Chapter 2: Conquering Her and Unleashing

a Surge of Power
I, the villain, put in countless efforts and worked diligently, with both strategy and strength
befitting a villain! Yet, in the end, I was defeated by a foolish and worthless plaything?

To be honest, if the protagonist was the righteous type, Ling Xue wouldn't mind becoming
friends. However, if the protagonist was that kind of pure idiot, well, sorry, I would rather
take you out early!

As a transmigrator, Ling Xue certainly wouldn't allow those foolish events from the original
work to unfold. He couldn't follow the original storyline!

To change everything from the original, there was only one breakthrough point - the heroine!

The top heroine, now lying in the box, was Yun Luo Xi. In the original, there were a group of
heroines, among them, two were most special - the big heroine was the one before him now.

As for the small heroine, she was the childhood sweetheart of the protagonist, always
clinging to him and shouting that she would marry him since they were kids. Honestly, that
small heroine was practically the protagonist's exclusive, sharing the same lack of brains.

In the original work, the small heroine eventually married the protagonist and even gave birth
to his child...

However, Yun Luo Xi, the woman lying before him, was different! She was the goddess that
the protagonist pursued his whole life, yet never managed to attain. The unattainable
moonlight in the protagonist's life, someone he never truly possessed, neither physically nor
emotionally!

And she had a particularly enormous secret - an incredibly heaven-defying ability. This
ability, known only to Ling Xue, who had read the original work, was completely unknown
to everyone else, including Yun Luo Xi herself.

This heaven-defying ability meant that any man who got her would be as strong in reality as
she imagined him to be in her mind.

In other words, regardless of their actual cultivation or any obstacles, as long as Yun Luo Xi
believed a man to be powerful, that man would indeed become powerful. It worked only in a
positive way and could only increase strength, not weaken it.

Of course, the precondition was that Yun Luo Xi genuinely believed and had full confidence
in the matter, not just imagining things out of thin air. It had to be something she truly
believed!

Such an incredibly heaven-defying ability, even in a fantasy world, would be considered

Yun Luo Xi was a quite unique heroine and the most likable character in the original work!

Therefore, Ling Xue brought Yun Luo Xi here. With her, it was equivalent to having
everything! As long as he gained her, all he needed to do was guide her to imagine his
strength in the future. Today, he had to make her help him take the first step! To free himself
from the fate of a congenital waste and gain the highest possible cultivation!

Ling Xue had already planned everything well in advance.

"Young Lord, why did we bring this woman back?" At this moment, Xiaoxiao spoke, looking
pitiful, "If Young Lord wants her to be the main wife, then... then, will you not need me
anymore?"

Ling Xue remained silent, turning around and walking outside.

"Young Lord, please explain! Why did you bring her back? What is her relationship with
you..." Xiaoxiao quickly caught up with him.

She kept bombarding him with questions, but Ling Xue didn't bother answering any of them.
Side by side, they walked through the desolate halls of the once glorious Demon Clan. The
clan that once flourished with thousands of soldiers, now only bore a stark emptiness...

Whether Demon Clan would rise again rested solely on Ling Xue's shoulders. Soon, Ling
Xue, accompanied by the lively Xiaoxiao, arrived at a secluded spot - a cliff where ethereal
mists danced, creating a picturesque scene.

Sitting on a rock at the edge of the cliff was a graceful woman in a green dress, her elegance
blending seamlessly with the surrounding nature. Several spiritual butterflies fluttered around
her, creating a beautiful sight.

She was one of Demon Clan's top experts, once a trusted general by Ling Xue's father. Her
name was Xiaoxiang Yu. With Demon Clan's decline, she chose to stay and cultivate in this
desolate place. Many of Demon Clan's top experts were scattered across the world, each
longing for someone to unite and revive Demon Clan.

That person was none other than Ling Xue. Unfortunately, Ling Xue's performance indicated
that he was a congenital waste, extinguishing any hope for them.

Though Ling Xue was the Demon Clan's young master, he couldn't boss these experts around
like slaves. Simple tasks like pouring tea or carrying boxes were impossible for him to
command anyone other than Xiaoxiao. As for more important matters, they wouldn't refuse,
but so far, nothing significant had occurred...

"Young Lord?"
When Xiaoxiang Yu noticed Ling Xue's arrival, she called out gently, her voice melodious
and pleasant. Despite Ling Xue's inability to revitalize Demon Clan, he was still the young
master, the future Demon Clan Lord, earning him a certain level of respect from her.

