75: The female protagonist who yearns for the demon race 1

This is a world where the Human Race and the Demon Race are at a standoff.

The heroine, Luo Xuerou, and the Original Owner, Qin Jiuge, were childhood sweethearts who grew up together.

However, a meticulously designed "accident" caused her to cross paths with Agul, the Young Lord of the Demon Race.

Since that night, she seemed to have lost her soul, plunging headfirst into so-called "love."

Hiding it from everyone, she repeatedly sneaked out of the Human Race's defensive lines to have secret trysts with Agul in Demon Race territory.

She even became pregnant with his child.

Indulging in the superficial flattery of the Demon Race, she had long forgotten she was human.

Not only was she madly obsessed with Demon Race culture, she also despised the race that raised her from the bottom of her heart, feeling ashamed of her human Bloodline.

To obtain the "conversion qualification" from the Demon Race and to give her and Agul's child a "noble home," she chose betrayal without hesitation.

She sold core secrets such as the Human Race's defense maps, the locations of supply depots, and the times of high-level meetings entirely to the Demon Race.

On the day of the final battle, the Human Race's soldiers fell into an encirclement because of the intelligence she leaked. The high-level leadership was lured and killed, and countless compatriots died miserably under the blade.

The Original Owner, Qin Jiuge, was locked in a Demon Race prison with iron chains. Covered in wounds, he asked her:

"We grew up together. The Human Race treated you well; how could you be so heartless?"

Luo Xuerou's eyes were red, her tone pitiful yet self-righteous:

"What did I do wrong? I just love Agul too much, and I want to be a noble demon so badly!"

"The Human Race is lowly by nature; it doesn't matter how many die! Jiuge, you are my best friend, you should understand me!"

Seeing the blood-red killing intent in Qin Jiuge's eyes, she instantly tore off her weak disguise and cried out like a shrew throwing a tantrum:

"Qin Jiuge! You're actually so cold-blooded! I really misjudged you! A lowly human like you deserves to die!"

As her shrill cries fell, the executioner's blade severed Qin Jiuge's neck.

Meanwhile, she turned around and threw herself into Agul's arms, smiling as she accepted the cheers of the Demon Race.

As for those kinsmen who died because of her, they were merely stepping stones to her "happy life."

Afterward, Luo Xuerou successfully converted into a demon. She and Agul took their child,

And on the land piled high with the bones of the Human Race, they lived the "beautiful life" she had spoken of.

[Original Owner's Wish: Annihilate all demons, torture the heroine severely, and make her life worse than death]

"Let's begin. I can't wait."

...Qin Jiuge opened his eyes. At this moment, he was standing on a watchtower on the western side of the Human Race's defensive line.

The cold wind of early spring brushed against his face, carrying the sulfurous scent unique to the distant Demon Race territory.

According to his memory, there were still three months before the outbreak of the great war.

Luo Xuerou and Agul's illicit affair had just entered its third month.

She wasn't pregnant yet, and she hadn't leaked the Human Race's most core secrets.

But it had already begun.

Qin Jiuge could feel the tearing pain and monstrous hatred deep within the heart of this body's Original Owner.

"Jiuge, what are you doing standing here in a daze?"

A crisp voice sounded from behind him.

Qin Jiuge slowly turned around and saw the figure from the Original Owner's memory—Luo Xuerou.

She was wearing a light blue Human Race priestess robe, her long golden hair loosely tied back, her eyes clear as water, and a gentle smile on the corners of her mouth.

Anyone who saw her now would never imagine what an ugly heart was hidden beneath this beautiful skin.

"Just watching the movements on the Demon Race's side."

Qin Jiuge said calmly, his voice without a hint of emotion.

Luo Xuerou walked over and stood side-by-side with him, looking toward the never-dissipating dark red clouds over the distant Demon Race territory.

A flash of obsession that Qin Jiuge was familiar with crossed her eyes; it was her yearning for the Demon Race's so-called "nobility" and "advancement."

"Tell me... is the Demon Race really as barbaric as they say?"

Luo Xuerou asked softly, her tone testing him.

"I've heard their civilization is much more developed than ours. Music, art, magic... they all far surpass the Human Race."

Qin Jiuge sneered inwardly, but remained impassive on the surface:

"Hearing something is not as good as seeing it. The Demon Race is good at deceiving hearts; their words cannot be fully trusted."

