Who exactly is he?

A common Reincarnator?

The Guard Commander had secretly observed him for a long time, this fellow who almost changed the world; initially, everyone thought he was merely a rather outstanding Reincarnator. Of course... there were also suspicions that he was Pu YunChuan himself.

But later incidents had proven that he was not...

Then, as a common Reincarnator, how could he know so much information, and why was he so powerful?

At this moment, the Guard Commander felt ten thousand times unwilling in his heart; he couldn’t understand, strength was not something that could be achieved by mere intelligence, reaching the level of King’s Perfect Circle was easy to say, but in reality, it wasn’t that simple.

Many Reincarnators relied on their bloodline talents and information to grow rapidly; very few could calm down and solidify their foundation because spending so much effort on solidifying the foundation was not as useful as others who focused on advancing to a higher realm.

But at a very high realm, such as the Venerable Ones like Kagura, who had reached an impasse in this world, when facing opponents of the same level, wanting an advantage, and to be able to keep up the moment an opportunity arises, it’s very important to have a solid foundation.

After the first Reincarnation, many powerful members in the guilds realized this issue, and they began to seek ways to solidify their once shaky foundations. The best method is to be reborn and start anew when the Spiritual Energy is sealed; this requires great courage and aptitude.

Very few in the entire Four Major Guilds dared to do this because if one could not return to their previous realm, their position would quickly be replaced by others, and even those who have the courage, very few could solidify their foundations perfectly.

King’s Perfect Circle is even less common; as far as he knew, in the entire Four Major Guilds, less than ten had achieved this step.

That Sparrow Bee is strong, right? But his strength lies in his bloodline talents; in terms of foundation, he’s not even as good as the two siblings of the Siao Family, who haven’t lived for a century.

Perfect Circle is something that requires years of accumulation, unless one is like the Siao siblings, geniuses with a huge Destiny bonus, having lived nearly three Eras, he had only seen the Siao siblings achieve Perfect Circle within a century.

This person before him... is definitely not an ordinary Reincarnator.

"I... who exactly am I?" At this moment, King of Qin, who nearly had victory in his grasp, revealed a sinister smile, his eyes bizarre, yet also carrying a trace of madness: "To be honest... I myself am not very clear!"

"What do you mean by that?" The Guard Commander, now under the other’s control, felt his blood draining rapidly; he knew his Ancestor Blood Body was being absorbed by the other party.

His death was inevitable, but he at least wanted to know who he had fallen to.

"Guard Commander Sir might not remember this junior." Chen Qing said with a smile: "This ’junior’ is not a modest title, do you remember, when you first came to the Ancient Demon Clan, how I addressed you?"

Just arrived...

The Guard Commander’s pupils dilated sharply, he felt it—suddenly, a very familiar aura emerged from the person behind him.

Princess Ziyue couldn’t help but widen her eyes.

At this moment, the eyes of King of Qin were blood red, isn’t this a characteristic of the Ancient Demon Clan?

"Are you... an Ancient Demon?" Princess Ziyue was genuinely shocked this time.

She had considered many possibilities for King of Qin’s identity, but she never thought that King of Qin would be an Ancient Demon...

And if King of Qin was an Ancient Demon...

She had never heard of any Reincarnator being an Ancient Demon; the Ancient Demon Clan was extremely sensitive to Reincarnators and had mastered a method to track Reincarnators even before the Sorcerer Dynasty.

It was impossible for a newborn to blend into the Ancient Demon Clan unnoticed, any that did were sent to the laboratory.

The only possibility is...

"Are you... Qi Gu?" Princess Ziyue almost couldn’t believe herself when she said the name, but besides that... there were no other possibilities.

"Hehehe...." King of Qin covered his face and suddenly laughed, with blood continuously flowing out of his blood-red eyes, his laughter becoming somewhat frenzied.

"After so many years, finally... has someone remembered my name?"

Hearing the admission, the Guard Commander’s pupils suddenly constricted.

Qi Gu...

That descendant of the Ancient Demon Clan who, upon arrival, was already tortured to an unsightly extreme?

Of course, he knew who this person was, because it... was said to be the first Ancient Demon that consumed a Reincarnator!

Chen Qing also paused, having heard this name before; Princess Ziyue had mentioned... the Ancient Demon devoured Pu YunChuan...

"I remember... you died!" the Guard Commander said coldly.

He remembered that shortly after he had arrived among the Ancient Demons, this young man had died, supposedly from not being able to withstand the torture of the experiments.

However, at the time, the Ancient Demon high-ranking officials did not care much, as they had plenty of other Reincarnators among their captives, from whom they could extract information.

It was only later that they learned that the person Qi Gu had parasitized was of the utmost importance, but by then it was too late.

As the era of Spiritual Energy resurgence was approaching, the young Princess Ziyue proposed the Sorcerer Dynasty plan, aiming to control the human dynasties and attract new Reincarnators to the Royal Capital on a large scale.

After identifying a truly important figure, Princess Ziyue then put forth an integration plan.

And as for Qi Gu... no one mentioned him again.

"I did die, sort of..." the King of Qin chuckled: "At the brink of death, I chose integration. Since the Ancient Demon’s aura disappears during the process, plus the body I was in indeed reached its limit, they believed I had died."

"I remember being discarded somewhere in this world, right? Fortunately, I didn’t perish completely. At a crucial moment, I encountered a benefactor, didn’t I?"

"Benefactor..." Princess Ziyue’s pupils constricted; before she could react, a pale, enormous face slowly emerged behind the King of Qin.

"I had thought... you were just an insignificant bug, but I misjudged..." the pale face looked at the King of Qin, its smile chilling to the bone.

"I should thank my senior for giving me such an opportunity," the King of Qin said with a slight smile.

Chen Qing watched and roughly guessed what was happening.

So that’s how it is...

A Reincarnator, unlucky to have been parasitized by an Ancient Demon, foolishly chose to report explosive information to the higher-ups right away, not expecting to end up as a torture subject for experiments.

Having been deemed dead and worthless, not even his corpse was treated properly; it was discarded in the Demon Void Realm. His soul probably couldn’t reincarnate unless his luck was good enough to meet the monster before him.

"You’ve done well..." The pale face said with a smile, nodding: "Back then, you said that if I saved you and let you return to the Mortal World, you could create unimaginable value for me. I found you intriguing then. You claimed you could snatch the Guard Commander’s body for me.

I wondered how such a pitiful insect could achieve that, yet indeed. .. you are different."

"Senior flatters me."

Chen Qing felt a chill down his spine.

He knew some high-ranking humans were secretly collaborating with the King of Qin; but whether they were aware that beneath this King of Qin’s human skin lurked a terrifying Ancient Demon?

What could possibly happen if he took control of Digital City?

Humans aiming to control everything with technology; could there be anything more like a backlash from technology than this?

"This Ancestor Blood Body, as per our agreement, should it not be given to me?" the pale face said with a smile.

"Yes..." the King of Qin nodded: "There is only one thing I want."

"Speak..."

The King of Qin pointed at Chen Qing: "His body!"

Chen Qing: "....."
