Chapter Twelve: The Demon Clan's Eldest Princess, Bai Yue, Is Born

Maple Yun gently shook her head and continued, “I will impart the laws I have comprehended to you. If, with the aid of these laws, you still cannot complete the tasks I set forth…”

As she spoke, her gaze instantly turned stern, sweeping over the three brothers in one sharp glance.

The next moment, the three brothers—Feng Xiu and his siblings—stood up abruptly and bowed deeply to Maple Yun, showing their respect as juniors.

“We will certainly accomplish the goals set by our ancestral forebear!” they spoke in unison.

Maple Yun smiled slightly, revealing what she considered a gentle smile. “Very well, train hard. I have high hopes for you all~”

“Yes!” the three responded.

Poor brothers—they were scolded by Maple Yun so thoroughly that they didn’t even dare to retort.

At the same time, their curiosity deepened: just how powerful was the Divine Ancestor?

...

Several months passed quickly.

During this time, the Magic Emperor’s Palace was far from idle; everyone was busy preparing a grand wedding of the century for the Magic God Emperor and Bai Lingxuan.

News of Feng Xiu’s impending coronation as Empress also spread.

To avoid the Priest Sanctuary discovering Bai Lingxuan’s true identity, Feng Xiu kept her appearances limited and revealed little information about her.

Others only knew the Empress was named Lingxuan and was very beautiful.

When the news reached Zhen Nan Pass, it aroused no suspicion among the Priests or others.

After all, there were countless people named Lingxuan in this world—how could their sanctuary’s favored daughter marry the Magic God Emperor?

Their sanctuary’s pride had clearly married a genius of the Light attribute named Feng Ling!

Soon, the day of Bai Lingxuan’s childbirth arrived.

Inside the Magic Emperor’s Chamber.

Feng Xiu and Bai Lingxuan were well prepared, and the delivery went smoothly. Before long, a baby girl was born.

Moreover, as a seventh-rank powerhouse, Bai Lingxuan had remarkably recovered her strength within just fifteen minutes after giving birth.

Of course, Maple Yun was present as well.

How could she miss witnessing the birth of Bai Yue?

At that moment, the newborn lay nestled in Bai Lingxuan’s arms.

The baby was exquisitely delicate and adorable. Though still tiny, one could already see a seventy-percent resemblance to Bai Lingxuan, like a miniature version of her.

On the baby’s forehead was a sun-shaped demonic pattern—a mark symbolizing her royal lineage of the Defiant Demon Dragon clan.

Naturally, as a newborn infant, she had no control over her demonic energy yet, but a faint aura of demonic bloodline radiated subtly from her.

At a glance, Maple Yun discerned a subtle clue.

...

“This child is intriguing—a half-human, half-demon hybrid. The human bloodline and the Defiant Demon Dragon bloodline are perfectly balanced within her, granting her a constitution that harbors both Light and Dark attributes.”

“I shall first stabilize the forces of Light and Dark within her. I believe her future will be extraordinary!”

As she spoke, Maple Yun touched the baby’s forehead.

A flicker of golden and black light shimmered, merging into the infant’s body and stabilizing the powers of Light and Darkness within her.

Subsequently, the demonic pattern on the baby’s forehead gradually faded, sinking beneath her pristine skin. The uniquely demonic spiritual aura around her was also discreetly concealed by Maple Yun.

The tiny infant seemed to recognize who was the real benefactor among these three, reaching out and grasping Maple Yun’s finger with a bright smile.

A faint smile curved Maple Yun’s lips; she found herself growing fond of this child.

Feng Xiu was already accustomed to Maple Yun’s mystical methods.

He sincerely said, “Thank you.”

“This child is my junior after all; it is only right that I do this,” Maple Yun replied calmly.

Now, Maple Yun was somewhat curious about what kind of constitution Long Haochen would have at birth, given that Bai Yue possessed a constitution that combined Light and Darkness.

Feng Xiu picked up the little baby gently and spoke softly, “Lingxuan, what shall we name her?”

Bai Lingxuan thought for a moment but then looked at Maple Yun. “Sister, please give her a name.”

She too understood who was the true benefactor within the Magic Emperor’s Palace.

The true benefactor was undoubtedly the Demon Clan Divine Ancestor, Maple Yun.

In short, grasping Maple Yun’s favor was always the right choice!

Feng Xiu:...

The world may isolate me and mock me.

Without hesitation, Maple Yun answered, “Yue, as in ‘moon,’ and ‘divine pearl’—let’s call her Bai Yue.”

“Very well, let her be Bai Yue,” Feng Xiu said gently.

As for the family name, Feng Xiu was indifferent.

After all, once he became the Magic God Emperor, he would be universally known by the name Feng Xiu.

As the eldest princess of the Demon Clan, Bai Yue naturally had the qualifications to vie for that position!

Gazing at Bai Yue’s radiant smile, Maple Yun also smiled.

As the Demon Clan’s eldest princess, Bai Yue bore great responsibilities; she must not be weak or fragile but must possess overwhelming combat power!

Maple Yun would raise Bai Yue to become a great heroine!

...

One month later.

The wedding between Feng Xiu and Bai Lingxuan within the Demon Clan was nearly ready.

This wedding was an unprecedented grand event in the Demon Clan, demonstrating the Magic God Emperor’s meticulousness.

The Seventy-two Pillar Demon Gods and leaders from all clans—the usually aloof and powerful demon elites—had all come to offer their congratulations and blessings to the Magic God Emperor Feng Xiu and the Empress Bai Lingxuan.

Soon, the century wedding of the Magic God Emperor and Empress began!

Inside the Magic Emperor’s Main Hall.

The wedding was arranged according to the traditions of the Defiant Demon Dragon clan.

The entire palace was adorned with countless priceless decorations, but the dominant color scheme remained black.

At the center of the palace, before the throne, Maple Yun had already taken her place.

For this grand ceremony, she wore an exquisite black robe, faintly shimmering with purple light.

This robe was the same one she had worn when breaking open the coffin, nearly identical in style to the first Magic God Emperor’s royal robe, exuding an aura of mystery and darkness.

As the Divine Ancestor of the Demon Clan, it was most fitting for her to crown Bai Lingxuan as Empress.

Below her stood the assembled powerful figures from various clans.

The Moon Demon God and Star Demon God stood solemnly on her left and right, positioned at the forefront of all demon gods.

All the clan leaders had received the news—they knew Maple Yun was a master possessing a million spirit power, the Divine Ancestor of the Demon Clan.

“We pay homage to the Divine Ancestor!”

Faced with such a divine-level powerhouse, they all knelt respectfully, fearful of committing any offense that might bring punishment.

In this world, strength was everything!

Maple Yun slightly nodded and said calmly, “Rise.”

Only then did the crowd stand, awaiting the commencement of the ceremony.

As the ritual officially began, melodious music resonated, mysterious yet solemn.

Feng Xiu carried Bai Yue in his left arm while holding Bai Lingxuan’s hand with his right, stepping into the Magic Emperor’s Main Hall.

The Magic God Emperor Feng Xiu wore a magnificent battle robe, imposing yet tender.

Bai Lingxuan wore a black gauzy gown befitting an Empress, breathtakingly beautiful.

Of course, to be cautious, Maple Yun had also disguised Bai Lingxuan’s appearance.

When the Magic God Emperor Feng Xiu and Empress Bai Lingxuan appeared, all the demon gods and clan leaders knelt on one knee in respectful salute.

“We pay homage to His Majesty the Magic God Emperor, and to the Empress!”
