Yin Feijing felt a sudden daze.

She had been born on the Southern Barbarian Continent, living with her aunt, Zhou Xuan.

Since childhood, Yin Feijing had always been draped in a thick black cloak by Zhou Xuan, concealing her entire face.

Zhou Xuan’s most frequent saying was:“Until you possess absolute power, beauty itself is a sin.”

At that time, Yin Feijing didn’t understand.

She merely looked at other demons who had parents, feeling envious.

She asked Zhou Xuan where her parents were.

Zhou Xuan said that her parents had gone to a very distant place. But her aunt would always be with her.

Young and confused, Yin Feijing was lost.

Only growing up did she understand.

A distant place meant death.

Yin Feijing’s father was the former leader of the Qingqiu Fox Clan. And her mother, while exploring a secret realm, perished.

Since then, the young Yin Feijing had to rely on her aunt Zhou Xuan for everything.

Eight hundred years later.

Seeing that Yin Feijing had reached the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm, Zhou Xuan arranged a trial for her.

In the Central Continent, there was a human kingdom named the Lan Kingdom.

Long, long ago, Zhou Xuan had left a ring there for Yin Feijing to retrieve.

But with one condition.

In the Lan Kingdom, she must not enchant anyone, and avoid killing if possible.

Just find the ring!

Then, Zhou Xuan drew a sketch of the ring and handed it to Yin Feijing, promising her that as long as she brought back the ring, Yin Feijing would become the new leader of the Qingqiu Fox Clan.

Stimulated by such a reward, Yin Feijing immediately came to the Central Continent.

She obtained the Concealment Pendant, disguised herself as a maid, and began searching for the ring’s whereabouts in the palace.

One day, while Yin Feijing was rummaging through the Jingxin Hall, she unexpectedly collided with the ruler, Yin Zhi.

The accompanying guards immediately prepared to execute Yin Feijing as a thief on the spot.

But were stopped by Yin Zhi.

He was certain that, in his youth, there had been an illegitimate daughter outside the palace, and later lost.

Then, Yin Zhi became convinced that Yin Feijing was his lost illegitimate daughter.

Thus, she should be recognized as a princess.

At that time, Yin Feijing was stunned.

She was a demon; how could she be a human’s illegitimate daughter?

Yin Feijing was about to point out that Yin Zhi had mistaken her identity.

But then she thought, a princess should reside in the palace.

This made it easier for Yin Feijing to act.

So she went along with the mistake, and accepted the identity.

When Yin Zhi learned that Yin Feijing also bore the surname Yin, he immediately burst into tears.

This left Yin Feijing completely bewildered. She quickly asked what was going on.

Yin Zhi, however, kept waving his hands.

Yin Feijing thought he was simply overwhelmed with joy at finding his lost daughter, so she didn’t stop him.

All this time, Yin Feijing had thought that Yin Zhi had mistaken her for someone else.

But now it seemed that might not be the case.

Yin Feijing looked down at the jade bracelet. It had been put on her by her aunt Zhou Xuan before she left.

Hearing Yin Zhi’s question, Yin Feijing tentatively said, “Do you know this thing?”

Yin Zhi gave a self-deprecating smile, “I bought this and gave it to her. Your mother, Zhou Xuan, is she well?”

Listening to their conversation, Ye Yu felt that a big reveal was about to come.

Could it be that Yin Feijing was only a half-demon?

No, that didn’t make sense.

When they had first met, the demonic energy within Yin Feijing had been solidified. Far beyond what a half-demon could compare to.

So if she wasn’t a half-demon, what exactly was going on?

Yin Feijing softly said, “Zhou Xuan isn’t my mother; she’s my aunt!”

Upon hearing this, Yin Zhi was momentarily stunned.

Then a flush of red appeared on his face.

“She isn’t your mother? She really isn’t your mother?”

Yin Feijing decisively shook her head.

Yin Zhi asked again, “Then does your aunt have a Dao partner?”

Yin Feijing shook her head once more.

The two silent answers seemed to have given Yin Zhi a new lease on life.

From looking critically injured and near death, his complexion now flushed, and he was full of energy.

He stood up again.

Yin Feijing’s expression was strange as she took a step back.

“Why are you asking these things?”

Then, Yin Zhi began recounting his story with Zhou Xuan.

A thousand years ago, Yin Zhi was not yet the ruler of the Lan Kingdom, just a prince. He had been ambushed, sustaining severe injuries.

Fortunately, Zhou Xuan happened to pass by and performed a heroic rescue.

The scene of a beauty rescuing hero made Yin Zhi immediately fall in love with her.

Under the onslaught of sweet words, Zhou Xuan quickly succumbed.

The two fell in love.

Later.

Because Yin Zhi was chosen as the ruler of Lan Kingdom, some misunderstandings occurred between them.

Zhou Xuan left in anger.

Although Yin Zhi searched high and low, he found no trace of her. Eventually, he became despondent, spending his days in regret.

A few days ago, when he saw Yin Feijing appear wearing that jade bracelet, Yin Zhi instinctively believed that Yin Feijing was his daughter with Zhou Xuan.

When he learned that Yin Feijing also bore the surname Yin, he became even more convinced of this belief.

He also thought that Zhou Xuan still had feelings for him, so she sent their daughter to him.

However, Yin Zhi did not reveal this matter. He planned to confess to Yin Feijing after she assumed the throne.

At that time, it would also be easier to find Zhou Xuan.

After hearing Yin Zhi’s story, Yin Feijing and Ye Yu’s expressions became quite awkward.

So it was all a misunderstanding?

But Yin Zhi waved his sleeve grandly.

“It’s fine, an aunt is also like a mother! When the time comes, I’ll still give you the throne of Lan Kingdom. Those useless princes can’t manage it properly.”

Yin Feijing shook her head slightly. “I can’t. My identity doesn’t allow it!”

Yin Zhi laughed. “What’s wrong with it? Who says demons can’t become rulers of human nations?”

This remark left Yin Feijing and Ye Yu quite surprised.

Clearly, the Breath Concealment Pendant was intact, and Yin Feijing’s demonic energy had not leaked at all.

How could Yin Zhi possibly know about this?

Seeing their expressions, Yin Zhi immediately smiled. “Don’t be surprised. When I was with your aunt Zhou Xuan, I frequently found her items to conceal demonic energy. So I’m familiar with the Concealment Pendant around your neck.”

“The moment I saw you, I knew you were a demon!”

Yin Feijing blinked in disbelief.

“You don’t mind my identity at all?”

Yin Zhi pointed at Ye Yu. “He’s not surprised either; he must also know your identity as a fox demon. Doesn’t he mind either?”

“Daoist friend, you’re really lucky to be with the Qingqiu fox clan member.”

The last sentence was directed at Ye Yu.

Ye Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.

Lucky?

In what sense?

Let’s discuss it!

Yin Feijing quickly said, “I’m not in a Dao companion relationship with him. Don’t say such things.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a huge hole suddenly appeared above the secret chamber.

Queen Zhou and Wu Renbi, accompanied by a dozen cultivators, slowly descended.

They coldly said, “Finally, we found you!”

At the same time, Yun Wuci had already returned to the Central Continent and was heading towards Crimson Yin Cliff.
