Chapter 72 : First Set a Small Goal: Become the Demon Clan Saintess
Actually, when Mu Qinglan was first asked to choose the demon clan faction, she was reluctant.
After all, although she was a game player with flexible moral boundaries, she still felt somewhat averse to choosing a foreign race faction.
But thinking it over again.
If even someone without morals like her instinctively rejected the demon clan faction, wouldn't others be even more repulsed?
I have to choose it.
E n_û mâ.і̇ d
The essence of faction confrontation missions wasn't to kill all ceremony participants from the opposing faction, but to help one's own faction achieve victory and make as large a contribution as possible.
So even if all seven ceremony participants chose the human faction, or the demon faction, the ceremony would still proceed normally.

But then she wouldn't have much opportunity to steal the spotlight.
And it would be difficult to get a perfect evaluation.
So after thinking it through, she decided to choose the demon clan faction, oppose the other ceremony participants, and try to create some big plot developments that could change this virtual history and shock the world.
Yes, she was going to make things interesting.

Unlike court spies who were skilled in the way of forbearance.
Ceremony participants feared nothing except being unable to complete their missions and getting low task evaluations.
So as long as Mu Qinglan leaked some information, she naturally wasn't afraid that other ceremony participants wouldn't take the bait.
Everyone come fight me, then I'll defeat you all, then shout some inspirational slogans—wouldn't becoming the demon clan saintess be just around the corner?

Moreover, with me alone against six people, this broken ceremony surely couldn't refuse to give me a decent evaluation.
But, about this demon clan thing...
Е̌ň ŭ m а .і̌ď
'Why is it like this?'
Mu Qinglan sat in her wheelchair, looking down at the white tail hanging behind her, lost in thought.
The tail was beautiful, pure white without a trace of other colors, and the size and length were just right. When Mu Qinglan sat in the wheelchair, it wouldn't touch the ground but would curve up slightly, maintaining about a palm's distance from the floor.
Mu Qinglan carefully felt it out.
This tail wasn't an attachment, but extended from her tailbone, no different from ordinary demon clans.
She breathed a sigh of relief.

Her integrity was preserved.
"Saintess, you're awake."
Mu Qinglan's frequent examination of her own tail after waking naturally didn't escape the attention of the demon clan maid beside her. After a moment of confusion, she asked softly.
"Mm."
The more you do, the more mistakes you make. After lightly nodding, Mu Qinglan leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes to rest.
After another moment, the Human Gate ceremony's mission finally refreshed.

[Main Mission:]

Aside from the main mission changing to making contributions for the faction, the other missions didn't look much different from Mu Qinglan's first Human Gate missions.
Just added hunting opposing faction ceremony participants.
As the Human Gate hints in her vision gradually disappeared, the memories of the characters the ceremony participants were playing also instantly flooded into their minds.
"I am..."
After opening his eyes, the Crown Prince looked in the mirror and saw himself dressed no differently from ordinary demon clan members.
However, he knew he was human.

Just temporarily disguised as these demon clan members through imperial secret techniques and special medicine.
"Have you adapted to your current identity?"
When this voice sounded, only then did the Crown Prince realize there was actually another man dressed like a demon clan member in this room!
"Mm..."
The Crown Prince remembered that he was currently a new spy who had recently infiltrated Canghai City, and the person beside him was the senior who had brought him in.
"Too slow."
Е̊ n̊ ú mа
The senior spy said indifferently:
"To kill these candidate saintesses, why are they even sending ninth-rank newcomers like you?"

"Forget it, if it's just gathering information."
"Besides gathering information, what else can I do?" The Crown Prince was startled and asked.
The spy looked him over: "Kill demons, kill those demons with some status. Ordinary demons don't count. If you can kill any candidate saintess, that would be a great achievement."
"Could multiple spies coordinate to assassinate a saintess together?"
É n̈ùm а̀
The Crown Prince asked.
"After assassinating a saintess, would the participants still be alive?" The spy sneered: "If you can find someone to accompany you, you can try. Unless some particularly talented saintess appears, we won't trade our lives with them."
The Crown Prince was speechless, feeling this faction was somewhat problematic.
He chose the human faction to get help from faction leaders to assassinate demon clan candidate saintesses and see if there were any opposing faction ceremony participants.

But now this line of thinking was cut off.
However, whether something was problematic always required comparison. If the human faction was problematic, wouldn't the demon faction be even worse?
Êṅum̀ӓ.і̃d̈
The ceremony participants in the demon faction had to compete seven-to-one for candidate saintess.
But there were tens of thousands of demon clan members in Canghai City. Several human ceremony participants hidden among these hundreds of thousands of demon clan members were like drops in the ocean—no one could find them.
This was the faction advantage.
At this moment, the Crown Prince was somewhat glad for his choice.
Other ceremony participants probably felt the same, glad they chose the human faction and weren't blinded by the status of demon clan candidate saintess.
Coming back from his thoughts, the Crown Prince found that senior had long since left.

