Chu Mo gazed at the last word, his whole person stunned there, he even had some disbelief that all these words Qin Lan had said were true. He quietly handed the handscroll to Bian Kaiyu beside him.

Bian Kaiyu received it with a puzzled look and quickly skimmed through it. In the end, he too was shocked. He murmured, "Is this... is this true?"

Although they were in a safe spot within the arrays, after reading the handscroll, Chu Mo immediately became more vigilant. He directly summoned the Chaos Furnace, letting down billions of strands of chaos energy, isolating themselves from the outside world. Then, he looked at Bian Kaiyu, "How credible do you think it is?"

Bian Kaiyu tugged at the corner of his mouth, "They say that a dying man's words are good, especially when it concerns his family's secrets... I think the credibility is extremely high. Right, didn't he mention that he had a jade slip on him? You may as well take it, and then I'll have a look… even if there is some conspiracy, it doesn't matter."

Chu Mo shook his head, "I'll look myself!"

Saying so, he walked over to Qin Lan's side again, found the jade slip on him, and then walked back.

Bian Kaiyu watched Chu Mo, wanting to say something, but Chu Mo waved his hand, "I do not have the habit of asking those around me to take life-threatening risks for me."

A trace of emotion flitted through Bian Kaiyu's eyes.

Chu Mo emitted a stream of mental power and inserted it into the jade slip. He did not perceive any danger, nor did the Sky-eye Mirror give him any hints.

Subsequently, Chu Mo's divine sense entered the jade slip, and he began to watch.

The array diagrams within were entirely different from depending on the Technique of Energy Observation and the reminders from the Sky-eye Mirror to avoid dangerous spots. In these diagrams, all the dangerous points were clearly visible. The Demon Clan member who had taken possession of Qin family's ancestor, in order to gain the trust of the powerful old ancestors of the Qin family, did not tamper with the array diagrams at all.

Actually, this was a scheme out in the open, a plot to calculatedly expose you. If discovered, the scheme would naturally fall apart. Unfortunately, at the time, the Qin family had put all their efforts into guarding against the possible retaliation from the Chu Clan. They never imagined that the old man of the Chu family was magnanimous beyond their wildest thoughts; nor that the biggest problem would come from within their own family.

Now, Chu Mo finally understood why Qin Xiaotian harbored such hatred for the people of the Chu Clan, why those of the Qin family were now so furiously striking out against the Chu Clan. It turned out they had attributed all their misfortunes to the Chu Clan. They must have felt that if it had not been for the need to guard against the Chu Clan's retaliation back then, they would never have set up those arrays, and without setting up those arrays… none of the subsequent events would have happened.

One could say that the Qin family members, who had their souls branded by the Demon Clan… their humanity had long been thoroughly twisted!

No wonder Qin Lan, who still had a conscience and limits deep down, sought out an outsider who found the handscroll to eradicate the Qin family. Because such a Qin family was no longer a part of mankind's faction, they had long since... become Demon Clan members, and had turned to demons!

"How is it?" Bian Kaiyu looked at Chu Mo and asked softly.

Chu Mo nodded, "Compared it with the safe spots we passed through, this set of array diagrams doesn't have any issues. It's real!"

Excitement flashed across Bian Kaiyu's face, but then a look of concern appeared in his eyes, "The Demon Clan… this mysterious and powerful race that comes and goes without a trace, are they about to start afflicting the human world again?"

Chu Mo looked at Bian Kaiyu, "How much do you know about the Demon Clan?"

Bian Kaiyu said, "I don't know much, but I've heard Luo Jue mention something about the Demon Clan. The Demon Clan has also had Heavenly Geniuses who stepped onto the heavenly road and met Luo Jue, proposing a cooperation to strike down all cultivators from the Heavenly Realm on the heavenly road."

Chu Mo couldn't help but inhale sharply at that thought, finding it hard to believe that the Demon Clan could be so vile. If Luo Jue agreed to their proposal, wouldn't that mean that every three thousand years, the Heavenly Realm would lose a large number of its young elite? In such a case, it might not take tens of thousands of years for the entire Heavenly Realm to decline!

Because outsiders would never know it was a transaction between the Demon Clan and the natives of the heavenly road; everyone would think those people simply lacked in their cultivation…

Bian Kaiyu continued, "Luckily, Luo Jue did not agree to their offer. He told that member of the Demon Clan, 'Though I have no regard for the practitioners from the Heavenly Realm, we are after all of the same race; we are humans, you are demons. How could I possibly cooperate with you to destroy the foundation of the Human Clan?'"

Chu Mo nodded, "For his words, should we battle again in the future, I'll spare his life."

Bian Kaiyu's mouth twitched as he thought to himself, can you even enter the heavenly road again? In three thousand years... you'll likely have become a high-ranking emperor. How could you enter then?

But Bian Kaiyu didn't say anything else and went on, "Later, Luo Jue told us that the Demon Clan is terrifying. They don't enter the heavenly road because they have their own cultivation methods that don't require the road's enhancement. They also don't wish to expose themselves too early. Ten thousand years ago, they were driven back by the Chu Clan line, too scared to enter the Yanhuang domain, but today, a hundred thousand years later, they are probably planning to make a move."

"That's unbelievable…" Chu Mo sighed. He thought of Qi Xiaoyu, the Blood Demon Ancestor, and the claws that the Blood Demon Ancestor had hidden in the Heavenly Realm. Now, with the terrifying Qin family in the mix, cu abruptly broke out in a cold sweat. He suddenly felt that the entire Heavenly Realm, perhaps only superficially calm, was already turbulent underneath!

The Qin family's sudden rise forced many top influential families and sects in the Heavenly Realm to take their side, but those people... didn't know at all that they weren't really siding with the Qin family but had become accomplices of the Demon Clan!

This was truly a grave matter. If word got out, it would shake the heavens!

In comparison, the Immortal Domain, though fearsome, was only trying to seal off this world and at most... they just wanted to kill him, Chu Mo. However, they had not thought of destroying the entire Yanhuang domain.

But the Demon Clan... they aimed to plot against the entire Yanhuang domain!

If they succeeded, then all humans within the Yanhuang domain would undoubtedly face a tragic fate.

"We can't let the Demon Clan succeed; otherwise, I fear the entire Heavenly Realm, Immortal Realm, Spirit Realm… all the Human Clan will face a great calamity. The Yanhuang domain will turn into a true purgatory," Bian Kaiyu sighed. "Back on the heavenly road, I never felt much about these things, but being in the Heavenly Realm and seeing the Qin family… and now knowing this news, I suddenly realize the situation has become extremely critical."

Chu Mo took a deep breath, then thought for a moment, organizing his words in his mind. Afterward, he sent messages to Yiyi, Liu Yun, and Chu Qing. He then put away the messaging tablet and looked at Bian Kaiyu, "Are you afraid of dying?"

Bian Kaiyu looked at Chu Mo, his eyes filled with calmness, and smiled, nodding his head, "Afraid, how could I not be? But since I've already died once, and suddenly finding out that I, old Bian, might become a hero for all of the Human Clan... compared to that, death doesn't seem so frightening anymore!"

At that moment, Chu Mo glanced at World-Dominating Biao sitting beside them and said softly, "World-Dominating Biao, you can leave. I'll return the strand of divine sense to you... I don't want to drag you into this."

World-Dominating Biao rolled its eyes. It had learned from the conversation what had happened and said with a sneer, "Master, you underestimate me. Do you think I, Lord Biao, am afraid of death? How could I miss out on such an event? Tell me, how do we take them down?"
