Many children, many blessings: Stealing the offspring of powerful figures to cultivate immortality.

"You dare!"

Ji Lingxiao's eyes were bloodshot as he forcefully burned his own source energy in an attempt to stop him.

But how could a severely injured body keep up with Ye Wuhen in his prime?

"Get out of here!"

Ye Wuhen casually waved his hand.

A wave of blood sent Ji Lingxiao flying a hundred meters away, smashing through countless rocks.

The demonic blood essence within his body surged wildly, as if summoned, threatening to burst forth.

A tearing, excruciating pain.

The Divine Tree of Myriad Spirits trembled violently in its dantian, trying to retain this energy.

But Ye Wuhen was, after all, the owner of this drop of blood.

"puff--"

Jiang Yining opened her mouth and spat out a stream of black blood.

Ye Wuhen forcibly extracted the blood from her body.

As the demonic blood leaves the body.

Jiang Yining felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and she collapsed limply to the ground.

"Mother!"

Jiang Lei exclaimed in surprise, raised his small wooden sword, and was about to rush forward to fight to the death.

But Ji Lingxiao grabbed him and held him down.

"Don't move."

Ji Lingxiao looked at the drop of demonic blood floating on Ye Wuhen's fingertip with a complicated expression.

The demon blood is gone.

Ye Wuhen then had no reason to fight to the death.

This is both a misfortune and a great fortune.

At least... I don't have to face this crazed demon lord anymore.

Ye Wuhen held the drop of heart's blood, which he had lost and then regained, to his nose and took a deep breath, a look of ecstasy on his face.

"It smells so good!"

He opened his mouth and inhaled, and the blood instantly flew back into his body.

Ye Wuhen glanced down at Jiang Yining, a playful smile playing on his lips.

"I still think the suggestion to keep the baby alive is very constructive."

After Ye Wuhen finished speaking, he turned around to face Bai Ze, who was charging towards him in a rage.

"Come on! Let's continue!"

"I'm going to have some fun with you!"

Bai Ze looked at Jiang Yining lying on the ground, and his golden eyes instantly turned crimson.

An unprecedentedly violent aura erupted from him.

"Night Without a Trace!!!"

"I want you dead!!!"

"Boom!"

The final collision between the nine-colored divine light and the blood-red demonic energy caused the aftershocks to scrape away another layer of the Gobi Desert within a ten-mile radius.

Ye Wuhen staggered in mid-air and took dozens of steps back.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, but his face showed no anger; instead, it was filled with a sense of exhilarating pleasure.

"Hahaha! That felt great!"

Ye Wuhen laughed wildly, his voice shaking the heavens.

"White Fox, you are a worthy opponent."

Bai Ze hovered in place, its nine enormous tails slowly retracting, its crimson eyes locked onto Ye Wuhen, its killing intent undiminished.

"Next time, I will bring my 'Ten Thousand Demon Banner' and come back to have some fun with you."

Ye Wuhen beckoned to Bai Ze provocatively with his finger.

His gaze then turned to Jiang Yining, who was being protected by Ji Lingxiao.

His gaze was sticky and dangerous, as if he were examining an interesting piece of private property.

"My little pet."

"Make good use of your interesting physique and give me a few more 'toys'."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Wuhen's figure turned into a cloud of blood mist and disappeared into the sky in an instant.

As soon as he left, the oppressive, suffocating demonic aura dissipated.

The sky cleared up again.

The violent aura emanating from Bai Ze quickly faded, and his crimson eyes returned to their pure gold color.

He flashed and appeared in front of Jiang Yining in an instant, his face filled with worry and self-blame.

"benefactor!"

Bai Ze crouched down, cautiously reaching out his hand, yet he dared not touch her, pacing anxiously in circles.

"How are you? Did he hurt you?"

"It's all my fault for being too weak!"

He looked just like a large dog that had done something wrong and was waiting to be punished by its owner.

Jiang Yining slowly shook her head.

"I'm fine."

The Myriad Spirits Divine Tree within his body soothed the meridians damaged by the forced stripping of demonic blood.

Thank goodness I was here, otherwise we would have been seriously weakened this time!

A childish voice echoed in my mind, carrying a hint of self-satisfaction.

[Little Wood is really capable, but I didn't expect it to all be for nothing.]

[That great demon is utterly despicable! Thankfully, the three babies have already been nurtured, but they're lacking nutrition due to the absence of a large amount of demonic blood!]

Jiang Yining was overjoyed upon hearing this; the Three Treasures could actually be cultivated?

That's great! As for Ye Wuhen, she'll get her revenge sooner or later!

"My benefactor, it's not safe here. That madman might come back at any time."

Bai Ze looked at Jiang Yining with a sincere expression and extended an invitation.

"Come with me to my Qingqiu Fox Kingdom."

"I promise no one will be able to hurt you there!"

Jiang Yining hadn't spoken yet.

Ji Lingxiao, who was standing to the side, snorted coldly first.

"absurd."

His voice was hoarse, weak from his serious injuries: "Humans and demons are different."

"How can we cultivators associate with demons and live under their roof?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ze frowned unhappily.

Those golden eyes swept over Ji Lingxiao with displeasure.

"And who are you?"

"What right does a sickly man who can't even stand properly have to make decisions for his benefactor?"

"you!"

Ji Lingxiao's chest heaved with anger, which aggravated his injuries, causing him to cough violently.

"Cough cough...cough..."

Jiang Yining raised an eyebrow and looked at Ji Lingxiao: "Sword Master, what you said makes sense."

Ji Lingxiao thought she had changed her mind, and his expression softened slightly.

"but."

Jiang Yining changed the subject: "Sword Master, besides going to the Demon Emperor's territory, do we have anywhere else to go?"

"Or are you confident that, in your current state, you can lead my child and me out of Ye Wuhen's next pursuit?"

Ji Lingxiao's lips moved, but he couldn't utter a single word.

In his current state, let alone Ye Wuhen, any high-level cultivator could easily take his life.

"If there's no such thing, then don't insist on those irrelevant things."

After saying that, she stopped looking at Ji Lingxiao's face, which had turned ashen in an instant.

He gave Bai Ze a weak but sincere smile.

"Xiao Bai, then I'll leave it to you."

"No trouble at all! Not trouble at all!"

Bai Ze's eyes lit up instantly, and the nine large tails behind him popped out uncontrollably, wagging happily.

"I'm so happy that you're willing to come back with me, my benefactor!"

He waved his hand.

A magnificent carriage, crafted from millennia-old warm jade and radiating a soft glow, appeared out of thin air before the crowd.

The chariot was pulled by two magnificent white horses, each with a single horn on its head.

"My benefactor, please."

Bai Ze eagerly lifted the carriage curtain.

Jiang Yining, holding the silent Jiang Lei, walked up to him without any hesitation.

The interior of the carriage was extremely spacious, covered with thick white fox fur, so rich in spiritual energy that it almost seemed to condense into water droplets.

Ji Lingxiao stood there, his expression changing repeatedly.

Let him ride in the Demon King's carriage and receive the protection of the demon race?

He is the Supreme Elder of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, the number one swordsman. Where does he put his face?

"Lord Sword Master?"

Jiang Yining's voice came from inside the car: "Are you planning to walk back to human territory on your own?"
