Evil Infant Acknowledges a Master, Sky Demoness Suffers a Loss?

Inside Chu Yun's room.

Summoned by him, Venerable Wan Lei was also in the room at this moment.

Chu Yun held an item in each hand: the Heavenly Bloom Cauldron in his left, and the box containing the Evil Infant in his right.

Because of the lack of time, after obtaining these two items, Chu Yun could only put them away for now and take them out to examine when he was free.

"Just as I thought."

"The spirit patterns on this Heavenly Bloom Cauldron are all part of an array. What exactly is sealed inside it?"

Chu Yun carefully studied the Heavenly Bloom Cauldron. With his current abilities, he was unable to undo the seal on it.

Even Venerable Wan Lei, a late-stage Venerable Realm expert, could do nothing about it because he was unfamiliar with arrays.

"Your Highness, the seal within this cauldron was at least the work of someone in the Supreme Realm."

"Unless one has a powerhouse of the same level, only someone with supreme talent in arrays would have any hope of breaking it."

Venerable Wan Lei said after confirming it repeatedly.

"Supreme Realm..."

Chu Yun was somewhat surprised. It seemed the origins of this Heavenly Bloom Cauldron might not be so simple.

But unfortunately, everyone from the Nine Splendor Sect was dead, leaving no way to investigate further.

"Forget it. Since there is no way to deal with it, I will wait until later."

Chu Yun put away the Heavenly Bloom Cauldron, then looked at the box containing the Evil Infant.

"Wan Lei, spread your power over every corner of this room. Make sure the Evil Infant's aura and power cannot leak outside."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Golden lightning power erupted from Venerable Wan Lei's palm. Immediately afterward, an invisible net of lightning descended, its power completely covering every corner of the room.

At this point, everything was ready.

Chu Yun opened the box...

BOOM!!

The next instant, countless streams of evil aura surged out of the box, nearly drowning the entire room. They were endless, even frantically trying to spread outside.

Venerable Wan Lei's lightning displayed its might at this moment. The lightning net shrouded the room, blocking all of the Evil Infant's aura from escaping.

"Hehehehe!!"

"This king has finally seen the light of day again!!"

The Evil Infant's laughter was shrill and piercing, reverberating through Chu Yun's room.

A pitch-black phantom shot out of the box in an instant. It resembled a cultivator's nascent soul, but its entire body was covered in evil aura. Like a ghostly fiend, it was wicked and sinister.

"So this is the Evil Infant..."

Chu Yun watched it with a calm expression.

Then, the power of his Netherworld Divine Eyes unfolded. His eyes turned purple, and an invisible force of the netherworld, like the Evil Infant's natural nemesis, suppressed its pressure.

"Kneel!!"

BAM!!

At Chu Yun's command, the Evil Infant's body involuntarily dropped to its knees.

"How is this possible?!"

"Brat!! Who are you?!"

"How can you control this king's body?!"

The Evil Infant was utterly horrified. It could not believe that this human brat before it could actually control it!

It was an Evil Infant, born from countless soul imprints along with evil thoughts.

Not even a Venerable could control it.

"Before me, you dare call yourself king?"

"Impudent!"

Chu Yun's tone turned cold. He used a few methods to torment the Evil Infant's infant soul.

"Ah!!"

The Evil Infant cried out miserably. "No, no, no!!"

"Please spare me!! Please spare me!!"

Hearing the Evil Infant beg for mercy, Chu Yun continued, "From today onward, I am your master."

"If you dare harbor any other intentions, a single thought from me will make you cease to exist!"

Realizing that Chu Yun could control its infant body and was practically its perfect nemesis, the Evil Infant hurriedly submitted. "Yes, yes, yes! Please spare my life, Master!"

"I will never dare act so presumptuously again!"

Only then did Chu Yun ease up, no longer continuing to torment the Evil Infant's spirit.

The Evil Infant let out a long breath, and the evil aura that had spread throughout the surroundings slowly withdrew back into him.

