Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

The birthday banquet was halfway through.

Ye Shengxiong seized an opportunity to slip out of the banquet hall and, seeing that no one was paying attention, silently went to the kitchen.

After entering, he looked around and, seeing no movement, walked to a stove or boiler and took out a tube of medicine.

This is a soup that Ye Quan drinks every day. It is made by simmering various rare and precious ingredients and is very helpful for cultivation.

The medicine in Ye Shengxiong's hand is also a slow-acting drug developed by the gene company. It is colorless, odorless, and undetectable, so even a Saint Realm expert cannot detect it!

This medicine needs to be taken once a month, and it also needs to be used in conjunction with a special incantation.

In the first few years, the user will not experience any symptoms. It is only after taking the product for seven or eight years that the soul power nodes and meridians in the body will fail and the user will die, and the cause will be completely unknown.

The medicine is absolutely odorless; the only thing to be careful about is not getting caught when administering it.

The cursed seal requires being very close to the target and maintaining that position for a period of time to activate successfully. Therefore, only very close people can cast the cursed seal safely and without arousing suspicion.

That's why Ye Shengxiong was so eager to please and get close to Ye Quan just now.

Because he will have to maintain a close relationship with his grandfather for the next few years.

Ye Shengxiong sneered.

When that old bastard Ye Quan dies.

Night Owl was killed by Duke Wang En's men.

The position of head of the Ye family is definitely his! He is the only one who can inherit the title of Lord of Ye City and the title of Viscount!

As for that little brat Ye Ge?

Ye Shengxiong has never taken him seriously!

He is now a cultivator with S-level talent.

Night Song was no longer enough in his eyes!

Without the protection of Night Owl and Night Spring, this little brat is nothing more than an ant that he can crush at will!

Thinking this, Ye Shengxiong opened the bottle of medicine, preparing to pour the colorless liquid inside.

"Cousin, what are you doing?"

A childlike, innocent voice suddenly rang out.

Ye Shengxiong shuddered, nearly dropping the potion in his hand in fright!

Ye Ge had already stood at the kitchen doorway without anyone noticing.

It has a small body, a fair and pretty face, a tilted head, and a simple yet puzzled look in its eyes. A crow and a white cat are perched on its two shoulders.

"N-nothing..."

Ye Shengxiong quickly hid the medicine in his sleeve, put it away, and turned around with a stiff smile.

The head chef then came in from outside.

He was stunned as soon as he entered the door; he hadn't expected that Ye Ge and Ye Shengxiong would both be in the kitchen.

"Young Master Yege, Young Master Shengxiong, what brings you both to the kitchen?" The head chef, a fat man, wiped the grease and sweat from his face and said with an awkward smile.

He had absolutely no idea that Yoshio was suspicious.

After all, Ye Shengxiong is Ye Quan's grandson. Who would have thought that someone would harm their own family?

Ye Ge said in a very innocent voice, "My cousin wanted to play a game of 'catch the traitor' with me, so he hid here, and I just happened to catch him!"

The head chef didn't think much of it: "Oh, I see..."

"Yes...yes..." Ye Shengxiong had no choice but to go along with it.

However, he quickly realized the problem with Ye Ge's words.

A game of catching the mole...

Is this kid hinting at something?!

Shouldn't it be...right?

This guy is just a ten-year-old kid after all, how could he have so many thoughts?

It's probably just a coincidence...

After the two left the kitchen, Ye Ge walked ahead and was about to return to the banquet hall when she suddenly turned around and asked, "Cousin, what was that thing you were holding just now? Were you trying to help Grandpa prepare his herbal medicine?"

Ye Shengxiong's pupils suddenly contracted.

Cold sweat instantly seeped out from my back...

Ye Ge didn't wait for Ye Shengxiong's reply, but just smiled faintly at him before walking into the banquet hall.

Only Ye Shengxiong remained standing there, his face grim and his fists clenched.

......

Back to the banquet hall.

Throughout the entire banquet, Ye Shengxiong remained absent-minded.

Ye Shengxiong's mind kept replaying Ye Ge's words.

Although he didn't think a ten-year-old could be cunning.

But if this kid goes and tells his grandpa something out of line, then he'll be in big trouble!

Ye Shengxiong knew that he had to avoid this kind of trouble.

We should at least scare the kid and tell him not to go around talking nonsense!

He believed that a ten-year-old child should be easily frightened.

After the birthday banquet, Ye Shengxiong found an opportunity to confront Ye Ge alone, cornering him in a room.

"Cousin?" Ye Ge asked, puzzled. "Is there anything else?"

Ye Shengxiong smiled and first launched an emotional attack: "Little Ye, how did your cousin treat you before?"

Ye Ge thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "It's not that great. When I was three years old, my cousin even took my toy from me. I remember it all."

Ye Shengxiong: "..."

"...Since you know your cousin is fierce and has a bad temper, you should obediently do as your cousin says, understand!?"

Ye Shengxiong simply dropped the pretense and put on a fierce expression: "What did you just see?"

"just?"

"It happened in the kitchen!"

"Oh, you mean you put medicine in Grandpa's soup?"

"!!"

Ye Shengxiong's eyes widened: "Who said I drugged you?! Do you have any evidence? You can't just say things without evidence, understand?!"

Ye Ge smiled slightly: "Don't worry, cousin, I won't tell."

"You'd better not tell!" Ye Shengxiong said darkly. "Besides, you have no evidence, and Grandpa won't believe you. Also, if you dare to tell Grandpa about what happened between us today, don't blame me for being impolite as your older brother!"

As he spoke, he suddenly pressed down on Ye Ge's head.

He pressed down hard, his five fingers digging deep into Ye Ge's slightly long hair, and then pulled hard on his hair.

Ye Shengxiong glared at Ye Ge with fierce eyes, while exuding a terrifying and evil demonic aura.

As a demonic cultivator in the Earth Realm, his "Devouring Yin Demon Art" is extremely dark and evil. Under the influence of his demonic energy, ordinary Xuan Realm transcendents would directly enter a state of "fear," and their legs would subconsciously go weak and tremble, making it impossible for them to stand up.

Ye Ge didn't seem to react much. Ye Shengxiong's large hand was pulling his hair forcefully, but his eyes didn't seem to change much. There was neither fear nor cowardice, nor anger.

His eyes were as clear as a still pond, as he quietly met Ye Shengxiong's gaze.

Ye Ge smiled faintly: "I won't tell on you, as long as you don't."

Ye Shengxiong was slightly taken aback, not understanding what he meant.

Before he could react, Ye Ge had already kicked out with lightning speed!

next moment......

The excruciating pain quickly spread from the lower body to the rest of the body...

"ah......!!!"

A hysterical, piercing scream.

Ye Ge felt that it was the most tragic scream he had ever heard in both his lives.
