“It’s great that you can figure it out. I hope you’ll be mentally prepared for what I’m about to say.” The Sky-Smiting Devil Emperor stared at Yun Che, a subtle yet unconcealable struggle emerging on his face.
She slowly turned, her back to Yun Che, not wanting him to see the complex emotions swirling in her eyes. Even the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor, who had always held a high position and weathered countless storms, couldn't help but feel nervous at this moment. After all, what she was about to say would undoubtedly be a heavy shackle for Yun Che for the rest of his life, and it was extremely unfair to him.
A subtle glint of unease flashed across Yun Che's eyes. His intuition told him that the Evil Infant's reincarnation must be inextricably linked to him.
“Senior, please feel free to speak.” Yun Che pursed his lips, trying hard to make his voice sound normal. He had already mentally prepared himself to face the unknown.
"The Evil Infant originated from the extremely yin land of the Chaos World. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to seal her, let alone allow her to reincarnate." The Heaven-Smiting Devil Emperor looked up at the sky, his eyes deep, as if he had traveled through time and space, back to the distant past. He continued slowly, "But I have the source of extremely yin blood flowing in my body. Back then, it was my original devil blood that was used to seal the Evil Infant."
"Now that the Evil Infant's spirit has completely subsided, I can use my demonic blood as a guide to allow her to conceive anew and be reborn into another woman, completing her reincarnation cycle."
The Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor slowly turned around, a complex expression on his face. When she had left behind the legacy of Eternal Darkness, she had also bestowed upon him three drops of his Origin Devil Blood. Back then, she hadn't anticipated that this backup plan would now become the key to completely resolving the Evil Infant's scourge.
“Senior, you’re trying to say that this woman is very special and needs to cultivate dark profound energy, and that she can bear the power of the Evil Infant, right?” Yun Che keenly grasped this meaning from the eyes of the Sky Smiting Devil Emperor.
"That's right, but there's more to it than that. She must also practice the same magic skills as me and possess the same demonic blood as me. And in this world, only one person meets these conditions."
The last time the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor descended upon her, she had specifically asked Yun Che about the whereabouts of the other drop of Devil Emperor's blood. In fact, she had harbored this thought since then. At that time, she had even paid special attention to Qianye Ying'er, a flicker of pity in her eyes, though no one had noticed.
“Could it be…” Yun Che’s pupils shrank sharply in an instant. He already understood who the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor was referring to.
"Indeed, it's the person who practiced magic with you back then, now the Brahma Emperor Goddess Qianye Ying'er." The Heaven-Smiting Devil Emperor finally uttered the name bitterly.
“How could this be… This means… the Evil Infant will become my… daughter?” Yun Che felt his head buzz, and his entire body stumbled. It was as if his soul had instantly left his body, and he almost fell to the ground.
Such an outcome was truly difficult for him to accept. It was almost like using his own child's life to carry the reincarnation of the Evil Infant.
"Indeed, this is the only way, and the most thorough one." The Heaven-Smiting Devil Emperor forced himself to control his emotions, a cold expression gradually appearing on his face. "Although this is extremely unfair to you, since you have become the emperor of this world, you must bear the consequences of this."
Yun Che's legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground. At that moment, he seemed to hear his own heart breaking. He had finally come to terms with letting the Evil Infant grow up in love and warmth, but no matter what, he could never accept the Evil Infant replacing his own child.
“What karma… what destruction of the world… I don’t want to care about any of that! She is the Evil Infant that I hate the most, and now she wants to use my child’s life to allow her to reincarnate and be reborn. How can I possibly do that?” Yun Che roared, almost at the top of his lungs.
He had been able to endure everything that had happened before, but this was the only thing he couldn't accept no matter what.
“No, you misunderstood.” The Sky-Smiting Devil Emperor looked at the nearly collapsed Yun Che, shook his head helplessly and sighed. She knew that Yun Che had misunderstood.
“Originally, I thought that the Evil Infant would require you to spend your entire life bound to it, so I felt it was unfair to you. I never expected that this was what you were entangled with. Calm down first and listen to me.” The Sky-Smiting Devil Emperor lightly tapped his fingers, releasing a wisp of dark profound energy to steady Yun Che’s heart and soul.
“You can rest assured about this. Your child will not change in any way, nor will she be replaced by the Evil Infant. She will only possess the Evil Infant’s power, nothing more. I swear to you in the name of the Devil Emperor that every word I just said is true.” The Heaven-Smiting Devil Emperor spoke to Yun Che with great seriousness, even going so far as to use his own name as the Devil Emperor to prove to Yun Che that his words were true.
"This can be considered as a form of compensation for you and Qianye Ying'er. Your child will have limitless possibilities in the future and an endless life." At this point, even the Heaven-Smiting Devil Emperor couldn't help but reveal a hint of envy. "As long as you can treat your child well, she will become the most reliable guardian of the entire Chaos World."
Yun Che slowly raised his eyes. After hearing the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor's words, his heart finally calmed down a bit. Now that he and Qianye Ying'er's child was about to be born, if it was truly replaced by the Evil Infant, Yun Che would live his whole life in anxiety and self-blame.
“Since Senior has said so, then I no longer have any doubts. I am naturally willing to spend my entire life loving, protecting, and cherishing Qianying and my child. So this is not a burden to me, but my responsibility as a father.” Yun Che replied seriously.
Since the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor dared to swear in his own name, Yun Che naturally believed that she would not deceive him.
“Yun Che!”
As the aftermath of the battle gradually dissipated, Qianye Ying'er was the first to arrive. She had arrived early because she had sensed the call of the dark profound energy within her body.
