Chu Yun's forehead showed a few dark lines.

This System is truly something else, so full of contradictions!

"Wait a minute!"

"The background connections for Meng Changzhong, Meng Ruoxue, and the others are still within an acceptable price range."

"But why does Xu Nian's brother's Editing Points reach a staggering six thousand?"

"Is this some kind of joke?"

Chu Yun immediately felt that some of the prices were unreasonable!

A scammer!!

An absolute scammer!!

[System: Master, although Xu Nian is only at the peak of the Nirvana Realm, his identity within Misty Rain Pavilion is quite extraordinary.]

[He is the nephew of a high-ranking official in Misty Rain Pavilion's headquarters. The reason he was sent to the Great Xia Dynasty was because he made some mistakes and was reassigned here.]

[However, with his uncle's capabilities, it's only a matter of time before Xu Nian is transferred back to Misty Rain Pavilion's headquarters. Therefore, his Editing Points of six thousand are truly not high; it's even considered a very reasonable price!]

Chu Yun: (●°u°●)​ 」Seriously?]

[System: We are honest with all customers!]

"What about those later ones?"

"Why are they all outrageously expensive? Even more so than the Heavenly Mandate Empress's connections?"

"Who are those people?"

[Xiaoyaozi, a peerless heavenly prodigy from the previous generation of the Origin Realm. He dedicated his life to the sword, traveling the world under the guise of a Rogue Cultivator. He achieved the Supreme realm and was known as invincible within his own realm!]

[As for the Rakshasa Gate Master, the strength of the Rakshasa Gate is many tiers above the Great Xia Dynasty. In the Rakshasa Gate, those in the Venerable Realm can at most serve as protectors or elders. Only those who reach the Supreme realm are considered core high-ranking members.]

[Mitian Saint King, a super-being who has transcended the mortal realm. With a single thought, he can control everything in the Great Xia Dynasty!]

"My goodness!"

"That's terrifying!"

"Invincible within his own realm... and transcended the mortal realm, these people are aiming for the heavens!"

Chu Yun marveled at the strength and background of these individuals.

However, with his current Editing Points, he couldn't consider them.

He needed to solve the immediate problem first. His most suitable option right now was to choose to edit the background of either the Heavenly Mandate Empress or the Sky Demoness.

But his current Editing Points were not enough for the Heavenly Mandate Empress.

After much thought, he decided to choose the Sky Demoness's former beloved to edit the background!

"Edit the Sky Demoness's former beloved background."

Chu Yun's Editing Points instantly dropped to only 400 points.

[Background is being edited, please wait...]

[Causality alteration complete...]

[Identity reset complete...]

[Ding! Congratulations Master, identity editing successful!]

As the background editing was completed, a sliver of memory appeared in Chu Yun's mind.

A long time ago, the Sky Demoness was just an ordinary young girl. Because she was frail and often ill, a boy, who was also an orphan, had always taken care of her.

Gradually, as they spent time together, feelings developed between them, but neither of them ever confessed their feelings.

Until one day, because of the Sky Demoness's breathtaking beauty, she attracted the attention of a young master from a prominent family.

He desired to possess the Sky Demoness and directly killed the boy in front of her.

By the time the boy was dying, the Sky Demoness hadn't even had a chance to confess her feelings to him.

Witnessing her beloved die before her eyes completely shattered the Sky Demoness's emotions, causing her dormant Heavenly Soul Demonic Body to awaken!

Thus, this legendary figure appeared in the history of the Origin Realm!

And Chu Yun's identity was the reincarnation of that deceased boy.

"Good heavens, this plot... truly a case of 'beloved sacrificed to the heavens, power boundless'!"

Chu Yun clicked his tongue.

It was a pity the Sky Demoness didn't shout out, "Resurrect, my love!"

Otherwise, the story would have truly reached its climax.

Chu Yun then glanced at a mole on the center of his palm, and he also had a birthmark on his leg.

These were the unique marks on that boy's body back then.

When the time came, he just needed to casually reveal them in front of the Sky Demoness.

Everything naturally fell into place.

Although a reincarnated body doesn't necessarily retain the characteristics of its past life, if the Sky Demoness became suspicious, she would definitely find a way to verify it herself.

And Chu Yun, at this moment, feared verification the least!

"Your Highness, are you there?"

Just then, someone knocked on the door. It was Atai's voice.

"What is it?"

Upon hearing Chu Yun's voice, Atai immediately said, "Your Highness, Miss Yu has returned and wishes to see you."

Chu Yun was a little surprised. Speak of the devil, and she appears.

But logically, the Sky Demoness should be at the Third Prince's mansion right now. Why did she suddenly return? Could something important have happened?

"Have her come over."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Not long after Atai left, a captivating fragrance wafted from the doorway.

The Sky Demoness pushed the door open without knocking. "You seem quite at leisure."

As soon as she entered, she saw Chu Yun sitting at the table, alone, enjoying hot pot and fine wine. She commented.

"It's cold, sit down and have some with me?" Chu Yun smiled and said casually.

The Sky Demoness then walked over and sat beside him. "Aren't you curious why I suddenly came back?"

Chu Yun shook his head. "This is your home; you can return anytime."

His words left the Sky Demoness feeling a bit bewildered. Is this guy sick? Trying to flirt?

She wasn't some naive girl new to the world. Chu Yun's words almost made her laugh.

The Sky Demoness's expression turned serious. "I came to tell you that the Heavenly Mandate Empress plans to refine the Source of Nirvana."

"You know my relationship with her."

"Therefore, I must stop her!"

"Her strength is not inferior to mine. I will go in person, but if anything unexpected happens that affects this clone, then I can't do anything about it."

Chu Yun wasn't foolish; he understood her words.

He instantly grasped the Sky Demoness's intention.

Naturally, she wanted Chu Yun to help her deal with the Heavenly Mandate Empress and prevent her plan to refine the Source of Nirvana from succeeding.

After all, if the Sky Demoness's clone were affected, it would be Chu Yun's own problem.

After swallowing his food, Chu Yun said calmly, "I never said I wouldn't help you."

"Tell me the specific time and place, and I will personally go and help you deal with the Heavenly Mandate Empress."

The Sky Demoness was somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected Chu Yun to agree so readily!

This was beyond her expectations.

However, she didn't know that Chu Yun definitely wanted to disrupt Meng Ruoxue's plan. Otherwise, the Source of Nirvana he held would end up gathering dust in a warehouse, just like Nianpeng Asura's.

"Good."

"When she makes her move, I will notify you immediately," the Sky Demoness nodded and said.

"Are you really not going to have some?"

"This hot pot is incredibly fragrant."

Chu Yun invited her again. The Sky Demoness then glanced at the hot pot in front of her. Looking at the ingredients boiling inside, a memory she had long suppressed deep within her heart seemed to lift its veil.

Years ago, before she had embarked on the path of cultivation, that person had also cooked hot pot with the exact same ingredients as those in the pot. They had eaten heartily together in a dilapidated temple on a snowy day.

Seeing the Sky Demoness's momentarily lost expression, Chu Yun inwardly rejoiced. This pot of hot pot was his little trick.

"If you want to eat, just say so. Why are you spacing out?"

"Here, I'll serve you myself. That's giving you enough face, isn't it?"

Chu Yun took a bowl and personally served her a portion, deliberately turning his palm towards her as he handed it over.

The Sky Demoness snapped back to attention. Just as she was about to take it...

Her eyes suddenly landed on the mole on Chu Yun's palm. In an instant, her expression and movements froze!
