Listening to Chu Yun's words, the Sky Demoness pondered internally.
Not only had he seen through her origins, but he now dared to speak such words. It didn't seem like an act; the confidence in his demeanor was natural.
"Good."
"I accept your terms. This clone will stay by your side for three months to help you."
In the end, the Sky Demoness didn't dare to take the gamble.
After all, if this clone of hers were destroyed, her main body would also suffer a severe backlash.
If that happened, and Meng Ruoxue was trying to refine the Source of Nirvana, her main body, being heavily injured, wouldn't be able to come out and stop her.
That would be a loss that outweighed any gain.
"Since that's the case, shouldn't we be more open with each other now?"
"It's not ideal for you to keep using Xiao Xia's face all the time," Chu Yun said with a relaxed smile.
"She's fine. I knocked her out. She's sleeping in a room right now."
A faint smile flickered across the Sky Demoness's face. "As for my true appearance, are you sure you want to see it?"
"What? I can't see it?" Chu Yun asked, confused.
"I'm afraid you'll fall in love with me the moment you see me," the Sky Demoness said with a seductive smile.
"Oh?"
"Then, according to you, I must see it even more."
"What kind of beauty gives you such confidence?" Chu Yun's interest was piqued.
He wanted to see today just how beautiful the peerless expert who stood at the peak of the Origin Realm in her past life truly was.
The Sky Demoness chuckled lightly. Immediately, Xiao Xia's appearance began to change. Her entire body was enveloped in demonic energy, and her face, figure, and even her clothing transformed in an instant.
Chu Yun stared intently, his eyes genuinely stunned by the sight.
The Sky Demoness had flowing purple hair, a delicate and alluring body, a perfectly rounded waist, and a subtly curved hip – a truly flawless figure.
Her skin was crystal clear, and her beauty was like a lotus emerging from water, a face that could make fish and geese fall, exuding her unique charm.
Now that her true form was revealed, an irresistible seductive aura emanated from her. Her naturally enchanting eyes were a natural bane to men.
Chu Yun was deeply shaken. The Sky Demoness before him was undoubtedly the most stunning woman he had ever seen, considering both her face and figure combined.
Even the famous actresses, celestial beauties, and young starlets from his past life paled in comparison.
"You really weren't wrong."
"After seeing your beauty, I, Your Highness, truly find myself falling for you uncontrollably," Chu Yun said slowly, his gaze fixed on her.
The Sky Demoness blinked, unfazed. "Too many people have fallen in love with me."
"Unfortunately, none of them caught my eye."
"And that includes you."
The Sky Demoness was quite blunt.
Chu Yun shrugged. Whether she would eventually fancy him was something for the future to decide.
Once he could edit his background again, his relationship with the Sky Demoness would undergo a qualitative change.
"Wan Lei, release the seal."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Venerable Wan Lei removed the Sky Demoness's restraint.
The Sky Demoness looked at Venerable Wan Lei with curiosity. "As far as I know, there isn't a Venerable Realm expert in the royal family or the Shi family who matches your status?"
Chu Yun replied with a faint smile, "Of course not."
"He is my own man, unrelated to the royal family or the Shi family."
The Sky Demoness looked at him with surprise.
However, considering he could see through her identity, it wasn't surprising that he could subdue a Venerable Realm expert.
"Where will I be staying next?"

"I'll have someone arrange a room for you immediately. Tomorrow, I'll discuss the next course of action with you."
Under Chu Yun's arrangements, the Sky Demoness rested in a side room.
Although she had suffered a setback tonight, she had at least preserved the life of this clone.
Since Chu Yun had personally requested her to stay by his side for three months, she could take this opportunity to probe his true capabilities.
She was very curious about what kind of person Chu Yun was in his past life!
The next day.
Luo Feng arrived early in the morning to find Chu Yun, "Your Highness, are you awake?"
"Come in."
Luo Feng opened the door. Inside Chu Yun's room, the four of them, Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter, had just finished dressing him. Breakfast was also ready on the dining table.
"Alright, you can all go now."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After they left, Chu Yun walked to the table. "Commander Luo, please sit. Let's talk while we eat."
After Luo Feng sat down, he immediately asked, "Your Highness, I previously discovered a purple-haired woman with exceptional looks and demeanor in the manor. When I inquired, she said she was a friend of Your Highness?"
Chu Yun ate a few pieces of meat and nodded faintly, "Yes, her name is Yu Qingxin. You can call her Miss Yu."
"But Your Highness, she always gives me a very strange feeling."
"I feel she is not simple at all," Luo Feng said with some worry.
He was mainly afraid that the Sky Demoness would threaten Chu Yun's safety.
Chu Yun smiled, "Don't worry, she can be trusted. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let her into the manor."
"Commander Luo, you have to believe me. I cherish my own life more than any of you."
"If she couldn't be trusted, there's no way I would allow her to move freely within the manor."
Luo Feng listened to him and after a moment of thought, could only nod, "Alright, since Your Highness is so confident, I won't say any more."
"Oh, Your Highness, Consort Shi sent someone earlier to ask Your Highness to visit the palace when you have free time. She has something to tell you."
Chu Yun nodded upon hearing this, "After I finish eating, I will go to the palace to see Imperial Consort."
Misty Rain Pavilion.
In a reception room of the Misty Rain Pavilion.
The chief steward, Xu Nian, was seated there.
Opposite him sat three men.
The identities of these three men were heavyweight figures in the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
Wang Han Cuo, the third elder of the Divine Sect, the number one overlord of Tianzhou.
Black Iron King of the Great Xia Dynasty, Tie Chi.
Bei Song, the Prince of Guanshan Commandery within the Great Xia Dynasty.
Two of these three were existences at the Nirvana Realm level.
Wang Han Cuo had the highest cultivation, reaching the peak of the Nirvana Realm.
Black Iron King was second, at the late stage of the Nirvana Realm.
However, his influence was the greatest. He commanded a hundred thousand troops and held a noble status. Even the Imperial Princes of the Great Xia Dynasty had to respectfully call him 'Prince' when meeting him.
As for the Prince of Guanshan Commandery, Bei Song, although his cultivation was the lowest at only the Shattering Realm.
His daughter, the Commandery Princess Guanshan, by chance, was taken as an adopted daughter by the Imperial Advisor of the Great Xia Dynasty. She was quite famous in the Imperial City and was considered one of the influential figures among the younger generation.
Relying on his own daughter's connections and his control over a commandery, he managed to gain considerable benefits every time he came to the Imperial City.
"Gentlemen, I understand your intentions."
"It's just that the whereabouts of Xiao Yan are currently being sought by us at the Misty Rain Pavilion as well. So, it's not that Misty Rain Pavilion refuses your conditions, but rather that we are currently unable to help," Xu Nian said with a smile, looking at the three of them.
