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

Three demon warriors infiltrated the city, preparing to split up and carry out their respective operations.

Blood Fiend, Demon Valley, and Ghost Blade stood atop the tallest tower in Night City, overlooking the beautiful, bustling, and peaceful human city.

"The generals of the Ye family, Li Shuying, Bai Qing, and Arthur, are usually stationed around the city walls and fortresses of Ye City."

Xue Sha said, "As for the old patriarch of the Ye family, Ye Quan, Zhou Yuqing, and Shen Tu, the top expert under Ye Xiao, they usually stay in the family to guard the area."

After listening, Mogu said with a confident expression, "In that case, leave that old guy Ye Quan to me! I heard that he is the strongest fighter in the Ye family and their last trump card. I also heard that when he fought alongside the First Emperor of the Human Race to conquer the country, he once killed one of our Demon Race's generals on the battlefield of ten thousand races? Heh... Today I want to see just how strong this old guy really is."

“No.” Youren said expressionlessly, “Yequan’s level has broken through to the peak of the Heavenly Revelation Realm. Your level is the same as his, and there is a considerable risk in fighting him.”

Mogu's expression changed, and he said with dissatisfaction, "Youren, what do you mean? Are you saying that I, a demon general, am possibly no match for a half-buried human old man of the same level?!"

Youren glanced at him: "Don't forget the Demon Lord's instructions to us. Our mission this time is not only to kill the people on the list, but also to kill them silently so that the Demon Lord can control the Ye family. If you fight him and cause a bloodbath in the Ye family, even destroying the Ye family, wouldn't that ruin the Demon Lord's original plan?"

Now, all the dark races among the myriad races desire to obtain the Azure Dragon.

The reason they remained inactive was twofold: firstly, they were not yet fully aware of the Ye family's current weapon stockpile and were somewhat wary of whether the Ye family possessed other trump cards; secondly, other dark races were also remaining inactive, so there was no need for them to rush.

But if tonight's events escalate and the news gets out, the other dark races will immediately know that the demon race has begun to take action. Then they will definitely not sit still and will immediately send troops to launch a war to compete with them!

If they try to seize the Azure Dragon Treasure again then, the price they have to pay will be completely different.

Mo Gu snorted coldly, still clearly unconvinced: "Of course I know the Demon Lord's plan, you don't need to remind me! But that old man from the Ye family, no matter how strong he is, is still just a human. Even in a head-on battle, I guarantee I can kill him within three moves! Besides, I'll be attacking him by surprise."

"No." Youren still maintained an uncompromising attitude: "Lady Yanji's mission absolutely cannot go wrong. To be on the safe side, I will handle Old Man Yequan; Xue Sha, you are responsible for taking down Shen Tu, the top expert under Ye Xiao, as well as Zhou Yuqing, the first lady of the Ye family, and a group of old ministers of the Ye family; Mo Gu, you are responsible for Li Shuying, Bai Qing, Arthur and the others."

Blood Fiend nodded: "Mm."

After hearing this, Mo Gu's face turned very ugly, and he said in a sinister tone, "You Ren, what do you mean?"

"It doesn't mean anything. I just want to ensure that the task assigned by the Demon Lord is completed flawlessly." Youren said expressionlessly, "That's it. Let's begin."

After saying that, he didn't wait for Mogu to say anything more before his figure turned into a shadow and disappeared into the night.

Seeing this, Xue Sha also flashed away and left.

Mogu cursed under his breath.

Although they were unhappy, Youren was, after all, the only Saint Realm expert among them.

Even among generals, there are differences in rank.

Under the pressure of hierarchy, he couldn't really refute anything.

With a "whoosh," the last one disappeared from the top of the Night City Tower.

......

A moment later, as a black light descended from the sky, Mo Gu's figure silently appeared on the fortress wall tower in the northern part of Night City.

"That Youren dares to look down on me!"

Mogu's expression was very gloomy, and he was still very indignant.

Let Xue Sha kill Shen Tu and Zhou Yuqing, and leave the remaining few trash ants to him.

Doesn't this clearly imply that they consider him the weakest of the three generals?!

"Just you wait, Ghost Blade, I'll be advancing to the Saintly Ascension Realm soon too..."

"Sooner or later, I will make you..."

As Mogu cursed under his breath, he teleported across the city's fortress.

The fortress walls were filled with Night Clan warriors on patrol.

However, in front of a demon general at the peak of the Apocalypse Realm, these mid-to-low-level Night Clan warriors were completely useless.

Even if Mogu flashed past them, they wouldn't be able to detect his presence.

There was no way around it; the difference in strength was simply too great.

"The garrison commander's quarters should be here..."

Mogu entered a wide corridor inside the fortress and came to the door of a room.

"This should be it, Li Shuying's room."

Mogu easily broke the electronic door lock of the room.

Not a sound was made.

Then he swaggered in.

It was late at night, and the room was pitch black; the lights were off.

However, one could still vaguely see a figure sitting in a chair in the room with legs crossed. In the darkness, there were two sounds of teacup lids gently rubbing against teacups, followed by the sound of someone sipping water while drinking tea.

Mogu's eyes flashed slightly: "Who?!"

The figure in front of me is clearly a man!

The only window in the room was open, and the curtains were not drawn.

The bright moonlight streamed in through the window, illuminating the figure's face and highlighting its contours.

Ye Quan held the tea lid in one hand and the teacup in the other. Her meticulously combed, silvery-white hair looked like a work of art under the bright moonlight.

When the old man saw the guests arrive, the wrinkles on his face smoothed out, and he revealed a faint smile, looking just like a kind and approachable neighborly grandfather.

Mogu's pupils contracted slightly.

Before taking action, he had of course seen the photo of the old man of the Ye family and knew what the people on the list looked like.

"Night Spring?" Mo Gu's eyes sharpened. "How could it be you?"

"One of the three great generals under the Flame Demon Lord, Mo Gu."

Ye Quan remained calm and casually recited the origins of Demon Valley. He then gently placed his teacup aside, raised his head, and smiled kindly at the demon general: "I heard you were particularly eager to test the strength of this old man. Well, now your wish has been fulfilled. Aren't you pleasantly surprised?"
