Inside the main hall, all was silent.

After Yu Yunqi returned, he immediately used the immortal artifact left to him by the Demon Lord, which could detect and conceal one's cultivation level, to check the eaves and the house three times.

Only after realizing that Yu Ge and the others had left did he drop his pretense.

Indeed, Yu Yunqi is hiding a big secret.

He... is not a descendant of the human Shangyuan Yujun, but... a descendant of the demon lord!

Yu Yunqi, that's not his name.

The boy's real name is... Murong Qi.

That's right, his true identity is the child of the current Demon Lord.

However, because his mother was merely a demon concubine from the demon race, and he had no maternal clan to support him, Murong Qi had no powerful backing at all.

In order to survive and gain a supreme position among the demon race, Murong Qi made a decision.

At the age of six, he volunteered before the Demon Lord, wanting to infiltrate the Central Plains of the human race in order to plot something bigger in the future.

Demon Lord Murong Ying agreed to the decision.

From then on, under the covert manipulation of the demon race...

Murong Qi became a child in the mortal realm of Zhongzhou who lost his father and was raised alone by his sickly mother.

This was also the happiest time for Murong Qi. With his mother by his side, the human race was indeed warmer than the demon race.

The saintly doctor has saved lives for ten years and has never done anything evil, although he still remembers that he was an undercover agent...

However, what he was after was not just a mere undercover identity.

With the help of a demon king, Murong Qi obtained a trace of Yu Jun's true blood, who had died in the Beast Abyss.

True blood is a symbol of the power of a clan's bloodline.

then.

Upon seeing Yu Jun's true blood, Murong Qi immediately conceived a terrifying plan.

Since I'm going to be an undercover agent for decades anyway, I might as well make use of the person in front of me.

After all, Yu Jun is a direct descendant of the Shangyuan Yu family, and he is qualified to become the head of the family.

If Murong Qi also possesses Yu Jun's blood, then wouldn't that mean...?

to this end.

Murong Qi forcibly used the demonic sword to peel off his own demonic bones, drained his own blood, and used a secret demonic cultivation technique to exchange his soul, transferring Yu Jun's original true blood into his own body.

That demonic secret technique was passed down from the demon realm and is called the Nine-Nine-Eighty-One-Sword Soul-Swapping Technique.

As the name suggests.

To exchange flesh and blood, one must pierce one's own flesh, making eighty-one cuts in one's own body, removing one's own demonic bones, and dispelling one's own demonic energy.

Then, they extracted the soul and replaced the blood.

The pain in between was indescribable; even someone as meticulous and deep-thinking as Murong Qi almost died from the pain within the secret formation.

But Murong Qi knew what he wanted.

He came from humble origins; his mother was merely a demoness, and his father neglected him. Yet, he was still a prince of the demon race.

Murong Li is the hope of the demon race, a hope that only comes around once in ten thousand years, but Murong Qi can also take that position!

Murong Qi is a person who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

Ninety-one cuts remove the demon's bones, changing its soul and blood.

That's it.

Murong Qi obtained Yu Jun's blood.

With the help of secret formations, Murong Qi's body became human, and all the blood in his body was drained, truly obtaining Yu Jun's blood.

Even if it's just a trace of Yu Jun's true blood...

But he survived...

That's right, this is why Murong Qi was able to deceive the Yu family's inscription and gain the approval of many Yu family cultivators.

The bloodline within him is indeed that of Yu Jun.

From another perspective, the bloodline of the direct descendants of the Yu family that Murong Qi possesses today might be considered the purest, after all, he exchanged demon blood for Yu Jun's original true blood.

The price was eighty cuts to remove the demon's bones.

But Murong Qi never regretted it.

Thinking about this...

Murong Qi looked down at his broken body, a bitter yet resolute smile on his face. "Heh, even if I die nine times, I will not regret it!"

"I will always remember the pain of having my bones removed and my blood ripped out, but the plan has been more than half successful..."

Indeed, Murong Qi's true purpose in undergoing the bone-swapping and blood-changing was not merely to infiltrate the Yu family naturally as a descendant of Yu Jun.

