Age: Two hundred and forty years old.
Identity: Demon, Tree.
Physical Attributes: Strength 55, Agility 56, Constitution 60, Intelligence 9.
Demon Skills: Basic Life Drain, drains the life force from living creatures, touted as the most vicious spell in the Abyss plane, however, the level of this spell is low and cannot drain life force from beings with resistance.
Demon Talent: Secretion of Life Juice, extreme conditions lead to opposite effects; the demon tree can not only absorb the life force from living creatures but also secrete juice that is rich in life force. Consumption by creatures will enhance constitution and heal all ailments (healing effect depends on the level of the Abyss Demon Tree), effective for any living being.

Demon Skills: Dissolving Beam, shoots a ray from the Evil Eye, which can dissolve, to some extent, the defenses and flesh, bones of any creature.
Demon Talent: Clairvoyance, the high intelligence of the Evil Eye doesn’t mean it is very clever, but its elevated intelligence grants it a powerful spirit that can see through any object in the Main Plane.
Other Options: Can choose one demon to transform into Demon Power, which can be bestowed within the host and Demon Slaves.
The appearance of these two new types of demons made Bai Yan very happy.
However, Bai Yan then realized that, starting with the second-level demons, their four major attributes began to show focal points.
The Abyss Demon Tree’s attribute focuses on constitution, which represents recovery ability and defensive power. Evidently, the Abyss Demon Tree has strong resilience and recovery ability.
In addition, the Abyss Demon Tree has a demon talent and skill that are quite special and time-sensitive talents, especially the "Secretion of Life Juice" skill, truly an eye-opener for Bai Yan.
To extreme conditions come opposite effects; the end of death is inevitably the birth of life.
While the Abyss Evil Eye is a unique monster, Bai Yan was somewhat stunned as he looked at the Evil Eyes within the blood-red territory of the Abyss, several slender fleshy tendrils supporting a head, the tendrils of this demon serve as its feet, atop the feet is the head, and atop the head is a singular gigantic eyeball.
The attribute focus of the Abyss Evil Eye is intelligence; they are slow-moving, and their mode of attack is by shooting energy beams similar to lasers from the eyeball to attack the enemy.
The Abyss Evil Eye also has a demon skill and talent, but Bai Yan felt somewhat indifferent to its demon talent.
My Demon’s Eye also possesses the clairvoyant effect of talent.
Bai Yan curled his lip.
Whether it’s the Abyss Demon Tree or the Abyss Evil Eye, in terms of the four major attributes, both are less formidable compared to the attributes of Bai Yan’s own second-level Great Inferior Demon.
Strictly speaking, Bai Yan is a "wild" Abyss Demon, whereas the eighteen second-level demons from the demon breeding farm are mass cultivated, and in terms of strength levels, they are not as powerful as Bai Yan.
Bai Yan really wanted to continue sacrificing these eighteen Abyss Demons to upgrade, but considering that there was already a ten percent failure rate in cultivating second-level demons, what if cultivating third-level demons encountered failure?
Bai Yan now only has eighteen second-level demons and can only attempt to cultivate to third-level demons once. Should it fail, his efforts would be wasted.
After much deliberation, Bai Yan decided to give up.
"Let’s try to cultivate third-level demons when I have a large amount of demon energy in the future."
Bai Yan murmured to himself.
After tidying up a bit, Bai Yan left his dormitory and drove to pick up An Xiaowan.
Inside the An Family Mansion on St Kilda Road.
An Yan sat on the couch, her slender waist supple beyond compare, swaying with the movement of her beautiful legs.
An Xiaowan sat across from her, dressed in a light blue pleated skirt, which made her appear pure and beautiful.
However, An Xiaowan’s expression was somewhat tense, as if awaiting judgment.
Just now, she summoned the greatest courage she’s ever had in her life and confronted An Yan about it!
She admitted that she liked Bai Yan.
An Xiaowan nervously fidgeted with the hem of her clothes, her hands pale and delicate, her face somewhat anxious.
She worried that her sister would blame her, but she couldn’t restrain her own feelings, either.
"Sigh, silly little sister."
An Yan held An Xiaowan’s hand, sighing as she spoke: "What’s so good about this man from the Bai Family that makes you so obsessed with him?"
"But I just like him, I can’t hold back... Sister, I’m sorry... You said you didn’t love him, so that’s why I today..."
An Xiaowan felt guilty; her sister had always given in to her since they were little.
An Xiaowan didn’t want her sister to feel like she was snatching her man away. If An Yan also liked Bai Yan, An Xiaowan would definitely suppress her feelings, she absolutely wouldn’t overstep!
However, An Yan had repeatedly declared in front of her that she would never fall for Bai Yan.
"Sister, do you like him?"
"No, I will never like him in this lifetime!"
An Yan’s tone was extremely firm, her beautiful eyes tinged with sorrow as she looked at An Xiaowan, holding her small hand, and gently comforting: "If he has caught your eye, then he’s a lucky fool. Our An Family doesn’t need him to be talented and wealthy; we just need him to be sincere and good to you."
An Xiaowan’s face flushed, pouting and stomping her foot coyly.
She knew that her sister had agreed.
As long as her sister gave her blessing, the marriage proposal wouldn’t be an issue. After all, the An Family had already agreed to marry one of their daughters to him; that was the initial deal.
"Go and change your clothes. That scoundrel will be coming to pick you up soon."
"Also, you had him stay at the mansion before, didn’t you? I’m usually busy with work and not often at home, so have him pack up his things today and move in for good, to accompany you through the rest of your study abroad time."
"Not at all~ Don’t tease me, sister, I’m going to change!"
An Yan chuckled softly as she watched An Xiaowan bound upstairs lightly, the foolish girl’s face brimming with a happy and joyful smile.
But An Yan’s brows were faintly furrowed, as though a trace of unshakable worry lingered between them.
Silly girl, do you really think your sister can’t see?
You’ve liked him for more than just a year or two. If it weren’t for your sister’s prearranged marriage, he would have already been your man.
Actually, the preferences and tastes of the An Family sisters have been astonishingly similar since they were young.
Whatever the older sister likes, the younger sister will like too.
Whatever the younger sister likes, the older sister will like as well.
This is probably what it means to be sisters in unison.
Since childhood, the relationship between the An Family sisters has been extremely close.
That’s why the older sister would always buy two of everything. For things that could not come in pairs, she would just give them to her.
But in this world, there’s only one Bai Yan.
The little sister wouldn’t know that the older sister actually likes this scoundrel, too. Having spent so many memorable years together, how could An Yan not be moved? But how could she compete for a man that her younger sister likes?
If it weren’t for An Xiaowan secretly cherishing this scoundrel all this time, how could An Yan bear to keep acting like she didn’t like Bai Yan and insist on opposing the marriage arrangement.
An Yan sighed deeply.
She could no longer think of herself now; Xiaowan’s happiness was what mattered most!
An Yan smiled with a trace of bitterness.
An Yan just hoped that scoundrel would treat Xiaowan well and not let her be wronged.
As long as Xiaowan is happy, what can’t I, as an older sister, give up?
