Chapter 272

"It succeeded?"

"It succeeded?..."

Looking at the mosquito woman born in the center, both Lin Jing and Senior Sister Xu Qingyao were stunned for a long time.

They had already prepared for the failure of the transformation, but they didn't expect that the situation would take a turn for the better in the end.

"Hahahaha, Father, Mother, I succeeded!" The Senior Sister's heart rate accelerated, and her face turned red—not because the mosquito woman wasn't wearing anything, but because of the joy of finally having made definite progress after working so hard to revive the demon race for so long!

Not long after, Mother Crane would be able to transform into a human form.

She just wanted to get close to the mosquito woman, but the next second, Lin Jing's expression suddenly changed. He reached out to stop her and said, "Wait, something's wrong."

At this very moment, this mosquito woman, who had just gained intelligence, recalled some bad memories.

This kind of memory was not unique to her.

After evolving into the demon race, she finally broke the bloodline limitations of the mosquito beast clan, and her cultivation reached the Foundation Establishment stage from the Qi Refining stage, which mosquito beasts could never break through.

At the same time, it was as if she had become the queen of the mosquito swarm, and she had a deeper bloodline connection with countless mosquitoes. This master-like bloodline connection allowed her to see many bloodline memories.

There were terrifying black hands descending from the sky, feeding on the flesh and blood of the mosquito clan.

And the owner of the black hands...

At the moment, because Lin Jing and Long Li were in a fusion state, and Long Li had grown up eating mosquito beasts, the mosquito woman, with her keen perception, felt uneasy in an instant, causing her to have a strong stress response.

Buzz buzz buzz buzz...

Under her resistance, this billion-strong mosquito army instantly broke free from the control of Lin Jing's Ten Thousand Beasts Ring and obeyed the mosquito woman's orders.

Subsequently, there was a tendency to launch an attack on Lin Jing.

"He... flesh and blood..." the mosquito woman said with difficulty. Countless mosquito swarms flew up, revealing sharp mouthparts, causing Lin Jing to retreat slightly.

"What's going on??" Senior Sister Xu Qingyao saw that the mosquito swarm seemed to be rebelling and breaking away from Lin Jing's control, and she couldn't help but feel her scalp go numb. Even she definitely couldn't beat this billion-strong mosquito swarm; it would certainly require those Demon Emperor-level guardians to take action.

"I'm also very innocent." Lin Jing shed his Three Heads and Six Arms fusion state. Isn't it just that he always used mosquito beasts to feed the fish before??

He estimated that it was eight or nine times out of ten that this was the case, plus... his own flesh and blood had an extremely strong attraction to the mosquito woman.

After evolving into the demon race, whether it was the excavation of bloodline memories or the perception of blood, the mosquito woman seemed to have reached an extreme.

"Call for help, stop them." Lin Jing shouted.

Just as the mosquito woman led the mosquito army and was about to take action, and Xu Qingyao and Lin Jing intended to call for help, suddenly, the time of the entire valley seemed to stand still.

The mosquito swarm, which had been extremely restless and full of ferocity just a moment ago, immediately all stopped in place as if they were sluggish, no longer moving.

A pair of azure demon pupils slowly opened in the void, watching this place.

In an instant, the mosquito woman was sweating profusely. Having just gained intelligence, her wisdom at this time was only equivalent to that of a human child, and all her actions were more inclined to follow her bloodline instincts.

If it could be said that when facing Lin Jing, the bloodline instinct she produced was fear and resistance, then now, when facing these eyes, there were only thoughts of submission and obedience.

"Your Majesty the Demon Emperor!!!" Xu Qingyao said in surprise, recognizing the owner of the eyes. The Demon Emperor had actually come out of seclusion.

Moreover, at the very moment the first demon race was born, she had instantly descended to this place.

"Demon Emperor???" Lin Jing, upon hearing this, also felt his heart tremble as he looked at those eyes.

Sure enough, the next moment, a majestic female voice came from the void.

"Xu Qingyao, you have done very well."

"Your Majesty is too kind... it was all..."

"The main credit belongs to this Longevity Body from the Beast Taming Sect, right..." The voice slowly came out again.

