--- Chapter 229 ---

Yu Long left the grandfather-grandson pair alone, glancing at Xiao Lingxi on the side. "Young Lady Xiao, why don't we leave the Earthly Dragon Enclave for a moment and get some fresh air?" He invited her out of politeness.

Xiao Lingxi gets what Yu Long means. She wasn't a dense person. 

She nodded at Yu Long before quietly following Yu Long. 

Outside the Earthly Dragon Enclave, Xiao Lingxi breathed in and out freely and said, "Haa... That's much better." 

"I felt like I was going to suffocate underground." 

"Haha, you will get used to it sooner or later." Yu Long chuckled while leaning on a tree.

"Of course, it would be different if you didn't want to enter this side of the world. Living a normal life isn't a bad choice, after all." 

"However, you must become a Profound Practitioner to live a 'normal' life without problems, Young Lady Xiao. This cruel cultivation world won't wait for mortals to catch up." 

Xiao Lingxi put on a weak smile, "I'm trying to. Yet my cultivation talent is not good. The saddest part is that I'm only at the 3rd level of Elementary Profound Realm, even after training for a year." 

"Xiao Che has long surpassed me by training for a few months."

Yu Long narrowed his eyes, "I don't think so, Young Lady Xiao."

"You have immense talent." 

Even though Xiao Lingxi has lost her inherent ability and power as the Ancestral God's Reincarnation, she still possesses the godly Ancestral Sacred Body.

Well, 5% of the Ancestral Sacred Body at the very minimum. Even then, no one should be more talented than Xiao Lingxi in this era. 

The problem lies within Xiao Lingxi's profound veins and her profound arts, which weren't compatible with most cultivation techniques in this era.

In fact, Yu Long has asked Shizu about this matter once. 

According to Shizu, Xiao Lingxi has the potential to reach the True God Realm and master the entry-stage Law of Nothingness but would never achieve them in her life unless Yu Long extended an olive branch to her by creating a tailored Profound Art.

Yes, Yu Long was the key to Xiao Lingxi's glory. 

"You don't think so? Haha, thank you for the encouragement." Xiao Lingxi blushed sheepishly. She still remembers the day Yu Long and her met at the Floating Cloud City.

'Why are you blushing? Aren't you supposed to be the final heroine?' Yu Long was stunned by Xiao Lingxi's blush. But then he reflected that the protagonist's status had fallen to his head instead.

Yu Long hurriedly checked the Karma Threads and sighed in relief as he hadn't made any connection with Xiao Lingxi. 

He gazed at Xiao Lingxi and said, "Young Lady Xiao. I can make you cultivate better, but you must promise something." 

"You can? Young Master Yu, I will do anything!" Xiao Lingxi was excited.

Yu Long smiled and patiently continued, "I need to draw a few drops of your blood and some hairs. After that, I will make a brand new Profound Art for you." 

"Does that sound good?" 

Xiao Lingxi's eyes widened, "B-Blood..." 

"What's the matter... Are you perhaps afraid?" 

"No. It's just that no one could make me bleed since I was little." 

"Well, I can. Wait, that sounds wrong for some reason."

Cough! Cough!

Yu Long cleared his throat and explained, "I know your body is special, but there is nothing to worry about. I need your consent, and it would be a quick process." 

"T-Then, please. Be gentle, Young Master Yu..." Xiao Lingxi bit her cherry lips. 

Yup, those words would definitely raise some brows.

Cough! Cough!

Yu Long coughed even more because Xiao Lingxi made it as if they were going to do something lewd. He shook his head wryly and quickly prickled Xiao Lingxi's finger while plucking her fine black hair. 

Sure enough, the small prick on Xiao Lingxi's finger recovered instantly. 

Yu Long placed her blood and hair inside separate force bubbles, storing them inside the Sky Poison Pearl. 

"Master." Yona suddenly appeared behind Yu Long.

Yu Long and Xiao Lingxi were startled. Of course, for two completely different reasons.

'Woah, since when did this lady stand there?' Xiao Lingxi was puzzled by Yona's appearance. 'I didn't notice her at all!' 

Meanwhile, Yu Long was amazed Yona could conceal her presence well enough until three meters away from his detection. She walked into his profound sense domain so casually. 

As if Yona completely erased her existence. 

Yona pursed her lips and said, "Master, you can draw my blood and get a handful of my hair if you want." 

Yu Long frowned slightly, "Oh, are you eavesdropping on us, Yona? That's not a very good thing to do." 

