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

“Yes.” Li Shuying curled her lip: “If you hadn’t saved him, wouldn’t you have had one less competitor? And look at the way he was just now, he didn’t even say thank you! You were born into a war-torn family like the Ye family, where everyone is cold-blooded and ruthless. If you’re too kind… it will definitely become your fatal weakness in the future!”

Night Song smiled faintly and said, "It would be strange if my demonized brothers and sisters said thank you."

"And you're wrong. Kindness is never a weakness; it's the low level of awareness that makes it a weakness."

"On the contrary, when you have a high level of awareness, kindness can become your most reliable weapon."

"?" Li Shuying blinked. This was the first time she had ever heard someone say that kindness could be used as a weapon.

Night Song smiled: "Kind people are better able to see the softness of human nature and discover the psychological weaknesses of others. Many leaders who are good at manipulating people's hearts, know how to use people, and are good at playing the good cop once had a kind heart. On the other hand, those who lost empathy and compassion in childhood and are extremely selfish have almost degenerated their ability to perceive people's hearts, so their thinking will be more simplistic and crude."

"Of course, if you want to use kindness as a weapon, the premise is that you can't be swayed by kindness. When faced with choices, when you have to protect what's important to you, you have to put your conscience aside when necessary. Even if there are 100,000 innocent people under your feet, you must step over them without stopping and never hesitate."

“Hmm…” Li Shuying nodded blankly, seemingly understanding but not quite.

She didn't fully understand, but she vaguely felt it was quite impressive...

Young Master Yege is really not like a ten-year-old child. He's so amazing! The things he says are so hard to understand...

Ye Ge leaned down and gently touched Bai Xueling's forehead with a finger, sensing the extent of her mental damage.

Blood Spirit Illusion Technique was originally a skill that could cause extremely strong mental impact, but Bai Jian's level was far too different from hers, which is why it backfired like this.

Ye Ge said, "Shu Ying, go and ask the team doctor to brew some more medicine to treat mental strength."

"Oh, alright."

"Yes, there is more."

Ye Ge looked at her again and asked, "How many of your female swordsmen have experience fighting against ghost tamers?"

"Ghost Masters?" Li Shuying thought for a moment. "There should be more than half of them. Why is that?"

Ye Ge downloaded a bag of pills from the system inventory and handed it to her: "Take this and distribute them."

"what is this?"

"Evil-repelling pills, used to ward off the power of ghosts."

"......ha??"

Li Shuying's body trembled involuntarily, and she asked uncomfortably, "Young Master, why are you suddenly sending out this kind of thing? Is there something ghostly about our camp?"

Night Song: "Just send it out."

"Oh......"

After Li Shuying left, Gao Shenxue looked at Ye Ge and asked, "Are those evil-repelling pills meant to deal with Bai Qing?"

Ye Ge asked in surprise, "How did you know?"

Does this girl have mind-reading abilities?

Gao Shenxue: "There is no better child than a mother."

Night Song: "..."

Gao Shenxue looked at him with clear eyes: "When Ye Qingxin and the others were discussing Bai Qing's abilities just now, you didn't seem to find it difficult, which means you already knew about her strength."

“...I see,” Ye Ge touched his nose.

He thought to himself that he would have to pretend to be even more convincing in the future.

Otherwise, if you encounter someone as intelligent as Shenxue's mom, you'll be seen through immediately, and that won't do.

"How did you know she was a ghost tamer?" Gao Shenxue asked curiously. "Was it information that Song Jie and the others brought back?"

Ye Ge smiled.

As a hardcore, top-tier player of the game.

Do characters with NPC and BOSS titles even need intelligence gathering?

......

The next day, the Ye family army rested and recuperated at their camp.

Ye Qingxin, Ye Yulong, Ye Mengyu, Ye Yang and others all dispatched their respective intelligence agents to begin a covert battle where each relied on their own abilities!

Yege, on the other hand, slept soundly in his tent all day long...

I slept from noon until sunset.

As dusk deepened, the orange-red sunset gradually turned into a deep purple, and soon darkness completely enveloped the sky, with the full moon slowly emerging from the hazy clouds on the horizon.

A mid-level warrior from the Ye family shouted at the sentries on night watch in the camp: "Watch out, everyone! The patriarch should be arriving tomorrow, and we'll be launching an attack on Bai City tomorrow. We must be careful of Bai Jian and his gang tonight, and make sure they don't launch another night attack!"

"Yes!" the sentries replied in unison.

Time passed by minute by minute.

The night grew deeper.

Soon it was past midnight.

The Night Family Army's camp was quiet, with only the chirping of insects in the woods. Most of the soldiers were asleep, leaving only a few dozen scouts on guard duty.

The full moon hanging in the sky had turned scarlet at some point, and the blood-red moonlight spread across the earth like a thin veil. The night wind in the woods rustled the shadows of the trees, creating an extremely eerie atmosphere.

"Huh? What...what was that sound?"

The sentries on night watch in the trees outside the camp suddenly became alert.

He vaguely heard rustling sounds, some indescribable whispers moving in his ear, as if someone were speaking softly close to his ear...

Bai Qing's figure appeared silently behind him.

Her figure gradually transformed from semi-transparent to solid.

The sentry's expression became blank; his eyes were empty and lifeless, as if he had lost his soul.

Bai Qing reached out and gently pushed the sentry, who fell from the woods and landed in the grass.

She also flipped in the air and landed without making a sound.

A ghost-like, semi-transparent humanoid creature slowly appeared behind her.

"It looks like the plan is going well."

Bai Qing looked around and then muttered something to herself.

Then she entered the Ye family camp through the main gate.

The camp was eerily quiet. All the sentries stood there blankly, their eyes vacant and lifeless, as if they had completely lost their sense of self. They also ignored Bai Qing as she walked in.
