Lias was momentarily flustered, but for some reason, she held the other’s hand. It felt soft and boneless, smooth and icy, yet there was no sense of dissonance.
It was as if... she had known this touch before.
"This is the opportunity I secured for Lias by ’aligning’ with the Morgan family."
"By some unseen design of fate, this will be a great breakthrough for Lias. I wonder to what extent her power will increase."
Chu Yi saw through the cause and effect. The attention of the gods lingered here, and with malice from the divine will directed at him, he couldn’t use [Creating Something from Nothing] to empower Lias.
William had once said that climbing the Blood Ladder would take a very long time, possibly several days and nights.
At this time, the Blood Race members began to move, also heading to climb the Blood Ladder. This would enhance their bloodline strength and allow for personal breakthroughs. If they performed well and showed potential worth nurturing, they might receive rewards from the Ancestors. A mere gaze falling upon them was a monumental fortune for these Blood Race members.
Soon, around Chu Yi, only the unconscious, silly Dragon Maiden and Bika, who was cutely rolling around, remained. He stood there alone, the scene somewhat awkward.
"A mere blood slave, daring to climb the Blood Ladder? Hah."
Albert scoffed. Having been outmaneuvered by this blood slave, he naturally wore an unpleasant expression. He fervently wished the gods would kill Chu Yi and integrate him into the Blood Ladder, to be forever trampled underfoot. Discover more novels at novel✦fire.net
This scene also caught the attention of many Alien Race members.
If it weren’t for his human identity, this young man would have also undergone a transformation. What a pity...
However, this Golden Child wouldn’t admit to being outmatched. It’s understandable; being taken out by a blood slave’s sneak attack without any chance to react, defeated before he even knew what happened—who would willingly accept such an outrageous outcome? It’s simply too preposterous.
"A defeated foe, yet you dare to whimper like a dog here. How utterly shameless," Chu Yi retorted, facing Albert’s sneers; he, of course, wouldn’t indulge him.
"What did you say?" Albert didn’t quite understand human idioms, but it was clearly not a compliment.
"Do I really need to translate it for you? What are you yapping about, dog?" Chu Yi snapped.
"ARF!" Bika, perched on Chu Yi’s shoulder, faced Albert, pulled the corners of its mouth wide, stuck out its tongue, and made a mocking face. "BLEH BLEH BLEH..."
Albert’s face darkened. Sooner or later, I’ll kill this master and pet duo, stew them in a pot! Death by a thousand cuts wouldn’t be enough to vent my anger!
He threw a punch from afar, but it was blocked by the intervening Blood Ladder and dissipated into nothingness.
"You better pray you don’t fall into my hands one day! I’ll make you wish you were dead!"
"Your family, friends, wife, and daughters will all become my slaves!"
Albert spat his harsh words, paid a price to secure a spot to climb the Blood Ladder, then turned and left.
For the Werewolf clan, known for being ruthless and concise, their verbal sparring skills were no match for Chu Yi, a veritable graduate of the "Keyboard Warrior Academy." After all, when it came to insults, being a step too slow against Chu Yi meant your parents would be gone and your entire family tree blasted into oblivion.
"You’d better pray too," Chu Yi called after him, murderous intent flaring in his heart. "Pray that one day I don’t chop off your dog head and serve it as a bar snack." This Albert dared to threaten the people around me. He must die. If it weren’t for the gods’ attention, I would have privately switched to my main account and killed this Werewolf.
"Hmph!" Albert had clearly heard him. He was furious, his anger intensifying as he quickened his pace.
The exchange between the two stirred the crowd of Alien Race members.
"This human is truly brave! I’m almost smitten with him."
"The Morgan family has found a real treasure! With a little nurturing, he could become another Blood Race Emperor!"
"Albert is a Golden Child. He lost, fair and square, but he’s still trying to talk tough. Such a sore loser. Despicable."
The Alien Race members discussed this animatedly, holding little malice toward Chu Yi. After all, once he completed the kinship ritual, he would become kin to an ancient Blood Race. For the sake of longevity and seeking breakthroughs, it wasn’t uncommon for some sophisticated egoists among humans to align themselves with the Alien Races.
"Is he really planning to side with the Alien Race?" Luo Zhen felt somewhat uneasy. He frowned and said, "If so, the Federation will indeed lose a Beast Taming Genius."
