How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!

Chapter 631: Chapter 0626: A Huge Scapegoat

As for the Yun Family’s crushing defeat at the hands of the Black Heart Eleven Bandits, Chen Yu didn’t bother to get involved, as it had nothing to do with him.

Originally, Chen Yu planned to request guest elder status with the Yun Family to gain some benefits, since he didn’t have enough Primordial Stones to buy more Sea Cleaning Pills.

But considering the Yun Family had been constantly surveilling him, it was clear they didn’t trust Chen Yu and even suspected him.

Chen Yu feared that if he made the request, the Yun Family might reject it, which would be quite embarrassing.

Unexpectedly, one day Yang An approached Chen Yu and proactively brought up the matter.

“Brother Chen, you’re new to the Great Yu Realm and unfamiliar with the place; how about you stay with the Yun Family for a while and become our guest elder?”

Yang An took the initiative to speak to Chen Yu.

The Yun Family had suffered heavy losses and urgently needed to replenish their strength.

Although Chen Yu had been previously doubted, during the month Yang An had been surveilling him, he hadn’t observed any unusual behavior on Chen Yu’s part.

Moreover, if Chen Yu really was a spy, his actions would definitely escalate after becoming a guest elder of the Yun Family, and exposing a traitor sooner rather than later would be beneficial. If Chen Yu was not a traitor, it wouldn’t harm the Yun Family.

“I was thinking the same.”

Chen Yu readily accepted.

“Then it’s settled. From now on, Brother Chen will be a guest elder of the Yun Family. Should the Yun Family face any crisis, we hope Brother Chen will assist with all your might, and the Yun Family will never treat you unfairly!”

Yang An wore an enthusiastic smile.

Following that, Chen Yu received the guest elder identity token and the resources for the month, totaling three hundred medium grade essence stones.

As a guest elder, receiving three hundred medium grade essence stones monthly amounted to over three thousand medium grade essence stones a year, equivalent to over three hundred thousand low grade essence stones.

If the Yun Family encountered no trouble, Chen Yu, as a guest elder who did nothing, would gain three hundred thousand low grade essence stones a year for free, which always seemed like a good deal.

Furthermore, as a guest elder, he could enjoy many privileges, such as purchasing spirit pills and precious materials at a ten percent discount!

Five months later, Chen Yu used the remaining Primordial Stones to purchase another Sea Cleaning Pill.

With that, he had used up all his Primordial Stones.

Chen Yu thought that if he could freely travel between the Kunyun Realm and the Great Yu Realm, taking the goods from here and selling them in the Kunyun Realm would definitely make a fortune.

After obtaining the Sea Cleaning Pill, Chen Yu returned to his residence to cultivate.

As a high-quality elixir, it was Chen Yu’s second time consuming a Sea Cleaning Pill, and the effect was still excellent.

Of course, the mysterious heart played a part in this as well.

Half a month later, Chen Yu emerged from seclusion.

“The impurities in the True Essence Lake have been expelled by ninety percent!”

Chen Yu smiled.

In just half a year, the potential risks left by the use of the Blood Star Holy Pill were almost eradicated.

This process of expelling impurities and purifying True Yuan also served to refine his True Yuan and solidify his foundation.

If things went well, Chen Yu was confident that within a year, he could break through to the Late Stage Guiyuan Realm Peak.

It should be noted that Chen Yu was not yet thirty-four years old and was slightly more exceptional than Yan Hanshan, a genius of the three-and-a-half-star forces of the Great Yu Realm.

Of course, this wasn’t because Chen Yu’s innate talent was exceptionally strong; much of this progress was due to the mysterious heart.

Since Chen Yu obtained the “Eternal Heart” at the Yunyue Sect, his life had changed.

Just then,

Chen Yu suddenly sensed a strong fluctuation of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi; the vast Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi of the entire Yun Family was gathering towards one location.

Stepping out of his room, he looked over.

He saw above a building, Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi swirling madly, forming a massive white vortex that reflected a dazzlingly pure sword radiance.

“Yan Hanshan is attempting to break through to Half-step Sky Sea!”

