Xie Qi was speechless. Where did this original owner come from? How could he be the son of the Demon Lord?
Xie Qi: "You must be seeing things."
Ye Chuan replied with confidence: "Although I am just a casual cultivator, I am still very confident in distinguishing the demons."
Xie Qi: "Since you have recognized my identity, why don't you kill me? After all, I am very likely the murderer who massacred the village. Even if I just saved your life, as a cultivator, you should not be so indecisive."
Ye Chuan frowned slightly after hearing Xie Qi's words and explained, "Not all demons and monsters are vicious and evil. I only kill those evil monsters who have committed many evil deeds. As for you, I think I should have guessed your true identity."
Xie Qi was shocked when he heard this. He himself knew nothing about this identity, but he didn't expect Ye Chuan to know it. So he quickly asked, "What is my identity?"
Ye Chuan: "Twenty years ago, the Demon Lord snatched the Princess of Yao Kingdom back to the Demon Realm. Later, the princess gave birth to the Demon Lord's child in the Demon Realm. That child was completely different from other demon children. Other demon children looked very similar to the Demon Lord, with demon horns on their heads and their appearance was completely different from humans. However, the child born by the princess was a human with the Demon Lord's blood. The Demon Lord did not like this child, so he locked him up in the Demon Realm cave."
Ye Chuan said, looking at Xie Qi and continued, "The Demon Lord's children all have the Demon Lord's mark on their foreheads. This mark is completely different from the marks of demon cultivators, and your mark is exactly the same as those demon children. And it's obvious that the village was destroyed by a group of demons. Judging from the way you are not welcomed in the demon world, it is unlikely that you ordered them to do it. So there is only one possibility, that you escaped from their clutches."
Xie Qi felt a little weird listening to his long speech. He felt that the other party was like an NPC. Once the plot was triggered, the NPC would just tell him the whole story.
But the other party had made it clear, so there was no need for him to test it, so Xie Qi followed his words and said, "You are right. I couldn't eat or sleep well in the Demon Realm. I didn't know that I would die that day. I finally escaped. It's not that I don't want to tell you the truth, I'm just afraid of being killed by you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chuan said, "Don't worry, I don't discriminate against demons. As long as you're a good person, you'll be fine. But you just killed a few monsters and the demonic energy on your body is exposed. What are your plans for the future?"
Xie Qi: "Can't I go to Tianxuan Sect?"
Ye Chuan: "It's not impossible. Apart from the demonic energy in your body, you are no different from humans. As long as you seal the demonic energy in your body, you can sneak into the Tianxuan Sect."
Xie Qi looked at Ye Chuan with suspicion, his heart full of questions. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "The Tianxuan Sect should be a reputable and upright sect. Is it really okay for me to sneak in like this? And aren't you going to ascend to become an immortal? Why are you helping me hide my identity?"
Ye Chuan looked at Xie Qi's suspicious look and explained, "Because I am the fourth prince of Yao Kingdom, and your mother is my aunt. You should call me cousin."
Xie Qi was surprised to hear this, and his doubts were somewhat alleviated. However, he still asked with some concern, "Are you really the prince? Then why did you go to the Tianxuan Sect alone? According to common sense, shouldn't there be many people escorting you?"
Ye Chuan sighed helplessly and replied with a wry smile, "Alas, my father didn't want me to cultivate immortality, so I ran away secretly without telling him."
After Ye Chuan finished speaking, he looked into Xie Qi's eyes and continued, "Do you know the Wuqing Immortal Venerable of the Tianxuan Sect? He was the master of the fallen Divine Lord. Since the Divine Lord's death, he has been in seclusion. But some time ago, people said that he had come out of seclusion. He will also be present at the Tianxuan Sect entrance examination this time. If you can become his disciple, there will definitely be a way to remove the evil spirit in you."
Xie Qi: "Then I'll go to Tianxuan Sect with you."
Although Xie Qi knew nothing about the current situation, he firmly believed that the Tianxuan Sect must be hiding the answers he was looking for, and it was very likely that the male protagonist would be among them.
After listening to Xie Qi's words, Ye Chuan nodded and reminded him, "By the way, there is a barrier at the foot of Tianxuan Sect's mountain, which is specially used to resist the invasion of demons. If you plan to enter the mountain to take the entrance test, you must first try to hide the demonic energy in you."
Xie Qi frowned slightly when he heard this and asked doubtfully, "Hide the demonic energy?"
Ye Chuan seemed to have anticipated this. He quickly rummaged through his storage bag, muttering, "Wait a moment. I accidentally got a magic weapon before that should be able to help you cover up the evil spirit."
As he spoke, he took out a golden bracelet from his storage bag and handed it to Xie Qi: "This Demon Suppression Ring is a high-level magical tool. It can change its form and suppress demonic energy. If you carry it with you, you won't be afraid of being exposed. Once we enter the Tianxuan Sect, we will work together to find a way to remove the demonic energy from your body."
Xie Qi took the Demon Suppression Ring with doubt, and it changed into a different shape after being touched by Xie Qi. He hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to wear this strange bracelet on his wrist.
The moment Xie Qi put on the Demon-Suppressing Ring, a cool feeling spread along his arm throughout his body, and the demonic pattern that had originally appeared on his forehead disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Seeing this, Ye Chuan quickly took out a mirror and handed it to Xie Qi, saying, "Look, your magic pattern has really disappeared! This magic weapon is truly magical!"
Xie Qi: "Thank you."
Ye Chuan: "It's okay, now that the problem has been solved, let's go to sleep first and continue our journey tomorrow."
Xie Qi: “…Okay.”
Xie Qi looked at Ye Chuan who closed his eyes, and still felt very strange. He felt that Ye Chuan's ability to accept was too strong. How could he accept him so quickly as the son of the Demon Lord who had snatched his aunt back to the Demon Realm?
After all, his aunt was killed by the Demon Lord, and as the Demon Lord's child, he was not expected by everyone. Even the princess might not be willing to give birth to him. He would only be a shame to the princess. Logically, the princess's family would hate him even more.
However, at this moment, Ye Chuan, who was lying on the ground, suddenly said, "Don't worry. Although I hate the Demon Lord for killing my aunt, you are innocent, and you cannot choose your own birth. As long as you do good deeds and accumulate virtue in the future, I will not hate you."
Xie Qi: "? How do you know what I'm thinking?"
Ye Chuan: "Ha, you really thought about it in your heart. I just saw that you were staring at me without sleeping, so I guessed what you were thinking."
Xie Qi: "Oh."
Ye Chuan: "Go to sleep quickly, we have to continue our journey tomorrow."
Xie Qi: "Okay."
Then Xie Qi also leaned against the stone and closed his eyes.
