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

Ye Ge gave the man in front of her a quick look.

"So you're the descendant with 6% Tanuki bloodline?"

"So what if it's me?!" the burly man roared angrily.

He didn't know how his personal information was leaked.

Over the years, he knew that the gene company had been collecting genes from the descendants of ancient races everywhere, so he had been careful enough to keep his identity hidden.

I never expected that I would still be targeted by people from gene companies!

"Since you know we're a gene company, I don't need to introduce myself." Ye Ge smiled. "How about I give you a chance to join the company? If you refuse and I drag you back, things will be a different story."

"Pah!" The burly man tapped the two heavy iron hammers in his hands: "Come on if you dare! Let me show you the power of my ancient fox spirit!"

As he spoke, he swung the heavy iron hammer with both hands and slammed it heavily onto the ground!

"Zhen Xun · Earth Dragon Roar? 6? 8!"

The hammers slammed into the ground, triggering a powerful seismic wave that caused the earth's surface to crack open in a spiderweb pattern.

That wasn't an ordinary crack.

The rock strata at the edge of each crack were pulverized by high-frequency vibrations, and marsh gas gushed out from the depths of the cracks and was ignited by friction. The yellowish-brown energy fluctuations moved forward along the trajectory of the shock waves!

Ye Ge raised an eyebrow slightly.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Yu quickly said, "Be careful! This person is quite strong!"

The man, his face a mass of scarred flesh, his veins bulging like the gnarled roots of an old tree, roared, his voice echoing the earth's rumble: "Crush me to dust!"

When the cast iron hammer struck for the second time, the entire rock layer seemed to transform into a surging ocean!

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom—!!!"

A visible, earthy-yellow ring-shaped shockwave tore through the ground. Wherever it passed, the rocks did not collapse but were annihilated into dust. At the core of the shockwave, a faint phantom of an earth dragon was formed, spewing out intense, magma-like shockwave energy from its fanged mouth!

Ye Ge, Zhu Yu, Su You, and the others quickly scattered and hid in all directions.

'I didn't expect this guy to be even stronger than I thought...'

Su You covered her mouth and nose, only opening her eyes a crack.

The yellow sand that was being stirred up was no ordinary sandstorm. This fox's power could fuse soul power into the fine sand!

If the sand gets into your eyes, you will lose your sight completely within three hours. If you inhale even a little bit, you will experience difficulty breathing, and in severe cases, you may even suffocate!

The man with a face full of scars slowly stood up, holding two hammers, and quickly scanned his surroundings to determine the location of Ye Ge and the others.

"Oh, you've got quite a temper." Ye Ge's voice rang out leisurely above his head.

The man with the muscular face felt a jolt in his heart. He turned around abruptly and looked up, only to see the Star Dragon flapping its demonic dragon wings and slowly flying above his head.

"Are you the leader of these people?" The burly man asked, somewhat suspicious.

Night Song: "Yes."

The burly man said, "A Saint Realm Level 2 transcendent being as your leader? Is this all the strength your gene company has?"

Ye Ge chuckled: "You, a Soul Emperor Realm cultivator, were able to have your attack dodged by a Saint Realm Level 2 transcendent being. Maybe you're not so great after all."

"Hmph!" The man with a face full of scars glared at her. "You're just lucky. Take another hit from me!"

Night Song: "You've already lost your chance."

The man with a face full of scars paled: "What...?"

The Star Dragon flapped its dragon wings again and flew straight towards the man.

"court death!"

The man's neck muscles suddenly bulged, and brownish-brown patterns resembling cracked pottery appeared on his skin—a sign that the Li Li bloodline was going berserk!

"Earthly Fiend - Mountain Collapse!"

"Divine Art - See Through!"

Night Song's left eye turned pure black, activating the Eye of Extreme Yin.

In his field of vision, the flow of soul power within the man's body was clearly visible.

He could clearly see which parts of his body were bright and which were dark.

I saw through the weakness of his moves at a glance.

"Roar!!" the man roared, his dual-wielded hammers brimming with terrifying power.

The demonic sword in the night singer clashed with the man's twin hammers.

With a tremendous bang, the soul power of the two men spread out in layers of shockwaves from the impact.

The surrounding yellow sand was also stirred up by the air blast, creating a spectacular sight.

Zhu Yu, Su You, Wu Yikun, and Zhi Ling all quickly raised their hands to block the oncoming yellow sand.

"what......"

With a wail, the burly man fell to the ground, and both heavy iron hammers flew out, landing with a clang more than ten meters away.

The demonic sword in the Night Singer's hand was still intact, even the white cloth covering it was undamaged. The white cloth was wrapped with eerie black and red demonic energy and stained with the man's blood, but it was quickly devoured by the demonic sword.

The man with the muscular face tried to stand up again, but after struggling for the third time, he could no longer get up.

Zhu Yu, Wu Yikun, and Zhiling were all stunned. They thought it would be a tough battle, but they didn't expect Xingminglong to end the battle so quickly!

A Saint Realm Level 2 fighter was defeated in a single move by a Soul Emperor Realm Level 1 fighter!

Moreover, it seemed the opponent didn't even have a chance to unleash their full power...

Zhu Yu looked at Xing Minglong and thought to himself, no wonder the chairman valued him so much.

This guy's potential to fight opponents of a higher level may have truly reached a monstrous level, just like Ye Ge!

Su You's face darkened: "Hmph..."

Pretending...

"The Tanuki bloodline, is that all?" Ye Ge hoisted the demon sword back onto his shoulder. "Alright, that's settled. One of you, grab a sack, pack him up, and carry him away."

"I...I'll do it..." Wu Yikun came to his senses and took the initiative to clean up the mess.

Zhiling also came over to help him tie the man up and put him into a sack.

Night Song looked at them, and then a message box popped up in front of her:

[Takayuki: It looks like things are going smoothly.]

[Gao Shenxue: Should we also get rid of these employees you brought along?]

[Night Song: No, not yet.]

Night Song paused for a moment: "Let's talk about it when we reach Thunder Rift..."
