The Demon baby's intervention was so sudden that even Shadow Elder didn't have time to react.

The petals, formed from Undead energy, continued to swirl slowly, but at that moment Shadow Elder's gaze locked onto the Demon girl, and a chilling killing intent surged forth.

Li Ziran's heart pounded wildly. He didn't even have time to lament his mental deficiency. The bone-chilling cold seemed to freeze the air in the room like ice.

"Just how many people has this person killed?"

Li Ziran was horrified. This kind of killing intent could not have been gathered by just one or two people; it must have come from at least thousands or tens of thousands.

The others were even more horrified, especially the Vampire, whose already pale faces seemed to have lost all color in their skin, leaving only a deathly pallor.

This reckless Demon girl has clearly committed a grave offense, encountering someone she shouldn't have provoked.

Puff!

A mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out, coming from the Demon baby girl who had just been laughing sweetly.

Behind her, shadows appeared, lifting the baby girl high into the air, preventing her from escaping despite her screams and struggles.

Waaaaah!

Suddenly, a shadowy hand reached out and stuffed into the whimpering little mouth.

Sizzle!

As if a piece of paper had torn, a small, bright red tongue was pulled off.

Li Ziran felt a chill run down his spine. Although he had pulled out Frog's tongues for research before, he had never had this kind of special experience.

The whimpering echoed in the room, but without a tongue, it could no longer make a sound, leaving only a small, even redder mouth, with blood seeping from the corner of its mouth, quickly staining its entire body red.

But Shadow Elder clearly wasn't going to let it go. Those shadowy hands began to pull, like a tug-of-war, trying to tear the Demon's slender snake body apart.

Waaaaah!

The Demon girl screamed even louder, but the shadowy hands couldn't hear her at all. In less than half a minute, blood began to seep from her body.

Li Ziran couldn't bear to look at it; it was clearly a tear caused by violently ripping flesh, but the baby girl's squeaking cries kept echoing in his ears.

He stared blankly at the old man, who was swallowed by the shadows, his expression completely unreadable.

This doesn't feel like a punishment; it's more like a verdict against the offender.

He began to understand why everyone was so afraid of this person; this precious Upper Demon infant seemed unlikely to survive.

The fact that they could be so ruthless, especially after already knowing the other party's value, shows they are extraordinary.

"Shadow Elder!" Sandrew called out in a low voice, mustering his courage. This was the result of his painstaking cultivation, and he had completely controlled it. He couldn't bear to let it die before it had even grown up.

He knew he had broken a taboo; the Demon girl's sudden attack had been completely unexpected, but he had no choice but to stop her.

This little girl gave him far more than anything he had ever had before.

Before Sandrew could finish speaking, he was Shadow Elder shadow's cold gaze. He let out a low groan and subconsciously touched his head, but he staggered back a step, a trickle of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

Li Ziran's heart skipped a beat. Sandrew was injured, but he hadn't seen the attack.

Moreover, this was Sandrew's first injury.

However, the Shadow Elder's stern gaze finally softened. At this moment, the Demon girl was completely submerged in blood, but fortunately, the shadow receded, not completely ending her life.

"Heh, it seems this Demon is quite uncontrollable!" At this moment, the Vampire seized the opportunity to chuckle mockingly, "Sandrew, isn't the business you're giving us just to cultivate these uncontrollable things? If we really Resurrection Spell the ten commanders from World War II, it might not be of much benefit to our Shadow Society." After saying that, he looked at Li Ziran in the corner and chuckled, "Shadow Elder, this method of cultivating Demon is novel, but I don't think it has much value."

This was the first objection. As soon as he finished speaking, the Dark Elf in the distance echoed, "Dealing with Demon is extremely risky, especially now that the Justice Alliance and the Inquisition keeping a close eye on us. I also think it's not the right time to rashly embark on such an attempt."

Sandrew was very unhappy with their opposition; he couldn't believe that these two people couldn't see the value of Upper Demon.

Risk?

