Although he did not intend to kill this person, he absolutely would not let him off easily. This person was far too malicious in his intentions, and the Shen family had fallen into such a sorry state today. He must have been stirring up trouble behind the scenes.

Bao Kui’s face flushed with fury. Not only had Chen Yu repeatedly disregarded him, but he had also insulted him verbally. On top of that, his son had been injured by him, so he could no longer contain his temper.

“Boy, you haven’t settled the score for injuring my son yet!”

As Bao Kui spoke, a faint purple light emanated from his body. Had it not been for him being half-naked in the sauna room, it would have been difficult for anyone to notice. Even so, the gentlemen standing nearby saw nothing.

Chen Yu sneered coldly. Indeed, he was a half-demon.

Earlier, when he had first encountered this father and son, he had curiously asked the Dragon King why their eyes differed from those of ordinary people, carrying a hint of purple.

The Dragon King had told him that only demons possessed such eyes, though not all demons had this faint purple hue—some might be red or blue. Ultimately, demons came in various colors and could not be generalized.

But this also indicated that they were only half-demons, as true demons did not reveal such traits. In other words, their ancestors had been demons who had interbred with humans, and their descendants had become half-demon bodies.

Such half-human, half-demon existences generally possessed greater strength than ordinary people, had their own cultivation methods, and lived much longer—two hundred years not being uncommon, though this was already the limit, since they were not true demons. Even with diligent cultivation, they could only be slightly superior to humans.

In contrast, true demons with proper cultivation could live for thousands of years easily, and some with high affinity and comprehension could even become immortals.

This conversation had deepened Chen Yu’s understanding of this world, but thinking about it, since he could cultivate immortals, what was strange about these beings? In the future, the things he would encounter would be even more varied.

Such half-demons were at best the lowest existences in the demon world.

However, as long as they did not offend him, he would not bother with them. But if they dared to provoke him, he would not show them any mercy.

Demons, like humans, had distinctions between good and evil, and he understood this. Therefore, he had not initially acted against the Bao family father and son, as they had not yet committed any heinous crimes worthy of his intervention.

But now it was clearly disrespectful. Demon or not, even a half-demon—unless he gave them a lesson, he would truly think the Shen family could be bullied at will.

So when Bao Kui activated the spiritual energy in his body, Chen Yu directly slashed out a streak of white light to shatter his spell.

Bao Kui’s low-level spiritual energy was not worth absorbing. As for this half-demon, his spiritual energy was very weak; he only possessed a body slightly stronger than ordinary people, greater strength, and no special abilities. Of course, they had one trump card: transformation.

Because the ancestor of Bao Kui and his son was a wolf demon, they could transform into a giant wolf, but that was merely using strength and speed to attack others, which was not worth mentioning in Chen Yu’s eyes at all.

When Chen Yu slashed out that white light, the young lady from the Shen family, Ye Xuan, suddenly turned pale with fright and hurriedly shouted, “Young Master Shen, please show mercy!”

But before her words had even fallen, Bao Kui collapsed, staring at Chen Yu in shock, with deep hatred filling his eyes. This man had actually broken his spell, turning him into an ordinary person; he could not even transform, meaning he had directly turned him from a half-demon into a human—this was the greatest humiliation.

“I will not kill you, but out of consideration for the life your grandfather saved for me back then, I will not kill you. Killing you would be like spitting on Grandfather’s face. So, in the future, do not let me see you father and son again!”

Chen Yu said this with a faint smile, hands behind his back.

At this moment, the few gentlemen nearby were all stunned. How powerful was this young master-in-law of the Shen family? With a wave of his hand, he had crippled Bao Wu, and now with two fingers pointing, he had made Bao Kui a cripple. What kind of skill was this?

Suddenly, they recalled the Chen Immortal Master they had been discussing earlier. Could this person be that Chen Immortal Master?

At this time, Ye Xuan had raised her eyebrows. “Young Master Shen has quite some means. It is not convenient here; can we talk in private?”

Then she instructed people to carry away the Bao family father and son.

Bao Kui stared at Chen Yu with angry eyes. “The Bao family will not let this go!”

