Perfect Villain Life: Universal Job Change

Chapter 228: Serve Me, Abyssal Queen

If she could obtain the favor of a Void Overlord, the Abyssal Queen could evolve once more. This was far more efficient than merely sharing Divine Revelation Data to break through her evolutionary barriers.

In the Chaotic Factions, Void Overlords were the supreme deities. Those who were chosen as Champions by a Void Overlord could evolve instantly, becoming some of the most powerful beings in the universe.

Take, for example, the Lord of Bloodshed, the ruler of the Third Royal Court. His champion, Yuric the Blood Beauty, had once been nothing more than a common Chaos warrior. Yet, after being chosen and blessed by the Lord of Bloodshed, he had evolved overnight into a Void Lord.

Now, he commanded the Blood Legion, which had already conquered countless worlds.

Though Qin Xian was merely a juvenile Void Overlord, he still possessed this authority.

To the Abyssal Queen, he was the key to her evolution. However, she no longer dared to force anything.

Setting aside the fact that Qin Xian himself was a Void Overlord, the greater issue was his backing—the First Void Royal Court and, more terrifyingly, the Void Empress of Dread. Disrespecting Qin Xian meant provoking the Void Empress herself. And that was a consequence no being in the universe could afford.

Qin Xian watched the submissive Abyssal Queen with amusement, a faint smile tugging at his lips.

With deliberate slowness, he extended his hand and lifted her up, feeling the soft warmth of her body as he did so. The corner of his mouth curled, “I can feel the desire for evolution in your bloodline…”

Even though the Abyssal Queen was already a Demon Progenitor, Qin Xian’s words sounded like the whispers of an eldritch god, subtly stirring her deepest desires.

A Void Overlord’s voice carried a natural allure, an innate dominion over the will of others.

“Pledge loyalty to the First Royal Court,” Qin Xian’s voice lowered, his words weaving through her mind like a spell, “and perhaps… in the future, I may elevate your existence even further.”

A tremor ran through the Abyssal Queen’s soul. For reasons she could not explain, the desire for evolution surged within her, overwhelming her with longing.

She gazed at Qin Xian’s handsome yet eerily unsettling features, then lowered her head deeply.

“The Abyss submits to the First Void Royal Court, Your Highness.”

Qin Xian observed her obedient demeanor and nodded in satisfaction. With this, he had secured a temporary alliance with the Abyss.

Yet, looking at the Abyssal Queen’s docile expression, her appearance as if she were an offering waiting to be claimed, Qin Xian’s eyes flashed with mockery.

He knew exactly what she was thinking. She wasn’t truly devoted. After existing for countless eons, how could she possibly be genuinely infatuated?

She was merely using him—seeking to leverage his bloodline to further her own evolution.

However, Qin Xian did not mind. After all, the Abyss, though technically a branch of the Void, had grown tremendously powerful over millions of years.

The Demon Race was endless, multiplying at an extraordinary rate. Among the Greater Demons, there were many formidable Demon Lords.

If one were to compare raw strength, the Abyss alone could rival half the power of a Void Royal Court.

It was worth investing in. If he could secretly take control of the Abyss, it would be highly beneficial for his future plans.

Besides, the Abyssal Queen was quite the beauty.

Qin Xian’s voice dropped into a sultry whisper, carrying a hypnotic undertone.

“Serve me, Mortana,” he murmured, his words laced with irresistible temptation, “and you shall receive benefits beyond your imagination…”

The Divine Demon Trial space was in complete disarray.

The moment Qin Xian had been pulled into the Cycle of Despair by the Abyssal Queen, the remaining prodigies had immediately fled toward the exit of the trial grounds.

Of course, not many had survived.

In less than an hour, the Abyssal Queen had slaughtered nearly all of the human prodigies participating in the trial.

The sheer scale of the massacre was unprecedented—the implications for humanity would be catastrophic.

“We should leave as well,” Qin Li stated calmly, preparing to exit with Yin Yingxin.

Yin Yingxin hesitated. Though she understood the danger of the Abyssal Queen, she couldn’t help but worry.

“But… Lord Qin Xian…”

Qin Li shook her head, her voice serene and unwavering, “There is no need to worry about my brother. He will not lose.”

Yin Yingxin was momentarily stunned. She hadn’t expected Qin Li’s absolute confidence in Qin Xian.

Though she herself had been shocked by Qin Xian’s display of power, having seen him overwhelm the Abyssal Queen, she was still deeply aware of the true terror the Abyssal Queen represented.

Yet, seeing Qin Li’s composure, she reluctantly nodded. After all, no one understood Qin Xian better than his sister. The two quickly departed, making their way out of the Divine Demon Trial grounds.

Along the way, as they passed through fields of lifeless corpses, Yin Yingxin’s heart tensed.

So many geniuses had perished. The Chu Clan would not emerge from this unscathed.

Though Chu Sitian ensured the clan’s survival, their reputation was bound to plummet. This could very well be an opportunity for the Yin Clan.

A spark of ambition ignited in Yin Yingxin’s gaze. Would this be the chance for her family to rise?

Just as they were about to leave, a tremor shook the trial space.

A moment later, Qin Xian and the Abyssal Queen emerged from the Cycle of Despair. There was a subtle flush on the Abyssal Queen’s face, an unnatural crimson that suggested she had been… injured.

She gazed deeply at Qin Xian, her expression unreadable, before abruptly transforming into black mist and retreating toward the Abyssal Domain at full speed.

As she vanished, she left behind a final, furious proclamation, “Human… I will remember you!!!”