"I'm sorry, Master. Please, I also want to start cultivating." Yona bowed on the ground, disregarding that her robe would get dirtied by the soil and mud.

Yu Long's mouth twitched, "Okay, okay, get up." 

"I will make a Profound Art for you. Happy now?" 

Yona smiled widely, "Mm." 

'Whatever.' Yu Long felt this responsibility over Yona was heavier than expected.

Chu Yueli jumped out of the crack and shouted, "Master, it's time for lunch!" 

"Fu Zhong has prepared a feast for you. At the same time, they also have prepared the book record of Heavenly Demon Cult's activity over the past months." 

"Well, let's have lunch then." Yu Long nodded with a smile and returned to the Earthly Dragon Enclave again.

As Chu Yueli said, Fu Zhong prepared a festive feast for Yu Long and even threw in some specialties of the Illusory Demon Realm. He really wanted to impress Yu Long.

Yu Long didn't mind the feast and enjoyed it, frankly. 

He listened to Fu Zhong's more detailed report about the Illusory Demon Realm and nodded occasionally because the Heavenly Demon Realm was doing well without catching unnecessary attention.

However, a few points did make Yu Long frown slightly.

"You also found the Essence Spheres in the Illusory Demon Realm?" Yu Long repeated Fu Zhong's report.

Fu Zhong nodded, "The natives of Illusory Demon Realm called it the Demonic Cores." 

"We found the Demonic Cores appearing from sixteen years ago, making the profound beasts mutate into ferocious creatures..." 

"The Heavenly Demon Cult has taken several missions to slaughter the mutated profound beasts and find them much more challenging than they should be." 

"In less than two decades, the mutated profound beasts also have given birth to powerful Demonic Beasts at the Sovereign Profound Realm, and people called them Ten Heavenly Kings." 

"Although the Ten Heavenly Kings haven't made any moves and stayed in their domains because of the Little Demon Empress's deterrent force, I assume they planned to do something big soon from my observation." 

"Ten Heavenly Kings. They sure like to brag with such names." Yu Long chuckled slightly. 

"Fu Zhong, you mentioned several missions earlier. Do you use the mercenary system in the Heavenly Demon Cult?" 

Fu Zong put on an innocent look, "Lord Shadow, the Heavenly Demon Cult also has to earn a living, or else we wouldn't be able to feed one million members." 

"When the Heavenly Demon Cult's disciples go out, they will become mercenaries and help people with money as payment. Trust me, everything is as legal as it can be." 

"This method is also good for disciples to gain experience." 

"We are training warriors, after all. Not a bunch of dolls." 

Yu Long smirked playfully, "Don't panic like that, Fu Zhong. I'm not mad or anything." 

"Haha..." Fu Zhong chuckled weakly, breaking a cold sweat. He hoped Yu Long was really teasing him and not serious at all. 

Yu Long shook his head, "That's all?" 

"Yes, that's all so far. What are we going to do next, Lord Shadow?" 

"What else? Gather more of Illusory Demon Realm's natural resources and see if we could use them. Don't think about conquering this continent first because I made a promise with a representative." 

"Representative? That guy named Yun Canghai?" Fu Zhong was speechless.

"Yup." Yu Long nodded.

"By the way, he's here." 

"Damn it, Yu Long!" Yun Canghai entered the dining hall with a swagger.

"How dare you have a feast without me!" 

Behind Yun Canghai is Yun Che, who looks around the Earthly Dragon Enclave with a curious-looking gaze.

Yu Long shrugged, "You're busy. I also didn't have time to see you crying while hugging your grandson." 

Cough!

'This bastard!' Yun Canghai choked on air. 

The Demon King sighed and said, "Yun Che has something to say to you." 

"Oh?" Yu Long glanced at Yun Che.

"Yes." Yun Che felt everyone's gaze and nervously stepped toward Yu Long. 

"What do you want, Yun Che?" 

Yun Che scratched his cheek and replied, "I have a request."

"It might be shameless, considering we don't know much about each other." 

"My memory about you so far only spans when you went to the Xia Mansion and trained Yuanba."

"Yuanba would call you boss every day and tell me how awesome you are. I was jealous, but then I realized the gap between you and me."

"Yu Long, you're an amazing guy. I respect you." 

"So, please… Please teach me how to get stronger!" Yun Che bowed with a perfect 90-degree angle.

"NO, PLEASE TAKE ME AS YOUR LACKEY!"

'Well, well, well...' Yu Long thought amusingly.

'Even the protagonist wants to be my lackey.'
