Possession successful! The Demon Emperor kneels in welcome; Lin Mo has conquered both righteous and demonic forces!

On the wasteland.

You Xuan, whose features were distorted in pain, suddenly grew calm after a bout of violent trembling.

When his unfocused eyes opened once more, they were a deep, profound darkness!

"Very good."

"I have successfully occupied this body."

"From now on, the identity of You Xuan belongs to me!"

The reborn "You Xuan" slowly raised his hand and clenched his fist somewhat stiffly, as if adapting to this brand-new Physical Body.

Then, a wicked sneer curled at the corners of his mouth as he muttered to the Void Realm:

"Don't worry, even though you won't have the chance to return to the Nine Nether Demon Prison."

"I can go back in your stead and properly 'enjoy' the power and resources there."

Everything went as smoothly as he had expected.

You Xuan's previous condition was truly abysmal; he was heavily injured, and even his Divine Soul was on the verge of extreme weakness.

In that state, facing the Possession of Black-robed Lin Mo, You Xuan had no room for resistance at all, as fragile as an infant.

"Hmph..."

With a thought, You Xuan looked inward at his Sea of Consciousness.

In the deepest depths of the Sea of Consciousness, a crimson orb radiating a terrifying aura floated quietly.

That was precisely a protective Divine Thought specifically left by the Demon Saint Old Ancestor of the Youyan Demon Clan to protect this junior who carried high hopes.

Logically, once the host encountered a crisis of Possession or Divine Soul annihilation, this Divine Thought would instantly erupt and kill the intruder.

But at this moment... it seemed to be asleep, showing no reaction.

"Heh, this so-called Demon Saint Divine Thought is nothing more than this."

You Xuan sneered inwardly.

Enveloped by his Origin Devilish Qi, that Divine Thought had been completely blinded.

It couldn't sense at all that the core of the host had been replaced by someone else.

Instead, because of the purer and higher-level demonic intent within Black-robed Lin Mo,

it would mistakenly believe the host had undergone some kind of beneficial transformation, thus becoming even more docile.

"This also suits my intentions perfectly."

"Only this way, after entering the Nine Nether Demon Palace, will I avoid being detected by those old monsters who have lived for countless years."

"Otherwise, if they found out their own Demon Seed had been possessed by someone else, they would probably go insane."

Having confirmed that the greatest hidden danger had been eliminated, You Xuan finally turned his attention to the condition of this body.

At this moment, half of his body had been blasted away by Lunar Power, and the severed area was covered by a thick layer of frost, preventing the regeneration of flesh.

Intense pain assaulted his nerves every second.

"Tsk, the original body really struck hard..."

"He directly crippled me."

You Xuan shook his head, complaining that the original body had been too heavy-handed.

"I must find a way to recover first."

After sensing his current terrible state, You Xuan no longer hesitated.

He directly took out several precious Demonic Pills radiating dense Devilish Qi from his Storage Ring and swallowed them all at once.

Boom!

The Demonic Pills entered his stomach, turning into surging medicinal power.

You Xuan immediately circulated his Demonic Technique and began to heal.

If it were the original You Xuan, trying to expel the Taiyin Cold Qi at the wound, which was like a maggot on a bone, would probably require immense effort.

But for the current "You Xuan," it was a piece of cake.

Because he was originally a part of Lin Mo, his understanding of Lunar Power, even if not as good as the original body, far exceeded that of ordinary people.

"Disperse!"

With a thought, that layer of stubborn frost quickly receded like melting snow.

Then, driven by the medicinal power of the Demonic Pills, the mangled flesh began to writhe and grow frantically.

Flesh grew over white bone, and Meridians were reconnected.

One hour later.

Accompanied by a series of crackling bone sounds, You Xuan slowly stood up.

Although his face was still pale and his aura somewhat weak, his half-mangled body had completely returned to its original state, showing no trace of injury.

"Whew..."

"I can barely move now."

"However, although the injuries on the surface have healed, the internal depletion cannot be fully restored for the time being."

"I must return to the Demon Prison first."

You Xuan stretched his muscles and bones slightly and made a decision.

He flipped his hand to take out a pitch-black Communication Token and crushed it without hesitation.

Then, he stood with his hands behind his back, waiting quietly in place.

About half an hour later.

Buzz!

The space in front of him suddenly shook violently.

Then, a spatial portal was forcibly torn open.

An elite Demon Race squad of about a dozen people, wearing black armor and radiating terrifying Evil Qi,

filed out from the crack and arrived before him.

"You Shi greets the Young Lord!!"

The leading Demon Race general, the moment he saw You Xuan,

a respectful expression immediately appeared on his cold face covered in demonic patterns.

He knelt on one knee before You Xuan without hesitation and gave a deep salute.

Seeing this, the dozen or so Demon Race elites behind him also knelt in unison, their voices shaking the sky.

"We greet the Young Lord!!!"

"Mhm, no need for such formalities."

To this, You Xuan's expression was indifferent, only nodding slightly, fully displaying the majesty of a superior.

"This Young Lord has just sustained significant injuries and needs to return to the Demon Palace immediately to recover!"

His gaze swept over the general named You Shi.

Although the other party had deliberately restrained his aura, based on the information obtained from the original host's memories, he still recognized the other's identity immediately.

This was a Demon Emperor powerhouse!

He was even a veteran Demon Emperor who had been immersed in the Nirvana Third Step for many years!

His strength was far beyond that of the previously escaped Demon Emperor.

But even in the face of such a powerhouse, You Xuan's attitude was not polite at all, even carrying a bit of natural bossiness.

Simply because this You Shi was the personal guard commander specifically assigned to him by the Youyan Demon Clan's Demon Saint Old Ancestor!

This was the confidence brought by his status!

"Yes!"

"This subordinate understands!"

"I will escort the Young Lord back immediately!"

Sure enough, hearing You Xuan's command, You Shi not only showed no dissatisfaction but instead had a flash of nervousness in his eyes.

The Young Lord is injured? This is a major matter!

Without a second thought, he bowed and agreed.

Immediately after, with a wave of his hand, he summoned an extremely luxurious black carriage built entirely from unknown beast bones.

"Young Lord, please!"

You Shi respectfully invited You Xuan to sit inside.

Once You Xuan was seated, he tore through space again, opening a stable passage directly to the Demon Prison.

Then, leading the dozen or so elites, he escorted the luxurious carriage as it grandly entered the Void Realm and disappeared... Meanwhile.

Inside a luxurious guest room in Zhenyuan Pass.

After carefully settling the still-unconscious Mu Yurou on the bed to rest,

Lin Mo straightened up, turned to look out the window, and a meaningful smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Heh..."

"I didn't expect it to actually work."

That feeling of mental connection allowed him to clearly perceive everything happening on the side of the Demon Ancestor Clone.

"Now..."

"Not only am I doing exceptionally well on the Human Race's side, but I also have a top-tier alternate identity among the Demon Race."

"I can even mobilize Demon Emperor-level powerhouses as bodyguards..."

"Doesn't this count as a kind of..."

"Dominating both the righteous and demonic paths?"

Lin Mo rubbed his chin, the smile in his eyes deepening.

With these two identities in hand, no matter how chaotic the Cangxuan Great Realm becomes in the future, the chaos will not reach him!

This move was truly brilliant!
