----

After the human nobles finally responded and fought against the demon race, a tragedy of blood and sacrifices occurred. The demon race was brutal by nature, and even with the Demon Emperor's suppression, these animals spent all their lives following the cruel laws of nature. All the powerful demons reached their position by killing each other, so how could these lazy and entitled nobles be a match for them? Nôv(el)B\\jnn

In the first six months of this battle, 90% of the nobles died at the hands of the demon race. One of the most tragic causes was the Innate Humans. Wang Wei created 129,600 of them, and in the current era, about 110,000 of them still survive. However, in the past six months, only 18,000 Innate Humans survived.

The human race bled in this war. However, with this tragedy comes strength and stability. The surviving nobles and pioneers became the pillars of the human race. Through war, bloodshed, and the spirit of sacrifice, these people became unparalleled warriors and the backbone of their races. After this baptism of war, the human race changed. They knew they were not the highest predators they once believed to be and strived to do whatever was necessary to survive and establish themselves at the top of the pyramid.

Fusi, their most powerful warrior, truly matured after the sixth month. He always had a heart of gold, so seeing his fellow humans suffer so tragically affected him the most. He wanted to become powerful and end this war, but he soon discovered that one man could not win this war. He made a breakthrough in the third month of this fight and slaughtered everywhere. However, the demon races sent 2 of their 10 Demon Kings, and they were equal to Fusi in terms of realm and strength.

At that point, the human race despaired — especially after knowing the Demon Race was even more powerful. Luckily, Fusi proved worthy of the title [Martial Ancestor]. After several months of fighting and learning, he killed one of the Demon Kings and severely injured the other.

While the human race was sublimating through war, the Fiengods were leaving their cocoons one after another. Xun Junyao felt relieved that she finally had made the crucial first step in developing her race. For her turn, she created a secret realm before luring Pan and many of the clan's Elders into it.

The secret realm contained an inheritance, and after experiencing it, Pan finally made up for his lack of origin, and the other members sublimated their cultivation. However, this was not the primary goal of this move. A gray and dull table stood at the center of this secret realm, and after the Fiendgod reached it, they saw a vision of a race calling themselves the Chaos Demon Gods.

They saw the rise and fall of this powerful race. At their pinnacle, the current Fiendgod paled compared to the Chaos Demon Gods. The Fiendgods were born noble, and they knew it. However, their noble birth also paled compared to the Chaos Demon Gods. However, despite how mighty that clan was, they were still destroyed.

Pan and the elders were scared after experiencing that vision. After returning home, they immediately create three fundamental precepts and taboos that all members of the clan must live by: There is always a sky beyond the sky. It's taboo to think you're the best. We are born noble, but that does not mean you can rely on your status to live a comfortable life. Laziness and complacency are the second taboo. Never underestimate anyone. All races—no matter how weak—have the potential to reach the top of Heaven and Earth. Underestimating any race due to their birth is the third taboo.

Pan and the elders felt the Chaos Demon God's fate was a warning from Heaven of what would happen to their clan, so they used these precepts as the foundation of their rise and prosperity. From that on, there is no such thing as a Fiendgod that relies on its bloodline to grow slowly. From birth, everyone must experience a strict training regiment to ensure their full potential is developed.

'She knows about the Chaos Demon God?' Wang Wei thought. From what Wang Wei deduced, knowledge about the existence of Chaos Demon Gods was purposely erased by someone, probably Grand Dao. The fact that there is any news information whatsoever is a testament to how powerful the Chaos Demon Gods were. However, only a few top Paragons will know of their existence and cannot even share it with people of lower cultivation realms or strengths.

'How deep is this woman's spy intelligence?' Wang Wei wondered. He was amazed. Compared to her, his Fate Shadow Guard….He shook his head not to think about it. 'Maybe I can ask her for help gathering rare information.' However, Wang Wei removed this idea from his thoughts. He and Xun Junyao were neither friends nor acquaintances, so why would she help him? However, Wang Wei considered becoming business partners to trade information and so on.

'It seems that I need to deepen my karma and involvement with her, so this might be a good approach,' Wang Wei analyzed.

"Lady Xun, can I ask you a somewhat personal question?"

Xun Junyao was surprised that he took the initiative to speak to her. She smiled, instantly illuminating the room, and said: "As long as you don't speak so formally and address me as Lady Xun."

"No problem," Wang Wei answered. Since he wanted to do business with her, it was no problem to become familiar with her. Maybe they can even become acquaintances and, eventually, friends.

"How good is your information network?" Wang Wei asked.

"That is an interesting question," Xun Junyao muttered. "How to answer this? It's probably the best in the world."

"Oh?" Wang Wei was intrigued by her confidence.

"I know it sounds like I'm bragging, but it's the truth," she explained. "And despite having this position, it doesn't mean I deserve it."

"Can you elaborate?" Wang Wei asked.

"At the beginning of this era, the Overlords and top lineages were forced to close up their mountains, and their intelligence network had to be suspended; to be precise, they could not operate efficiently under the light.

"I used this opportunity to rise. More importantly, I made a bargain with them."

"Regarding their network?" Wang Wei asked, thinking of something incredible.

"That's right," Xun Junyao nodded. "It was easier for me to act openly and in the shadow than them, so I became the intermediary for their networks, allowing them to bypass the blockade of the moons and suns."

"When you say them, how many are we talking about?"

"About 80%."

Wang Wei took a deep breath. He did not expect her to be such a terrifying woman. What does it mean to be the intelligence distributor to 80% of all the top lineages of the world? This means there is little that Xun Junyao wishes to know that she cannot. Of course, Xun Junyao understood that she needed a certain level of propriety. If she started to delve into the secrets of these factions, not only would their cooperation stop, but they would do everything possible to eliminate her.

"What's with that look?" Xun Junyao asked.

"I'm reconsidering whether I made the right choice," Wang Wei replied seriously. "I only need to sacrifice my dignity and body, and I will have the most beautiful woman in the world and such an intelligent network. No matter how you look at it, I'm not losing in this situation."

Xun Junyao was shocked before covering her mouth to laugh: "You're the first man I've met who openly admits he wishes to rely on me instead of providing the world to me."

"I'm just telling the truth."

Xun Junyao shook her head. She knew a person like him had their pride and would never do such a thing. Little did she know that if her surname were Wu instead of Xun, Wang Wei would be shameless enough to sell his body for her spy network.

"So, why did you tell me such an important information? And so casually?" Wang Wei asked.

"Because I felt like it," Xun Junyao replied casually, which was probably a half-truth. "Plus, so what if I did? How many people would believe that such a weak woman like myself has such power? And even if they did, what can they do about it?"

"You're only partially correct about that," Wang Wei replied. "After what you did with Blood Dragon, most people will believe you're that capable."

"That's true," she nodded, smiling, thinking how she had successfully changed her reputation and how the world viewed her. She then focused on Wang Wei: "The real question is: why did you ask me such a question?"

"I was hoping we could cooperate," Wang Wei said. "I value your information, and I'm willing to pay a fair price for it. So, what do you think?"
