Liu Feng couldn't help but raise his head to look at his own father.

Liu Chuanshang, however, fell into a long silence, his eyes flickering with complex emotions. After a long while, he sighed softly and said, "Our Liu Family... in the Demon Clan, was once incomparably glorious, but has long since turned into fleeting clouds. The Liu Family was once the most splendid and prosperous family in the Demon Clan. Our ancestor, he was fantastically brilliant, unmatched in the world, born humble, with ordinary talent. Rising from the thorns, he climbed upwards. Defeating numerous enemies, he eventually became a great Demon King. Unfortunately, later on, our ancestor failed to break through to the Saint Realm and died. It was 1,300,000 years after our ancestor's fall before the Demon Clan saw the second Quasi-Saint realm Demon King. He is your maternal grandfather. Your mother's father."

"Then, why was mother hunted down? Could it be that Grandfather also..." A look of worry flashed through Liu Feng's eyes.

This is human nature! Not demonic nature. Such conceptions of kinship, in the Demon Clan, are actually despised. Even the demonesses of the Demon Clan would not possess these feelings of kinship.

"The true nature of the Demon Clan is selfishness and indifference," Liu Chuanshang looked at his son, suddenly feeling a trace of emotion in his heart. After all, his son had grown up among the Human Clan; although his blood was still that of the pure Demon Clan, his personality had already undergone earth-shattering changes. In fact, wasn't it the same for himself?

"Therefore, do not think that because the great Demon King is your grandfather, you can be affectionate with him. Don't even think about it. The one who hunted down your mother was him," Liu Chuanshang said.

Liu Yun and Liu Feng, the siblings, were stunned again.

Liu Chuanshang continued, "Since the rise of the new generation of the great Demon King, our Liu Family has completely left the Demon World. At that time, it was still the era of the Yanhuang domain in the Heavenly Realm. There was no hatred towards the Demon Clan. Added to that, our ancestors kept a low profile when they arrived, opening a small pharmacy, passed down through generations. Starting from scratch, we never drew too much attention. By the time Lingdan Hall emerged, our Liu Family had already cleared our identity. Although we are pure Demon Clan, no one knew about it. Even the old master of the Chu Family, he had no idea about the true identity of the Liu Family."

Liu Chuanshang seemed somewhat proud as he said this, "Over ten thousand years ago, your mother used one of the top dharma instruments of the Demon World, tore open a crack in the void, and forcibly entered here. That top dharma instrument, hmm, it is said to have been a holy artifact, and it was destroyed in that very event. After your mother broke in, she was also severely injured, and I happened to meet her. I was still very young at that time."

Liu Yun and Liu Feng stared at their father, listening to him recount the experience when he first met their mother.

Liu Chuanshang said, "At that time, I could only sense that your mother was also from the pure Demon Clan; I had no idea about her real identity. By the time I found out, she was already my wife. She told me everything. She had stolen a treasure from her father, which is also the most precious treasure of the entire Demon Clan. She was being hunted down by the great Demon King's men, escaped here, and fell in love with me. From a selfish and indifferent demoness, she slowly transformed into a gentle woman with many beautiful human qualities. It was only then that she started to regret—if she hadn't stolen that thing, perhaps the great Demon King wouldn't have been so furious, and he wouldn't have been so relentless in pursuit. Then she could have stayed with me forever. But alas, she had already done it; her father would never forgive her. So, she found a way to fake death repeatedly. Each time, the duration of death varied; sometimes for decades or hundreds of years, sometimes for thousands of years. Every time she woke up, she only dared to stay with me for two or three years, and she had to disperse all her powers and become an ordinary person every time; otherwise, she would be discovered... Sigh."

Liu Chuanshang said this and couldn't help but sigh deeply. His thick brows furrowed, and his handsome face finally showed a trace of sadness.

"What did mother steal? Something so important?" Liu Feng couldn't help asking.

Liu Chuanshang bared his teeth in a smile, "That thing was thrown away by your mother, seems like it was used to harm a little Elf."

"..." Liu Yun suddenly thought of something and stared at his father in shock, "Elf?"

"Hey, back then in the Elf Clan, there was a guy known as the Elf Saint Son. He saw your mother and was struck by her beauty, and went to court her—after being rejected by your mother, he still wouldn't give up. That damned pretty boy, relying on his good looks, actually persisted pestering her," Liu Chuanshang said with some anger, grinding his teeth: "I wanted to kill him at the time, but your mother stopped me. She said why bother killing him when we can test his nature. She gave that thing to the Elf Saint Son, telling him that if he could resist the temptation not to study this thing, she'd give him a chance to pursue her after a thousand years."

