Chapter 2692

Bringing up this topic, Bai Xian'er fell into silence, a look appearing on her face that Ye Changqing had never seen before.

After getting to know Bai Xian'er slowly, Ye Changqing had gradually come to understand her personality.

How should he put it? Bai Xian'er's personality was exactly the same as her appearance—mischievous and eccentric.

When she smiled, those two little tiger teeth were even more eye-catching.

Based on her appearance alone, one could never tell that Bai Xian'er was an Emperor Realm powerhouse.

One rarely saw Bai Xian'er being silent or preoccupied, let alone with this complex expression now.

Although Ye Changqing was curious, he did not press for answers; this was someone else's secret, and if she didn't want to say, Ye Changqing wouldn't force her to reveal it.

He took a sip of tea; this Enlightenment Tea was quite good, given to him by Yun Xiantai, and it was said to have been purchased in another world previously.

Just as Ye Changqing intended to get up and leave, Bai Xian'er suddenly spoke up.

"Actually... I have lived in the Demon World since I can remember."

Huh???

Hearing this, Ye Changqing turned to look at her; lived in the Demon World since childhood? But Bai Xian'er is not a member of the Demon Clan.

Not caring about Ye Changqing's gaze, Bai Xian'er continued:

"My parents were slaves of the Demon Clan; I don't know when they were taken to the Demon World, and I was born in the Demon World."

"And because my parents were slaves, and I, as the daughter of slaves, naturally became a slave as well."

"The place where our family lived was a spiritual vein in the Demon World, and our family was responsible for helping the Demon Clan mine spiritual ores."

The Demon Clan naturally also uses spiritual stones for cultivation, but because of the Demon Clan's innate bloodline, once spiritual energy enters their bodies, it is directly converted into demonic power.

Bai Xian'er slowly recounted her past; she had never told anyone about these things.

Even when she was at the Medicine King Pavilion, she hadn't mentioned a word; Yao Yunfeng and Feng Ming didn't know either.

Having lived in the Demon World since she was small, Bai Xian'er's childhood could be described as having suffered every hardship.

When others were still ignorant and naive, Bai Xian'er already had to endure complex labor.

At that time, she was young and couldn't enter the spiritual vein, but the Demon Clan didn't care about that and arranged for her to do other things.

Moreover, beatings and scoldings were common occurrences.

She still remembered several times when she was almost beaten to death by the Demon Clan.

Her parents felt sorry for her and were also covered in injuries from being beaten by the Demon Clan.

Later, as she grew older, Bai Xian'er's parents secretly began to teach her cultivation, and it seemed that from that time on, they were planning something.

At first, Bai Xian'er didn't know, but later, she understood that her parents were trying to enable her to escape the Demon World.

They had already given up hope, but Bai Xian'er's life had just begun; they couldn't imagine what it would be like if their daughter spent her whole life in the Demon World.

So no matter the cost, they had to send Bai Xian'er away, letting her break free from this cage that had imprisoned her since birth.

Later, her parents succeeded; Bai Xian'er and another sister successfully escaped the Demon World with their parents' help.

Right under the noses of the Demon Clan, her father had actually inscribed a teleportation array, and through this array, they successfully sent them out of the Demon World.

Bai Xian'er's parents were not ordinary people either; they were both Great Saint powerhouses, and their cultivation had both reached the Great Saint Perfect Completion.

Moreover, her father was also an array master.

To let Bai Xian'er leave, her parents paid the price with their lives.

On the night before she left, Bai Xian'er clearly remembered her mother earnestly instructing her on many things.

There were also the cultivation techniques and martial arts passed on to her, urging Bai Xian'er to cultivate well and not be lazy.

Finally, her mother told Bai Xian'er repeatedly to live well.

After escaping the Demon World, Bai Xian'er was sent into the Endless Star Sea by the teleportation array.

Two little girls with almost no cultivation, finding themselves in the Endless Star Sea—the result was imaginable; it was absolutely a situation of ten deaths and no life.

"But perhaps we were quite lucky; we were soon saved by a group of people passing by."

"This group of people brought my sister and me to the Black Cloud World."

"At first, I was full of curiosity about everything, and I could eat my fill every day; at that time, I felt truly happy."

"But later, they began to teach us cultivation and teach us to fight."

"They made the same batch of children kill each other, just to make us cold-blooded and ruthless."

"Later, it was completing various missions and assassinating all kinds of people."

"At that time, as I grew older and my cultivation increased, I gradually realized that I seemed to have entered another cage from one cage."

"I had escaped the Demon World, but I was tightly controlled by them again."

"To this day, I still remember the phrase I heard most often back then: that I had to become the sharpest sword."

"My father and mother clearly wanted me to live well and be free, but the reality seemed to be different."

"So, during one mission, I ran away."

But how could the other side easily let go of a killer they had cultivated with such difficulty?

So after running away, Bai Xian'er was subjected to their frantic pursuit.

Those former companions, people she had once known, all became the people hunting her down.

They used every possible means, exhausting all methods, just to kill Bai Xian'er.

Fleeing all the way, Bai Xian'er couldn't even remember how long she had been fleeing during that time or how many worlds she had fled through.

How many life-and-death crises she had encountered, and how she had persisted step by step.

She only knew that it seemed like every time she opened her eyes, she was standing on the edge of life and death, never knowing when she would encounter the pursuit of her former companions.

Bai Xian'er ran and fought all the way, but it was precisely because of this experience that Bai Xian'er's cultivation and combat power improved rapidly.
