Chu Mo fell silent for a moment, then chuckled, "You know about that matter?" He then looked at Qi Xiaoyu and continued, "It's all in the past, just keep the hatred in your heart. By the way, I've thought of a way to deal with the ancestor of the Blood Demon Sect, do you want to hear it?"

Qi Xiaoyu looked at Chu Mo and said softly, "Go ahead."

"Someone like the ancestor of the Blood Demon Sect, with countless methods and powerful strength, if we confront him head-on, we definitely won't be his match. But we could use the Heavenly Tribulation as a way to strike at him!" Chu Mo said.

"Heavenly Tribulation? Are you saying...you want me to go through the tribulation while fighting him?" Qi Xiaoyu's delicate brows furrowed slightly, she was equally intelligent and seemed to sense something amiss from Chu Mo's words.

Chu Mo said cheerfully, "The array I've laid down can hold him off for a long time, enough time for you to undergo the tribulation!"

"What about you?" Qi Xiaoyu's emotions fluctuated, and her eyes even shot out two somewhat eerie glows. The dark forces eroding her had not yet reached their peak, but were constantly affecting her. If it weren't for the Seven-orifice Heart in her body, she probably would have turned unrecognizable by now. However, even under the influence, Qi Xiaoyu's heart remained clear.

"We'll take him on together!" Chu Mo looked at Qi Xiaoyu. "I'm certainly not asking you to run away."

"Really?" Qi Xiaoyu looked at Chu Mo skeptically, frowning her beautiful brows, "Are you really not trying to make me undergo the tribulation and leave this world, to face him alone?"

"We agreed to live and die together," Chu Mo smiled. "It was not easy to see you again, how could I bear to let you leave?"

Qi Xiaoyu's face flushed, she pondered for a moment and said, "Let's see about that matter when the time comes!"

Chu Mo glanced at Qi Xiaoyu, nodded, and thought: Do you think I laid down this array just to trap the ancestor of the Blood Demon Sect? When the time comes...even if you don't want to undergo the tribulation, you won't be able to control yourself! Xiaoyu, I'm sorry, I lied to you. But I really hope you can live well. In fact, this is not really lying. A man should protect his woman. As for myself, I will certainly try my best to protect myself!

"That guy wants to kill me, it won't be that easy!"

"By the way, I also know the Versatile Technique." As Chu Mo spoke, he suddenly transformed into the appearance of an elder of the Elf Clan, and said to Qi Xiaoyu, "Your Highness...how come you are here?"

Qi Xiaoyu exclaimed with a gasp, her eyes wide open in disbelief as she looked at Chu Mo. Meanwhile, the dark aura in her eyes swirled and roiled, clearly shocked by Chu Mo's transformation.

Chu Mo quickly changed back and said, "Don't worry, it's me!"

"You...you...how did you suddenly transform into the appearance of our clan elder? Without any flaw...how is that possible?" Qi Xiaoyu still looked at Chu Mo in disbelief. If it weren't for the fact that they had just exchanged too much information, she could have completely doubted whether it was really Chu Mo she was seeing or if her own mind was playing tricks.

"You know about the five ancestors of the Demon Sect, right? Ever heard of the Versatile Taoist?" Chu Mo looked at Qi Xiaoyu, "I killed him, acquired his Versatile Technique, and even repaired that divine ability a bit."

"Repaired?" Qi Xiaoyu looked at Chu Mo, befuddled.

Chu Mo chuckled, "I can restore any skill to its perfect state."

Qi Xiaoyu gazed at Chu Mo with a dazed expression, clearly struggling to understand.

Chu Mo scratched his head, "In short, this skill might not have been that miraculous in their hands, but in mine, it can enhance the power of the same skill many times over. The stronger the skill, the greater the increase in power!"

"I've heard of the feats of the Versatile Taoist," Qi Xiaoyu said, still unable to conceal her amazement, the impact of the scene she had just witnessed was too great. She couldn't imagine her beloved, having transformed into a woman, could do so without any flaws.

"This is the first time I've transformed into a woman," Chu Mo looked at Qi Xiaoyu seriously, "And for you, I would do it."

"Chu Mo..." Qi Xiaoyu's eyes brimmed with tears as she gazed at Chu Mo, almost lost for words.

At that moment, Chu Mo's eyebrows suddenly lifted lightly, and then he narrowed his eyes, saying in a deep voice, "He's here!"

Following closely, Qi Xiaoyu also sensed the presence through her own means and immediately became nervous.

Chu Mo held Qi Xiaoyu's hand and said, "Don't be afraid! However, I need to transform into that Elf Clan elder we just saw. Remember, don't give us away."

Qi Xiaoyu was slightly startled, then she understood Chu Mo's intention and nodded gently, pursing her lips without saying anything. But in her heart, she was already filled with an intense love that was beyond words. To be protected like this by the man she loved, even death... would be worth it.

Afterwards, Chu Mo transformed himself, turning into the likeness of that Elf Clan elder, even his clothes changed accordingly.

Then, Chu Mo looked at Qi Xiaoyu and urged, "Princess... come back with me? Even if you have activated the dark holy artifact, even if you have turned into a Dark Elf, you are still our princess!"

Qi Xiaoyu was slightly startled again, but then she quickly recovered and shook her head, saying, "No, I have already chosen the dark... I am not going back! Elder, please leave. I want to face the evil Blood Demon Ancestor alone! I don't want the entire Elf Clan to suffer because of me!"

"That won't happen… Our entire Elf Clan will stand firmly by the princess's side, accompanying her through all difficulties!" Chu Mo said.

Qi Xiaoyu's expression was somewhat dazed. The person before her, although identical to the elder of her clan, even the tone was the same. Yet Qi Xiaoyu considered him as Chu Mo, and thus every word he said sounded to her like they were Chu Mo's heartfelt words.

Although she was well aware that if the clan's elder were really there, he would probably say the same.

But if the elder were to say it, Qi Xiaoyu would feel kinship, but if it's Chu Mo, what she felt... was only deep affection!

Chu Mo saw this clearly and couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself: Girl, I hope you can act a little more convincingly, hoping the Blood Demon Ancestor, that bastard, has never been in love! Otherwise, if he ever noticed your different expressions towards me, he would definitely sense something.

"Elder, you should leave," said Qi Xiaoyu, her aura suddenly shifting from a delicate Elf princess to a proud queen in an instant!

Moreover, she was a queen with dark attributes!

With a cold gleam in her eyes, she looked at Chu Mo and said coldly, "This is my own affair, I don't need your pity or sympathy! I disdain to burden you! Even if the entire Elf Clan were combined... they wouldn't be enough for the Blood Demon Ancestor to kill with a flick of a finger! So, stop hindering me here! Go!"

Chu Mo's heart leaped with joy, and he silently praised mentally: Indeed clever!

I nearly died of fright...

This last chapter was... incredibly tough!

My studio by the river is quite peaceful during the day, not many people around, but come midnight, oh my god... it gets eerily silent.

Just as I was writing about the arrival of the Blood Demon Ancestor, damn, all sorts of horror stories filled my mind.

Better I head home quickly, it's half past midnight!

This isn't the first time I've updated ten chapters in a row, but such a terrifying one certainly is. Compared to the eerie howling of the wind outside, mere dizziness and eye soreness felt trivial.

This is the price of not admitting old age… fought out forcibly.
