Chapter 206

No matter what, the Fallen God Child had to make a move.

If he didn't, his Dao heart would be tarnished and develop cracks.

Moreover, Jun Xiaoyao had spoken with such extreme contempt.

If he didn't step out to meet the challenge, wouldn't he be ridiculed by other prodigies of the Immortal Realm?

Therefore, this battle had been destined from the moment Jun Xiaoyao decided to intervene.

In less than a day, news that the Fallen God Child intended to fight Jun Xiaoyao had already spread.

It was being frantically passed around in all directions.

Many prodigies of the Immortal Realm were shaken.

The Jun Clan's Divine Son!

The Fallen God Child!

Both of these individuals were renowned.

In terms of status, both were successors of immortal forces.

In terms of strength, both were the best of their generation, standing at the peak.

If these two were to fight, that would be a true clash of titans, a needle against a wheat awn—very much worth watching!

Even the cultivators of the Senluo Continent were extremely interested, listening for any sign of movement; once there was news, they would all gather there.

Great battles between prodigies of the Immortal Realm were rare to begin with.

Let alone a battle between young supremes of the Immortal Realm.

Jun Xiaoyao also learned the news that the Fallen God Child had accepted the challenge.

But he did not care.

At this moment, the group from the War Demon Hall was temporarily staying in a mountain range.

Jun Xiaoyao directly had the War Demon Hall Master call Yan Qingying over.

Yan Qingying was dressed in a black dress, her figure slender, her appearance very beautiful and moving.

Her eyes were covered by a black silk ribbon, which, instead of diminishing her beauty, added a touch of mysterious temperament.

Gu Yuan and the others were somewhat confused, not understanding why Jun Xiaoyao had called Yan Qingying over.

Jun Xiaoyao looked Yan Qingying over and spoke very bluntly: "Should I call you Yan Qingying, or should I call you... the successor of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art?"

The sentence caused everyone present to change color.

The War Demon Hall Master couldn't help but say, "Young Master, have you made a mistake? The successor of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art is her brother, Yan Fei."

The people of the War Demon Hall were all somewhat confused.

Jun Xiaoyao did not explain; he only looked at Yan Qingying.

Yan Qingying took a deep breath, then opened her lips and said, "That's right, I am the successor of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art."

"This..." The War Demon Hall Master and the others were stunned.

They hadn't expected Jun Xiaoyao's words to be true.

But even they hadn't noticed anything unusual about Yan Qingying; how did Jun Xiaoyao know?

Naturally, they didn't know that Jun Xiaoyao's spiritual sense perception far exceeded that of ordinary people.

He had understood the moment he first saw Yan Qingying.

Yan Qingying also revealed the matter directly.

The inheritance of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art was indeed Yan Qingying's destiny.

She was actually the true Son—or rather, Daughter—of Heaven-Defiance of the Senluo Continent.

As for why Yan Fei could also manifest a portion of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art's power,

that was because Yan Qingying had originally wanted to give the opportunity of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art to her brother.

But in the end, the opportunity chose Yan Qingying.

However, Yan Fei had also learned a small portion of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art.

Yan Fei seemed to have anticipated that someone might eventually target the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art.

To keep Yan Qingying from danger, Yan Fei instructed her never to expose the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art casually.

She couldn't even tell the others in the War Demon Hall.

To divert attention and keep Yan Qingying safe,

Yan Fei decided to simply make himself out to be the successor of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art.

That way, no one would focus their attention on Yan Qingying.

This plan had indeed succeeded.

Yan Fei became the successor of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art in the eyes of the world.

It could be said that without Yan Fei's sacrifice, it would not have been a simple matter for Yan Qingying to have lived safely until now.

When speaking of these things, Yan Qingying gripped her jade hands tightly, her slender body trembling uncontrollably.

Her brother had died to protect her.

After the truth came to light, the War Demon Hall Master and the others also had complex expressions.

Jun Xiaoyao's expression was indifferent.

The world was never short of such moving stories; he, however, was not particularly touched.

"You aren't actually blind, are you?" Jun Xiaoyao said.

Yan Qingying raised her hand and untied the black silk ribbon covering her eyes.

Instantly, a pair of beautiful eyes as black as ink appeared.

However, those beautiful eyes were as deep and dark as a black hole, radiating a chilling, dark devilish intent.

"From the moment I obtained the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art, my eyes had already recovered. It was only because the devil art affected them, making them special, that my brother had me continue to cover them," Yan Qingying said.

Jun Xiaoyao nodded; this Yan Fei had certainly been thoughtful for his sister.

"So, Young Master, do you want me to hand over the inheritance of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art?" Yan Qingying looked straight at Jun Xiaoyao.

Logically, she shouldn't have had the courage to even question Jun Xiaoyao.

But the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art had subtly changed Yan Qingying's personality.

Her personality was gradually leaning toward darkness, coldness, and dominance.

This also explained why, after Yan Fei died, Yan Qingying had only been sad for a moment and then never shed another tear.

Yan Qingying was gradually moving toward the identity of a female overlord.

Her words, however, caused the expressions of the War Demon Hall Master and the others to change abruptly.

"Yan Qingying, how are you speaking to the Young Master?" the War Demon Hall Master scolded coldly.

Jun Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows slightly, not caring.

He had vaguely guessed that the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art might have slightly influenced Yan Qingying's personality.

After all, that Heaven-Swallowing Devil Ancestor was an extremely fierce and domineering figure.

How could his successor be a woman with a weak personality?

"This Divine Son is indeed interested in your Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art. Hand it over," Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.

He didn't hide anything either.

At this time, being evasive would only be hypocritical.

Jun Xiaoyao simply wanted the inheritance of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art.

"Young Master is the savior of Qingying and the War Demon Hall, so of course you can. However, Qingying has one small condition: I want that Fallen God Child to die!" Yan Qingying said, her killing intent fully exposed.

"Hmm? What is your status, that you dare to set conditions for the Young Master?" Yi Yu frowned.

What was Jun Xiaoyao's status?

And what was Yan Qingying's status?

Even if she was a Daughter of Heaven-Defiance and the successor of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art, she was still as humble as an ant in front of Jun Xiaoyao.

What qualification did she have to set conditions?

"Yan Qingying, you are too presumptuous!" The War Demon Hall Master and the others also hurriedly scolded.

They didn't want to see Yan Qingying provoke Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly.

This Yan Qingying's personality was indeed quite different from other women.

"To tell you the truth, if this Divine Son truly wanted it, let alone the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art, even the World Origin within your body would be within my reach," Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.

His words finally caused Yan Qingying's expression to change.

She hadn't expected that Jun Xiaoyao had not only seen through her identity as the successor of the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art,

but had even discovered the World Origin hidden deep within her body.

This World Origin had been discovered by Yan Qingying along with the Heaven-Swallowing Devil Art inheritance; only she and her brother knew about it.

Yan Qingying felt as if she were completely exposed in front of Jun Xiaoyao, as if she were stark naked.

"However... this Divine Son can grant you a favor, but at the same time, this Divine Son also has a condition for you," Jun Xiaoyao said, changing the subject.

"What condition?" Yan Qingying replied immediately.

As long as she could make the Fallen God Child die, she could pay any price.

"Submit to this Divine Son, for all eternity!"