Chen Yu only gave him a faint smile. “If your old wolf ancestor comes after me, I might still have some reservations. As for you lot, you are not worth mentioning in my eyes!”

What Chen Yu said was true. If it were such small demons or half-demons, he could destroy them with a wave of his hand. But if it were an old demon who had lived for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, it might really be troublesome. Of course, this was just his current situation. Once he reached the realm of divine abilities, those old demons would not be taken seriously.

Bao Kui’s eyes flickered for a moment. He had not expected that this young master-in-law of the Shen family would immediately reveal his background with those words.

Who exactly was this Shen family young master-in-law? He had been blind to see it. Thinking about it, waves of hatred surged.

The surrounding gentlemen also did not know what to say. Of course, they would not understand.

At this time, the young master kept making eye signals to the younger brother-in-law. He often hung around here and took a conciliatory attitude, hoping to avoid more trouble. This Shen family young master-in-law was hard to deal with. He could only quickly let Shen Chengde come over.

The younger brother-in-law immediately understood and hurriedly ran to find Shen Chengde without even putting on clothes.

Chen Yu did not want to stay here any longer, so he followed Ye Xuan to a hall.

At this time, several young masters had also put on their clothes and come to the hall, as they were very interested in this Shen family young master-in-law.

Soon, Shen Chengde arrived in the hall, disheveled.

“Son-in-law, why did you come?” He had obviously heard the report from the younger brother-in-law and knew his son-in-law had arrived, but he was still very surprised. He thought Chen Yu had come here on purpose because he was interested and wanted to play.

Chen Yu looked at his father-in-law’s appearance and raised an eyebrow. “Come back with me immediately. This place will not be coming here again in the future!”

Shen Chengde was stunned. At this moment, a very charming and beautiful young woman stepped onto the hall with graceful steps.

“Young Master Shen, why are you in such a hurry to come out and see whom?” Her voice was extremely melodious, giving people a tingling sensation.

Shen Chengde gave a fake smile to Chen Yu and introduced, “This is my son-in-law.”

The beautiful young woman had seductive phoenix eyes that shone with colorful light as she looked at Chen Yu, her demeanor charming and seductive. Even the gentlemen beside her could not help but feel dizzy-headed.

Chen Yu suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. “If you dare to approach my father-in-law’s side again, I will make you soul fly away and body perish!”

Because this beautiful young woman was also a half-demon, ordinary people could not withstand her charm. Shen Chengde had obviously been a bit floating in the past few days, and continuing to mix with this half-demon would probably not allow him to keep his old life.

The beautiful young woman was immediately frightened, her face losing color, and she hurriedly shouted, “Young Master Shen, save me!”

Shen Chengde was stunned, not understanding what his son-in-law was doing.

“Good son-in-law, what are you doing? Let the girl go at once.”

The gentlemen nearby were also a bit stunned. This Shen family young master had just crippled the Bao family father and son; now he was going to harm a weak, frail girl?

They looked at that tender, white arm being pinched by the Shen family young master and felt heartache.

Ye Xuan said at this time, with a stern face, “Young Master Shen, you have already crippled the Bao family father and son. Isn’t that enough? Do you have to cause a fatality here?”

Upon hearing this, Shen Chengde’s face was not very good. “Son-in-law, why did you cripple that pair of father and son from the Bao family?”

“Because they were harming you. Was this woman found by them for you?”

As Chen Yu spoke, he forcefully flung the beautiful young woman away, making her fall to the ground. She clutched her wrist and cried pitifully. Her appearance was very touching. Several gentlemen wanted to help her up, but due to the Shen family young master’s imposing manner, they did not dare to step forward.

“Young Master Shen, now that Young Master Shen has seen everything, if there is nothing else, please leave. We do not welcome you here anymore!”

Ye Xuan said this with her clothes fluttering, and a momentum flowed around her.

She had endured and endured; now she could no longer hold back and was about to erupt.

The gentlemen all retreated one after another. This Ye Xuan was a legendary figure who had entered the law, and whoever touched her would suffer.