"Longevity Body, contracted with two precious beasts, the Ice Soul Gu... that's right, as fellow inheritors of immortal arts, I should have understood long ago that only immortal arts can break the Heavenly Dao rules established by the ancient Xiangong."

"However, precious beasts are rare, and not every immortal art can break the rules. It seems they have inherited extraordinary divine abilities. The owner of the divine abilities might be at least an 'Immortal Monarch'-level existence."

The Demon Emperor saw through all of Lin Jing's background at a glance. Lin Jing was not surprised by this at all; after all, she was one of the top experts standing at the peak of the lower world. It was just that this "fellow inheritor of immortal arts"... that was what surprised Lin Jing.

He understood the meaning of this "inheritor of immortal arts."

Precious beast divine abilities were also known as the rudimentary forms of immortal arts, so, it turned out the Demon Emperor was also of precious beast bloodline...

It was said that the Demon Emperor came from the Divine Tiger Clan among the ancient demon race.

The Divine Tiger Clan was a major demon clan, second only to the Dragon, Phoenix, and Fire Qilin clans. As the core combat clan of the demon race, the Divine Tiger Clan suffered the most severe damage in the Xiangong War.

Other demon races were only cursed and could not transform, but the Divine Tiger Clan was even worse; even their bloodline was difficult to inherit, changing from a major clan to a single-line inheritance.

The current Demon Emperor was the only bloodline of the Divine Tiger Clan.

The Dragon, Phoenix, Fire Qilin, and other demon beast races still existed, yet the sole survivor of the Divine Tiger Clan became the master of the Demon Court. There was indeed a deep reason behind it.

The precious beast bloodline was this powerful.

"Your Majesty." Lin Jing also bowed slightly. At this time, he wasn't very worried about his identity being seen through, because he had already demonstrated his value.

This value was his greatest amulet.

"Can you give me a portion of the items that helped her transform?" the Demon Emperor asked.

"Of course." Lin Jing immediately took out a synthetic Transformation Grass.

The next instant, the Transformation Grass escaped into the void.

The Demon Emperor continued: "The restrictions on the Transformation Grass have been partially lifted, but the power of transformation has weakened a lot because of this. It can only be effective for demon beasts below the Demon Core stage, and it will even attract the sanctions of the Heavenly Dao rules... This is the reason why you chose the mosquito beast as the target for transformation..."

"It seems that if we want the demon race to revive, this is just the beginning."

"Yes, Your Majesty. However, give me some time, and I will definitely be able to research a Transformation Elixir that can be applied to any level." Lin Jing made a guarantee, realizing that this was the best opportunity to bind himself to the Demon Court.

"Hmm, from today on, I appoint you as the Holy Son of the Demon Court, the only Holy Son. Your status is above the three Holy Maidens. From now on, the three Holy Maidens will all obey your orders." The Demon Emperor gave the order, which left the Senior Sister beside him stunned.

"No, now it's the four Holy Maidens. Although her intelligence has just formed, as the first demon race of the later generations, it is of extraordinary significance." A divine light burst from the void and fell on the mosquito woman. The strength of this demon woman, who was lowering her head, was immediately strengthened to the Imperial level.

"The Holy Son is not your enemy; on the contrary, he has the 'grace of remaking' you. From now on, obey the Holy Son's orders and stay by his side as a maid."

"Hmm hmm hmm hmm..." The mosquito woman nodded. At this moment, her intelligence had evolved, suppressing her instincts, and she looked respectfully at the Demon Emperor's eyes and Lin Jing, who had just become the Holy Son.

What about me, what about me, what about me, what about me...

Seeing that even a mosquito had become a Holy Maiden, Xu Qingyao also couldn't forget about becoming the Demon Emperor's personal disciple.

"As for the Third Holy Maiden, Xu Qingyao, when I completely come out of seclusion, I will accept you as my personal disciple."

"However, you don't need to make these things public for the time being. We will discuss them after I completely come out of seclusion. Holy Son, having found the method of transformation, what reward do you need?"

"I allow you to propose three wishes unrelated to researching the Dao of Transformation. However, once you propose the wishes, from today on, you will never be able to betray the Demon Court."
