If it weren't for Qin Chen keeping an eye on it, he might not have detected this dark power's movements.
With a loud "boom", Mei Yaoqing's body floated in mid-air, completely unclothed, her aura converging as she landed on the ground, her expression flushed and excited as she said, "Thank you, my lord."
Her posture resembled a flower ready to be picked.
She had already broken through to the earth venerable realm, how could she not be excited?
"No need to thank me. Your cultivation is still too weak. Come here."
Qin Chen raised his hand, and instantly, the unclothed Mei Yaoqing was drawn into his embrace, her hot body pressed against him, radiating immense heat.
Qin Chen, however, remained unmoved, simply placing his palm on Mei Yaoqing's head. With a loud boom, a torrent of demonic power surged into Mei Yaoqing's body.
This included a trace of the Myriad Realms Demon Tree's power.
Boom! Mei Yaoqing's aura surged again, advancing from the early earth venerable stage to the peak of the early earth venerable stage, and even higher.
At the same time, the aura of the Myriad Realms Demon Tree suddenly entered Mei Yaoqing's sea of souls.
Qin Chen's intention to elevate Mei Yaoqing's cultivation was false; his true aim was to probe her soul's changes.
He noticed that within Mei Yaoqing's soul, a mysterious dark power was lurking, which the Myriad Realms Demon Tree instantly detected. The dark power erupted, attempting to break free from the Myriad Realms Demon Tree's influence.
"Hmph, extinguish!"
Qin Chen sneered inwardly and effortlessly eradicated this dark power, though a hint of confusion crossed his mind.
This dark power seemed parasitic, residing within Mei Yaoqing's soul.
"Go on."
Qin Chen lifted his head, and Mei Yaoqing was sent flying away. A cloak wrapped around her, making her beautiful figure, now devoid of clothing, appear hazy.
At this moment, Mei Yaoqing had also broken through to the mid-stage earth venerable realm and even advanced towards the late earth venerable realm.
The techniques of the Demon Tribe were extremely domineering and could easily elevate one's cultivation, but they could also lead to a loss of sanity. However, with Qin Chen's cultivation and the wonders of the Myriad Realms Demon Tree, he could help anyone reach the heavenly venerable realm without any repercussions.
But that wasn’t necessary.
"Thank you, my lord."
Mei Yaoqing knelt on the ground like a servant, gazing at Qin Chen with clear eyes, as if he were a gentleman. Her heart was filled with indescribable feelings, a hint of disappointment stirring within.
Was she not beautiful?
Why did the lord not seek her?
As long as the lord asked, she would be willing to do anything.
"What's wrong?
Do you have something to say?"
Qin Chen noticed that Mei Yaoqing had not left and frowned slightly.
"Ah, this subordinate takes their leave!"
She exclaimed, not daring to linger, hurriedly wrapping her cloak around herself and turning to leave.
After Mei Yaoqing departed, Qin Chen rested his chin on his hand, furrowing his brow.
"Strange, why is this dark power so concealed? What is its purpose?"
Qin Chen found it hard to comprehend.
This was the Demon Realm.
If it were among the human race, such concealed dark power would be understandable, since in other places, once the origin of the universe sensed dark power, it would initiate suppression.
Moreover, if anyone from the human race discovered someone cultivating dark power, they would undoubtedly be eradicated.
But here in the Demon Realm, it was perfectly normal for the Demon Tribe to possess dark power. Why be so cautious?
Could there be some hidden agenda?
Qin Chen pondered silently; indeed, this matter was very peculiar.
In the deep night, Qin Chen stood at the Third Demon General's Manor, looking up at the moon in the sky.
This was the second day since he arrived at the Demon General's Manor, yet tomorrow he would be leaving for Eternal Demon Island.
"Who?"
Suddenly, Qin Chen called out sharply, turning to look toward a corner not far away.