Luo Xuerou bit her lip, appearing as if she wanted to say something, but eventually swallowed it back.

She turned to face Qin Jiuge and suddenly asked:

"Jiuge, if... if one day I had to hurt some people in an important choice,"

"But it would let me obtain true happiness, would you understand me?"

Here it comes.

Qin Jiuge's heart was cold. This was her test, the psychological groundwork laid for her future betrayal.

"That depends on what the choice is and who is being hurt."

Qin Jiuge looked directly into her eyes.

"If it is a choice to betray one's kin or forsake one's Bloodline, I would not understand. I would only end such betrayal with my own hands."

Luo Xuerou's expression changed slightly, and she forced a smile:

"I was just speaking casually. You will always be my best friend, Jiuge."

She reached out to pat Qin Jiuge's shoulder, but he subtly turned and avoided her:

"It's time for patrol. I should go check the eastern line's defensive works."

After saying that, he turned and walked down the watchtower, leaving Luo Xuerou standing there with a flash of complex emotion in her eyes.

In the following days, Qin Jiuge acted as the Original Owner, but began to lay his plans using his own thinking and methods.

First, he "unintentionally" discovered some Demon Race items Luo Xuerou had hidden:

An amulet engraved with Agul's Family crest, several Demon Race cultural texts, and even a set of Demon Race female clothing.

Qin Jiuge didn't make a sound. Instead, he quietly made copies of this evidence, while leaving the originals as they were.

Subsequently, using his status as a Human Race border defense commander, he began to adjust the deployments.

But what he did wasn't strengthening the defenses; he deliberately created loopholes—fake loopholes.

He moved the real supply depots deep underground but built a decoy depot on the original site, filled with hay soaked in fuel and other combustibles.

He changed all the times and locations for high-level meetings but left behind fake records,

Implying that the leadership would still gather at the scheduled time in the old meeting hall, which Qin Jiuge had already filled with numerous traps.

The most brilliant part was that Qin Jiuge forged a "Top Secret Plan."

It hinted that the Human Race would launch a full-scale counterattack in three months to wipe out the main force of the Demon Race in one fell swoop.

This plan was meticulously designed. Every detail was extremely persuasive, enough for the Demon Race leadership to believe it was real.

Of course, Qin Jiuge knew Luo Xuerou would definitely pass this intelligence to Agul.

To make the act more realistic, Qin Jiuge even arranged several "accidental" opportunities for Luo Xuerou to "unintentionally" discover this fake intelligence.

Each time, he would act completely oblivious, continuing to discuss these fake plans at high-level Human Race meetings.

Seeing the excitement and joy that Luo Xuerou could less and less conceal in her eyes, Qin Jiuge felt only cold killing intent in his heart.

Late one night a month later, Qin Jiuge sensed Luo Xuerou quietly sneaking out of the Human Race's defensive lines again.

This time, he didn't just follow from afar with a breaking heart as in the Original Owner's memory.

Instead, he followed silently behind her. With his stealth methods, even the most sensitive Demon Race sentries could not detect him.

He witnessed with his own eyes the meeting between Luo Xuerou and Agul in a hidden valley on the Demon Race border.

Agul indeed had a good appearance: tall and handsome, with silver hair and purple eyes—typical characteristics of Demon Race nobility.

He tenderly pulled Luo Xuerou into his arms, speaking sweet words with deep affection.

"My human rose, you are truly beautiful today."

Agul stroked Luo Xuerou's cheek.

"That intelligence was too valuable. My father is very satisfied."

"He said that once I formally inherit the throne, you will be the most noble princess of the Demon Race."

Luo Xuerou leaned into his arms, her eyes full of obsession:

"As long as I can be with you, I am willing to do anything."

"I've had enough of the human side. They are crude and backward; they don't deserve to live on this land at all."

"Soon, you won't have to."

Agul smiled:

"Based on the defense map you provided last time, we are already preparing a surprise attack."

"Once we take the Human Race's last few strongholds, you can formally convert into a demon."

"Really?"

Luo Xuerou was so excited her voice trembled.

"Then... then when can we hold the wedding?"

"I want a grand Demon Race wedding, to let everyone know that I am your princess."

"Soon, my love, soon."

Agul kissed her forehead.

"But before that, there is one last piece of intelligence I need you to get..."

