Sky Demoness's Beloved from a Past Life

Several black lines appeared across Chu Yun's forehead.

This system really was Amaterasu—guaranteed contrast!

"Wait a second!"

"Meng Changzhong and Meng Ruoxue's background connections are still at acceptable prices."

"But why did Xu Nian's younger brother cost six thousand Editing Points?"

"Is this some kind of joke?"

Chu Yun immediately felt that the pricing here was rather unreasonable!

Profiteer!!

An absolute profiteer!!

System: Master, although Xu Nian is merely at the Nirvana Realm Peak, his status within the Misty Rain Pavilion is far from ordinary.

He is the nephew of a high-ranking figure at the Misty Rain Pavilion headquarters. The reason he came to the Great Xia Dynasty was that he made some mistakes and was transferred here.

But with his uncle's capabilities, Xu Nian's return to the Misty Rain Pavilion headquarters is only a matter of time. Thus, six thousand for editing his connections is truly not expensive—it is even quite a conscientious price!

Chu Yun: (●°u°●) "Really?"

System: Honest to the old and young alike!

"Then what about the ones after that?"

"Why was every single one outrageously expensive? Even more costly than the Heavenly Mandate Empress's connections?"

"Just who were they?"

Xiaoyaozi was an unparalleled genius of the previous generation in the Origin World. He cultivated the sword throughout his life, roamed the world as a Rogue Cultivator, attained Supremacy, and was said to be invincible among those of the same realm!

As for the Rakshasa Gate Master, the Rakshasa Gate was countless tiers stronger than the Great Xia Dynasty. In the Rakshasa Gate, those in the Venerable Realm could at most serve as protectors or elders; only those whose cultivation had reached Supremacy counted as core upper echelon members.

The Saint King Mitian was a supreme existence who had transcended the ordinary and Entered Sainthood. With a single thought, he could control everything in the Great Xia Dynasty!

"Good heavens!"

"That terrifying?!"

"Invincible in the same realm... and transcending the ordinary to Enter Sainthood—these people were practically ascending to the heavens!"

Chu Yun marveled at these people's strength and backgrounds.

But with his current Editing Points, he would not consider them for now.

He should first resolve the problem before him. At present, the most suitable choice was to select a background edit from either the Heavenly Mandate Empress or the Sky Demoness.

However, he still did not have enough Editing Points for the Heavenly Mandate Empress.

After pondering it over and over, he ultimately decided to edit the background of being the Sky Demoness's beloved from a past life!

"Edit the Sky Demoness's beloved from a past life's background."

In an instant, Chu Yun's Editing Points dropped to only 400.

Background is being edited. Please wait...

Karmic changes completed...

Identity reset completed...

Ding! Congratulations, Master. Identity edit successful!

As the background edit was completed, some memories also appeared in Chu Yun's mind.

Long ago, the Sky Demoness had been nothing more than an ordinary young girl. Frail and often ill, she had been cared for all along by a boy who was also an orphan.

Gradually, as the two spent time together, feelings blossomed between them. Sadly, neither of them ever pierced through that final veil between them.

Until one day, the Sky Demoness's beauty, like the splendor of an age, caught the attention of a young master from a great family.

Wanting to possess the Sky Demoness, he directly brought men with him and personally killed that boy before her very eyes.

Even at the moment that boy died, the Sky Demoness had not had time to tell him how she felt.

Watching the beloved who had accompanied her die before her eyes utterly shattered the Sky Demoness's emotions, awakening the Heavenly Soul Demonic Body that had lain dormant within her for many years!

Only then did such a legendary figure appear in the history of the Origin World!

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

"Damn, this plot... truly was a beloved sacrificed to heaven, power boundless!"

Chu Yun clicked his tongue.

It was just a pity that the Sky Demoness had not shouted, "Revive, my beloved!"

Otherwise, the plot really would have ascended to a higher realm.

Chu Yun looked at the mole in the center of his palm, as well as a birthmark on his leg.

Those were the distinctive marks that had been on that boy's body back then.

When the time came, he only needed to casually reveal them before the Sky Demoness.

Then everything would naturally fall into place, like water flowing through a channel.

Although a reincarnation did not necessarily retain the features of their past life.

As long as the Sky Demoness became suspicious, she would definitely find her own way to verify it.

And at this moment, what Chu Yun feared least was verification!

"Your Highness, are you there?"

At that moment, someone suddenly 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 somewhat surprised. Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrived.

But by all reason, the Sky Demoness should have been at the Third Prince's residence right now. Why had she suddenly returned? Could something important have happened?

"Let her come in."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Not long after Atai left, waves of alluring fragrance that ensnared the soul drifted in from the doorway.

The Sky Demoness did not even knock before pushing the door open and entering. "You were quite leisurely."

The moment she entered, she saw Chu Yun seated at the table alone, heating hotpot and savoring fine wine.

"It is cold. Sit down and have some?" Chu Yun smiled and casually asked.

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

Chu Yun shook his head. "This is your home. You can return whenever you want."

His words left the Sky Demoness momentarily bewildered. Was something wrong with this man? Was he trying to flirt with me?

She was not some naive fool who had just entered the mortal world. Hearing Chu Yun's words, she even found them somewhat amusing.

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

"You know the relationship between her and me."

"Therefore, I must stop her!"

"Her strength is no weaker than mine. I will go in my true body, but if anything unexpected happens and affects this avatar, there will be nothing I can do."

Chu Yun was not a fool. Hearing her words,

he instantly understood the Sky Demoness's purpose.

She naturally wanted Chu Yun to help her deal with the Heavenly Mandate Empress and prevent her plan to refine the Nirvana Source from succeeding.

After all, once the Sky Demoness's avatar was affected, it would be Chu Yun's own affairs that suffered.

After swallowing his food, Chu Yun calmly said, "This prince never said I would not help you."

"Tell me the precise time and place. When the time comes, I will personally make a move and help you deal with the Heavenly Mandate Empress."

The Sky Demoness was somewhat surprised. She had not expected Chu Yun to agree so readily?!

That truly caught her off guard.

Yet she did not know that Chu Yun was bound to sabotage Meng Ruoxue's plan. Otherwise, the Nirvana Source in his possession would end up like Nian Peng Shura, gathering dust in the warehouse.

"Alright."

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

"You really won't eat some?"

"This hotpot smells amazing."

Chu Yun invited her again. Only then did the Sky Demoness glance at the hotpot before her. Looking at the ingredients bubbling within, a memory she had long sealed away herself seemed to have been pried open at one corner deep in her heart.

Back then, before she had embarked upon the path of cultivation, that person had also cooked a hotpot with exactly the same ingredients. In a ruined temple on a snowy day, the two of them had eaten with great relish.

Seeing the Sky Demoness's slightly absent-minded expression, Chu Yun secretly rejoiced. This pot of hotpot was precisely his little scheme.

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

"Come, this prince will personally serve you. That gives you enough face, doesn't it?"

Chu Yun took a bowl and proactively filled one for her. When he handed it before the Sky Demoness, he deliberately turned his palm toward her.

The Sky Demoness came back to her senses and had just prepared to accept it when...

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