“He’s amazing; Yan Hanshan is only thirty-nine this year, I think.”

“With such talent and aptitude, Brother Hanshan’s future achievements will be limitless!”

The people of the Yun Family discussed among themselves, filled with great excitement.

By now, everyone knew that Yan Hanshan was in love with a woman of the Yun Family, and he would soon be considered their son-in-law.

While some rejoiced, others despaired.

“Damn it!”

Yang Fenghou stared at the sky, his fists clenched.

Yan Hanshan’s brilliance had completely overshadowed him. Recently, the family discussions had almost exclusively been about Yan Hanshan, and now with Yan Hanshan’s attempt to break through to Half-step Sky Sea, Yang Fenghou felt he no longer had the courage to compete with him.

He feared that after Yan Hanshan’s breakthrough to Half-step Sky Sea, he wouldn’t be able to withstand even ten moves against him!

Soon, the phenomenon disappeared.

To trigger such phenomena for a minor realm breakthrough from Late Stage Guiyuan Realm Peak to Half-step Sky Sea was already quite astonishing.

After Yan Hanshan’s breakthrough, both the Yang Family Head and the Clan Leader personally summoned Yan Hanshan.

“The Great Yu Realm truly deserves its reputation as a powerful realm in the vast universe, brimming with talents!”

Chen Yu remarked.

However, it was precisely this competition and pressure that provided more motivation.

Chen Yu had already decided to leave the Yun Family after half a year.

He had learned that in half a year’s time, the nearby three-and-a-half-star force, the Heavenly Jade Sect, would be recruiting disciples.

Compared to the Yun Family, the Heavenly Jade Sect was indeed one of the mighty overlords of the Southern Domain, and if he could enter it, Chen Yu’s path would undoubtedly become much broader in the future.

One day, Yan Hanshan suddenly paid a visit, which surprised Chen Yu.

Although Chen Yu and Yan Hanshan had both gained access to the Yun Family, they had not communicated much.

“Brother Chen, your aura has become more restrained, and it seems you are not far from reaching the Late Stage Guiyuan Realm Peak,” said Yan Hanshan, somewhat surprised to see Chen Yu.

Having just reached Half-step Sky Sea, he had begun to feel a sense of pride, but seeing Chen Yu, who came from a minor realm, progressing so quickly made him somewhat uncomfortable.

“I’m no match for Brother Yan!” Chen Yu politely replied, also admiring Yan Hanshan’s achievements.

“How much longer do you plan to stay with the Yun Family?” Yan Hanshan’s inquiry left Chen Yu somewhat puzzled.

“Half a year. Once the Heavenly Jade Sect starts recruiting disciples, I’ll give it a try. By then, we might be sect brothers, so I’ll be counting on Brother Yan to look after me,” Chen Yu said with a chuckle.

“Oh? If that’s the case, then let me call you ‘junior brother’ in advance!” Yan Hanshan’s eyes were profound and inscrutable, as he said meaningfully, “Right now, big brother has a matter and needs junior brother’s help!”

“What’s the matter?”

Chen Yu’s brows knitted slightly.

He hadn’t yet joined the Heavenly Jade Sect, and Yan Hanshan was already calling himself Senior Brother and asking him to do things.

“Help Senior Brother deal with… the Yang Family!”

Yan Hanshan’s tone was calm and slow as he spoke.

Hearing the last two words, Chen Yu’s pupils suddenly shrank.

Yan Hanshan wanted to deal with the Yang Family? What was going on?

Suddenly, Chen Yu understood something.

But just at that moment, Yan Hanshan’s figure burst forth, a White Jade Treasure Sword in his hand, its edge flashing with a cold gleam.

Observing Chen Yu’s expression, Yan Hanshan knew he would not help him.

So, without another word, he decided to eliminate this hidden threat first!

A stunning white sword light illuminated the entire room, slashing towards Chen Yu.

Boom!

A loud noise erupted, and the entire room was cleaved in two by Yan Hanshan’s sword.

Swoosh!

Out of the dust, a black shadow flashed by—it was Chen Yu.

