The name Xiang Shaoyun was spreading in the Devil Domain because both Yu Caidie and Devil Concubine had issued missions looking for him with saint-grade items as the reward.
His disappearance had thrown them into a panic.
Thus, they urgently wanted to know if he was still alive.

They had already acknowledged Xiang Shaoyun as their man.
They really didn't want anything bad to happen to him.
Unfortunately, they received no useful information.
They started sinking into despair.
Even so, they still refused to believe that Xiang Shaoyun was someone who would die so young.
They madly killed devils to vent their anger.

Little did they know, Xiang Shaoyun was at the lowest layer of the Devil Domain, meeting the Nether Monarch at the most mysterious Imperial Nether Palace.

”Human blood and human name.
You are 29 this year, right? ” said Nether Monarch.

Xiang Shaoyun was astonished.
”H-how did you know? ”

Right after asking that, he thought of something.
Complicated emotions flickered in his eyes as he asked, ”I-is my mother really here? ”

He was confident his father was human.
In that case, it was obvious his imperial nether blood came from his mother.
Since the Nether Monarch knew his age, he probably knew about his mother as well.

”Has your father not told you anything about his past? ” asked the Nether Monarch.

Xiang Shaoyun shook his head blankly, ”No. ”

”Oh, forget it then.
None of that is important.
What matters is the fact that you have our clan's purest bloodline. Even being part human, your blood is still as thick as ever, which is rather remarkable.
You will be staying with the clan from now on, ” said the Nether Monarch.

He wasn't soliciting Xiang Shaoyun's opinion.
His words were his command.
Nobody could disobey him.
Xiang Shaoyun could feel something deep inside him telling him to obey this person, as though this was what he was meant to do.

But just as he was about to agree, he blurted out his refusal, ”I'm not staying! I'm a human! ”

”Human? You won't stay one for long, ” said the Nether Monarch as a certain power descended upon Xiang Shaoyun.

Xiang Shaoyun couldn't even resist before he was knocked unconscious.
He was then brought to the Imperial Nether Clan's forbidden grounds.
Numerous towering mountains stood in the area, and thick devilish energy constantly drifted about in the air, causing the visibility in the area to be rather low.

On a certain mountain were numerous devil bones.
In fact, this mountain looked more like a mountain of bones and gave off a sinister atmosphere.
Also, a dark cave was on the same mountain, and it was spewing out dreadful devilish energy and a disgusting stench.
A regular person would probably faint immediately from the stench or, at the very least, start vomiting the moment one arrived. 

Xiang Shaoyun was tossed into the cave.

”After leaving this place, you'll no longer be a human, ” muttered the Nether Monarch before vanishing into thin air.

A chilly aura seeped into Xiang Shaoyun's body and awakened him.
He found that he had been thrown into a nest of devils.
Countless leeches were feasting on his flesh and blood, causing him to hiss in pain.

Xiang Shaoyun roared and tried mustering some strength to kill the disgusting leeches, but his strength had been sealed once again.
He couldn't do anything to them.
In fact, he couldn't even use any of his imperial nether abilities either.

His rune, his bloodline, and his abilities seemed to have been locked.
This was a seal that was much more complete than Ming Cigeng's.
Apart from his senses, everything had been sealed away.

Bastard! Xiang Shaoyun cursed inwardly.

Prior to meeting the Nether Monarch, he had thought of death.
However, he had not imagined that he would be tortured like this instead.
This was way too depressing of a way to die.
He could feel his blood draining away from him rapidly.
He couldn't stop it at all.
His skin started withering away, making his handsome face look old.

Anyone would be shocked seeing his current appearance.
Was this still the same heroic and gallant Xiang Shaoyun? He looked more like a dried corpse.
He looked incredibly ugly and seemed to be on his last breath.
Anyone who saw his current appearance would feel distressed on his behalf.

The leeches were basically blood-sucking maggots.
They were reared here by the devils, and every single one had consumed the blood of countless Imperial Nether Clan members.
Thanks to the blood, these leeches had undergone some evolutions as well.

After Xiang Shaoyun had his blood sucked dry, his life force dropped to the very bottom.
He was on the verge of dying.
A regular person's body would fail after losing all blood.
The end result would be death.

For Xiang Shaoyun to still be alive, albeit barely, was already proof of his extraordinary constitution.
Instantly, the leeches scattered in all directions.
A new batch of leeches appeared and crawled all over his body.

Logically, these leeches should have ignored him after sucking him dry of his blood.
For some reason, they were still coming for him.
When they bit him again, they didn't suck his blood.
Instead, they transferred blood into his body.

Most people knew that leeches would consume one's blood, but few knew that they could also infuse one with blood.
All these leeches would die after offering all the blood in their bodies.
Sure enough, all the leeches withered and died after they were done offering Xiang Shaoyun their blood.

A new batch of leeches came and started infusing Xiang Shaoyun with more blood.
All this sounded simple, but it was a long process.
After receiving the blood infusion, the seal on Xiang Shaoyun's body vanished noiselessly.
He regained a sliver of consciousness.
With that little bit of clarity, he circulated his energy and controlled his blood circulation to expedite his recovery.
He found that his blood had turned dark red.
It was basically pure devil blood and was no longer the bright red blood that humans had.

Xiang Shaoyun found it hard to accept this.
He roared, ”Bastard! Why did you do this to me? ”

He did not mind having devil blood in him, but he couldn't accept having only devil blood.