"The defense loopholes of the Human Race's supreme command, and the details of the counterattack plan they are preparing."

"I've already got it!"

Luo Xuerou excitedly took a scroll of parchment from her bosom.

"I stole a look at this from Qin Jiuge."

"They plan to launch a surprise attack from the eastern canyon in two months. Here is the troop deployment map..."

Qin Jiuge watched this scene coldly from the shadows.

That so-called counterattack plan was a death trap he had meticulously prepared.

Once the Demon Race deployed according to this plan, what awaited them would be total annihilation.

But at this moment, he was more interested in something else.

"By the way, Agul..."

Luo Xuerou suddenly lowered her head somewhat shyly.

"I... my period didn't come this month. I suspect... I might be pregnant."

Agul's eyes lit up:

"Really? Our child?"

"Mm."

Luo Xuerou nodded with a red face.

"I want to give birth to him, a child with noble Demon Race blood."

"I don't want him to have a single trace of lowly human blood on him, so the conversion ceremony must be completed before I start showing."

"Of course!"

Agul held her tight.

"I'll go back and arrange it right away."

"As soon as you bring the last piece of intelligence next time, we will immediately perform the conversion ceremony."

The two lingered for a while longer before Luo Xuerou reluctantly returned to the Human Race's defensive line.

Qin Jiuge didn't follow immediately. Instead, he stayed where he was, watching Agul's departing back, the corners of his mouth curling into a cruel smile.

A child... very good.

In the Original Owner's memory, that bastard later became a new generation general of the Demon Race, his hands stained with human blood.

This time, it won't happen.

When there was one month left before the great war, Qin Jiuge began to implement the second stage of his plan.

He secretly met with the true high-level leadership of the Human Race,

Those generals and sages who had been betrayed by Luo Xuerou and tragically murdered in the original plot.

In an absolutely secure secret room, Qin Jiuge laid out all the evidence:

Records of Luo Xuerou's illicit affair with Agul, the content of the intelligence she leaked, the Demon Race items she had hidden,

And even several scenes of their secret meetings recorded by Qin Jiuge with a Spell-based Memory Stone.

"This... this is impossible!"

The Human Race High Priest looked in disbelief at the image in the Memory Stone where Luo Xuerou was flatteringly offering the Human Race's defense map to Agul.

"Luo Xuerou is a child I watched grow up. How could she..."

"The facts are right before your eyes."

Qin Jiuge said calmly.

"She has been bewitched by the Demon Race and is prepared to betray the entire Human Race. Not only that, she is also carrying the child of the Demon Race's Young Lord."

The room was deathly silent.

The faces of several high-level Human Race leaders were ashen, their eyes filled with both anger and deep sorrow.

"She must be executed immediately!"

An old general slammed the table and stood up.

"Such a traitor deserves to die!"

"No."

Qin Jiuge shook his head.

"Direct execution is too easy on her."

"Furthermore, we need to use her to pass more fake intelligence, turning their own schemes against them to deal a heavy blow to the Demon Race in one go."

"You mean..."

"I have already prepared a full set of fake intelligence; she will pass these to the Demon Race."

Qin Jiuge spread out a map and began to explain his plan in detail.

"The Demon Race will deploy their forces according to our design. At that time, we will set ambushes here, here, and here..."

The plan was detailed and thorough, with every detail considered.

From initial shock to later deep thought, the Human Race high-level leadership eventually all agreed to Qin Jiuge's plan.

"But Jiuge,"

The High Priest looked at him with concern.

"You and she grew up together. Won't executing this plan be too... for you?"

"It is precisely because I grew up with her that I know even more clearly how unforgivable her betrayal is."

Qin Jiuge's gaze was as cold as a blade.

"Please rest assured, I know what to do."

Over the next few weeks, Qin Jiuge continued to maintain a surface friendship with Luo Xuerou.

He even deliberately showed special concern for her at certain moments, which made Luo Xuerou even more convinced that Qin Jiuge still had lingering feelings for her.

One evening, Luo Xuerou took the initiative to find Qin Jiuge, her eyes carrying a hint of urgency:

"Jiuge, I heard... I heard that demons who convert into human form can completely hide their Devilish Qi. Is it true?"

Qin Jiuge's heart stirred, knowing she was preparing for the upcoming conversion ceremony.
