Appraisal

Facing this respected Old Fiend, the mayor's face was no longer tinged with coldness. His former aloofness had been replaced by warmth and kindness.

"Good child, is this the third heir you've accepted?" The Yilan Abnormal Domain Master's deep and majestic gaze slowly turned to Yun Xi, his voice low and magnetic, his eyes seemingly containing a hint of scrutiny that was not easily detected.

Seeing this, Yun Xi also respectfully bowed to him, and then said in a clear but steady voice, "Lord Yu, hello, I am Yun Cai."

She lowered her head slightly, her eyes holding just the right amount of reverence and humility, her posture elegant and dignified, every movement perfectly appropriate. At this moment, the atmosphere around them seemed to become somewhat subtle because of this simple exchange.

Although Yun Xi knew that the mayor was a direct descendant of the Yu family, she never expected that his bloodline was so pure that he would be the Yu family's grandson.

She originally thought that the mayor's relationship with the Yu family was only a distant branch, but she did not expect that the truth would be far beyond her expectations. This undoubtedly gave her a deeper and more comprehensive understanding and assessment of the Yu family lineage represented by the mayor.

Yu's scrutinizing gaze, like two sharp beams of light, fell directly on Yun Xi. That gaze seemed to pierce through any disguise, carrying an unbearable pressure and a probing intent.

At this moment, Yun Xi couldn't help but feel a rare sense of tension.

After all, under these circumstances, she really didn't know whether someone like Yu, who had reached the level of a god, possessed the ability to see through the rune disguise on her body.

Although her heart was in turmoil, Yun Xi remained calm and composed on the surface.

Her expression remained unchanged, like a perfect sculpture, cold and calm. Her exquisite face was as if wearing an invisible mask, making it impossible for anyone to glimpse even the slightest fluctuation of emotion within her heart.

Whether it was the slightly upturned corners of her mouth or her clear yet deep eyes, everything was as usual, without revealing the slightest abnormality.

Goodness, the rarity of this rune is beyond imagination. It's Disguise Rune that's three times the length of a god. Perhaps only a god-level being could possess a Disguise Rune. That's why it was lucky enough not to be seen through.

Yu merely glanced at Yun Xi, then nodded kindly at her. This friendly and amiable attitude contrasted sharply with his extremely dignified image.

Yun Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Yu's sudden gentleness surprised her, and at the same time, she couldn't help but feel more curious and suspicious of this seemingly unpredictable Yu.

With the arrival of the domain, the Parasitic Faction and Non-Parasitic Faction developed two distinct attitudes.

The Non-Parasitic Faction felt as if they had found their backbone, and their cohesion and self-confidence were greatly enhanced, giving them more confidence when facing the Parasitic Faction.

The Parasitic Faction's attitude towards the domain is complex and subtle.

On the one hand, some members of the Parasitic Faction, relying on their own strength or the resources they possess, underestimate the existence of the domain to a certain extent, believing that it is not enough to have a significant impact on them or change the existing situation. Their words and actions may reveal a little disdain.

On the other hand, the Parasitic Faction dares not completely ignore certain qualities or the power that the domain possesses, fearing that easily offending it will bring them adverse consequences. Therefore, the domain will outwardly show a hint of respect in order to maintain a relatively balanced relationship.

Yun Xi keenly sensed that these Parasitic Faction, who occupied high-level positions in the Yilan Abnormal Domain, were completely different from the Parasitic Fiend in the Changfu Mansion.

After all, in the Chōfu Palace, the Parasitic Fiend's respectful attitude towards the Chōfu did not seem to be fake.

However, as long as Yun Xi recalls the resentful attitudes that the Goat-footed Maid and Rabbit-eared Maid showed her when they were first parasitized, she can clearly feel the difference between them.

At that time, the resentment emanating from the eyes of the horned and Rabbit-eared Maid seemed to devour her. Their twisted expressions and malicious gazes still linger in Yun Xi's mind.

Perhaps, besides these Parasitic Faction members who occupy high positions and stir up trouble in the Yilan Abnormal Domain, all the Non-Parasitic Faction members also have a group of Parasitic Fiend.

These parasitic Parasitic Fiend are weak and still in the early stages of development. However, due to the complex relationship between them and the Parasitic Fiend domain, even if the Non-Parasitic Faction harbors resentment, they cannot easily take action against these Parasitic Fiend.

Therefore, the only option was to raise these Parasitic Fiend creatures, just like the Parasitic Fiend in the Changfu who served as maids and servants.

Knowing that the existence of these Parasitic Fiend might bring potential threats and troubles, they could only tolerate them for the time being and carefully maintain a superficial balance and stability in order to avoid causing greater conflict and chaos.

At the same time, these parasitic Parasitic Fiend are also a kind of 'resource' in our hands, which can be used to threaten the Parasitic Faction when necessary.

It must be said that these newly born, still fledgling Parasitic Fiend have, to some extent, become a highly intimidating bargaining chip controlled by those in power.

They are like lurking eagles in the darkness, ready to be revealed at any time to threaten powerful Parasitic Fiend that oppose their own stance.

It seems that the relationships within this Yilan Abnormal Domain are indeed quite complex.

Meanwhile, all the high-ranking demons at the banquet, under the influence of the Origin Strange Energy within the Parasitic Crystal, actually broke through to the level of Abnormal God.

As for figures like Chief, who hold a high position in the Ghost Realm, they have made great strides forward with their profound knowledge and the help of the Strange Energy Crystal, eventually reaching the level of High-level Deity.

This groundbreaking progress has undoubtedly further consolidated and enhanced their status and influence in the Abnormal Domain, and also added more uncertainty and variables to the future direction of the Yilan Abnormal Domain.

In the current perilous situation, if one's identity is inadvertently exposed, it will inevitably lead to extremely serious and unmanageable consequences.

Yun Xi herself doesn't need to worry too much about this, after all, she not only possesses the Rebirth Divine Stone, but her soul is also under the comprehensive and strict protection of the system, so she will not face true death.

However, the situation was quite different for the other companions.

Even though Torres, as a high-ranking deity of the Life and Death Temple, possessed the ability to bring the dead back to life, he dared not be certain whether the souls of the people would be damaged after experiencing such a complex and dangerous situation.
