The Evolution Compendium

「Three days later.」

「Princess's Mansion.」

Thick gray mist floated gently like clouds in the mansion, faint whispers of Evil Gods emanating.

Inside a dimly lit hall, pearls were inlaid, and flowers grew wildly, their branches and leaves dense, all blooming and suffusing the air with a hint of fresh floral scent.

At this moment, layers of veils drifted, and beaded curtains scattered with a pleasant sound.

Dim light flickered, casting shimmering shadows through the curtains, as if a dance of demons was unfolding.

Disheveled clothes—skirts, undergarments, black robes, and exquisite ornaments—hung on the delicate branches of the overgrown flowers, which swayed gently.

After a while, tranquility finally returned to the hall.

A young man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes sat on a seat carved from cold jade, breathing heavily. An intense spiritual energy surged from within him, coursing through his limbs, tempering his internal organs, and nurturing his essence and Divine Soul.

Silver!

After a fierce bout of Cultivation, he had forcibly broken through to a higher realm, successfully advancing to the Silver Realm!

Ordinarily, progressing from Red Copper to Silver is a challenge that would halt most low-level Beast Tamers. Even geniuses need to seek opportunities.

However, Chu Yi, with his deep foundation and a series of fortuitous encounters, coupled with the Deceit Beast's assistance, managed to reach the Silver Realm within just a few days. Everything had fallen into place.

"Just right," Chu Yi thought with delight. "After advancing to Silver, the Deceit Beast can also enter the next stage of evolution."

It had only been about a week since he unlocked the evolution guide.

He had gone from an ordinary man with no strength to speak of—literally, no power to bind a chicken—to Unyielding Silver in a flash. This speed was extremely rare in the Federation, even across the entire world.

For such a thing to happen, one would typically have to be the offspring of deities and demons, or perhaps the reincarnation of a great power—someone of incredibly significant origin.

At this time, a faint moan rippled out.

The bedding beside the bed rustled as a cascade of messy silver hair spread out like moonlight.

The woman was sleeping with her eyes closed, her long, thick eyelashes like drifting snowflakes dotted with dewdrops that shimmered like stars.

After a while, her eyes slowly opened, a mixture of struggle and joy flashing across them, clear yet bewildered.

The dim light illuminated a face of cold beauty. Yet, at this moment, it was like the pure snow of spring or the fine grape wine from the Western Border, revealing a soft blush and exuding a gentle charm.

Her cheeks were flushed, her cherry lips slightly parted. Strands of hair, damp with fragrant sweat, clung to her snowy cheeks, enhancing her delicate charm.

Noticing the Princess awakening, Chu Yi was not flustered. In fact, he quite liked the Princess's voice—it was melodious and pleasing.

After a long time, the Moon Princess's eyes finally cleared. Staring at Chu Yi, her gaze was as icy as millennial black ice, though a hint of joyful color flashed within it occasionally.

"Sir, aren't you going to give an explanation?" she asked.

Her tone was frosty, and an immense killing intent swept out, causing the temperature in the entire hall to plummet. The air grew frigid, as if moonlight itself had turned to frost and swept through.

"Princess, if you recall carefully, I was forced."

Chu Yi was silent for a moment, a scoundrel's smirk playing on his lips as he planned to shift the blame to the Evil Gods. "This is a trick left by the Desire Mother Goddess," he said. "I am also very sorry, but..."

BOOM—

Her arm, white as snow, her five fingers tightly clenched. A punch like a White Lotus stopped just before Chu Yi's forehead, the frenzied air currents blowing away a patch of gray mist.

Chu Yi's expression changed.

It wasn't because he was afraid of her, but because the Moon Princess had rushed over so directly. From this angle, her fist looked really big.

Too fierce.

The anger he had just suppressed flared up again.

"Since things have already happened, I'll give you two choices."

The Moon Princess stood tall, her silky silver hair like satin covering half of her delicate body, issuing commands like a queen.

On her pure white forehead, as her divine eyes probed, a purple flower imprint emerged. It exuded a world-destroying, doomsday aura, causing the entire hall to tremble. Turbulent winds surged, and the very air seemed unable to bear its pressure!

"One, between you and me, only one can survive."

The purple flower shimmered, releasing a hazy halo that pulsed with a terrifyingly destructive power.

Chu Yi's mouth twitched. Though he had foreseen this with the Prophecy of Time, he still felt a wave of dread.

There was no doubt. This 'boon,' once launched, would erase everything in existence!

"Two, become my fiancé. During each full moon, you must accompany me for three days."

The Moon Princess slightly opened her red lips, unperturbed by the second choice she had offered, her gaze cold as she stared at Chu Yi.

What?

Could there really be such a good deal?

Chu Yi hesitated. Pies don't just fall from the sky; this had to be a trap.

Seeing his silence, in the next moment, a scarlet moon materialized in the air. Countless chaotic shadows writhed beneath it, and the purple flower on her forehead swayed, locking onto Chu Yi, ready to unleash its 'boon'.

Chu Yi immediately came to his senses. He glanced at the Moon Princess's graceful figure and her breathtakingly beautiful face, then pretended to be a victim under threat.

"I choose number two! Please spare my life, Your Highness!"

He had to be practical. The Moon Princess was a peak Dawn Star Beast Tamer, incredibly powerful. As a newly advanced Silver, how could he possibly resist her?

Though he felt somewhat apologetic to Lias... he was forced into this!

However... Chu Yi vowed internally. Even if you obtain my body, you will never win my heart! Ehehehe...

"HMPH."

The Moon Princess snorted adorably, retracted the boon, and her waist, like a willow branch in spring, twisted as she went to bathe.

But after only a few steps, she frowned slightly. Every movement sent a pang of soreness through her soft, tender legs, forcing her to take small, hesitant strides.

She turned her head slightly, giving Chu Yi a displeased glance. Then, controlling a force field, she floated, her feet not touching the ground, moving with the grace of a Fairy.

Chu Yi watched her back with appreciation.

In the next moment, a force enveloped him. Before he could react, he was swiftly pulled towards a pool of water.

...

In the underground world, the backbones of countless organizations were cleared out.

The Faceless Association, Deceit Stab, Dragon Slayer, and other forces suffered grievous losses. The Faceless Association, due to offending the King of Black Robes and suffering heavy casualties, directly collapsed and disbanded.

The president ran off with his sister-in-law.

He left behind a pile of debts and a group of executives stuck with assets they could only sell at a loss, all of them cursing the president as inhuman.

And as time passed, the Joyful Sect suffered a heavy blow. The major events surrounding the Desire Mother Goddess could no longer be suppressed and were finally leaked.

Suddenly, the major forces that received this information were all shocked, as the event involved far too many people.

The Joyful Church, the King of Black Robes, and the Moon Princess—three factions locked in overt and covert confrontations.

Desire Mother Tree...

Mysterious banquet...

The King of Black Robes playing both sides...

The Desire Mother Goddess's will descending...

The King of Black Robes enslaving the Evil God's Favored, warring against the Desire Mother Tree...

The series of plots was full of twists and turns, with each faction revealing their hidden cards, leaving onlookers marveling at the sheer drama.

And various versions of these events began to circulate.

In this battle, the King of Black Robes had clearly played an extremely important role!
