Chapter Five: What a Wealthy and Fortunate Son-in-Law!

Page (1/3)
Bai Lingxuan’s parents were slain by the demon clan, but she still had family within the Priest Sanctuary—her grandfather, Bai Yufan. As the sanctuary’s favored daughter, the most gifted of the younger generation, her marriage to the Demon God Emperor would mean betraying humanity...
Yet, if her sacrifice could buy ten years of respite for Zhen Nan Pass, she was willing to make that choice.
No one at Zhen Nan Pass would ever know of her deeds or sacrifices...
Moreover, from the brief information Feng Yun had revealed, the demon clan already possessed a god!
Humanity stood no chance...
Fortunately, this god did not advocate the extermination of humans.
Feng Xiu nodded slightly: “I will keep my identity concealed. In a few days, we will go together to your home and formally propose to your grandfather.”
“Mm,” Bai Lingxuan responded softly.
Outside the room, Feng Yun was far from idle.
Her eyes turned a deep blue, a sharp gaze piercing through space, fixed on the core of the Saint-Demon Continent’s plane.
Every plane had its core—the consciousness of that plane.
At that moment, an exasperated voice echoed in Feng Yun’s mind: “What are you trying to do again?”
“Your soul has been here with me for over three thousand years. You’ve comprehended all the laws you could. What more do you want?”
This voice belonged to the plane’s consciousness.
Feng Yun’s soul had first been placed by the Creator God at this plane’s core, where myriad laws awaited her enlightenment for three millennia.
Along the way, she had made a few enemies with the plane consciousness.
In the following three thousand years, Feng Yun returned to her body, using the laws she mastered to transform herself, elevating her physical form to divine status.
“I want you to change Abao and Leng Xiao’s lineage to be from Bai Lingxuan,” Feng Yun said calmly.
Now that history had been altered, she didn’t want the Demon God Emperor’s original children, Abao and Leng Xiao, to be erased by butterfly effects.
She was very fond of those two children.
“No way!” the plane consciousness snapped in frustration.
If not for the Creator God’s favor, it would have eliminated this annoying Feng Yun long ago.
“Then I will seize Austin Griffin now and have him destroy your plane,” Feng Yun said coldly.
The plane consciousness immediately softened its tone, adding a hint of plea: “I’ll change it, I’ll change it, is that not enough?”
Feng Yun nodded slightly: “A promising pupil.”

Plane consciousness: …
For the Creator God’s sake, I’ll endure it!
After Feng Yun departed, the plane consciousness couldn’t help but wonder aloud: “Why did the Creator God choose you? Why tolerate a god like you existing on this continent?”
“Ah…”
Not long after, Feng Xiu and Bai Lingxuan emerged from the house.
Feng Xiu’s talent for coaxing was considerable; Bai Lingxuan was no longer angry.
Feng Yun glanced at Feng Xiu: “Feng Xiu, I will lift the seal that suppresses your internal spiritual power and help you conceal your demonic aura.”
“The imposing Demon God Emperor, for the sake of love, actually sealed his own internal spiritual power. Even if you have seven hundred thousand external spiritual power, that doesn’t mean you’re invincible.”
“Aren’t you afraid of being besieged by a title-level demon hunting group?”
As Feng Yun’s voice grew stern, Feng Xiu, who had broken through to the ninth rank and had not been scolded since, dared not argue.
The elder’s words woke him, and also his infatuated mind.
“Your sister is right.”
At this moment, the mighty Demon God Emperor lowered his proud head before Feng Yun.
Feng Yun waved her hand gently; a golden light settled on Feng Xiu’s brow.
He felt the seal within his body dissolve instantly, but before his aura could escape, it was locked away by golden energy in his dantian.
The golden energy stained his meridians as well.
Moreover, Feng Yun disguised Feng Xiu’s appearance.
Although still handsome, his black hair turned golden, his features softened, making him look like a sunny, approachable neighbor.
Feng Xiu fell into deep thought.
This power was... a higher form of light energy!
Light energy carrying the laws of light.
Laws—the rules of the world, the principles governing all things—were the exclusive authority of gods.
Indeed, Feng Yun had disguised Feng Xiu’s dark attribute as light.
Having spent three thousand years comprehending elemental laws, Feng Yun naturally could cloak spiritual attributes.
After hearing Feng Yun’s words, Bai Lingxuan was slightly shocked.
She had never expected the formidable Demon God Emperor to seal his internal spiritual power just to keep his identity from being discovered.
Truly, her Feng brother loved her deeply...

After finishing, Feng Yun said calmly, “Enough delay, let’s go.”
She raised her hand and lightly drew it forward. A spatial portal appeared before the three of them.
Feng Yun took Bai Lingxuan’s hand, and a golden light enveloped her, protecting her from the violent spatial energies.
Bai Lingxuan was only seventh rank now and could not withstand the turbulent forces inside the spatial rift.
“Let’s go.”
Thoughtful Feng Yun led Bai Lingxuan into the portal.
Feng Xiu followed suit.
At the portal’s other end lay the Priest Sanctuary headquarters at Zhen Nan Pass.
Within the Human Alliance were six great sanctuaries: Knight, Magic, Soul, Priest, Assassin, and Warrior Sanctuaries.
Bai Lingxuan and her grandfather Bai Yufan belonged to the Priest Sanctuary; the Bai family was a longstanding clan within it.
Not long after, inside a villa at Zhen Nan Pass, a few hysterical exclamations echoed.
“What? Lingxuan, you and him have already pledged yourselves?”
Bai Yufan, Bai Lingxuan’s grandfather, paced the room anxiously.
The old man wore the white robes of a priest. Though aged, he was still vigorous, serving as the Deputy Head of the Priest Sanctuary’s Ritual Hall.
The Ritual Hall housed the sanctuary’s top experts, and Bai Yufan’s strength was at eighth rank, nearing ninth!
He scrutinized Feng Xiu up and down.
The young man was quite handsome and worthy of his granddaughter.
But the moment his gaze fell on Feng Xiu’s tightly clasped hand with Bai Lingxuan’s, an unnamed fury arose.
His granddaughter had been deceived by a blond-haired fellow!
Feng Yun stood nearby, watching the scene unfold.
Since leaving Nebula City, Feng Yun had changed her clothes—from black robes to white—and altered her appearance.
Her original black robes were the first-generation Demon God Emperor’s robes, similar in style to the current emperor’s, and would surely be recognized in Zhen Nan Pass.
Bai Lingxuan gently placed her hand on her abdomen and dropped an even more explosive revelation:
“Yes, grandfather, Feng brother and I already have a child.”
“What? You already have children!!!”