Liu Yun and Liu Feng exchanged glances, both feeling that their heads were a bit muddled. This woman, compared to the mother they imagined... seemed to be a bit different. She wasn't as gentle and kind as their father had described, in her bones, the nature of the Demon Clan was hard to change.

This was indeed harming someone; that thing was a holy artifact of the Demon Clan, inherently endowed with incomparable demonic nature. The Sacred Artifact of Light? The epitome of darkness is light! Who in this world can truly distinguish between the real darkness and light?

Putting that aside for now, just considering the sensitivity of this thing, the great Demon King could hunt down his own daughter over this dharma instrument—if this thing fell into the hands of the Elf Clan, the entire Elf Clan would probably be listed as a must-kill target by the Demon Clan!

This wasn't just harming a little Elf; this was harming the entire Elf Clan!

However, coming back to this matter, if we were to blame, it would only be the fault of the Elf Saint Son's greed—if he hadn't been greedy, had not accepted this dharma instrument, then the entire Elf Clan wouldn't have faced any danger.

In the end, it was still greed at play.

At this point, they also knew what thing their mother had stolen.

The Sacred Artifact of Light!

To be precise, it should be called the holy artifact of darkness!

A genuine holy artifact!

Once, in the entire Heavenly Realm, there was a top-tier dharma instrument ranked among the Ten Heavenly Artifacts!

The reason it wasn't placed in the first position was that at the time, nobody could truly activate it. This dharma instrument... to be precise, there were two items, a bracelet and a sword. Even though they couldn't be fully activated, the power they demonstrated was still enough to make people shudder.

"That Elf Saint, after enduring for several years, couldn't help it and desired to thoroughly research those two dharma instruments. Then, he fell into demonhood..." Liu Chuanshang pursed his lips, shrugged his shoulders, and spread his hands, saying, "As a result, the entire Elf Clan suffered a tragedy. They split in two; one branch became the Forsaken Elves and wandered far from home; the other branch, carrying those two completely demonized items, escaped to the lower realm. But actually, no matter where they fled, it was all meaningless. Once the Demon Clan arrives, the Great Demon King will inevitably send someone to reclaim these items. By that time, his hatred for your mother might lessen a little. Maybe... maybe he will show some mercy and spare your mother. Then... our happy days will truly come."

Liu Yun and Liu Feng felt as if their heads were about to burst, sensing that the people around them were playing a grand chess game that spanned thousands or even tens of thousands of years!

So was their mother, their father who had been low-key and enduring, and also the Blood Demon Ancestor, and that Qin Family supreme, Qin Cang... all the same!

It turns out, the truly naive to the point of foolishness, are only people like us.

And Chu Mo.

He is truly foolish. Doesn't he know how dangerous the thing he wants to do is?

Liu Yun snapped back to reality, her heart almost breaking. She even guessed what might have happened to the Elf Clan princess Chu Mo deeply loves.

She picked up the message board, and aside from her own identity, she conveyed everything she could tell as clearly as possible. Even if Chu Mo couldn't see it, she still had to say it. Just maybe, to attain some peace of mind!

Because Liu Yun was very clear that after today, she would no longer be the same. Perhaps, the fate between her and Chu Mo would also come to an end.

In her mind, she is a demon, he is human!

Just consider that everything in the past was all a dream.

Fortunately, we never really started. That way, I don't feel so bad.

But, does it really not hurt?

Liu Yun was silently weeping while sending this information to Chu Mo on the message board.

Liu Chuanshang didn't stop his daughter from doing this because in his view, all of it was futile. All of it had no meaning.

The fate of Chu Mo was already destined. In this era, unless the Drifting Empress resurrects, no one could escape unscathed from under the eyes of both the Blood Demon Ancestor and Qin Cang.

In the endless void, countless stars hang above the sky.

The warship was silently speeding through space.

Up to now, Chu Mo and his company had already traveled more than half of the distance.

On this day, Chu Mo took the initiative to ask the warship to stop.

Everyone gathered around, looking at Chu Mo, not knowing what he was going to do.

Chu Mo's eyes, gazing at a huge star millions of miles away, spoke softly, "You all wait for me here... no, that won't do, back up a few more million miles."

"What are you going to do?" The old man with a tobacco pipe frowned, looking at Chu Mo.

Chu Mo glanced at the crowd and said indifferently, "I am going to transcend the tribulation."
