"Father!"
The main hall of the Moon Demon Palace.
Upon the throne sat a man two meters tall, clad in a long purple robe trimmed with gold, his long hair flowing down his back and held back with a ribbon. His features were exquisitely handsome, almost feminine. He possessed purple eyes with a faint, dark golden light emanating from them, and a faint, crescent-shaped magical mark adorned the center of his forehead. He sat gracefully sideways on the throne, holding a wine cup in one hand.
And this man was none other than the father Yueye spoke of, the Moon Demon God Agares.
Judging solely by appearance, Agares is the most handsome man in the demon race, even surpassing the Demon God Emperor Fengxiu, though their temperaments are quite different.
I heard the cry in the moonlight.
The Moon Demon God Agares's eyes, gleaming with a dark golden light, looked down at the moonlit night as it bowed in greeting.
"You're back. Did you encounter any trouble on the way?"
The Moon Demon God Agares spoke in a very soft tone, so soft that the Moon Night could not detect any emotion in his voice.
"It's alright, it's all been resolved," Yueye replied respectfully.
"Hmm." The Moon Demon God Agares hummed in agreement, swirling the wine in his glass. "Now that you're back, don't go out for a while. Abao has already emerged from the Trial Grounds, and according to Her Majesty's wishes, she hopes you will complete the marriage alliance with Abao as soon as possible."
Upon hearing these words from the Moon Demon God Agares, Yueye's hands involuntarily clenched, and an unyielding killing intent was revealed between her brows.
Agares didn't even look at him, and said softly, "What are you dissatisfied with? You and Abao can be considered childhood sweethearts, you grew up together, and now he is the most talented among the younger generation of demons. If you marry him, it may alleviate the demons' views on your bloodline."
Moonlight loosened her bitten, pale red lips and looked up at the Moon Demon God Agares, as if she had made some kind of decision:

"Father, I already have someone I love. Please tell His Majesty that my bloodline is inferior and I am unworthy to marry Prince Abao!"
"My beloved—" The Moon Demon God Agares looked at the moonlit night with a hint of suspicion.
"Yes!" Moonlight said decisively.
Why didn't you say so before?
Seemingly sensing the displeasure in the Moon Demon God Agares's tone, Yueye knelt down and said, "Father, I used to want to share your burdens. If a marriage alliance could dispel His Majesty's fear of you, I would naturally be willing to help you. But these past few days, I've come to a realization: I don't want to marry someone I don't love!"
The Moon Demon God Agares stared at the kneeling Moon Night for a long time before calming his emotions and asking, "Which demon god's successor is he?"
Seeing that the Moon Demon God Agares' anger had subsided, Yueye suppressed her fear and said, "Father, he is not a demon, but a human named Lin Feng!"
boom!
As soon as Yueye finished speaking, the wine glass in the hand of the Moon Demon God Agares was crushed, and red wine dripped down his palm onto his clothes.
At the same time, the two guards outside the palace were also filled with shock the moment they heard Yueye's words.
Before the two could make a move, two beams of purple moonlight struck them directly between the eyebrows, turning them into two cold, lifeless bodies that slowly collapsed.
After doing all this, Agares slammed his hand on the armrest of the throne.
His tone turned icy, and he said coldly, "Which Lin Feng are you talking about?"
Under the moonlight, he felt the murderous intent emanating from the Moon Demon God Agares.
Suppressing her fear, Yueye looked directly at the Moon Demon God Agares and said, "Father, I know that you are not an extreme advocate of demonism. You are determined to gain the recognition of the demon race for human-demon hybrids. However, it is because of your compassion that His Majesty fears that you will one day turn against us, which is why he agreed to let me marry Abao."
"Didn't you ever consider taking another path?"
Upon hearing Yueye's words, the Moon Demon God Agares surprisingly did not get angry. Instead, he calmly asked, "When did you discover that?"
Hearing this, Yueye breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that her gamble had paid off.
After a moment of silence, Yueye slowly said, "I had my suspicions when you fully supported me in establishing the Yueye Chamber of Commerce."
"Especially from the moment His Majesty began sending some secret guards to the Moon Demon Palace from time to time, I guessed that His Majesty seemed to be wary of you at every turn —"
The Moon Demon God Agares took out another glass of wine and slowly asked, "What is the other path you mentioned?"
"Father, the Lin Feng I'm talking about is the one you're thinking of—the human who can command gods, the one wanted by the demons, the one who forced back the one standing at the top of the demon race!"
"He promised me that he would build a world where humans and demons coexist, and that human-demon hybrids would no longer be considered outsiders! Human-demon hybrids would not be inferior to any other race!"
"Whether what he said is true or not."
"With his talent and strength, he will definitely have a significant voice in the human camp in the future. If we can invest in him as much as possible before he fully matures, our Moon Demon Clan will surely have a place in the Holy Demon Continent!"
Upon hearing Yueye's words, the Moon Demon God Agares asked, "You trust him that much?"
Instead of directly answering the question from the Moon Demon God Agares, Yueye took out a recording stone, which showed the battle scene between her, Leng Xiao, Sheng Cai'er, and Wang Yuanyuan.
Seeing the surprise in Agares's eyes, Yueye added, "Father, as you can see, according to him, Leng Xiao and I are the chosen ones. I can feel that he values us highly. I've even had contact with that deity; she's a very pure deity. This is our chance to break free from His Majesty's control!"
Moonlight revealed without reservation the story of Lin and Alicia searching for a successor to the mark.
After learning about Lin Feng and Alicia's situation, the Moon Demon God Agares remained silent for a long time: "Since he helped you resolve the crisis in Narik Province, he must have already entered the demon territory."
"Send him to see me. I want to meet this kid myself."
"If he truly is the one who can break the deadlock, I might consider it—"
"However, don't even think about leaving the Moon Demon Palace these next few days. My good brother's two spies are dead, which might arouse his suspicion."
"I will consider Abao's engagement."
"Go down."
Upon hearing these words from the Moon Demon God Agares, the tension in the moonlight finally eased.
After returning to her residence, Yueye summoned two trusted confidants. After a brief conversation, she learned of the recent unusual events in Yake Province and quickly located the movements of Lin Feng and his group.
Yueye quickly finished writing the letter and sent the two of them to deliver it to Lin Feng.