Han Bufan shook his head. "Honestly, the bloodline system suits him better than Beast Taming. Didn’t you see? He has the bloodline of the Ancient Gods. Could he have overpowered a Golden Child relying solely on Beast Taming?"
"Besides, Chu Yi was taught by Qin Zheng. With Qin Zheng’s connections, it wouldn’t be impossible for him to pave the way for Chu Yi in the Dark World."
Luo Zhen frowned and said, "We should find an opportunity to approach him and see what his true intentions are."
They had come here in their human identities and had disguised themselves to avoid attracting widespread attention from the Alien Races.
"Alright." Zhang Yi nodded, agreeing to the plan to approach Chu Yi.
Just as they were about to act, two fiery and alluring Enchanting Demons emerged from the White Bone Palace. Their seductive figures swayed with every step, their ample chests bouncing, drawing countless heated gazes.
The two women respectfully came before Chu Yi and said, "Honored guest, the great Succubus Princess admires your performance in the game and wishes to summon you. Please, accompany us."
One of the Enchanting Demon attendants, her fiery red hair cascading to her waist and her lips vividly crimson, deliberately put on a seductive air. The other exuded purity and charm, like an innocent young fawn, yet she was remarkably well-endowed, her chest full and bountiful.
Succubus Princess? Chu Yi subconsciously thought of Xing Mei, the Fourth Princess of the Enchanting Demon Royal Court.
This invitation caused an uproar among the Alien Races. Is this human so outstanding that the Enchanting Demon Royal Court is trying to snatch him away?! Moreover, Avril was climbing the Blood Ladder. This was perfectly in character for Enchanting Demons—exploiting a vulnerability to snatch someone away!
"The Princess also said that if you join her ranks, she will resolve all your troubles. You need not worry." The red-haired Enchanting Demon smiled, deliberately leaned closer, and licked her lips. "That includes us, dear guest. You may enjoy us at your leisure. By the way, we are the Princess’s Personal Guards and have never been intimate with the opposite sex."
The seemingly pure Enchanting Demon lifted her skirt slightly, curtsied gracefully, and said in a sweet, childlike voice, "Big Brother, please guide me. Doli will try her best to serve you well."
He was shocked. Xing Mei is directly using a honey trap! What on earth is her goal? But this dress is so white... No, Xing Mei must be plotting something. I can’t fall for her scheme. And those stockings are... quite something.
"Yip?" Bika, nestled on Chu Yi’s shoulder, glanced innocently at the two Enchanting Demons, not quite understanding why its master suddenly seemed pleased and somewhat excited.
At this moment, a beam of pure moonlight shone down from a magnificent, ornate palace, and a spectral woman in an ink-black dress emerged, drifting gracefully forward. It was none other than the Moon Princess’s Pet Beast, the Ghost Maid. Her figure was enchanting and her movements graceful. Below her slender waist was a swirling mass of blackness, with countless ghostly blue butterflies, formed from souls, fluttering around her.
The next moment, from Chu Yi’s perspective, it was as if the world instantly lost its color. The two Enchanting Demons’ expressions changed slightly as a force ejected them from this now colorless space.
"Young man, the Moon Princess wishes to summon you for a meeting." The Ghost Maid nodded, her posture elegant. An aura of biting coldness enveloped her, then extended to surround Chu Yi. If he refuses, I’ll take action directly and drag back the young man my master has taken an interest in.
The Moon Princess? She’s here too? He inadvertently recalled five sweet days, and Chu Yi instantly perked up. Compared to the Enchanting Demons who devour men whole, the Moon Princess, who seems clearly more righteous, is a much better option. He had a feeling the Moon Princess might have discerned his true identity. But what’s there to fear? She’s my fiancée, what’s there to fear? As the saying goes, even the ’hungriest eel will eventually get its abalone.’
"Alright. But I need to bring them with me." Chu Yi picked up Mu Yun. The silly girl was still slumbering soundly, not having woken up yet.
The Ghost Maid paused for a moment, then nodded slightly. "Please follow me."
As her words fell, countless gentle moonbeams lifted Chu Yi, along with Mu Yun and Bika, teleporting them all to the ornate palace.
This scene was like a nuclear bomb dropped among the Alien Race, instantly causing a massive uproar.