Among the former Demon Clan experts, Xiaoxiang Yu was the one who respected Ling Xue
the most.

Ling Xue approached her slowly and stood by Xiaoxiang Yu's side, saying in a calm tone,
"Help me with something."

"What does the young master need?" Xiaoxiang Yu didn't turn around and remained seated.

"Grant me the same cultivation level as yours," Ling Xue stated plainly.

Hearing this, Xiaoxiang Yu was taken aback for a moment before she smiled bitterly, "If the
young master possessed the same cultivation as me, wouldn't it be easy to revive Demon Clan
now?"

Back in his father's time, he was already an expert at the peak of the Martial Realm,
specifically, at the Supreme Martial Tenth Stage.

The cultivation levels were divided into ten stages - Spirit Martial Realm to Supreme Martial
Realm, with intermediate stages being Earth Realm, Heaven Realm, and Divine Realm.
These three major stages were also known as Earthly Spirit Realm, Heavenly Profound
Realm, and Divine Origin Realm.

His father, of course, was at the Supreme Martial Tenth Stage. Now, Xiaoxiang Yu had
reached the Divine Origin Realm. It took her countless years to achieve this level of
cultivation. If Ling Xue had such cultivation at twenty years old, wouldn't he be even more
monstrous than his father?

After all, Ling Xue's father was only at the Heavenly Profound Realm when he was twenty
years old!

"This kind of favor would trouble you, Young Lord!" Xiaoxiang Yu continued with a bitter
smile.

"In that case... could you grant me the cultivation level of the Divine Origin Realm, even if
it's just for a moment?" Ling Xue continued slowly, "Consider it a life-saving trump card,
something that might come in handy."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiang Yu understood Ling Xue's request. He merely wanted a crucial
life-saving measure!

"That's not difficult," Xiaoxiang Yu said as she stood up. She turned around, raised her palm,
and struck Ling Xue's chest. A majestic spiritual energy surged into him.

"I'll leave this power within you. When the time comes, you can unleash an attack as
powerful as the Divine Origin Realm," Xiaoxiang Yu explained, "But... it's limited to once,
just for a moment. Don't waste it unless absolutely necessary."
A faint smile appeared on Ling Xue's lips as he replied, "Thank you."

"Why thank me?" Xiaoxiang Yu sighed softly, her gaze drifting into the distance. She
murmured, "This is all we can do for you..."

Once, they promised to assist Ling Xue in becoming the new Demon Clan Lord.
Unfortunately, they couldn't fulfill that promise. After all, a congenital waste like him was
truly beyond redemption.

They could only take things one step at a time, doing what they could. Many even left Demon
Clan, but she would always stay, standing by Ling Xue's side.

"There's still a lot you can do for me," Ling Xue said with a faint smile, "By the way, I
haven't seen you for a while, and you seem to have become even more beautiful."

"Haha!" Xiaoxiang Yu glanced at Ling Xue and teased, "You're just using sweet talk on me!"

With a hint of amusement in his crimson eyes, Ling Xue gazed into the distance and said
lightly, "As for the others... I'll make them come back voluntarily!"

Hearing this, Xiaoxiang Yu's eyebrows twitched slightly. In this moment, she seemed to
catch a glimpse of something she had never seen in Ling Xue's eyes before, something
unfathomable. Soon after, Ling Xue averted his gaze.

After smiling at Xiaoxiang Yu, Ling Xue turned and left.

"Young Lord..." Xiaoxiao quickly caught up, curiously asking, "So, Young Lord, did I
become prettier?"

"Hmm... You're beautiful every day!" Ling Xue replied half-heartedly.

Watching Ling Xue's departing figure, Xiaoxiang Yu withdrew her gaze after a while. Could
he truly have the ability to bring back those who left Demon Clan? Could she witness the
revival of Demon Clan?

...

Ling Xue returned to his residence and said to Xiaoxiao, "Wait outside, don't come in!"

"Eh? But I..." Xiaoxiao's face flushed with frustration.

As expected, there would be trouble when the young master brought a woman back. And he
didn't even let her in? Why not? She couldn't even take a glimpse?

Moreover, if the young master had some thoughts, wouldn't it be even better to include her?
Two at once; wouldn't the young master be happier then?
