The divine beast recognized its master, and the dragon girl, destined to kill him, went to the spiri

Looking at the man so familiar that he was etched into her very bones, Ye Wanqing's fingers trembled uncontrollably, and the doubts and confusion in her heart gradually became clear at this moment.

Ningyu felt the tremor in its master's heart, and the fan handle vibrated slightly in Ye Wanqing's palm, emitting a soft buzzing sound.

She wanted to speak, to ask him where he had been all this time, to ask him if he had encountered any danger, that he really didn't take her teachings to heart and was willing to become a member of the extraterrestrial demons.

But her throat felt blocked, and she couldn't utter a single word. Only overwhelming shock and astonishment engulfed Ye Wanqing. After a moment, her expression calmed down.

Their eyes met, and they remained silent for a long time.

Jiang Xu stared intently at Ye Wanqing below him, but saw that her expression was complicated, with a hint of something he couldn't decipher. His expression shifted slightly, and his hand, hidden under his sleeve, gradually clenched.

He had expected that when they met again, he would be met with Ye Wanqing's serious criticism, or a hysterical outburst, or perhaps regret for saving his life. However, he never expected her to be so calm.

A calm that seemed to have never cared.

"Jiang Xu, why..."

Jiang Xu was able to control his inner demons. Ye Wan had long suspected his identity, but she had never dared to investigate further. She knew that this was giving him a chance, but for her, it was also giving herself a chance.

An opportunity not to stand against Jiang Xu.

But she told him, she told him!

The Outer Demons of the Heavenly Realm are her bottom line, a bottom line that will never change!

As long as... as long as he gives her a reason, she will believe him and help him suppress the raging demonic energy within him. All she needs is a reason.

A reason that can convince her.

The moment the words fell, the Nine Nether Python beneath Jiang Xu suddenly let out a deafening roar. Its golden vertical pupils stared intently at Ye Wanqing, and the venom on its tongue faintly emitted a strong eerie aura. Its expression was inscrutable. "This is our young emperor."

Jiang Xu's expression was slightly cool. He casually waved his hand, and instantly, the Heavenly Demons who were still rampaging and killing stopped what they were doing and looked at the person who gave the order above them with confusion.

"Young Emperor..."

Ye Wanqing looked somewhat dazed, and a bitter smile gradually appeared on her lips. She had already guessed it, hadn't she?

Young Emperor, son of the Demon Emperor of the Outer Heavenly Realm.

A thousand years ago, the Demon Emperor from beyond the Heavenly Realm wreaked havoc on the Three Realms. Several ancient powerful beings joined forces and spared no effort to seal him away. There is also a divination legend about him, and a legend about his unborn bloodline.

It is said that since the emergence of the extraterrestrial demons of the Heavenly Realm, a demon known as the Young Emperor will become the most talented among all the extraterrestrial demons of the Heavenly Realm.

Upon hearing that Jiang Xu was the young emperor of the Heavenly Realm Outer Demons, Di Siheng showed no reaction. His gaze remained calm and indifferent, as if he already knew.

Jiang Xu remained atop the python's head, his black robes fluttering in the wind. He looked at Ye Wanqing, a faint smile slowly curving his lips. In that smile lay relief, possessiveness, and a touch of madness that Ye Wanqing couldn't comprehend.

"What, don't you need to explain to me?" This voice seemed to have used up all her strength, and it sounded particularly lonely on the empty battlefield.

Jiang Xu lowered his eyes, his expression indifferent, but his heart was churning like a turbulent tide. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and chuckled softly, but the chuckle was tinged with coldness, and his voice was deep and devoid of warmth.

"Everything is just as Master saw it."

Ye Wanqing felt a dull pain in her chest.

"Heh~ Jiang Xu, you know what the extraterrestrial demons of the Heavenly Realm mean to me..."

She watched as the black demonic patterns slowly emerged on Jiang Xu's forehead. The patterns meandered like snakes, and every inch of their spread seemed to leave a mark on her heart.

Suddenly, as if struck by a sudden thought, Di Siheng stepped forward and shielded Ye Wanqing behind him. Holding his natal artifact, his gaze was deep, yet his eyes held a strange glint.

“Wanwan, there’s no need to talk to him anymore. His bloodline is surging, and he has completely recovered the bloodline of the Heavenly Demon. His current strength has broken through the Three Realms.”

His true strength is probably comparable to his peak.

Seeing Ye Wanqing's wary demeanor, especially her clasped hands which seemed like poisoned needles piercing Jiang Xu's eyes, countless fragmented images surged wildly in his mind in the next instant.

Those memories he kept deep in his heart, a scene he least wanted to recall!

Master, how could she? How could she!

"Enough! Di Siheng, it's none of your business to interfere in matters between my master and me!"

The lines behind his ears turned even more crimson due to his emotional turmoil, as if they were about to bleed. Jealousy, like vines, madly coiled around his heart, tightening more and more, almost tearing his reason to shreds.

If it weren't for this man, how could Master have treated him like that? Yes, that's right, it's all this man's fault! What right does he have to be conceived by Master? He doesn't deserve it! He doesn't deserve it!

The ruthlessness in Ye Wanqing's eyes pierced Jiang Xu's heart, and his voice grew increasingly agitated, with demonic energy surging wildly around him.

“Master! If he hadn’t bullied you back then, how could you have conceived his bloodline? If your strength hadn’t been greatly affected during the process of conceiving the bloodline, how could the Lin and Xiao families have been able to harm you back then? It’s all his fault!”

Ye Wanqing's expression hardened. Few people knew that she had been pregnant, so how did Jiang Xu find out?!

Jiang Xu looked at the man standing side by side with Ye Wanqing not far away, and the last trace of warmth in his eyes was completely swallowed up by the thick killing intent.

Yes, as long as we kill Di Siheng, Master will no longer be affected by him. Or, if the Three Realms are destroyed, we can tamper with Master's memories. When Father returns, Father will not harm Master. Yes, in this way, all the problems can be solved.

Once demonic thoughts take root, they grow rampant and unchecked.

"Heh..." Jiang Xu chuckled softly, his voice filled with chilling killing intent. He slowly raised his hand, and dark demonic flames gathered in his palm, growing stronger with his will. "Master, don't blame me. You'll know. I did all this for your own good."

Before the words were even finished, the sky suddenly changed dramatically. The already gloomy sky was now completely covered by demonic energy, and a howling wind whipped up sand and dust.

Beneath the dark peaks, the Nine Nether Python hovered in mid-air, its scales gleaming coldly in the dim light. Its vertical pupils were fixed on Ye Wanqing and Di Siheng below, clearly having sensed Jiang Xu's murderous intent.

"The young emperor's mind is made up, what are you all standing there for!" The Nine Nether Python's voice boomed like thunder, carrying an unquestionable majesty. It slowly raised its massive head and sternly ordered the previously paused extraterrestrial demonic beasts, "Everyone, break!"

In an instant, a fierce battle erupted.

Jiang Xu looked at the swarming demon soldiers, his killing intent intensifying. He leaped into the air, the demonic flames in his palm transforming into a pitch-black demonic sword, which he thrust straight at Di Siheng.

"Di Siheng, today is your death day!"

His voice carried the unique hoarseness of a demon, and every word conveyed a resolute determination.