Chen Yu’s sense of danger was still very strong, and coupled with his expertise in body cultivation, known for defense, he successfully blocked Yan Hanshan’s sword.

At the same time, Chen Yu realized the situation was dire, and decided it was better to slip away first.

“He’s still alive? It seems you indeed come from no ordinary background!”

Yan Hanshan murmured.

Originally, he wouldn’t care about someone from a lower realm, but ever since he met Chen Yu, he felt that Chen Yu was not simple, and that’s why he sought Chen Yu tonight. If Chen Yu immediately left the Yang Family, or acted in a manner trying to ingratiate himself, then Yan Hanshan would have gained an additional helper.

Unfortunately, things didn’t go as he wished.

“What’s going on?”

“What happened?”

Yan Hanshan’s move had startled the nearby members of the Yang Family.

“Chen Yu is an inside agent. During the last extermination of the Black Heart Eleven Bandits, it was he who tipped them off, leading to such heavy losses for the Yang Family!”

“He noticed my identity, so he attacked me, preparing to flee the Yang Family!”

Yan Hanshan calmly shouted out loud, his voice spreading in all directions.

His prestige within the Yang Family was high at the moment, and many young members saw him as a role model, trusting his words greatly.

“This man is a beast in human clothing!”

As he was fleeing, Chen Yu also heard Yan Hanshan’s accusation and immediately cursed.

He had previously not cared about Yan Hanshan, so he had not anticipated him to be so cunning.

Suddenly.

Swoosh!

A brilliant beam of light rose from a location within the Yang Family, shooting straight to the heavens before transforming into a huge globe of light.

“This is… a signal!”

A steward reacted.

This was a signal arranged by Yan Hanshan, once activated, the Black Heart Eleven Bandits would make their move.

Whoosh, whoosh!

In the far-off sky, two enormous dark shapes suddenly appeared, and soon two black ships appeared above the Yang Family.

Boom, boom, boom!

Suddenly, from above the black ships, a dull purple light shimmered, and instantly, more than a dozen beams of light shot down from the ships, hitting various places within the Yang Family.

The entire Yang Family quivered slightly and was suddenly engulfed in flames.

“Kill!”

“Ha ha ha, slaughter and plunder them all!”

Voices filled with bloodthirstiness and laughter came out, and figures were seen leaping down from the ships one after another.

“The Black Heart Eleven Bandits!”

“Damn, the Black Heart Eleven Bandits have actually attacked the Yang Family.”

“All this is Chen Yu’s doing!”

Voices filled with boundless anger sounded within the Yang Family.

“Yang Family, today will be the day of your annihilation!”

The Black Heart Boss descended swiftly, unleashing a huge black claw that crashed down, instantly killing more than a dozen people and destroying three houses.

“Seeking death!”

“Today, let’s make sure the Black Heart Eleven Bandits cannot leave alive!”

Higher-ups in the Yang Family appeared one after another, ready to meet the Black Heart Eleven Bandits head-on.

Swoosh!

In the back mountains of the Yang Family, a purple light flickered and transformed into an emaciated, elderly man—this was the Yang Family Ancestor, the sole Sky Sea Realm powerhouse of the family.

His arrival made the skies gloom, his immense and invisible might bearing down on the Black Heart Eleven Bandits.

“Boss, a Sky Sea Realm!”

Black Heart Second, a hunched man, took a slight step back.

“What’s there to be afraid of? He’s been setting this up in the Yang Family for so long. If it fails, we’ll just hand him over. Then the Yang Family will definitely go after him first!”

The Black Heart Boss remained composed.

Suddenly.

A faint fragrance wafted from nowhere, spreading quickly.

“Ah…”

Beside them, the Yang Family Head clutched his head and screamed. His veins bulged and his skin started to turn blue, as if he had been poisoned!

It wasn’t just the Family Head who was affected.

Nearly forty percent of the Yang Family’s upper echelons had been poisoned and were now crying out in agony.

“Damn it, Chen Yu even resorted to poisoning?”

Yang Fenghou also cried out in torment.

In response to this, Chen Yu, hiding in the darkness, could only curse Yan Hanshan in his heart for landing him such an enormous frame-up.