His real goal is to take control of the Yu family!

Murong Qi unbuttoned his robe, revealing a body that was extremely thin and even somewhat ugly.

Looking in the mirror, the boy revealed a strange smile.

He was very thin, and even had knife scars.

He told the media that it was due to a serious illness he had suffered since childhood.

In fact, Murong Qi's physical body is very strong, after all, he is a descendant of the Demon Lord and has a powerful physique.

But in order to infiltrate the Yu family and take control of everything, he was willing to give up everything, dragging his sickly body along.

The boy stared at his reflection in the mirror with cold, deep eyes, and smiled coldly.

"My plan is halfway to success. I've successfully gained a position as a direct descendant of Yu Jun. The next step is to obtain this damned position of young master..."

This is Murong Qi's next step in the plan.

He underwent a radical transformation and successfully obtained the status of a direct descendant of the Yu family.

He's going to become the next young master of the Yu family!

He had recently received important information from the demon race, and soon after, the demon race would make a big move, a terrible plan to seize the continent.

What he needed to do was to obtain the position of the young master of the Yu family before the great calamity on the continent arrived.

Then, taking advantage of the coming catastrophe on the continent, he will scheme to remove Yu Yuan from the position of family head. Finally, he will openly and legitimately ascend to the position of Yu family head and rule the entire Shangyuan Prefecture.

At that time, he would take the opportunity to lead Shangyuan Prefecture to fight the demon race to the bitter end, until both sides are severely injured.

Finally, he wanted to become the sole emperor of the continent.

In front of the bronze mirror.

The boy slowly put on the white robe, looking at his broken and thin body. He had no expression, but rather a calm and self-satisfied demeanor.

Because, for him now, the position of the young master of the Yu family is practically within his grasp.

He possessed the secret that caused Yu Ge to lose her position as the young master.

Murong Qi gazed at her somewhat terrifying reflection in the bronze mirror, but merely chuckled coldly. "Heh heh, who would have thought that the legendary number one genius of the continent would actually be a woman?"

"The Yu family's ancestral worship ceremony is about to begin. At that time, all the nobles of the Nine Heavens, the Four Great Immortal Sects, the Heavenly God Academy, the other three Great Immortal Clans, and even the Central Plains royal family, as well as various sects, will send people to witness the ceremony..."

"Yu Ge, if your true identity as a woman is revealed one day, your position as young master..."

"What will happen?"

That's right.

This was Murong Qi's plan.

He already knew Yu Ge's identity from the Demon King of the Abyss Dragon, and he held this secret in his hands, ready to detonate it at any time, using it as a stepping stone to ascend to the supreme throne.

Murong Qi slowly looked at his thin face and smiled, his originally warm and gentle eyes now showing a hint of ambition.

"The ancestral rules of the Shangyuan Yu family forbid women from inheriting the position of family head..."

"Although I don't know why the Yu family, which doesn't care about gender, has such a family rule, it's a good thing for me..."

Murong Qi had planned this all along.

He used his lineage to become the second heir to the position of young master of the Yu family.

Then, Yu Ge used her identity as a woman to drag him into the mess.

He will naturally succeed as the young master of the Shangyuan Yu family at the ancestral worship ceremony.

Thinking of this, Murong Qi's narrowed eyes took on a darker, green hue.

Those were the eyes of a demon, only radiating light from the deepest recesses of its pupils when it was excited…

The boy, dressed in white, leaned against the window, gazing quietly at the tranquil world under the moonlight.

The moonlight, like silver, spread across the heavens and earth.

Murong Qi's eyes flashed with a mixture of confusion and unwavering obsession, as well as a hint of relief at the imminent fulfillment of his wishes.

"After the ancestral worship ceremony, Father, how will you view me?"

The boy's tone revealed a hint of pride and anticipation.

It was very quiet under the moonlight.

The boy was so engrossed in the moment that a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Suddenly, in the silvery, crystal-clear night, a clear, melodious voice drifted from the other side of the window, carrying a hint of languor.

"I bet your father still favors that guy Murong Li more..."
