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

"Why?" Jiangxue asked, puzzled.

Night Song said, "Haven't you noticed? We've completely cut off contact with the outside world."

Jiang Xue was stunned for a moment, then closed her eyes, meditated deeply for a while, and then opened her eyes again: "Really... I can't sense the existence of the Demon Realm at all anymore..."

"The Deep Blue System can't be opened either?" Bai Xueling said beside him.

"Hmm." Ye Ge thought to herself, the serious issue is not just the Deep Blue System.

Even his Heavenly Dao System had many functions restricted after it was opened.

Although functions such as scanning, analysis, and attribute checking are still available, the inventory and map are blocked, and it is impossible to contact the outside world through the system.

This is truly the first time this has happened.

Ye Ge looked up at the starry night sky.

This place is shrouded in some kind of powerful divine force.

So many ancient natural treasures that have grown here for millions or hundreds of thousands of years must be living off that divine power, right?

This reminded him of the God Realm map in the game "Tales of Myriad Races"!

Only the spiritual energy of the divine realm could sustain the growth of these ancient spiritual materials, right?

Ye Ge pondered, but he clearly remembered that the realm of gods was not in this place.

Although there is abundant spiritual energy and strong divine power here, it is still far inferior to the realm of gods.

Ash frowned: "Could this be a trap set by some extraordinary being? Specifically designed to lure adventurers who mistakenly believe they have discovered treasure into the trap, and then strike them?"

Ye Ge chuckled: "Even a random blade of grass here is so valuable, and the spiritual energy in the air is so abundant. How powerful must the owner of this place be? Why would they need to use traps to lure greedy adventurers?"

Ash: "...That's true."

"Since we're here, let's make the best of it." Ye Ge narrowed his eyes. "Let's go and look around."

......

In the forest under the cover of night, huge skeletons can be seen everywhere.

Most of these skeletons were not complete; some had only a head, some had only limbs, and some had only scattered ribs, resembling corpses that had been dismembered and eaten on the grasslands.

Based on the shape of the skeletons, the White Blood Spirit once again recognized their former owners.

There is a dragon...

There is a Bai Ze...

There is a Chongming bird...

There's even a Qilin...

They are all ancient, extinct spirit beasts! Because their magical power was too strong when they were alive, even though their physical bodies have perished, their remaining skeletons have remained intact and uncorrupted for tens of thousands of years!

'Who did this?' Bai Xueling couldn't help but shudder.

Half an hour later.

Night Song led the demons to an ancient ruin in the forest.

This place is like a destroyed ancient kingdom.

Night Song raised his hand, instructing the Darkin Raiders and Demon Warriors to disperse and explore, while he himself led White Blood Spirit, Crimson Snow, and Ashu into the ruins.

"Look, sir."

The crow perched on the shoulder pointed ahead with its beak.

There are also skeletons everywhere here.

Unlike outside, the dismembered skeletons here are mostly human-shaped.

Jiang Xue: "My God..."

Night Song: "So, are you scared?"

"No way." Jiangxue shook her head, took Yege's arm, and leaned close to him: "With Father here, I'm not afraid of anything."

Bai Xueling beside him: "..."

That's so cheesy!

The catgirl couldn't help but rub the goosebumps that had risen on her arms.

Ugh! Why do these two, father and daughter, always manage to say such cheesy and disgusting things so naturally?!

Ye Ge squatted down and picked up one of the ribs to examine it.

'Although it's in human form, these don't seem to be human bones...'

Night Song ponders.

Put down the bone and keep moving forward.

Here, Night Song saw another huge mural in the ruined palace.

On the mural, he saw the familiar Azure Dragon Lao Deng, whose scene of fighting to the death with 100,000 divine soldiers for seven days and seven nights was also depicted.

At the same time, Ye Ge also saw the other three of the four ancient sacred beasts, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Black Tortoise, as well as the four ancient ferocious beasts, Chaos, Qiongqi, Taotie, and Taowu, all of whom were killed one after another under the siege of many gods!

Is this part of the history of the divine realm?

Ye Ge seemed lost in thought.

He slowly walked to the left side of the mural.

This painting appears to depict two gods in a decisive battle.

The deity on the left has a golden halo behind him, and his body is covered with burning patterns like the sun. His whole body is shrouded in holy light.

"The King of Gods, the Emperor of Light?"

Ye Ge narrowed his eyes.

The King of Gods in the game "Tales of Myriad Races"! His image is shown in the background setting illustrations on the official website, which is why Yege can recognize him.

The deity on the right is depicted in black and blue, with long white hair and a tall, slender figure; it's impossible to tell who he/she is...

Who is this guy? Among the 108 high gods, there doesn't seem to be anyone who fits his image.

But someone who can rival the Emperor of Light is definitely not a simple character...

Night Song then moved to the right side of the mural.

The painting here appears to depict a beautiful goddess who, while being pursued by a group of heavenly soldiers and generals, fought off her pursuers and escaped from the realm of the gods.

Ye Ge looked at the goddess in the mural and frowned slightly.

The image of this goddess gave him a strange sense of familiarity, even a feeling of warmth... but in his previous life, he couldn't seem to find a matching figure in the official website's background pantheon. Strange...

Ye Ge continued to scan the surroundings and noticed that there were actually a few murals in the corner of the wall.

However, the figures in this mural are no longer gods or sacred beasts, but seem to be two ancient demons.

No... only one of them should be a demon, and the other one is... human?

Night Song was surprised.

This mural depicts an ancient demon king standing face to face with a human woman.

The next mural depicts a human woman holding a baby in her arms.

What surprised Ye Ge even more was that next to these three people was a pattern that he was very, very familiar with.

The head of a demon king.

That's the crest of the Ye family!
