He Would Rather Die
"Mo Wu wins!"
The old man beside the arena announced the end of the competition.
As the old man beside the arena shouted, he officially announced the end of the competition.
The skinny man did not lose in terms of cultivation level. He lost in terms of Poison Ability!
The Heaven Level Poison Ability was comparable to the Acquired Saint Ability. It was equivalent to the inheritance of a Great Saint. How could he resist it?
The competition was over, and Mo Wu was the champion. This meant that he would become the Holy Son of the Dark Shadow Demon Sect. Moreover, he could marry the most beautiful woman of the Dark Shadow Demon Sect, Qing Wu.

Mo Wu slowly walked towards the unconscious man. He bent down and placed his hand on the man's forehead. Wisps of stinky black Poison Ability were sucked out of the man's body.

Looking at the man's tightly furrowed brows, Mo Wu's lips curved into a smile, and a sharp glint flashed across his eyes.
This skinny man was already a threat to his existence. If he allowed him to become a Heaven Level Poison Master, he would lose his position as the champion!
As a Holy Son, he was inferior to a candidate for the Holy Son. Given his arrogance, how could he accept this?
Immediately, he began to calculate in his heart. Pressing his palm on the forehead of the skinny man, a wisp of invisible black Qi seeped into the skinny man's body. After which, he rapidly raised his hand and increased the suction force. After a short while, the skinny man's face recovered its rosy color.
"Haha!"
With a gentle smile on his face, Mo Wu pulled up the skinny man, who was in a daze, and they both stood on the arena.
Seeing how generous he was, the elders on the platform nodded. Even the Holy Lord of Shadows was very satisfied with his performance. She stood up.
"I hereby announce that Mo Wu is the champion of the Sacred Fire Festival!"
A loud voice rang out from his mouth like a clap of thunder, resounding through the entire area. The smile on Mo Wu's face grew even wider as he stared straight at the beautiful figure seated on the platform. A fiery light flashed across his eyes.
This charming woman was pursued by all the young disciples of the Dark Shadow Devil Sect. Today, he had finally obtained her. When he thought of this, he was extremely excited, and hot air came out of his nostrils!
"A few days ago, it was announced that after the unanimous decision of our Holy Church's elders, the champion of this competition will also become the Holy Son of our Holy Church. At the same time, he will be able to marry the Holy Lady!"
The Holy Lord of Shadows spoke again, and the eyes of some of the young disciples dimmed.
"Next is the engagement ceremony. The day the Holy Fire Festival ends is the day the Holy Son and the Saintess get married!"
His expression was dignified as he scanned the crowd and spoke joyfully. In an instant, the place was filled with compliments and congratulations.
"Mo Wu, step forward!"
The Holy Lord of Shadows' voice was firm. Mo Wu jumped off the stage with a face full of joy and walked up the stairs.
"Greetings, Saint Lord!"
He knelt down in front of the Holy Lord of Shadows and called out respectfully.
"In the name of the Holy Lord of the Holy Church of Shadows, I hereby appoint Mo Wu as the Holy Son of the Holy Church of Shadows!"
The loud voice resounded throughout the place, and everyone knelt down immediately.
"The Holy Church has no boundaries, the Holy Lord has no boundaries, and the Holy Son has no boundaries!"
Hundreds of thousands of people shouted together. Their voices were like thunder, rolling and echoing for thousands of miles.
"From now on, you are the Holy Son of the Holy Church of Shadows!"
The Holy Lord of Shadows stepped forward and helped Mo Wu up as she spoke with a smile.
"Mo Wu thanks the Holy Lord for your favor!"
Mo Wu was overjoyed, and his face lit up with joy as he hurriedly thanked her respectfully.
"Mm!"
The Holy Lord of Shadows nodded in satisfaction before calling out to the crowd, "Everyone, please rise!"
"Thank you, Holy Lord!
Only then did everyone stand up in unison.
"Holy Lady!"
"Holy Lady?"
"Holy Lady?!"
The Holy Lord of Shadows's face darkened when no one answered. The joy on the faces of the elders sitting on the steps also faded as they all looked in the same direction.
Her face was haggard, and there was no color in her face. Her eyes were empty as if she had lost her soul. She sat there in a daze, quietly looking at the blue sky as if she hadn't heard the Holy Lord of Shadows's call.
"Holy Lady? Holy Lady? The Holy Lord is calling you! "
Seeing this, Lan Xun reached out a hand and shook her gently, calling out to her in a low voice.
After a long time, Qing Wu's eyes dimmed, and he slowly turned to look at her.
"You're engaged. Quickly stand up and thank the Lord!"
Lan Xun said in a low voice.
"Engaged?"
Qing Wu's delicate body trembled slightly. "No! I won't get engaged! "
She shook her head and said firmly.
Everyone looked at her in shock. The Holy Lord of Shadows's expression darkened as well.
"Hmph!"
He snorted heavily, turned to the crowd, and said, "I announce that the Holy Son and the Holy Lady are engaged and will get married on a later date!"
"No! No way! "
Qing Wu stood up in a huff. Her reaction was very strong.
"It's not up to you!"
The Holy Lord of Shadows's face was gloomy as he shouted.
He didn't expect Qing Wu to ignore the big picture. Even if this ceremony was over, she would become a laughingstock.
The Holy Lady was being forced to get married!
"I'm already someone else's wife, so I can't get engaged!"
Qing Wu took a deep breath as a sickly red appeared on her pale face. She spoke lightly in front of hundreds of thousands of people. "You're right. You're right.
The Holy Lady must remain chaste.
This was the Holy Lady's rule.
If she lost her chastity to anyone other than the Holy Son, the Holy Lady would be executed by the Holy Church and burned alive!
"What nonsense are you talking about?!"
Lan Xun stood up in a panic. She wanted to stop her, but it was too late.
Everyone stared at her in astonishment. The Holy Lord of Shadows's expression was extremely dark, and all the elders stood up. Mo Wu's face lost its previous magnanimity. The corners of his mouth twitched, and his expression was hideous.
"I'm not talking nonsense!"
Qing Wu said lightly with a bitter smile on her pretty face. "Qing Meng is actually my biological daughter!"
"Wow! …"
Suddenly, there was an uproar.
If it was proven, then Qing Wu would have no choice but to die!
The Holy Church's rule had been passed down since ancient times, and even the Holy Lord couldn't change it!
She was asking for death!
She would rather die than get engaged!
Mo Wu's expression was extremely interesting. His eyes were bloodshot like a beast that was about to devour its prey.
The Holy Lord of Shadows, Lan Xun, and the Founding Elders all looked at her in shock.
Was it true?
They looked at each other when they saw the determination in Qing Wu's eyes.