Sandrew wanted to laugh. How many people who joined the Dark Council had ever been afraid of taking risks? As for the Justice Alliance and the Inquisition, did they think they wouldn't come knocking on their door even if they did nothing?

The value of Upper Demon is self-evident; the inheritance carried by its soul alone can offset all risks.

He was well aware of the thoughts of the people before him. Cultivating Demon was an extraordinary achievement, and this achievement was now in Sandrew's hands.

The Shadow Society is not a charity organization based on mutual help and love; you can be eliminated at any time here.

The exploitation here is no less severe than that of lower-level Slave-Catching Group, and suppressing rivals is one of the secrets to avoiding rapid elimination.

If the Vampire had such resources, Sandrew would not hesitate to oppose them. Unfortunately, Li Ziran now in their hands and will soon become the controller of the Shadow Society's most important business.

He didn't care what the Vampire thought; everything was up to Shadow Elder.

Looking at the serious-looking Shadow Elder, Sandrew smiled confidently, "Shadow Elder, cultivating Demon is just a small trick. Look inside this Butterfly Girl; it's quite a different story!"

As he spoke, he gave Li Ziran a wink. Li Ziran was well aware of the situation. The Shadow Society Shadowfolk, and a Demon infant alone was obviously not enough to sway him.

The Corpse Witch pulled out a scalpel, approached the Butterfly Girl, and plunged it directly into her throat at an angle, the slender blade traveling down her chest cavity.

Everyone kept glancing at Sandrew, then at Li Ziran, then at the Corpse Witch wielding the knife, completely baffled as to what he was up to.

Shadow Elder remained silent, but he could judge the market prospects for Demon breeding. By breeding Demon, he could even elevate his status in the Dark Council. However, the uncontrollability of Upper Demon was a huge hidden danger. These figures, who had dominated the world during World War II, were unpredictable in their abilities.

Although he had just suppressed the infant, it was by relying on absolute strength. If the two were of equal level and age, he would definitely not be a match for him.

Especially since the Mandala Withering, it had indeed silently dissolved a part of its soul, which was enough to prove that part of this Demon belonged to the Demon Overlord.

But his thoughts went far beyond that. While the Mandala Deathly Withering was powerful, its true value lay in the Undying Sovereign could launch a war across the entire continent.

If this human can cultivate the Embryo of Demon Overlord, could he also cultivate the Embryo of Undying Sovereign?

Moreover, there is the even more ancient First World War, where there are more profound ancient witchcraft. If the cultivation of the Embryo can Resurrection Spell the ancient Demon, what he will gain is far beyond what a small mandala can compare to.

But he wouldn't make a statement; even the slightest move he made could endanger Li Ziran's life.

Among this group, the first to perish were the so-called geniuses who had just joined the Shadow Society. They did not die in the Justice Alliance or the Inquisition, but a large portion of them perished at the hands of these people.

This group knows better than anyone how to gather resources, and plundering them from emerging geniuses is definitely the simplest method.

From what we can see so far, at least Vampire and Dark Elf elves have this intention.

He was indeed tempted; this was definitely a promising talent. But he couldn't let his attraction become Li Ziran's death knell.

Looking closely at his belly, he wondered what surprises Sandrew would have in store for him, hoping that this value would overshadow the value of nurturing the Demon.

The Vampire looked confused and uneasy; the Shadow Elder's silence proved that his words had worked.

His thinking was extremely simple: he wanted to exclude this kid and bring him under his control.

Embryo.

He needs one of the Ten Commanders, the Vampire Demon. If he can obtain the Vampire Demon's Infinite Blood Curse, it will bring about earth-shattering changes to the Vampire race.

But he was uneasy, fearing that Shadow Elder would agree.

The skin gradually split open, and the flesh began to peel away into two pieces. He heard a clear heartbeat; it was the blade tearing apart the mucous membrane protecting his heart.

Soon, a bright red heart was seen beating rapidly within the mucous membrane, with a faint red aura emanating from its surface.

That's fire Magic Power.