'Good that he's gone.'
The Crown Prince's eyes flickered:.
'The urgent matter now is still to gather intelligence about this place, then contact my two death warriors.'
'With them here, this ceremony will be much easier.'
'Moreover, Canghai City... I should go inquire about the names of the candidate saintesses later. The Qingqiu fox clan's final saintess was Lou Guanyue. If I can kill her, the contribution should be much more than others.'
'Maybe... I can even get a purple destiny trait!'

Thinking this, the Crown Prince's smile gradually became maniacal.
"Xiaowu, get your ass out here and work! Slacking off—do you want a whipping?"

A vigorous voice shouted outside, banging on the door so hard it rattled.
He was a laborer in a trading company who had to work every day.
The Crown Prince's face went through shades of blue and purple before finally forcing out an ugly smile:
"Ah, coming!"

Inside Canghai City.
Mu Qinglan, dressed in white robes, rapidly digested her current situation in her mind.
Her current identity was called Lou Qing, one of the twenty-plus demon clan candidate saintesses, and also a pure-blood Qingqiu fox clan member.

Average talent, unremarkable reputation.
To ensure fair selection, each candidate saintess was only accompanied by one eighth-rank maid, plus a group of ordinary demon clan members at their disposal.

Standing beside her was her maid, Xiao Zi.
"Miss, the city lord's mansion reports that another batch of human spies has recently infiltrated Canghai City. Please be very careful."
"Moreover, these people seem to be targeting the saintesses."
"I'm worried they might harm you, Miss. Would you like to hide for a few days?"
From a normal saintess's perspective, worrying about assassination and staying indoors for a while was quite reasonable.
But unfortunately, Mu Qinglan wasn't a normal saintess.

The opportunity has come! New human spies—they're probably the identities of the human faction. I need to find them one by one and then kill them!
Mu Qinglan cackled coldly in her heart.
Suddenly, she turned to look at Xiao Zi:
"Do you have information on the human spies?"
"?"
Seeing her miss's intense gaze, Xiao Zi was stunned, saying with difficulty: "The spies' identities are well hidden. If we knew them, they'd probably already be on the city lord's wanted list."
Е̃.n u̇ m̄ а̂
"Then get me that wanted list."
Mu Qinglan said indifferently.

What does Miss want the wanted list for?
Xiao Zi was confused, feeling that Miss seemed different from before after waking up, but her duty as a saintess attendant made her agree.
"Are you curious?"
Xiao Zi didn't react.

"It doesn't matter if I tell you."
The girl sitting in the wheelchair slowly extended her right hand, curved her five fingers, and clenched them tightly:
"I'm going to catch all these fish that slipped through the net. Then, kill them.
With this, I'll make that inspector notice me, then rise to the position of saintess in one stroke."

With her voice, the shadows behind the wheelchair slowly writhed like some slime monster, gradually expanding outward.
Xiao Zi's expression changed slightly, wondering what kind of demon magic this was.
W е̄b n оve l E n̊ ům̃ ȧ
"This is my destiny trait. Its effect is controlling shadows."
Mu Qinglan squinted her eyes.
She dared to openly use her own spells for a reason.
There was a setting in faction wars.
Although the path she cultivated wasn't the demon clan way, no matter what professional skills she displayed in the Human Gate ceremony, they wouldn't doubt her demon clan identity—they would only think her demon magic mastery was extraordinary.
So to facilitate her actions, she had to first demonstrate some strength to gain their trust.

"Destiny trait?"
Xiao Zi was stunned for a moment, then somewhat delighted: "You mean you're already eighth rank?"
"Mm."
"Then your desire to become saintess really isn't without hope!" Xiao Zi nodded.
She pondered:
"Although there are others in the other cities with talent equal to yours, they have no achievements. If Miss can accomplish great deeds..."
W̌ еb̃ n̈ о́ v е l̇ Ê n̄ u m а
"Does killing human spies count as great deeds?" Mu Qinglan asked.
"It does! Your talent is indeed very high, but... wouldn't this be too dangerous?"

"No, not dangerous."
Mu Qinglan's voice was calm, her every gesture carrying strong confidence!
If there were real assassins, she might be cautious to some degree, but at this time, those daring to attempt assassinating her were definitely those human faction examinees who had just entered the Human Gate ceremony.
Just ninth rank—what did she have to fear?

