Divine Seal: I, the Grim Reaper, am kept by the yandere Cai'er.

Chapter 22 The Secret of the Dragon Pill, The Blind Girl's Exclusive God

Back in the hotel room, after locking the door, a barely perceptible ripple spread through the space.

Bai Ye took the opportunity to take over Cai'er's "Shadow of Death" clone.

This body, formed from Cai'er's original power, resembles Cai'er fully grown up, with unparalleled beauty and a noble and mysterious temperament.

Bai Ye controlled his clone to sit down by the bed. With a flick of his wrist, the grayish-brown stone ball that he had bought for 20,000 gold coins appeared in his palm.

Cai'er curiously approached, and although her eyes were covered by a black veil, she could clearly "see" the stone sphere through her mental connection with Bai Ye.

"Bai Ye, what exactly is this thing? Is it worth spending so much money to steal?"

"This is a priceless treasure." Bai Ye tapped the stone skin lightly with his fingertips, a smile playing on his lips. "What's wrapped inside this thick layer of stone skin is a dragon pill."

"Dragon Pill?" Cai'er tilted her head innocently, her delicate face filled with confusion. "What is a Dragon Pill?"

"Dragon Pill is a rare object formed from the unhatched dragon egg that has been buried deep underground for thousands of years, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

Bai Ye patiently explained, "If this thing is consumed by a magical beast, it can instantly grant it pure dragon blood, and may even directly induce a bloodline evolution."

"And if humans take it, the effects are equally astonishing—it can instantly increase a person's internal and external spiritual power by 300 points, and directly raise the upper limit of external spiritual power to the 5,000-point mark!"

"It can be said that even an ordinary person with the worst talent can directly open the path to becoming a seventh-level expert by swallowing this dragon pill."

"hiss--"

After hearing Bai Ye's explanation, Cai'er couldn't help but gasp, her rosy lips slightly parted.

She never imagined that spending only 20,000 gold coins would allow her to find such an extraordinary treasure in a place like Amy City!

If the people at the auction house or other powerful figures from major forces knew this, they would probably be kicking themselves.

"Then...should I eat it now?" Cai'er rubbed her hands excitedly. She was always eager to become stronger.

Bai Ye decisively shook his head: "No. The effects of the Dragon Pill are extremely potent. To fully absorb and digest it, you need a quiet and undisturbed period of time. We'll go to the Holy City to complete the registration first. After that, all participants will have two days of rest. Moreover, since you're already a fifth-tier assassin, according to the selection rules, you'll receive a bye in the first two rounds of elimination. This way, you'll have ample time to go into seclusion and absorb the effects of the pill."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you!" Cai'er nodded obediently and carefully put the Dragon Pill into her storage space.

"Alright, it's getting late, hurry up and go to sleep, we still have to travel tomorrow." Bai Ye instructed, then dispersed his clone and his consciousness returned to Cai'er's spiritual sea.

Cai'er obediently took off her coat, snuggled into the soft quilt, and closed her eyes.

However, much later...

In the dimly lit hotel room, Cai'er tossed and turned on the bed, her empty eyes staring innocently in the darkness.

"Bai Ye..." The girl's soft voice sounded aggrievedly in my mind, "I can't sleep."

"If you can't sleep, get up and meditate," Bai Ye ruthlessly offered a standard "strict teacher's" advice.

Cai'er's little mouth immediately pouted, and she twisted her body in the quilt in dissatisfaction, saying coquettishly, "I don't want to cultivate... I want you to coax me to sleep!"

Within his mind, Bai Ye's lips twitched slightly.

Good heavens, this dignified deity not only has to work as a bodyguard, mentor, and treasure-hunting radar, but now even his business scope has expanded to "sleep-inducing services"?

"Stop fooling around, be good, close your eyes and go to sleep." Bai Ye sighed helplessly.

"I really can't sleep..." Cai'er's voice was soft and sweet, with a hint of mischievous coquetry. "Why don't you come out and sleep with me?"

Bai Ye: "Is this really how it has to be?"

Cai'er was a little excited. She moved aside to make room for Bai Ye, then released her Death God clone and urged, "Quickly, enter my body."

"???"

Bai Ye looked puzzled; what kind of outrageous words were these?

Cai'er, unaware of the ambiguity in her words, urged, "Take over my clone."

Bai Ye sighed, at a loss for what to do.

His divine consciousness entered Cai'er's clone, who lay on the bed. Cai'er snuggled into Bai Ye's arms, and the two identical, stunningly beautiful girls slept in each other's arms.

Cai'er smiled slightly and gradually drifted off to sleep.

The next morning.

A ray of bright sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains onto the headboard.

In the hotel room, two identical Cai'er's were dressed in light purple nightgowns, their four fair and delicate long legs crossed together.

Bai Ye: This damn pose.

"Well……"

Cai'er frowned in dissatisfaction as she slept, because she felt an annoying big hand gently pinching her nose, making it hard for her to breathe.

She waved her little hand groggily, gradually coming to her senses, and mumbled sweetly, "Bai Ye, what are you doing?"

Beside the bed, Bai Ye, who had once again taken over the body of the Grim Reaper, looked at her with doting eyes and chuckled, "Little lazybones, the sun's already high in the sky, time to get up and get going."

Cai'er opened her arms and wrapped them around the neck of Bai Ye's clone. Through Bai Ye's spiritual perception, she clearly "saw" the appearance of the clone Bai Ye was using at this moment—a face similar to hers, but one that had shed all its youthful immaturity and was breathtakingly beautiful.

The girl snuggled against Bai Ye's neck playfully, looking at her future face with a smug smile: "So, I'm this beautiful when I grow up."

Bai Ye was amused by her narcissistic little expression and flicked her smooth forehead in an annoyed tone: "Show-off. Get up now!"

After getting up, washing up, and having a hearty breakfast, Cai'er once again put on her black veil, took her green bamboo staff, and embarked on the final leg of her journey to the holy city.

……

Two days later.

A magnificent and colossal city, like an ancient beast, lies quietly dormant on the vast plain.

This is the most prosperous and central supreme holy land of the entire Holy Temple Alliance—the Holy City!

Following the bustling crowd into the Holy City, Cai'er, with Bai Ye's precise guidance, successfully found the exclusive registration point set up by the Assassin's Temple.

When the high-ranking members of the Assassin's Temple in charge of registration saw the special competition token that Cai'er handed over, and her eyes covered by a black veil, a hint of awe flashed in their eyes.

Without any tedious questioning, the staff quickly completed the registration for Cai'er and respectfully handed her a black number plate engraved with intricate magic patterns.

"Assassin Number One".

Cai'er gently brushed her fingertips over the raised lettering on the number plate and nodded coolly.

Afterwards, under the attentive guidance of the staff, Cai'er turned and left the registration area, heading to the hotel arranged by the Assassin's Temple for top contestants, where she quietly awaited the start of this grand battle of geniuses.