"What's your name?" Chu Yun asked the Evil Infant.

"Master, this king... I am called Ye Tun. In the Evil Infant Realm, they all call me the Night King," the Evil Infant said timidly.

"Ye Tun... You mentioned the Evil Infant Realm. Could it be that you Evil Infants have a world of your own?" Chu Yun asked curiously.

"Of course."

"But Master, the Evil Infant Realm is simply too far from here. Even I cannot return there for now," Ye Tun said.

"Then how were you sealed by the people of Misty Rain Pavilion?" Chu Yun asked again.

Anger immediately appeared on Ye Tun's face. "The moment you bring that up, this king... I get so furious I could burst!"

"Those turtle-bastards from Misty Rain Pavilion—I only swallowed a few of their elders, and they directly sent three Venerable Realm experts to capture me, as if we had a blood feud as deep as the sea."

"I couldn't help it. They had more people, and their cultivation was higher. In the end, they captured me."

Chu Yun's face twitched.

You swallowed their elders. Wasn't that a blood feud as deep as the sea?

What surprised Chu Yun was that Misty Rain Pavilion could dispatch three Venerable Realm experts in one go.

This faction was truly unfathomable!

"Enough. From now on, you will dwell within my spiritual sea."

"Unless I summon you, stay in there obediently," Chu Yun said.

"Yes, Master."

Ye Tun's infant body transformed into a streak of black-violet evil light and flew into Chu Yun's spiritual sea.

Venerable Wan Lei dispersed the lightning power within the room.

Chu Yun rose and walked to the door. The moment he pushed it open, he saw Xiao Xia in the courtyard, dressed in a maid's uniform and holding several bouquets of flowers whose fragrance wafted straight to his nose.

In an instant, Chu Yun's soul felt as though heaven and earth were spinning!

"Something's wrong!"

Realizing something was amiss, Chu Yun instantly activated the Netherworld Divine Eyes, seeing through all falsehoods.

He was inwardly startled. The floral fragrance was actually an unfathomably profound demonic power, guiding his soul to sink into some kind of force.

And the source of that demonic power was not the flowers.

It was a person!

Xiao Xia!

Chu Yun did not rashly make a move. His expression remained as calm as ever. "Xiao Xia, what are you doing with those flowers?"

A flicker of surprise flashed through the depths of Xiao Xia's eyes.

He hadn't fallen for it?

How was that possible? A mere Ninth Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty should not have been able to withstand her methods.

Xiao Xia smiled. "Your Highness, I picked these flowers from the garden. I thought they were beautiful, so I specially brought them for you."

Xiao Xia carried the flowers over to Chu Yun. The invisible demonic power continued to spread, completely enveloping Chu Yun.

That demonic power was powerful enough to directly cause even a Shattering Realm expert to fall under her control.

Venerable Wan Lei sensed the anomaly, but Chu Yun secretly told him not to act yet, so he pretended not to have noticed anything.

Chu Yun's expression remained unchanged. With clear eyes, he smiled and took the flowers, giving them a sniff. "These flowers are nice. They smell wonderful."

"Xiao Xia, you're so thoughtful."

Smack!!

As he spoke, Chu Yun swung his palm down onto Xiao Xia's round, perky backside.

He did it deliberately, of course.

This person had dared to impersonate Xiao Xia while refusing to reveal her true identity.

Naturally, he would be a fool not to take this advantage.

Xiao Xia's face instantly flushed red.

Her eyes widened as she stared fixedly at Chu Yun, shock and a trace of disbelief rising in her gaze!

Even in her previous life, no one had ever touched that part of her.

She was the Sky Demoness, once a figure who stood at the pinnacle of the Origin World. Though she was now only a mere avatar, the sensation was utterly real. She could clearly feel the warmth of that palm, as well as the tremble of her own backside.

This Chu Yun had made his move so smoothly and naturally. He was simply a shameless rogue!

At that moment, deep in the Sky Demoness's heart, she even wanted to kill him.
