulating.

"I told you, you can’t escape from the palm of my hand."

"Don’t waste your effort."

Xiao Zheng laughed, then struck a hand through the air towards the back of the Saintess.

The fierce force unexpectedly condensed midair into a golden shimmering palm print!

Wherever the palm print passed, grass and trees turned to powder!

This strike forced the Saintess to halt in her tracks to fight back. As fast as she was, she couldn’t be faster than Xiao Zheng’s attack. If she kept running, she’d eventually die under this strike.

The Saintess turned around without speaking, and both her jade-like hands struck towards the oncoming palm print!

The terrifying forces collided, and the aftermath rippled visibly outward in all directions. The land beneath them suffered, turning into ruins.

The once solid ground cracked and collapsed, trees shattered, as if the area had been traumatized by an earthquake!

In some severely collapsed spots, clear springs even bubbled up!

"You’ve finally decided to stop?"

"I thought you planned to keep running until you died."

Xiao Zheng slowly walked forward, stopping less than ten meters away from the Saintess.

Hearing this, the Saintess finally spoke, her red lips slightly parted, her voice like an oriole leaving the valley: "I didn’t want to run, I just wanted to find a place to kill you."

"You want to kill me? Are you sure you can do that?" Xiao Zheng asked with a peculiar expression.

The Saintess removed the wooden box from her back, and finally placed it on the ground.

Strangely, though she carried it with such ease, when set on the ground, it made the ground tremble.

What on earth was inside that wooden box?

Xiao Zheng watched her actions with curiosity, not intervening.

The Saintess opened the wooden box and took out a Demon God Statue which was only carved with eyes.

Xiao Zheng was very familiar with this statue.

Previously, when fighting with the Saintess, he had personally shattered a statue of a similar appearance. But compared to the one he’d broken, the current statue appeared much more imposing.

The heaviness here didn’t describe the statue’s weight but its aura.

For a moment, Xiao Zheng even had an illusion.

It was as if what appeared before him was not a mere statue, but the real Demon God from a century ago!

When this strange feeling appeared in Xiao Zheng’s heart, his smile instantly disappeared. Because if his feeling was correct, this statue might bring him significant trouble.

"You intend to use this statue to kill me?"

Xiao Zheng asked.

Hearing this, a flash of devotion and frenzy appeared in the Saintess’s eyes: "Only the Demon God’s arrival can bring eternal peace to the world. I’m not using the statue’s power to kill you, but want the Demon God to grant you everlasting peace!"

Nonsense peace!

Xiao Zheng scorned in his heart and said, "Stop using your sect’s deceitful rhetoric with me. Tell me, what’s your actual status within the Demon God Sect?"

Though he had only met the Saintess twice, he could already guess that she was extraordinary.

After hearing his words, the Saintess no longer concealed it and said, "I am the Saintess of the Demon God Sect, the emissary of the Demon God. I walk the earth on behalf of the Demon God, spreading his teachings."

Upon learning her true identity, even though Xiao Zheng was mentally prepared, he still felt a tinge of shock.

He initially thought that this woman was at most a protector or elder within the Demon God Sect; he never expected her to be the Saintess.

By now, the Saintess had already brought forth the Demon God Statue.

Under the moonlight, the statue appeared increasingly mysterious.

The Saintess then placed her hands on the statue, murmuring incantations. Soon a bizarre scene unfolded, as the statue’s power continuously flowed into the Saintess.

This power was extremely cold, causing even Xiao Zheng to feel a bit chilled.

However, the Saintess seemed unaffected by the cold, still absorbing the statue’s power. In less than a minute, her body became enveloped in frost.

At the same time, her aura gradually strengthened.

From the Peak of Martial Saint, she slowly advanced to a Half-step Supreme Realm, and kept rising!

Yet her face grew increasingly pained; with every increment of the statue’s power absorbed, her expression showed more agony. Even if she managed to fully absorb the statue’s power and gained the power of the Supreme Realm, she would ultimately not escape death.

"Are you crazy?"

"Even if you want to kill me, you don’t have to go to such lengths! If you continue like this, you’ll certainly die!"

Xiao Zheng said with a frown.

Yet the Saintess ignored his words, continuing to absorb the statue’s power. With the last trace of the statue’s power absorbed, the statue shattered, and she became entirely encased in ice.

Boom!

The ice shattered, and the Saintess stepped forward over the broken ice!

Her consciousness was now in a dazed state. The power of the Demon God Statue was extremely strong, temporarily helping her reach the Supreme Realm. But a container can only hold so much, and if stuffed beyond capacity, it will certainly explode.

The Saintess was currently in this form.

Although she now had the power of the Supreme Realm, she could only sustain it for three minutes at most.

If the Saintess couldn’t kill Xiao Zheng within three minutes, she’d succumb to the statue’s power herself!

She clearly knew this outcome long before; otherwise, she wouldn’t have frantically absorbed the statue’s power just now. She had already mentally prepared to perish along with Xiao Zheng before coming.

"Let’s die together."

The Saintess charged toward Xiao Zheng, striking fiercely at him.

Xiao Zheng frowned slightly but didn’t retreat. After exchanging a palm strike with her, he was not at a disadvantage at all, instead seizing the moment to retaliate, landing two consecutive punches on the Saintess!

"Borrowed power ultimately doesn’t belong to you."

"A weak foundation is akin to a castle in the air."

"You can’t kill me, nor will I save you. If there truly is a next life, remember to be born into a good family, and stop cultivating..."

Xiao Zheng sighed, striking the Saintess on her crown.

Blood flowed, and the Saintess closed her eyes on the spot!
