This chapter contains Lin Yu's beast form design
Who are my relatives?
Faced with Lin Yu's question, even though she had already expressed to Lin Yu that they "felt like old friends" and even made a pact to take revenge on other Yaomo together, Meng Qingjun remained slightly reserved and did not speak directly when asked this question.
"Well... brother, it's not that I don't trust you—it's just that if your relative is also a Demon Lord, it would be good if our two families had a past relationship."
"But... if there are some grudges or frictions, wouldn't it be difficult for both of us to get along?"
Meng Qingjun paused briefly before continuing, "My mother has been gone for a long time... so I think it would be better to discuss these things after we've gotten to know each other better."
The Giant Bear Great Sun and the Furious Pig Howls at Heaven were right.
Although Meng Qingjun had just brought up some information about her background, Meng Qingjun was indeed unwilling to delve deeper into the topic.
However, Lin Yu naturally wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.
Meng Qingjun took a step back. Although he was not aggressive and did not continue to press the matter, he did not let the topic drop either.
Lin Yu took a step forward, taking a roundabout approach.
"Meng Qingjun, I believe you wouldn't be that kind of person... Even if there really is a grudge between us, you wouldn't harm me—and of course, I wouldn't harm you either."
"Let the previous generation handle the affairs of the previous generation. I want to know about your background, but I also want to understand your abilities. That way, if we work together to eliminate other Yaomo, we'll have better teamwork."
"However, since you, Meng Qingjun, are unwilling to tell me, I will take the initiative and tell you about my background... This is also a way to show my sincerity."
"After all, I believe my relatives among the Yaomo... won't have too many enemies."
As he spoke, Lin Yu raised his Right Hand, his index and little fingers raised, his middle and ring fingers bent together and pinched together with his thumb, sticking out tightly.
Demonic energy surged from his body, followed by a golden glow. Then, a pair of red fox ears appeared on the top of his head, and seven fluffy fox tails spread out behind him.
A fleeting scent of Desire crossed his face, and Lin Yu smiled as he spoke, "Brother Meng Qing... I wonder if you've ever heard of the name 'Six Desires Demon Lord'?"
Meng Qingjun stared at Lin Yu, her expression momentarily blank. She opened her mouth, then clapped her hands.
A pair of fox ears also grew on the top of his head, and eight fox tails hung down from his back.
However, Meng Qingjun's ears and tail were snow-white.
Meng Qingjun looked at Lin Yu and slowly said, "The Six Desires Demon Lord... is my mother."
Lin Yu was stunned when he saw Meng Qingjun's expression. "Huh?"
"Hmm, what are you surprised about?" Meng Qingjun said, rubbing his head, his ears twitching. "I should be the one surprised. Oh dear... really... Brother, I've been calling you brother for so long, are you really my brother?"
"You've cultivated for hundreds of years... are you my Older Brother or my younger brother?"
Lin Yu looked at Meng Qingjun and immediately said, "Uh, in that case, I should be your... uncle."
"The Six Desires Demon Lord is my sister."
Meng Qingjun thought she was no longer shocked, but she was stunned by Lin Yu's words. "Ah, Uncle?"
Are you from the same generation as my mother?
Lin Yu scratched his face. "Yeah, I'm from the same generation as her... I never expected you to be my nephew."
Meng Qingjun opened her mouth, but immediately raised a new question.
"That's not right. Mother is a purebred white fox... We've been white fox Fox Demon for generations, so why are your ears the color of a red fox?"
Lin Yu sighed, "You have to allow your Grandfather to make some Error... Besides, we're all Yaomo now, so this isn't really a big problem, is it?"
Meng Qingjun still frowned. "How come I've never heard my mother mention that she has any brothers or sisters?"
Lin Yu spread his hands. "I already told you that your Grandfather made an Error... It's not something to be proud of, but maybe they didn't say anything because you're young."
"However, your mother and I had a fairly good relationship—after she served the Heavenly Demon and became the Demon Lord, she didn't forget to introduce me to Demon Lord."
"So... the power of this 'Desire' is undeniable, isn't it?"
As Lin Yu spoke, golden light condensed into a ball in his hand, which he played with back and forth.
When Meng Qingjun heard Lin Yu say this, and felt the Desire Golden Light in his hand that was indeed genuine and impossible to fake, she slowly nodded.
"That's true... So, you really are my uncle?"
Meng Qingjun spoke, her voice trembling slightly.
Lin Yu nodded. "It's absolutely true... I had no idea that my poor sister still had Bloodline left in the world..."
Lin Yu noticed the vulnerability in Meng Qingjun's eyes and immediately spoke, his tone filled with pity and joy. "I thought that since my sister passed away... I would be all alone in this world... I never imagined that I would meet my sister's descendant today..."