"Do as I say, go outside and find two people to spread the word..."
Mu Qinglan leaned back in her wheelchair, giving orders indifferently.
Xiao Zi sighed inwardly but had to obey.

At dusk, a man left several coded marks on the street in the southern part of Canghai City.
The marks were inconspicuous.
Еṅ ü må ..іd
But someone had received special training for this—upon leaving, their eyes would involuntarily glance there and naturally see those traces.
'Skyreach Tower's code…'
At the alley entrance, a gray-robed figure stood in the shadows, quietly staring at the inconspicuous mark in the corner of the street.
After a long while, confirming no one was paying attention,
She walked over, as if just passing by normally, and casually erased it with her shoe tip.
'How could there be Skyreach Tower codes in the Human Gate ceremony?'
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
Zhu Yan frowned in confusion.
Could it be that Skyreach Tower remnants had entered the Human Gate ceremony?
But even if they entered the Human Gate, there was no need to leave marks here. This was, after all, a demon clan city, and Skyreach Tower only operated around the capital and in the prefectural cities of the four regions.
Who else could see them?
"'More than one person from Skyreach Tower? Death warriors have no reason to work together... then they must be trying to protect someone.'
Zhu Yan's eyes focused:

'The Crown Prince?'
She wasn't certain her guess was correct, but she felt there was a significant possibility. Skyreach Tower's assembly code, plus the Crown Prince was also ninth rank...

Regardless, she'd know by going to look.
Zhu Yan made her decision.
'I'm proficient in shadow movement techniques and skilled in escape arts. Even if they really discover something wrong with me, escaping shouldn't be difficult.'
Having decided, Zhu Yan didn't immediately head to the destination.
Е.ṅŭ m̃ä
The appointed time was midnight.
There was still considerable time.
She first went to another street, found the mark there, erased it without drawing attention, then left to look for the next mark.
Within two hours, all the mysterious person's marks had been eliminated.

Night fell.
Stars dotted the sky.
W éb n о̂ v ѐ l Еn u ḿа̊
The Crown Prince stood in an alley not far from a prominent building in the southern part of the city, expressionless.
Moonlight shone on the nearby street.
Demon clans rarely had curfews like human cities because many of them preferred to be active at night, though these people didn't even amount to ten or twenty percent of the total, so the streets were still empty.
Tap, tap.
Footsteps suddenly sounded nearby.
The Crown Prince glanced sideways—it was a mysterious person covered completely in a gray robe.

But considerably shorter than him.
After glancing at the gray-robed figure, the Crown Prince withdrew his gaze, not rushing to give the code word. The gray-robed person also didn't approach, just stood at a distance as if admiring the moonlight.
After waiting a long while, the Crown Prince frowned slightly.
He wanted to wait a bit more to see if anyone else would come to respond to the code, but after so long with no one coming, presumably no one else would.
"Plucking stars as chess pieces..."
"The world as the board." The gray-robed person calmly responded.
W е́ b̈ nоv̊е́l È n̄.ũ m а
"Follow me."
The Crown Prince quickly led the way, and the two entered a small courtyard before the Crown Prince finally relaxed.

"Where's the other person?"
The gray-robed figure thought for a moment. Seeing his previous actions, he probably wasn't trying to trick her, so she shook her head.
"I didn't see them."
"Tsk, is Canghai City really too big? Scattered everywhere, it's indeed difficult to gather in one day." The Crown Prince sat in a chair.
Е̃ ǹ u̇ m̌ а̇.іd̊
"I'll go find her."
The Crown Prince glanced at her and shook his head: "We'll discuss that tomorrow. You also chose the human faction, right? Do you have anything to report?"
The gray-robed figure briefly described the job assignment process and shook her head lightly.
"All the same..."

The Crown Prince's expression was cold, his extremely bad mood from becoming a servant improving slightly:
"You go back. Come find me again tomorrow when you have time. Don't let anyone discover you."
Ẇ е́ b n о̆v̆ĕ l̂ Ѐ n̈ u mӑ
"Yes, Your Highness."
The gray-robed figure bowed lightly but didn't immediately leave.
"Why are you still here?"
"Understood."
The person hidden in the gray robe trembled slightly all over, muscles tensing, then bowed her head and respectfully withdrew.
As soon as she left, she began running frantically.

Only after returning to the courtyard did she suppress the killing intent that was about to burst forth and erupt in violence. She raised her head, silver teeth nearly grinding to pieces, then relaxed and opened her clenched knuckles.
"Someone who can be called 'Your Highness'..."
Zhu Yan faced the moonlight and slowly closed her eyes.
After a long while, she slowly exhaled a cold breath through gritted teeth.
Gripping her dagger tightly.
"Hah..."