The Vampire frowned, not understanding what was so special about it. It was just a Magic Organ, which might be extremely precious to ordinary people, but in their eyes, it was just an ordinary thing.

The others frowned, wondering what Sandrew was up to.

Sandrew remained calm. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he probably would have thought it was just an ordinary heart. But he knew that with a few more scalpels, these people would soon be astonished.

Sizzle!

The scalpel made a diagonal cut; this was the lung connected to the heart, and it emanated a magical, aquamarine Magic Power.

"Two Magic Organ?" the Dark Elf murmured softly. Being Elves, she naturally understood that such multiple organs were quite rare.

But as the scalpel continued to slide, her expression instantly became serious.

"Three, four, five!"

She could hardly believe it; it was impossible. Even pure Elves rarely had so many Magic Organ. But this was far more than that. As the entire chest and abdomen opened, beneath the flesh and mucous membranes were exquisite organs, each shimmering with different magical luster, like jewels.

At this moment, these organs are methodically absorbing the Elemental Tide and transforming them into Magic Power of different attributes.

It possesses basic Magic Power of earth, water, wind, fire, light, and darkness, as well as rarer Magic Power such as gray, magnetism, and poison. At this moment, these organs with different Magic Power are completely concentrated in the body of a small Butterfly Girl.

There was no rejection; everything proceeded smoothly and in an orderly manner.

"Impossible! No one can have so many organs!" the Dark Elf finally cried out, unable to contain himself. "Even Elves couldn't do that, let alone an ordinary Butterfly Girl."

Sandrew laughed; that was exactly what he was waiting for. He looked at the Dark Elf and asked, "Why is it impossible?"

"Because organs need to evolve and need to be compatible with Elemental Tide, Elves are the closest to Elemental Tide, so they can evolve Magic Organ more easily. But there won't be so many. With so many Magic Organ, they should have already surpassed the Title Magister." The Dark Elf said excitedly.

"Evolution? What era are we in that we still need evolution?" Sandrew made no attempt to hide his pride. "Gentlemen, it's time to open your eyes and see the New World. This ordinary Butterfly Girl has acquired 23 Magic Organ in just four months. Do you still think it was a mistake to bring this genius into our Shadow Society?"

"A genius? Who?" the Dark Elf asked.

Sandrew rose from his seat, stepped over the crowd to Li Ziran, put his arm around the man's shoulder, and solemnly said, "Now let me formally introduce him. Li Ziran is Witch Doctor, an expert in Organology. This Butterfly Girl is his masterpiece. Moreover, this set of organs is an essential part of Demon cultivation. He can accurately determine organ properties and transplant them perfectly. I believe his unique abilities and talent meet the Shadow Society's recruitment standards, so I have organized a private meeting and granted him special permission to join."

His gaze swept across everyone's faces as he added, "Ladies and gentlemen, what is now presented before you is a Butterfly Girl. Imagine if you possessed a set of such organs, or even more special organs, such as the brain of this Demon girl—what kind of changes would that bring us? I think with your abilities, you could probably obtain far more than just ordinary organs!"

After saying this, he slowly turned his gaze to Shadow Elder and said very solemnly, "Shadow Elder, this is the reason why I want to bring him into the Shadow Society."

The room fell silent, and everyone's attention was focused on Shadow Elder.

Shadow Elder remained silent, but he was inwardly horrified.

Sandrew is right. If he possessed the organs of the Undying Sovereign, then...

He didn't want to agree, but looking at the burning gazes around him, he immediately realized that if he said no now, Li Ziran would probably be completely wiped out after this meeting.

It's best to leave this person to him.

But thinking of Sandrew, and looking at the closed room before him, he could almost see the Bone Dragon floating in the Void Expanse.

He knew it was impossible to obtain.

Perhaps, drawing it into the Shadow Society make it easier to help oneself.

But he needs a pretext, or a more plausible reason, such as a question.

"Li Ziran, please tell me, how can one cause the greatest calamity to humanity?"
