For demons to activate their bloodline, there are two options: their own efforts or the assistance of external forces.

Yun Zhao first gave up on letting Qi Yan work hard on his own. In the original plot, Qi Yan tried to activate his bloodline in order to escape the dungeon where Song Zhiyuan imprisoned him, attempting to obtain demonic power to escape from there.

Unfortunately, his efforts were in vain; he eventually succumbed to demonic possession and only then gained power.

Qi Yan is currently suffering from "amnesia." He believes he is a demon, not a half-demon. Yun Zhao will have to work hard until the Year of the Donkey to activate the bloodline within him.

She decisively chose the second option—to seek help from external forces.

“That’s easy,” Qi Han snapped his fingers, “All you need to do is take a medicinal bath.”

He took out a bunch of spiritual herbs from his storage bag and gave them to Yun Zhao, saying, "Use these spiritual herbs to bathe, and you can stimulate the bloodline in A Yan's body."

Yun Zhao asked in surprise, "That's it?"

Don't we need to go through the eighty-one tribulations of lightning?

Qi Han explained, "We demons are born with the bloodline of the most powerful parent, but half-demons are different. They have both human and demon bloodlines in their bodies."

"The union of humans and demons is intolerable to heaven and earth, but there will be anomalies. This has led to some half-demons being born stupid and clumsy, while others have talents far surpassing their parents."

“Long ago, some demons and humans, in order to seek offspring with stronger talents, maliciously intermarried, resulting in a large number of mentally challenged half-demons during that period.”

"When Heaven sensed the anomaly, it sent down tribulation lightning to punish those who did evil. The higher-ups of both the demon and human races also strictly prohibited such behavior. Gradually, no one or no demon dared to do it anymore."

"Then, what happened to those half-demons who were born much earlier?"

Yun Zhao asked the crucial question.

Qi Han said slowly and deliberately, "A pharmacist has developed a prescription that can activate the bloodline of half-demons. After bathing in the spiritual herbs in the prescription, half-demons can become demons."

Yun Zhao's eyes lit up. "So, Qi Yan can use this method to transform into a demon!"

Qi Han nodded. "Yes."

“There’s another problem,” Yun Zhao raised his hand, “Ayan has lost her memory, what should we do?”

Qi Han thought for a moment, "Let's activate his bloodline first. Maybe after activation, he will regain his memories."

"Of course, he lost his memory because he entered the illusion. The illusion gave him a new identity, and his memory will naturally return once he leaves the illusion."

Speaking of this, Qi Han said with a strange expression, "The reason I didn't lose my memory and become a completely different person is because our snake clan has the innate ability to resist illusions."

"Why don't you consider yourself as Bao Yun, the eldest daughter of the Bao family?"

Yun Zhao's focus was a bit off. "You mean, I'm Leopard Cloud?"

The leopard family's servants were indeed the right choice.

Yun Zhao wasn't sure why either; she thought it might be because the system had helped.

She couldn't tell Qi Han this guess, so she pretended to be clueless and said, "I don't know either."

Qi Han didn't pay attention to these details. The matter was urgent, so he told Yun Zhao to immediately take the elixir to Qi Yan.

“I can sense that the master of the illusion is watching us. Over the years, I have gone to great lengths to prepare materials for the concealment formation when the master is not paying attention.”

“I’ve figured out the pattern. At this time of year, they won’t be monitoring us. We need to take advantage of this period and leave as soon as possible.”

……

"Medicated bath?"

Yun Zhao nodded and pushed Qi Yan into the inner room. "You were injured before, and your body hasn't fully recovered. You need to have a medicinal bath for treatment."

"Hurry up, the water will get cold soon."

As soon as Qi Yan entered, he saw a large tub of dark, hot water. He swallowed hard and suddenly felt a little scared.

"My wife, I'm all better now, so I don't need the medicinal bath anymore, right?"

“No,” Yun Zhao said seriously, “a medicinal bath is necessary.”

Seeing that Qi Yan was uncooperative, she pulled out a handkerchief from somewhere and began to sob, "Oh dear, my life is so bitter! I lost my father and mother when I was young, and after finally growing up and marrying a good man, my husband is impotent..."

Stop!

You misread it.

By the time Yun Zhao realized what was happening, it was too late.

"no?"

Qi Yan narrowed his eyes dangerously and walked towards Yun Zhao step by step, forcing Yun Zhao to retreat.

She swallowed hard. "Qi, Qi Yan, what are you going to do..."

According to the novel's plot, after the female lead said that, the male lead should have said, "What? Of course, it's..."

Ahem, the rest is unspeakable.

She quickly changed the subject, "The water's all cold now, why don't you go first..."

"No rush," Qi Yan smiled as he cornered her against the wall. "Let me first prove to my wife whether I can actually get it..."

He drew closer and closer, and Yun Zhao placed his hands on his chest, trying to create some distance.

But it was no use; Qi Yan's head kept moving closer, until...

He leaned on her shoulder.

Yun Zhao: "???"

"Ahem," Qi Han's voice came from outside, "Daughter-in-law, I know you two are newlyweds, but things are a bit urgent..."

"I'm leaving now, hurry up and let Ayan take a bath."

Yun Zhao's face turned bright red. She bit Qi Yan's shoulder in a fit of anger before finally getting him into the bathtub.

After a while, recalling his behavior just now, Yun Zhao suddenly felt a little awkward.

How could she have done that?

A look of annoyance flashed in Yun Zhao's eyes.

It seems that her relationship with Qi Yan isn't that close, is it?

She squatted by the bathtub, her mind wandering, waiting for the water to cool down so she could use her spiritual power to heat it up.

Because of Qi Han's instructions, she stood up every half hour to check on Qi Yan's condition, and squatted down again when she saw that there was no problem.

After two hours, Yun Zhao estimated that the medicinal properties had been fully absorbed and planned to add some more spiritual herbs.

As soon as she stood up, she saw that Qi Yanshuang's face was flushed red—no, it should be said that his whole body was flushed red.

Because he had absorbed the elixir, the water in the bathtub became much clearer, and Qi Yan sat inside wearing only his undergarments.

With his inner garment soaked by water, Yun Zhao could see that Qi Yan's skin below the neck was an abnormal red.

She quickly called Qi Han over, and Qi Han was stunned when he saw Qi Yan's state.

“Something’s not right,” Qi Han murmured. “It shouldn’t be like this. Is something wrong?”

Yun Zhao grew anxious, "What went wrong? Is it the wrong elixir or the wrong way to do the medicinal bath?"

Qi Han said, "Don't rush, let me check it again."

But he checked twice and found no problems.

Qi Han thought for a moment, then took out Qi Yan's hand and placed two fingers on Qi Yan's wrist.

If there are no problems, then the problem must lie with Qi Yan.

Yun Zhao watched nervously as he examined Qi Yan. After a long while, Qi Han withdrew his hand and shook his head.

"No problem..."

Before he finished speaking, Qi Yan opened his eyes.

Yun Zhao was overjoyed, "Qi Yan, you're alright..."

Before she could finish speaking, Qi Yan's face turned icy cold, and he slapped her with his palm!
