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

Li Liao was still in shock.

Why does just one glance into this little demon's eyes give me the feeling of a lone, wandering wolf straying into a dragon's lair?

Ye Ge remained calm, but there was a hint of a half-smile in her calm eyes.

'What...what's going on in your mind...?' Li Liao asked, his face filled with fear.

'What's wrong with my mind?' Ye Ge tilted her head, feigning confusion.

Then he seemed to suddenly realize: 'Oh~~~ you saw it? Sorry, I accidentally opened my character list.'

Ryo Kuri is bewildered: '...A list of characters?'

Ye Ge smiled faintly: "But now that you've seen it, if you're smart enough, you should know it's best not to do anything foolish again, otherwise, next time you might get ganged up on."

Li Liao: "......"

After speaking, Ye Ge raised his hand and formed several hand seals.

"First-Tier Ghost Control Technique - Undead Seal"

An unknown energy vortex rippled beneath Li Liao's feet, then a vast, illusory, gray sea appeared. A series of whistling, ghostly wails emanated from it. A dozen soul chains emerged from the dark sea, binding its limbs and slowly dragging it into the water...

"He didn't struggle or resist; he's quite sensible." Ye Ge smiled as he watched Li Liao be successfully sealed into the world of the dead.

At this moment, Bai Xueling walked over, came up behind Ye Ge, hesitated for a moment, and called out, "Um... Ye Ge."

Ye Ge turned around and lightly flicked her forehead. Bai Xueling cried out in pain, covering her reddened forehead with both hands, and glared at him angrily: "What are you doing?"

"A cat that calls its owner by their first name isn't a well-behaved cat." Night Song squinted. "Call me 'owner'."

"..." Bai Xueling pouted. Although she had called him that before, it was always in private.

Now they want to make her, the former empress of the Spirit Demon Clan, in front of so many outsiders like Bai Jian and Bai Qing...

That despicable bastard!

Oh well, nobody here knows her real identity anyway...

Who told him to be his beast tamer in this life?

"Master, Master..." Bai Xueling hummed softly, her tone full of displeasure.

"How's the situation?"

"The space gate energy transmission devices that Wang En built in various parts of the Southern Territory have all been destroyed by Li Shuying, Arthur, Meng Ge and their men. Now all the space gates are closed."

"Hmm." Ye Ge nodded in satisfaction: "What's the situation on the major battlefields?"

"The undead creatures summoned in the major city-states of the Southern Territory have all suddenly and inexplicably disappeared, and the demonized beasts have been largely brought under control by the Night Watch."

Bai Xueling paused, then continued, "Furthermore, Long Ying has led 100,000 Imperial troops to the Southern Territory to provide support, and the Spirit Demon Clan's army has also arrived in the interior to join forces with our Night Clan army to encircle Nicholas's vampire army. Now that the vampire army has realized that their situation is hopeless, they have already begun to organize a rapid withdrawal."

"Oh?" Ye Ge raised an eyebrow slightly, thinking to himself, "The vampire army retreated so decisively? And so quickly?"

Did Nicholas foresee that they and Wang En would lose this war?

Duan Ye, Wang Meng, Lei He, and the others all breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the news.

Wang En is dead, and the vampire army has been driven back; this seems to be the perfect ending...

"elder brother!"

At this moment, Bai Qing suddenly let out an anxious cry.

Ye Ge turned her head to look.

Bai Jian knelt on the ground, the demonic energy emanating from his body gradually changing his skin color and turning his lips purple.

Duan Ye and the others exclaimed in surprise and anxiously surrounded Bai Jian, calling out, "Big Brother!"

Ye Ge looked at him calmly.

Once the inhibitor wore off, the dark blood had completely invaded his heart and brain, and Bai Jian was about to complete his final demonization, becoming a thoroughly demonized human.

It's already an irreversible ending...

Although Bai Jian's expression showed slight pain, as if he was enduring the torment brought about by the demonization of his body, his eyes were relatively calm.

They clearly accepted this outcome.

"The last inhibitory effect has worn off."

Bai Jian spoke slowly, the demonic aura emanating from him growing stronger: "I can feel my human reason being slowly eroded."

Bai Qing was anxious and flustered: "Then, what should we do?" Then she subconsciously looked at Ye Ge: "Young Master Ye Ge, could you...?"

"Lord Yege." Bai Jian slowly raised his head, his tone calm: "End my life with the Gu worms that you are parasitizing in my body."

"No!" Bai Qing cried out immediately, tears streaming down her face like a babbling brook.

Bai Jian's gaze was calm, while Duan Ye and the others looked completely bewildered.

"Yes, this is what we agreed on." Ye Ge raised her palm and spread it upwards.

There was a tiny, pea-sized dot of light in his palm.

That would symbolize Bai Jian's life; if he were to crush it with a gentle squeeze, Bai Jian's heartbeat would also stop.

"The mistakes I made cost the lives of many people in Baicheng who believed in me, and also caused many warriors who once followed me and should have been honored to die in obscurity."

Bai Jian sighed: "As a general, I must take responsibility for these things. I am already content that I was able to kill Wang En before I was completely corrupted, lost my mind, and died.

"..." Bai Xueling remained silent. Bai Qing was already crying her eyes out, tears streaming down her face. Duan Ye, Lei He, Wang Meng, and the others were plunged into extreme grief. Several of the assassins had red eyes and clenched their fists, trembling slightly.

Bai Jian closed his eyes: "Let's do it, Lord Ye Ge."

"Yes, that's right. I've always known you're a tough guy."

As Ye Ge spoke, he slowly closed his five fingers and gently grasped the green light in his hand.

However, he did not crush it immediately. Instead, he paused and then suddenly asked, "So, before I die, General Bai Jian, I have a question for you."

"?" Bai Jian opened his eyes blankly, looking at Ye Ge with confusion.

"You..." Ye Ge calmly looked into his eyes and asked slowly, word by word, "Are you willing to become a necromancer warrior and my contracted ghost god?"