"Although I didn't recognize the face and the scent wasn't quite the same, your tail really does resemble your mother's..."
Meng Qingjun wrinkled her nose, her voice bitter. "Uncle, it's because I deliberately changed my aura... That day, Mother was personally punished by the Dao Ancestor, struck by heavenly lightning and her soul was scattered... Before she died, she instructed me to hide my aura, because the Desire Heavenly Demon that she served had been banished from the Two Mountains and Six Hells, which is why the Dao Ancestor wanted to exterminate our lineage."
"Uncle... I have no choice. Mother said that I can only unleash the power of Desire again after three hundred years, or when I regain the position of Demon Lord."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu gently stepped forward and embraced Meng Qingjun.
The Great Demon, dressed in a brocade white robe, was even more slender than Lin Yu had expected. Her waist was extremely narrow and her back was very thin. When Lin Yu embraced her, her body swayed slightly.
"Good child, good child... You've suffered so much..."
"But it's alright, from now on, you won't be alone—and neither will I."
As Lin Yu spoke, Lin Yu felt a slight dampness on his shoulder. With a "plop," Meng Qingjun's tears fell onto it.
"Uncle!"
As Meng Qingjun spoke, he slightly broke free from Lin Yu's embrace, seemingly realizing that his tears were somewhat shameful, and a hint of shyness appeared on his handsome face.
He took a few steps back, grabbed Lin Yu's wrist, and said, "But, Uncle... how can you wield the power of 'Desire' so freely? This power is practically taboo in the Prison Mountain Realm right now!"
"You've revealed yourself so rashly... I fear for the world..."
As she spoke, a look of worry appeared on Meng Qingjun's face.
Of course, it's because I'm not Yaomo at all, and I might even be on the Dao Ancestor's whitelist...
Lin Yu thought to himself, but his face remained mysterious.
After realizing that Meng Qingjun was actually a Bloodline of the Six Desires Demon Lord, Lin Yu initially felt uneasy. After all, he knew that the Six Desires Demon Lord was indeed dead, and with the "God of Desire" in his hands, Meng Qingjun could not provide him with any new assistance.
But...
After a brief moment of thought, Lin Yu immediately came up with a better way to utilize Meng Qingjun's method.
"That's because... I'm already the 'Demon Lord'."
Lin Yu spoke.
Meng Qingjun's face showed surprise. "You're already the Demon Lord... but..."
He looked at the seven tails behind Lin Yu, somewhat hesitantly. "But Uncle... didn't you just cultivate seven tails?"
"Hehe, the number of tails can indeed represent the depth of our Fox Demon' cultivation and level of power, but... our methods for enhancing our strength are not limited to cultivation and cultivation," Lin Yu said, his tone somewhat unfathomable, "In fact... the cultivation I gained through cultivation is indeed not high, and in terms of that aspect, I might actually be inferior to you, my nephew..."
"However, before my sister perished, she had a vague premonition, so she instructed me beforehand... If she were to die and not survive the heavenly tribulation, then I should guard and protect the fundamental power of 'Desire' for her."
"If given the chance... I could also use that primordial power to strengthen myself."
"And in the long years after your mother's death, I also studied the primordial power she left behind... Although it was very risky, I succeeded."
"Now, although I may appear to be just a demon with relatively low cultivation, someone who has only cultivated for a few hundred years and can fully transform into Great Demon form,... if I were to utilize the power of 'Desire,' I could naturally obtain a level of power equal to or even surpassing that of an ordinary Demon Lord."
Lin Yu paused for a moment, then continued, "However, this method also has drawbacks. After all, it's forcibly breaking through Divine Rank by relying on the power bestowed by the Heavenly Demon. If used too often... it will eventually damage one's very essence."
"Actually, back then I didn't know why my sister left me with the fundamental power of 'Desire,' but after meeting you... I understand."
"Perhaps, she hopes I can use this power to Protection you for her."
"And... you said she warned you not to use the power of 'Desire' before ascending to the Demon Lord level."
As Lin Yu spoke, his gaze towards Meng Qingjun softened. "I roughly understand the purpose of this... because after you ascend to the Demon Lord and utilize the power of 'Desire,' I will naturally have a way to find you—and at that time, it will also be the time when you can perfectly control this 'Desire Origin' in my hands."
Meng Qingjun blinked. "So that's what Mother was thinking... But, Uncle, could it be that this Desire Origin was something Mother specifically left for you?"
"Even if you're right, I would still have given it to you back then," Lin Yu said stubbornly. "You're so young, and you've already formed your Eight-Tails after only five hundred years of cultivation. Compared to me, your future needs this source more."
"Besides... seeing you become stronger, as strong as her... or even stronger than her, will also make me..."
"I feel gratified."
